 BROWN IN JAIL

Will Brown, a negro, was arrested at the Louisville and Nashville railroad crossing at Twentieth street last night about 10 o'clock by Officers Propst, Bur- kett and Vaughn, with 10 gallons of whs- ky in his possession.

Roads and Bridges.

The report on Roads and Bridges
submitted by the same committee,
showed that Lafayette County has
issued in bonds for the building of
roads in the last five years Of which
$130,000. 90 was sold by the First
District, while no adequate means
were used it is assured that this has
had a tremendous influence upon the
citizens of this county, not only en-
bracing the value of the property ad-
jacent to these roads but they have
been an important factor in putting
Lafayette County first in amount Of
produce exported. The value of these
roads to this county cannot be esti-
mated in dollars and cents. Both this
and the above report was read by

The Negro.

DR.. w. l.. Kennon having recently
returned from meeting of the Com
mission on Southern Race Questions,
told of the work that was being
done and being planned by this group
of College professors to create wise
sympathy and generous cooperation
with the southern negro. He clearly
brought before the Club, the import
ance of the question, the attitude oil
the negro so far as could be ascertain
ed by the Commission, and our duty
as citizens, to think over this question
basing our views and conclusions on
reason.
After a few minutes discussion or
this all important question in which
several views were expressed the Clup
adjourned to meet again Thursday,
May 20.

for consolidation are very evident and
there should be several more of the
small one teacher schools combined =.
This not only affords longer, better
and more intense training for the pu-
pills but it raises the qualifications and
consequently the salaries of the
teachers.
In reviewing the Agricultural High
School it was indeed pleasing and
gratifying to find the good work that
it is doing, the completeness of its
modern equipment.
Editors Note).- &
1t is to be impressed upon the minds
of those who read this: that these
conditions are not all prevalent in this
county alone. In fact Lafayette is
very much more progressive and has
better educational facilities than a
number of counties of our State. We
merely take this county as an example
Of existing conditions because we are
best able to study them at first hand
due to the kind assistance Of the cOun-
ty officials who are always glad to aid
us in any possible manner that they
are able.

UNIV. CLUB REPORTS
/. ON COUNTY EDUCATION
Educational Institutions, Roads And
Bridges In Lafayette County Inves-
tigated By University Club.

The University Club met Thursday
evening in the Faculty Committee
Room. After few minutes cOnversa-
ton on current happenings, the meet
ing was called to order by President
Johnson. The committee consisting
of Guthrie and DoXey, working under
the advisership Of Dr.. FAINT submitted
their report on the conditions Of the
schools in Lafayette County. Much
information had been assembled by
this committee and many facts We're
presented which startled those who
heard the report-for instance it was
shown that Lafayette County receives
SAP, ,562 &c from the State Treasury
for schools alone, that she pays into
the Treasury for all purposes com
bined $26,428. 50, thus receiving $16,-
1874. or more for schools alone than it
pays to the Treasury. This is only
an example of many counties who are
not self sustaining in educational
lines. Lafayette is only o1e of the
many counties that -levies no school
tax-thus neglecting to a great extent
the greatest duty and responsibility
that rests upon the people Of this state
and county. The per cent Of educable
children who are now in school is en-
tirely too low for county that pos
sesses the educational facilities that
this one does. The conditions Of the
country schools should be greatly i'm
proved as was clearly brought out by
the study and report. The chances

Orchestra Good.

An exceptionally interesting varia-
tion from the regular routine Of Cha
pei exercises was experienced last
Wednesday, when during heightened
chapel period the University Band en-
tertained the students and faculty with
an excellent program. Director Wor-
ley was extremely liberal and many
numbers were heard by an attentive
aad appreciative audience for almos,

The excellent result of the work of
the members Of the Band and Orches-
ira was clearly shown by this concert
and it is source Of pride to the school
to have seen so much accomplished
during this, the first year of Mr.. Wor-
ley's management.
Every member Of the organization
deserves the highest praise to have
worked so faithfully and earnestly.
This is the frts year that credit to-
wards degree has been given for this
work and it is gratifying to note that
the experimental experiment it may
be called-is entirely successful.
The history Of the attempts at form
ing a band for the last rev years has
been erratic and unsatisfactory and it
is pleasing to think that this year will
probably be a landmark in the musical
history of the University and that
henceforth the institution will have a
musical organization equal to any OF
its kind in the schools Of the country
Needless to say that the pieces
were highly enjoyed by the audinece.
This was evidenced by the frequent
applause. Mr. Worley may feel justly
proud of having perfected such an or
ganization that should be and, we
have hopes, will be one of the most
important factors IN the progress OF

liquor he had in his possession, he said
he got a porter to get it for him last
night; that there ware a pumber of
porters around the station when the
train came in; that the one he APP
preached had a porter's cap on and
he did not know what hotel he was
from, or what his name was. Asked
why he applied to the porter for booze,
he said the porters were supposed to
know where to get it.
He said the porter went up Main
street, meaning west on Main street
from the depot he said, and was not
gone long. on his return he, Glover,
gave the porter 81. for the bottle.
The bottle was fun and the witness
said he had been mp to the sanitarium
to see a man when the policeman az
rested him.
The mayor said it appeared that all
the witness knows is that ne had some
booze and, turning to Chief Of Police
Chancellor he said:
Uncle Jim, take him to your Jail
and keep him there until he finds
where he bought this booze. / will
prepare the proper order and hand 1t
to you in a few minutes
The prisoner went to jail and the
bottle of booze went TO the mayors
office, both awaiting developments.

WEATHER MANS REPORT

Here is a synopsis Of weather and
crop conditions in Oklahoma for the
week ending Tuesday, April Is;
OKLAHOMA City, April 16. - The
weather was too cool and wet for IA
vorable growth of vegetation. Freez
ing temperature occurred in the north.
west portion and frost in exposed To-
calities in other sections of the state
during the early part of the week, but
no material damage resulte. Precipi-
tation was general and heavy to eX-
cessiye The rainfall was very heavy,
beating crops to the ground, and wash
ing the soil badly in many localities,
especially in the south-central portion.
Destructive wind and hailstorms were
also reported i'm many localities.
"Wheat continues to make satisfac.
tory progress generally and the crop,
rs a whole, is i'm excellent condition.
The continuance of excessive moisture
is, however, causing too rank a growth
in many localities especially on low,
wet ground and some correspondents
report the plants beginning to lodge or
fall. one report Of the presence of
green bugs is reported from Pawnee
county, but no serious damage has yet
occurred, and at the present time the
