THE KNAPP SCHOOL.

One Of the bills to attract the at
teution of the people of Nashville
and of Tennessee pending before
the present General Assembly is
that to tnrn over to the Knapp
School of Country Life that portion
Of the Hermitage farm now occu-
pied by the Confederate Veterans
Home. phe bill has the endorse
naent of the Executive Committt o
OF the Soldiers Home, Mark Cock
rill, Maj. @ A. Locke and Hamil-
ton Parks.
It is provided that the annual
rental of $4,000 be paid 10y the
Knapp School to the Soldiers
Home and that seventy i've acre 8
of land be reserved by it for pas
turage, truck gardening, etc. This
Is preemiuently profitable trans
action for the Soldiers Home, as
it would relieve them of the burden
of keeping up the farm aud at the
same time guarantee to them pro-
6table income aud SO much of the
land as they may need.
The Ladies' Hermitage Associa-
ton wonld assuredly be large
beneficiary, since the location of
this farm near the Hermitage prac-
tically guarantees the extension of
the car line to that community.
This would so increase the mum Der
Of visitors to the Hermitage that
the gate receipts would be increas-
ed nnnyfoll, If the average cl,i-
gen could reach the Hermitage by
trolley, it would widen the scope of
the splendid work now being done
by the Ladies Hermitage Associa-
ton.
But by far the most impressive
and helpful result of the passage
Of this bill is that this farm Of
Andrew Jackson's should become
at once a practical agency for lend
ing blessing to the thousands Of
farmers, their sons and tl.eirdaugh-
tiers throughout the South aud a
splendid acknowledgements bel p
fulness to the name of Americas
Rrst commonef. Andrew Jackson
was par excellence the plain peo-
pies first representative in the
White House. He thought in
terms of terms of their needs. 1t
is, therefore, eminently fitting that
his farm shall be devoted to the SER
vice of the great majority of the
South's productive citizenship.
It does not fall to the lot of many
Southern General Assemblies to
the whole South and to the nation
as this opportunity affords to the,
present session Of the General AS
sembly of Tennessee.-Editoria in

ance at home and on the road has
caused the team bank roll to dwindle
until it has assumed lean and hungry
that is alarming. Had it
rained Sunday in Dubuque, the team
would have been stranded there, with
out any means of getting back home.
Business Manager Virg Sanders was
paying part of the expenses of the club
on the incoming receipts and on Sun
day morning he discovered that he
was nearly broke" There were no
means of getting money from home,
and everything depended on the re-
ceipts of Sunday afternoon. Luckily,
it was bright day and the attendance
was large. All the players were paid
of Wednesday and the club purse is
about as empty as beer barrel after
a bartenders' picnic. It was hoped
that the Davenport and Dubuque series
this week would help pay expenses.
There were only 240 paid admissions
at yesterdays game, however.
Manager George Reed is making an
effort to dispose of one or more play
ers in order to raise some ready money
for the club.-Decatur Review.
