Leads all North Carolina Dailies in News and Circulation GREATEST PROSPECT IN ’VARSITY’S LIFE President Venable Says Enrollment at University Will Be Greatest in His tory. THE NEW AND THE OLD Work in Every Branch of University Life Full of Enthusiasm and Charged With Progressive Spirit. Plans Announced for the Coming Session. IJY YV. If. BAGLEY. Chapel Hill N. C., July 30. —From present indications as compared with conditions at the same period of va cation dYiring recent years, the Uni versity will open on September ~th. with the largest attendance in its history—another step toward the cov eted thousand attendance which has long been the ambition of all friends of education in North Carolina. President Francis P. Venable is happily studying tire situation. The steady growth of the past few years and the promise of another progres sive steu forward next month are calculated to make those who are most keenly interested enthusiastic. Speaking of the ooening of the one jljgS) JOSHUA WALKER GORE. Dean of the School of Mining at State University. hundred and ninth session of the uni versity, Dr. Venable said to me: “From the correspondence to date, the inquiries for catalogues, the en gagements of rooms, and the assur ances from old students and particu larly from those who have been care fully preparing for entrance to the University, we are confident that the coming year will be the greatest in the history of the University. The attendance has steadily grown each year during the present administra tion and we have sufficient assurances to justify the prediction that every phase of life at the University will show an even more tadvanced spirit with the opening in September.” That is the way Dr. Venable talks of the coming year. The same opin ion is held by every member of the faculty with whom I have talked, and this same spirit pervades the en tire Hill. People here are proud of the 'Var sity's historic past. "They appreciate the University of days gone by ami pay full tribute to the roll of honor of the State of North Carolina, which is almost a roster of distinguished alumni of the University. But peo ple here are inclined to put aside the historic Hill for the new and ad vanced ’Varsity. There is such a dif ference that old alumni returning after years of absence look upon this time honored and sacred seat of learn ing with increased gratification. Once classic only, now many-sided in its life and lending help, giving strength and building character for every walk of life the University has grown into the richest ideal for the central figure in the great educational sys fem of the State. In equipment the University is per haps more progressive than any of DR. EREV ALEXANDER. Dean of the University and Professor of Greek Language. the Southern educational institutions. It labors under disadvantages which other institutions with rich endow ments do not have to face, but by prudent management and studious efforts to obtain the best to be had. and 12 waste nothing, its years of usefulness continue and with each year it gains strength and power and influence. The equipment includes eleven scientific laboratories, perhaps su- The News and Observer. DR. FRANC IS P. VENABLE.

Electric lights, water and sewerage and central heating sys tems add to the comfort, and health ful conditions which are synomomus with the name Chapel Hill. During the past few years the Carr building, the Mary Ann Smith Building and the Alumni Building have been com pleted at an aggregate cost of $75,000 i and other improvements of a per manent character involving an ex pense of probably $60,000 additional. The various departments of Uni versity life have undergone greater change during the past ten years than can be ordinarily understood by those who have not personally \ isited Chapel Hill. The University with its graduate and collegiate de partments, and the schools of min ing, law, medicine, pharmacy and the Summer school offer such varied pur suits of study as are to be found only in the greatest educational insti tutions of America. Aside from those departments of the University with which the gen eral public is familiar, there is most valuable work under (he charge of learned instructors, who are accepted authorities in the scientific world. The trustees at their meeting, made a division in Biology, leaving Dr. Wil son at the head of the department as l'rofessor of Zoology, Dr. Coker hav ing charge of the distinct department of Botany. Three assistants lend their best endeavor in the work of DR. HUBERT ASHLEY ROYSTER.

