Of the college over to Rev Mr. Dickey.
The business matters are being ar

new president will be entirely in
charge within the next few days
DR. c. e. bowman, who leaves EN-
Dry after four years as president, is
we'll known throughout the state I'm
der his presidency the college mas
prospered. the curriculum has been
raised in almost every department and
a new building added to the college.
In his relations with the students it
is doubtful if any president of Emory
has been so universally beloved
by the entire student body It is with
regret that the students surrender him
to enter another field of labor. He
goes to fill the position Of presiding
elder Of the Atlanta district, being re-
Gently appointed by Bishop Gambler
to fill the vacancy caused by the elec-
ton of r J. Bignam, Of e&eNseta, as
senior book agent OF the Methodist
Episcopal church, south.
Rev Mr. Dickey will move mis- fam
lily here within the next two weeks.
He is an old resident of Oxford, hay-
ing lived here while serving as pro
fessor of alumni chair, history and po-
litical economy AS a pulpit orator
he has few equals and is strong, con
servative man. The college will no,

A WILD STEER MAKES
THINGS VERY LIVELY
WITH -FOUR COMPANIONS HE|
PLuNGES OVERHEARD.
FIGHTS REScUEsRs.

Considerable commotion was caus-
ed on the river front Just opposite
Coney g. Parker's wharves last night.
A car of stock was being unloaded
for shipment to John Curry at st. Si,
mon. Four of them refused point
blank to go aboard the lighter, and
finally jumped into the river. Three
of them succeeded in swimming
ashore on the other side of the river,
but the fourth, a large steer, made up
his mind to board one Of the vessels
at the dock. and swimming along side
began the most prodigious system Of
believing imaginable One of the
sailors and a crowd of Bystanders
proceeded to nelp the unfortunate bo-
vine to terra flrma once more, which
they finally did, and as soon as he
was safely on the wharf he began to
take charge of tie situation and pret-
ty soon was raging like storm. The
men all left the scene to keep from
being gored to death, ana at last ac-
counts the steer was still lord of all
he surveyed anu the police department
had been advised to come down and
take Charge of him.

while Mr.. Dyer left for Waycross
yEsterdayl morning, and will enter

large number of employees of the Shops
were down 80 the tsaia yesterday
to see their old chief off, and they
were deeply grieved that it became
necessary to say goodbye to him. In
this connection Mr. Dyer has been a
resident of this city for many years
and has a large circle Of friends in

the olu rumor that the shops of the

TO improve condition that. left in
is present state, would be a menace
to general health. not alone of the ptl-
pills housed day by day in said build
ing, but of the entire neighbornood.
We most heartily commend the
board of education for this particular
mos ement, and in all other interests
they have heretofore undertaken and
are still undertaking in the direction
of improving public schools and pub
tic school buildings.
Public Roads.
Upon investigation we find the
roads through the county to be in ex-
cellent condition, except at the six
mile crossing, which needs repaids
badly. The Evelyn bridge is also in
need of repairs; also tne bridge on
the Darien road south Of the old con-
yict camp
We believe that good public roads is
the highest evidence of civilization
and that nothing is more calculated
to enhance the land values of our
country than a good system of pub
lie roads, and we most heartily com
mend the work done in the past and
urge our county commissioners to re-
new their efforts to secure better
roads, and in this connection we rec
ommend to our representatives and
senator that they endeavor to secure
the passage of an act providing for
state survey of all the public roads
in our commonwealth, for the es
taoblishment of proper grades with a
view to permanent work, and to have
the convict laws of the state so
amended that )the entire convict
force of the state shall be employed
on the public roads until all the roads
Of the state are in first-class order
and condition. We think this should
be done without expense to the state
by charging the different counties
witn the expense of the convicts as
.hey are worked in said counties.
Such a law would accomplish a
three-foid purpose: not only secure
good roads for the state, but avoid
competition with free labor, and save
the disgrace to civilization in our
present method of farming out the
criminals under system which at
best is barbarous.

German. The Citizens Bank
was made the depository for the
funds of the association.
The objects Of the association
are to promote the building of
homes IN the town of Jennings
by assisting those who have the
desire and have not sufficient
money, to own a home and pay
for it in small weekly payments
which would be less than rent.
For instance, one may possess q
1000 home and pay for it at the
rate of 50. so per week. This
plan will be ii great help to the
person in moderate circumst tan
ces, and will be taken advantage
of by many of our citizens.
There is no doubt but that it
will be Il great factor in the fut-
ure building Of the city Of Jen-
nings.
