continued to. a future date, yet to
be announced the hearing which was
scheduled fer june i. ~'."
Pending the hearing the railroad
commissions order remains in effect
which requires that the two COM

companies, even though this means

! M American Company recently
requested the railroad commission
to- rescind it's order and asked the
hearing which was called for June 1.

requests postponement, and it is said

AMERICA is LEADING

JUssERAND DECLARES
french Ambassador Pays Tribute
To This Country at Centennial
OF University Of Virginia

SnarlOCLeSSlile, 'o., "o
merica is one of the nations IN the
vanguard of civilization as regards
learning and discoveries, Jules j.
Jusserand, the French ambassador,
declared today in responding to ad-
dress of welcome at the formal open
ing of the exercises incident to the
centennial celebration Of the found
ing Of the University of Virginia.
"Amercas universities, labora-
tories. lbraries and scientific periodi-
calls are the envy of more than one
foreign nation" said the ambassa-
dor.
"She not only receives professors
from abroad but sends some OF her
own, who are received with open
arms-open ears. -
~ Has Come Into Own .
IAN even more telling proof that
the problem is solved and that Am
erica has come into her own in the
rnatter of learning is the high ap-
4preciation in which are held in every
country the medals, prizes or other
tokens of appreciation she may
choose to betow. These tokens
sometimes are the sign not only OF
her appreciation of merit, but OF
her Unborn ;warmheartedness and
generosity. The other day, having
heard that the discoverer Of radium
possessed no radiu1n she presented a
gram of the substance to Madame
Gurie, the presentation being made
at the White House by the chief of
State in speech which went to the
heart not only of the illustrious lady
but to the whole of France"
Welcomed BY Governor
Visitors here for the centennial
we're welcomed to the university by
Governor Davis, of Virginia, and
Dr.. Edwin A.. Alderman, president
Of the university. Besides Ambassa-
dor Jusserand, those making re-
sponses were DR.. A. Lawrence Low
ELL, president of Harvard UNIVERSE
ty; DR.. Julius A. Chandler, president
d Wilaiam and Mary college, and
DE-. Albert Ross Hill president OF
the University of Missouri. After
these exercises the alumni Of the
university paid honor to the war
dead. A plaque upon which are writ
ten the names of 80 sons sof the uni
verssity who lost their lives in the
world war, was unveiled. The plaque
is on the south front Of the historic
rotunda, besides a tablet upon wtich
are inscribed the names Of, living
and dead officers who fought in the
War Between the States.
Captain Alfred Dickinson Barks-

To few other actors has similar
honor come. Two come to mind. Sir
Johnston Forbes Robertson and the late
Sir Henry Irving. Sir Johnston has re-
tired to private life. leaving Mr.. Arliss
as the lone representative, by official
recognition. of the new and justly de-
served attitude of respect which institu-
tions of learning entertain for actors Of
intelligence and hstrionic ability
Mr. ARTISTS achievement of this
unique distinction Is the result OF long
years devoted to studying the art of
acting and the perfecting his own special
histrionic gifts He has worked long
and hard. not sparing himself in giving
the public such detailed. truthful and
carefully etched characterizations as
ZoEkuyi in 1.-THE Darling OF the Gods" I"
Rdoul Berton In Leah Kleschna," the
title rodes in "The Devil" "Disraelis'

at all unlikely that his Raja of Rukh in
