Other Features of the Commencement Exercises of the Maryland Agricultural College. ‘The commencement exercises of the Maryland Agricultural College were con- cluded yesterday with the conferring of diplomas on the graduates; the awards of special prizes and a grand ball at night. The address to the graduating class was delivered by the Secretary of Agriculture, Mr. James Wilson, and was a thoughtful and instructive dissertation upon the value of scientific knowledge to the farmer. In the course of his remarks Secretary Wilson also made the important announcement that he would request Congress to give him authority to establish a post-graduate course in agricultural education, under di- rection of the division chiefs and other scientists of the Agricultural Department. Secretary Wilson, in opening his address, said Maryland could well afford to sustain @ college for enabling her sons of the soil to increase their earning capacity. The un- educated man on the farm earned from $10 to $20, while the educated man easily earn- ed_ $50 to $100. Proceeding, Secretary Wilson declared that Congress should invite the graduates of the agricultural colleges to Washington to pursue studies in special lines, and then arnounced his intention as noted above. The graduating class salutatory was de- livered by C. V. Allnutt and the valedictory by D. C. Barnett. Mr. Charles Calvert awarded the diplomas and prizes in the ab- sence of Governor Lowndes, who was un- able to be present. Degrees Conferred. The degree of B. A. was conferred upon Claude V.

Emmons S, Smith Sets an Example Worthy of Emulation. There are several kinds of patriotism, all of which are praiseworthy and applauda- ble, but Washington has just been treated to a display of practical patriotism which is admirable from every point of view and well worthy of emulation. Mr. Emmons 8. Smith of the Boston variety store, Nos. 705, 707, 700, 711 Pennsylvania avenue, rec- ognizing the many hards soldiers must suffer in a campaign in the tropics, deter- mined to devote 2 per cent of the entire sales at his big establishment for the first three days this week to the purchase of such nesessitic needed by the District volunteers. der to swell the receipts Mr made a 10 per cent reduction days upon every article in his It of this gencrosity The Evening Star veived a letter from Mr. Smith this morn- which was as follow: 1 you ¥ nd my check for iS per my agreement to give 2 per my sales Monday, Tuesday and 3 Kk for the benetit of the District boys at the front and comforts as may be In or- Smith also EXCURSIONS. The sixteenth ann excursion of Wash- ington Lodge of Elks will be given to River View tomorrow, and the committee having the affair in charge has prepared an excel- lent program of entertainment for its guests. There is no body of men more competent to make a man enjoy himself than the Elks, and efforts have been direct- ed toward making the excursion this year sury all former events of the kind. ‘The Pentz will leave her wharf at 2:15 and 6:30 P.m., and it is expected that her capacity will be tested on each trip, Capital City Commander Knights of Malta, will give to River View next Tuesday. The boat will make three trips—at 10 a.m. and at 2 and 0 p.m. This will afford an opportunity to get relief from the hot and dusty city and enjoy the cool river breezes and the pleasant lawn of River View. The fast excursion steamer Samuel J. Pentz is now making daily trips to River View, but, in consequence of the pressure of societies, clubs and churches for chart: dates, the management has been unable to run any of those pleasant personally con- ducted trips that mark the View season. Commenciig, howev with next Sunday, on every Sunday and Wednesday until the end of the se: n the tri will be under the personal direction of Capt. B. 8, Ran- dall and his corps of assistants.

The treasury for the House of Mercy, an irstitution of the Protestant Episcopal Church for reclaiming the fallen and ‘pro- tecting young girls from the the allure- ments and snares of vice, is absoluteiy bankrupt. The sum of $770 is now required to pay indebtednéss to the butcher, grocer and other tradesmen. = Those in immediate charge of the hous serve without compensation, and, on a mod- erate and economical scale of expense, do most faithful an@ effectual work in re- claiming and keeping to a better life. The necessity for reformatories and shelters from the evil surroundings and pernicious influences which overcome the weak and urguarded cannot be questioned, and on that account all who realize the financial needs of this work and the duty and priv- ilege of having a share in maintaining it are earnestly asked for as large a dona- tion as they can make toward the sum of $770 immediately required. Subscriptions to the yearly maintenance find of $3,000 are also earnestly desired.

Offense Alleged to Have Been Com: mitted in 1896—Young Man of Excellent Reputation. Justice Bradley ordered a bench warrant issued yesterday for the arrest of Israel C. Kollock, who had been convicted in 1896 of violating the oleomargerine laws. Kol- lock was called for sentence yesterday and failing to respond the court ordered the bond of $1,000 given by Joseph Wilkins as bondsman to be forfeited, and a bench warrant and writ of scire facias issued. Armed with the warrant, Deputy James Springman of the marshal's office went to Kollock’s store, No. 401 A street southeast. The store is a green grocery, and in it Springman found Kollock waiting on a customer. The deputy informed Kollock of his errand, and he was completely unnerved and begged not to be locked up. Springman replicd that he had no power but to obey the court's order, but he wait- ed till Kollock served other customers, who came in and who were kept in ignorance of the little tragedy going on before them. Then Kollock was taken to the marshal’'s office and the clerks in charge there told the deputy to show him every considera- tion. He was, however, ordered to be taken to jail. On the way, Springman stopped with his prisoner at No. 302 D sireet northeast, where his mother and grandmother, aged eighty years, are stop- ping. The mother is very fll. Both women were greatly distressed, the grandmother wringing her hands and crying out, “I must go, too! I must go, too!” The pris- oner alse burst into tears. It was a very trying scene for the deputy, whose good nature and kind heart are well known to the thousands of rrisoners he has handled. The Only Support. Kollock is the only support of the two women, and has r2mained unmarried in order to fulfill his duty toward them. It is said he is a member of a church, a young man of fine habits and warmly indorsed by the prominent men of Southeast Washing- ton. Koilock, in spite of the effort of friends, spent the night in jail. ‘The court record shows that the prisoner was sentenced July 6, 1896, to pay a fine of $550 total of fine and costs in two cases for violating the oleomargarine laws. He ap- pealed, and Joseph Wilkins gave bond for $1,000. December 5, 1896, the Court of Ap- peals issued a mandate affirming the judg- ment of the Supreme Court of the District. The sentence of July 6 was ordered car- i into effect December 14 of that year. ertheless, nothing was done in the mat- ter until yesterday, when the defendant was called to serve sentence and did not re- spond. Kollock must lie in jail until he pays $550 or is released through other legal proceed- ings. a CHARGE TRESPA Suit In Which Maj. George A. Armes is Defendant. Major George A. Armes is made defend- ant in a suit brought by Mrs. Anna G. Lowe and Mrs. Kate Guthrie, who rented from him “Fairfield,” his country place on the line of the Chevy Chase electric rail- road. The plaintiffs declare that March they rented ‘Fairiield” for months $2,000, payable monthly at $333.33.
