INFLUENCE OF HAMPTON.
Miss Bertha Condo Delivers Instructive
Address at Noted Virginia School.


Address at Noted Virginia School.
The name Hampton when applied to
the Hampton (NaJ Normal and Agri
cultural institute is n name to be con
jured with. From this school went
possibly the first, and certainly the
best. prepared group Of colored teach.
ers who served faithfully in the coun
try schools not many years after the
close of the civil war. The influence
of the Hampton institute has been and
Is blessing to humanity.
One OF the most recent and helpful
additions to the institute Is branch OF
the Young Women's Christian associa
ton. 1t has brought some interesting
speakers to the school. Recently Miss
Bertha Conde. senior student secretary
of the National Y. NJ. G. A. board.
spoke to the school at the chapel serv-
ice. She told the students little
about the Worlds Student Christian
federation, which is composed Of stu
dents in all parts Of the world. and
urged them to give in their lives the
answer to the question which people
everywhere are asking today, What
is there In Jesus Christi"
Miss Conde said that Christ Is on
trial today, as he was in Pilates time.
As PLATE had the power to release him
or to cruelty him, so have we. and we
must decide which we are going to do.
PLATE heard voices saying things
against Christ land their voices pre-
vailed Ambition, pride and selfish
ness are the voices that drown the call
Of Christ today. and we must not let
them prevail. but must come out clear
" and allow him to be the greatest
power in our lives.

When the Orpet defense opens it's

Cused of the murder of Marion Lam

It has already offered into evidence
a letter written by the girl and found
in her possession when she was dis
covered dead under the trees in
Helms Woods. This letter, written
to Miss Minnie NJ RUmsey, teacher
Of the Sunday school class in Lake
Forest, it is cOntended, will prove
that Marion was unhappy and had
been so for some time. In it she
stated that she laughed when she
wanted to cry.
Will Orpet will be his own star
witness. He will tell of the death
scene in Helms Woods, which no one
but himself witnessed, and he will
declare Marion Lambert took poison
because he could not continue his
relations with her. He will admit his
lies in previous confessions and the
abb he framed before going to the
last tryst with the girl, but will de-
clare alibi was because he feared she
would attempt suicide.

which the law imposed, and that the
litigation to test the constitutional
ity of the act may never be begun, or
if begun, may never be carried to the
supreme court.
Whether the railroads accept this
legislation or not, those of us who
were instrumental in placing this
law upon the statute books need Of
fer no apologies for our action.
We faced a national crisis. The
president had used all the power at
his command to bring the two parties
together and had failed. Arbitration
was impossible. The strike impend-
ed. EmbaTgoes had been laid against
perishable freight. Prices of neces-
sites of life doubled overnight. It
is untrue that congress was prodded
or driven in this matter. If there was
any driving done, the public interest
was the driver. We were the spOkes-
men of the American people and we
acted as their spokesman.
The statement that this is an act
to increase labor or to take control
of labor is without foundation. It
merely provides the status quo until
operation of the 8-hOur day can be
observed by a competent commits
sion, and until further legislation can
be had.
It is merely truce enforced upon
the warning elements; it is merely a
protocol adopted prior to a perma-
nent treaty.
Nobody need fear that congress
will ever deliberately disregard the
rights of either the railroads or their
employees.

ADAMSON WRITES ABOUT HIS
EIGHT-HOUR LAW
BY William C. Adamson
ANGPI CSCllLdLlNC III SOliSlCSS llOlll
Georgia and Author of Railroad
Eight-Hour-Day Billy
No piece of legislation ever passed
by the American congress was more
justifable than the bill proposed at
the joint session by Pres. Wilson,
and later enacted by both houses, for
the prevention of a nationwide rail-
road strike.
This bill fixes an 8-hour work
ing day as the basis of pay for train
men engaged in interstate commerce
and before it had even been signed by
the president it had served it's imme-
date purpose by recalling the strike
order which had gone forth.
Not only did the 8-hour act spare
this country period of paralysis
and distress more overwhelming

LOUIS HOLLAR STILL MISSING
Police Asked to Renew Search for
Hospital Patient.

W. F. Stuart, Alexandria. Va, yes
terday visited Inspector Grant, chief of
detectives. and asked that search be
renewed for Louis Hollar, a patient at
Walter Reed Hospital, who escaped
last Tuesday from that institution
Stuart is Holler's father-in-law, and he
fears the missing man died in the
woods after escaping from the hos
pital.
Hollar, who was q member of the Al
exandria militia, started for the Dor
der shortly after he underwent an
operation, was taken sick in Richmond
and returned for treatment at Walter
Reed Hospital. Six policemen searched
the woods for the missing man without
finding any trace of him, and yester-
day Detective Armstrong was assigned
to participate in the investigation.
The police Were told of a rumor that
there was an automobile near the hos
pital the morning when Holler
capped, clad only in his pajamas, and
soldiers on duty there suggested it was
possible he had gone away in the
car.
