School Trustees of selma Esect am Ass sistant Principal to Take Charge of Work in His

Advertiser Bureau,

Advertiser Bureau,
 sre Selma, Sept. 23. The Board of Trustees of the Dallas Academy and the City School Board oi Selma. at a recent meeting, elected Miss Emily Ferguson, assistant principal of the Dallas Academy and the city schools. This action, upon the part of the Board of Trustees, was taken after they had refused to accept the resignation of Prof. R. E. Hardaway as principal his health being such that he did not feel disposed to resume his duties this year,
 Prof. Hardaway has been in bad health for sometime past. but 1t was hoped that after resting through the summer that he would be able to re- sume his duties as head of the Selma schools But upon returning to Selma a few weeks ago. he found that this had not been the ease and upon the ad- vice of his physician. he tendered his resignation and prepared to go to some quiet resort to spend the winter.
 The Board refused to accept his res- ignation but gave him leave of absence for 6 Year and elected Miss Ferguson to take charge of the schools during that period. The city schools wll open on next Monday and each grade of the different schools will enroll a full number of scholars. The same staff of teachers will have charge or the various grades of the school this year. that had charge of them during the past session.

 Hour after hour of deadly suspense passed on, however. and he did not come or make any sign. At five o'clock Marianne. who had fitted about all night like restless ghost, made me drink a cup of hot chocolate. and act- ually put me to bed. My last words to her were: What Is the use?

 My heart gave a spring at the news that there was a telegram, for thought it might be from Ivor, saying he was on the track of the treaty. even If he hadn't yet got hold of 1t. But the message was from Raoul; and he had not found the brocade bag. He did not put this in so many words. but said, T have not found what was lost, or learned anything of it.'

Governor Is Afraid
 Of Quotation Marks.

Governor Conner returned to the city yesterday morning and was at the Cap itol early. as is his custom He said that he enjoyed as pleasant trip as a man could who was up to his neck in business affairs.
 Prohibition, extra sessions. railroads. municipal code rUvisions, Birmingham Police Commission and child labor bill were not among the things that the Governor conyersed about. Questions on such matters were referred to the attaches in the office, who, however, did not have authority to speak for the Governor. But the Chief Executive was even more affable to the inquiring newspaper men than on his return to the Capitol ten days ago.
 The Governor does not like to be quoted on the most trivial subject with out seeing the interview written out before 1t goes into print. He is mor- tally afraid of quotation marks in the careless hands of the hurrying report CTS. Whenever he ventures a state ment his concluding sentence isiusual- ly.

It was just pos sible, as it was so late. and his way had led him through quiet streets. that even after all this time the little bro cade bag might be lying where he had left it---or that some honest policeman on his beat might have picked 1t up. Besides, there was the cab in which he had come part of the distance to my house. The bag might have fallen on the floor while he drove: and there were many honest cabmen in Paris, I reminded him, trying to be as cheerful as I could.

"CIevcrslity."

There is story that Charlotte Bronte when a girl of sixteen broke out angrily at some one who said she was always talking about clever peo pie, such as Johnson and Sheridan. "Now, you don't know the meaning of clever" she said. Sheridan might be clever-scamps often are-but Johnson hadn't spark of 'cleverality' in him. That remark really gives the essence of Johnson and the key to the great qualities of his work, for in his case even more than in most the prose was the man. Whoever wants "cleveral- ity" had best leave Johnson alone. The signal merit of Joh2son's writings is that he always means what he says and always says what he means. He may often have talked for victory, but except perhaps in the political pam phlets he always wrote for truth.-- London Times.

Fools Gold,

Pyrite, or sulphide of iron, occurs quite freely in the iron measures and granite gash veins in upper Michigan. It has a brassy color and is known as fools gold" by reason of its similari- ty to the yellow metal in the opinion of the inexperienced. The miners call it "mundic." Few people appreciate the great value of this mineral. Its principal use is in making sulphuric acid, and in that form it is consumed in very large quantities, much of it en- tering into the refining of kerosene oil as well as being used extensively in the manufacture of artificial fertilizers.
