HUNDREDS CROWD
REGISTER DESK.
Children Seek Admission To
Schools.
LARGE NUMBER NOW ENROLLED
Supt. Mathis is Busy Issuing Cards of
Admission to City Schools Which
Open Monday-Book Rental Fee is
Collected as Well.

Supt J. E. Mathis, of the Am CIRCUS
public schools, was busily engaged
yesterday registering pupils and issu-
ing cards of admission to the schools,
which open Monday. Yesterday was
by far the busiest day at the superin-
tendent's office since the books opened.
Already nearly three hundred pupils
have registered for school and received
admission cards.
Of this number probably $50 have
registered at Furlow and Rees Park
schools, while the registration at Nc
Kay Hill school is fully 1875, if it does
Tot exceed that number.
Supt. Mathis thinks the registration
would have been much heavier this
week but for the torrentIal rains Mon
day aud Tuesday, rendering it impossi-
BILE for the children to reach the
schools. But with the return of sun
shine yesterday they came trooplng.
In every instance the book rental fee
has been paid in advance and no trou-
bic whatever from that source is appre-
hended.
Inasmuch as the Gordy mandamus
proceeding will not be heard by Judge
LittIe1ohn until some time next Mon
day the effect, whatever the decision,
will not be felt until the public schools
have resumed and pupils are busy at
their books.
In the meantime scores of pupils are
registering, aud will continue to reg
lister under the regulations of the
Board of Education.

PLEASED WITH HIS PURCHASE.
How Vinegar Was Transformed In a
Night

A lucky Americas man is we'll fixed
to ward off grip and other graveyard
promoters for whole year and at lit
tie cost. He went to the recent old
boss sale and bought for trifing sum
barrel of vinegar. It was branded
vinegar, and was sold and bought as
such, But imagine the joy of the pur-
chaser yesterday when, in putting
some of this vinegar upon his col.
lards at dinner he found it Something
better" 1t is supposed that the bar
rel was shipped here during prohibit
ton days, when barrels of liquor were
rushed in as vinegar, syrup, oil and in
various other DISCUSSES to dodge the
spoilers. But then the fault is not
his, and there is no kick coming.
