THE CoLoREp COLLEGE.
The Commission Inspec.s tie Building
and Grounds

The Commission Inspec.s tie Building
and Grounds
The commission IN control Of the State
Industrial College for Colored Youth at
Savannah met yesterday at the college.
There were present the chairman, Mai.
P. W. Meldrin of Savannah, Judge W. r.
Hammond Of Atlanta, p. ]. Cline OF Mil
ledgeville. and George 7. Murrell OF Winter
vile, near Athens.
The visiting members arrived in the city
yesterday morning and registered at the
De Soto. After breakfast they drove out
to the college in company with Maj Mel
drim and Capt j. +. Brooks, treasurer Of
the college fund. Il was the first meeting
Of the commission since the organization OF
the college.
The college grounds and buildings were
inspected and the commission expressed IT.
self much pleased, especially with the beau
tlful location OF the college.
The meeting was held for the inspection
Of the college and the cons Iteration of what
is necessary to be done for its further i'm
provement. The commits sion found every
thing In satisfactory condition and the coll
leRe running smoothly. The most impor-
tant problem that came up for the considera-
ton Of the commission is the fact that the
standard Of the college is so high as to debar
great number Of applicants.
The commission declined to accept OF
President Wright's proposition to lower
the standard, but decided to submit the
question OF establishing a preparatory
department to the chancellor and faculty
of the state university, Of which the college
Is a branch.
Mai. Meldrim said that the standard ques-
ton Is very important problem in state
education and oonfronts both white and
colored students. The public schools do not
prepare their graduates for college, and as
consequence students desiring to attend
such institutions must go through a special
course of preparation. Things, be said,
have changed from the time of the old
private schools, which made practice Of
preparing their graduates in the highest
branches.
In the incomplete development of our
public school system, Maj. Meldrim said,
there is gap between the public school and
the college, which needs to be filed in. He
expects the further development Of the
public school system will solve the problem.
The commissioners were well pleased with
the state of affairs at the college. The farm
will be put in condition for cultivation next
year, and work upon the buildings for the
industrial department will commence soon
The commission does not meet regularly
and is only called toget Ter by the chairman
when he considers il nece 3sary for the in
terests of the college.

JUICE KEYS DECISION.

How the Savannah Bondholders Of
the M. AID N. g. Road Feel.
The dispatch in yesterdays MORNING
NEWS. detailing the decision of Judge d.
NJ. Key of the United States court of Ten
nessee in favor of the contractors against
the Marietta and North Georgia railroad,
was Of interest to good many people in
Savannah.
The banks of the city are still holding a
considerable amount of the bonds of the
road for loans made upon them be-
fol @ the collapse of the enterprise. There
are said to be over $500, COD worth
of these bonds held in Savannah. The
action of Judge Key is regarded as unfavor-
able to the receivers plans to issue certifi-
Gates to the boudholders and as favoring
the sale of the road.
Attorneys representing the Savannah
holders OF bonds were seen yesterday by a
MORNING NEWS reporter. They said that
the action indicated by Judge Key was in
opposition to the limo upon which they we're
proceeding as the Savannah bond
holders favored tn issuance of certificates.
The attorneys said they had no idea that
the road would be sold any time soon not
within six months at least. They did not
believe that any judge would order the sale
OF the road in the present state Of the money
market.
One of the leading attorneys stated that
the litigation would probably continue in
definitely, but that he believed the stock
holders would finally get something for
their bonds

THE BULL STREET PAVEMENT.

Tuesday Night Council VIII Consider
Its Extension to the Park.
Alderman Bailey will bring up the ques-
ton of the continuation of the Bull street
asphalt pavement to the park at the meet
ing Of the committee of the whole for the
consideration of the budget next Tuesday
night.
Alderman Bailey wants to have the pave
ment guaranteed by next years budget,
and then bids for the work eau be called for
at once and 1t can he done after the pave
ment now being laid is completed. The al
derman is not sure that he will have the en-
tire support of council for the continual
ton of the pavement, in view
of the large amount which must necessarily
be appropriated in next years. budget for
the new water works, but nevertheless he
is Of the opinion that the pavement will be
provided for.
Alderman Bailey is satisfied that 1t is the
wish and desire OF the majority of the
citizens to have Bull street paved TO the
park. and as the council is body subServi-
ent to the will of the people, he believes Ii
should recognize their claims.

A LIVELY MEETING.

The County Commissioners Have Tits
About Bridges and Railroads.
The adjourned meeting OF the county
commissioners yesterday wasn't as largely
attended as the regular one Of Wednesday,
but it was equally interesting, being pro-
ductive of several little Tits and some plain
talk among the commissioners.
The full board, Chairman Walker and
Commissioners Read, Meinhard, Estill and
Smart was present.
The first business considered was the re-
port of County Engineer Thomas recon-
mending the building Of an iron bridge over
Pipemaker creek on the Augusta road. He
presented figures showing that the bridge
would cost 81 $50.
Commissioner Smart opposed the build
ing Of an iron bridge, and instead wanted
two 25-foot brick culverts constructed. He
claimed that the value Of an iron brid ze
was questionable, because considerable
money would have to be expended every
year to paint it,
Commissioner Read asked County En-
gineer Thomas what would be the cost OF
prick culverts in comparison with an iron
urloge, and whether one would interfere
with the how Of the water any more than
the other.
tne county engineer stated that the Gull
serus would cost 90 900 and were far less
desirable than the bridge because thew

The Cause of Rheum atism

An acid which exists in sour milk md
cider, called laotic acid, is believed by
physicians so be the cause Of rheumatism.
Accommodating in the blood, it attacks the
fibrous tissues IN the joints, and causes
agonizing pains. What is needed is a remedy
to neutraiize the acid, and so invigorate the
kidneys and liver that all waste win be car.

recommended by many whom it has cured
Of rheumatism. 1t possesses just the desired
qualities, and so thoroughly purifles the
blood as to prevent occurrence Of rheumatic
attacks. We suggest a trial Of Hoods Sar-
saparilla by ell who suffer from rheuma-
tism.-Ad.
