WHEN railroads first made their
appearance in Europe the owners OF
horses predicted the same fate For
their animals that the lovers of the
bicycle predict for that animal to-
day. The steam engine revolution
lied the system of public convey
ances. and the alarmists said, the
horse must go, just as they are say
ing now And for time the noble
animal fell in market value, just as it
has fallen at present. There was a
time in Europe when poor plug
horses could be had for the asking,
but, strange as it may appear, the
iron horses, instead of driving the
horse from the road created a
demand for it, and so it may yet be
with electricity and the bicycle. The
scrub horse Will no doubt, have to
go, and so much the better, but even
now if one wants a good horse, it can
only be had at good figure, and the
knowing ones say that history will
repeat itself on this point, and that
good roadsters will before long, COM
mand nearly as good a price as OF
old

Incompetent Ones Unable 90 Pass
the Recent Examination.
Atlanta, Ga. Jan. Estate School Com
missioner Glenn is beginning to receive
returns from the recent examination Of
teachers The reports show general
wedding out of the Incompetent teachers
who have heretofore managed to retain
their licenses. The questions submitted by
State School Commissioner Glenn at the
examinations created something of a sem
sation among the old time teachers, and
as a consequence. a large number of them
have been dropped from the schools IN the
different counts. Heretofore IL has been
the rule that teachers scoring an average
lower than 60 per cent. could receive no
licenses to teach. When Prof. Glenn came
into Office, he passed an order that no
teacher should be given a license who
made an average of less than IS, and the
questions sent out for use in the eXamina-
lions were entirely different from what
had been in use. The up-to date teachers
have answered them, but they proved a
stumbling block to back numbers. Com
missioner Glenn is of course, roundly
scored by those who failed to pass, but
the school boards generally are much
gratihed at the result.

PULLNIAN,s CHARTER.
The Hearing of the Suit for Its FOr-
fixture Begun.

Chicago, Jan. 29.-The hearing of the
quo-warranto suit of the attorney general
against the Pullman Palace Car Company,
for forfeiture Of its charter, was begun
before Judge Baker this morning. The
trial of the suit upon its merits was not
reached during the morning session, the
time being taken up with the reading OF
the information and the reply of the COM
pany
The information charges the company
with violation of the laws Of the state and
usurpation of powers which the state did
not grant to it when the company's charter
was issued. and asking that the charter
be taken away from 1t.
The pleas of the company deny but few
of the allegations of the information, but
attempt to justify the conduct of the de-
PENDANT in the management of its business.
The argument on the attorney generals
demurrer to the pleas began at the after
noon session. Attorney General Moloney
spoke at great length and was followed by
John s. Runnells for the Pullman COM
pany. The arguments occupied all the af-
ternoon, and will probably be continued to-
morrow.

It was quite noon when the delegation

marched up in a body TO meet the widow
of the distinguished and lamented hero OF
the north.
Hon. W. A. Hemphill and Cen .. A. Ey-

of them and greeted each with d cordially
which bore evidences Of her entire sim

Others Joined the throng which desired
10 meet her, and the double parlors of the

ton tourists occupied seats in the pariors.
The gathering was most happy one.
and Mrs. Grant was most interesting 10
all who met her. "reminiscences were gone
over after the first rush, and every one
was charmed with the gracious lady.

WON'T TAKE THE MEDAL.
The weddington Plagiarism Case ut
Athens Ended.

Athens, Ga, Jan. 29.-The faculty this
afternoon settled the Wellington plagar-
ism case. The finding of the board Of
honor, to whom the matter had been re-
ferred, was to the effect that ten passages
in the speech Of c. A. Wellington were
similar in thought, and in some cases
identical in language as sentences in the
speech of j. j. Bennett, delivered several
years since and published in the Mercer
college paper, and that the similarity be-
tween the two speeches was such as to
preclude accidental coincidence.
Mr.. Wellington this afternoon made
known to the faculty that he would not
accept the medal If rendered him under the
present circumstances; that he was inno-
cent of the charge of plagiarism. that he
wrote his speech without aid and that he
would continue to discharge his duties as
a student regardless of this occurrence.
The letter of Mr. Wellington had a manly
ring to 1t.
The faculty then determined that as
Mr. Wellington, who had called for the
investigation, declined to receive the
medal, the question of naming the next
man for the place should be referred back
to the judges. They will probably meet
tomorrow and name the next man for the
Mace.
