SCHOOL.
Important 10 Parents.

Few matters are Of more Importance
than the selection Of a school you wish to
attend or send your children, as such Sc
lection is likely to involve consequences
that are lifelong. Such step should not
be taken hastily. The best way is to see for
ones self or see some one who has seen.
To this end prospective students OF Rich
mond's Business College are cordially in
vited to visit the institution and see what
it is and what it does.
Many pupils who have not succeeded well
in other schools have here achieved re-
markabie success, much 10 their own graft
ihcation and that Of their parents.
1t is well-known that the college course
Of study furnishes practical education OF
great value to those who have either lack
ed or neglected early opportunities. and
who find their ignorance not only a con-
stant source Of humiliation, but block of
advancement.
Owing TO the growth Of the college the
past two years the principal has found It
necessary to increase its facilities and to
that end 1t will occupy the entire third
floor and a portion of the second floor of
the present postoffice building. where each
department will have separate rooms and

teacher
The English branch department will be
under the supervision of Prof L. W Camp
bell, who has for several years been con-
nected with one Of the leading colleges of
the country and Is teacher of experience.

for the bridge, which is to be of wood.
were turned over TO the carpenters yes
terday. When the bridge Is completed.
there will be an uninterrupted stretch Of
smooth roadway connecting the Louisville
road with West Broad street.
The new pavement shows every ndica-
ton OF care having been exercised IN its
laying II Is very smooth, having proba-
bly, less roughness than any other Bel
gian block pavement IN the city. How Il will
stand a comparison with the Others after
traffic has passed on IL remains to be SEEN
The pavement will be a great benefit to
the many teams that are driven down
Railroad street IN order 70 reach the bag
gage Office, the depot hack stand and the

This win be reduced only slightly here
and there in such trimming down as might
be indicated as possible by the experience
of the first six months of the year, this
being taken as a basis for calculating the
expenses, for the remaining six months Of
the year.
When this budget was approved by the
grand jury il was stated by the finance
committee Of that body in its report that
the members thought the slight increases
of expenditure over the year preceding as
shown need not enforce an increase in the
rate of taxation. This is what the grand
jury committee had to say about the bud
get and the rate of taxation for the
county:
while some Of our recommendations
call for the expenditure Of money, we
would not be understood as urging inn
provements that will add to the present
rate of taxation, but that these expeudi-
lures take the place Of others heretofore
advisable and not necessarily to be con-
tinued. The burden for municipal and
county support Is all that can well be
borne and has been impercepuhly increas-
ing for the past ten years, as IN the gem
eral decrease Of market values and OF in
comes from real estate, resulting largely
from the increased purchasing power Of
our currency the assessments Of property
have not been lowered.
The county commissioners will pass up-
on the tax rate question at their meeting
to-day when Messrs Kehoe and Guclyen-
heimer will make their report, which will.
no doubt recommend through the neces-
sites which have arisen. the rate OF at
least " for the assessment for the present
year.

They VIII BE visited by the Commit
tee of Citizens This Afternoon.
The interest in the work of the citizens
committee in making a complete tour Of
the county for the purpose of investigat-
ing the drainage increases as the mem
bers proceed with their task.
This committee. at the request Of the
Morning News, has already visited all of
the swamps and drains and canals close
around the city, with the exception of
the DeRenne, the Hampstead and Cuyler
swamps and canals. and it Is their pur-
pose to take a trip to these this after
noon, leaving the De Soto hotel at 3
O'clock The party will make a thor
ough inspection of these swamps and
canals and will afterward take a trip to
the notorious Buckhalter swamp. Since
they began their trips around the city to
view the exact condition of the drainage
they have reported that the bitches and
canals are badly checked almost in every
instance and that stagnant water is to be
found covering acres of land in various
regions of the county close to the city
limits.
Their trip to the DeRenne, Hampstead
and Cuyler watershed to-day will about
complete their trips around the city and
then the members Of the party will decide
about inspecting the more remote dis
tricts of the county. making a visit to the
place where the county convcts are now
at work in a body at Buckhalter swamp.
The daily reports of their investigation
have served to show the people of Sa-
vannah the true condition of the swamps
which encircle the city and menace the
healthfulness Of the community, unless
they are kept In good condition all the
while. The results have been surprising
in showing that the drainage around the
city is being neglected in a disastrous and
dangerous way while the convicts are at
work many miles from the city at Buck
halter swamp.
