Fhey Decide to Defy the Constitution— Legal Opinions, Brovx Fatxs, S.D., Jan. 2—Considerable ex- Gitement prevails among the temperance peo- ple over the stand taken by the majority of the saloon keepers. All saloon licenses expired with the year. With one or two exceptions, however, all the places were open yesterday as usual. The impression prevails among the Liquor dealers that they will be permitted to continue in business until the law to be by the coming legisiature for enforcing the prohibitory ameudment goes into effect. The chief saloon keeper of the city has closed his shop and announces that he will not open until the amendment is repealed under the ommbus bill wpon which South Dakota was admitted as Qstate. There is a iaw stil in force for prose- euting saloon keepers without a license and the Keepers are somewhat adverse to controversy in business and fear prosecution from the tem- perance people. VE THE ADVICE OF LAWYERS. Mrrcueie, §.D., Jan. 2.—The leading saloon keepers express themselves as determined to Keep open regardless of the prohibition clause in the constutition. They say that the opinions of able lawyers have been given them to the effect that though their licenses expired with the year 185¥ no penalties are attached to their continued selling, nor will be until there are legislative euactinents euforeing the probib- itory clause. Until such enactments are passed aud go into effect they propose to ruu wide open. MAY LET THEM RUN TILL JULY. Preane, 5.

MEMORY OF PRESIDENT PATTON. Services Held This Afternoon at How- ard University. Memorial services were held in the chapel of Howard university this afternoon at which the life and character of the late ex-President Patton were eulogized by a number of those who were intimately associated with him. The devotional exercises were conducted by Rev. A. W. Pitzer, D.D, Naturally the most notable address was that of the newly elected president of the university, Rev. J. E. Rankin, DD. PRESIDENT RANKIN'S ADDRESS. Dr. Rankin's remarks were as follows: “It fell to my lot when, in 1877, the trustees of the university were seeking a president to resent to them the name of Dr. Wm. W.

And he repeatedly came to me as a former trustee for conference our common interests and work. For seven years I was his pastor in this city, and when five years agoI resigned my charge he wrote the resolutions which the church unanimously adopted. I spoke memorial words from the pulpit when he was unexpecte bereaved of his noble wife, and I made installi prayer and wi I knew him intimately and always ready to beserviceable as a parishoner, preached with ability, was a liberal giver and had trained up his children to be helpful in all Christian work, as they always were, “President Patton's duties to the university did not prevent him from writing many articles for newspapers and reviews, His mind was al- wayson the alert, his pen was ready, his industry and perseverance were indefatigable. He was a natural controversialist. Himself an independent thinker, strong in his convictions, cool-headed und ingenious in argument, he was 8 formidable man to meet in debate. And if he did not always convince his opponents of the correctness of his views they were com- led to recognes both his earnestness and is ability. His religious convictions were in- tellectual rather than emotional Indeed, the coldness and strength of his intellect may have sometimes led him to underrate in others convictions equally correct with his own lem because they were so largely emotional. le seemed to combine in himself two qualities, not always united. As to the investigation of the truth he was a radical; while as to its practical applications he was 8 conservative; perha; more than most men, fulfilling the apostolic injuction: ‘Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.’ “PRESIDENT PATTON'S ADMINISTRATION of the affairs of thie university has given con- sistency and stability to the institution. The foundations have settled, so that there will be no cracks in the walls, Indeed, in a certain sense, and that not disqualifying to the dis- tinguished men who have preceded him—Gen. 0. O, Howard, Hon. John M, Langston, A. L. Barber, esq., Hon. Commissioner Smith—he is the first actual president the university ever had. His predecessors were largely engaged with other responsibilities, Coming to the piace in the maturity of his experience and his power, with a board of trustees always ready to second his aims and with « faculty in each de- Partment constantly improving in personnel and methods, the last twelve years have been years of real progress and he felta genuine satisfaction ou leaving that its autonomy was #0 complete and its future so well assure: “President Patton had no premonition that his earthly work wasso nearly done, He did not resign for any such reuson, He seemed —— at sixty-eight than many men at fifty.

Humanly speaking, nothing was more proba- ble than that he would pass the mile stone of four score years, with an old age serenc and kindly, rounding out uncompleted plans of study and work, But God saw that his real work was already done. For, as if to make it more complete, the last few weeks he bad de- voted to Sb, | a history of the university, | putting on record his own impressions as to the events out of which it spruay and the pur- pose for which it was founded, It was a kind | privilege granted him to be thus his own his- torian—to passin review the years he had spent here; before turning his back on them forever, to gather up the fragments of events that nothing should be lost, “It is @ pagan saying that no man should be counted happy till the day of his d Bat, like many other such ae . it has a Christian | agrny in it The oath ofa good man is like the last stroke of the artist's chisel when he completes a statue and draws back to pro- nounce it very good, as God did when He fin- ished creation.