Wilson, Profes sor of Biology, has just completed for the United States Government a valuable monograph on the subject, of sponges. Dr. Wilson is an accepted authority on certain sections of zoolo gical work, and the government re fers to him with distinction in this branch of scientific work. A part of the work of the department under Dr. Wilson is to aid in the training of medical students in the of histology and general biological work and this greatly adds to the strength of the medical department. In the Department of English North Carolinians are glad to note the con tinuance of Dr. Charles Alphonso Smith as professor of English lan guage. The call which was extended to him to preside over the University of Tennessee, one of the best insti tutions of learning in the South and his decision to remain in North Car olina, the compliment paid Dr. Smith by another. State and the compliment he paid the State of his nativity have given pleasure to all. The depart ment of English is one of the strong est manned departments in the South. Drs. Hume and Smith, Prof. Gra ham. Mr. Bernard and Mr. McKie unite in making an enviable reputa tion for this department. The student begins his freshman year with thorough work in English composition, being given three or four themes each week. This work is con tinued in the sophomore year and de veloped into the higher branches of literature in the junior year. When the English course at the University has been completed the student is a master of his own language. In the Department of Chemistry the University will maintain its es tablished standard. It is recognized!

Dr. Venable will as usual give his per sonal attention to the Department ot Chemistry, and while the University regrets the loss of Dr. Charles Bask erville, the Smith Professor of General and Industrial Chemistry, provision will be made to sustain the reputation of the University of North Carolina in this important department. A matter of pride is the uniformly high standing taken by graduates of the Medical Department of the Uni versity. The work in the department at Chapel Hill and in the depart ment at Raleigh is of the highest standard and compares favorably with the work of the most important medi cal colleges of the North. It has b?en an invariable rule in this .State that graduates of the University depart ment of medicine take first rank In the examinations before the State Board of Medical Examiners. The growth of this department has been phenomenal. Twelve years ago the department had less tjian ten students and this year there have been over eighty regular students working for the degree of M. D. At Chapel Hill the department is under (he dean of tlie Medical College, Dr. R. H. White head, while at Raleigh the dean is Dr. Hubert A. Royster. It is a fact that there is greater deman 1 today for first class phar macists than can be supplied, but. it is not due to the lack of opportunity for young men to properly pre pare themselves for excellent posi tions. The department of Pharmacy at the University is under the imme diate charge of the dean, Dr. Ed ward Vernon Howell, one of the ablest instructors in his profession. Under his supervision the work of this de partment is thorough and efficient. Students in this department have upheld the reputation of the Univer sity in other lines and have taken first places in the examinations be fore the Board of Pharmacy ever since the department first turned out JUDGE JAMES C. MacRAE. Dean of the Dcpurtmenl of Law at the University. a graduate. All have secured good positions and the department is due much credit for its work of raising (he standard of pharmacists seeking positions with the North Carolina trade. Last year there were 55 stu dents in this department, which re quires the entire lower portion of th new west building for its labora tories, eight professors and nine as sistants being engaged in the work. Judge James C. Macßae, the dean of the Department of Law, is turning out barristers of unusual ability. The present summer school of the Law Department, is the largest in its his tory and the regular Law School promises to he even stronger this year than heretofore. It is a mat ter of gratification to the friends of the University that its law students have always taken the first honors be fore the Supreme Court of this and other States when applying for license to practice their chosen profession. Lucius B. McGehee. an old Ralelgh ite, who has for a number of years been on the editorial staff of the .lar gest law publishing house in the world, will enter on his duties as a member of the law college faculty in September. One feature of the life of the Uni versity of North Carolina which ap peals to all classes and is deserving of iHe great praise which it receives on all sides, is the work of the liter ary societies. The brilliant record established by winning all of the three debates with Vanderbilt University, both of the two with Johns Hopkins and four out of seven with the Uni versity of Georgia, making a total of nine won out of twelve, has reflected great credit upon the two literary so cieties which have done so much to DR.

