GEORGETOWN LAW SCHOOL GRADUATES A Brilliant Scene at the Commence- ment at the Acad@y. PRIZES AND DIPLOMAS It is exceedingly doubtful if the Academy of Music ever presented a more beautiful ap- pearnce than !t did last evening. The oc- casion was the annual commmencement of the law department of G town Uni- versity. Flags, beautiful flo decorations and the presence of friends made the oc- casion one which the lawyer in after years will often picture in his mind's eye as being one of the most charming in his whole career. Upon the platform were seated the grad- | uates, members of the law faculty of | Georgetown University and others. The music for the evening was rendered by the | Marine Band, under the leadership of Prof. | ¥ The exercises of the occasion | Fanctulli. were preceded by several selections from the orchestra. Rev. J. Havens Richards, S. J., president of the university, then made a short introductory address. He congratu- lated the university upon the fact that a | large number of those who were to receive | a legal degree at its hands on this occasion were already the possessors of academic de- grees. This, he said, went to prove that the standard of those who entered the law school was gradually growing better. But while it was very important that the young men who applied for entrance to the law school should be possessed of a good edu- cation, the standard should not be placed so | high as to exelude those who, although their educational were yet possessed of much natural ability and an earnest desire to hgcome successful lawyers. The degrees were then conferred. Senator Manderson’s Address. Judge Martin F, Morris of the District | Court of Appeals introduced Senator Charles F. Manderson of Nebraska, who delivered the address to the graduating classes, The Senator began his talk with a few | Pleasant recollections of his early days+in | the law office, which, he sald, had been | brought to mind by the compartson of notes which he and Judge Wilson had been en- gaged in while seated together during the first part of the exercises. The reference to | Judge Wilson was the signal for a tremen- | dous outburst of applause, which showed | very plainly that the judge holds a high | place In the esteem of all those who are in | any way connected with the Georgetown school of law. Continuing, the Senator said | that while the contrasts of this life are often | remarked and frequently excite our special wonder, they are not so observable as its resemblances, or so abundant as its similar- | ities. Within'a short time, said the speaker, | it had been his lot to stand before three dif. | ferent graduating classes—one at West | Point, one at @ college for women in Mas- | sachusetts and the third the graduating | class of Georgetown Law School. The con- trasts of the three occasions were most |! marked, but the similarities were more re- | markable. The career of arms, the sphere | of woman, the pursuit of the law, were wide | apart, yet all united in reaching for th> highest’ citzenshio and for a result that shall be the best for the race. The speaker then proceeded to nay a glowing tribute to the men who devoted their lives to the instruction of those who | Were to follow in their footsteps, and con- | gratulatcd the classes before him upon the careful instruction which it had been their privilege to enjoy. He warned them, however, not to consider that the degrees which they had received meant in any broad sense that they were “masters” of the study of law. That position was not to be obtained even after many years of ar- duous labor, tn most cases, but the effort Was worth all it cost. Qualities of a Lawyer. The position of those who had preceded them in the practice of the law should be to point out the pitfalls and besetting dan- gers and to tell where the best places for | rest and refreshment were to be found. | In this connection the Senator reminded his hearers that “Order is heaven's first law.” It was a prime necessity that system and orderly arrangement should piay an import- ant part in ine makeup of him who would be the successful practitioner. Punctuality was of the greatest importance. A client might forgive anything sooner than a judg- ment by default entered against him be- cause his lawyer was behind time, Courte- sy was essential, not only to client and | iriend, but ic opponent and foe. Many a | case had been lost by abuse that excited | sympathy. Depth of thought and purpose were aeeded; the law was a jealous mis- tress whe needed constant wooing. The speaker quoted from Emerson that “Truth | is the summit of being,” and urged upon his listeners the forsaking of any acticn about | which 4 doubt arose in the conscience. There was no disposition more charac- teristic of the tyro in the profession than which prompts him to change the leng existing. To the man of few cases the jury system that has obtained so long under our jurisprudence is all wrong. He would ¢ e une unanimity now required in the finding of petit juries to the majority vote. He would destroy the right of chal- | lehge, peremptory or for cause. He would substitute the seif-opinionated, unsympa- thetic expert juror for the juror taken from | cne’s peers. He would tear down the mas- | sive edifice erected through centuries of | toil. The speaker reminded his hearers | that while it was easy to destroy it was hard to rebuild. i The showy part of a lawyer's life comes | when he is called upon to act as an advo- cate,bui the most important function which a lawyer occupied wes that of counsellor. Here discretion and wisdom must charac- terize his every word. ‘There could not be | with safety