Judge Holloway Seriously Sick. Citizens Claim They Have Eight Against License
 Won.

Owing to the serious illness of County Judge s. T. Holloway. the court did not convene on yesterday as was appointed on Friday last.
 The Temperance people, who have maintained the most un- animous and perfect organized fight ever witnessed in Monroe County have probably won the fight as there are but a very, very few white people in Brinkley who have not signed the petition against license. The High School was dismissed on Friday last and the President of the Board. the Principal, with every teacher, went to Clarendon with a hundred other representative citizens, praying for the order of mo license,
 The final hearing of the case will come as soon as Judge Holloway recovers from the serious illness from which he has been confined to his bed since Tuesday.

 To the School Boys and Girls of Monroe County:
 Many of you have never seen the writer of this letter, so l SUD- pose the first thing in order will be for me to introduce myself. I am the County Superintendent of Schools for this county and as such l am very much interested in ethe boys and girls of the county. As I visit your schools 1 trust that 1 shall become ac- quainted with you and your needs in an educational way and I trust that our schools may be so adjusted that you may be able to get the greatest possible good from them. The public schools of the county exist for the child ren of the county and you should make the best possible use Of the school in your community. Attend it every day that it is in session and be diligent in your studies. l want you to develop into industrious, aw-abiding. and God-fearing citizens. You are soon to become the men and women who will control commu- nifty affairs and you must prepare yourselves to that end. Greater responsibilities will fall upon you than are now resting upon your fathers and mothers and you must be prepared to meet them. If you are a merchant you will have sharper competition than your father has for more people will be following the same line of business in your day than in his. If you are a farmer you will have to raise more corn per acre than your father does for there will be a greater demand for it on account of increased population. It matters not in
 what line of business you en- gage, when you become men and
 women, you will have to surpass
 what is now being done in the

TERRIBLE PLAYING GIVEN

SEMINARY IS STILL
BONE OF CONTEN TON
Heresy Of Members Of the
Faculty is Still under
Fire at Assemblies.


ATLANTA, Ca. May 20.-With the
likelihood that nothing further will
be accomplished until next year to-
ward the organic union of all branches
OF Presbyterianism following the ac-
ton OF the Southern Presbyterian. As
sembly to consider for the present no
union except with the United Presby-
terian church, the various assemblies
today devoted their attention to mat
tiers of denominational interest.
While the deliberations of the as
semblies were marked by less con-
troversy than those of yesterday, more
than ordinary interest was shown in
the Northern Presbyterian continue
ton of speeches for and against re-
sumption of relations with the Union
Theological seminary. The belief en-
tertained by the members of that in
stitution faculty was again made the
object of attacks that change of doc
trine out of accord with the church
is taught at the seminary.

Says.
ACTION ON CONTRACT
Made with the Board Can Not

Courts.
nv AsseerArEp raEss,

CHARLESTON, May 2O-The ques-
ton whether a suit could be main
tanned against the state board of con
troll which furnishes all the supplies
for state institutions was decided in
the negative today by the supreme
court of appeals.
The court held that the state board
of control is direct governmental
agency of the state and that an action
on a contract made by that board in
the line of its state agency is in reality
and substance suit against the state
itself and cannot be maintained.
The suit was that of the Miilers'

against the board of cSntrol for mer-
chanaise furnished the board for one
of the state institutions.

johnson was received here with re-

prove successful The efforts of the
japanese government are concen-

opinion but the task is regarded as
more difficult than at the time of the

the death of the old emperor the au-
thority of the government has stead