The two societies have large and enthusiastic member ship and interest begins for a student in his freshman year when he begins debating within his own society and perhaps becomes an inter-society de bater. The work of each society is supervised by a committee of the fac ulty and the young men receive spe (Continued on Page Two.) FATHER OF PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM The Debt North Carolina Owes Archibald De bow Murphy. AHEAD OF HIS TIME And He Did Not Live to See the Great Things That Existed In His Faith and In His Patriotic Love of His State. Archibald De Bow Murphey. Archibald D. Murphey is justly re garded as the foremost educational statesman North Carolina lias pro duced. About a year ago his kins man, deeply interested in North Caro lina history, offered a gold medal to the graduate of the A. and M. Col lege in Raleigh who would write the best historical paper. That medal was won by Mr. Eugene C. Bagwell, of Raleigh, who wrote on the life of Judge Murphey. His paper is as fol lows: The subject of this sketch was born in 1777, in Caswell county, about seven miles from Milton. He had two broth ers and four sisters. His father took a prominent part in the Revolutionary War. When a boy, Murphey attended the school of Rev. Dr. Caldwell, of Guil ford county, this being one of the only three known schools of any conse quence in the State at that time. Af ter leaving this scliobl, he remained at home for two years. He says that the only books that he could obtain to read during this period were a feu on theological subjects end, by chance, Voltaire’s History of Charles XIII., of Sweden, a copy of Roderick Random, and an abridge-n-m of-()oa Quixote. He entered bte University of North Carolina in 1796. graduating, cum laude, in 1799. His record there was such that in his Alma Mater he was appointed Professor of Ancient Lan guages, which position he held three years. During this period, he devoted a part of his time to the study of law and, in 1802, was admitted to the Bar. He continued his studies under Wil liam Duffy, of Hillsboro, who was at that time one of the most distinguish ed lawyers in the State, and to whom, afterwards, Murphey became greatly attached. With his Indomitable energy, his highly cultured literary taste, and overflowing with the attributes ot statesman and philosopher, his rapid rise as a lawyer is not to be wondered at. He was elected State Senator from Orange county in 1812, and served in that capacity continuously until 1818. It was during those six years of state service that lie shone out so brilliant ly, and it is for his work during this period of his life that lie will be re membered as long as there is a history of North Carolina. His one, all-absorbing thought and aim seemed to be the welfare of his native State. His ideas for the bet terment of North Carolina seemed to rest along three great lines, i. e., in ternal improvements, research, and the establishment of public schools. What better ideas than these could there have been for the advancement of the State, scientifically or industrial ly? It is a well-known fact that the greatness of any commonwealth de pends upon these things. His plan of internal improvements was vigorously opposed and attacked by some as being a great swindling scheme. Nevertheless, Mr. Murphey won, and a large sum was invested in surveying and constructing canals and public roads. Aside from the com mercial advantages obtained, the State has been repaid ten-fold for the information both topographical and statistical, which the engineers fur nished the State from these surveys. Mr. Murphey was continuously on the legislative committee of inland navigation and was several times chairman. His memoirs fin the in ternal improvements contemplated by the General Assembly of North Caro lina, and on the resources and finances of North Carolina will always reflect credit on his memory'. As to his arousing native pride and advertising the State to the world, his memorial to the General Assembly of North Carolina in 1825 showed that he had been engaged for several years in collecting and arranging materials for an extensive historical and scien tific work on North Carolina. The excellent plan on which he decided to write the history was divided into seven parts as follows: (1) An account of the Discovery of America. (2) The aboriginal history of North Carolina. (3) The Colonial History of North Carolina. (4) History of North Carolina from the time of her becoming a sovereign State in 1776. (5) Physical geography', soil, cli mate and meteorology of North Caro lina. (6) Geography and Mineralogy of North Carolina. (7) Botany of North Carolina. It is well to say here that he was self-taught in most of these scientific subjects. Judge Murphey’s appeal was a fruitless one for it war. never acted upon