Wesleyan Female College opened Its
doors yssterday morning for the sixty-
eighth sesston with the brightest future
for a prosperous year the Institution
has ever known. The attendance at
the opening was far above the most
sangulne^xpectatlons of the authori
ties and President Guerry believes that
the Increase will be such as to break
all previous records. When the open
ing took place yesterday there were
over 250 young Irfilferf' matriculated at
the college and within the next two
daye the number will be very greatly
Increased. Last night there were more
more than 260 young indies In atten
dance for the opening year.
The prospects fer a great year In the
educational work which Is being done
at Wesleyan are exceedingly bright
A very large attendance had been ex
pected by the president of the institu
tion, but more young ladles arrived
at the college yesterday than had been
expected and It was necessary to make
additional room. Arrangements were
made for those who arrived without
having notified any one of their com
ing. Several of the teachers of the
college have moved out from rooms
In the college building In order to pro
vide space for boarding students who
came during yesterday. These teach
ers occupy rooms out In town.
President Guerry expects the atten
dance at Wesleyan to reach 300 at tho
beginning of the work this morning.
The college Is crowded to the utmost
and he is very busy making room for
those who are yet coming. Thfi au-
thorltlea will be occupied during the
remainder of the week with work of
matriculation and the placing of the
new students. The work Is much
greater than had been expected and
the president, with hla co-workers. Is
engnged In caring for the large stu
dent attendance.
The opening exercises were held In
io college chapel yenterday morning
and the principal features of the morn
ing were an address made by Pres
ident Guerry and one made by Mrs.
John II. Cpbb. The music for the open
ing was furnished from the new pipe
organ which hns recently been In
stalled In the chapel. President
Quarry's address was short nnd con
sisted principally In a pleasant greet
ing, which he offered the students. Mrs.
Cobb's address had been previously
announced and was heard by a large
\1 \L |\ ITC DPDHDT attendance of the friends of the Insti-
n irtRLO HO I\L.I UK I tutlon who had attended from the city.
The crowd which was present. In ad
dition to tho atudent attendfcrice, tilled
the chapel. This was an evidence of
the strong Interest which Is being man
ifested In ,teh college and the progress
f Us work.
When Mrs. Cobb faced this audience
she was most pleasant In her remarks.'

A number of the young ladles who
havt applied for rooms In advance at
the college have not yet arrived and by
the end of the week one of the larg
est student bodies ever at Wesleyan
will be enlisted In the work of the In
stitution. Th* president and all ills c«»-
workcra are highly pleased at the
opening of the present year, and de-
spito the fact that there Is some slight
embarrassment on arcuunt of the very
large Attendance, atl of the faculty
have been bard at work during tho
opening to begin the year as soon in

All will l>e orderliness and dispatch of

The parf'ng reception to Mrs. Cobb
takes place at the grand parlors of the
college from 5 to 7 o'clock this even
ing. All arrangements for this recep
tion have been completed nnd the com
munication of the president for the
faculty nnd the student body regarding
the Invitations for the reception ex
plains itself. The letter Is as follows:
Letter of Mr. Guerry.
There seems to be some misunder
standing as to the nature of the recep
tion to he tendered by Wesleyan Col
lege to Mrs. Cobb, and also ns to who
are to be our guests on that occasion.
I therefore beg leave to say that the
time of the occasion will be from five
to seven on Thursday the 16th Inst.,
that is to say, tomorrow, the day upon
which this paper Is Issued.
Those Invited are the alumnae of the
college and their husbands; those hav
ing no husbands nre Invited to have
their fathers, or brothers where there
are no fnthern to escort them and be
present with them also; Christian min
isters of the city nnd thler wives, to
gether with such other Christian min
isters ns may be In the city nt the
time; Tustees of the collego and their
wives; officials nnd professors nnd
tpachers of the college nnd their
wives; and all of the present student
body of the college. Including day pu
pils. are of course Invited to be pres
ent, as the reception is tendered by
them.
We would be very glad Indeed to In
vite all of the friends o£ the college
generally and of Mrs. Cobb especially,
but we cannot entertain In our grand
parlors more than about five hundred,
- comfortably. Yours sincerely.

NEW YORK, SepL 14.—Former
Senator David B. Hill spent a busy
day at the Hoffman House In confer
ence pertaining to the New oYrk Dem
ocratic convention.
Efforts are being made by the na
tional committee to revive the Demo
cratic clubs throughout the country
affiliated with the national associa
tion of Democratic clubs. It la de
clared that this work Is progressing
with great rapidity.
The services of ex-Governor Hogg
of Texas were tendered to chairman
Tnggart today for the campaign.
Mr. Hogg desires to take the stump
for the Democratic ticket, although at
the recent state convention In Texas
he highly complimented' President
Roosevelt. However, he says, the good
of the whole country demands the
election of Judge Parker, and he will
work earnestly to that end.

THE CRUISER LENA
MAY BE DISMANTLED
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.—In Africa,
the land of the origin of the negro, the
race question has broken out and
strange to say it is the American negro
who has made the issue.
The alleged discrimination of the
government of the Transvaal against
the American negroes has been for
mally brought to the attention of the
'state department through a petition
transmitted from Pretoria by Mr. Prof-
tit, the Amettcnn conkul there, which
petition is signed by about a dozen of
the resident American negroes. They
appeal to the consul because their lib
erties, once enjoyed under the late gov
ernment, are abrogated and they are
left without protection.
They allege thAt they are debarred
from riding In second-class railroad
coaches because of their color, that
they are prohibited from walking on
the sldewnlk "from which we are
thrown about like chuttels." that they
are not allowed to do business because
they are Americans, and lastly they
nre told that "the American natives
must expect the same treatment ns the
Africans. This and more makes our
treatment unbearable."
The consul says that the petition is
true in all respects save the allegation
as to the rights of the sidewalks being
refused the petitioners and the main
tenance of this prohibition lies rather
in custom than In law, which was
some time ago abrogated. As to the
railway transportation the law does not
differ essentially from those in many
our southern states.
As to business, the consul says tho
colored men arc refused license not
nccount of their being Americans but
on account of color.
"I suffered three years with catarrh
of the digestive organs and bowels. I
was unable to find relief until as a last
resort I waa induced to try Peruna. I
began the use of Peruna when I was
confined to the bed, and can say that I
experienced a benefit from the first
dose. I have taken five bottles in all,
and I believe I am cured of my trouble,
and am enjoying as good health as an
old lady of my age can expect My
age Is 77. I recommend your medicine
to sufferers whenever I meet them, and
others of my friends are using it with
great success. I will always feel grate
ful to you for your grand medicine and
kind advice, and trust that many
others may be as greatly benefited as
have been. All letters of Inquiry
cheerfully answered."
In regard to the above Mrs. Mar
shall's son adds:
"I must say with all candor that my
mother's Improvement is remarkable.
She Is not like the same person. She
began taking your Peruna and follow
ing your dietary regulations, nnd has
steadily Improved during the four
weeks' use of Peruna. I think that is
wonderful considering her case Is of
three years' standing."
Catarrh of bowels produces slight
ulcers, nnd these ulcers eat their way
through and cut off the small veins or
arteries. This causes hemorhages. It
Is useless to try to stop this hemorhage
without curing the catarrh.
