MAIL ROBBER
Captured This morning
Dy Government De
tectives.
AT POLICE STATION
Robert the negro who woiki at
•he mail transfer xfffice :a nrght was ar
'•e':c 1 early this morning by 9’ostofflcc
Inspector* J. iH, War lie and R. E. Barry,
on the charge of robbing the mail 3.
For gome time pa.*' complaint’has been
male to Heitz in regard to
missing let ers, Mr. Hertz .han been at a
own to know iwha't became of the letters
and report* 1 the matter to the chief post
office in.«p< cotr ait Washington. The main
<-a mpLeina n t •*'.<• :iw American National
Bank of this efty,* They claim they have
ln«t over ST,OOO worth of checks in the
past two months.
The firs:, letter turned up missing some
•time ago soon after other losses were
reported. The 10.-;. bicame so heavy that
Air. Hertz requested 'hat an inspector be
sent, here a once. The above named de
fectives arrived here Monday morning and
began work on the < ase. Postmaster 'Hertz
did not. think dhat the robbery was taking
place tn his office but the officers made a
leaf, anyway. They found the office alright
and began a wa on the transfer office.
The negro porter was placed on surveil
lance and last night they decided to send a
decoy letter through the mail.
The letter containing $1.75 'was mailed
at the transfer office and the mail clerk on
the 'Atlanta which arrived here at 4 ,
o'clock this morning, was instructed to |
look out for the letter. When he opened ■
the mail box this morning he found the j
D'tier missing, and as Jones was the only'
person who had 'been aroun l the office, he I
was arrested. I
He stoutly denied having taken the I
money, but on being searched the same I
money that had been placed in the let- !
-er was found on bi's person. He was .ta- 1
ken to the police .-.aiion where he is being ■
held to await the action of the grand jury. ;
Jones miakes the sixth transfer porter |
that has been arrested at .this office in the
past two years. One of the detectives in
speaking of the matter 'this morning said
that it seemed impossible to break the
gang up. The wo detectives will recom
mend that*, an additional clerk be placed
on <at night at the transfer office. The
amount of mail that, has .to be handled at
.night ibew* bt'vn grown g and the service of
... regular man Isl the service of the gov-
■ ernnaen't is needed.
It is thought by some that the transfer
office at the dejM>t Is under .he control of
the, but it is a distinct depart- ■
rnent.. The regular transfc clerk is on I
'duty during the day and the mail is I
handled at night by negroes in the em- j
I'lqj Hit idilr-wd companies.
The postmaster has repeatedly urged the 1
department to emplloy a night transfer i
clerk, but without success. It is expected, I
however, that as the detectives have ;
« aught two thieves in the past two months, ;
that the authorities in Washington will 1
see the necessity of employing an addi- ’
tional clerk for the night service.
The detectives are to be congratulated
on 'their success, as it was an excellent ,
piece of work. They received a tolbgram .
from the dhitf this morni.ng or- I
dering them to make a full investigation !
of that matter and make recommendations. ;
They say t; at they will recommend an ad- \
ditiopal clerk for the night service. 1

Oilcloth Ceilings.
Oilcloth is the new material for paper
ing ceilings, the term “paper” being used
at present in a very elastic sense, signify
ing anything that can be put ou walls or
ceiling. The advantage of an oilcloth
ceiling is readily discernible, as dust, like
good actions, is sure to rise, and if one’s
home is illuminated by gas or lamps there
is only the recourse to the unsightly chan- I
dclier protectors to keep the ceiling from j
getting smudged. The oilcloth can be I
washed frequently and be kept, by the aid '
of a damp cloth, as good as now for in
finite spaces cf time or until one moves to
a newer apartment
The task of putting on tho oilcloth re
quires an expert, as the joining is not the
easiest thing to do. If you think so, try it.
The patterns of oilcloths seem particularly
well adapted for ceilings, with their scroll
and line effects, which do not conflict with
the patterns of the wall paper or its mono
chromatic effect.
In line with the ceilings is the new ma
-1 teria! for kitchen window curtains. —New

■ Lord, h’ve broken the record!”

