President William I. Few Sunday night In Craven Memorial ball de livered bis opening address to (be students in Trinity College. Several churches In the city had withdrawn their services In order that thtlr con gestions might hear Dr. Few, and the best musical tali tit from each was present In the rholr, which, under the direction or M. T. K. Check, contributed largely to the sucrrsg of the occasion. The exercises were opened with the singing of an ant hem by the rholr. after which Dr. George 8.

The president's addreta rame next and for almost an hour Dr. Few held hia hearers closely, seeming to at tract them to him by aome magnetic force, which likewise rauaed his own form Iodine towards the audience. The address was of the same Idealistic quality that Is so eh rue terlstic of President Few, and con tained a' hopeful note In regard to relig'r.ua tendencies of the present day that la unusual In speakers on such topic. The address was not a platitHdinooa one In any respect; rub n It showed careful considera tion and original thinking along con servative tint's: hot It wa marked by an optimism' that is, as a rule found only In utterances of plati tudinous variety. , Taking aa bis subject, "Two Hope ful Religions TcndcaHcs of Our Time," Dr. Few showed how the nvxicrn desire to Interpret the llible according to Its spirit rather than the letter, and also the disposition to place emphasis In regard to re-llgtnti on soundness of life and not on creed hoard Increasing hope for a greater Held of Influence for the Christian churi h. These two tendencies form ed the triple for his diM-usalon and he went Into some detail In showing how they acted to bring about a bet ferment In the religious life of our risy.

The account of the large number of pellagra rases In Durham publish ed in the Sun and the agitation of the necessity for an Investigation has reached the authorities at Washing ton. There la now a likelihood of the establishment of a station in Durham by the public health and marine hospital corps for the Investi gation of tho sources of the disease. At the next session of congress an appropriation of $50, WOO will be asked for the purpose of conducting sn Investigation of the diseawe In the south. For some time, the local phy siciana and members of the board of health, have been planning to have an Investigation of the disease In Durham by tbe federal govern m net or otherwise by expert. Nothing baa been aaid of the plana for the reason that they were not fully ma ture.!, and the physicians desired to get down -to something definite be fore making any public announce ment. The matter baa now been taken up at Washington, aa la net forth by tho following dispatch whkh haa been sent out: lleeenlly It was published In the state papera that there were 100 rases of pellagra In the city of Dur- hame, N. C, and no one has denied the charge. Durham, the home of the treat tobacco kings of the world, haa about 25, 8U" people. Two hun dred of them have pullagra. If the re porta are true. That amount al most to a acourgo. It Is aald here that the medical as sorts! Ion of Durham and some of tbe county and city authorities will ask the government to Investigate the situation In that locality. Pellagra Is spreading at an alarm ing rate. It reaches the high and the low, the rich and the poor, Ihe saint. and the sinner alike. Durham la said' to be one of the worst pellagra spots In thla country.

The Intri cate financial side ot the American Tobacco Company, known as the to bacco trust, and which is now In process of dissolution by order of tbe supreme court of the l ulled Plates, because It was a combination In re straint of trade In violation of the Sherman anti trust law, was set forth In a report of the commissioner of rorimrations, Herbert Knox Smith, which was sent to the president and made public Fonday. It was the sec ond psrt of a report on the tobacco Industry and dents with tbe earnings capitalisation and Investment of the great tobacco combination. The commissioner points out that tbe vast earning power which arose from the substantial control of the snhncto Industry was a monopoly re sulting from concentration. The cap- Itallistlon of this monopolistic power was much greater than the actual Investment, and by clever arrange ment the bulk of the earnings were renteied In th bands of a very small group of Individuals.
