Leads all North Carolina Dailies in Mows and Circulation THE FIRST CUSS IS GRADUATED From the Baptist Female Uni versity Yesterday. DR. VANN’S FINAL CHARGE Two Able Essays Read by Miss Wooten and Miss Shields. • LOVELY MUSIC FILLED THE INTERIMS Graduating Class Yesterday Afternoon Organ ized the Alumnae Association. Faculty and Trustees Barq jet the Gradjates. The garduatiug exercises of the Baptist Female University yesterday morning were very impressive and very beautiful. As at all of the other commencements ceremonies this week, there was a big crowd, and everything went off with the utmost dispatch and smoothness. The chapel presented a lovely appearance, with its decorations of flowers. One side of the room was reserved for the stu dents, nearby all of whom wore white. The seniors sat on the platform and it was a pretty background they made in their white summer dresses. The exercises yesterday were especially notable from the fact that this is the first class to go out from the Baptist Female University. This fact was beau tifully touched upon by Dr. T. E. Skin ner in his opening prayer and by Dr. Vann in his baccaleaureate address. At eleven o’clock the procession of seniors, led by Dr. R. T. Vann, presi dent of the University, and Dr. T. E. Skinner, of this city, and ushered by two young ladies of the junior class, came up the aisle and took seats upon the platform. After the reading of scripture in Proverbs, and prayer by Dr. Skinner, Miss Eliza Rebecca Wooten, of LaGrange. read an essay entitled “The Jew: A Lit erary Study.” Miss Wooten in a very able and ex quisitely worded paper contrasted Mar lowe’s treatment of Barabas in “The Jew' of Melta” with Shakespeare's picture of Shylock in “The Merchant of Venice.” The savageness and inhuman passions of the one were compared with the more life-like and human nature of the other. Then a view- of the Jew from the intel lectual standpoint was shown in Les sing's character of Nathan the Wise. At the conclusion of Miss Wooten’s essay, Miss Hattie Purefoy rendered most faultlessly on the piano Grieg’s Berceuse and The Enchantress of Jensen. An essay on “Two Exponents of Saxon and Teutone Races” was then read with great ease and power by Miss Margaret W. Shields, of Scotland Neck. She se lectcd # Shakespeare and Goethe as the two exponents of the great races, and compared the simplicity of the English playwright with the culture and vast depth of the German poet and dramatist. It was a fine piece of work. Dr. Vann then, with the assistance of l’rof. Kesler. conferred diplomas upon the following graduates: M. A. ' . Margery Kesler. sumrna cum laude. B. A. Mary Estelle Johnson, Elizabeth Par ker. Rosa Catherine Paschall, cum laude; Mary Perry, Margaret W. Shields, cum laude; Minnie Wilma Sutton, Elizabeth Gladys Tull, Eliza Rebecca Wooten. So phie Stephens Lanneau. summa cum laude. Diploma in Music—Virginia Grayson. Diplomas in Art—Beulah Beatrice Bow den. Elizabeth Parker. Certificate in Muisc—Jessie Thomas Brewer. Certificates in Art —Minnie Daniel. Nell Gray Ezzell. Certificates in Business—Ada Parker, Dora L. Parker, Thereby Potter. Certificates in Shorthand —Margaret Loo Cain. Emma Harrington, Rosa Williams Phillips. May Ber.nett Royster, Sarah Tatum, Lillian Louise Woody. “Cum laude” was explained to mean that a percentage of never less than 8.-. bad been made in all grades, and “Summa cum laude” that a percentage of never less than 95 had been made in all grades. •Besides the two essays read, the sub jects of the seniors' theses were given out as follows: A Study of Method and Personality— Mary Estelle Johnson. The Mosquito in Its Relation to Dis ease—Margery Kesler. Anaximander and his Theories—Sophie Stephens Lanneau. Some Abuses of Our Pension System— Elizabeth Parker. Lyric Poets and Poetry—Mary Perry.

