prone Court Of the District as a
member Of the Board Of Education
for three years, succeeding DR.. Oil
yer M. Atwood, who retires because
OF continued ill-health. Mr.. Horner
Is a native Of Warrenton, Va, and
located here several years ago to
practice law, in which work he has
been, very Successful. He was edu-
Gated in the schools of Virginia, and
taught for ten years prior to his ad-
mission to the bar Of his native state
in 1898. Mr.. Horner has had con-
siderable experience in politics, serv-
ing as delegate to the Republican
National Conception at philadelphia,
in 1900, being elected from the 8th
Virginia district, and served in the
convention on the committee on
rules and order Of business. He WAS
at one time very favorably consid-
cred IN connection with the Liberian
mission, and-could have been nom41
mated for Congress in the district
once represented by the late John
M Langston. Mr.. Horner is we'll
liked in Washington, though his So
Journ has been comparatively brief.
and 1T Is believed that he will contri-
butte to the councils of the school
board an experience as a teacher and
d1soiplinarian that will be Of fnestt-
mable value. The fact that he was
the attorney for Miss Mary E. Nalle.
dismissed teacher who has been
making fight for reinstatement has
been brought forward, but it will In
no wise affect the judgment Of Mr..
Horner should the matter ever again
occupy the attention Of the Board
as his relation to the case was purely
+ a business transaction, into which
his opinion did not enter in any
manner to bias his present function
as an officer Of the people.
Of the other colored members of
the Board, Mrs. Mary Church Ter
rell has one more year Of a two
year term to serve and John F.. Cook
has two years more Of a three year
term to serve. An effort is being
made to GUST Miss Lucy e. Moten
from her position as principal of
Normal School No. 2, and the con-
troversy promises to be long and

. The Henley, Royal Regstta had its annual
meeting recently in the Town Hall at Henley
and one of the questions which caused me
longest discussion was whether the Belgians
ought TO be allowed 10 defend the Grand
Challenge cup this year. No exception was
taken to the stand assumed by the stewards
last May hat the Belgians or any other
foreigners will not. be allOwed TO row. The
adverse criticism which the refusal of the
Belgians created was mentioned and it was
resolved that II. Il. Steward. the chairman
OF the committee OF management, should
embOdy& views OF the stewards In a public
statement.
Prior TO the meeting there was a sort Of
popular demand that Che regatta days should
be changed: that IL, the fnal day to be on
a Saturday. IL has always been the custom
for the regatta to close Friday and there was
no departure from the old rules this time
and II the entries are heavy there will be
fourth day: that il. the racing will begin on
June 20.