In ScDddi Fund and How
’ It Happened.
OVER 400,000 LESS
I
The schcol appropriation for the next
, rear is to be reduced.
At the meeting of the appropriations
I committee of the house yesterday Chair
! man Chappell brought up the matter o;
; ’the appropriation to the public schools,
: and everybody expected that an explosion
: of some .sort was bound to fellow. But it
' didn't. On the contrary Representative
Blalock made his usual speech on the sub
ject, and one member after another was
beard, all speaking in exactly the same
I line. They were all opposed, they said,
to cutting the school fund, but they saw
no other way to hold down the tax rate,
j This was the burden of all the argument,
and one speech was so much like another
! that the audience began to leave before
, th debate was half ovr.
< Duiing the debate, however, over one
section of the bill, when Mr. Hall of Bibb,
bad made an argument in behalf cf re-
I ductlpn, Mr. (Blalock, of replied
• to him and dn his remarks commented on
; the, proportion cf negro students in that
county. When Mr. Elalock, took his seat
Mr. Knowles, of Fulton, arose and quietly
and courteously remarked that the gentle
man from Fayette had evinced an inter
-1 est in the pioportion of negro children
, being educated in Bibb county and there
fore be might be interested mi the pro
portions of negro children who were par
ticipating in the state appropriations for
common schools and lie —Mr. Knowles--
happened to be in a position to give him
the information as he had a statement
from official returns, and he read the
following:
Children enrolled in public schools — :
White children 270,267. or 5!) per cent., I
colored children 180,565, or 40 per cent.; |
total. 450,832. White schools, 4,822; white j
scholars, 27,267, an average of 59 per
cent.; colored schools, 2,611; colored schol
ar 180,565, an average of 69 per cent.;
total schools, 7,432; total scholars, in
school, 450,832, an average of 60 per cent.
Percentage of school fund -taxation is
2y 2 mills.
According to the comptroller general’s j
1898 report, the folowing figures are j
shown:
Whites return for taxation. $411,813,911, !
2 x Z 2 mills on which is $1,063,832.77.
Colored return for taxation, $1'3,719,200, i
2y 2 mills on which is $34,298, making a j
total for whites and colored of $425,533,- |
011, 2y 2 mills on which is $1,063,832.77.
From which shewing it will be observed '
that while the negroes contribute only |
about 3 per cent, cf the schocd tax. they I
participate to the extent of 40 per cent, in |
the appropriations.
Mr. Calvin, of Richmond, submitted an
amendment which proposed to strike out
certain words in the printed bill and sub
stitute, “For the support of common
sehocls, $600,000 for the year 1899, and
$600,000 for the year 1900. Should the total
propertv returnee'' for taxation in the
years 1899 -and 1900, ifipeetively, exceed '
$412,000,000, then the iax levy Oh the
amount in excess of $412,009,000 shall go
to thee ommon school fund of the state.
Mr. Calvin said-that this amendment
was along conservative lines and if the
people of Georgia were in a highly pros-
condition he would favor six
months schools throughout the state, but
that, under ihe most favorable circum
stances, should be the limit of the state'_s
cnnti ibution. Whatever* else the respec
tive counties might desire as to a greater i
length of term should come through local j
taxation, which, is the true policy as to j
publip education. He produced figures j
showing that with a reduction of $400,000'
there would remain a fund of $1,240,381,
which was greater than the. fund of 1597
by $70,436, and greater than the fund of
1896 by *79.329. The aggregate fund left
would operate the schools live months, I
which just now is as long as the people, j
as a rule, can afford to patronize them. .
He had long been a friend to the cause of ;
free public'inorticticr, but_ the school in- I
terest was not tho only interest in tae ,
state. To take off the $400,000 will be to ’
reduce the tax rate 1 mill.
At the conclusion of the argument ;
Chairman Chappell,said that the vote of i
the committee would be taken beginning i
with the highest appropriation proposed.
Air. King, of Houston, moved to make it I
$1,000,000, which was the figure last year, ,
but a chorus of noes sent him J.o a rear
seat. Mr. Fest., of Coweta, wanted to ,
make it SBOO,OOO, but he met with the
same fate. Mr. Laing', of Terrell, suggest- i
