1RG1NIANS are proud of

of their state," says Senator
Daniels. "There are some paragraphs
in some of the chapters which are not
so brilliant as others! but, on, the
whole we are proud of every chapter

The occasion calling forth the re

John Smith and his fellow-freelooter8

republic of ours.
On May 25, 1607, now 290 years ngone,
JameMown island was occupied and
preparations begun for town-building.
This was 13 years before the landing
of the Pilgrim at Plymouth, so there
com be no doubt that this was the first
permanent white settlement upon the
land which now constitutes the United
States of America.
There are upwards of 15,000 Virgin
ians residing in the national capital,
makiner their livings as federal office
holders. That is to say, that some 3.000
office-holders from' Virginia support a
, colonv of 15,000 people, all of them in
tensely loyal to their state, and proud
of their lineage. Some 20 years ago
there began an annual exodus from
Washington to Jamestown to celebrate
the anniversary; and there will be no
hiatus in this procedure. The pilgrim
ages will begin two days before the an
niversary, tens of thousands of Virgin
ians will visit Jamestown, but the prin
cipal celebration this year will be in
Richmond,

If the young men who hang about

clerks or factory hands, or "looking
for a job," could only have a nine
foresight ami energy mjecicu mio
their character, they would quit, going
to the country and get at work to own
a farm. Of course, there is no sudden
mnisition of wealth to be expected
from a turn of the markets, but there
is a certainrty for any one, persiste.it
and energetic, of a comfortable mid
dle and old age. Wages uo not loot
as high as those of the " snaps " in
the city, but in fact they are much
better. The difference is more than
offset by board and lodging, and less
extra expenses ana cioming.
Farm wotk is not wnai u useu iw
be. Almost everything is cone uy
machinery. Hours are shorter and
food better. The labor is healthful
and requites a mind ready, willing and
well-informed. This character is
worth having. Farm wages are really
good, and an economical young man
can soon be able to own a smaii piece
of land. Thence on, his success will
depend on himself and not on others
or the chances of business over which
he has no control. He has a home
and an object in life. Small larms
anywhere in the settled portions o
the country will pay when well man
aged. Skill and application nowhere
pay better than on the tarm or garuen
patch.
The land ovner, well started and
out of debt, is a king among men. He
is independent of all kinds, has his
living first from his labor and can add
the refinements of life as means come
to him. He can have telephones and
trolley cars, newpapers and a dai'y
mail. He has time for study and
must keep up to the times in his
business. Later he may attain ease
and influence and live enjoyably to a
good old age. The trade ot the farm
er is certainly well worth cultivating
by any one who has grit and fore
sight. ,
Yet thousands will inanlly hang
about the cities, " putting up a face "
and living from hand to mouth with
no positive prospects whatever. These
dangle around do nothings think they
are men. wnv can t tney spunn up,
face some steady work, with sure
prospects, and be somebody in the

From the main shore it is separated by
a narrow stream and some marshy low

as Palmyra of the desert, and the only

But for the removal of the capital
to Williamsburg there might have
been a great educational institution
at Jamestown, because I'arson ninir,
the Scotchman from the University
of Edinburgh who founded William
and Mary college, was assigned to
the parish at Jamestown in the new
brick church, just before the trans
fer of the capital, lie had for a
short time been pastor of the parish
of Varinu, where Pocahontas was
one of his parishioners. She was the
wife of John Kolfe, nn extensive to
bacco planter, and was known as Ke
becca Kolfe; quite English, you know,
as compared with her aboriginal
name when she burned into history
by her rush to the rescue of Capt.
John Smith. Parson Blair often said
that if he had remained at James
town he would have founded the col
lege there an Institution which has
endured until this day, and will ever
endure.
The celebrated educational institu
tion was originally built of bricks
made on Jamestown island. They
were made In the style of the im
ported bricks, but were not iinport-

Ordors Must be Obeyed.
The Supreme Court of Pennsyl
vania, says the Dushore Jia icw, has
decided that a soldier on duty must
obey orders, and that he is not person
ally responsible when he does so.
The case that called out this decision
was that of young Wadsworth, a mem
ber of a Pittsburg regiment, on duty
at Shenandoah during the strike last
summer. The soldier was on guard
and detected a miner trying to pass
his line. He ordered him to halt,
and the order not being obeyed he
shot. The man was killed in his
tracks. The soldier was arrested for
manslaughter on his retutn home.
He applied for a writ of habeas cor
pus, and it was on the argument ot
this writ that the decision of the Su
preme Court was given. They said
that if the orders under which the
man was acting were too severe and
unjustifiable, the officer who issued
the orders was the one to hold, and
not the soldier. Wadsworth was re
leased from custody and exculpated
from the blame. This is a clear
warning for the future that soldiers
are on duty at scenes of disorder for
the purpose of restoring order; that
they have authority to kill, and that
they will kill if necessary. In other
words, General Gobin's "shoot to
kill" order has been upheld.
