mencement exercises, marking as
they do, the formal closing of the
years work for the Industrial Insti-
tute and College will begin this week
and they will last through next Mon
day when the baecalaureate address
will be given by Hon. John NJ. Park
er, one of Louisiana's most distin-
guished sons. The session has been
a remarkable one in many ways. 1t
was begun when the war was at its
most critical period and throughout
this period the full college work was
continued Notwithstanding the de-
mand made upon the institution for
| patriotic work, all of which was per-
formed most splendidly and patriot
ically. Then ensued the epidemic of
influenza, which sent hundreds of
students home, scattered its faculty
as volunteer nurses and made such
heroic demands upon the time of
those remaining, every responsibility
of which was Loyalty met with the
result that the Industrial College
suffered less than any college in its
country from the epidemic and lost
fewer lives of its students and teach
ers. Notwithstanding these disor-
ganizing and demoralizing influences
the work was resumed and the ses-
sion has been attended by remark
able results.
The commencement exercises be-
gin next Friday afternoon when
Senior Glass day will be observed at
the institution at six O'Clock. This
is always an impressive ceremonial,
bringing to the minds of the dear
girls that the happy days Of their
college'iife are soon to be terminated.
On the evening of the same day in
the College chapel at $50 will oc-
cur the musical program of the insti-
tuition, featuring the Musical Depart
ment and bringing out the accom-
plishment of the students in the
realm of art for the year On Sat
urday afternoon at p. m. will occur
the annual Garden Party, at which
the friends of the institution will
gather to bid goodbye to the stu
dents of the college and to renew
old friendship with those who have
passed from its portals. On next
Sunday at IL o'clock, DR.. S. H.
Woodrow, the distinguished Congre-
gational divine Of st. Louis, will de-
liver the commencement sermon and
on Monday following Hon. John NJ.
Parker, of New Orleans, will deliver
the baccaulaureate address.
The following is list of the Sen
ior class officers, those who will re-
ceiye degrees, both B. A. and B. s.,
as well as those graduating in music
and taking postgraduate courses:

SHOOT EN- OR SHIP EN-"
National Congress of Farmers In Fa-
vor of 100 Per Cent Americanism

Activities OF the political labor
leaders of the "unscrupulous" sort
were denounced as a menace to the
political and economic security of the
nation by speakers in Hagerstown,
Md, last week at the opening session
of the thirty-ninth anual meeting of
the Farmers National Congress.
The need of an effective assertion
of 100 per cent Americanism by the
farmers of the country in combating
the attempt of radical elements to
undermine the political institutions
of the country was impressed upon
the more than 1,500 delegates, rep
resenting all sections of the country
who were present at the opening ses-
sion of the congress.
Responding to the sentiment OF its
speakers, the congress, by unanimous
resolutions, pledged its steadfast sup
port of the government in the strict
enforcement of law and order in
combating certain radical elements
that would vititate the fundamental
principals of our government and
tear down its institutions" To pre-
vent the spread of anarchistic and
radical theories, the resolution as
serted, "the conservation of the Amer
lean farmer must be etenally on
guard"
Welcoming the delegates on be-
half of the State of Maryland, Gov
ernor Harrington declared that the
farmer must accept his full share of
responsibility in directing the course
of the nation. and make himself
heard in all of the councils which
seek settlement of industrial con-
fiicts. In a plea for "unadulterated'
Americanism in all classes the Gov
ernor declared that both capital and
labor must be taught that they can
not JeopardlZe the sovereignty OF Our
nation. Other anarchist and agitators
who have assumed our citizenship
without sympathy for our form of
government must be put down, he
asserted, and the farmer must take
an emphatic hand in the meeting of
the emergency.
]. H. kimble, president of the con-
gpess, told the delegates that the
farmer must "exert a greater infiu-
ence if we are to win the battles of
peace His strength, both politically
on economically, lies in more thor
ough organization and cooperation,
the speaker said.
Declaring that the only way to
treat preachers of anarchy" and the

Serious Spill.

Columbia, Nov. 2.-Walter Golf, of
Brookland, just across the Congaree
river from Columbia, who was injur-

The car, Cadillac Eight, occupied
by him and Newton Kelly, of Column

AMERICA REJECTS
TALYS PROPOSAL
ON F|UME, RUM0R
(By Associated Press)

PARIS, Oct. 3O.-Notifcation has
been given the peace conference by a
representative of Italy, here, that the
proposal made by Foreign Minister
Tittoni for the settlement of the
Fiume problem had not been accepted
by the United States.
1t is declared by authoritative 1tal-
ian quarters, however, that although
the reply of Secretary of State Ian
sing was unfavorable as a whole. a
considerable portion Of the Tittoni
proposal was accepted and that the
exchanges with. the United States on
the subject will be continued
Rumors caused a display OF deep
emotion in Italian conference circles
in Paris.
Despite the fact that no official con-
frmation Of the rumor has been re-
ceived, it is the general sentiment Of
the Italian delegation that the informa-
tion is correct and the delegates are
showing great disappointment. While
the heads Of the Italian mission main
tain their courteous, diplomatic man
ner, lesser members of the delegation
are outspoken. saving the decision
would prolong indefinitely the perpleX-
tiles and anxieties now facing the ltal-
ian government.
It appears to be the general feeling
in italian circles that Italy has reach
ed the extreme limit Of possible con-
cessions and will stand on her present
position.

COAL SUPPLY HERE
FOR TWO MONTHS

Richmond is we'll provided with
coal. canvass made Thursday
shows that about Is per cent of the
householders, who use each from 10
to Is tons of coal a year, have their
stock laid away. Coal dealers have
enough on hand to meet the average
late fall demand of the small users,
for about 60 days.
r The dealers say that the demand
mas increased greatly in the last two
weeks, but they are filling all orders
They also think that rationing of coal
Will be unnecessary.
That If the threa tened coal strike
does go into force on November /.
1t Will not last for more than week,
Is the opinion of men in Richmond
AFFILIATED with the coal business.
About 10000 to $4,000 tons is the
yearly domestic consumption of coal
in Richmond.
Practically all of the Richmond
manufa cturers have their winter SUD.
ply OF coal, and the strike will only in
directly affect them. The city light
plant reports about Is cars OF coal on
hand and about 200 cars on the way
from the Kentucky mines.
County coal dealers report that
practically all the rural residents are
amply supplied.