any jumping at conclusions. To him sitting in quiet and seclusion lif comes in all its forms and calls for his ad- | it on to better things, In conelusion, the speaker said: “If I were to select a single word to engrave over the | door of the lawyer's office, to write upon the pages of every book in his brary and burn into the very tablets of his mind, it | would be the word ‘fidelity'—fidelity to the | client, fidelity to the court, fidelity to him- | self.” The Award of Prizes. The annual award of prizes was then made by Judge Jere Wilson, as follows: Faculty cash prize of $40, to Francis M. Eline of Wisconsin, for the best essay from among the members of the senior class. Subject, “Stare Decisis.” Honorable mention was made of William McDevitt,whose subject was, “Moral Insan- ity as a Legal Defense.” Faculty cash prize of $25, to Eugene among the members of the post-graduate class. Subject, “Trial by Jury.” Mr. Joha W. Langley received honorable mention, his essay being entitled “The Le- gal Status of Married Women in the United 1 prize of a set of “Smith's Leading Cases,” to Eugene Rhodes of Kansas, for the best essay from among the members of | the senior and post-graduate classes com- bined. A cash prize of $40 to the member of the junior class maintaining the best average in recitations and examinations during the year was awarded to Charles Earl of Mary- land. A cash prize of $100 to the member of the senior class maintaining the best average | in recitations and examinations during the year was awarded to R. Ross Perry, jr., of the District of Columbia. | A cash prize of $50 to the member of the | senior class maintaining the second best average in recitations and examinations during the year was awarded to Robert H. Martin of West Virginia. A cash prize of %@ to the member of the raduate elass maintaining the best average in recitations and examinations during the year was awarded to John J.

The republicans of Virginia yesterday de- cided to make no fight in the congressional elections in the state next fall. The deci- sion was reached at a meeting of the state republican committee at Chamberlin's at noon yesterday. Some forty of the tifty members of the committee attended the meeting, and after an animated discussion of about four hours, during which the pres- ent political situation in Virginia was thor- oughly gone over, a resolution was adopted in which it was stated that the committee deemed it unwise, in view of the existence of an election law under which it has long been known that no honest election can be! held in the state of Virginia, to call con-| gressional conventions tor the purpose of making republican nominations during the present year. It was stated, however, that the committee had no intention of attempt- ing to prevent any person from running for Congress, or any people from nominating a representative if they felt disposed to sate their time and money in a contest whe! the result appeared to be a foregotié'¢ clusion. ts While the adoption of the resolution was not entirely unanimous, it is certain’ that no congressional conventions will be called | this year. One of the members present at | the meeting said that probably in some dis- tricts republican nominations for Congress would be made by outside factions. Gen. Mahone, who presided at the meet- ing, said last night that this attitude of the Virginia republicans was only the natural outcome of existing affairs. For his part he would not cast another ballot under the present circumstances. “Next year," he said, “we will not have the office-seeking | element to contend against, and if the feel- ing at present can be felied upon, there will not be any democratic party then, either.” — The Dog Sentenced. While Poundmaster Einstein is making | War on dogs ad various other antmals, cit- izens and policemen are engaged in doing away with some of them, and complaints of noisy and dangerous canines are made almost daily. Joe Green, a boy who is t |owner and possessor of an animal of the dog kind, found his way in the Police Court today because of the dangerous character of his canine, and the court imposed a sen- tence which will result in the death of the poodle. Under ordinary circumstances Joe would probably fight for his dog. Recently, however, his dog has done the fighting, and he failed to select dogs to battle against. For that reason the mother of a boy vic- tim of Joe’s dog cuused the arrest of the animal's master, and Judge Kimball heard evidence concerning the biting. “I didn’t know the dog was dangerous,” was Joe's defense. ‘But you know it now,” said Judge Kim- bail. “Are you willing to kill the dog?” ‘Yes, sir.” ‘Then 1 will impose a fine of $10,” said | the court, “and will suspend sentence in | order to give you time to pay the fine.” A Washington Enterprise. A Washington enterprise et Atlantic City is causing considerable talk among the so- journers at that resort. The Columbia Phonograph Company (general) has erected, fronting on the board walk, a building that in point of decoration exceeds any- thing ever seen in that vicinity. It has a front of thirty-four feet and a depth of 100. This is devoted wholly to the exhibition of automatic graphophones. There are a hun- dred of these machines arranged in the big exhibition room and they are kept supplied with attractive musical records. The build- ing, which has the appearance of the Moor- ish palace at the world's fair, was con- structed by Washington men; the interior decorations were all put in by Washington firms, and the electric lighting apparatus, stallation of the kind at Atlantic City, was put in by a Washington company.

