CATTLEMAN KILLS SELF

w. L. Moffit, wealthy farmer OF
Sierra Valley. California, who has a
large cattle ranch two and a-half
miles from Vinton, killed himself
Thursday night by shooting himself
in the right side with a .3S-calibrc
revolver, the bullet passing entirely
through the body.
Surgical aid was summoned and an
operation performed to stop the in
ternal bleeding, but without avail.
The patient grew steadily weaker
and expired at 2:30 this morning.
His domestic relations were pleas
ant and he was in the very prime of
life. aged between IS and 80 years.
The deceased was apparently in
the best of health and spirits and
there was seemingly no reason tor
taking his own life.

Nc Kim Suit
is Returned

The Supreme Court yesterday
handed down decision in the Nc
Kim divorce matter. Mrs. Mckim
applied for divorce in the Reno
courts. Her husband blocked the
move by applying for writ Of man
date against the District Court, set
ting up that the lady was not bona
fide resident of this state. The SUI
preme Court in its decision reviews
the case thoroughly and virtually
leaves the case where it started, as
the writ asked for is denied and the
case remanded back to the Washoe
County Court, where it will probably
be heard on its merits.
The Reno Journal states that Smith
Mckim will now endeavor to take
the matter up in the U. 5. District
Court. in which event there is no
telling where it will land.

Learning and Education.

Governor Manns preaChment overtaxing the
school children has been heartily approved fby
several of the State newspapers.
II am not educator, modcstly observed the
Governor, but passing along the roads in the country
children going to school have too many books, and
a distinguished professor from our University, in
lecture delivered in of our Virginia cities some
month ago, said that it would be better not to tax
the children with SO many studies, which, after all,
cause confusion and result in smattering of many
things, and clear understanding of nothing, but to
teach them few branches thoroughly. This is
not intended a criticism, but as a suggestion,
which, am e,w be acted on il deemed valuable. "
The fact is that the opinion is far too prevalent
that education means learning and that the more a
child can be stuffed with learning the better it is
educated
But education does not mean learning It means
training and learning is only process a means to
an end.
True, it is necessary for pupil to acquire knowl-
edge, to learn to read and write and cipher" to
learn geography, history, literature and the like,
and it is well to go and on in an advanced course
OF study. But the process should be gradual and
the exercises conservative, so that the mental
faculties may be developed and not cwarfed by
too much exercise.
Much that we learn in school is forgotten after
we grow up and get into the activities of life But
the mental training which one receives in the
process OF learning is abiding and a continuing
advantage

district or town or city may think concerning the
question of public schools, the Constitution has de-
clared that the system should be established
throughout the State.
Furthermore, the Constitution goes so far as to
declare that the General Assembly may in its dis
erection provide for the compulsory education OF
children between the ages OF eight and twelve.
And furthermore it has not been very long ago, I'M
less memory is III error, since the 1lmes-D Dispatch
advocated the passage of compulsory education
law, What is such a law, but Statewide Proh-
bition of the Vice OF Ignorance?
The laws of Virginia recognize no county or city
option concerning epidemic of smallpox. The
State authorities take it in hand and the State laws
control it and suppress it, regardless OF whether the
county authorities favor their action. What are
the quarantine laws but a State-Wid Prohibition
Of the spread OF viruent and deadly diseases,
But il it is right that the people of the State as
whole should pass Statewide laws concerning
physical and intellectual disease, then the people
of the State as whole have right to pass State
Wide laws concerning the liquor traffic, which
affects the physical the intellectual and the moral
life of the people Of the State
Saloons in one-fourth Of the State do affect all
of the State, and unless communication is to be
restricted and the youth Of the "dry" territory is
to be forbidden to enter the wet territory. and
the liquor dealers in wet territory are forbidden
to ship their goods into dry" territory the three
fourths of the State that is dry has great deal
Of interest in the eaefouEth that is wet greater
interest than it has in compulsory education law.
and greater interest than it has in quarantine
law, for these two relate to the physical and intel
lestual only, while the liquor traffic touches the
physical, the intellectual and the moral life also.
The Virginian declares again that the people
have the right to settle this question to them
shall seem best
The present issue is shall the General Assembly
give the people the opportunity to settle it2 That
question should be determined by the people
themselves expressing their wishes to their repre-
sentatives in person, by letter and by petition.

A Remarkable Law.

Some of our readers may have been puzzled to
know by what provision OF law young Mr.. Tillman
conveyed his children to his parents At any rate
we were puzzled but have since learned that there
is law in South Carolina which allows husband
to take his minor children from his wife and make
them over to any person whom he may select
That would be an extraordinary statute in any
State it is especially SO in State which has such
high regard for family integrity that ii does not
permit divorce upon any ground and has no divorce
laws
However, the Tillman incident has drawn public
attention to the matter, and bill has been intro
duced in the Legislature to repeal the statute. We
hope it will pass. 1t to be cruel and in
human that father who has separated from his
wife is allowed by law take his children from their
mother who is able and competent to rear them and
bind them over to others.

The Mendelssolin Anniversary.

In celebrating the one hundred and
first anniversary OF the birth of Felix
Mendelssohn- Bartholdy his admirers
In the music world find themselves
wishing that he might have been
spared long enough TO perfect his art
and nature Ms grestness.
Born in Hamburg of German
parents, he showed his wonderful
talent for music at six years of age
and played in public at nine. From
that time he began his compositions
and wrote music for the violin as
we'll an for the piano. His overture
to Shakespeare Midsummer Night
Dream was his first masterpiece ana
1t was received in England with un-
bounded admiration. He painted pic
lures of his own life In his compost
tons and immertaliSed- -fnusie-ot
the Scottish Highlands in his SYM
phonies His orateries are wonder
full examples of his divine art, and
his songs without words are so ex-
pressiye as to reveal the innermost
depths of the wonderful personality
of the man, who was one of the most
beloved characters in all musical his
torx.L
His affection for his sister Heurel.
and his devotion to his art became
his life and after her death ne lost
his inspiration and never rallied,
dying at the early age of thirty-eight
years, before he had reached his
goal.
We are left % believe that If he had
lived he would have attained 10
dramatic intensity in his oratories,
and made great contribution TO
the lyrical drama, While his COM
positions are written with q view 10
the scope and character of the In
strument, there is beauty of senti-
ment under all his dramatic ciimaxes,
in both theme and accompaniment.
