THE COMMISSIONERS MEETING.
The Session This Afternoon Promises
to Be of Unusual Interest.

The June meeting of the county com
missioners, to be held this afternoon at 4
O'Clock, promises to be of more than usual
interest, considering all that can be gath
cred from what the members of the board
have been doing during the past few
days.
II will be remembered that on the oc-
caSion of the arraignment of the county
engineer by Chairman Dale few weeks
ago, charges Of gross Acknowledgement and
extravaganza were made in regard to the
work of draining and clearing up the
county under the superintendent of the
engineer. Not only that, but it was
charged that the work had been badly
done.
The majority of the commissioners are
not satisfied to let such open charges
stand against the man whom they have
employed to do the county work, and
whom they believe competent in almost
every way to carry it on. Nearly all of
them have made application to the clerk
of the county commissioners for figures in
regard to different portions of the work.
and they have supplied themselves with
full data upon which to base their deduc-
| tions and conclusions in regard to it.
1t has been openly limited by one of the
commissioners that some sort of an in
quiry or investigation will be made to de-
termine whether or not the charges had
any foundation in fact. Just how it will
| be done will not be determined until
| the meeting this afternoon, but 1t
has been said that any commissioner max
ing the charge Of extravaganza or faulty
work in the county engineering will be
asked to show why he makes such charges.
! and bring proof to the fact that they are
| so, or the charges themselves will not be
| allowed to stand.
Since the last meeting of the commits
sioners at which such charges were pre-
! ferred all of them have taken look over
| the county work aud have given it thor
ough inspection With the figures before
| them they are therefore prepared to dis
cuss in detail what has and what has not
| been done and how much the work has
| cost the county.
Another important matter which will
| come up at the meeting of the board will
| be the request, urged by Messrs. T. G.
! Clay and Ralph Elliott of Bryan county,
! for the annulment of the liquor license
| granted some time ago to B. Carpenter,
! who keeps bar out on Sterling Bluff on
the Ogeechee river. They claim that
| the commissioners granted this license
| Illegally las there is a church within three
miles and even less of the place where
the liquor selling is going on II will be
remembered that this was the first liquor
license granted in this section of the state
since the 3-rnile law went into effect. If
it is shown that there is church or
school house within three miles of the
place the license will, of course, be void
There are several other matters to come
up which may prove of interest and
among them the opening of bids for
county supplies. At all events the meet
ing promises to be one of the most inter-
esting since the new board was ineu-
! gurated.

important questions 10 come up before

This department, il will readily be seen.
is one of the most important in the insti-
tuition, the subject being one which is
required TO be taken by all regular stu
dents. Consequently the trustees will
exercise much care in their choice
of a professor to fill the chair.
There is number of applicants
for it, among whom are Mr.. Sylvanus
Morris, a son of Prof. Morris, who has
for some years been a successful practi
toner at the bar in Athens. Others are
Prof. Arson of the University of Yer
mont, Prof. Currell of Davidson College,
and Prof. Pinckham of Alabama Maj.
Meldrim SAYS there will doubtless be
other applicants for the vacant chair.

bate, which is always one of the most in
teresting and exciting contests of the
year Mai Meldrim, Hon. N. J. Ham
mOnd and State School Commissioner S.
D. Bradwell have been chosen as judges
for the occasion. There is no alumnus of
the university who will not appreciate
this yearly and often exciting conflict be-
tween the Phi Kappa and Demosthenian
Literary Societies
The baccalaureate sermon will be
preached by the chancellor, Rev. William
E. Boggs, ID. D., on Sunday morning, and
on Monday morning Mr.. A. G. WilcOXon
of Brunswick, of the class of 'sS, will ad-
dress the literary societies. The alumni
address, which is one of the most inter
esting Of the commencement, will be
delivered by Gen. Henry r. jack
son. The alumni exercises are always
interesting, ii being the occasion of the
election as members those Of the senior
class who are just upon the eve of their
graduation.

THE MYSTERY SOLVED.
Charles Dean Was Assaulted by
James Owens on Jones Street.

Charles Dean Was Assaulted by
James Owens on Jones Street.
The police yesterday morning unrav-
eled the seeming mystery surrounding
the almost fatal assault upon Charles
Dean night before last, which was sup
posed to have occurred on Liberty street
Dean received his wound at Jones and
Bull streets in front of the Harmonic
Club, of which he is porter James
Owens, an assistant, inflicted it with a
rock.
Dean and Owens quarreled in the hall
of the club house about a debt of $40
which Dean owed Owens. The quarrel
led up to the use of obscene language by
Owens and Dean knocked him down with
chair and elected him. Owens found a
rock on the grass plat and as Dean fol-
lowed him into the street, turned and
struck him terrific blow on the fore
head. Dean was rendered unconscious
for a few minutes and when he revived
he started in search of a physician and
was trying to make his way to Dr. Davis
Office when he tainted from loss of blood
under the tree where he was found.
Several members of the Harmonic Club
witnessed the affair, but they did not
think it was serious until they read the
account in Yesterdays MORNING News,
when they notified the police of the row
between Dean and Owens Up to that
time the officers were working in the dark
on the theory that some unknown person
had waylaid Dean on Liberty street and
struck him from behind the tree.
The failure to get an early clew gave
Owens an opportunity to make good his
escape. Although he was looked for every
where in the city yesterday by several Of
ficers no trace of him could be secured,
and it is probable Owens is now far away
from the scene of his crime.
Dean recovered consciousness yester-
day and is resting easy, although he is
not yet out of danger by any means.