favorably, although he made another appeal to the General Assembly' in 1827. Soon after his death, his collected materials were scattered. Judge Murphey’s greatest fume is due to the indefatigable interest he took in public instruction and he is known today as the father of our pub lic school sy'stem. On December 19th, 1816, Judge Murphey, in behalf of the educational committee, submitted to tiie Legislature, a report urging the establishment of a “judicious system ot public education.” This report, draft ed by himself, is worthy of close study. The first pari is devoted to a learned dissertation upon the benefits of edu cation and the needs of the Universi ty' of North Carolina. Following this, are suggestions for a school system. “This general system,” says the re port, “must incclude a graduation of schools regularly supporting each oth er, from the one in which the first ru diments of education are taught to that in which the highest branches of sciences are cultivated. It is to the first schools in this gradation that your committee beg leave to draw the attention of the Legislature at this time, because in them will be taught learning indispensable to all —reading, writing, and artithmetic. These schools must be scattered over every section of the State, for in them edu cation must be commenced, and in them it will terminate as to one half the community. They will be the most expensive to the State; but they will be the most useful, Inasmuch tis all the citizens will be taught in them and many of the citizens are destined never to pass into any other.” No action was taken by this Legis lature on the subject, except that Judge Murphey was appointed chair man of a committee to investigate the subject more fully and report at next session. He was much interested in his subject, and, before submitting his report in 1817, he not only made a careful study of education in the New England States, but he also visited AII 1111 lAI I D. MI RPHY. Europe to examine the Continental school system. 'The 5 resTijt.s of his study and observation are embodied in the report of the committee, a volum inous but well written and suggestive document. In 1818, Mr. Murphey was elected, by the Legislature, a Judge of the Su periour Court of North Carolina, which position he filled with patience, courtesy, dignity and justice, for two years; after which he again resumed his duties as lawyer, becoming an adept in the examination of witnesses and arguing cases before juries. It is interesting to read an account of the case of Burrow vs. Worth in Ran dolph Superior Court in 1830. Al though there were many famous men of this time, such as Henderson, Cam eron, Norwood, Nash, Seaweli, Yan cey, Rtatfin, Badger, Hawkes, Mangum, Morehead and others, still Judge Ar chcibald De Bow Murphy was the shining light of them all. Some men. whose opinions are to. be valued, con sider Judge Murphey as one of the three greatest men this State has ever produced. His address before the two literary societies of the University of North Carolina aroused much favorable com ment at the time and is also very fa vorably mentioned today. Trusting too much to the prosperity of the times, he invested all of his money in carrying out his pet schemes, which were not supported by the State as they should have been; con sequently, he lost everything, llis later life was marked by adversity and poverty. He died in Hillsboro, February 3rd, 1832, and is buried in the Pres byterian church-yard of that town. There are two surviving children, Dr. V. M. Murphey, of Macon, Miss., and Lieutenant P. U. Murphey, of the United States Navy. Judge Murphey was characterized by a scrupulous neatness and simpli city in his appearance as well as in his life itself. His hand-writing and the style in which he wrote evince the same characteristic qualities. He was polite and dignified, pleasing all by his grace and earnestness of man ner as well as by the smooth flow of his speech. He was proficient in Greek, Latin and French, reading the works of standard authors for his own delectation. One of our esteemed lady friends, who is a relative of his, says that the man who is supposed to have been Marshall Ney was at one time Judge Murphey’s amanuensis. In the life of a man whose whole interest was for his fellowman, even the most minute details are interest ing, yet accounts of him, whose mem ory is cherished by all true North Carolinians, are indeed meagre. His efforts were, perhaps, not as some see it, well-directed, and his plans did not mature, yet, with men as with the gods of old, true effort is accounted success, although he himself regarded his life as a failure. TKfe hero of heroes, because of his devotion to what he considered his duty, was at his death made a demigod. EUGENE CLEVELAND BAGWELL. Raleigh, N. C. Hard on Editors and Lawyers.

