CLOSING EXERCISES YESTERDAY. Georgetown Law College Miss Osborne's Tonne Ladies' School Immaculate Conception School for Glrls-Bojs' High School Other Schools. The annnal commencement of the law department of the University of Georgetown brought together at Ford's Opera-Housc last evening a large and brilliant assemblage. The stage presented a beautiful picture. On each side were massed flowering and foliage plants, while running the entire front of the stage were heaps or floral gifts to the graduates of bewildering beauty and fertility of design.

Among these was an owl made entirely of white flowers, andprcicntingavery life-like appearance. Suspended from the centre by a massive garland of evergreens, which hung dowrTin graceful festoons, was a large shield made of immortelles, with the device: "Law, '81. U. of worked upon it in colors. Upon one side sat the graduates, and upon tlte other were the members of the faculty and invited guests, as follows: Justice Harlan, Commissioner Morgan, Dr.

Toner, Admiral Allman, lion. Samuel Shellabargcr, Rev. P. Heal president of the university; Charles W.Hoffman, dean of the faculty; Hon. Richard T.

Merrick. Hon. William A. Richardson, Martin F. Morris, James Lowndes, William II.

Dennis. The music was furnished by the Marine Band, under the leadership of Mr. J. P. Sousa.

After a number of selections had been rendered by the orchestra, Mr. Merrick came forward and in very complimentary terms introduced Mr. Shellabargcr, who delivered the address to the graduating class. The address was well worthy of its distinguished author, and his words, as he eloquently and graphically depicted the high ideal of professional integrity and fidelity which a lawyer should have in view, had no uncertain sound. He was repeatedly interrupted by the appreciative applause of the audience.

The valedictory was delivered by Mr. J. H. Holt, of West Virgina, who chose for his subject "The Amcricau Jurist." The oration gave evidence of a matureness of thought which the rather youthful appearance of the speaker would not indicate and was well received. President Hcaly then conferred the degrees as follows: Degree of master of laws William Samuel Jack son, District of Columbia; Charles Rider Newman, District of Columbia; Jeremiah D.

O'Connell, New York; James D' Alton Tower, New York; Louis Pierce Shoemaker, District of Columbia. Degree of bachelor of laws James Edward Clements, Virginia: John T. Coughlin, Maryland; Joseph Patrick Fallon, District of Columbia: William Henry Harrison, Virginia; John Herrimon Holt, West Virginia; Joseph Iguatius Joyce and Dennis Kerr, District of Columbia Francis Patrick McMullcn, Indiana; George McXeir, District of Columbia; Edward Oldham Russell, A. West Virginia; Anson Steele Taylor. District of Columbia.

President Hcaley, in conclusion, made a few congratulatory remarks to the graduates, and said that he did not intend to make a long speech. He would not, however, be so ungallant as to say with Haialct lliat he would be as brief as a woman's love," out "as brief as woman's hesitancy when she loves."

According to this the total ofthe seventh round ofthe Washington Light Infantry and the Rifles was a tie, and therefore had to go to the sixth round, where the footing of the Rifles exceeded that ofthe Infantry by four points. The referees of the respective teams not being thoroughly pasted in the rules of the National Association, they decided to refer the question to that association for their decision. After the regular shooting for the cup was concluded, a match was made between Cash, of the Washington Light Infantry Corps, and Johnston, ofthe Rifles, at two hundred yards, forS5, each one to be entitled to live measure shots.

After quite a spirited contest the match; was won by Johnston by eleven inches. Captains of teams Washington Light Infantry, Lieutenant B. R. Ross; National Rifles, Colonel J. O.

A Moan Paracrapb. To the. Editor of Tiik Republican The following appears iu the Star of last night There has been considerable comment regarding theselection ofthe two members ofthe grand jury IL Schutter and Andrew Langdon. The former was a fresco-painter at the Department, and was recently investigated by a commKsion appointed by the Postmaster-General. AVhile all the facti adduced by the investigation have not been made public, it is known that Mr.

Schutter's innocence of certain questionable practices was not vindicated by the inquiry. 3Ir. Langdon is the president of A. E. Boone's Co-operative Mail Transportation Company, which lias suffered considerably In consequence of General James' reforms.

Neither 3Ir. Langdon nor 3Ir. Schutter. it is believed, will be intluenced In their action as grand jurors by their relations with the former authorities in the Department. AVhat docs such a mean paragraph imply? Is Sir Benjamin Backbite employed on that paper? It is Star all over.
