REQUESTED TO QUIZ.
Assistant State School Superintend
ent Resigns Her Position. y

Miss Belle Chamberlain has resigned
her position AS assistant state school
superintendent at the request of Miss
Scott, the state superintendent. Miss
Chamberlain is candidate for the
position now held by Miss Scott and
she and her supporters state that Miss
Scott, althoughnot candidate for re-
nomination, favors the nomination Of
another candidate, this causing friction
in the office and resulting in the request
for Miss Chamberlain's resignation.
Miss Scott when seen denied that
was the reason she asked her assistant
to resign. She said Miss Chamberlain
has become remiss in the performance
of her duties and she had, therefore, re-
quested her to leave the position. Miss
Chamberlain has held the position for
long time. She says she will now de-
vote considerable of her time to adj
vancement of her candidacy roise

ExHIBiTIoN THIS YEAR ~ RiGonm
AND BETTER THAN EVER.
Opening Day Brought Many EXHIBITS
60 the Groand-Crowd
as zig as Usual

The annual exhibition Of the Ii
wood Park association began t
morning under the moAt favorable and
encouraging conditions. the first day
being the best at the fair for several
years While the attendance was per-
haps no larger than on the opening
dav of previous years. it was fully up
to expectations
The day was chiefly devoted to|
completing the work Of placing the
exhibits. stands. shows, ETC., and
those interested found more to do in|
this line than for several years. 1t isl
conceded that the exhibits in all de-
partments this year will be much finer
and larger than ever before, which de-
montrates that the fair is growing in|
popularity from year to year.
The most noticeable increase this|
year Is it the live stock department.,
where the exhibition of horses, cattle.
sheep, swine, etc. i very fine, showI
ing the strides that Berkeley county,
farmers have made in this line. One|
exhibitor alone shows l25 sheep.
The poultry department is also more
complete than ever before and some
beautiful specimens Of the fancier'a
skill are shown. AS usual. Thursday
will be the big day, and special trains
will be run from tie grounds at Il
late hour to accommodate the crowd.

PLANS ARE CHANGED.
Baltimore & Ohio Won't Use Union
Station Until Spring.

Baltimore q ONO Won use UNION
Station Until Spring.
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad
will not attempt to run it's trains into
the new union station at Washington
next month, as was originally planned.
An announcement to this effect has
been made and it was stated that the
work on the depot is not far enough
advanced to permit the handling of
large crowds there. and in conse-
quence trains will not be run into it
until next spring. In planning to use
the station next month. even though
it was known the place would not be
completed, the idea was to allow the
contractor to do some filing up on the
property now used by the Baltimore
and Ohio in Washington. However,
this will be delayed until the COM
pany can run its trains into the new
depot.

says
State Tax Commissioner Dillon has
stirred mp hornets nests in the New
River coal field. He went up to
Fayette county, and calling the two
county assessors before him, demanded
that they raise the assessments of the
coal leaseholds to an amount aggregst-
ing s., 600, 600 The highest amount
named by him was for the New River
Smokeless Co., whose lease he placed
at $500. 900 valuation.
The Rand Co. and the White Oak
Fuel Co came next, with valuation
of $500, COO excess, aud then followed
others at 800, 900, and on down to val
nations much smaller.
The assessors say they have fixed the
valuations at what they consider fair
amounts, and will not change them at
this order OF the tax commissioner
Mr.. Dillon who returned 70 Char
lesion on Thursday, says if the as
sesors refuse TO place proper valuation
on the properties he will appeal to
the county court to have the assessors
removed from office. Mr.. Dillon has
