THE LAW SCHOOLS
Interesting Exercises at the Begin
ning of the Sessions.
AT COLUMBIAN AND GEORGETOWN
Tributes to the Memory of the
Late President Welling..
MANY ADDRESSES MADE
There was a large audience In the hall of
the law school of the Columbian University
yesterday afternoon for the opening exer
cises of the year, and a number of interest
ing addresses were made by members of the
faculty of the school. Informal announce
ments were also made of the plans of work
to be followed In the different courses this
term, and judging by the general aplrit of
those who were present. It Is safe to say
the present year will be the most prosper
ous and successful In the history of this
great Institution. The students who were
already enrolled as well as those who ma
triculate this fall were Informed that the
first regular lecture would begin on Satur
day evening. The registration so far shows
?he names of :2E? students In the Junior,
senior and postgraduate classes, a large
number as compared with last year, but by
no means as large as It will be later, when
ull the late comers are In. It was stated
that the junior class already numbered a
Ijilf hundred more than it did last year.
Prominent Persona Present.
On the platform were seated a number of
prominent lawyers and others connected
with the university, amon?^ them Dr. S. H.
Greene, pastor of Calvary baptist Church
and the acting president of the university.
Ju&tlce Urewer of the United States Su
preme Court, who Is one of the lecturers of
the law faculty; Justice Cox and Justice
liradley of the District Supreme Court. Mr. !
Harry E. Davis. Mr. William A. Maury,
Mr. \V. G. Johnson, Mr. William F. Mat
tingly and Mr. Kobert II. Martin, the treas
urer of the university.
In almost all of the speeches that were
made during ? the course of the evening
feeling references were made to the death
of Or. James C. Welling, the former presi
dent of the university, which occurred some
weeks ago. Eloquent tributes were made to
the memory of the man who for years oc
cupied the position as head of this great In
stitution of learning, and such a prominent
position In the social life of Washington.
His character as shown in his public and
private life, and his remarkable attainments
as a scholar, were eulogized In earnest
terms, and more than one of the speakers
attributed a great share of the school's suc
cess to Dr. Welltng's untiring efforts and
his Influence In a wide circle of business
friends.
Justice Coi'k Address.
Justice Cox, who presided over the exer
cises of the evening, delivered the first
formal address, taking for his subject his
own branch In the work of the school, com
mon law. Justice Cox Is dean of the law
faculty, and in opening his remarks he
spoke feelingly of the great loss the law
school had sustained In the death of the
late president of the university, and he was
one of those who spoke In words of highest
praise of Dr. Welllng's memory. He also
referred to a book which Dr. Welling was
about' to ccn.plete, which contained the
material of a life-time's collection. Justice
Cox reviewed briefly the plan of work to be
followed In the school, and paying particu
lar attention to the details of his own
branch. In conclusion he read a letter from
Justice Harlan of the Supreme Court, who
regretted his inability to be present, be
cause of judicial duties which detained him
In Chicago, lie staled, however, that Jus
tice. Harlan would continue his course of
lectures this winter on the subject of the
Constltt^tlon, and also on torts and commer
cial papers. This announcement occasioned
gtneral applause, for Justice Harlan's
courses are among the most popular in the
school.
Justice Brewer's Remarks.
The rext speaker of the evening was
Justice Ilrewer, whose remarks are always
sure of an attentive audience, for he Is one
of the brightest and wittiest talkers that
ever addressed a class o* law students. He
spoke last evening on the subject of "The
Law of Corporations," a subject that might
be made rather dry and uninteresting, but
this time it wasn't, for he wandered around
and spoke of a good many things that do
not properly come under that caption, but
that amused and entertained his listeners
extremely. He said that everybody was op
posed to a corporation, and so were poli
ticians. In this connection he took occasion
to classify the various gentlemen about
| Mm on the platform, putting Air. Mattingly
under the head of a prohibitionist, Mr.