Albaugh’s.—The Gypsy Baron” is a somewhat severe test of the qualities of an opera organization whose avowed mission is the presentation of works which amuse by their comedy and delight by their tune- fulness. The opera is undoubtedly both amusing and tuneful, but it presents mu- sical difficulties which bring it very close to the limit of grand opera, so far as exe- cution is concerned. The Strakosch com- pany, with its evenly balanced personnel, did not show to artistic disadvantage in Strauss’ melodious work last night. One of the most enjoyable performances of the season was the singing of Miss Laura Mil- lard. The sweetness of her voice has been most agreeably shown on previous occa- sions, but not until last evening was it displayed in its full richness of dramatic force. Fred Huntley threw a spirited aban- don into the role of the Gypsy Baron, which added to the pleasure which his singing gave, and Alice Hosmer's impersonation of the old hag was marked, as all her roles are, by sterling ability conscientiously man- ifested. Charles Bigelow plays the part of the hog-raiser with an unction that is amus- ing and a dialect which is a new evidence: of his extraordinary versatility. Mauri Hageman bestows his agreeable persona} upon the part of Count Carnero, and Ma- mi@ Gilroy is as graceful as can be in a Sypsy dance composed by the leader, Mr. W. H. Machette, to whose efforts as a di- rector so much of the success of the musical interpretation during this season is due. The stage is under the capable direction o Mr. John Bell. The cold air machinery which makes Albaugh’s so desirable a theater for summer performances will be called into service at once. National.—The third week of the comedy season opened last night at the National with Sidney Grundy'’s curtain elevator “Man Proposes,” in which Mr. Coote, Miss one of the most satisfactory pertormances yet produced by this company, which does nothing poorly. Mr. Coote's Capt. Hunting- ton Winter was so well done that if con- tinued through a three-act play make him a leading star in comedy, and Miss Sanders sparkled and tinkled as Belle Huntington delightfully, vens as Jane was as cute as could be. This was followed by “My Awful Dad,” with Bond as the devilish Dad, and a devilish good bad Dad is he. He has aged the part a bit since last si mer, but age seems to mak greeted as Cruetts, the waiter; Miss Galla- tn was a charming widow, plump and pretty; Miss Findlay got the house as Mrs. Big and the Misses Stahl, Sanders and Stevens, with all the others, were just as gcod as could be asked of anybody. Th Was a good house, too, and the night was not so cool that the steam heat had to be terned on. Nights which are that cool in Jvne are unseasonable, anyhow. Kerran's—Walking Match.—Dhey're oit at Kerran’s. That is, the female walkers in the six da: go-as-you-please match are off. A large crowd witnessed the start. Ney, the popular champion at this distance; her sister Mollie, the “untried,” Tremont, the pretty sprinter; Lite Wonder, ihe record breakcr; Hewett, the weary ploddet who makes many friends by her earnest. ness, and Ciara kb whom every one likes. ‘The races are managed by Hoagland, the champion heel-and-toe walker, and’ the score at midnight was: M. Harvey, 26 miles and 8 laps; A. Harvey, 29 miles and 1S laps; Tremont, 26 miles and 19 laps; Little Wo der, 20 miles and 10 laps; Hewett, 27 miles and 17 laps, and Bell, 29 miles and 2 laps. . ee green Epworth League Excursion.

Held for Identification, William Brown, the colored boy with many aliases, who was arrested Friday morning for window smashing at several stores in the northwest section of the city last week, as published in yesterday's Star, was arraigned in the Police Court this morning on four cha of burglary, and he plead guilt ment of the cases against the boy and held him in $1,000 bail in each of the four cases, to await the action of the grand jury. Pre- einet Detective McGlue of the third pre- cinct, who investigated the cases after the arrest of the prisoner by Policeman Kele- her and Private Watchman Trammell, re- covered two Mexican silver dollars and a lady’s handkerchief, on which is the name “Maulsby.” They are held at the station for identification. ee Kindergarten Normal Institute.
