Lee The crime was committed about
FIVE miles from Dublin, on the east side
of the river The negroes are not as much
stirred up over the crime as they are over
the crime of John Robinson, who muir
dered his victim
Yesterday afternoon the City Board of
Education held a meeting and reelected
the entire corps of teachers of the Dublin
public schools except Mrs. ] "A. Peacock,
music teacher. and Miss Ruby Hightower,
teacher of the seventh grade, both of
whom declined reelection. The following
were the teachers elected: ]. c. Wardlaw,

c. c. Daley, teacher of elocution and
physical culture; Mrs. J. S. Simons, Jr.,
teacher of art; Miss Lucy Chapman,

Misses Julia Thweatt, Lizzie May Duncan,
Mamie Ramsey, Annie Green and Etna
Peacock. The position of teacher of the
seventh grade was not filled. the election
of this teacher being postponed until the
18th instant
New officers of the Board of Education
were also elected yesterday afternoon,
this being necessary because the terms of
President ]. NJ. Minar and Secretary K
H. Walker have expired, the City Council
electing Messrs. J. H. Witherington and
B. II. Rawls in their places. The election
resulted as follows: President, J. T.
Smith; secretary, ]. H. Witherington;
treasurer, A p Hilton.
For several days rumors have been
prevalent on the streets of Dublin that
about three weeks ago four young Dublin
people were secretly married. This all of
the parties concerned deny, though the
records of the ordinary of the county
show that a license was recently issued
for one of the couples. The rumor states
that a certain justice of the peace per-
formed both marriage ceremonies. The
justice in question will neither deny or
affirm whether or not he officiated at the
marriage of one or both or neither. 1t is
the belief of the people that one of the
couples really are married, but that the
rumors concerning the other originated
by joke.
Mr. Paul Hough, who for ten years past
has filled the dual position of conductor
of the Macon, Dublin and Savannah road
and chief clerk to Geenral Manager James
T. Wright, has been appointed assistant
to the president, and will move his family
from Dublin to Macon. Conductor Brown
of the Southern Road succeeds Mr.. Hough
as conductor on the Macon, Dublin and
Savannah Road.

THE RUBBERNECK EXCURSION.
A New Way of Seeing Washington
With Lots of Information Thrown
From the New York Sun.


Washington, May 1s-The rubberneck
excursion Is the newest plan of sightsee-
ing in Washington. 1t consists of a two
hours street car trip all over the city
without transfer with a conductor lee
turing through a megaphone from start
to finish, and all for the sum of so cents.
The idea is a great success Three or
Tour trips a day are made and each
time the 4O-foot car is crowded to the
limit and beyond
Right this way, please" called out the
manager of the tours, a handsome we'll
dressed young man. as he gathered his
passengers. No soner had the crowd
climbed into the car than the dapper
young manager passed along saying:
Kindly turn your seats the other way
a moment We want to take a picture
OF the car; some Of the New York papers
want it," Then he added soto voice
Maybe"
The passengers complied readily enough.
the manager assumed striking attitude
on the front platform, the shutter click
ed and the passengers changed their seats
again.

guide, holding to his mouth a megaphone
about twelve inches long, as the car
started. From this point the Seeing
Washington Excursion starts on its grand
tour of the city. Directly in front you see

Jackson's administration there was a
prolonged dispute over where the Trea-'
sury building should be located. One day,
while discussing the subject with the
Secretary of the Treasury, Jackson. who
had grown weary of the squabble, thrust
his cane in the ground and said. Here
is where it shall be built and it is there

In the face of men and women were
very much alike. but there is a subtle
charm about the female faces that is re-
placed by placid dignity in the male.
In both the features are delicate and Of
a somewhat aquiline type, and the figures
are tall and slight. There is very little
indication of muscle, but the men are
bnoad-shouldered and thin-flanked, while
the women, in spite of their stin attl-
tudes, are graceful and refined. In both
the forms are soft and rounded. The
resemblance between the men and the
women is, of course, increased by the
men being always clean-shaven.
In the paintings and bas-reliefs there
are certain conventions which do not ap-
ply to the statues, and for these due ale
lowance has to be made.
