SMITHS COURSE ALL RIGHT.
Commissioner Glenn says He Acted
PrOperIy.

Waycross, Ga. Aug. State School
Commissioner G. r. Glenn was in Way
cross yesterday, and in company with
Ordinary Warren Lott with reference TO
the muddle over the Ware county school
commi s.oner ship, he stated that he did
not consider any further investigation of
Mr.. Smith boo1s neces airy.
He stated that the commissioner had
properly signed vouchers for every dollar
he had paid out, and for every dollar re-
ceived as his sa airy; that he had render
cd his bill for every day allowed by law
and that the beard OF education had
anted him that amount as his remuner-
alton, according to his vouchers
Mr.. G enn contends thai the Board of
Education that passed upon this matter
is just as much to blame as Commission
er Smith
1t will be remembered that the matter
was brought up by the grand jury at the
April term of Ware Superior Court, that
body demanding an invest cation of Hon.
j. d. Smiths books, and requesting his
resignation. A full investigation OF his
books BY the Beard Of Ed
ucadon. assisted by Hon. Warren
Lott failed 10 discover anything wrong.
The only question was the amount of Mr..
Smiths remuneration, and he commended
then and does to-day that he is not will
ing to work for $500, the amount stipu-
lated by the board this year.
Mr.. Smith says he will tender his resig-
nation to the board at once, and it is I'M
derstood that a number of applicants
will be before the board seeking the
place.

CURRENCY IN KENTUCKY.
Coon Skins for Drinks and Potatoes
to Pay the Fiddler.


Beaufort S. c., July 31.-A commercial
traveller related the following interesting
story here to-day: II was in the noun
tain districts of Kentucky early
last spring. 1 stopped one morn
ing at small grocery store
and saloon to get a drink of the
mountain dew While l was pouring out
my drink, a big, lanky mountaineer en-
tered and called for drink. AS he fin
ished gulping it down he reached into a
large pocket and drew forth what looked
to be a coon skin. He laid the skin on
the counter. The barkeeper took it, and,
opening drawer, hauled out a rabbit
skin, which he rendered the mountaineer
as change. The latter picked up the skin
and started to the front part of the store,
which was the grocery department, where
he bought twist of plug tobacco, tender
ing his rabbit skin in payment He re-
ceived a big twist OF chewing tobacco, and
l was surprised to see the proprietor reach
in another drawer and tender him a squir
rel skin. The mountalneer tucked his
squirrel skin in his pocket walked out,
unhitched his horse and rode off.
IL became interested and engaged the
proprietor in conversation. He told me
that sometimes months would elapse with
out his ever once seeing any real money,
and that the mountaineers used the skins
in all kinds of trades, such as buying pro-
visions, horses, etc. He said that four
times a year hide buyer from Lexington
or Cincinnati visited the section and
bought up ali the skins, which were gen.
orally concentrated in the few stores in
the vicinity.
But of all the queer financial transac-
lions l have ever known" continued the
drummer, 1.-The oldest came under the
head of paying the fiddler 1t had been
noised abroad that dance was to be Civ
en- a little way up the mountain, and
agreed to go along with one of the boys
to see the fun After going through the
elaborate preparation of backing his
boots and donning a white shirt and col
lar l observed my companion go to the
potato bin and carefully selecting dozen
choice potatoes, put them in his pocket.
No sooner had we arrived at the music
holr than he gracefully surrendered his
vegetables for an entrance ticket But
what puzzled me the most was that upon
coming out, after dancing all night. he
was given two onions as change. / have
been trying to make up my mind ever
since just what that dance was worth In
national currency"

ENGLAxD's GROWING GREED.
IL Is Standing in the Way of Domes
tic Reforms.

London. Aug. during the debate in
the House of Commons to-day on the
bin for supplemental war loan OF IS. 100000,
Sir William Vernon Harcourt, Liberal,
said, that owing to the existence of three
fragmentary budgets, he was unable to
conclude at what she government figured
the cost of the war. He estimated that
it would be nearer 100000 than $50 Co.,
900.
Sir William added that statesmen of the
highest authority were impressing upon
the British the fact that they were the
best hated people in the world. Lord
Salisbury could not understand the reason,
but Lord Rosebery knew the cause of this
hatred Lord Rosebery had declared thai
the empire needed peace. The last TWEEN
~ years Great Britain had been laying
hands with almost frantic eagerness on
every desirable tract of territory adjacent
to its own. This greed excited envy and
stood in the way of domestic reforms.

NEW YORK DIVE RAIDED.
Over 200 Men and Women Arrested
at the Famous TivOli.

at the Famous IlNOn.
New York. Aug. 1-Police made a raid
on the Tivoli concert hall in West S5th
street at Il o'clock tonight and more
than 200 men and women were taken
prisoners. 1t was one of the biggest raids
ever made in New York.
Fifty policemen in plain clothes and the
reserves from the Tenderloin precinct de-
seconded upon the dive in a body and
closed every avenue of escape. -Four pa
troll wagons were employed to cart the
prisoners 10 police stations.
Fifty-four women and 154 men were
taken to the police station. The women
were locked up and the men were re-
leased after being warned by Captain
Thomas that he would hold them If they
were caught again
When the raid was about to be made
word spread all over Broadway and the
gixth avenue district, and Thirty-fifth
street between Sixth and Seventh was
packed with people when the patrol wa
CONS started on their trips.
The prisoners were greeted with deri-
sive boots and wells. Another crowd num-
boring 900 gathered around the police.
Capt. Thomas entrance was dramatic.
He was in a unifo,m and when he had
marched his men inside he took posi-
ton In the middle of the hall and glared
around him for a full minute. Every body
was scared and when the captain had
satisfied himself Of this he exclaimed the
strically:
'Every man and woman in this place is
to consider themselves under arrest"
Bedlsm br, Ike loose as soon as the cap-
tain had finished his defamation, and
screams and yells of terror, some real,
some simulated filed the place. Many Of
the w men trisd TO faint and a few sue
ceeded, and the men who had Just
dropped in TO see what the place was like,

Detective Glennon won the plaudits of
she crowd in the street when he escorted
a pretty Salvation Army lass with a bum
die OF War Crys 10 the door and babe
her depart in peace.
1t took several trips 10 the wagons to
carry the l54 men prisoners 10 the police
station.
Names and addresses were taken at the
station, and after Capt. Thomas had
given warning that he would hold them

ITCH IS TORTURE.

Eczema IS caused by an acid humor in
the blood coming i'll contact with the
skin and producing great redness and in
Illumination little pustular eruptions form
and discharge thin, sticky fluid, which
dries and scales off sometimes the skin is
hard, dry and fssured Eczema in any
form is torinenting, stubborn disease,
and the itching and burning at times are
almost unbearable; the acid burning
humor seems to ooze out and set the skin
on fire. Salves, washes nor other exter-
nal applications do any real good for as
long as the poison remains in the blood
it will keep the skin irritated.
