It is gratifying to the friends of both the University of North Carolina and the University of Virginia to learn That the baseball teams of the two institutions will meet on the diamond this spring. It will be re membered that last fall athletic relations between the two were severed owing to their Inability to come to terms on the stipulations for the Thanksgiving root bail game. The baseball games this spring will be played under a set of rules submitted by Carolina to Virginia early last fall. One game will be played t Charlottesville, and another at Greens boro, N. C, with the possibility of a third game at Chapel Hill. The baseball schedule Just given, out by Mannger Robinson Is (rood one. With the prospect of the Virginia games and two games with Lehlgn on the grounds of the Jamestown Exposition the men on the diamond cannot help working hard. Players and students alike are now anxious for tho season to open. The prospects look gloomy nc present, though, as a muddy diamond has prevented any reajlly Satisfactory training eo far. This week at Chapel Hill has witness ed not only the resuming of athletic re lations with Virginia, but also the an nouncement of the certainty of a de bale with that Institution Carolina's debaters will now havo the opportunity that they have so long desired of meet ing In the forensic field the rival that her athletes have cherished as such a dear enemy through so many generations of students. Mr. Henry Lawrence Southwlck. dean of the Kmerson College of Oratory, Bos ton, gave a dramatic Impersonation of Bulwer-I.ytton's Cardinal-King, Itlche llu. before the students of the University Tuesday night. The Impersonation was of the first order, and was highly ap preciated. Mr. John Charles McNeill. iof The Observer staff, favored the members of the Modern Literature Club of the Uni versity with a reading from his poems Monday night. His readings were highly enjoyable, being rendered more interest ing still by the personality of the au ihor. and by his comments. Mr Mc Neill's Introduction was full of humor. "Whv all this cryt ngalnst the negro?" he said. "If the negro were lo gn what would become of ragtime, coon snnps, and. worst of all. of the writers of negro dialect?" Mr. McNeill Inferred that the last would be an Irretrievable less. In which opinion his audience seem ed to agree with him. Having thus de molished the deportation, rolonlzntlnn. and amalgamation theories Mr. McNeill proceeded to give "The Negro's Calen dar." "There Is n 'lever's Calendar.' ' said he. "and a 'Shepherd's Calendar." and It seems to me that there ought to he one for the negro " Such a calen dar he then furnished by quoting selec tions from his verso Illustrative, of the different characteristics of the life of the negro from January to December. A committee from the legislature vis ited the University early In tho week for the purpose of Inspecting the buildings and equipment of the college. The commit tee consisted of Representatives V. K.

DAVIDSON, Corrcsp ndenco of The Observer. Pivl.lson. March 2 The mud nnd slush that lor some duys has covered the side walks and made pedestrlnns wish Hint thev had the wings of a bird rather than the fret of the human biped as a means of locomotion has given rise to a good deal of talk about the necessity or ad visability of concrete pavements. It Is more than likely, we think, that the dis cussion will end In talk, but many nre seriously proposing that the town pay half nnd the Indlvldtinl property owner half the cost of laying these cement pavements nlong the line of his own front. Ancther suggestion Is that strong wood curbing be nut on the edge of the walk and each Individual pay the cost of gravel needed along his line. It Is thought thnt this gravel ran be secured at about H per hundred feet. Certainly If the dirty condition of things Just at present does not suffice for action, no sober argument In the long dry summer days will find any listener or any advo cate to push the matter to a finish. The not-Inconsiderable Job of raking the leaves off the campus has been be gun nnd In the Intermittent periods of KODOI, digests what you ent and quickly overcomes Indigestion, which la 'a forerunner of Dyspepsia. It Is made. In (strict conformity to the National Purs Food and lrugs law and la sow on a guarantee relief plaa.

The leaves are greedily taken by all householders who ate glad to have,, them for the barn yard or lazy-beds In the garden and to pay tho price of hauling. It must cost the college something like 120 or $31) to get the campus clean and the grass freo its winter covering. '. . The Brutton Bros., .who recently pur chased the Davidson Milling Company property, are engnged in making a large addition to the building on the north aide preparatory to starting up a complete re pair and machinery shop for wood and iron work. The Y. M. C. A. men are nuietly dis cussing who shall be elected president of the association for the next scholastic year. The selection is made from the present Junior class, which, of course, will be senior a- year hence. An all round good, 'strong man Is needed for the office. He should be strong re ligiously, Intellectually and physically, a leader because of his excellence In these several, particulars and popular" with It all that he may attract all kinds of men to the association, not merely those who work In It from a senso of duty, but those who muBt be coaxed and stimulat ed to do their duty. It le very evident that a first-class Y. M. C. A. president Is not such an easy thing to get as one might at first imagine. President H. L Smith was under ap pointment to lecture at Raeford to-morrow night and to conduct the services on Sunday, but the weatjier conditions are such that his dates haye been chang ed to the following week: Dr. Shearer, who has been lecturing several days this week at Columbia Theological 8eminary, will not return home till Monday. Dr. W. J. Martin Is on the programme for an address next 8n.tur.lay at tho Mecklenburg Sundav School Convention, to he held in Charlotte. The following Sunday (March the 10th) he Is to fill the pulpit of the First church, Concord, In the absence of the, pastor, Rev. Dr. George ('ornelson. Dr. Cornelson's call to Nashville, whether he accept It or decline is not a matter of surprise to any one here. His week of preaching lart fat in the V". M. C. A. was of such a high order of excellent that 11 was easy lo guess that as long as Concord tnlgnt keep him she wruld have constantly a fight of an ec clesiastical kind on her hands, some large church constantly bidding for him.

