A few months ago we were told of such an application of electricity, wireless, by an Italian engineer, as would halt an enemy airship- and dash it to the earth. Not much heed seemed to be given to that news, but now we have the assertion that this Louis Rota has solved the problem of holding an object motionless in space.

The ma jority of the Synod, at this session, did not accept the proposition from Colonel Hail.

Things moved rapidly, the first session opened auspieiousiy and was carried through successfully. The first commencement was held in Holy Trinity cnurch with four graduates.

The people were divided and many were indifferent; there was money to be borrowed, notes to- be paid, notes to be renewed, building and loan dues to be paid. Often tuitions had to be used for- these purposes and the salaries were not stated or guar anteed. The building was completed promptly with the exception of three recitation rooms and tne library hall with an indebtedness of only $5,000. This was a splendid recordbut, sad to relate four-fifths of this debt i3 still being carried. For ten years the work of establish ment and service went on.

I state here parenthetically that after giving five yers of my best to this work and one year in university study I accepted a eail to a chair in the new Elizabeth College, at Charlotte, helped organize that college and taught four years in the same.
