Mrs. Rufus Jones entertained at the
home of Mrs. w. L. Simpson on Stone
wall street Thursday night in honor
of ner guests, Misses Bessie Chappell
of Bronwood, Willie Harper of Chick
asawhatchee and Eloise Cornelius OF
Cedartown. The extremely inclement
weather prevented a very large crowd
from being in attendance, but those
who braved the elements were reward
ed with several hours of unalloyed en-
ioyment. The charming young hostess
and her guests of honor left nothing
undone in their efforts, and as re-
suit all of the invited guests came
away with the conviction that they
had attended no more successful social
occasion in Dawson. Music and the
game of telegraph" provided the two
most popular forms of amusement, and
at late hour delicious refreshments
were served.

THE COUNTY SCHOOL CENSUS
the ENUMERATORS WILL BEGIN WORK
NEXT MONDAY.
1t Is Expected That the Names Of 5000
Children Will Be Taken. The
Questions to Be Asked.

Work will be begun next Monday,
june 10, of taking the school census of
Terrell county. Eight enumerators
will be engaged in the work, one for
each district, and it is expected that
the census will be completed and COM
piled within ten days, or by June Is.
The enumerators who have been
named by the county school board to
gather the statistics are: Mr.. A. L.
McLendon, Third district; Mr.. G. B.
Fillingame, Fourth district; Mr.. Carl
Aven, Parrott district; Mr.. P. w.
Bridges, Bronwood district; Mr.. Oliver
RUSSELL, Twelfth district; Messrs. T. J.
Slade and Dan Sem, Old and New
Eleventh districts; Mr.. Bolton Jen-
nings, Town district. These enumer-
ators are already prepared to begin
the work, and when Monday comes
they will Immediately undertake the
matter in hand.
1t is expected that the census will
number something more than FIVE
thousand children of school age. That
of 1898 showed that there were in Ter
rell county, outside of the town of
Dawson, 4,876 children between the
ages of six and eighteen, of whom ], 400
were white and 3,476 colored. This
was gain over the census of 1893 of
$50, and a proportionate increase will
put the number this year at considera-
bly, over 5000.
The census OF 1898 gave the number
of school houses in the county as "a,
25 white and 20 colored. The present
census will show several additional
school buildings.
Commissioner Wilkinson believes
that the STATISTICS this year will evil
dence the fact that illiteracy is on the
decrease in the county. In 1898 there
were 1,211 children of school age who
could neither read nor write OF this
number IS were white and l, 14O color
ed. A considerably smaller number
will doubtless be shown in this respect
by the approaching cens1s.
The following questions will be ask
ed by the enumerators: Age? Sex?
Over ten years OF age and can read but
not write? Over ten years OF age and
can neither read nor write? Over ten
wears of age and have never attended
school? Attended school more than
FIVE months in 1902? Blind? Deaf?
Dumb?

DO NOT WANT 1T MOVED.

SAWHATCHEE ASK FOR INJUNCTION.
MethOdists Of the Village viii Make Legal
Fight to Prevent Sale Of Church
Property in That Place.

The Methodists of Chickasawh atchet
don't want their church moved. II
fact, they are so strongly opposed tC
the idea that they have filed bill o.
injunction asking the court to restrain
the sale of their house of worship, and
they maintain that they will exert ev.
cry effort to keep the church at its
present place and prevent it's being
moved to Sasser, as has been proposed
AS was stated in The News a short
time ago, the district conference au-
thOrized the removal of the Chicka-
sawhatchee church from that village
to Sasser, and appointed Messrs. G. L.
Massey, p. w. Bridges and w. G.
Aven committee to sell the property
with the view of building the church
at Sasser and moving the place of
membership there. Now the Chicka-
sawhatchee congregation claim in a
document that has been filed in court
that it is not the wish of the members
to have the church moved.
The trustees, Messrs. B. p. Collier,
J. J. Stevens and S. H. Roby, have &C
cordingly filed bill of injunction
through their attorney, M. C.;Edwards,
askingthe court to prevent the sale.
The case has not yet been set for
hearing, but it is expected that Judge
Shetfieldwill get TO it in few days.
The Chickasawhatchee community
is considerably wrought up oyer the
affair, and the citizens there claim
that it is not the wish of anyone who
is member of the church to have its
location changed. The removal would
leave the village without a place of
worship and this, they say, they are
unwilling to consent to. They further
claim in their petition for injunction
that if the church were sold it
would be attempted to be bought by
negroes and converted into a lodge
room for secret order, and there are
some who say If it's sale is not restrain
ed they will bid it in and turn it oTer
to the use OF all protestant denomina-
tions.
The village is very much excited
over the affair, and the outcome of the
case will be eagerly awaited by many.
