Buckhannon and it rapidly came to
occupy a place Of large influence. a
strong body Of people Of that denom-
ination We're conferred in that city.
But the West Virginia Wesleyan
Academy had been established in
1890, as noted above, and it was
found that the two institutions could
not thrive in the same community.
The academy Of the United Brethren
church was therefore discontinued in
1897.
Thus it will be seen that West Yir-
ginia Wesleyan College is heir not
only to the traditions OF the old
Western Virginia Academy but also
to those Of the French Creek Acad-
envy and the academy Of the United

Perhaps the position Of Influences
which Wesleyan occupies is due
somewhat to another line Of Historical
development also. Famous in the
educational annals Of central West
Virginia is the school and classical
academy founded at French Creek.
The French Greek settlement was es-
tablished by colonists from New Eng
land who brought with them their
New England devotion to learning.
The French Greek Academy had the

ATLANTA, June 1.-The recent re-
union of the Scottish Rite Bodies of
Free Masonry in the Valley of Allan

tory both in point of comforting the
degrees and the size of the class re-

The visiting Masons were very much
in the work of the Masons' Annuity,
which is providing for the widows and
orphans of Masons. The order has
an accumulation of nearly 100000
which is cnstantly growing for the
protection of its members and fam
lilies. Through the eTorts of Henry
II. Furlow superintendent of organiza-
ton, the order has just entered the
states of Missouri, Oklahoma, South
Carolina and Virginia. 1t will enter
Tennessee and North Carolina later,

filed.
An interesting feature in connection

TAX Collector Giynn Co., Ca"
We find that the Tax collector does
not keep a precise and comprehensive
cash book, and owing to this fact it
is impossible In the limited time allow
ed during the session of court to thor
oughly check and verify his receipts
We also find instances of where
vouchers are issued in his (the Tax
collector's) favor to reimburse him for
monies paid out during current months
for running expenses OF the court
house. and that he has failed to prop
erly receipt these vouchers. We sug-
gest that the Tax collector pay out no
monies of the county unless 1t is upon
voucher issued and signed by proper
officials.
We recommend that rae funds of the
board of education. when deposited in
bank. be deposited In the name of the
board of education OF Glynn comfy. so
that they may be kept as a separate
and distinct fund from any other mon.
les belonging to the county. or per-
sonal funds of the officers.
We find on the Tax collectors re-
port commissions authorized by law,
deducted but on account OF correct
cash book not being kept there is no
way of verifying these items as to
their correctness. and the county has
no receipt fer such commissions.
We recommend that no officers re.
eeiying monies for the county be au-
thoriEed TO pay cut, or make disburse.
ments, except the Treasurer, and he
only upon proper voucher.
County Books.
We have examined the books of the
various county officers and find them
all neatly and correctly kept. Espe.
cial mention should be made OF the
books of the clerk of the superior
eonrt-they are models of neatness
and correctness.
We recommend that the tax collect.
or be furnished cash book TO meet
his demands. We also recommend that
the tax collector be provided with adj.
ditionM filing cabinets for his books
and records, as it appears that iii.
ing cabinets in his Office are insult.
cient for his needs.
The books OF the justices of the
peace from the following districts.
namely; 9Th, 1356th, and l4s9th.
have not been turned into this grand
jury for examination, and were not
therefore examined.
The books of Justices Of the Peace
j. t. Iambright ad ii. c. Couryoisier
have been examined and found TO be
very irregularly and incorrectly kent

recommend that these two justices
be abolished, and the business now
