District School Bars Girls.

Co-education of the sexes received
its death knell in the Third Dis
trict Agricultural and Mechanical
School, located near Americas, in
the action Of the board of trustees
assembled last Saturday in annual
meeting Following considerable dis
cussion of the subject the trustees by
unanimous vote ordered the doors
Of the institution closed to young wo-
men after then next scholastic year.
Several trustees favored immedi-
ate action in the premises. putthere
being s young women in the gradu-
ating class of 1913 it was agreed to
extend the exclusion ul1ase and per-
NIT them to complete their course
and receive diplomas. Other girl
students now attending the institu-
ton will not be permitted to resume
their studies after next session.
In the opinion Of some Of the trus-
tees the admission of women TO the
college was deemed illegal, as the
legislative act creating the district
agricultural schools did not, they
say, contemplate the admission Of
women students. The Third district
college is the first one taking this
decisive step opposing co-educasion,
as in all other district college in Geo
rgia young women students are adj
mitted as they have been in this
college heretofore. There are 81 fe-
male and 10 male pupils attending
the institution. The college closed
Monday with commencement exer-
cises, twelve graduates, including
two young women, receiving diplo-
mas.

There is just one way that you know of
to be safe; that is, to keep mosquitoes

Women Lawyers For Georgia.

/
Representative Beck, Of Brooks
county, has introduced in the house
of representatives a bill The Consti-
tuition hopes will become epochal.
1t provides that women beadmit-
ted to the practice of law nGeorgia
upon a plane Of exact equality with
men, provided they measure up tc
the regulations now standing.
Last year a similar effort, to which
this paper gave all Of its encourage
ment, failed of consummation.
There is no cause in logic or JUS
tice why women should not enter the
courts Of Georgia without prejudice
as compared with men.
In medicine, in the other profess
sions, in business generally, they
compete with men and have demons
trated ability to hold their own.
The law that bars them from
legal practice in Georgia is an
anachronism perpetuated by few
other states.
Even Russia--benighted Russia,
as we love to call it's prepared to
lift the ban.
A woman will no more lose her
femininity in court Of justice than
at a sick bed, at business counsel
or in the laboratory Of sciene.
Twaddle and blind prejudice are
the mainstays Of the argument
against admission in Georgia.
We trust, sincerely, that the
general assembly viii take cognizance
Of a demand that is really statewide
and pass the Beck bill.
When SO proved and conservative
a jurist and patriarch as Judge John
Z. Hopkins, dean Of the judiciary in
Georgia, can plead for the principle
the bill embodies, it should be neces-
sary to raise no further advocacy in
its behalf.
Let us lift the ban and place Geor-
gia by the side Of the majority Of
enlightened commonwealth in
Georgia. Atlanta Constitution.

stocks, but the wood has Invariably
been found unsuitable for the high
class guns, and it has not heretofore
been used for guns Of poor quality.
The difficulty is not in the strength OF
the wood, but in the color, which IS
dark brown, with none Of the yellow
and light brown streaks that are found
so attractive for gunstocks. The wal
nut that has been used for British
gunstocks has come from Italy, Swift
zerland and France. 1t is said, how
ever, that the last tree suitable for
gunstocks in Italy has apparently been
cut, so that the supply Is now French,
but the prices for the French walnut
are going up so high that they may
within few years become pphibitive.
The French walnut Is now particular
ly in demand for veneering purposes,
1t being found more profitable, as
rule, to cut 1t for veneer than TO sell
it for gunstocks. Thus 1t is quite like

STATE TO RECOVER PAPERS
Manuscripts Stolen From Library III
Richmond During War Now Of
fered for Sale in New York.

Between sixty and seventy-five
manuscripts, written by Washington,
jefferson and Lafayette, which were
stolen from the Virginia State Libra
~ when Richmond was sacked in 1865
and which have been hidden from the
world since that time, have just come
to light in the catalogue of the An
derson Auction Company, Fourteenth
street and Madison avenue, New York
As soon as the state authorities dis
covered the list for sale, steps were
taken to recover them is possible.
To this end assistant Attorney-Gen-
eral Richard B. Davis left for New
York City yesterday morning lav-
ing been proceeded by State Librarian
Fl. R. McIlWaine, who started north
Sunday night. From the description
of the papers in the catalogue of the
auction company, DR.. Mcllwaine and
the Governor are convinced that they
are the manuscripts which were lost
near the close of the war. The state
does not know the exact number Of
papers in the possession Of the heirs
of the late Benson NJ. Losing, in
whose behalf the auction company are
making the sale, nor the actual worth
of them, hut DR.. McIlwaine estimates
their value at several thousand dol
lars.
Governor Mann admitted the New
York discovery when questioned alb
out the matter yesterday, adding that
the state Of Virginia would make 4
determined fight to recover the papers
if it developes that they are the docu-
ments which were originally the prop
erty Of the Commonwealth.
The three-s score documents in ques-
ton are mostly letters relating to the
Continental army and public affairs,
written by General Washington to
Thomas Jefferson and Marquis de La
rayette. Included in the collection
are letters to Washington from these
two famous men in reply to his own
correspondence. Some of the letters
are of a private nature.
