FULTON SCHOOL
TO BE COMPLETED
Great Interest in the Appointment
of a. Teacher of Music in
the Schools.

The City School Board is much PLEASED
to be able to complete the Nicholson
Street school building The present struc-
ture only permits of an eight-room school
and the children who desire to take the
higher grammar grades have to take q
long trip to other schools. When COM
pleted there will be provision for full
fourteen-room school, and also for an as
sembly hall. The work will commence
promptly on June 18th, as soon as the
school vacation begins. and the board
hopes to have the completed building
ready for occupancy on the beginning of
the next session, on September 18th. The
plans for the entire building are now in
the City Engineers office.
The completion of the Nicholson build
ing will necessitate five additional teach
ers, for which provision was made i'll the
budget. These teachers will not be elected
for some time yet.
Those interested in the schools are
much pleased with the arrangements
made for securing the entire time Of a
music teacher. Mr.. Mercer. who has so
satisfactorily done work of this charac-
ter in the schools will be secured, and it
is thought the chorus instruction in cnun-
citation of the elements OF harmony, as
well as in chorus singing. will be a re-
lief from the routine of school duties, and
will educate a taste for music and a sense
of the beautiful in the children in a high
degree.

CHESTER. VA, March 1.-Since yes
terday's communication as to the wounded
man found in the school-house, your cor
respondent learns that two men, hauling
logs for the saw mill near this place, saw
i'll the woods on Monday, south of this
place, a man who had a cut on the fore
head and blood on his clothes, who got
rosin from a pine and smeared over the
blood on his clothes. II is true that a
neighbor saw the mans tracks in the
snow on Sunday morning, going out from
the school site, but not knowing of any
trouble at the time, paid no attention to
them. These tracks were going in the
direction Of the place where the mill
people saw the man. The direction. was
south from this place, nearby and parallel
with the eaboard Air Line Railroad.
The entertainment given last night by
Mr.. H. D. Eichelberger, of this place. to

JEFFERSoN's spECTACLEs,
Pair Worn by the Great Statesman Exhibited
Here

A Pair worn BY the ureat Statesman Exhibited
Here.
Mr.. A. G. Pretlow, of Powhatan county,
interested a number OF his friends in this
city yesterday with a peculiar pair of
spectacles, Worn for many years by
Thomas Jefferson.
The lenses are of the exact size OF a
dime. They are set in very substantial
frames of solid silver, made by McAllister
& Co., of Philadelphia, firm still in ex-
istence for some time ago Mr.. Pretlow
wrote to know if the glasses were really
made for Jefferson, and received in re-
ply letter from the house stating that
on a. certain date of about a century ago
pair of spectacles were made by the house
,Gor 'lMr. Thomas Jefferson, of Charlottes-
vile, Va and describing the glasses.
The description shows the spectacles in
Mr.. PretloW's possession to be those Of
Thomas Jefferson beyond question.
Indeed, Mr.. Pretlow inherited the
glasses and is a direct descendant OF the
great statesman. The spectacles came
down through Colonel Alexander Garrett,
who married niece Of Thomas Jefferson.
Colonel CARROTS wife was the daughter
Of this union. Colonel Garrett was for
long years the clerk Of the Albemarle
County Court
The unusually small size OF the glasses
is said to be due to the Observation-Disclosures
of N1r. Jefferson. He frequently took off
his glasses and laid them down when in
interested conversation. Then he would
get up and go away, forgetting that he
had not his spectacles. So he had made
pair with very small lenses, so that by
showing them down only D short way on
his nose. he could see over them and talk
without Inconvenience.
