Colonel G. P. Goodyear, a lawyer
living in the city. The results were
accomplished by the use Of dynamite
and auxiliary methods, alike unique
and cheap as compared with the costly
engineering projects at other ports.
Since 1895 Colonel Goodyear has se-
cured an increased depth of seven feet,
expending for the same s245, 200. This
amount leaves him in debt $25 900, and
he asks the government to reimburse
him for this extra amount when the
additional appropriation required Is
made. The best informed citizens
believed that The proposed appropria-
ten, the plans of which are Endorsed
by the War Department, is in every
way just and will no doubt be granted
by the next Congress. AS a result OF
Colonel GOOdYear's achievements the
com merce Of Brunswick, export and
import, has increased from $12, 1896, 967
in 1895 to S24,714,03s In 1900. The
1900 values lie principally in the fact
that about $50, 100000 equare feet OF
lumber, timber, shingles, slaves, laths,
and crossties, and over 295, 900 barrels
of naval stores (resin and turpentine) },
also over $4,000 bales of cotton and
manufactured sheeting, were shipped
through this port.

AN IMPORTANT MEETING
Will Be Held at the Public Schools Today
Parents of Pupils Invited to Attend.

On Thursday, May End, at o'clock,
the par ents of the children attending the
public schools will assemble at the
school house, by invitation of Professor
Orr, to discuss the progress made by
the children during the year, and other
matters incidental to school work. This
IS splendid opportunity for parents
to talk over matters pertaining to the
abilities or disabilities of their children,
While, Of course, In as large and well
filed school as the school here is, 8
great deal OF uniform routine work must
be done, still, 1t is not always an i'm.
possibility to observe and deal with
separately any popularity whether as
to discip Iinary or educational matters)
which may exist in any child.
One of the strong points of Prof. Orl's
superintendence has been his insist
ence on the individual teacher endeav-
ing to understand and influence the in
dividual child. To make herself famtl>
lar as far as possible with the ideas and
aims of the souls entrusted to her care,
and slowly but surely to elevate them
not only mentally, but morally and
physically. A great amount of attention
is paid to what might be called minor
details, but are really very important,
such as calisthenics, and other physical
exercises, and the effect If moral sua-
sion instead of the promiscuous use OF
the birch, as in olden time.
A general air of understanding and
good fellowship psrvades the entire
system, both among the teachers and
pupils, and the cooperation Of the pa
rents Is most earnestly desired.
The educational princip plies of the
schools are kept up to tho very highest
notch Of perfection, each teacher striv
ing to do her BEST in her own depart
ment and to help and encourage the
others. There is great amount of
work involved In keeping the machine
cry of a large school in perfect running
order, but there seems to be no friction
whatever in the daily discharge of tbs
duties. The supplementary reading
10 the grades Is we'll conducted, the
books for the library having been chosen
BY the teachers. The parents are
earnestly requested to attend this
where they will be welcome.

his arrest followed the confession o.
O'Neill Chestnut, at Macon, to his part il
the robbery, after he had been identified
by Express Messenger White, at the same
time duplicating G. R Jordan as his &C
complete.
As soon as Chef Ball received the de

elapsed until the man wanted was behind
the bars.
When carried to the police station tn

The Macon authorities were immediate
Iy notified of the arrest and Detective
