 The public schools or this city closed today with appropriate exercises, and teachers and pupils will for three months enjoy a well-earned vacation.
 In all of the departments at the Varl- ous schools programmes consisting or music declamations and calisthenics were observed, and reports were read giving the standing of the pupils in de- pertinent, attendance and scholarship. From the principals and teachers we gather that this has been. an unusually successful year, and a great deal of good has been accomplished.
 In spite of the long epidemic of mea- sles the attendance has been unusually good In Mrs. Louie Ledbetter's depart ment at the Sayre Street school there were twenty-three children with perfect attendance out of an enrolment of forty six. This is the best record of the schools, and this class has been the honor department for good attendance for the past three years. In scholarship and department all of the departm cnts have excellent records, and, indeed, Montgomery has good reason to be proud of her public schools.

MIR. McGREGOR RESIGNS.
The Well-Known Passenger Agent Sewers His Connection With the Queen and Cres-
 cent-Hs Reasons.

MT. J. R. McGregor. travelling passen- ger agent of the Queen and Crescent, with headquarters in this city. has ten dered his resignation with that system, effective tomorrow. The reasons for talk ing this step are that MT. McGregor is making steps to go into business for himself, and this business will demand his entire time.
 He has been with the Queen and Cres- cent for years, and in severing his con nection with the road General Passenger Agent Rinearson loses his best man. Since he has been stationed here he has covered his territory admirably, and his untiring efforts have made money for his road, for when he went for business he generally got 1t. He worked night and day and when there was any busi- ness in sight never seemed to tire, his only aim being to benefit his line. The Queen and Crescent has had several good passenger men in this territory, but of all these McGregor lowered above them. He has made friends in this ter ritory who, while they wish him success in the future, are sorry to learn of his severing connection with the Queen and Crescent. He will still have headquar- ters in this city, and will in a short time open up an immigration and em- ployment agency.
 As to who his successor will be there is no telling, but one thing Is certain, whoever he will be, if he fills Macs shoes, will have to go early and stay late.

the umpire in the most horrible manner, using the most profane and indecent language. Nichols stood it for a while and then ordered Clausen out of the game. Montgomery's captain protested and refused to play unless Clausen pitched. Clausen said he would not pitch if Nichols umpired, and Nichols said that under no conditions should Clausen be in the game. For the second time the umpire pulled his watch and when the time rolled around he awarded the game to Atlanta by the usual score of to 0. There were 5000 people out and an exhibition game was played, Clausen pitching. while Bailey of the Montgom- erys and Wilson of Atlanta umpired.

It required the police to quiet the clamor- ing crowd. Montgomery won the exhi- bition game, the score being:

a hitch in either performance save
a slip made by an actor at Evans

lily, however, he caught upon the
ropes. A net had been stretched
over the stage, to prevent an acci-
dent, while the actor was executing
this perilous feat.

at Wirth's and received special
courtesies from the circus people.
They were given large, easy chairs
