The trouble between the Spanish
and United States governments
caused by the firing upon the
United States mail steamer Allan
ca, is practically settled, according
to cablegram received at the
state department from Minister
Taylor stating that the Spanish
government assures the United
States that no such offense shall
again occur. Mr.. Taylor was born
September l., 1851, In Newbern,
n. c., but when quite young re-
moved to Alabama and has since
been a resident Of Mobile. He Is a
lawyer, having been admitted to
the bar when not yet - years OF
age. Very soon after his admis-
sion to the bar he began working
upon a history OF the "Origin and
Growth of the English Constitu-
tion," the first volume Of which
has been published and met with
great favor. This, together with
his argument before the United
States Supreme court in the lot
terry contest led to his appointment

OPERA HOUSE CHANGES.
Manager Cool May Step Out-Trying
to Cut Wages on the
Orchestra

It Is announced that L. b. Cool, the
present manager of the Grand opera house
will not occupy that position during the
coming season. 1t Is known that certain
negotiations are pending and rumor has 1t
that william Wise, q brother-in-law of
Manager Cool, is to succeed him.
Yesterday afternoon News reporter
called upon Manager Cool, and asked
that the rumors be either confirmed or
denied. The opera house manager said
that he expected to retain his present
position and while William Wise might be
connected with the house, 1t would be
as janitor instead of manager.
Later Manager Cool admitted there was
a possibility of change being made iE the
very near future, but did not state who
wonld succeed him as manager.
Patrons of the Grand next season will
not have the pleasure Of hearing the Grand
Army orchestra, which is considered one
of the very best in the state. The or
chestra is favorably known all over the
country for the excellent music rendered,
and 1t lisa common saying among show peo-
pie "We will have good music when we
reach Canton, as the orchestra Is first
class"
The reason that the Grand Army or
chestra will not be at the Grand next sea-
son, is because of an attempt to cut the
salaries of the musicians. The boys have
been receiving $13.75 per night, and the
opera house people ask them to play in
the future for $12, which proposition the
orchestra boys will not accept.
Manager Cool was asked in reference
to the orchestra, and admitted the Grand
Army boys would not be there next
season unless they played for $l2, which
the boys say they win never accept.

CANTON TOWNSHIP SCHOOLS.
What is Being Done for Their I'm
prOvement-COmmencement for
BOxwell Graduates.

The pupils of the Canton township schools
who passed the Boxwell examination this
spring, which entities them to enter any high
school in the county, will hold commencement
exercises in the Waco school-house next Fri
day evening. The following are those who
passed and the subjects of their commence
ment essays: Roswell M. Rohrer, "Resolu-
tions;" John Myers, "Americanism;' J. L.
Packer, "China and Japan" Mary Hang,
"Search After Happiness"
Besides these exercises Allen Carnes, presi-
dent of the township board of education, will
deliver an address and musical program will
be rendered by the scholars of the township.
The schools of Canton township are perhaps
in better condition than any other country
schools of the county. Last fall the board APP
pointed superintendent, graded
their schools, and adopted a
regular course of study The superintendent
required monthly meeting of the teachers to
discuss school topics and held an examination
every three months. He visited every school
several times a month and knew just what
was being done. The Canton townships schools
are the only country schools in the county
in which this manner of instruction is carried
out and it has been found to work we'll. The
satisfaction which it has produced is great and
township supervision will be kept up in the
future.

A PROFITABLE SESSION.

The afternoon session of the Northeastern
Medical Society in the assembly room Tuesday
was full of interest. DIR. Hudson reported a
peculiar case of young man from near Bolivar
who had been treated for rheumatism, but did
not seem to do well. The association appoint.
ed Drs. Hamman and Vert, of Cleveland, and
A. B. Walker, of Canton, a committee to in
vestigate the case. They did so and reported
that the young man was suffering from tuber-
culosis of the hip joint.
The principal topic of discus
sion for the day was Append
citis" DIR. N. S. Everhard opened the
question and number of spicy talks were
given by different physicians present One
new thought that was brought out was to the
effect that people might get appendicitis
whether there was foreign matter in the ap
pendix or not. Another point suggested that
the appendix shortened with age and that the
liability of old people to get the disease was
not nearly so great as of young folks.
Before adjournment it was decided to hold
the next meeting at Akron the second Tuesday
in August. After the session closed DR.. Ed
Brant invited the entire assembly up to the
drug store where he treated the crowd to soda
water.