Woods, Tobacco and Agricultural and Game Products Combine to Make a Unique Show ing. (By 11. H. Brimley. Commissioner General.) St. Louis, Mo., July 29. —North Carolina is one of the few States which keep up a permanent display cf their natural resources on an ex tensive scale. This is in the public museum at Raleigh, and the growth of the museum reflects to a great ex tent the advance made by the State in its exposition displays. Since the Chicago Fair of 1893, the North Caro lina State Museum has quadrupled the floor space devoted to exhibits. The inference is obvious. . At the St. Louis World’s Fair this State museum's influence is felt. In the exhibit in the Mining Building l shown the most complete and compre hensive collection of cut and gem material exhibited by any State. About twenty varieties are represent ed and among them are many speci mens of surpassing merit. In golden beryl, blue and geren beryl (Aquama rine) are a number of stones of pure water and high value, and in other varieties of beryl are a fine lot of ca bochcen emerald and emerald matrix. In corundum gems the oriental ruby, sapphire and topaz are conspicuous— the former, particularly, being shown in fine colors and quality. That beau tiful variety of garnet—the rhodolite —is there in quality tao, and the dark pyrope garnets are ex hibited in a variety of colors and sty.es of cutting. That emerald green spodu mene, the Hiddenite, is shown in sev eral small cut specimens and quite a lot of material in the rough. Some of the colors in cut amethysists are exceptionally good for native stones and several clusters of fine amethyst crystals show the source of supply. There are cases devoted to the com moner and semi-precious stones, which include cairgorm, rock crystal, citrune quartz, sunstone, rose and opalescent quartz, camedian, etc., and the list is topped off with one small diamond —a gem rare anywhere, but particularly so on the North American continent. „ . But this rich mineral State shows other things besides gems, although as a feature attractive to the eye and likely to make a permanent impression on the mind the brilliant beauty of the contents of the gem cases is al ways paramount. In mica, for in stance, North Carolina has always been pre-eminent, and the display of this useful and now necessary mineral is well beyond anything ever before attempted along this line. At the great Chicago Fair eleven years ago, electricity was comparatively in its infancy and only crude mica as mined and the sheets as split and cut squares were shown in the exhibit. Here things are different. Similar lines of block, sheet and cut mica are display ed, but alongside of them are quanti ties of the material cut to the shapes as used in electrical construction — some of them mere gun-wad looking discs, some in the shape of washers and some in the indescribable shapes cut to fit the special places in which they are to he fitted. A lot of th*' products, too, are exhibited, calling at tention to the uses of mica as a con stituent in some lubricants, in wall paper, in the production of the insu lating material called micanite and in various other ways. A new mineral industry that has sprung up since the Chicago Fail’ is that of monazite mining. The mona zite sand is washed from the contain ing soil mush as gold is washed from the placer diggings, and the heavy gurnet and iron impurities contained in the washed product are afterward eliminated by running the impure ar ticle through a magnetic separator, the product of that being the pure ar ticle of commerce. A large series of specimens of this interesting and valuable mineral is shown, exhibiting all the steps in the process of mining and cleaning, 'Seven to the finished in candescent mantle for gas lighting that we all know so well. In the beautiful white clays of the State a departure has been made from the old way of merely showing the raw material. Along with the clays themselves are exhibited here in this display a beautiful lot of chinaware, tiling and enamelling brick, equal to anything seen in the building, showing the finished product alongside of the crude clays; and the added interest to the exhibit is manifold. The building stones are shown as in Chi cago for the general collection, but an added feature of great interest and value is the very fine series of polish ed spheres, turned and polished col umns and finished monumental work that are ranged along the front. Some of the most beautiful of these were not even discovered at the time of the great 1893 exposition, and others were not sufficiently opened up for speci mens to be readily secured. So alto gether, the building stone exhibit which the State is making at St. Louis is at least a hundred per cent, more beautiful and interesting that it was eleven years ago. Os course the silver and gold ores, the copper aud the; J 16 Pages t SECTION ONE t ♦ Pages 1-8 | ♦4444444444444444 Price Five Cents. iron, the corundum and other abra sives are here in full lines. All fresh discoveries of the past ten years are in evidence, and it is safe to say that this mineral