FINANCIAL : QUESTIONS. Germs In the Malls. By Southern Associated Press. Washington, June 8. The first action of th. . flGice Department to prevent the spread of cholera by transmission of the germs through the mails was taken today. The following order, which was prepared several days ago, was signed by Postmaster General Bis sell this morning; "My attention ha3 been recently called to an article published in one of the medical journals of this country, in which the author, an eminent physician, offers to make analytical examinations of persons supposed to be affected with cholera, and suggests that if these speci mens be bottled and tightly sealed they may be sent to him by mail. "As this article has probably ob tained a wide publicity, and may therefore induce many physicians to attempt compliance with the writer's suggestion, I think it proper to announce that disease germs, discharges of any kind from dis eased persons, or other things of like character, no matter how securely put up, are of the nature of poison, and extremely dangerous to health, and that they are there fore absolutely unmailable. "Postmasters should see that no such things are allowed entry into the mails." Surrender of a Murderer. Nobfolk, Va., June 7.

By Southern Associated Press. Nett Yobx, June 8. The World interviewed nearly all the members of Congress by telegraph on the fol lowing questions: 1. Do you, with the present in formation, favor the repeal of the Sherman Silver Law ? 2. Do you favor the income tax ? 3. Do you favor the repeal of the State bank tax ? The World in reporting their an swers says : Many of the answers deviate so far from plain "yes" and "no" and in volve so many qualifications that no tabular statement would fairly rep resent the opinions they express. The important facts shown are that to the first question: Do you, with your present information favor the repeal of the Sherman silver law ?" There are eighty-six representa tives who sav practically -vea " while only eighteen say "no." Of the rest many who ciualifv their an. swer so strongly that they cannot fairly be placed in the affirmative column, show plainlv that their in clinations are in favor of the repeal. xuo sentiment ot the lower House on the question seems to ho nrar. whelming. The World had already nolld kQ Senate on the silver bill, and March t, last printed a table showing that the body stood for repeal thirtv- nine, against repeal twenty-eighf, noncommital sixteen. It will be no ticed that several who were non committal then are now in favor of the repeal. There seems to. ho nr. doubt that nearly two-thirds of the oenate will vote that wav. The new er question of income tax develops an interesting situation. Many who speak freely as to the Shrman Mil. 6vade or ignore this 'question, but 45 say squarely they favor it, 42 say that they do not. The South Western Congressmen are the most numerous advocates of auch n. ta-r On the State bank tax Question opinion is almost as one sided as in regard to the Sherman bill. Many dodge it entirely, but sixty say pos itively against repealing the tax, while only thiity favor the repeal. , 9 . United States Circuit Court.

The annual concert at St. Mary's was a great success as usual. The most remarkable feature of the pro gram, however, in the judgment of the writer, was the performance of the "Venetian Boat Song" of Liszt, by little Margaret Smedes only twelve years of age. We were struck with wonder and admiration to note in one so young an execu tion which would do credit to a much older and more experienced performer. Those who are ac quainted with the composition well know the difficulties which it pre sents, but the apparent ease and grace with which she overcame them, show what faithful applica tion will achieve, especially under so accomplished a teacher as Miss Clench. A brilliant future is predicted for the y oun g pupil. X. Nicholas Commits Suicide. Denver, Col., June 7. Special. Jhon D.

Mr. Poole was born in Raleigh and has many relatives and friends in this City. The funeral takes place in Fayetteville today. Some Attractions to Be at CI lea go. Mr. H. R. Jacobs probably con trols and manages more theatres than any other man on the globe. Therefore the title given him by the press, "The Amusement King," and his theatres as the "Imperial Cir cuit," are. S3 nonomous with his high managerial ability. During the World's Exposition the highest grade of attractions in America will hae extended engagements at these theatres. No finer temple of amusement ex ists anywhere than the Alhambra. situated on State street and Archer avenue. The cost of this buildin was over $1,000,000, and for its purpose is complete. During the World's Fair, this theatre will be devoted exclu sively to the productions of the Kimball Opera Comique and TRINITY COLLEGE. THE COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES IN PROGRESS.

