example worthy of emulation. Mr.. Wend-
ling told of Lees tender care OF his in
valid mother and of how she would sit
quietly in her easy chair gazing steadfast-
ly at the door through which he had left
the home, when. a youth. he went to
school, and the CLEAN OF satisfaction
which would fit across her face when he
would re-enter after the studies of the
day.
The lecturer told of Lees career at
West Point. of his exemplary conduct
with never a demerit, upon his gradua-
ton second in his class. He called par
ticular attention to the fact that the
men of the northern cause. including such
leaders as Gems. Grant and Meade. count
ed themselves fortunate to have the
friendship of Lee. and that upon every oc-
casion they did all in their power to make
his lot easier after the civil war had
closed.
Gen. Viscount wolseIey. great field mar
shall of the English army. Mr.. Vending
recited, said of Lee that he was q matchless
soldier and one of the greatest men he
had ever seen. and that Wolseley had
come in contact with Bismarck and Moltke
and other great soldiers and statesmen.
The lecturer declared that the time 10
coming when the northland will rise up
and acknowledge the greatness OF Lee.
and that time is not far distant.
Hilary a. Herbert, formerly Secretary
of the Navy. presided and introduced Mr..
Vending. The lecture was given for the
benefit of the fund to raise a monument
in Arlington cemetery to the memory of

Manufacturer Of Numbering Press
Sued by Rival.

Sued by Rival.
Justice Barnard Of the District Supreme
Court today enjoined until further order
the Potter Printing Press Company from
infringing certain patents of the Harris
Automatic Press Company. The de-
fendant noted an appeal.
The injunction grows out of a suit by
the Harris company in which it complains
that its chance was jeopardized to secure
the contract from the bureau of printing
and engraving to install presses which
will seal. number and trim bank notes in
one operation.
The Harris company set up press at
the bureau, as did also the Potter COM
pany. It Is alleged that the latter COM
pany's press did not have a certain con-
trivance attached which corrected errors
in feeding automatically.
When the defendant saw this ADVANTAGE,
it Is alleged. its agent attempted to cor
rect the alleged defect in its press by
adopting cUntrivance which, 1t is claim
ed, violates the patent rights Of the Har-
ris company.
Attorney ]. Nota McGir represents the
complainant and Attorney F. B. Brock
appears for the defendant.
