Driver. Va, Juno 9.-Hon. j. D. Egg
lesion, state Superintendent of Public
Instruction, delivered the address boz
for the graduating class of the Agri-
cultural High School at Driver Friday
night. Mr.. Eggleston talked on Indus
trial education before an unusually
large and Interested audience. owing
to an accident on the Norfolk and
Western Railroad, Mr.. EgEleston was
delayed several hours. but tho audi
cnce was entertained i'll the mean
time with the class exercises of the
graduates.
This was Mr.. Eggleston's flrst visit
to Driver, and the people were en-
thusiastic in their reception. An UNI
usual feature was the rendering by
the audience of rising vote of thanks
TO the speaker.
The diplomas were delivered by the
principal. ]. Il. l.. DeJarnette, to the
following graduates: James Artnir,
Mary Lee Beamon, Hinton Darden.
Vernon Eberwlne, Alfred Harrcll,

Ames and Henry Carney won prizes
for leading the Junior class In scholar
ship. Hinton Darden won the prize
offered by the agricultural director
for botany work, and Henry Carney
won the agriculture also afcred by.
Mr.. Blandford.
a unique feature of the personnel
OF the class was the fact that there
were seven boys to graduate and only
two girls. Usually the girls form tho
majority of those graduating from
high school, because the boys lose
Interest and drop out to go 10 work.
The large proportion OF boys to girls
III this class is probably due 20 tho
fact that these boys all take agr,cul-.
ture, and are interested in their work
because II is real and practical, and not
useless and theoritical, as much high

DEATH OF JACOB BROWN.
Lawyer Who Had Practiced Under
Four Constitutions of MARYLAND.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CUMBERLAND, Md, October 70
Jacob Brown. nestor Of the Allegany
county bar. publicist and author, died
last night at 1915 o'clock at his home, 81
Polk street, after an illness of several
weeks. Mr.. Brown would have been
eighty-nin years of age April next
Until a few weeks ago he continued in
the practice Of his profession. that Of the
law. He recovered sufficiently from a
severe attack several months ago to per-
NIT his being on the streets. but the ap-
parent convalescence was of short dura-
ton.
Mr.. Brown was the youngest of clever
children and was born on the old Brown
farm in what is now Garrett county.
When sixteen years Of age he met with
an accident on the farm which cost him
his right arm. He then abandoned the
ambition of his boy hood, which was to be
a carpenter. and became a law student.
He was admitted to the bar in 1919. For
a time he attended Washington and JEFF
ferson College at Washington, Pa. where
he met James @. Blaine.
1t is a noteworthy fact that Mr.. Brown
practiced law under four constitutions in
Maryland-1776, 1850, 1864 and 1867. TWEEN
ty judges came and went in this circuit
during the legal activities Of Mr.. Brown.
He was a great friend Of the old soldier
and was very active in procuring PEN
sons for soldiers and soldiers widows.
He was identified with the republican
party, though conservative in his views.
Mr.. Brown was prolific writer and
frequent contributor to the press. He
contributed largely to the perpetuation
of the annals of both Garrett and Allie
gany counties. Browns Miscellaneous
Writings published in 1896. is most
valuable handbook of family and local
historical records. His story of the old
national pike published I'm this book Is of
unusual interest. Mr.. Browns recollec-
lions, put In writing. covered a wide
range Of history, biography, politics. civic
matters folk lore and Other subjects.

CONDOR OF UNITED STATES.
Larger Than Andes Bird-Its Swift,
Graceful Flight.
From the Youths Companion.

FROM the Youths Companion.
IT is not generally known that we have
condor in the United States, Yet there
is one on the Pacific coast that in weight
and spread of wing surpasses all other
birds From tip to tip of wing 1T meas
ures more than ten feet-considerably
more than the condor OF the Andes and
about yard more than the largest eagle
or swan.
This condor is black tinged with brown,
except under the wings. where there is "A
long narrow strip of almost pure white
running the whole length of the wing ana
widening near the body. 1t has no ruff
around the neck. but a fringe of long
narrow black feathers on the back of the
neck gives il savage appearance. Il
nests among the rocks in lofty cliffs lay
ing several white eggs much lar.er than
those of the turkey or goose. From 49,,
to 1888 condors were so abundant IL,
southern California that L used TO See
them Almost every day, but now they ara
found only in the wilder mountains. Their
eggs bring 500 each in the larger mu-
seums of the country.
If an animal is sick or disa bied the con-
dor rarely hesitates to attack il, and its
fate is soon sealed if il is not strong
enough to defend itself or escape its
enemy.
Like the condor OF the Andes, that %
California will so gorge itsef with food
quick dash Of a good horse. A friend Of
mine at San Jacinto had one that had
been caught in that way. But although he
had thousands OF sheep and cattle, no
had to give the bird away, because he
could not afford to feed it. 1t would eat
a whole sheep at a meal and then look
hungry and sad. If it We're badly
treated.
Standing on the ground at a distance.
this great bird looks much like a big
black Newfoundland dog sitting up for
a cracker. but in the air IL surpasses n
grace and variety of action every other
of the skies. The whooping
crane, that floats like a speck Of down
in the remotest blue; the frigate bird.
whose wing seems never made to fold.
even the afbatross. are all clumsy and
compared with the condor
Ii travels in a series OF winding lines in
which symmetry and grace always gov
ern the boldest sweeps of the highest
bursts of speed.
