The work Of the present term in the
high school is especially progressive.
Principal Winfrey now has a very
capable assistant and is thus given
more time TO oversee the work of al

trustees for laboratory work is another
valuable aid to the progress of the
schools.
The principal has taken radical
\ step that will materially raise the
standard of upper class work. The
tenth grade has been designated as the
ninth and the eleventh as the tenth.
This will result in no graduations next
spring and the upper class pupils will
be given one more years work. When
they do graduate they will be better
equipped than former classes. This
move was taken after mature deib-
eratien and consultation between all
interested parties. The move Of the
principal has been unanimously en-
dorsed

CECIL RHODES THE MAN.


Cecil Rhodes in personal appear
snoe gave the impression that he
was taller than, in fact, he was.
There was a certain leonine majesty
about him which bespoke man born
to command. In his dress he was
unconventional to an extreme. No
one cared Jess for pomp. The King
of the Diamond Mines, he never
deigned TO bedeck himself with a
brilliant. His hair, which became
gray after the raid, was as often
touselled as smooth. He was always
smoothly shaver. He had a some.
what rubicund visage, a steely blue
gray eye, the jaw of William the
Conqueror, and the brow of a poet.
No one was more given to meditation
than he. For love of nature and
constant communion with stars and
sky and fl overs and trees, he might
have been the twin brother of Words
worth. Even in death he decreed
that he should be buried in the
midst of mountains commanding
scenery so sublime that he named it
The View of the World. Mr.. Herbert
Baker, who knew him we'll, says:
"The ennobling influence of natural
scenery was present in his mind in
connection with every site he chose
and every building he contemplated"
He adds: she had the building
ambition of a Pericles or a Hadrian,
and in his untimely death architec-
ture has the greatest cause to
mourn"
He was a great reader. Gibbons

favorite books. He sent me $500

the book-shelves of a colonial pre-
mier. When 1 got their replies, I
bought the books and sent them out.

of them, but because he looked upon
them as Injuries"

In religion he was an agnostic, ad.
uniting, however, that there was
TO quote his own phrase-a so per
cent. chance that there was a God.
But he got on famously with General
Booth, of the Salvation Army, in
whose pocial work he was greatly in
terested.

In ~lS99-19OO, the last year for

OF school age in the ten States South
of the Potomac and the Ohio and
east of the Mississippi, including
Louisiana, was 5,645, 1854; the total

The average amount expended for

of school property for each child, in
Guiding houses, grounds and equip
ments, was So. 90, varying from 81. Sc
in North Carolina to 81. 80 in Ken
tucky. This is an accumulation of
school property equal only TO 81 cents
per capita of the entire population of
North Carolina, and 81 sc in Ken

property per capita for the ten states
was 81 SO. The total per capita ex-

frightful destruction of property,

ing, for these streams furnish the
water power for many cotton mills.
Is is estimated that there is now
along the banks of the streams in
this locality O,OOO developed horse
power and potential power amount
ing 80 1000, 900 horsepower. The
lands which comprise the territory
whioh,it is the object Of the bill now
before Congress TO purchase and set
aside as a forest reservation are now
owned by numerous private parties,
perhaps 1000 in all and they can be
purchased for a moderate price, pos.
sibly for 90 an acre. The bill pro-
poses to appropriate $40, 600, 900 for
the purchase of these lands, $2,OOO,-
900 of which shall be Immediately
available. The purchasing shall be
entirely in the hands of the Score
tary of Agriculture. Judging by
the returns from properly managed
European forests it is safe to predict
that eventually sufficient timber
could be sold by government to en-.
tirely reimburse it for the outlay and
the saving TO the section may be esti-
mated at $50, 900, 900 from damage by
floods and $50, 900, 900 in fuel, by the
use of water instead of steam power"
A bill providing for the establish
ment of this has been re-

similar has been introduced
in the Senate and is nowi in the Com
mittee on Forest Reservations, etc.

There is no more ardent advocate

as a forest reservation had amounted
TO so, 900, 900, and that the damage
along the course of the Catawba
River alone had amounted during
July and August of last year TO ST.
SOC, 900. "This serious destruction
of property" continued the Senator,
