A meeting of the fourth-c]ass post
masters of Morrison county was set
for Saturday afternoon at Hotel
Buchanan. but the number who re.
sponded to the call was too small to
transact any business. There is a
movement among the postmaste tiers
of this class all over the country to
see if something cannot be done to
increase the pay they receive for their
services. There were only three post
masters from Morrison county Offices
to attend the meeting. They were
s. s. Langmade, of Randall, Henry
Gedney, Of Green Prairie, and Mr..
Lille. of Gravelville, and it is evident
from the turn out that the majority
of them in this county have not
much confidence .in the outcome OF
their efforts toward an increase In
pay being successful.

V. f. Kasparek, notwithstanding
the surprising fact that the letter
contains statements that might be
construed as criticism Of the
political conduct Of the. Transcript.
Mr.. X. feels called upon to state that
he did not break promise, but did
abrOgate a concession. He says: IL

years ago" During the campaign
it was stated in these columns that
lie asked I. W. Bouck and A. SimOnet
to nominate him in the Republican
convention. If we are not mistaken,
the Royalton Banner quoted him
some weeks before the convention,
as saying he was a candidate. He
made a very poor imitation Of the
martyr business in politics.

experience when ON his way to his

He says that when about half way

with him on his nocturnal trip,
perhaps thinking that the lead lie
had struck would bring him to some
hen house or sheep pasture, where
he could enjoy a feast. Andrew
resented bruins familiarity, not
considering him d congenial com
panion, and in order to rid himself
of bruins obnoxious presence, ne
cut gait down the road that
would have made "COwboy' Smith
quit before he had covered 100 yards.
Andrew does not know how far he
was followed for he did not have
time To look back. but after running
about.a half mile he came to the
house of a neighbor where he stayed
un night.
He claims to have confirmed his
story by showing the animals tracks
to his neYghbors this morning.
We are not familiar with the
habits OF the bear but were under
the impression that this was his
season for taking a nap, and are
inclined to hink.although we would
nor accuse him of it, that Andrew
was the victim Of Il vision.

Is desired
Mr.. Barrow said all five Of those who
called for the special meeting wanted an
art school. They reserved their judgment
ana vote until this meeting, IN order 10
learn whether the continuation Of Nj
Brandt as director would interfere with
the Inauguration Of an art school No
reason, he said, has been given to show
that there is anything whatever in the
way Of establishing an art school. If
good reasons had been given, ne said, ne
would have voted for the resolution, but
ne was not prepared 10 do so until better
reasons were shown for it-better than
mad been given at the meeting.
On two occasions, he said, he had heard
Alr. Brandt eulogized in the society meet
ings. One was at that meeting by Col.
and half ago by Col Garrard, and
the Ia latter, he believed, was the stronger
Col W. w. Gordon then offered a reso-
iulOn providing a plan for the estab-
lishment Of an art school and the paying
OF the Indebtedness OF Gen. Jackson and
10 MI Brandt with the income Of the
academy. Mr. Theus, however, refused
to withdraw his substitute.
Mr.. Theus made a few remarks Indoors
ing the action of the board. Mr. Wal
ter G.. Charlton praised Mr.. Brandt, and
believed the boards action should be in
an others wanting an art school. Mr..
W. X keaken took Col Garrard's view
OF the situation.
DR.. r. ]. Mum stated that ne desired
to see an art school established. but he
differed with some as 10 the means of
getting at 1t. He agreed with Gen. Jack
sons position that none Of the money
from Miss Telfairs bequest could be
used for the purpose under the terms Of
her Will
The question was called for, and Judge
Norwood explained that under the cir
cumstances it was only necessary to vote
on the resolution introduced by Col. Gar
rard. Mr.. Theus then withdrew his mo-
ton, and the resolution Of Col. Garrard
was put before the meeting. 1t was lost
by a vote of "a to 20, the action of the
board of managers being sustained and
confirmed
The question of Col. Gordon's resoIu-
ton looking toward some steps for the
founding of an art school was then con-
sdered. II was suggested that II be re-
they report on it to the next regular meet
ing. Capt. Cunningham suggested that this
might be done through any member of
the board, as they had such a proposition
now under discussion, on which they would
make a report at the next regular meet
ing of the society. The meeting then ad-
journed.
The discussion in some points took
much wider scope than note has been made
of for lack of space. One questi par
ticularly brought out, however, was as to
the meaning of the word academy in Miss
Telfair's will. That has never been con-
strued by the courts. Some of the mem
bers held II meant a school for instruc-
ton in arts, and others that it meant
place, for keeping such works of art
for the benefit of the public as were des-
ignated in the will. This point is liable
the question OF inaugurating an art school
comes up.

