A Strictly Select School.
The people of Columbus will learn with much
pleasure that Professor J. Harris Chappell has
decided to remain in Columbus and take charge
of a select school for girls. On Yesterday he for
warded his resignation as president of the Nor
man school at Jacksonville, Ala., and makes the
announcement in regard to his school here. This
school was not sought by Professor Chappell, but
he responded to the importuning of some of our
THU COW QUESTION.
The clerk announced that the first business on
bis desk was theoidinnnce by Alderman Garrett
on the cow question, and Alderman Dozier’s sub
stitute therefor.
Alderman Garrett offered a substitute for his
original ordinance with a few changes.
'Phe mayor announced that Alderman Dozier’*
subsitute was first in order.
Alderman Dozier spoke in favor of hiasubsti
tute. He thought it would obviate most of the
trouble now caused by cows running n! large. If,
however, it proved inefficient, lie was in favor of
adopting severer measures.
Alderman Curtis thought the substitute would
prevent the depredations committed on flower
yards, etc.
Alderman Dillingham opposed the substitute,
and said he believed the cows ought to be kept
off the streets day and night, because the lives of
women and children are endangered by allowing
them to run at large.
Alderman Garrett spoke in favor of his ordi
nance. He said he did not desire to oppress
anybody, but he introduced the ordinance at the
request of the Indies of the park association and
for other reasons. He believed that they should
he kept up for the protection of the women and
children.
Alderman Jefferson said he opposed Alderman
Dozier’s substitute hecuusc he was in favor of
the stock law.
Alderman Dozier reminded Alderman Garrett
that eighteen months ago he was opposed to
keeping up the cows. Then Alderman Garrett
owned a fine Jersey cow.
Alderman Garrett replied that his opinion
about many things had changed in eighteen
months. He had sold his Jersey cow because
she committed depredutions upon the premises
of his neighbors.
Alderman Me Each re n was not much in favor of
troubling the cows at all, and moved to lay the
matter on the table, but got no second to his mo
tion.
Alderman Foley was opposed to keeping the
cows up day and night because he thought it j
would cause sickness.
Alderman Brannon suggested a compromise,
coming paralyzed with a hemorrhage. Lifting
her eyes to the ceiling of the cupola of the capi-
tol to conceal her unparalleled embarrassment,
making a rough courtesy and not harassing
him with mystifying, rarefying and stupefying
innuendoes, she gave him a couch, a bouquet of ! ], 0m " e '] a8 t night

Rev. K. II Harris at Hamilton.
The Hamilton Journal, in its account of the
musical convention at Hamilton, lias the follow
ing complimentary notice of Rev. R. II. Harris, of
this city:
“Saturday morning at eleven o’clock, Rev. R.
H. Harris, ofthe First Baptist church, in Colum
bus, delivered the annual address. It was listened
to with pleasure and profit by a well crowded
house, and if itself the only feature of the con
vention, it would have made of the convention a
pronounced success.
' “The speaker used manv apt illustrations to
strengthen the force of his urgument and was
entertaining throughout. Ho vacated the pulpit
and spoke from a position in front of it, for fear,
as he said, he should stump his toe on a Joke.
The sacred associations of the pulpit forbade his
joking while speaking in it. But while there was
much in the address to make his hearers smile,
there was nothing that one of his hearers could
have pronounced out of place in a pulpit orator.
All who heard him will be glad of an opportunity
to hear him again.”

Accidental Poisoning.
A knowledge of what to do in case of many
emergencies, certain to arise in families, espe
cially where there are children, is an important
part of a woman’s education. Hall’s Journal of
Health gives the following directions for acci
dental poisoning: If you have swallowed a
poison, whether laudanum, arsenic or other
poisonous drug, put a teaspoouftil of ground
mustard in a glass of water, cold or warm, stir
and swallow quickly. Instantaneously the con
tents of the stomach will be thrown up, not al
lowing the poisonous substance time to be ab
sorbed aud taken into the blood. As soon as
vomiting ceases swallow the white of
one or two eggs, for the purpose
of antagonizing any small portion of
the poison which may have been left behind. Let
the reader remember the principle, which is to
get the poison out of you as quickly as possible.
There are other things which will also serve as a<*
speedy emetic, but the advantage of mustard-is,
it is always at hand, it acts instantaneously,
without any other medicinal effects. The use of
the white of an egg is that, although it does not
nullify all poisons, it antagonizes a larger nuin.
ber than any other agent so readily attainable.
But, having taken the mustard or egg, send for a
physician ; these are advised in order to sav
time, as the delay of twenty minutes often causes
death.

days.
The chief of police reported 14 arrivals of boats
during July, from which $70 were collected as
port dues.
The clerk of market reported f88.85 collected
from wagons during July.
The city physician reported 4 patients admitted
to the hospital during July, 4 discharged and 2
died. Three wore remaining in the hospital 011
August 1st.
The city sexton reported that during July there
were 17 interments in the. white cemetery, 8 of
which were non-residents. There were 30 inter
ments in the colored cemetery, 11 of which were
non-residents.
Several petitions asking for sewers and gas
lamp posts were referred to the proper com
mittees.
SOME SERIOUS CHARGES.
At the conclusion ofthe readiug of the city phy"
sician's report Alderman Dozier stated that Dr.
Cameron was present and desired to say a few
words. Unanimous consent was given. Dr. Cam
eron said that he appeared before the council to
perforin a very unpleasant duty. He then charged
that Dr. Glass, the city druggist, had on several
occasions failed to compound prescriptions us he
had written them, substituting inferior drugs,
and sometimes almost completely changing the
prescriptions. He also charged that Dr. Glass
sometimes spoke very offensively to poor people
who went there for medicines. He said he had
no personal feeling against Dr. Glass, but he be
lieved it to be his duty to report these facts to
council.
Alderman Dozier stated that if these charges
against Dr. Glass were investigated, he thought
the investigation should lie extended to Dr. Cam-
evon, as it had been charged that in some in
stances he had refused to attend some of the poor
ofthe city unless they would pay him for his ser
vices. He thought the investigation should be
made in justice to all ooncerned.
Council ordered the hospital committee to
make a thorough investigation of the charges
against both gentlemen.
He was a member of the Odd Fellows and they
will attend his ftineral at Lumpkin to-day. The
remains were taken to Lumpkin yesterday by
Mr. J. S. B. Crossman and Mr. Ben S. Williams,
and the ftineral will take place this morning at-
9 o’clock. In this sad bereavement the grief-
stricken son nnd daughter have the sincere
sympathy of many friends.

that while in the Gulf City he will adorn the
homes, counting rooms, and offices of the people
there, who desire to have them made fresh and
new. He is an artist in his line, as hundreds of
houses that he has made beautifril in this city will
attest. It was his handiwork and skill which
transformed the unsightly business office ofthe