Ike North Carolina Society. The Atlanta Constitution says : The North Carolina Society held an enthusiastic meeting last night. A constitution and by-laws were adopted. The society is to hold its meetings monthly on the second Friday night of each month. The following officers were elected : President, Capt. John A. Dodson; first vice-president, Prof. W. S. Yeates; second vice-president, Capt John H. Winder; secretary, Shepard Bryan; treasurer, John M. Sher wood; warden, James M. Johnson. The next meeting will be held on next Friday evening, June 9th, at 8 o'clock. The place of meeting will be announced later. All native born North Carolinians residing in At lanta and vicinity are eligible to ac tive membership and all such as are not already members are invited to join. The society determined to celebrate May 20th of each year in commemoration of the famous Meck lenburg declaration. On this occa sion, besides other exercises, the so ciety will be addressed by some prominent North Carolinian. t - Commencement at St. Mary's. Yesterday was Commencement day at St. Mary's School and a large and appreciative audience enjoyed the exercises. There were eight graduates. Miss Daisy Waitt, of Raleigh, was valedictorian of the class and Miss Annie Gregg, of Texas, was salutatorian. The di plomas were conferred upon the members of the graduating class. The choral services were beautifully rendered and every feature of the exercises was exquisite and highly delighted the cultured audience. The address before the graduating class was delivered by the Rev. Edward Benedict, of Oxford, and was a most ornate and finished ef fort. A more extended notice of the exercises will appear later.

The Wasington Evening News says: It has been suggested that the President is rather inclined to view with favor the appointment of a Southern man as Public Printer. It has been urged that the great majority of the chiefs and minor ap pointees in the Government Printing Office would come from the East and West, and that therefore mat ters should be somewhat equalized by giving to the South the principal appointment. The fact that there are two candidates from North Carolina might perhaps tend to militate against the chances of eith er, but it is understood that one of them stands ready to drop out of the race in the event that the other seems to have a show for winning. North Carolina has two candidates both of whom are practical printers and men of executive ability. One Mr. J. Abner Harrell, of Weldon is r N.

