The city fathers held two called
meetings yesterday. The first meeting
was held in the morning and was
called to consider the erection of a
frame building by Mrs. Jackson ON a
lot in the west half of block three.
Nathan Jaffa appeared before the
council and stated that he had sold
the lot to Mrs. Jackson. AS she had
desired to erect a frame building on
this lot and there was uncertainty
as to whether it was in the fire linn
it's or not, he had consulted the City
Engineer and had secured written per
mission from him to erect the build
son with that understanding. He had
also understood from the Mayor and
the City Attorney that the lot was
not in the fire limits.
The following report was then sub
mitted by the Fire Committee:
To Hon. w. Stockard, Mayor City
of Roswell:
Your Fire Committee deems it ad
visable at this time to respectfully
report that in view of the great dan
ger that would result from any change
in the present fire limits and restric-
tions relating thereto, that the pres
ent fire boundary be maintained in
the City of Roswell, and that all or
dinances relating to said fire limits
be as rigidly enforced in the future
as they have been in the past. We
take this view especially in consid-
Grafton of the dry condition of the
weather, and we feel that any change
or variation in the present fire boun-
Diary would result in the erection of
irao h,,i1d
ings thereby jeopardizing the busi-
ness section of the City. Yours very
respectfully,
A. L. WHITMAN, Cnmn.
r. D. BELL,
Fire Committee.
The City Attorney was instructed
to draw up an ordinance covering
this case, and the council adjourned
with the understanding that the mem
bers would meet in called session
last night. Those present were Messrs.
Bell, Church, johnson, Kinsinger,
Whiteman and Wyllys.
The same members were present
at the night session. An ordinance
was submitted by the City Attorney
removing from the fire limits tae
west half of blocks three and four,
Thulber's Addition. This passed by
the following vote, under suspension
of the rules: Yes, Messrs. Church.
JohL son, Kinsinger, Robinson and
Wyllys; No, Messrs. Bell and White
man. Mr.. Whiteman requested that
the east half of block six, Tnurber's
addition, be taken out of the fire linn
it's, and this was voted down.
Ordinance No. 102, an ordinance
making the payment of the saloon
and liquor license payable quarterly
instead of annually in advance was
passed under suspension
of the rules. The council then ad-
jourled.

UNIVERSITY TO
CHARGE FEES
STUDENTS IN MEDICAL, LAW AND
ENGINEERING DEPARTMENTS
MUST PAY TUITION.

MoRGANToWN. March 14.-Begin-
ming with the fall term next septem-
ber, all students except cadets, will
be required to pay tuition in the med
ical, law and engineering departments
OF the university. The yearly tut
ton in the medical and law depart
ments will be s25 for residents and
$50 for non.residents; and in the en-
gineering department 1t will be $50
for residents and $40 for non.residents.
An order to this effect was passed
Tuesday afternoon by the board of
regents after the question was fully
discussed.
It Is expected that the tuition fees
will amount to about $4,000 in the law
department, $1,000 in the medical de.
partment and $4,000 in the engineer.
ing department yearly, a total of
$4,000 added to the annual income.
This action was not taken by the re.
gents because Of the cuts in several
items of the appropriation bill, but
has been under consideration for two
years. When the board adjourned
last June a resolution, practically the
same as the order passed, was submit.
ted by Regent Williams, but was not
acted upon as there was not sufficient
time.
None Of the regents are of the
opinion that the tuition fees win low.

cheaper and more economical for the
