Athletic Association.

A movement is being made tC
organize an athletic association
in this city by young men who
are known to possess the ability
to carry such an enterprise
through, and they should receive
the support and encouragement
of every man who desires to see
the young Of the city developed
mentally. morally and physically.
1t is the intention Of the men
at the head of the movement to
equip a complete gymnasium
hall, with baths. a bowling alley,
horizontal bars. trapeeze, tumb-
ling mats. and all the necessaries
for a first class gymnasium
The successful organization of
such a club would mean much
not only to the youth Of the city
but 10 the business man as well,
who tired from a days contine-
ment in his office could find rec
reation in the gymnasium hall.

Street Railway To Be Discussed.

No little interest is manifested
in the meeting of the Council this
evening when propositions from
a numb Der of companies interest
ed in furnishing Columbus with
street transportatio will be re-
ceived and discussed. Since the
last meeting of the council a num-
Der of communication have been
received from different sources
asking for a hearing before the
council They have been notified
to be on hand to- morrow evening
when their propositions will be
heard and discussed.
Since the addition of so many
new industries and the certainty
that large addition will be made
to the population of the city the
question of street railways has
been discussed at some length.
1t is quite evident that others
are favorably impressed with the
prospects for a good investment
in this line from the number of
inquiries that have come to the
officers of the city in the past few
months. The members of the
council are men who realize the
necessity, the great convenience
and improvement generally that
a street railway would bring, yet
they are also men who have the
good of the city at heart and will
not enter into a contract with
any com pany before first consid-
ering the matter fully and in
every light.

Monument Unveiled.

On last Sunday afternoon Cal
edonia Camp, Woodman Of the
World, unveiled the monument
erected at the grave of the late
r. w. Cain.
The monument is a very hand
some one and reflects credit on
an order that permits none Of its
members to slumber in an uu-
marked grave. The large assem-
bly, present attest the high es-
TEEN in which the late Sovereign
and his family are held by the
community and also the popular
ity of the fraternity in that sec
ton. The ceremonies. which
were simple and impressive,
were we'll carried ont by the Of
ficers of the camp. The poem.
oh, Why Should the Spirit OF
Mortal be Proud, was beauti-
fully recited by Miss Siddie
Lawrence. A quartette fur
nished excellent music. Mr.. o.
NJ. Lawrence and Sovereign Es-
cort Simrall each delivered ap-
propriate addresses which re-
ceived marked attention and will
result IN much good for Wood
craft.

has occurred in years and one
that has caused wave of sorrow
and deep regret to sweep over
the city generally is the death O
Miss Mary Bailey Walker. oi
this city, and the circumstances

ful accident of which she was a
victim Sunday morning and the

best physicians were secured

FL. S. Walker. was at once mott
fed of the sad accident and ac-
com panied by DR.. John e. Davis,
of this city, hurried to his
daughter bedside. All hope
of saving the young lady's life
had been given up. however, and
he but reached Monteagle IN
time to be present at her death,
which occurred Monday after
noon at $50 o'clock,
The death of this young wo-
man is particularly sad, occur
ring as it did just as life with all
it's beauty and promise was
opening to her. She was a stu
dent of the Industrial Institute
and College the past session and,
as student, made an enviable
record, and being of a bright
and generous disposition won
the friendship OF ali with whom
she came in contact.
The funeral occurs this morn

PATCH is joined by numberless

themselves proficient in the sew
eral branches of kindergarten

During the month over a hun
dred teachers from different
parts of the State have been
registered at the College, and
the closing of the Institute will
be d source of regret to the city

connection with the Normal is
the conspicuous absence of men
from among the number of teach
ers in attendance, there being
but one man to complete the
course of instruction.
Mr.. Grey, an employee of the
Southern Railway was seriously
injured the past week while
working with a construction
