SCHOOL TRUSTEES.

With the opening Of the schools,
there comes to the fore the perennial
question Of the usefulness or USE
iessness Of the trustees Of the district
schools, the teachers being, as in for
mer years, the chief disputants.
Those opposed to the system which
now obtains, and they are not few,
make charges, which, If true, show
state of affairs demanding the at
tention Of the highest school author
tiles. 1t is asserted that there ARE
trustees Of both white and colored
schools who are governed in, their
selection of teachers not by their 1T
ness, as Is supposed to be the case,
but by their religious, faith, their
political belief, and none too infre-
quently, by family ties or the teach
er's willingness to board with B. spec
flied family. 1t is also charged that
there are instances, fortunately few
in, number, where applicants have re-
ceived the impression that their cause
would be forwarded by the judicious
outlay Of q small amount Of cash.
Many Of the trustees are charged
with ignorance of school matters
and, in, fact, Of many other things
essential to those holding such re-
sponsible positions.
These and some others are some
reasons advanced for the abolish
mont of the trustee board, and their
gravity and rendition enforce ncSfi-t
sideratiop. If they are found to be
true In the main, the importance Of {,
the schools to the development Of the
state demands that the school. laws
be SO. revised as to deprive the. tEus-
tees of the power to elect teachers.
II not to abolish the trustee boards
entirely. II

ROOSEVELT'S AFRICAN QUEST

ISOOSEVELT'S AFRICAN QUEST.
1t Is now generally known that
Ser1bner's Magazine is paying Theo-
dore Roosevelt the highest price
ever paid for any serial in any mag
azine for his forthcoming articles,
which are to. bear the general title.

OF the African Wanderings OF an

editors already have Ave Of these ar
ticles in manuscript, the first Of
which, "a Railroad Through the
Rleistocene," will appear in the Oc-
tober Scribner. They also have a
large amount OF illustrative mater
ial from Kermit Roosevelt, the Off
ctal photographer Of the expedition,
oil systematically arranged and
labeled, showing o marked aptitude
for the detail on the young mans
part.
Meantime the popular interest in
these articles is in itself q phenom-
enon that may well engage the at
tention even OF MI Roosevelt's en-
emtes, 1t is said that an enterpris-
ing concert In New York recently
dressed UP a lot Of men In Roose-
Veltian costume and put them
through an African lion hunt before
the moving picture camera and that
the receipts from the exhibit the
first week were $4,000. / under
stand that the news dealers orders
for the October Scribner are IS per
cent larger than usual, the increase
being about SO per cent in the east
and 100 per cent in the west.
But the surprising thing Is that
the interest on the other side Of the
Atlantic Is almost equally keen.
The. London Telegraph has bought
the serial use Of Mr. Roosevelt's ar
ticIes for q good round sum. The
leading publishers in Paris. Hach-

serial and book rights, and the same

UNCLE SANS NEGRO OFFICERS.

ApropOs Of the rumOred retirement
Of Chaplain William #. Anderson and
Major John R. Lynch, the following
historical tidbit from an exchange
will prove Of interest:
Uncle Sam has on his long pay
roll eight Negro. commissioned Off
GERS Of the army, three Of these be-
ing officers. while the others are

By the. Army Organization act Of
July %, 1868, there were designated

Tenth: regiments Of cavalry and the

ments Of infantry, and since their
formation these Negro regiments had
assigned to them Negro chaplains.
Probably the best known Of all the
Negro chaplains Is Allen Allensworth
Chaplain Allensworth has seen much
active duty, and his service with the
''Fighting Twentyfourth," which did
good work in Cuba, has been contin-
uous since his entry into the army
on April 1, 1886.
Next to him as to age and service
is |Theophilus G.. Steward, who was
EaDpointed on July 20, 1891, from the
District Of Columbia and assigned to
that other fighting infantry regiment,
the Brunette Twenty-ffth." His
service has also been continuous with
the. regiment to which ne was first
assigned .---
The present chaplain Of the Ninth
Cavalry Is George Washington PRO
leau a native Of South Carolina but

vice has been With the Ninth Cavalry,
now stationed at Jefferson Barracks,
Missouri He has fourteen years Of
service before him.
- The last. Of these chaplains Is Will,
liam T. Anderson, now with his regi-
ment, the Tenth Cavalry, which has
also seen service in Cuba and the
Philippines.
The last Of the Negro STAFF officers
Of the army Is John r. Lynch Of the
pay department, who entered the SER
vice in June, 1898, as an additional

A Fat Woman
Hates Society

Fat people have to get into clothes that
are designed for people of normal
physique. The men wear dress suits and
look like comic pictures. The women wear
necked dresses to their evident humilia-
ton. This is why it is often said that
fat woman hates society Fat is as
much the mistake of poor health as any
thing else. The things that make fat
should be making good blood. bone and
nerves. The secret is that the digestive
machinery is out of gear. The juices make
fat in too large quantities. The fat
impedes circulation. cramps the heart,
suppresses the liver, crowds the lungs and
intereferes with the stomach Marmola
Tablets are harmless They are taken
after each meal They help digest that
meal as nature intended it should be
digested. They remove the fat already
made at the rate of from Z to Is ounces
a day and they leave no flabby skin or
wrinkles They are sold wherever drugs
are sold, in the same category with
harmful patent fat reducers. They con-
tain Marmoia, Cascara Aromatic and Pep