exhibit of North Carolina is two to one ahead of that made at the Columbian Exposition. In the Palace of Forestry, Fish and Game, North Carolina has a display of which any State in the Union might be proud. The exhibit of timber spe cimens of commercial woods, so far as wide variety and market value are concerned, is probably the best in the building. The section of the 800- years-old yellow poplar from Chero kee county, attracts much notice; the great six-ton black walnut log from Jackson county, together with some finished veneers from other cuts of the same tree; the beautiful specimens of white pine, sand hickory, curly poplar, yellow locust, and many of the beautiful and valuable woods collected since the Chicago Fair, have, in the aggregate, doubled the large exhibit made by North Carolina there. The finished wood products, such as 48-inch turned bowls, berry shipping crates, handsome household furniture, finished ceiling, llooring and wainscot ing, fine fiber and liquid products of the leaf, handsome split baskets, na tive (French) briarwood pipes, etc., may all be credited to the progress of the last eleven years. Progress is the watchword all through. In the Fish and Came De partment various new specimens illus trating the commercial and sporting features are shown, while much addi tional interest is given by the display of a series of the more modern hunt ing and fishing tools and appliances that are the most suitable for taking the different varieties of game birds, animals and fishes found in the State. These have been loaned the exhibit by the different manufacturers. A com plete whaling outfit from Beaufort, N. C., which has been actively employed in the whale fishery there for twenty live to fifty years, is shown for the first time. A fine lot of high-grade native furs are exhibited in the raw state and as dressed skins, and in an adjoining case are shown the animals from which the different furs are de rived. This exhibit is about three fold as large as that made by NoTth Carolina in Chicago, and its value ana interest to visitors are proportionate ly great. One of the unique displays the State is making is that of tobacco in the Agricultural Building. A large octa gonal pagoda, with a cornice line IB feet above the fioor, is covered and decorated with the different c&lors and grades of granulated smoking to bacco and the beautiful bright yellow “golden leaf.” Several interesting le gends are displayed on large shields on the sides of the structure, showing facts of interest as to the history and \alue of the North Carolina tobacco crop. Tobacco was first given to the Old World from North Carolina, and not from Virginia, as often stated, the returning expedition of Sir Walter Raleigh taking it back from Itoanoke Island in 1592. Another fact is that Pitt county, North Carolina, grows more bright tobacco than any other county in the United States. On top of the octagon is a great twenty-five foot globe, with a map of the world worked out in light and dark tobacco, the light showing the water areas and the dark the land. This structure is the striking feature of the row of “Special” exhibits running down the center of the great Palace of Agriculture, from end to end. The State’s display in tobacco is so far ahead of that made at Chicago that no comparison can well be made. In the general exhibit in Agricul ture, North Carolina is making a valu able display of the many products of the soil grown in the State. The in stallation is plain and is conspicuous in avoiding the over decoration so many of her sister States are indulging in, but the exhibit is very meritorious and contains many valuable lessons to the seeker after agricultural knowl edge. The display of grains, of peanuts and of the many varieties of cotton, both in seed and lint, are all fine, and much good must result from their showing. A lot of cotton mill machinery is a feature of the Special Cotton Section, and the Charlott'e firm exhibiting it no doubt will reap a reward. Th*s is the first time the State has made a show in this line of exhibits. The Horticultural exhibits in gener al are at this date mostly of cold stor age or preserved fruits. North Caro lina has a meritorious exhibit of la*t year’s crop of apples. Everything combined to make for a poor showing in this line—poor crops, a premature ripening owing to drought, difficulties of collection and transportation—and the wonder is that the State has any thing to show at all. But what is ex hibited is good, and the flavor of these apples from the mountain counties of North Carolina is not surpassed any where. At Chicago North Carolina showed only a few jars of preserved fruits and wines, so this display of fresh fruits is a decided advance over the State s exhibit there. Enough remains on hand in cold storage to keep up good displays for the remainder of the ex position. Altogether it may be said that the exhibits which North Carolina is mak ing at St. Louis are fifty per cent, larger in the aggregate and at least that much in advance in merit and usefulness of those made at the Columbian Exposition.'
