GENE RAJ SHERMAN
 WAS ONCE HEAD IF SOUTHERN SCHOOL
Famous Northern General Resigned From Louisiana
 School to Join Army

BATON ROUGE, La, April 22.- Launching of preparations for the annual reunion of the United Con- federate Veterans to be held in New Orleans in April has recalled to Louisiana historians an interesting fact in connection with one of the outstanding figures of the Civil war which Is known to few persons of the present generation.
 General William Tecumseh Sher- man. who headed the march to the sea" through Georgia, resigned as head of southern educational insti- tuition in 1861 to tender his services to Ohio, his native state.
 There hangs in Garig hall at Louisiana State University here, an oil painting of General Sherman. who was first superintendent of the old Louisiana State Seminary at Alex andria. The seminary was burned in 1869, was relocated in Baton Rouge and became Louisiana State. General sherman, who graduated at West Point, attained the rank of colonel in the army, resigned his commission, and was elected superintendent of the seminary in 1859.
 member of the faculty of the seminary was Col. Samuel H. Lockett, commandant of cadets, who grad uated second in the class of 1859 at West Point. Colonel Lockett was an artist of note and the portrait or General Sherman now in Garig hall was painted by him at Alexandria. Colonel Lockett, incidentally. enlisted in the service of the Confederacy at the outbreak, of the war and as chief engineer with the troops at Vicks- burg planned the Qualifications at that point which withstood for many months the siege of the federal forces under General Grant.
 The portrait of General Sherman hung over the mantel in the library of the seminary at Alexandria and when the building burned it was car ried to safety by the cadets.

Garbage Men Whang
And Smash the Cans

Complaint has reached The Pail
sadian about the garbage removal
men. 1t seems that garbage cans do
not make much of an appeal to these
knights of the garbage pail. They
come around with regularity enough,
but are extremely Indifferent about
handling the cans. In many cases
they lift the can from the sidewalk
to the garbage cart, the helper on top
emptying it then hurting it back to the
sidewalk all bruised and smashed. AS
one Bluff road housewife put it;
II cannot conceive the right these
men take in damaging our garbage
cans. They cost money, and are not
intended to be hurled off the cart on
to the sidewalk curbing, thus putting
great dents into the sides of the cans,
and making it impossible to put the
tops on. AS labor saving device
tossing the cans around in this fash
ion may be all very nice, but the
custom is not appreciated. l for one
want it understood that it is all wrong
and the garbage man must treat my
cans as they should be in future, or
shall appeal to the Borough"
Ask other family heads. They will
tell of this can banging.

MUST BORO BORROW
MONEY AT SO TO
PAY BID. OF EDUCATION
Both Sides Discussed at Council
Meeting; 80 on Delinquent
Tax Outrageous, Says Mcclure.

A letter from Mr.. Kelly, clerk of the
Board of Education, to the Mayor and
Council asking that half of the school
appropriation be turned over to the
Board of Education at once started a
lively discussion in the Council meet
ing on Monday night.
Councilman Schweitzer seemed to
regard it as an unreasonable request
and said it was ridiculous for the bor-
ough officials to borrow money at
per cent, turn it over to the Board of
Education. and they redeposit it and
draw per cent. He said it all comes
out of the taxpayers pockets.
Councilman Dietrich defended the
Board of Education's request and
cited the law which made it clear that
the money due the school board must
be turned over in lump payments on
July Is and December Is of each
year, and if the borough did not have
it they must borrow it or pay per
cent interest from the time it is due.
He stated it was not the intention of
the Board of Education to work a
hardship an the borough, but it was
simply case of complying with the
law. He said if it is not good law
steps should be taken to repeal it.
In the discussion that followed the
fact that the borough collected s per
cent on delinquent taxes was brought
up and the point advanced that to pay
per cent of the 8 per cent collected
there was still profit to the borough
of per cent. This was met with the
argument that the interest on delin-
quent taxes is often consumed by un-
paid taxes, and a small percentage of

wine instead of liquors of high al
