John Lamb lost his vote by reason of
failure to get transfer within the pre-
scribed time, and other prominent men
were in the same boat.
Since North Carolina went dry there
has been an exodus Of the people en-
gagged in the liquor business from that
state to Virginia. The laws of this state
provide that no person other than a
qualified voter can get license to do
business here. The newcomers have
formed companies and gotten charters to
do business. They have managed to get
licenses, and the question is now being
raised if 1t is competent for corporations
to do what is denied to citizens in their
private capacity.
In other words, can q corporation get a
license when the men composing the cor
poration are not all qualified voters? In
some instances the men in the companies
have gotten permits to do business but
they have managed to get some person
in the city or state to unite in forming
the company, and in that way they are
being permitted to do what private citi-
zens were prohibited from doing. The
matter is to be brought to the attention
Of the courts. and some of the concerns
may have to retire from business
In one case a North Carolina firm
bought out a local man, paying him "a. 800
for his license, and 1t was transferred to
the North Carolina men. 1t is held that
this is equivalent to granting a man Ii
cense to do business when they come
from another state, and at the same time
denies the people of this state the same
thing. There are dozen or more of
these concerns In this city and Norfolk.

Asleep on the Beat.
rom tho RuffalO FYnrpas

The president of the Chicago board of
education is one Otto C. Schneider. Mr..
Schneider has recently been quoted as
saying that foot ball, base ball and Ameri-
can sports in general have become a
disease. Our system of sports in the
high schools" he said. lis anything but
educational. Indeed. foot ball and base
ball. as they are played, have reached a
point where they have become a disease
in our schools. The games make heroes
out Of a dozen boys and leave the rest
of the school to occupy the seats In the
amphitheater. The youngsters that do
the playing are taught that they are bet
ter men than their fellows and if they
manage to beat a team from another
school. as they are urged to do by hook
or by crook. they are exalted like demi-
gods
Ask any high school boy or girl in the
land what he or she thinks of such SEN
timent and the answer is that Mr. Schnei-
de- is a dead one or that he is a back
number or that he is asleep on the beat
Most assuredly. There was a time. of
course, when high schools were main
tanned solely for other purposes, but that
was in the long ago. And whoever heard
anything about high schools In those
days? How many persons could tell the
names Of the high schools or their stand
ing or what they amounted to or any
thing of that sort? How different are
the conditions today.

Virginia Pilots Move.

The Virginia Pilot Association, which
recently had the laws of the state pertain

have lost a little money as a result of
the change. but they are now in better
position than before. There is no longer
license tax on coasting vessels. The
Virginia pilots were important factors in

LONG INcRoYABLE COAT.
Picturesque Garment Purloined
From Directoire Style.

From the Delineator.
One of the most picturesque garments
which has been purloined from the old.
time directorate style is the long incroy-
able coat that reaches quite to the bottom
OF the gown. 1t Is entirely different from
the straight, shapeless cutaway coats that
have been worn during the last two sea-
sons, for 1t has body and skirt like, and
yet most unlike, the redingote. It has
the empire waistline and straight, rather
closely fitting skirt. while the most mark
edly incroyable features are the exagger-
ated revers and small sleeves with a line
OF buttons from elbow to wrist.
A coat of this kind, which was the
chef d'ouvre of a famous house. was in
dull sandstone colored cloth lined with
deep iris purple. The upper part of the
coat was narrow shouldered and rather
close fitting. The front crossed a little
above the waist line. bringing together
two enormous revers of the cloth faced
with purple satin and trimmed with dull
gold buttons and heavy satin-covered cord
There was a high standing collar Of the
cloth faced with satin. as well as narrow
cuffs of the same at the wrist of the
small, close sleeve that buttoned to the
elbow with gold buttons and buttonholes