Harry Davis as a rabid republican, Mr
Maury as a populist, and Judge Cox a* a
champion of woman's suffrage. From little
by-plays like this he wandered Into the
more serious side of his talk, and spoke at
feome length on the subject of the law of
corporations, advising the young students
to pay special attention to this particular
specialty, telling them that corporations
v ere the clients who usually paid the best
fees, although the Juries are almost Invari
ably against them.
r" Mr' MattlnK'y spoke
briefly with reference to their particular
subjects for the year, and were followed by
Mr. Harry Davis. 3
Mr. I>avis' Tribute to Dr. Welling.
The fact that it" took several minutes for
the applause which greeted Mr. Davis' ap
pearance to die down sufficiently for htm to
speak would seem to show that Mr. Davis
Is not the least popular member of the
Columbian faculty. His tribute to the
memory of Dr. Welling was one of the most
eloquent and beautiful of the evening, for
he knew the late president well, both in
connection with their work at the uni
versity and In their respective homes. He
then went on to tell the young men how he
expected to teach them the history of law,
beginning at the time when man existed In
his natural state, on through the Koman
law, whence he Intended to show how the
old English law had been brought across
the water to make Its home on this side
of the Atlantic.
Mr. Johnson, the quizmaster for the com
ing year, addressed the students with refer
ence to his plans and methods. The last
formal address of the evening was delivered
by Dr. Greene, who spoke of the early his
tory of the law school, which he now
claimed wa.s the leading institution of its
kind In Washington. He said that so long
as the nation saw fit to make Washington
the capital city, with the Supreme Court
anj it.s able Justices, as weil as the Supreme
( ourt of the District, whose justices were
hardly less distinguished for ability the
school would have an eminent faculty that
could not be equaled.
Cheers by the Student*.
The exercises of the evening were brought
to a close with a few brief remarks by
Treasurer Martin, after which the students
left the hall with cheers for the professors
and for yie university, and with three times
three for the success of the Mask and Wig
Club, which is at present arousing a good
deal of interest among the students of the
university.
. *'ra"c,s 11 Fava. Jr., held the first
lecture In his clas9 of mathematics and
civil engineering last evening, where the
number taking the course was double that
in any previous year. It was announced In
the class room that examinations for the
prize' offered for the first
time this year, would ba held the 10th In
stant The subjects will be mathematics
and drawing. The prize Is a magnificent
fair of compasses in a leather case.
OLD CKORGETOWS SCHOOL.
Interesting Exerelnes on lis 25th An
nual Inauguration.
The twenty-fifth annual session of the
law school of the Georgetown Unlverrlty
was Inaugurate last evening at the law
school building, on F! between 6th and Cth
streets. President J. H.ivens Richards. S.
J.; Justices Morris and Shepard of the Dis
trict Court of Appeals, and Messrs. R. Ross
Terry, J. J. I>arlingtoo, Geo. A. Hamilton,
T. A. Lambert and M. J. Colbert of the
faculty occupied Mat* on the platform,
while nearly three hundred atudenta and
friends of the university were seated In
the line lecture hall of the school.
The students were In a most enthusiastic
mood, and the entrance of the faculty was
greeted v/lth the university and class yells,
together with several minutes of plain every
day cheers. It was several minutes before
Mr. Hamilton could proceed with the
formal announcement of the number of
the prize* to be given at the close of the
year. That done, he announced that Judge
Morris had resigned as dean of the faculty,
and that Judge J ere M. Wilson had been
elected to succeed him.
Jndmt Morrt?? Resignation.
Judge Morris followed Mr. Hamilton, say
ing that while he had felt It his duty to re
sign ax dean of the faculty, he would not
altogether desert the school, but would do
all he could to make It one of the great
est in the land. As dean he had been suc
ceeded by one who was the oldest member
or the faculty, and one who would bring
the wisdom of his years. Judge Wilson, he
had pleasure In saying, would deliver his
inaugural address at 8 o'clock next Mon
day evening, when the studies of the even
ing would be omitted In honor of the oc
casion. Judge Morris explained, pleasantly,
that the position of dean had been one of
more dignity than labor, and then intro
duced Judge Shepard, who had consented
to become one of the faculty.