ed $750,000 and .was sat down upon. Mr. i
Joi'dc.n. of Jasper, thought that $700,000 i
would be about right, but a big majority j
thought otherwise. Then Mr. Morris, of i
Cobb, moved ‘that the old appropriation ;
of $600,000 be made, and his motion pre- i
vailed so quickly that Mr. Hall-, of Bibb, j
who was on his feet advocating $500,000,
did not even get a beating. Almost as
soon as Mr. Morris' motion was adopted |
the committee adjourned and the com- |
pitted bill was left in the hands of the ,
clrk.
Following is 'the Const’ilulion's report of :
the action of the appropriations commit
tee of 'the legislature with reference .to the j
curtailment of the school funds:
The spectators held their breath wihen
Chairman Chappell brought up the matter
of the appropriation to the public schools,
and everybody expected that an explosion
of some sort was bound to follow. But it
didn’t. On the contrary. Representative
Blalock made his usual speech on the sub
ject, and one member after another was
heard, all speaking in exactly the same
line. They were all opposed, they said to
cutting 'the school fund, but they saw no
other way to hold own the tax rate. This -
was the burden of all the argument, and '
one speech was so much like another that j
the audience began to leave before the de- •
bate was over.
During th debate, however, over one sec
tion of the bill, when Mr. Hall, of Bibb,
bad made an argument in behalf of reduc
tion, Mr. Blalock, of Fayette, replied to
him, and in his remarks commented on the
proportion of negro students in that coun
ty. When Mr. Blalock took his seat Mr.
Knowles, cf Fulton, arose and quietly and
courteously remarked that the gentleman
from Fayette had evinced an interest in
the proportion of negro children being ed
ucated in Bibb couffty and therefore he
might be interested in the proportion of
negro children who were participating in
the state appropriations for common i
schools and he —Mr. Knowles—happened to
be in a position to give him the informa- i
tion as he had a Statement prepared from
official returns, and he read the following: i
Children enroMed in public schools —
White children. 270,267, or 59 per cent;
■ colored children. 180,565, or 40 per cent; :
total 450.532. White schools, 4.522; white
scholars 270,267, an average of 59 per cent; j
j colored schools, 2.611; colored scholars, j
1 180,565/ an average of 69 per cent; total 1
’ s»e?ec<>. 7.452: total scholars In schools,
• 450,832. an average of bo per cent
Percentage of school fund taxation is 2 1 &
’ mills.
According to 'he comptroller general's
. 18&8 report, the following figures are
I ta; .vn:
Whites© return for taxation. $411,813,-
. - . ’ -■ ■ . ._.77.
Colored return for taxation. >13.719.260.
2 1 - mills on which is $34,293.00 nicking a
tc;al for v.hitc.3 and colored of 425,533,011,
2H; miP’s of which is 51,063.832,77.
From which showing ic will be observed
that while The r.egf roes' contribute only
! about 3 per cent of the school tax, they
participate to the extent of 40 per cent in
: the appropriations.
• Mr. Calvin, of Richmond, submitted an
amendment which proposed to strike out
, Certain words i nthe printed bill and sub
stitute, “For the supper.:, of common
schools, SOOO,OOO for tlj e year 1899, and
$600,000 for the year 1900. Should the total
: property returned for taxation in the year*
1899 and 1900, respectively, exceed $412,-
000,000, then the tax levy cn the amount in
I excess of $412,000,000 shall go to the com
| mon school fund of rhe state.”
| 'Mr. Calvin sail this amendment was
, along conservative lines and if the people
. of Georgia were in a highly prosperous
J condition he would favor six months’
I Schools throughout the stat?, but that, un
der the most favorable circulnstances,
should be the limit of the state's contribu
i tion. Whateverever else the respective
counties might desire as to a greater
length of term should come through local

had long been a friend to the cause of free

1 the only interest in the state. To take
i oft’ the $400,000 would be to reduce the tax
, rate 1 thill.
At the conclusion of the argument
i Chairman Chappell said that 'the vote of

Mr. 'Laing, of Terrell, suggested $750,000
and was sat down upon. Mr. Jordan, of
Jasper, thought that $700,000 would be
about right, but a big majority thought
otherwise. Then Mr. Morris, of 'Cobb, ,
moved (that the old appropriation of $600,-
000 be made, and his motion prevailed so
quickly that .Mr. Hall, of Bibb, who was
