RUSSIA PREPARES FOR WAR.
Surprising Activity Said to Prevail
at Sebastopol.

A London cablegram to The New
York World says:
"Lloyds' great shipping agency was
yesterday thrown into a state Of per-
turbation by the receipt from Lloyds'
agent at Sebastopol of code word sig
nifying that Russia was making there
surprising warlike preparations.
'The company cabled back asking for
details out of cipher, believing that a
wrong code word must have been used.
The reply came at once that the code
word was correct; that active war
like preparations were proceeding at
SebaStopol.
Now said a member of Lloyds,
our agents are not hysterical; you may
put what Interpretation you like upon
our advices. My belief is that Russia
means business against someone, and
may not these unprecedented royal
happenings mean that the queen calls
her people, not forgetting Ireland,
about her, in view, possibly, of great
er storm than we are now weatherine
in South Africa"

COUNTY SCHOOL DIRECTORS.
Regular March Meeting Decided Not
to Sell Federal Point school Building.
Situation aS to Delgado school.

The March meeting of the county
board of school directors was held
yesterday The only matter of any pub
lie interest aside from the routine
work of auditing current bills was the
consideration Of a recommendation by
Captain Ed. Wilson Manning, super
intendent of county schools, that they
sell the school house at Federal Point.
Captain Manning stated to the board
that the school house has been aban-
doned for four years for the reason
that there are not enought children in
the district to justify employing a
teacher. The board decided that the
wisest plan would be to retain the
building despite this fact, unless they
could get price that would justify the
sale.
Captain Manning will remove all the
school furniture at once and distribute
it among the schools in the county
where there is n shortage of des,-s.
The board die not take up the mat
ter of opening . school at Delgado
mills at their meeting yesterday. In
speaking of the matter yesterday Cap
tain Manning said that the committee
appointed to Investigate the school
needs Of Delgado village decided to
take no steps now on account of the
shortage or money and the nearneSS
to the close of the present school term.
They think it expedient to wait until
July, when the apportionment of
school funds will be made among all
the schools and they will then have
sufficient time to prepare for the open
ing of the Delgado school in the early
fall. Mr.. Holt has expressed his will
lingness to assist in the establishment
of the school and there is no doubt
that DelQafiO VILLAGE will have a Srnool
well equipped during the next school
