AGNES SCOTT INSTITUTE.
One of the South's Most Popular
Scholastic Work It Is Doing.

The next session of this noted boarding
and day school for young ladies, COM
mences on Sept. 5, next.
Already applications for catalogues are
being received. and the promise is of an
other prosperous year.
The past year has been one of wide
spread financial depression, but notwith
standing this fact, the institute has had a
prosperous year.
No school in the south has enjoyed more
constant and brilliant success than the
Agnes Scott, and the causes of this sue
cess are evident.
l. Its location in North Georgia is un-
rivaled the local surroundings are ideal,
Decatur having long been noted for its re-
fined, educated and religious society.
2 A large and accomplished corps of
trained and experienced teachers, each
member Of the faculty having been Sc
lected for his or her character and special
qualifications for the chair occupied.
g. Thorough work. The utmost effort
is made TO do thorough teaching, and no
careless or Anticipated methods are used.
None of the officers or teachers have any
financial interest in the management of
the institute, and each teacher is able to
give her or his entire time and undivided
and disinterested atten tion to the work of
instrdcting. Pupils not making satisfac-
tory progress, or not improving their
time, are not allowed to waste the money
of parents by further attendance.
The curriculum is already high. 1t is
rigidly pursued, and is being steadily ad-
vanced as the school grows in years. 1t
is the desire and aim of trustees and fac
ulty to place the Agnes Scott as the
leader in elevating the standard of te-
male education in the south.
The special departments, as music and
art, are well equipped and under charge
of skilled specialists, are fully abreast of
the times and the best schools.
4. The low scale of fees, these having
been fixed, not with the view of money
making, but simply to cover current ex-
penses, repairs and equipment.
5. The superb buildings were con-
structed especially for school purposes,
after the best approved plans They are
all of brick, heated by steam, lighted by
electricity, scientifically ventilated, and
supplied throughout with hot and cold
water and fire hose.
Applications for catalogues, general in
formation, etc, should be addressed to
H. j. Williams, Secretary and Treasurer,

SHIP CAPTAINS DoCKErED
For Allowing Their Crews to SIeel
on Board the Vessels.

For Allowing Their Crews to Sleep
on Board the Vessels.
The captains of three foreign vessels
were placed on the docket yesterday for
allowing their crews to sleep aboard the
vessels contrary to the city ordinance
which requires that the crews of
all vessels in port during the
summer months shall not sleep aboard
the vessels at night.
The law is intended both as sanitary
regulation and for the protection of sail
ors. Sleeping on the river has been re
garded as dangerous to health during the
summer months, and the intention of the
law is to prevent the spread of diseases
among the sailors, both for their own
sakes and for the sake of the people of
the city with whom they come in con-
tact.
The ordinance was recently amended
by council at the request of the Port
Society so as to include June, as well as
July, August and September, among the
prohibited months.
The ordinance is regarded as a hard
ship by the masters of many vessels who
visit the port in summer, as they are put
to the extra expense of furnishing their
crews with sleeping quarters on shore,
and is frequently eVaded. The ship
masters have frequently complained of
the law and declared that it was one of
their reasons for preferring other neigh
boring ports, where the regulations are
not so stringent, to Savannah

Wiley Browns Petition to Share in

the Estate Left by His Wife.
The petition Of Wiley Brown to be al
lowed to share in the es tate left by his
wife, Sarah Jane Brown, which is said to
amount to about s., 900, was heard yester-
day before Judge Hampton L. Ferril
The petitioner states that his wife's es-
tate is now ready for division; that he
has appealed to the administrator, Jordan
f. Brooks, TO be allowed to share in the
distribution, and this has been denied
him. He asked the court to order the ad-
ministratOr to show cause why his petit
ton should not be granted.
On the other hand an answer was filed
through Messrs. SeabrOok Il Morgan by
X. f. Downing. party in interest, OBJ
jecting 10 Browns sharing in the estate
on the ground that his wife was not of
sound mind at the time he married her,
and was therefore incapable of contract
ing marriage. The answer alleges that
Brown knew this at the time of the mar
riage, and is therefore not entitled to par
ticipate in the division. A large number
Of witnesses was introduced on each side,
and Judge E'errill took the matter under
consideration. He will render his decis.
ion to-day at ~ O'Clock.

Lieut. c. B. Satterly was expected to
be in Savannah Tomorrow night for the
purpose of making an inspection of the
armory of the Savannah Volunteer
Guards and perhaps, of other compa-

duties at the capital are so pressing that
he will be unable to make the trip. The
boys have been getting their lockers and
guns in shape for the last two or three
days in anticipation of this inspection.
