Tho exercises Incident to the award? ing of diplomas to the graduating class of nurses from the Norfolk Protestant Hospital yesterday afternoon were of an Interesting character. The spacious pariors of the Institutloh were elabor? ately decorated with palms, ferns, and flowers of sweetest fragrance In com? memoration of the event. The audience was a very select one, and was com? posed of the managers and friends of the hospital. The exercises;were begun with prayer by Rev. W. J. Young. 1>. 1).. of Ep WOrth Church, followed by Miss Ewcll, with a vocal solp, entitled "Good-Uye, Sweet Hay.'" which was rendered in su? perb style by this popular vocalist. Dr. H. M. Nash, who had been an? nounced to deliver an address on the ?'Ethics of Nursery." said that he was happy to state that the nurses who were to receive diplomas had passed a most creditable examination in the an? atomy and structure of the human body and in maleria medica. "Hut," said he, "t (Ind, on looking at the program, that I am put down for a specific subject, 'The Ethics of Nursing." which is a large and comprehensive theme, one which had engaged the study of the Binges ami philosophers of all ages, and was taught in the days of our Lord, and is one taught in the holy Scriptures? the great principle of which Is to do right for the sake of human nature. To give a proper conception of the subject would require much thought and preparation. The ethics that should govern nursea are kindness, hu? mility, politeness and efficiency, ami to avoid all conversation except that pertaining to their duties. Above all things else they should avoid criticism of another, and should never be a par? tisan of any one, so that they may be useful to themselves and to the com? munity in which they live." ATter Dr. Nnsh's brief, but instruct? ive address, Miss Ewcll .-.>ng with line voice, "When the Heart is Young." Dr. L. Lankford was the next speak? er. His address was on "The Trained Nurse of Past and Future." He said: "1 am not present to bring a bouquet of Mowers or of rhetoric, but to rear a monument deep in base ami tall in shaft, with lour sides on it, with an inscription of honor to the noble self sacrificlng nurses of the past, present and future. The nurses of is years ago were not the nurses of to-'.lay. and those of to-day will not be the nurses of the years to come. 1 honor the nurses. Their work shows to the world what the loving sympathy of woman can do, especially when they pattern after the Man of Gallilcc, whose mis? sion was to do good, who is the unfail? ing source of the physical and spiritual woman." Dr. Herbert Old, in presenting the diplomas to the graduating class of nurses, said: "These awards; of merit show that your work for the past two years has been placed on a firm foundation, and has opened up a broader Held for fu? ture usefulness, wherein you can make yourselves perfect in certain duties delegated to you. if not In nil." After extending his best wishes he presented the diplomas to the following graduates: Misses Hulda M. Naw, Jessie Trvine, Eddie Irvine, and Mattie Perrle Shack elford. A FI/TCASINO INCIDENT. Dr. Old then turned to Miss Jennie Irvine and said: "I have the unexpect? ed. Inn pleasant, duly of presenting you with this gold medal, in behalf of the managers of the hospital, for having attained the highest rank made in the class for general excellence of deport? ment and in your examination." The beautiful gift was modestly received by Miss Irvine. This closed the exorcises, and the benediction was pronounced by Dr. You ng. Rev. Dr. Carl E. Grammer, of Christ P. B. Church, who was to have partici? pated in tile program, could not be present on account of being called to Baltimore. Refreshments were served at ihn close of the exercises. PROGRESS OF THE STRIKE. WARRANTS ARE OUT FOR COVER TON'S ASSAILANTS. The contractors of the Sewejl's Point electric car line are forced to delay their work still further because of their inability to secure laborers. Only the men putting up the poles wen- are work yesterday, and a half dosen ethers en the grading. The contractors are satisfied they will have a big force at work at the end of the week. how. v. r. There appears to be no probability that they will reac h I an agreement with tho colored union men. who have refused to work for the j wages offered. MOX DAY'S DIST U II HA NCE. Alex. Coverton, the negro who was at? tacked by supposed strikers shortly nft cr quitting work on tho line Monday afternoon, swore out a warrant yester? day for the two ncgl'OSc whom he says attacked him. Th.- negroes have not yet been nr rested. it seems that they approach? ed Coverton and asked him to come to their hall, on Salter street, and he re? fused. A dispute arose and Coverton was attacked and knoeked rt,own. An officer near the scene went to bis assistance, and the crowd of negroes, numbering about a dozen, disappeared. Coverton charges bis assailants with assault anil battery. It Is expected thai they will be arrested to-day. as the police are looking for them. The as? sailants are said to belong to the col? ored labor union. i'nol Itriilge Irrnu Kinltlt Creek. Messrs. John L. Roper and IT. L. Page received yesterday from Captain W. 1{. Mayo, president of the Board of Harbor Commissioners, a permit to construct a foot bridge from the north? ern terminus of Yarmouth street across Smith's Creek lo Mowbrny Arch,Ghent, the plans as drawn having been entirely satisfactory to the city Engineer Mr. Page told a Virginian-Pilot re? porter yesterday afternoon that he should bcclri the construction of the bridge at once .anil complete it In le"ss than thirty days. Tho structure will be built of the best material, it will be a great convenience to the people liv? ing in that so. lion of Ghent and be the means of enhancing tho value of what is known as the Kibble property in this rapidly growing part of the city. A BEAUTIFUL OPERA Priscilla Captivates a Norfolk fAudience Caste mill Ctiorua Wore in Excellent ( Olm i coii nuii iiic Performance at 1I10 Academy Last -> Sterlted llic Unstinted rnilao AccnnlcU 11. To say that "Priscilla" was a su :c< ss is a very mild Interpretation of the opinion of. the large audience which wit? nessed the performance of this beauti? ful opera at the Academy of Music last night by local talent, under the di? rection of Mrs. J. It. Shipp, and stage management of Mr. Horace Smith. Roth cast and chorus were in exellent con? dition, and the performance through? out was such as to justify unstinted praise, in fact the hearty and persist? ent applause bestowed by the audience evidenced a due appreciation Of the ef? forts of the talented performers and reflected great credit both upon the par? ticipants and the management. The story of the opera is a beautiful one. founded upon the well known epi? sode of the proxy wooing of Priscilla Mullins by John Aldcn, for the veteran \LUes Standish, ami the unsuccessful termination of the lat ter's matrimonial campaign. The music abounds In tuneful airs and mel? odies. Each character in the cast was ren? dered in charming style by local sing? ers of unquestioned ability. \\'e would especially mention the remarkable per? formance of Mrs. J. Griff Edwards, (formerly Miss Mattie BosWCll), who. owing to the sickness of Mrs. Potter, who was billed for the title rule, sang the difticult role of Priscilla at a mo? ment's notice without a rehearsal. Mrs. Edwards hail not played the part since last November, yet her rendering, uotn In action and music, bordered on per? fection. It Is needless to say her re? ception was an ovation. Miss S. Kin? dred Williams' sweet contralto v.dee was heard to great advantage, and Miss Elisabeth Williams, Miss Alice Oliver and M s. Martha Porter merited ami received tin-it- full share of praise.
