THIRD DISTRICT
SCHOOL To Open
ON AUGUST 50
ATTENDANCE LARGEST EVER
Many New Students Coming
In From Every Section

Third District Agricultural and Me-
chanical School will open Wednesday
August 80. However, students will
begin to arrive on Tuesday, 29th.
The prospect for a record breaking
opening has not at any time in the
history of the school, been better. For
last three months applications have
been coming in from all over the
the country, and now just before the
school opens, rush is on for places
in the school.
From Saturday night until Mon
day night the following applications
have been received and accepted:
Misses Virginia Jenkins and Annie
Lou Crawford, Atlanta; John Tom
bley, Vienna; Albert L., and Simon
E. Musselwhite, COrdele; Henry
Wright, Cordele; Hermon House.
Lumpkin; James NJ. Tharpe, Thomp-
son, Ala; J. S. Bagan, Gresston;
Floyd Scarborough, Finleyson; NJ. H.
Gammage, Pineview; Prim Smith,
Smithville.
During the same time more inqui-
ries were made about the chances for
entering at this time, than appLica-
tions. Many of these will make ap-
picatiOn and enter when the schOu!
opens.
The school will in no way suffer on
account of attendance, for before
the actual work begins on the 4th o.
September numbers will have to be
turned away, yet many others would
apply but for the reason that the
impression has gone abroad that the
school could not admit other stu
dents. The management hopes to be
able to give places to all who apply,
by arranging for temporary accom-
citations.
Supt. George White of the Tenth
District school visited the school
here yesterday, coming to learn
something of the management of the
school here has been heralded the
county over, as the ideal school of
its kind of all others attempting the
same work.

LITTLE HOPE FOX ROUSE
AT HANDS OF GOVERNOR
Believed He Will Not Inter.
feFG in Case

Atlanta, August 22.-The life u
William Rouse is now in Governor
Hoke Smiths hands, and some decision
on the governors part must come be
tween now and August 25, only three
days off, for the hanging is set for that
date. The sentiment, or rather belief,
at the capitol, is that Governor Smith
will not interfere with the execution.
Rouse was convicted in Worth county
of the murder of William Bailey. APP
peals to the court of appeals and to
the state prison commission have both
been turned down.
