cipaI of the Moore School.

Snsley, July 23-(Special. 1.-THE school
board met in the Mayors office last night
for the purpose of electfng teachers to
complete the corps for the coming year.
The meeting for this purpose was orig
inally designed to be held in August, but
1t was thought better to hold it at this
time in order that the teachers not elect
ed might be enabled to secure positions
elsewhere. One of the first propositions to
come before the board was to give names
to the school buildings by which they
might be officially known hereafter. The
first building erected, and that in which
Prof. D. j. Moore taught the session of
1861, was named the Moore SCHOOL, the
last building erected and that In which
the higher grades were taught in 1902
under the supervision of Prof Ernest f.
Bush, was named the Bush School"
This is fitting tribute to these estimable
gentlemen, and will live long as a monu-
ment TO fne efforts made by them for the
cause of education IN Ensiey.

a critical condition. Sunday night while
in Admission he was taken Ill with pains
in the abdomen which he thought was
only an attack of collie. ne came to his
home in Selma Monday afternoon and
was seen by his physician. The case
was Immediately diagnosed as appended
tbs and a consultation held yesterday af-
ternoon further confirmed he diagnosis.
This morning it was decided that an OPP
GRAFTON was imperatively necessary and
the findings of the surgeons proved the
wisdom of this course. The abcesses
were found near the appendix, one in
front and one in the rear of that menu
Der. The appendix itself was perforated
and in another day would have stuffed
off. The physicians state that the COM
plant of the bishop resembled very much
that of King Edward only in more COM
pick form.
The bishop was removed to the infirm-
airy this morning and the operation was
performed by DIR. Dawson Furniss, assist
y. L.
Mss, B. B. Hogan and Ira Skinner The
puss from the abcesses was cleaned out
and the appendix removed, drain being
left as was done in the case of the King.
The physicians state that the patient
rallied from the first shock of the opera
ton and that unless general peritonitis
or some other complication sets in his
chances of recovery are fair. That his
condition is very serious but not necessar-
lily fatal.
Bishop Barnwell is greatly loved not
only In this his home for twenty years.
but all over the state. kilograms have
come pouring In from various sources to-
day asking about his condition and the
prayers of the state are being sent up for
his recovery.
The physicians are unanimous In de-
elaring that but for the operation he
could not have possibly survived more
than one or two days.

at the Noble Street Theatre last night
under the auspices of the local Soil Pipe
and Fitting Moulders Union. A large
audience was present, several ladies be-
ing a part of 1t, and the talk was very
much enjoyed. Mr.. Leath spoke on sew
eral subjects which are of vital interest
to the union and laboring people. He
touched on the election of the railroad
commissioners by the people, upon free
school books and upon child labor. He
quoted statistics on the last subject, as
follows: There are 100000 school children
in Alabama of school age. OF this num-
Der 100000 attend school. The white chill
dren are now in the majority by So, liz,
which shows that the negro gets 10 per
cent of the school funds, while he fur
nishes only 6 per cent. The South Caro-
lima negro children are in the majority
by 100000 which he says will be the same
in Alabama in ten years If the present
rate of building cotton mills that employ
child labor continues. He said that sta
tistics show that the average life of
children that are mill hands is four years
and advocates the passage of a child la
Dor law. Mr.. Leath is fluent and in
teresting talker and the audience was
thoroughly with him during the evening.