After the diplomas had been all con ferred. Dr. Vann delivered his farewell charge to the first class to leave the University, as follows: 11 wawninrmei A J BACCALA U R GATE A DDR ESS. “Members of the Graduating Class: In the name of your teachers and your fellow-students, in the name of the Board of Trustees, in the name of the great host in North Carolina whose hearts are with us today, in the name of all. I sa lute von the first graduating class of the Baptist Female University. Many right- eous souls have waited long to see this clay. They see it and are glad. Some \yho have abounded in sacrifice and pray er for this school have gone up to their coronation. If it is given them to view the scenes and events of earth and to share the feelings of mortals, this will be a notable day with them in Heaven. “But to you most of all is this hour eventful. It marks the invisible boun dary between girlhood and womanhood. It is the gateway to a new' life for you. Hitherto you have simply been the daugh ters of your parents. You have shone in their light and been known by the names they gave you They have borne your troubles and stood mainly in your stead. Henceforth, you are to stand alone, known by your own names, judged by your own deeds. You are to begin in earnest the making of a career, and in this initial hour of that larger life many egaer eyes are upon you. “But now, as we face one another for the last time in the old relation of stu dents and teachers, now ere the hour strikes which transforms the school-girl into an alumna, suffer this parting word: “You have been forecasting the future, and possibly with some anxiety have asked, ’What shall I make of myself.’ I beg to suggest an answer for each and all. namely, make a woman. Seek first of all and before all to reproduce in your own true selves God’s last and noblest gift to the world—a woman. This is for you the primal question, how with the material in hand to produce the best re sults, something that may worthily he called a woman. I know not what the future holds for you. Some of you. and possibly all, may be compelled to look to yourselves for food and raiment. So be it, f God wills. But even in that case, the supreme question is not how to make a living, but how to make a life. For the life is greater far than the living, even as the body is more than raiment. Given the right kind of life, and the liv ing will come. For by the very constitu tion of nature, which is simply the stead fast ordinance of God, the best life sur vives. When the wise king said, ‘Trust in the Lord and do good: so shalt thou dwell in the land and verily thou shalt be fed,’ he w'as speaking as a believing prophet, to be sure; but he spoke also as a divinely inspired philosopher. “But how to accomplish this supreme task, how' to build this incomparable structure. Five things enter into all model and effort. The foundation has been already laid, beginning far back in the clays of childhood. The materials are at hand, around and within you. For each of you has in her the making of a genuine woman. I must take for granted, too, that you appreciate the need and value of effort, for this conception has been a part of your training here. Per mit me to lay your minds with somewhat more of insistence those other two es sentials of great building. The one, you remember, is purpose. I charge you to begin at once the making of a purpose. Resolve strongly and highly. No great life was ever a purposeless life. Men and women come to greatness as a result of great purpose, and only thus. For all greatness' is the outcome of struggle, and every lofty struggle is born of a heroic resolution. Be not content simply to be. But resolve to be something that will both count and weigh in the sum of hu n anlty. “I charge you also to set before your selves a noble plan. Seek nothing less than the loftiest models, for none rise above iheir ideals, and most of us fall tar below. It is mournful to mark the wrecks of misdirected effort, strength, and genius, all over the field of time. A successful,human life is mush more than the gratification of appetites, the satis faction of ambition, or the repose of sel fish ease. That inner monitor which pro claims your divine kinship will keep sig nalling that not one of these nor all can fill up the measure of a life. The world's noblest livers have been those who held themselves a part of all that was; to whom nothing that concerned humanity was a matter of indifference; who loved righteousness and hated ini quity, and who were therefore ‘anointed with the oil of gladness above their fel lows.’ Make models of those lofty souls. Your building will rise slowly, with many disheartening handicaps and with some seeming disasters. Be not impatient, ‘forty and six years was this temple in building.’ \ Discussing the term “scuttle’ as ap plied to the Philippine policy, he de clared that what the minority now asked to be done as to the Philippines was precisely what leading Senators of the majority wanted to be done in the be ginning. and yet the opprobious term “scuttle” now was applied to the sug gestion of the minority. He read from a speech by Mr. Spooner in support of his assertion, declaring that the Wisoon son Senator had committed himself to the proposition that we ought not to re tain the Philippines, but that we ought to establish a government for the Filipinos. Senator Bacon did not conclude his speech today, being compelled to stop on account of the bad condition of his throat. ALUMNAF.

NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY MORNING. MAY 22. 1902. DUMPING PAUPERS UPONJUR SHORES The Need of Restricting Im migration Shown, SPEECH BY UNDERWOOD Resolution Seating Congressman Thomas Agreed To. BACON MAKES THE MAJORITY SQUIRM He Shows That Leading Senators of the Re publicans at One Time Favored the Philippine Policy New Advo cated by Democrats. (By the Associated Press.) Washington, May 21. —The House be gan consideration of the Immigration Bill today. The principal speech was made by Mr. Shattuck, of Ohio, chair man of the Committee on Immigration. He was especially severe in his con demnation of the manner in which immi grants are introduced through Canada, and by Canadian Railway and Steamship Companies. Mr. Underwood (Ala.) gave notice that an amendment to provide an educational test and much of the dis cussion during the day was upon this subject. Mr. Underwood spoke of the growing need of stringent restrictions against immigration as a measure.of self preservation for American citizen ship and republican institutions. The class of immigration had descended low er and lower since 1880, due to the in ducements held out to the pauper and criminal element of Europe to immi grate, until Mr. Underwood declared a grave and threatening condition was presented. The House agreed tc> the resolution seating Charles R. Thomas from the Third North Carolina district, also seat ing Emmet Tompkins from the Twelfth Ohio district, whose seat was contested by John J. Lentz, also confirming the right of Mr. Rhea of the Ninth Virginia district. Bacon Continues His Speech. (By the Associated Press.) Washington, May 21. —Before the Sen ate resumed Consideration of the Philip pine Bill today it adopted a resolution congratulating the Republic of Cuba ‘upon its entry into the family of independent nations and the Secretary of State was directed to transmit the resolution to the President of the new epublic. The Senate also ordered the Associated Press account of the ceremonies of the transfer from the United States to the Cuban authorities printed in the Congressional Record and as a public document. Mr. Wellington (Md.) opposed the pend ing Philippine measure and denounced the action of the United States in the islands as indefensible, as the attack of the hordes of hell upon God. He de clared that above the army and the War Department and the President w'ere the American people, and in his judg ment, they were responsible for the con dition of affairs in the Philippines, be cause they had placed the dollar above the man. In a continuation of his speech of yes terday, Mr. Bacon (Georgia) again de nounced the concentration policy pur sued in the Philippines. He indicated that if loading Republican Senators would declare it to be their purpose to give the Filipinos a free government, the minority would not quarel about the time when the Government was to be established. They desired simply to know that tin 1 Philipine excrescence was to be cut off. Adverting to the policy of concentra tion, Mr. Bacon said that Mr. Foraker had indicated yesterday that the order for concentration had been issued for a humanitarian purpose and to protect to friendly Filipinos from bandits and guerilla bands. The trouble with that idea was that a definite date had been fixed for the coming into concentration camps of the Filipinos, the order stating that if the inhabitants did not enter the camps by the specified date their property would be liable to confiscate. It was evident that the concentration order had some other purpose than that stated by Mr. Foraker. When, he referred to the camps as concentration camps, Mr. Spooner in quired if it was the purpose to fasten upon the American army the odium of Weylerism. He said the term reconcen trado stood for a policy of infamy, which was not the purpose/ of General 801 l in issuing the concentration order and he believed Mr. Bacon knew that the gen eral had no such purpose. Mr. Bacon said he had called atten tion to this matter simply to show the American people* what were the results of the Philippine poliry in order that, understanding it, they might be induced to abandon it. Old Landmark Goes. An old oak tree that was a Italeigli landmark has gone. It stood at the Church of the Sacred Heart, on Hills boro street, and has been cut down. The tree was a big one. being over four feet in diameter and about twelve feet in circumference at the bottom. This was one of the old landmarks and its age is estimated at over a hundred J years Many of these old oaks are dis- j appearing. • RALEIGH TAKES IT .

