FOUR MILLION
DOLLAR HOSPITAL
FOR CINCINNATI
(By Associated Press.)

CINCINNATI. Ohio, Feb 20.-An
occasional notable interest through
out this section was celebrated here
today in the formal dedication of Gin
cinnati's new four million dollar hos
pital building.
The institution is one of the larg-
est of its kind west of the Mississippi
river and east of the Rockies, and it's
equipment is said to be equal to that
of any hospital in the United States,
with the exception of that at Johns
Hopkins University, at Baltimore
Md.
The dedicatory ceremonies were at
tended by many persons prominent in
politics, religious and art, as we'll as
by eminent medical authorities from
many states.

Kaiser Poor
Bible Subject
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, Feb. Pathological
scholars have been searching in vain
through the works of John Knox to
find the Kaisers quotation attributed
to him that "A man who walks with
God is always in the majority" The
Edinburg Scotsman has called upon
leading Presbyterian pastors, who con
TESS themselves unable to find the
words.
Did not the Kaiser quote from Ste
phen A. Douglass or Wendell Phillips,
asks the Scotsman. Douglas said,
God and one are a majority" Phil
lips expression took this form, lone
on Gods side is majority"
Some scholars attributed the lines
to an old Spanish proverb. At any
rate, it is pointed out that being "in a
majority" was not sixteenth century
phrase.

MAN MAY GET
DRUNK AND YET
BE Gen TLEMAN
Especial to Times-Recorder.)

ATLANTA, Ca, Feb. 20.-That "a
man may get drunk and still be CT
good character was the ruling of the
state court of appeals this week in
the case of Waldo Dunn VS.. the
State.
Dunn was indicted for the murder IF
Henry Tankersly, of Blue Ridge, and
convicted of voluntary manslaughter.
One point which arose was that the
defendant had been seen in an intox-
icated condition. On this point the
court opinion read:
Sacred, ancient and modern his
tory from the dawn of creation down
to this ruling, teaches us of the good
character of men who at some time in
their lives got drunk; including Noah
Princes of the House of David, kings
emperors, presidents, senators, gov
ernOrs, judges, lawmakers, solicitors,
preachers and teachers.
"The Bible tells us that Noah got
drunk and also that Noah was a just
man and perfect in his generation,
and that he walked with God.
'Movant respectfully contends that
man at some time in his life can
have gotten drunk and his general
character still be good"
The text of this motion was written
by Judge N. A. Morris, of Cobb, and
was virtually indorsed by the court
in its decision.

There have been no further devel-
opments this morning in the Oliver
murder at Leesburg, although the
crime is still the absorbing topic of
interest there and in Smithville, as
in Americas. The arrest yesterday of
Banker G. w. Chance, of Smithville,
and his son, Claude Chance, and the
issuing of a warrant for Minter Ken
nedy, Smithville groceryman, added
interest to the case, and insures one
of the greatest legal contests that has
been known in that section.
Messrs. Roy Black, ]. C. Webb ami
Roy Jones, of Sumter, are still held
in custody, despite their strenuous
request for committal trial yester-
day at the hour fixed therefor, and
their expressed ability to prove COM
plete alibi on the night of the MUIR

Leesburg to testify that Mr.. Black was

The trial of all of the men now held
in Leesburg Jail has been fixed for
Wednesday next at 10 o'clock, and an
other great throng will be in attend
ance then as on yesterday.
Great sympathy is expressed here
for Messrs. Jones, Webb and Black, as
it is firmly believed they had nothing
whatever to do with the crime, and
were at their respective homes We'd

1t is reported that the ownership Of
the shotgun with which Oliver is sup
posed to have been killed, has been
traced, and that it belongs to a party
in Smithville; one who has not yet
been arrested.

MEETING OF CLASSICAL ASSO-
CIATION OF NEW ENGLAND.

Prof. S. E. Bassett of the Univer-
of the Vermont section of the Clas-
steal Association of New England at
it's 10th annual meeting held in Burling-
ton Saturday. The executive COM
mittee is composed of Principal A. S.
Hartman, Middlebury high school,
Principal j. H. Fuller, Hardwick high
school and Principal j. C. Walker, Yer
gennes high school; secretary and
treasurer, Prof. R. H. White, Middle
bury College. The next meeting will
be held at Middlebury College. There
was an attendance of 80, including 35
teachers representing Is schools and
colleges.
At noon an informal luncheon was
served to the visiting teachers by the
classical department of the university
at the home of Professor and Mrs.
Bassett.
The forenoon session was devoted
to discussing the art of translating
the classics and the problems of teach
ing this art. Prof. w. S. Burrage of
Middlebury college presided and the
subject was introduced by Prof.
Frederick Upper of the University of
Vermont. Professor Upper gave an
exposition of the various types of
translation, and the ideals and short
comings of the translators of Latin and
Greek authors.
Prin. j. H. Fuller of Hardwick high
school spoke on the difficulties in teach
ing school boys and girls how to trans
late we'll. The translation of a Latin
passage into English should not be
allowed until it is certain that the pupil
understands both the meanings and the
syntacical relations.
Miss Lucy A. Barber of Bishop
Hopkins hall discussed the translation
of Virgil. Ignorance of syntax, in
suficiency of preparation and mental
slackness are three enemies of good
translation in the school.
Raymond H. White of Middlebury
college told of advantages and disad-
vantages in teaching classics by on
trasting the claims of the direct
method, which would do away with
translation, and the traditional way
in which the polished translation is one
of the final tests of efficiency. In
teaching Latin, he said, translation is
less an art than a tool, which should be
carefully used.
Principal Henry H. Jackson of Barre
high school took charge of the after
noon session. Professor Burrage gave
an original rendering of "The Plutus"
of Aristophanes in up-to-date English.
After the papers were discussed Prof.
M. H. Sanford of Middlebury College
summed up the papers of the day.

BRYANT PLANT DESTROYED BY FIRE.
The plant occupied by ]. B. Bryant
and used for the manufacture of lock
cornered boxes and turned work was
totally destroyed by fire on Monday
afternoon. The fire was discovered at
the moo hour and is supposed to have
been caused by a hot box. The fire was
in such a position and the smoke so
dense and suffocating that all efforts to
get into the building were truitless,
therefore the attention of the workers
turned to the smaller buildings and the
large amount of stock in the near
vicinity. The buildings were owned by
Austin Peck and had been under lease
by Mr.. Bryant for about ten years.
The property loss is estimated at $12,-
900, with an insurance of SIS, 200, equally
divided between Mr.. Peck and Mr..
Bryant. The plant employed between
Is and 20 persons and coming at this
season of the year the fire will prove a
hardship to many.
The history of the site dates back for
many years, the original building hav-
ing burned in 1851. The property was
then purchased by the late Almon P.
Upper and used for the manufacture
of sash, doors and blinds. In 1877 the
plant was purchased by Austin Peck
and many additions and improvements
to buildings and machinery made. He
continued in the above business and in
addition bought many thousand cords of
white birch which he sawed into dimen-
sion material, the purchase of which
proved a source of income to many in
this and surrounding towns. 1t is stated
on good authority that the first sash
made by machinery in the United States
was made in this original building on
this site. Nothing is known definitely
as to what will be done with the loca-
ton. Those most interested in the fire
are very grateful to the people in this
village and surroundings and especially
to the people of Middlebury who by
their hearty response and the liberal
use of chemical apparatus helped to
save the small buildings and a large
amount of stock.
