influential. He is not a very wealthy
man, but he devotes q considerable part
Of his income to charitable work, and
his wide acquaintance and eloquence
make him a powerful advocate Of any
scheme for lettering the condition of
his fellow men. Four or FIVE years ago
he spent q winter in Thomasville and
while there learned that there was no
free school in the vicinity where colored
boys could learn q trade or where girls
could be taught sewing, cooking or
other domestic arts.
Believing that the best solution Of
the negro problem is education, he made
it his business to seek funds from the
rich winter residents for q proposed
school and was 30 successful that the
institution was soon established. The
school is now q fl%ourishing institution
and has $50 pupils, who are taught
trades and useful occupations and are
given the rudiments of q regular com.
mon school education. The school is
supported entirely by voluntary contri-
buttons which Mr.. Wyman secures dur
ing the year while travelling about the
country, and when the funds run low
he thrusts his hand into his own philan-
thropio pocket.
The school is in charge of Charles
Rice, a colored graduate of the Atlanta
university, and he has one assistant
who teaches the boys trades, another
who instructs the girls in needlework
and cooking. q third who looks after
the musical education Of the pupils and
. fourth who run q sort of kindergar-
ten for the pickaninnies.
1t is said that arithmetic is the most
difficult study for negro children whose
parents are illiterate. Grammar is an.
other poser, but geography, history,
reading and spelling. which are more
interesting to the immature mind, are
more easily acquired. Mr.. Wyman is
about 70 years Of age, is a veteran Of
the late war and was Rhode Islands
Worlds fair commissioner.

Bile upon euch official bonds, We find
that in nun Der of cases the bonds do
not comply with this provision OF the
city charter, and while We believe that
the sureties are responsible for the
amount for which they bind themselves,
yet this provision of the charter ahoud
be strictly complied with.
We therefore recommend that the city
clerk elect be instructed to file al addi-
tioual bond, with suret!es in the sum OF
$500.
The city auditor elect be instructed 60
file an additional bond with securities
in the sum of $40 900.
The city tax and license collector elect
instructed to file an additional bond,
with suretes in the auu OF sl05 900.
The city treasurer elect instructed to
file an additional bond, with suretiss in
the SUM of $11. 500.
The street superintendent elect be in
structed to file an additional bond in
the aum OF $4,000.
And the city engineer elect On addi-
tional bond in the sum OF $1,000.
In tho matter of the bonds filed by
the boiler ins pector and by the members
of the board OF engineer5, recommend
that the boiler inspector be instructed
to file an additional bond in tho sum Of
$500; and that Charles P. Bockius,
member of the board of engineers. be
instructed to file an additional bond in
the sum OF $500.
According to the Recommendation OF

the Single Tax club was referred to the

lug bonds of the city.
The petition of B. Duncan for rebate
OF taxes, was referred to the city as-
SCISSOR.
When the finance committee reported
on the demands of the street superin-

demands were presented by the commit

Some City Officials who Must Hustle
More Bondsmsn.
Tho report OF the finance committee
contained little joker for somo of the
recen tly elected city officials. The re-
port wss adopted, as follows:
We have carefully examined the re-
port Of the city tax and license collector
ON the collection of the frat half OF deln-
quent taxes for the year 1S94~5. We
regard this report, although not strictly
in compliance with section 81 of ordin-
ance No. $50, as substantially all that 10
required by said ordinance. The other
method would entail larger amount OF
clerical labor for the tax collector, and
the result would not be of greater advan-
tage to the city than that arrived at by
the report presented by this committee,
which contains full and complete list
OF all collections upon the fret half of
said delinquenciss, amounting to $l7,-
279.22.
Under advice from the city attorney,
the tax collector lossa fractional cent
in each case where it occurs; this will
amount to SIC So, and must not be
charged upon the tax COLLECTORS books
aa delinquency; nor should the audi
tor charge the tax collector with said
amount upon his books.
We further recommend that the eeid
report of the city tsx and license col
lector be filed. and that the CITY auditor
charge said city tax and licsnae collector
upon said auditors books with sl7l1 80,
being 10 per cent upon eaid $l7,279. .23,

Second-Rscommen that the report
OF the water oversosr on the sales of
water for the month OF November be
filed.
Recommend that the reports of the
city auditor on the condition of the
funds for the weeks ending November
30th. and December 18th, be fled.
In the matter OF the official bonds
flied by the officers elect. we have care-
fully examined the same and check ed
them with the assessment rolls OF the
