ELIOT
 VISITS TALLADEGA

Talladega, March 12-(Special)-A cold rain from the north disarranged the we'll laid plans of entertaining President Charles W. Eliot, that had been prepared by Hon. and Mrs Cecil Browne yes terday afternoon. Originally it was sched- ued that President Eliot was to spend the night in Talladega, but MT. Atkinson wired later that only portion of the ait ernoon could be devoted to Talladega- The party selected by the Talladega host and hostess to meet the Eliot party and con duct them in carriages to the various educa tional institutions and points of in terest about the Bridge of the Noun tains' consisted of Mrs. Browne, Presi- dent Eliot, Dr. Samuel Welch and We'll ington Vandiver in carriage Noi l; Mrs. Eliot Mrs. Harry Atkinson, Capt. T. s. Plowman and H. L. McElderry in the sec ond carriage; w H. Boynton, H. M. Att kinson, Cecil Browne, Alex Bonnyman and G. w Matteson in the third carriage. Upor the arrival of the special a cold north rain was falling and it was thought better for the health of President Eliot to hold a reception in the car. MT Alex bonnyman presented the visitors and MT. and Mrs Cecil Browne introduced the local visitors who called to pay their rs spects President Eliot was much inter- ested in the Indian history of falladega, especially in a bit of history of DeSoto's visit as related to him by Wellington-Nan- diver;- and when told that thousand Indians, dressed in white and singing, met the gallant Spaniard at Coosa the capital of the beautiful kingdom of the same name 20 miles from where the car Was then standing. he smiled and said to Mir.

uine university spirit the sort that de- mands freedom of truth, freedom in po- litical institutions and an active hard versity is to establish, unfy and enlghten the free institutions the country needs.
 Recently the board of administrators of Tulane raised it's standard to the level of the highest in the land. their desire being to give the south an institution of the very best character. To this end additional ground space has been ob- tained, additional buildings are to be built, the faculty has been greatly strengthened, and at the suggestion of Dr. Eliot, a movement has been started to create board of overseers'' to be elected by the alumni and to exercise the same sort of control a similar board has so successfully exercised at Harvard. On this subject Dr. Eliot said: Harvard university, long established in Boston and Cambridge, has for century been & great power in building up the com monwealth of Massachusetts and the cities of Massachusetts. You can do the same here if you the alumni will put your shoulders to the wheel, and if the business men of New Orleans and Louis lana will appreciate the opportunity or building here a strong rich and free uni- versity."
 The truth of Dr. Eliots statement Is all the more striking when one remem- bers that because of its universities and schools Massachusetts enjoys the best laws of any state in the union, and suf- fers least from those handicaps upon comfort, pleasure and profit that follow in the wake of partial enlightenment.