SJnee the removal of Trinity Col lege In 1892 this property has been used by the Trinity High School. The school has had a varied history since it has been under the keeping of sev eral different men since Its beginning. Dark and direful have been the pre dictions In regard to its future, but that It still exists seems to prove that It has within it the power to renew Its youth. Strong and useful men have guided the affairs ot the Trinity High School since 1892. Among this number have ben Revs. J. F. Heltman, T. A. Smoot, J. F. Kirk, and Dr. Geo. B. Pegram. In 1902 the High School property was leased to Prof. J. T. Henry. Upon the resignation of Prof. Henry In December last the property passed again into the hands of the board of trustees of Trinity College. The board of trustees of Trinity College Is represented by a local board, com posed of Rev. S. R. Turrentlne, D. D., chm.; Dr Dred Peacock, sec. and treas, and Dr. W. Q. Bradshaw. Rev B: F. Hargett, financial agent of the institution, was given authority to act as headmaster and select a fac ulty. The following soven teachers now comprise the faculty: High School Department W. A. Blvins, prin.; Prof. N. C. English, Uev. B. F. Hargett, teacher of Bible, and Miss Corrle June Scruggs; pri mary department Miss Ora Hucka heo; department of music and elocu tion Miss Stella Nox Norrls. The spring term opened Jan. 7. Up to date 133 students havo been enrolled, and there are yet Inany prospective students. The young men of tho school have changed the name of their literary society from Lycurglun to thnt of the Braxton-Craven Literary Society. The young ladies have, chosen the name of the mother of Trinity for their society, which Is now known as the Irene Craven Literary Society. A number of things might be men tioned as being needed ut the Trinity High School and which must be se cured If the school continues to pros per. A few of the principal needs are a new dormitory, better lighting and heating facilities, and a good li brary. It Is the purpose of the school to prepare thoroughly all stu dents desiring to enter Trinity Col lege or any other first-class college of the State. It Is not necessary to argue that the school Is needed. For sooth to say, considering tho gross ignorance which yet remains within the boMers of our Commonwealth, on aicounlTof Inadequate public schools, !o let it go down would bo to pul the Methodist Church of tho State to an open shame.

Freight Wreck. Special to The Observer. ( ;'. .'','; Wilmington, March S, A special session of the United States Circuit Court was held In this city Friday, Judge Nathan Ooff, of West Virginia, presiding. ; The only matter 61 Inter est at the term was an. order strlk Ing out a former judgment by default glvenlagalnBt the New Jersey & North Carolina Land & Lumber Co. by Judge Purnell at a late term on that "famous occasion" when Attorney Iredell Meares came before his hon or a few minutes late. At the time, It will bo recalled that Mr. Meares made a motion In writing to set aside the Judgment on the ground that It was improperly granted. All the maters In conection with the default judgment were argued yesterday from noon until i o'clock In the af ternoon, with the exception of an hour's recess for dinner, find at the conclusion of tho hearing Judge Ooff made the order, saying that upon a review of all the circumstances he could not escape the conclusion that the former order had been Inadvert ently made and that ho was satisfied that if Judge Purnell had hen pres- ent, as he had hoped to be, he would himself concur in the opinion after tho full hearing and argument. On . ... motion of Hon. Jno. D. Bellamy and George Rountree, Esq., however. Judge Ooff ruled that the complain ants, Mr. Meares" clients, would have to pay tne cosis ot me ihsi lerm hearing Inusmuch as on the face ofjlrgear. New York to Birmingham. Solid the record he would have asked a continuance anyway on account of tho abnenco of witnesses. Several thousand acres of what Is known as the "Green swamp kinds" In Bruns wick and Columbus counties, are In question in the litigation which cafne very near going off on account of Mr. Meares' erratic timepiece, therefore he Is much elated over the re-opening of the case. Because they objected to plac ards of "No Talking During Work Honrs" posted in tho room where they were at work, twenty-five young ladies employed In The overall de partment of the Willard Bag & Man ufacturing Company, In the southern part of the city, went on a strike yes terday. They claim It Is an unwar ranted restriction of the freedom of ipeech. The places of the strikers were Immediately tilled from other departments of the factory where more thun 200 young women are em ployed.