That such has been its meaning to President Patton none who knew him can for one moment doubt. He rests from his labors and his works do follow him.’ Other addresses were made by Profs. Cook, Cummings, Warder, Craighead, Leighton and Hood, deaus of the several departmenta, a TO ATTEND A WHOLE DAY. High School Pupils Take Possession of the New Wing Today. The last seat was nailed down in the new wing to the high school building, which was recently completed, this morning, and with the last blow of the hammer the system of having many scholars at the high school attend only half a day gave up the ghost. The system, it will be remembered, was started two years ago on account of the cramped condition of the school, THE HALF DAY SYSTEM, At that time only the first year scholars were divided into two divisions, one of which at- tended from 9 to 12 and the other from 12 to 3 | p.m. Last year, however, it was found neces- sary to extend this «ystem to the second year classes also, All the time spent by these scholars at the building was given up entirely to recitations and their study was supposed to be carried ~=on at home, Principal Lane never approved of such restrictions as these, and in his 'S7-'88 report he | called for additional room and expressed his views as follows: “We regard as Cpatetrrmpe Paper bi pee opportunity to teach pupils how to study. Any cunt organization Pitch bri gs student and teacher together ouly for recitations is a serious drawback to training those under instruction,” The result was the building of the addition to the high school, of which full mention has been made mm Tie Stan, and today 1,400 pupils are | accommodated for a full days’ instraction. How long this addition wiil suffice is a question the authorities don’t want to think about, but unless some change is effected it will not be for long. In 1833 there were only 367 high school papila, while today the building swarms with 1 THE NEW WING is one hundred feet long by seventy feet wide and contains twenty-one rooms, By its aid twelve additional class rooms are secured, mak- ing the entire number of class rooms twenty- Co The new building also secures many other benefits, as a number of departments hitherto very much cramped have been moved into the larger room it contains and the old quarters given up for class rooms or study halls. In this way the library, the chemical tory, the physical laboratory, the botanical laboratory aud the armory have changed their situations and obtained space in which to breathe for the time being.

