COUNTRY SCHOOLS ARE BAD.
Rural Parents Send or Bring Their
Children to the Cities.

Children to the Cities.
Considerable pressure is daily
brought to bear upon Supt. Ashmore
to secure admission to the public
schools for children who have been
brought into the city from the country
by their parents or guardians. The
superintendent has made it a rule to
admit those whose people have become
bona fide citizens and taxpayers of
the county, and to refuse admission
to the children of those who merely
come to the city to give their children
the advantages of the schools.
Supt. Ashmore said yesterday that
there is much dissatisfaction through
out the country with the manner in
which the country schools are con-
Quoted. Many people come to him
who say that it is impossible for them
to educate their children in the sections
of the country in which they live, and
that they have been compelled to
change their residence on this account
from a sense of duty to their offspring.
Better results could not be ex-
pected." said Mr.. Ashmore, when it
is realized that the average school
year in the county is not of more than
100 days, and that the average pay of
the teachers is only $122.9S per annum.
An ordinary farm laborer makes bet
ter wages. Under the circumstances a
teacher who is at once competent and
ambitious cannot be induced to stay
in the country and fritter away his or
her life. To add to the annoyances and
perplexities of the situation it fire.
Cuently happens that the pay of the
teachers is year in arrears.
state School Commissioner Glenn
has protested often and vigorously
against this condition Of affairs, but il
is not in his power nor in that of any
man or set of men, to remedy the evil.
a move in the right direction will be
made when the counties are required
to bear the burden of their own schools
and to raise their own taxes to defray
the cost of education"

you wait until spring. the chances are
any desirable lot will cost you $3.50 to
5000 more than it can be bought for
now; I have fine lot on the north
east corner of Henry and Price
street cheap; some beautiful lots cor
ner Eighth and Lincoln, and Sixth
streets between Bull and Drayton; if
you like the West Side I have three
splendid lots on Sixth, between Barn

ninth and Forieth streets; also good
lots on Fortieth, between Bull and

is NOT IMPRESSED
sUPT. ASHMoRE DOESN'T THINK
FIRE DRILLS NECESSARY.
ARE TOO MUCH TROUBLE.
DANGER OF FIRE IN SCHOOL IN
DAY TIME EXCEEDINGLY REMOTE.

Some Useful Purpose Might BE
Served, the Superintendent
Thinks, by Following Out the
Suggestion of Fire Chief Mcguire,
But the Resulting Good WOuid
Not COmpe nsate for Annoyance
and Loss of TiIne-BuiIdings Can
All be Emptied in Less Than
Three Minutes-Teachers Have In
structiOns-Fire Drills wouldn't
Help in Case of Panic.
Superintendent of Public instruction
Otis Ashmore is not particularly i'm
pressed by Fire Chief Maguires recon-
mendation for fire drills in the public
needed.
There is a certain amount of JUS
tice in what Mr.. Mcguire says" said
Supt. Ashmore yesterday, "and view
ing the matter from his standpoint 1
dare say he is right. However, his
point of view does not afford a glimpse
of the entire situation. While fire
drills might be more or less advantag-
eous to the children, and possibly serve
some useful purpose in time of fire, /
do not believe that any good they can
possibly do will counterbalance the dis
advantages and inconveniences they
would occasion.
I'm cities in whose schools the fire
drills are parts of the system they
degenerate rapidly into much of a spec
tacle. which is displayed for the en-
lightenment and entertainment of the
visiting educator or other man of
prominence. Every exhibition of this
character. every practice drill means
the children are taken away from their
work and rendered completely demoral-
ized for half an hour or more.
THE fire drills are not needed Each
teacher has instructions what to do in
the event Of a fire breaking out, be-
ing told to see 10 it that every pupil
in his or her charge gets out of the
room There is not a school building
in the city which cannot be emptied
in less than three minutes, and there
are several that can be completely
| cleared of their occupants in about half
of this time
Il have been teaching or otherwise
| interested in education practically all
of my life and therefore keenly alive
to everything connected directly or re-
motely with the subject During this
entire experience have never heard
or read of school building, used only
in the day time, being destroyed while
there were pupils in it. dare say that
| Mr. Mcguire VIII be equally unable to
call such an instance to his recoIlec-
| ton.
"Of course, there have been plenty
OF cases where boarding schools have
been destroyed, but I have yet to hear
OF an instance in which a public school
building has been burned in the day
| time. Under the circumstances, 1 con-
slider the danger too remote to make
necessary the trouble, annoyance and
loss of time to pupils and instructors
that the fire drills would cause.
There is just one conceivable situa-
tion in which it might be possible to
believe the fire drills would serve a de-
cidedly useful purpose: for myself, I do
not believe they would. This is in a
case of panic, and l don't think that
in such an event any amount of drills
| through which school children had
been put would prevent their losing
| their heads"

