Upon DR.. Pelrs resignation she was
elected president and for IL years

standing and have given it distinc-
ton. an individuality all it's oWn-an
atmosphere of refinement and OF high

Record of Expansion.

When Miss McCliptock first became
lady principal in 1895. the total en-.
ollment at the college was 80. Last
year the pupils numbered 80, Two
handsome new buildings have been
erected during Miss McClintock's ad-
ministration to answer the increasing
demands made upon the college and
to meet it's growth in every depart
ment. McClintock hall, which con-
tains the culinary department and
Gormitories and Alumnae hall, named
to signalize the gift Of $1,000, the nest
egg of the fund for it's erection, do
mated by Miss Mary Haskell, Of Marl-
boro stret, Boston, member of the
first class 1892 graduated from the
college. This building provides II
large, modern class rooms, gymnas-
ium and an astronomical observatory
In addition to these the college, for
the last few years, has been renting
nearby cottages for teachers resi-
dences and music studios.
But not alone in material sense
has the expansion of the college been
marked. The progressive woman at
its head has kept it abreast of the
times, raising the standard of scholar
ship as steadily as practicable and so
impressing the students with the
value to themselves and to the col
lege of taking the full courses OF
study, that the number of "speciaP
students is gradually decreasing and
today the students taking regular
courses outnumber them, fact which
educators regard as significant in the
South.

TO JAIL FOR A FEATHER.
A Wealthy American Woman Put to
Hard Labor in Bermuda.

Convicted Of stealing a feather
worth 26 cents, Mrs Elizabeth L.
Brown, wife of Evan Middletown
Brown, of Bayshore, N. Y, is serving
a months sentence at hard labor in
prison here
The American colony is very much
perturbed on account Of the arrest, as
it is declared that the conviction was
obtained upon the fimsiest evidence.
The Browns came to Bermuda sew
eral months ago and leased one OF the
most expensive cottages. Mr.. Brown
had been i'll and they told acQuaint-
ances that they had determined to
make a lengthy stay on account of his
health.
Mrs. Brown attracted admiration
because she was one of the most
comely and best-dressed women on
the island.
A great deal of mystery surrounds
her arrest, conviction and sudden SEN
tence. She went to a store in the ear
ly morning three weeks ago and
bought some black grass. She decided
to take it home on approval, and when
the salesgirl was wrapping it up and
making out the check another girl re-
ported that Mrs. Brown had placed a
feather in her handbag.
Executives of the company followed
her to her home, after having obtain
ed a search warrant They saw Mrs.
Brown through window, fitting
feather on hat, while Mr.. Brown
gazed approvingly at the combination.
Entering the house, the milliner de-
manded the feather with much indig-
nation.
"why?" demanded Mrs. Brown in
surprise.
Because, it was stolen from my
store" was the reply.
Mrs. Brown burst into laughter
thinking the affair was a joke, but
laughter soon changed to weeping
when she was led to the police court.
She declared that she had beer buying
things at the store for several months
and had credit established.
The milliner was insistent, and Mrs.
Brown was sent to prison to serve one
month at hard labor.
Despite his illness, Mr.. Brown beg
ged to be allowed to serve the time for
his wife, but the magistrate said this
would not vindicate the law. He was
also insistent that Mrs. Brown go to
prison, when her solicitor argued that
a fine would serve the purpose fully
as well.
Mrs. Brown, before leaving the
court room, attempted to explain to
the Judge that she had told the clerk
when she made the first purchase that
she would pay for the feather the next
morning because the amount was so
small.
Members of the American colony
are indignant that refined woman
should be sentenced to hard labor up
on such trivial charge and upon
such evidence.-H Bermuda

Statistics state that twelve billion
