UNIVERSITY OPENS SEPT. II.

The one hundred and second session
of the University of Georgia begins
Sept. II. Judging from the large num-
Der of requests for catalogues and the
unprecedented demand for rooms in
the dormitories, there will be a ma
terial increase in the number of stu
dents enrolled. Although the attend
ance in the academic department last
year was larger than ever before, it
was the transitional year from the one
year TO the two years law course and
the loss in that department reduced
the total attendance to somewhat
smaller number than during the ses-
sion 10000. The law school this year
will have at least the normal enroll
ment if not more. as there will be some
twenty-five men in the second years
class and it is reasonable to suppose
that there will not be smaller num-
Der in the first years class than last
wear

FOR WORRYING ON SUNDAY.

James Findlay. a well-known prop
erty owner of Atlanta. and John Baker,
a negro carpenter appeared before Act
ing Recorder Warren to answer to the
charges of violating the law of the city
and state by working on Sunday. The
case was made at the request of a
neighbor who said Mr.. Findlay and
the negro had a set of tools and were
engaged in removing some window sash
from the place where he resides and
had also torn down some electric fix
lures that they evidently intended re-
placing. Both defendants pleaded ig-
norance of the law, and as only one
person had been disturbed by the noise
made in the work, the fine was placed
at S1.75 in each case and no state cases
were made.

A false cry of fire raised among
the girls employed in the American
Tobacco Co.'s cigar factory, Tenth
st. and Washington ave Philada.,
on Tuesday morning, caused a panic
that resulted in the death of eight
girls and the more or less serious
injury of thirty others. The dis
aster was caused by the screams of
girls who witnessed an accident to
a youth employed as a stock boy,
and who was struck on the head by
a descending elevator on the fourth
floor, where he was leaning over
rail of the elevator shaft. The 900
workers who were on the fourth
floor when the cry of fire was rails
ed, became panic stricken, and
made a mad rush for one of the
stairways. One of the fleeing girls
fell on the landing at the second
floor, others fell over her, and soon
those behind in their frantic efforts
to get away from imaginary flames
became tightly wedged, strug-
Cling mass on the stairway.

served all formality was laid aside, and to
the music of "a tar and a fiddle" the Vir-

YOUR FRIEND WHO SUCCEEDS.

You can remember that he never
amounted to much in his youth.
You always have grave doubts
whether he did it all himself, and IL
his success is as great as reported.
You sometimes find it hard to be as
pleased with his goodsortune as an old
friend should be.
When he appears to be glad to see
you, you cannot help being a little sur
prised.
When he does not appear to be over
Joyed at meeting you, it is recalled
that he always was that way-and
nothing to his credit.
1t is difficult to avoid speaking of his
poor old father and mother" when
his family is mentioned.
Altogether, it is hard thing to re-
gard his rise as an altogether credit
able performance or to reflect upon
its attendant circumstances without
the thought that there are some
things about them which you would
have done better.-lndianapolis News,

At least one of BaltiInore's dailies is
not pleased with the action of the First
Branch Of the City Council in voting to
sell the citv's interest i'll the Western
Maryland railroad to the parties known
as the Fuller syndicate, claiming that to
let it 60 at the bid offered means clear
loss of at least s., 100000. Should the
Second Branch approve of the sale the
amount the city will receive for its hold
ings is $S,75I,37o45. Qnite a tidy sum.
The World claims the Western Mary
land deal has been piece of political job
berry frou the day it began to the present
time and declares the action of the Coun.
Gil to be "about as disgraceful a case OF
bartering away the city's interests and
footing the city's treasury for political
purposes as ever characterized Baltimore
in the days when ring rule was rampant
and stencil in the nostrils of decent
people,"