to the church and from the church TO
the Central depot.
At noon on Monday. Jan. 13, the
members of the bar will assemble in
the Superior Court room to- listen to
eulogies upon the late judge. When
the meeting Of yesterday morning ad-
journed it was to meet at that time.
The meeting of yesterday included
almost every prominent and active
member of the bar. Judge Thomas M.
Norwood of the City Court, presided.
Every seat within the court railing
was occupied and those outside the
railing were filled with members of the
bar and court officers of this and adja-
cent judicial circuits. So large a pro-
portion of the practicing members Of
the bar have not been assembled on
any occasion.
Mr.. S. b. Adams moved that the
members of the bar attend the funeral
of Judge Falligant, and there was not
dissenting voice. The members will
assemble at the residence at Sis
O'Clock and will march with the fun
eral cortege, that will leave the house
at $50 O'Clock for the church.
Next Monday week will be devoted
to paying tributes to the memory of
the motion of Mr.. George w. Owens
that this date was chosen. and Mr..
owens, Hon. W. G. Charlton, Hon. F.
G. duBignon, Mr.. Samuel b. Adams
and Hon. Pope Barrow were named as
the committee by which the resolutions
of respect and coincidence should be
prepared. Besides the resolutions it is
probable that a number of addresses
will be delivered.
On behalf of some of the lawyers and
himself Capt W. w. Mackall an
nounced that a handsome floral Offer
ing had been prepared and would be
sent to Augusta in the name of the
Bar Association of Sakannah.
1t was determined that no steps be
taken as to sending a delegation to
Augusta and this matter was left to
the members. II is probable, however,
that a considerable number of the
lawyers will go to Augusta and attend
the funeral ceremonies.

SOON READY FOR RECEPTION.
Changes in TeIfair Academy to BE
Completed About Feb. 4.


Within three weeks or thereabouts
lovers of fine pictures will have the
opportunity of seeing for the first time
'Parabola" or "The Bridge of Life"
the new picture recently purchased in
Europe by Mr.. Carl L. Brandt for the
Telfair Academy.
Since his return to Savannah, sew
eral weeks ago, Mr.. Brandt has been
busily engaged in rearranging the pic
lures of the academy to secure a space
in which this new acquisition might be
hung to the best advantage. While
this arrangement has not yet been
completed, much has been done and
Mr.. Brandt hopes to have it quite fin
ished by Feb. /, or at least an early
date in that month, and then a recep-
ton will be held in the academy and
the public be given an opportunity of
seeing the new picture.
Among some of the changes that
nave been made in rearranging the pic
lures of the academy has been the
rehanging of the four panels, painted
by Mr.. Brandt, studies of Apelles, TX
tinus, Praxiteles and Durer These
formerly occupied the four corners of
the hall of pictures, but are now placed
in the center of the walls and above
the line of the other pictures. The
corners, where are spaces designed for
similar panels, Mr.. Brandt hopes to
fill later with studies, painted in SINH
lar style, of Murillo. Titan, Leonardo
da Vinci and Velasquez.
Another change that has been made
and one that is a decided improve
ment, has been the framing of the
three great monochrome pictures that
hang on the south and the east walls.
These frames have been made under
the personal direction of Mr.. Brandt.

IN THE CITY MARKET.
Clerk MendeI Collected over $4,000
During Last Year.