MAY REQUIRE A NEW QUARANTINE
Capt. Carter Explains Reasons for
the Order of the War Department.

1t is likely that the Improvement of the
river channel at quarantine will be con-
Quoted without serious damage to the city
by injury to the quarantine property.
Capt o. NJ. Carter. engineer in charge,
has explained the matter to the commit
tee of the whole of the city council. He
showed the committee that the straight
ening of the channel at quarantine is de-
sirable and important portion of the i'm
prOvement of the river.
The. reason why the city was called
upon to remove the Instructions which it
had been permitted to place on the har-
Dor line, he stated, was that il had been
found that sufficient money would be left
out of the appropriation to permit of I'M
dertak1ng this work and II was thought
advisable to do so at once.
The proposed Improvement will take off
about 800 feet of the island on which the
quarantine station Is situated and will
bring the channel to within 100 feet of the
door Of the quarantine officers house. If
the present station is maintained it will
be necessary to move the dsinfecting
plant back for a distance of 800 feet or
more.
Mayor Myers, when spoken to about the
matter, said that the city would be put to
considerable expense and Inconvenience
by the work. At the same time, he said,
il would not interpose any obstacles in
the way of the Improvement of the river.
However, he said the best part of the
CANy , WudINco dl TIE SldNlOu were Dulll
before the route of the new channel was
established by the war department and
this being the case the city would demand
compensation for their removal and prob
ably also for the loss to which it would
be subjected If 1t should prove necessary
to remove the quarantine station.
THE Improvement will put the city in
somewhat of a quandary," said Mayor
Myers. THE present location of the sta
ton is not an especially desirable one and
the changing of the channel will make il
still less so. The old station which was
abandoned on account of the government
work on the river, was not a desirable
location and is not now. The question
may prove a troublesome one. The cost
to the city of removing the distractions
which it has placed on the harbor line
since its establishment in 1898, will not
be any great matter. 1t will probably be
necessary to erect a wharf at the old
quarantine site for the use of vessels
while the government work is in pro-

THE LAuRADA Due IN MoNRovIA.
Treasurer Howard Expecting News
of Her Arrival

Mr.. T. d. Howard. treasurer OF the In
ternational Migration Society. is in the
city looking after the society's interests
here He said yesterday that he expect
ed to hear Of the arrival of the Laurada
at MonrOvia within week OF less time. -
1t takes about eighteen days TO make
the voyage from Savannah to MOnrovia,
and this will put the Laurada in port
sometime tonight or Tomorrow morn
ing, provided nothing has interfered with
the voyage. 1t then takes several days to
get message from MonrOvia even with
the aid OF cable wires. The message has
to be sent from Monrovia some 800 or 100
miles up the coast by mail. and from
there IL is cabled to Liverpool, and then
to New York.
Mr. Howard says the society has had
large increase in membership since the
Laurada left. If he Should attempt to
carry all who want to go. he says he
could send ten ship loads Tomorrow
Many Of the negroes are finding a hard
time paying up, however. and IL may be
some little time before another cargo can
be gotten together on that account.
The appearance of the crowd which
sailed from Savannah on the Laurada,
stirred up the country negroes here and
many of them have gone directly into the
society and begun paying their dues.
