When Governor Aycock came in in 1901, the college was again put under the control of the Board of Agriculture, with another board having no power except advisory.

The McNinch bill made the section of the Code apply to either husband and wife and provided another clause of pre-nuptial immorality, the idea be ing that it was a fraud upon the mai -riage relatiou. The Eller substitute makes the first section read if the husband shall com mit fornication and adultery. The act as to divorce, when concur red in by the House, is therefore as follows: . "Marriages may be dissolved and the parties thereto divorced from the bonds of matrimony, on application of the party injured, made as by law provided in the following cases: (1.)

Members of the legislature get all kinds of letters from all kinds of consti tuents. ; A very pathetic letter was re ceived one day last week by one of the most prominent members. It was couched in excellent language, written evidently by an educated woman. It asked the member to pass a law mak- ing it a felony for any womon to seduce a young man under 21 years of age from the paths of continence. The : letter gave many harrassing recitals of young men who had been ruined by the wiles of unchaste Delilahs, calling names and giving postoffice addresses of the victims. The Same Id Fighters.