J. JEFFERSON DAVIS’ LIFE. ‘What His Autobiography Says About His Connection with the Confederacy, Belford’s Magazine for January contains the sutobiography of the late Jefferson Davis, the President of the confederate states, His ac- count of his connection with the confederacy contributes an interesting chapter to history. The autobiography says: When officially informed that Mississippi had passed the ordinance of secession, I took formal leave of the Senate, announcing for the last time the opinion I had so often expressed as to state sovereignty, and, as # consequence of it, the right of » state to withdraw its delegated powers. Before I reached homeI had been sppointed by the convention of Mississippi commander-in-chief of its army, with the rank of major general, and I at once proceeded with the task of organization. I went to my home in Warren county in order to for what I believed was to be a long and severe struggle. Soon a messenger came {from the provisional confederate congress at Montgomery, bringin, ; the unwelcome notice that I had been electe | eee president of the confederate states. jut, reluctant as I was to accept the honor, and carefully as I had tried to prevent the pos- sibility of it, in the circumstances of the coun- try IT = Nerds refuse ss = I Sousa: augurated at Montgomery, February with Alexander IH, Stepheus of Georgia as Yios residen' 4 From this time to the fall of the confederate government my life was part of the history of the confederacy and of the war between the Legere as is impossible, therefore, to follow it letail. In the selection of a cabinet I was relieved from a difficulty which surrounds that duty by the President of the United States, for there were no “‘sections” and no “party” distinctions, All aspirations, ambitions and interests had been merged in a great desire for confederate independence, In my inaugural address I asserted that necessity, not choice, had led to the secession of the southern states; that, as an agricultural people, their policy was peace and free com- mace =e the day it the fags poor Parts, not the system o! vernment en changed. vd THE FIRING ON FORT SUMTER. The removal of the troops from Fortress Moultrie to Fort Sumter, the guns of which threatened the harbor of Charleston, and the attempt to throw reinforcements into that fort—thus doubly breaking the pledge that mattems should be kept in statu quo—consti- tuted the occasion as well as the justification of the opening of fire upon Fort Sumter. Speedily following this event came the call for @ large army by Mr. Lincoln, and the secession of other southern states as a consequence of this unmistakable purpose of coercion. Virginia, which had led in the effort br peace conference to avert national ruin, wi she saw the constitution disregarded and the purpose to compel free states by military force to submit to och 4 power, an ordi- nance of secession joined confederate states, Shortly after this, as authorized by the pro- visional congregs, I removed the confederate capital from Montgomery to Richmond. none many indications of good will shown when on my way to and after my arrival at Richmond was the purchase of a very fine residence in Richmond by leading citizens, It was offered as a present, but, following a rule that had | thebees my action in all such cases, I declined to accept it. I continued to live in Richmond until confederate forces were compelled to withdraw from the defenses of the capital. ‘THE FLIGHT FROM RICHMOND, That event was not quite unexpected, but it occurred before the conditions were fulfilled under which Gen, Lee contemplated retreat. After Gen. Lee was forced to surrender, and Gen, Johnson consented to do so, I started, with # very few of the men who volunteered to accompany me, for the trans-Mi sippi; but, hearing on the road that marauders were pur- suing my family, whom I had not seen since they ieft Richmond, but knew to be en route to the Florida coast, I changed my direction, and after a lon: and hard ride found them en- camped and threatened by a robbing party. To give them the needed protection L traveled with them for several days, until in the neigh- borhood of Irvinville, Ga., when I supposed I couldsafely leave them. But hearing about night- fall that a party of marauders were to attack the camp that night, and supposing them to be pillaging deserters from both armies, and that the confederates would listen to me, I awaited their coming, lay down in my traveling clothe: and fell asleep. Late in the night my colored coachman aroused me with the intelligence that the camp was attacked, andI stepped out of the tent where my wife and children were sleeping and saw at once that the assailants were troops deploying around the encamp- ment. I so informed my wife, who urged me to escape. After some hesitation con- sented, and a servant woman started with me, carrying a bucket asif going to the spring for water. One of the surrounding troops ordered me to halt and demanded my surrender, [ advanced toward the trooper, throwing off a shawl which my wife had put over my shoulders. The trooper aimed his carbine, when my wife, who witnessed the act, rushed forward and threw her arms around me, intention, which was, if the trooper missed his aim, t. try to unhorse him and escape with his horse, Then, with every species of petty pillage and offensive exhibi- tion, I was taken from point to point until in- carcerated in Fortress Monroe. There I was imprisoned for two years before being allowed the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus, BIS RELEASE FROM FORTRESS MONROE. At length, when the writ was to be issued, the condition was imposed by the federel executive that there should be bondsmen in- fiuential in the “republican” party of the north, Mr. Greeley being specially named. En- tirely asa matter of justice and legal Fight, not from motives of personal regard, Mr. Greeley, Mr. Gerrit Smith and other eminent northern citizens weut on my bond, In May, 1867, after being released from Fortress Monroe, I went to Canada, where my older children were with their grandmother; my wife, as soon as permitted, having share: my imprisonment and brought our infant daughter with her, From time to time I obeyed summonses to go before the federal court at Richmond, until finally the case was heard by Chief Justice Chase und District Judge Underwood, who were divided in opinion, which sent the case to the Supreme Court of the United states and the proceedings were quashed, leaving me without the opportunity to vindicate myself before the highest feder: court. After about a year’s residence in Canada I went to England with my family under an arrangement that I was to have sixty days’ notice whenever the United States court re- wired my presence. After being abroad in ngland and un the continent about a year I received an offer of an appointment as presi- dent of a life insurance company. WIS HOME IN MISSISSIPPI, Thereupon I returned to this country and went to Momphis and took charge of the com- pany. Subsequently Icame to the gulf coast of Mississippi, as a quiet place whore I could prepare my work on “The Rise and Fall of the Confederate Government.” A friend from her infancy, Mrs. Dorsey, shared her home with me, and subsequently soid to me her property at Beauvoir, an estate of tive or six hundred acres, about midway between Mobile and New Orleans. Before I had fully paid for this estate Mra. Dorsey died, leaving me her sole legateo, From the spring of 1876 to the autumn of 1879 I devoted myself to the production of the historical work just men- tioned, It is an octavo book, in two volumes of ubout 700 pages each. I have also from time to time contributed essays to the North American Review and Belford’s Magazine, and have just completed the manuscript of “A Short History of the Confederate States of America,” which is expected to appear early in 1890, Since settling at Beauvoir I have persistently refused to take any active part in politics, not merely because of my disfranchisement, but from a belief that such labors could not be made to conduce to the public good, owing to the sectional hostilities manifested inst me since the war, For the sxme reason I have also refused to be w candidate for public office, although it is well known that I could at any time have been re-elected # Senator of the United States.
