GENERAL EVANS
NOT To RESIGN
DENIES THAT HE INTENDS TO
j LEAVE BOARD OF PRISON
Ig COMMISSIONERS.

ATLANTA, Oct. 22.-General Glenn
ent A. Evans, head of the Confederate
Veterans of the state, gives absolute
denial to the lumor published in an
Atlanta afternoon newspaper TO the
effect that he may resign from the
prison commission during the next
few days. The printed statement was
to the effect that the resignation was
considered because of the recent in
Yestigation of the affairs of the com
mission and pressure brought to bear
on the general by his brother veterans
of the confederacy.
! "Some young gentleman with more
Imagination than sound judgment or
good sense. said the general, in dis
cussing the published rumor, have
taken this means to embarrass me if
possible before the old veterans who
have decided not to notice their filings.
On the stand before the legislative
investigating committee ! urged that
If any blame attached to the members
of the prison commission | was as
culpable as any. Everybody knows
the result of that investigation and the
action of the legislature at the recent
extra session. Instead of being urged
to resign by confederate veterans,
have received numerous letters COM
mending me for my course and ex-
pressing the hope that will continue
to serve.
4 say | have no intention of re-
signing, regard my place on the
prison commission to which place
have been twice elected, as one of
great importance to the convicts and
the state. | would certainly not de-
sert the commission at this stage
when an important law is to be put
into execution"

President of the class, g, Marshall
Townsend, made q brief and well
chosen address Of welcome, and then
introduced the class historian, Robert
Prettyman, who did not attempt any
ponderous treatment OF bis subject, but
rather in a Fictitious manner told Of
the aspirations, and vicisitude Of the
class The class poem by Miss Hensie
Vibbert was excellent, and disclosed
the natural wit Of this honor student
in the hits which were well received ;
the beauty Of It all, was the fact that it
was delivered extemporsneOusly and

transferred TO Miss Helen Tatman, as
the representatives Of the Junior Class,
in a pleasing address, and Miss Tat
man made a very clever response.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, az they cannot reach

Is infiamed you have rumbling sound or

WE this week introduce to our
readers a new feature, THE Home
Circle Column. We are undecided
whether or not to make this a reg
ular feature in our paper. This
paper is issued for the pleasure and
usefulness of our subscribers, and
not for our own qualification, and
as fat as possible we desire to give
our subscribers the kind of reading
they desire. It occurred to us that
: a column each week of the nature
of the same appearing in this issue
might prove interesting to our read
ers in general and the mothers, the
queens of our home, in particular.
Now, readers, it is up to you. If
YOU would enjoy such a column
each week just drop us postal
acard or in any manner that suits
your convenience let US know your
verdict. We believe such a de-
partment would not only prove in
teresting but that its moral tone
would be such as to make an i'm
pression for good in the community.
We are willing to do the extra
work necessary if convinced our
readers would appreciate the same.
We hope you will at once; in some
manner communicate to us your de-
sire in the matter. We are here to
please you.
