Vacancy in State Normal SchOOl
Faculty to Be Filled.
Athens, Ga, Jan. 27.-There is consid-
cradle speculation as to who will be chos-
en- professor of pedagogy at the State
Normal school, when the commission
meets in Atlanta Friday. This is the po>
sition made vacant by the retirement Of
Prof. Phillips a few weeks since, and
several interesting rumors have been go
ing the rounds concerning the successor
ship. 1t has been generally believed that
Prof. E. c. Bronson would be chosen. but
there are those who say he will not be
the man. 1t is rumored that DR.. j. !.
NJ. Curry, agent of the Peabody fund, who
is a special admrer of Prof. Bronson, has
offered to appropriate from that fund
sufficient sum annually to pay Prof.
Bronson's salary, if he is, chosen. The
name of Supt. G.. G.. Bond, of the Athens
city schools, is also mentioned, but Prof.
Bond has a better position now, both is
to congenial work and as to salary, and
the city board of education is very fond
of him and the work he has done in
building up the Athens schools. 1t is
pretty certain that the Normal school
commission will establish a new depart
ment that of elementary sciences, and it
is said that Prof. d. l.. Earnest will be
chosen to preside over that department.

sPURNED HER BETRAYER.
An Ugly Case Has an Unusual Ending
in Court at Atlanta.

Atlanta, Ga. Jan. &C. w. Wilson.
young man employed by the Georgia rail
road his home being in Augusta, got out
of an ugly scrape in a very unusual way
in the criminal branch of the superior
court to-day. Wilson was placed on trial
for the betrayal OF Miss Fannie Rocker, a
young girl formerly employed as an opera
tor in the local telephone exchange. on
his trips to Atlanta Wilson was in the ma
bit of stopping at the same boarding
house with Miss Rocker and by his pro-
testatons of love won her affections and
confidence. He IL was alleged, asked her
to marry him, and under this promise ac-
compllshed her ruin. when arraigned in
court this morning, Wilson stepped for
ward and said that he wanted to marry
the prosccuUIX, andnwas willing to do so
there and then. Under the law a marriage
under such circumstances. or the offer of
marriage made in good faith. relieves the
defendant. These facts were stated to MSS
Rocker, who is a very pretty girl, but she
met the proposal with an indignant refus-
al She would never consent to marriage
with Wilson, she declared ana thereupon
the court ordered a verdict acquitting the
defendant of the indictment against him,
and he went forth free both of prosecution
and the yoke of a benedict, which he ex-
pected TO undertake when he entered the
court room.

verdict had been reached at 10 O'Clock to-
night. Echols is only II years Old. He is
the son of a prominent farmer but has
been wild In his statement he claimed
tina he did not do the shooting, but that it
was done by r. c. West, a man who was
helping Marshal Tidwell arrest Echols.
The best legal talent of Rome Is en-
ployed in the case. Hon. Seaborn Wright
spoke for two hours for the defense, max
ing a strong speech. His brother, Solic-
itor Nose Wright, closed for the state in a
brilliant argument. The jury will proba-
by reach a verdict tomorrow morning.

During the night a slow fire was started

this had eaten its way through the floor
and had undermined the whole room. The
smoke filled the house densely, cutting off

out in a boat and was about to be drowned.

with ice, arrived in time to save the resi-
dence from destruction, and to-day the
chief speaks in high praise of his rival,