?Indite Shepnrd'a Salutatory.
Judge Shepard was received with long
continued cheering, and began ty remark
ing that teaching law woMld be a novelty
to him. He returned his {hanks for the
cordial greeting given him, and said that
while flattered, he felt considerable trepi
dation because of the duties he was about
to assume- The fact that one Is called to
a Judicial position does not Imply that he
nas the faculty of teaching law. but he
woula do all that he could by hard work to
succeed, and if at the end of the year. It
turned out that he had been of assistance
to any number of students he would feel
that he had been more than successful.
He Imprersed upon the students the neces
sity of hard, unceasing work, telling them
by only such means could they attain suc
cess In the study and practice of law. The
law students of today, he said, f-njoye.l
much greater facilities than did those of
years ago. The terms for studying were
much longer, and the text books far su
perior to those of past years. But study as
long as thr-y might, they would find that
the study of law was a never ending one.
Nearly Throe Hundred Students.
Pror. .Darlington, when he stepp<-d for
ward to make his announcements, was
greeted with cheers which almost shook
ihe building, and he remarked that there
was quite a little more enthusiasm as to
quantity than thirteen years ago, when he
! first appeared before the students. Then
| but thirty-six faced him. while tonight
nearly 300 were about him. Prof. Perry
was greeted with like enthusiasm, and he
made a pleasant little prtfj.ee to his an
nouncements. remarking that the enthu
siasm and numbers of the students were
matters of more than private nature. They
were matters for public congratulation, for
those who had observed the events of the
year realized that law in this country was
stronger tod'iy than one year ago because
or the lawlessness which had been put
down during the year. We are, said Mr.
Perry, the slaves of law that we may be
fresmen. The study of law teaches that
if.re. can be but one liberty, the liberty
which comes from the observance of law.
Prof. Lambert spoke In a similar strain,
sajing when the laws of the country were
neglected the liberties of its people would
be lost.
President Richards- Addrcaa.
After Prof. Colbert had made. his an
noui cements President Richards was called
for. He welcomed the students In a pleas
ant tiu nner, and said that while all regret
ted the retirement of Judge Morris as dean
of the faculty, his successor wculd be most
heartily welcomed. He congratulated the
students upon the advantages placed be
fore them by the dnlvfrslty. remarking that
the faculty felt that they placed advantages
before them second to none other. All de
k uS?n the "tudents themselves,
and he believed that they would not violate
the trust imposed In them, but would go
ahead to make the law school of the
?Trn.nlve"lty the greatest In the
world a meant the greatest in the

In a recent article published In the Boston Globe,
Dr. Wm. II. Holmes. Massachusetts General Hot
Sltal, writes: I use Dr. Edison's Obesity Pills one
ay and th$ Obesity Salt the next, and obtain ex
cellent results. I a in losing a pound a day, almost
twice as much as I did using the pills alone. The
Fruit Salts are just what my system requires to
reduce fat. I analyzed the salts, and found them
to be the best material and like the formula on
the bottle. Your lemedies are all right. 1 hear of
several physicians prescribing the Fruit Bait aa a
flesh reducer and a delightful hot weather beverage
for old and young. It preventa fevers and cures
summer complaints.
Snrgeon John II. Lincoln, Cnnard Line, writes:
"I can prescribe your Dr. Edison's Obesity Pills
and Salt to all my frlenda who are too heavy, as
I have reduced my weight G8 pouuds In 2S weeks.
The Fruit Salt Is the best summer drink I ever
used. Everybody uses your Fruit fait."
MISS GOLET. NEWPORT, R. L, WRITES:
My physician. Dr. Baretow,5tb avenue, prescribed
your Obesity 1111s and Obesity Fruit Salt for eor
Sulcncy. I have lost ulucteen pounds In twenty-four
ays on one bottle of pills and half a l?ottle of
Fruit Salt. I do not suffer any more from the heat
while using the salt. It is sweet and dellcloua,
and lowers the temperature of the l>ody. I see
everybody using the Fruit Salt as a drink. I wtub
