Spotsylvania Co, Va, Feb II, 1901
Mr.. j. G. Segar. of Lewiston. has a
number of ground hogs, VIII make their
home under "a large hay hOuse on one oi
his farms. Mr. Segar SAYS you can see
the ground hogs on any clear, warm day
during the winter They stay under the
hay house all the year. They come out
To eat daily in good weather This
settles the ground hog question a. 10 his
,eing his shadow GA the I'd OF February.
A statement has been published that
the Board Of Supervisors had said that
if there was one mile OF macadam road
built for 81 900 that would last . years,
they woul be- willing To build number
of mi Is o macadam rOad IN thiscnunty.
When Dc. G.. r. Massey, the chairman ot
the Board. was asked about this state
ment. and tie other two members,
Nessrs ". l.. Waite and l. q Maddox.
all three denied that any such PROPOSE
ton had been made tO them. or that

A lady who has been visiting up North

CONCERNING WOMEN

There are four women who ought to
be brought TO public notice while they
are still in active life, says The Delinea-
tor. One is the mother OF the DR.. Oser
who, already celebrated physician. be-
came famous by reason OF being credited
with the statement that man does not
grow in power after forty and that his
usefulness ceases at sixty. Mrs. Oslsr
has Just celebrated her one-hundredth
birthday. She has reared four very
distinguished sons aud one daughter,
has twenty-six grandchildren and one
0reat-grandchid and is still leading
useful and comparatively active life.
Another is Mrs. Mary +. Farrell, who
has Just ended her One-hundred-and-
third year. She has reared eleven
children, has fifteen grandchildren and
twelve great at-grandchildren She has
never been i'll day in her life, is still a
daily worker about the house, active in
body and witty in mind. A third Is
Mrs. Susan Askey, who on her one
hundred birthday went to
church in an automobile, made an ad
dress 10 the audience, and held a recep-
ton in the evening She also has borne
eleven children. The fourth is Mrs
Franklin Cottle, who at ninety-eight
years OF age went through thrilling eH-
periences at the late San Francisco
disaster, arrived fresh and strong in
New York week or two later, and now,
as erect as at twenty and as alert as at
sixty, she is about TO start on a two
hundred mile automobile ride from New
York to Boston.-The Delineator for

President Assured San Francisco Off
eials II Measure Is Not Passed at
This Session Of Congress An Extra
Session viii Be Called,
Washington. Feb l6.-The San Fran
cisco school controversy, growing out
OF the segregation Of the japanese
school children In that city has been
settled. The basis Of the agreement
reached al the White House confer
ence Is that Mayor Schmitz and the
members of the schOl board will, imme-
diately after the passage OF the immi-
grafton bill as reported by the con-
ferees in congress. abolish the Oriental
schools and again admit japanese chill
dren into the white schools. The presi-
dent and Secretary Root gave the San
Franciscans assurance that if the bill
is not passed at this session OF con-
gress an extra session will be called
Immediately after the adjournment on
March 4.
The adjustment Of the Oriental
schools applies. Of course, only TO the
use OF them by the Japanese. Their
maintenance for the Chinese will be
continued.
Mayor Schmitz gave out the follow
ing signed statement:
We have come TO satisfactory I'M
derstanding upon the assumption that
congress will pass the amendment to
the immigration bill introduced Feb
ruary 49, Until the amendment is en-
acted into a law. We shall make no
statement as 10 what the understand
ing is."
Mayor Schmitz received the answer
Of the japanese government to his
proposition for seperate schools from
Secretary Root. and after comforting
with the members of the school board.
he again called at the state depart
ment and informed Secretary Root
that the school board had finally reach
ed an agreement to rescind its order es-
tablishng Oriental schools, but no
action would be taken in this connec-
tion until the immigration bill, in
cluding the exclusion amendment, had
been passed by congress and signed by
the president. They submitted this
agreement 10 Secretary Root In writ
ing.
An agreement was reached in the
senate to vote on the conference re-
port Of the immigration bill today
Saturday and the Republican sena-
tors who are in charge of the measure
declare that the bill will undoubtedly
be passed. No serious opposition when
the measure reaches the house OF rep
resentatives is anticipated.
