NO FALL ELECTION.

It so happens that there will be no
election in this city this fall. Under
ordinary circumstances an election OF
school commissioners would have
been held on the seventh OF next
month.
Yesterday was the last day for
nominations and beth political parties
failed to make nominations. Just why
this was no enc has yet come forward
TO say. Whether or not 1t was inten-
tional on the part CT the party leaders
is not said. Probably they thought
that the affairs of the beard were
running so smoothly and the the pres
ent commissioners were giving such
good satisfaction that 1t was decided
not to disturb them Rather it is be-
l,eved, however, that the matter
slipped their notice and as the school
beard did not deem it necessary to
call attention to the fact there was
no call for nominations and the pres
ent members cf the board will hold
ever for another year.
The management of the city schools
under the present board has been
generally satisfactory to the public
end great advance has been made and
ii is probably just as well to let the
board run along as 1t is and net dis
turb them in the good work they are
doing.
Evidently politics have been elimi-
mated from the election of school
commissioners and that is another
good thing,

WARNING.
No Foreigner Can Hunt in This State
Unless Naturaized.

There is a section Of the game law
with which but few persons are ac-
qpainted. That section relates to the
foreign born person not naturalized
and can produce the papers showing
that they have been naturalized, and
have become American citizens. 1t is
not believed that this condition was
really intended, but that in making
amendments to the old laws the leg
islature failed to make any provisions
for the foreigner who wishes to hunt
such game as other citizens are per-
mitted to kill. This applies whether
the foreigner has permission to hunt
on enclosed grounds or not, as above
stated.

The "pure FOOD law" Is designed by
the Government to protect the public
from injurious iagred' ents in both

to the public and to the conscientious
manufacturer. Ely's Cream Balm, a

containing no injurious drugs, meets
fully the requirements Of the new law,
and that fact is prominently stated on
every package. 1t contains none Of

charge of Mrs. Charles c. Guthrie,
of Charlotte. was held in Chatham
on May %. or the twenty-one chap
tiers in that district all were repre-
sented by delegates or reports. The
question under discussion was the ed
ucational feature of the Virginia Dr.

by the chairman LAT the. educational
committee. Mrs. James Fl. Hart. re-
porting that Washington and Lee ana
the Chatham Episcopal School have
given scholarships. 1t was recon-
mended by the conference that the
Virginia Division have scholarship

that 1t be maintained by the division.

Paramount. for trespass. the warrant
having been sworn out by w. j. En-

against Mrs. John Krouse, mistaking
her for her daughter in-law. Mrs EN-
