School BOOKS
What They Cost in the City
Schools This Year,.
How They Are Dis
tributed.

The county superintendent of
schools. mir. Wineburg. is com
pletiug his report of the sales of
school books in the county. The
figures relating to the city of Rich
mond show that the common school
books sold in this city brought
S768. 10 for the quarter just ending.
This does not include the high
school books sold during the same
period. These amounted to per-
haps S400 more making the total ex-
pense OF school books ia the city for
the three months about 81, 100 or
s., 200. This is the most important
part of the year in sales of books.
The sales for the balance OF the sess
do not amount to over S4Oo, making
this expense for the year less than
81 600 The manner of the purchase
and distribution of books is regulat-
ed by state law. The superintendent
of the city schools, Mr.. Mott, makes
a requisition on Supt Wineberg fol
the boo ks be thinks needed, and Mr.
Wineberg in turn makes
reouisition on the state
superintendent who issues the
order for the books to the five con
Germs which supply them under con
/ tract with the state. The books are
shipped TO the county superintendent
direct and turned over to the CITY
Superintendent and other corpora
tions for whom they havt beer
ordered
When the books are sold the super
| intendentS turn the money over Il
I Mr.. Wiueberp, who sends it to th'
concerns which supplied the books
In this city Mr. Mott receives th'
books and distributes them to th'
different grade teachers who maxi
their reports from sales to him direct
BY this manner of selling the book
the state expected to save to th
parents the 10 per cent. which III
publishers were supposed to pay to
private dealer for handling them, bu
it is said oy those who know that tn
actual saving is less than per cent.
not enough to recompense for th
annoyance it is to the teachers al,
superintendents.

TRACTION LINES.
The Committee Meets and
Discusses the Ordinance
to be Presented at Next
Council Meeting.

The activity which is being dis
PLAYED by the local traction company
indicates that matters in that regard
are progressing. although the lines
which were so numerously repre-
sented here earlier in the fall do not
appear to be paying any attention TO
to this city. 1t begins TO look as II
the city lines proper were to be as
snmed by the local company whose
franchise covers Rearlv every street
in the city. Though they have not
au exclusive franchise, since that IS
impossible under the laws of the
state. they are first on the ground
and another company would hardly
care to lay tracks beside theirs IL
they once get their tracks down.
Then, too, it would be hardly desira-
BILE to have tracks doubled on the
streets.
The ordinance committee met last
evening, at the city clerk 5 Office. all

and Q Neal.
The local traction company was
represented by Messrs. Smith, Lonfz
and Freeman.

terurban lines was fully discussed,
bat nothing was done. The commit
tee will meet again before having the
ordinance framed, and it will be pre-
seuted at the next session OF council.
The committee are endeavoring TO
draft an ordinance in regard to in
terurban lines which shall be so ar
ranged that all companies desiring
to come in now or hereafter can get
/ in on the same basis. The
ordinance will, the commit
/ tee saw, be such as VIII

THE CHURCH COLUMN

The topics for next Sabbath are
rs follows; For the morning SER
vice. "The Lord Hath Need Of
Thee, and for the evening, Work
ed Out Salvation"
There will be preaching at Union
next Sabbath afternoon.
The general public is invited to
attend the preaching service At
the church tonight. The presiding
elder, the Rev. J. r. Wright, will
preach. his subject being, "Our Ma
tional Calamity" At the close of
this service the second quarterly
conference will be held.
The lecture last Saturday evening
was exceptionally good The at.
tendance was not quite up 10 our
expectation. We expected u $50
House. That was 50 too high
The storm on Sunday night kept
a large number from the service,
hut as it was, a very respectable
audience came out to hear the Rev.
J. A Wheeler give his most excel
lent sermon on temperance. He
took for his text the 33d, saith and
35th verses of the fourth chapter of
st. Luke. The spirit of the unolenn
devil spoken of in the text is the
spirit Of the rum traffic. The great
cry of the liquor business is, LET
MS alone Let us rob men sof their
brains, their manhood, and their
lives. Let us alone, let us take the
clothes off of the backs of children
and the bred out of their mouths.
Let us alone, let us curse body and
soul, and ruin for this life and for
eternity" But Jesus cast out the
unclean devil and no hurt followed
1t would not hurt Milford no, it
would make it a Garden of the
Lord" in more than natural scenery
if the saloons were driven out
That the president of these United
States, man of the exalted charac-
ter and extended usefulness of viii
liam Mckinley, should be shot by
the employe of a brewer, is a very
significant fact. Anarchy and the
rum fiend go hand in hand. We
have given them loose rein and suf-
fer the natural consequence. Let
our slumbering consciences arouse
and suppress anarchy, and its twin
brother, the legalized saloon, and
then our hands will be clean. and
our nation safe.
The church is receiving a coat OF
paint which it has so long needed.
Many thanks are expressed to all
who have contributed to add this
beauty to the house of worship.
May the increased beauty of the
church without be but the indica.
tion of the more beautiful church
within.
