SPRUELL SCHOOL OPENS;
ADDRESS BY DR.. BELK
Splendid Educational Insti-
tuition For Training of
Boys

The Spruell Preparatory School for
Boys opened it's winter session Tuesday
morning with interesting exercises.
Rev. s. R. Belk of Atlanta delivered a
fine address and there were appropriate
talks by Hon. H. B Moss and Col. E.
P. Green.
Prof. Spruell is an educator of superb
equipment and is admirably fitted to
train boys and not only lay the founda-
tion for their careers in College but
their work in life. The attendance is
limited to thirty, twenty of whom must
be boarding students.
They must be at least fourteen years
of age. With the limited attendance,
making it possible to give individual
attention to the boys, they make pro-
gress not possible under other circum-
stances.
The school is located at the DR.. Ais
ston place on Dixie Avenue. The
grounds consist of six acres in a fine
grove. The school affords splendid ad-
vantages which the people OF Cobb
county and others parts of the state
should appreciate.

DIR. BROUGHTON GETS A HAIR CUT.

DR.. Len Broughton, pastor of the
Baptist Tabernacle in Atlanta, has had
his hair cut.
While travelling in a sleeping car a
"wad" of chewing gum, which bad been
left in berth, got mixed up with the
doctors enormous mass OF iron gray
locks, and the services of barber were
found to be absolutely necessary.
1t is said DIR. Broughton has worn
long hair on account of a promise made
to his mother when he was boy. Then,
too, it's pretty good "ad"-for it has
been easy to point out DR.. Broughton
in any crowd. Nobody else on earth
has ever looked like him.
1t is To be hoped the hair cut will not
have the same effect on Dr. Broughton
that certain other hair cut had on
Samson of old, but that he will con-
tinue for many years in full strength
and usefulness. No matter what may
be thought of his sensationalism,
Broughton has done a great practical
work in Atlanta work which will en-
dure long after he has passed away

IN MEMORIUM
OF Our Esteemed And Beloved Broth
err w. I. Waterman.
How slender is life's silver cord,
How soon It's broken here;
Each moment brings a parting word
And many falling tear.
The sadness of parting with this
beloved Brother is tempered by the
sweetness of his memories. A gentle
man, quiet and unassuming in his
manner, deliberate in action, an ex-
emplar OF the true principles of fra
ternity, he has erected to his memory
a monument of affection more lasting
than one built Of onyx and jasper and
pearls.
To those who knew him as a loving
husband and father, a dutiful son, an
affectionate brother, we extend our
sincere sympathy, and, with you, we
look for the light beyond the grave
and led by the words OF the poet, we
know
There s no death the twinkle of an eye
And we are clothed with immortality
moment, and from waiting have we passed
Into LIES inner chamber as guest
Ourselves the same in all that was before.
Save but the garments that our spirits wore.
Not dead To close the eyes-toyi eld the breath
To change the earth for Heaven-this Is not
death,
'Tis hut the transit from world of care
To one where Joy and pleasure all the air

There is no doubt but that the
Czarina has experienced a complete
nervous break down, ii
Czarina Ill. nothing more serious. 1t
is said that the constant
terror under which Russian royalty
drags out its existence has made her
the wreck of the strong, healthy Eng
lish girl she was at the time OF her
marriage. 1t is reported that three
attempts were made upon the life OF
Nicholas within twenty-four hours re-
Gently. This is certainly sufficient to
ruin the strongest nerves. What
pity it is that the Czarina seems to
have been dead to her God-given OPP
portunity to have strongly influenced
her husband on behalf Of his Cypress
ed subjects, and yet, to save intact
all the authority of the throne, she
is understood to have opposed even
the concessions he might have made.

get out of it to cling to the system

the Northern and Western States
rich, populous and powerful. 1t were
we'll if North Carolina and the other
Southern States were similarly in
debted to the great ocean carriers.
"Care should be taken that only the
more desirable immigrants enter this
country, but there is no good reason
for trebling the head tax. On the
contrary there are excellent reasons
for doing nothing Of the sort. .
AS to this, there has been and the
Telegraph of course knows, an al
most complete change in the charac-
ter Of the immigrants in the past ten
years, and a most unfavorable one.
And as between such settlers as
helped build up the North and West
there is no comparison with the mi
gratory peddling, or pauper labor
class.
What the immigrants bring or take
away in dollars and cents is not to be
considered where the character and
intent of those coming to our shores
is concerned, and the effect they have
upon our national life, our slum prob
lens, etc. It is more than likely that
the immigrant who brings money here
is Of less value as a !aborer or settler
than the one who comes with nothing
except a few rags tied up in a hand
kerchief, but it would he interesting
and helpful to determine just what
"fruits Of their labor" emigrants
leave here, and in whose custody. those
fruits remain? The home-going for
eigner is usually of the non-producing
class. He is trader, a middle man
in petty sense, the catch-penny mer-
chant Of the push-cart and street
stand. Does that sort Of "labor"
benefit anybody? 1t would be hard
to see what real good it does. And
as for those who really toll, the fruit
of their sweat-shop work, their slavery
in mill and mine goes to decrease the
wages of common labor and increase
the profits to the protected manu-
featuring class The laborer in
America completes with the pauper
labor of Europe, and when he buys
back for his home consumption
the products Of the very cotton mill
or mine in which he works, he pays
the enormous tax levied thereon by
the tariff, because there is no compe-
tition that the manufacturer has to
meet. 1t is a beautiful system all
around for the privileged class.

With the direct consent Of Great
Britain, Russian troops were last week
sent to the relief Of
AS to Persia. Teheran, whose belea-
guered inhabi n is
were on the verge Of starvation. Rus
sian influence is at the moment domi
mating Persia, and it is stated that
Russian money has financed the Shah
in his opposition to the Nationalist
uprising However, on May 9Th, he
signed and issued a proclamation
granting a constitution to Persia. The
document states that, since nothing
but a constitutional regime will re-
store order and promote the welfare
of the people, his majesty therefore
accords constitution.
An electoral law will shortly be
published when elections will be held
under the new constitution.
All of this looks like a victory for
the Nationalist, but it will be re-
called that similar rejoicings went
forth when the Russian Duma prom
ised so much for the people Of that
country. 1t has accomplished moth
ing. It's members have all been thor
oughly inundated and the Gar and
Russian bureaucracy are riding just
as rough shod over the people as
ever, and so long as Russian power is
behind the throne Of Persia, that
country may expect but the shadow
not the substance-of freedom.