Clerk MendeI Collected Over 10000
During Last Year.
Clerk of the Market MendeI will file
his annual report tomorrow, and will
report a successful year in the City
Market. A total of SIC, O,519.S1 was COL
lected by the clerk, and the figures will
be increased by about $4,000 received
by the city marshall and accounted for
in his report.
Several OF the butchers and fish deal
ers rent their places by the year, and
this money is paid to the city mar
shall. The basement is also rented by
the marshall and he makes the col
lections The amount collected by
Clerk Mendel is about 800 less than
that taken in during 1900, but this fact
is accounted for by a combination of
circumstances.
Christmas week was a dull one in
the market, because of the severe
weather, and on one day only 45 cents
was collected. On the day following
Christmas not a cent was taken in
from hucksters or others. This day
is always a dull one. The busiest
months were June and July, and about
$S75 was taken in each month.
In his report Mr.. Mendel calls atten-
tion to the fact that for sanitary and
other reasons a concrete floor should be
laid in the section of the market used
by the butchers. The work can be done
for about 81 800, and in the budget re-
Gently submitted an appropriation for
this purpose was asked for. 1t was re-
fused by Council, and Mr.. Mendel ex-
presses the hope that Council will be
able to have the work done during the
year. The floors would be so arranged
that they could be flushed without any
trouble. A few slight repairs to the
buildings are contemplated during the
year.
In his report Mr.. Mendel highly COM
mends Food Inspector We'll for the
work he did during the year. Mr.. WE'LL

R0BBER JUMPED INTO CANAL.
Surprised in House He Dropped
Piunder and Knocked Woman
Down.

A negro burglar plunged into the
Ogeechee Canal yesterday in an effort
to escape from a crowd close on his
heels, but was unsuccessful. At the
police station house the prisoner gave
the name of Joe Miller and had to be
given change of clothing.
Miller was arrested by several ne
groes and turned over to Mounted
Patrolman Meldrim. The man had
broken a window and robbed the house
of Kate White, No 1O6 Farm street.
There was no one in the house at the
time of the robbery, and Miller was
turning things upside down when a
woman in an adjoining house heard
the noise. She made an investigation,
and surprised the burglar while he
was at work.
The woman kGabbed Miller and
screamed for help, but the robber
knocked her down and ran in the di-
rection of the canal. He was fol-
lowed by several persons, whose at
tention had been attracted by the
screams of the woman. When the ca
nal bank was reached Miller jumped
into the water, which was shallow at
the time, but was followed by those
who had determined to catch him.
The cold water gave the burglar a
distinct shock, and he did not resist
when taken in charge. Miller will be
given a preliminary examination by
Recorder Myrick in Police Court.

VETERANS WILL ATTEND.
Judge FaIIigant's Comrades Will
Make the Trip to Augusta.

MAKE the IT'D 10 Augusta.
About forty members of the Con-
federate Veterans Association will ac-
company the remains of their late COM
mander to Augusta and be present
when they are committed to the earth.
A considerable number of members of
the association at the meeting yester-
day afternoon stated that they could
Ko.
The meeting was held at Confederate
Hall and was called to order by Capt
Louis G.. Young, first vice president of
the association. 1t was a special meet
ing to discuss the report of a commit
tee, that had been appointed to canvass
the members of the association and see
how many of them expressed a willing
ness to make the trip. AS a result of
this canvass and of the appeal made at
the meeting about twenty names were
added to the list made up at the meet
ing the night before.
The committee reported that rate
of S3.S5 for the round trip had been
secured from the Central Railway, and
that sleeper, that would accommodate
twenty-five. could be had from the
company for $25 for the trip. The
committee was instructed to charter
so may secure the added comfort.
The Augusta camp of United Con-
federate Veterans will join with their
Savannah comrades in paying tribute
TO the memory of Judge Falligant. The
Augusta camps commanding officers
were communicated with by telephone
and signifed their readiness to have
their camp form part of the funeral
escort. They will meet the funeral
train at the station and accompany the
remains to the grave.
The association has also made ar
rangements to have those OF its mem.
bers who accompany the remains OF
Judge Falligant TO Augusta taken from
the station to the Sand Hills. where
the cemetery is located, at which the
interment viii take place. The dis.
tance is about two miles and IL would
be too long a march for the veterans tc
make afoot.
