ADAMS SCHOOL REOPENED
Teachers Greet Parents in the Big Re-
modelled Building.

Several hundred Southsiders last
evening visited the Adams school which
has been remodeled into one of the
most modern and conveniently ar
ranged school buildings in the city.
There. is probably no school building in
the city, now that the original Wash
ington school has disappeared, which is
so affectionately remembered as the old
Adams. 49,. -. ...s
Starting in 1874, thirty years ago, as
an eight-room school building, away
out on the South Minneapolis prairies,
it has by successive additions grown
into a great composite of 20 school
/ 400 pupils. The last rebuilding gave
the school six additional rooms and ac-
commodations for nearly 300 more chill
dren. Thus the Adams is the largest
grade school in the city and second only
to the Central highschool in point of
attendance. So pleased have been the
| teachers at the school and the parents
in the district over the greatly-im
proved conditions at the school that
! ebration was held last evening. -.
| The teachers in gala attire presided
4 over their respective rooms, receiving
| parents and general visitors with
charming cordiality: Little attempt
was made at decoration, but the. diff
ferent rooms were hung with drawings
and other specimens Of the children s
handiwork, and these naturally proved
more attractive to the parents than any
characterization would have been. D

Metropolitan-Kyrle Bellew in "Raf-
fles.''
Kyrle Bellew, with the fascinating
study in criminology, 'Raffles, the
Amateur Cracksman,' comes to the
Metropolitan Thursday evening for
three nights and matinee. Mr. Bellew
has company strong in every particu-
lar. Of prominence next to Mr.. Bellew
is E. M. Holland, himself star of the
first magnitude. Mr.. Holland is still
playing his splendid part of Captain
Bedford, the detective, which he acted
during the 200 nights run of "Raf-
fes in New York last season. For
Mr.. Holland to "support another star
is a great concession, for it gives play
goers the unusual chance to see two
such finished and powerful artists as he
and Mr.. Bellew on the same stage. Cap
tain Bedford, the part Mr.. Holland
acts, is really none other than his most
famous role, Captain Redwood, the de-
tective, in Jim, the Penman.' When

ris, a negro desperate from whom the
officers expected serious trouble, was
arrested by Deputy Sheriff Woodward
and Constable Mathis, near Glenmore,
in this county, last night, charged
with stealing a pistol from the Allan
tic Coast Line depot at Glenmore. He
knew that a warrant had been sworn
out against him, and had made several
threats as to what would happen
should the officers attempt to arrest
him. Last night the officers slipped
up on him and covered him with their
pistols before he could get his own
weapon. He was lodged in Jail here
this morning.
Owing to the many recent attempts
at burglary in this city. Mr.. Scott
Beaton has purchased a trio of regis
tered English bloodhounds to be used
in detecting the burglars.

ORDER OF POLICE CHIEF.

Resists in the COurts an order to
Leave Macon.
Macon, Aug. 1s.-What will probably
be another Henry Jemison case had
it's inception this afternoon before
Judge FELTON, in the Superior Court,
when that official granted temporary
injunction against the Mayor and
Council Of the city, preventing Chief
Murphy from running Matte Jackson,
a negro woman, out Of town on five
days notice.
There is an ordinance on the city
law books giving the chief of police
power to do this when he considers
any person Objectionable, and last
Monday Chief Murphy gave such orders
to the negro woman. Through her
attorneys, Glawson & Fowler, she
claims that the ordinance is in viola
ton of the federal constitution, as it
does not give the accused a hearing,
and that the action is without due
process of law and against the Four
teenth Amendment of the Constitution.
In case Judge FELTON, refuses to make
the injunction permanent, the case
will be taken to the Supreme Court
and then to the United States Court.
For some time there have been general
complaints against the ordinance, but
this is the first time a fight has been
made against it, and the indications
are that it Will be a fight to the finish,
as the woman is said to possess con-
siderable property