At 11 o'clock today, before the graduating class, students and friends of Trinity College, and a good audience of the people of Durham, -iev. R. N. Sledd, D. D, of Richmond, Va , preached the Bacca laureate Sermon. His text was taken from Chronicles, Book I, ch. verse: "Take heed now, for the Lord hath chosen thee be strong, and do it." Me spoke for an hour vfery elo quently and forcibly upon this sub ject applied to man's character. He said that before the death of David his son Solomon was made king to rule together with David; that when David was on his death bed he gave utterance to these words to Solo mon; that-Solomon was to carry out these as a command of God. Then he made the points: that God has a work for every individual, and every individual is duty-bound to do that work; that there is nothing, how ever insignificent, but that has a design and value; that no creature can do the work of any other crea ture; that men differ in talents, ac quirements and in positions in life, but that they agree "every man is a builder"; that intellect, seneibili- lties and will are the great forces t in shaping human character; that these three make up the moral tone of man; that appearances will not test. He made a magnifi cent comparison between the temple of Christ and the temple of man's character He said that the one is perfect with a variety of perfections and grand in every respect, but that the other is covered with foul ruins and that underneath it is a destroy ing element. His contrast of these two, as well as that of the soul and body, showed him to be. a master of description as well as a close dis cerner into the truths of life. He demonstrated that virtue is propor tioned to the knowledge of duty and to the performance of it; that knowledge and good conscience must be united; that man must make his own character; that pa rents and teachers may shape to a certain extent and give direction to man s lire, but that man must do the greater part himself; L 1 i 1 uol ieit aione, ior trod is the form of Christ and in His word. Then he addressed the graduting class. He told them to be bold and enduring, for they must certainly meet opposition; that they were going out from Trinity College, but not out of school, for they were en tering God's school. He asked them to remember that God is with them in all things, and that he would pro tect and guide them. Hon. A. M. Wad dell, of Wilming ton, N. C, addressed the Literary Societies at 4 p. m. His subject was "Socialism in America." He said that the foreign element in the Uni ted States is powerful; that if prop erly guided the social element will be of great value, but if not, it will bring tremendous force for bad; that throughout our country there is a great element of dissatis faction; that the Southern States have not as yet been much affected by Socialism; that we are now being strongly moved by economic and social theories and Questions: that the time will not be so Inner when we shall be greatlv influenced by this element; that the increase of property in the Soutu in the last ten years has been much larger in proportion to that of the North and West; that the South has been most prosperous in cotton raising and manufacturing; that soon on account of this rapid growth we must contest with the social istic influence; that its territory heretofore has been west of the Mis sissippi ; that socialism had its origin in ths war, the centralization at Washington in short in "pa ternalism" in the United States: that it3 origin is not old; that every thing since the war has looked to the gen eral government; that the United States government has helped in almost every way, and thereby the people look to the government and do not look to themselves at all; that social legislation is being made all over the country : that the Su Court of the United StateR th greatest gift of our constitution, has. it seems, been yielding to its influ ence; that the agricultural classes are always the last to be rocked bv socialism; that socialism is the most the country: that it needs the effort of every American citizen to guard our con- good government and destructive to religion; that it may be combat ted by making individuals mere strong -Individualism"; that office headers seem to act as if they had all the power and knowledge. Hia address waa live and of in terest to every one. He spoke very eloquently and forcibly on his sub ject. Trinity College students ill long be, mlluenced by his prophetic words. At 8 o'clock ihe alumci address was delivered by W. P. Andrews, Eeq.of Atlanta, Ga. Hia subject was "The Returns of Capital Inves ted in Education." Ho thinks that money spent in this way brings great and lasting returns, that it brings returns in bringing up soci ety and business to a higher stan dard point, that it is the Lest pos sible investment He spoke very forcibly of the success of the ad ministration of Dr. Crowell and with great admiration and grati tude of Messrs. W. Duke and Ju lian S. Carr. He thinks that Foot Ball has done much in building up Trinity College. He is a firm be liever in college athletics, and says that it does not damage the moral, religious or intellectual progress. His speech was most excellent The Buildings at the World's Fair. II. A. London in Chatham Record. The great buildings at the World's Fair are thirteen in num ber, and will strike every visitor with wonder and admiration at their immense size and architectural beauty. The name of each build ing indicates the purpose for which it is used. For instance, the Agri cultural building contains all the agricultural exhibits, such -as corn, wheat, oats, fruity, vegetables, &c, while the mining building contains mineral ores, precious stones, &c, and the art building contains pic tures, statuary, &c. The lar gest building is called the Manufactures and Liberal Arts building, and contains a more mis cellaneous exhibit than any other building, consisting of man's kilful handiwork in every conceivable form and design. If the: e was no other building, except this, and no other exhibits but those contained in it, the visitor could there see enough to repay him for his trip to the World's Fair. In it are the varied exhibits of every clime and country in the civiliz3d world, and its im mensity can be appreciated only by seeing it in person. In the first place thia building is the largest that has ever before been construc ted, the ground floor covering an area of thirty acres. Its di mensions are 1.GS7 feet in length onA 7C7 ,.4. , .. 9. hat man is j " le within in 7 s V cor lcenoor' JS 20ii witnin in fo t. i n . - cam mat i,uuu dwel lings, each 25 by 50 feet in size, can be placed within its walls. The floor alone consumed over three million feet of lumber and five ear loads of nails. There were forty -one car loads cf glass, enough to cover eleven acres, used in thia vast building. If any person should un dertake to walk through all the aisles cf this building he would have several days of steady tramp ing and become footsore and weary. Another Duel Fough Columbia, S.