FURIOUS OUTBURSTS FROM BOTH IRE VOLCANOES Terror-Maddened Islanders Flying to Fort De France. A RAIN OF FIERY STONES Lieutenant McCormick of the Potomac Rescues Many of the Villagers, ASHES AND PU VIICE FALL IN ST. VINCENT An Alarming arc! Apparently Credible Report That an Fx'irct Volcano Six Mibs From Kingston is Showing Signs of Activity. (By the Associated Press ) Fort De France, Island of Martinique, May 21—Yesterday's eruption from Mont Pelee was violent in the extreme. Colossal columns of volcanic matter were ejected from the volcano, which rained huge, red hot boulders, many feet in diameter, on the ruins of St. Pierro and the country near it, from an enor mouselevation and with fearful velocity. The volcanic clouds advanced until they reached Fort De France. The spectacle was appalling and sub- I lime bevond all description. The whole population of Fort De Franco was thrown into a frenzy of panic, during which sol diers. pclice, men and women, all teri fied, frantic, weeping and praying, rush ed through the streets, while overhead the glowing fiery clouds rolled relent lessly and rained down stones, still hot, amid the swirling ashes. The xteam launch ow the United States cruiser Cincinnati took some. refuge and ■to the French cruiser Suchct and nearly a hundred persons sought refuge on tho Cincinnati and on the United States special steamer Potomac. At 10 o’clock the Potomac went to investigate matters. * and all reports agree that I .lout. Beoja j min B. McCormick, the commander of j the steamer did great work. He went in close to St. Pierre and found that city had been bombarded with enormous stones from the volcano, and that the ruins left standing after the first great disaster had beer nearly razed. Mil lions of tons of ashes then covered the ruined city- Further south the smaller stones had destroyed the houses of the brave vil lagers who had stuck to their homes. Lieut. McCormick look cm board the Potomac 180 refuges, the oldest of whom was seventy-tVo years and the young est three days old. The lieutenant fed them and brought the part to Fort Do France- This work of rescue was diffi cult and dangerous. It is reported that the whole popula tion of the island is fleeing towards Fort De France. The consternation prevailing is indescribable. Mont Pelee is still very threatening. The French cruiser Suchet went on another tour around the island and did not take pert in the rescue work cf the Polomac. H. & B Beers’ Cotton Letter. i 1 (Special to News and Observer.) New Orleans, La., May 21. Large Egyptian buying orders and spinners ' calling cotton short to them by importers ' occasioned the sharp advance in Livcr ' peol. Our market responded by opening ■ 6 to 7 points higher on old crop months and 1 to 2 on new, subsequently ad vancing 13 to 22 additional oo -sear posi tions and 5 to 11 on late, owing to tho report that the Boer War had been set tled, and that peace terms would be 1 officially announced shortly. Near the close values eased off slightly on real izing, making the net gain 18 to 25 points ' on summer options and 5 to 11 on new. There was an improved demand for spots with sales of 2,900 at one-sixteenth ad ! vance. If this continues and speculation ■ again enters the article piriees may on : hance further. However, judging from Manchester cables reporting that 16,009,- 000 spindles there have been resorting to four davs short time weekly during the past eight weeks, and that all of these spindles will be closed down entirely dr.ring the holidays, it would seem that ' textile trade conditions in Great Britain are not good, especially as iho stocks of yarns are increasing. Crop prospects arc very favorable, therefore the prob -1 abilities are spinners will evidence no eagerness to lay in any new supply, considering the heavy discounts fall months are being sold at with the ohan ■ cc\s in favor of a free Sente mber move ment. We again urge our friends against operating in the summer months either 1 way, and suggest that transactions be continued to new crops products. H. & B. BEER.
