Setzler since his entrance at the Uiiiversity of Virginia last fall, and we quote as follows from the Charlottes ville Progress of May 4th. "The Virginia State Inter-Collegiate <)ratorical Contest lield at the public hall of the liversity of Virginia last even itig resulted iii a victory for Mr. V. B. Setzler, the 'niversity of Virginia repre sentative. The coitest was one of the very best of the many that have been held since the orgaiization of the association. The ora tions of the other college representatives were excellent ;in preparation and deliv ery and se: .ed by their excellence to be stow greater honor on the winning orator. Probably the best orations besides Mr. Setzler's were those of Messrs. 11. M. Roberts of Ifampden-Sidney College and L,ee G. Crutchfield of Randolph-Macon College. Poth of these orations were good inl uotitents and delivered excel lently. "The hall was well filled when the ex ercises began. The audience was repre sentative and appreciative, as shown by the frequent applause which greeted the eloquent addresses. When the decision of the judges was announced by Capt. Mlicajah Woods of Charlottesvil'e, the studeits on opposite sides of the audi toriumn gave the college yells until the building resounded. "Mr. Setzler has added another to the long list of honors attained by himj since lie entered the University last fall. He is the witner of the Washington Society orators' and debaters' medals, of the joint oratorical contest of the Washington and Jefferson societies and of the State Inter Collegiate Contest. His essay on the "llall of Faine" in the January issue of the V'niversity of Virginia Magazine showed great strength and will probably be one of the winners in the contests for the Magazine medals. "The following are the speakers and their subjects: I. Mr. 13. It. Shiveley--Washington and Lee University-Subject: "The Real American." 2. Mr. R. A. Stewart-Emory and I lenry College-Subject: "The liman With Ate hoe." 3. 11. M. Roberts--Hampden-Sidney College-Subject: "'Shall Our Laurels Wither?" .1. Mr. L. W.
