Important t'liangc lu School Hours.
At the adjourned quarterly meeting of
tho Board of Public Education yesterday,
it was determined to liavo one session a
day in the public schools of this county,
instead of two ns heretofore. Tho new
rule will go into effect next Monday.
The school hours will lip from half, pa lit
eight a. m. to two p. a., with an inter
mission of half on hour.
We are glad that the Board lias at last
reached this wise determination. Five
hours in the school room each day is as
lunch as the children can stand with
profit to themselves, and wo are satis
fied that it is the wish of the people that
that rule should be adopted.
Assault with latent tv Murder.
In our report of the proceedings of tho
Mayor's Court yesterday morning, a de
tailed statement was given of a difficulty
between some colored men, growing out
of an insult offered by one of them to a
young sister of the other two. The
names of the parties to this affray were
Eugene Wilson. Obie Wilson and Jim
Plant. Plant, it is averred, had made
improper proposals to a sister of tlio
Wilsons, and they sought to punish him
therefor. Plant denies conducting him
self toward the girl as charged, and in
order to bo avenged he took out a war
rant for the Wilsons. The matter went
before the grand jury, a true bill was
found, charging them with assault with
intent to murder, and the boys were ar
rested and are now in jail awaiting trial.
The Mayar’n Court.
His Honor, the Mayor, bad five cases
l-ofore him yesterday.
Wally Wood and Willie Bazeuiore are
a couple of pranky boys who own Ala-
lama slings. Their custom is to “sling”
buckshot at windows whenever a favora
ble opportunity occurs. They were caught
while in the act of committing that kind
of mischief, and his Honor fined them fire
dollars each.
George Rose, of the black Variety, is of
a literary frame of mind. He goes to
school and is probably educating himself
up to the standard of a “Christian states
man.” Certainly he is following in the
footsteps of the illustrious patron of his
race who has already won that enviable (?)
title. He loves to lounge about book
stores, gazing with admiration upon the
gorgeously bound duodecimos, octavos
and quartos which stand in majestic rows
upon their shelves, and sometimes he
flips a book into his pocket and walks off
with it, forgetting to pay for it. But
great men are often abaent-minded. Day
before yesterday George slipped a book
into bis pocket, from the counter of one
of our bookstores, and was about to go off
in his usual absent-minded manner, when
he was detained, a policeman called in
nnd the literary gentleman locked in the
barracks. He was fined five dollars for
stealing.
Dan Burgay was fined five dollars for a
simple drunk.
A case of chronic drunkenness cost the
PtfHBt fire dollar..
The Mpt W aiker*.
, The Tuttle Brother gave tk« :r . il.i! i-
! t.on of ;.~alkin ; yesterday afternoon,
before a large crowd of spectators. A
rope vt.-k stretched from Hr.Ts building,
on Cherry “treet, to th- building on the

1 The trapeze performance was a? good as
I w..? ever witnc .1 in the city.
While the .e men certainly deserve some
credit for intrepidity and skill upon the
rope, wo are inclined to regard such exhi
bition-, av of doubtful propriety. The
men run a very great risk of falling,
thereby lo in-r their lives or permanently
maiming them ■ Ives. Betndet, to say the
lead, it is unpleasant and undesirable to
have such large crowds of idlers assem
bled in a public thoroughfare for nearly
a whole afternoon.
MACON FI KK DKfA KTUKVT.
Annual Hcport of Chief Engineer It.
A. flsrrfi.
Micov, Ga., January 15tli, 1874.
T- the lion .abb' Mayo.- an' 1
Council of Mae. ,1:
Gentlemen-—I would respectfully uli-
mi t to the consideration of your Honorable
Body the Annual Report of the Chief
Engineer of the Macon Fire Department
for the yeor ending December 31st, 1873.
The losses by lire have been unusually
small, and although the torch of tlie in
cendiary has not entirely spared ns, yet
the damage inflicted lias been compara
tively light. The two first fires in the
year, January 10th and March 18th, em-
?,raced nearly all the loss sustained dur
ing the year. The fire of January lOtli
wa, embraced in last report of the Chief
Engineer, and I only introduce it in this
to make the record for the year complete.
The department has been called out for
fires 17 times during the year, as follows:
January 10th—Frame stores;Fourth and
Plum streets; cause unknown; lo*3 $20,-
000; insurance $17,000.
March 18th—Frame stores; Cotton
avenue and Plum street; cause unknown;
loss $12,000; insurance $S00.
April 21st—Frame kitchen; Pine and
First street* ; cause—defective chimney;
loss, none; insurance, none.
May 11th—Framo store; Cotton ave
nue ; causo—bursting of lamp; loss none;
insurance, none.
May 18tli—Wooden shed; Mulberry,
near Fourth; cause—defective flue; loss
trifling; insurance, none.
Jnnc 12th—Frame house; Poplar, near
Fourth; cause—unknown; lose, $1,200;
insurance, $G00.
July 2J—Frame kitchen;Pino and Third;
cause—stove-pipe; loss, none; insurance,
none.
July Otli—Brick hotel; Cherry, near
Third; cause—barrel shavings; loss, none;
insurance, none.
July 20th—Frame dwelling; Troup
and Hazel; cause — incendiary; loss,
$1000; insurance, $800.
October 30th—Brick dwelling; Pine
and First streets; cause—incendiary;
loss, small; insurance, none.
Novembor 11th—Wooden shop and
dwelling; Third, near Pino; cause—un
known; loss, $2000; insurance, $1,430.
December 14th — Wooden kitchen;
Armory lot; causo — incendiary; loss,
$500; insurance, none.
December 15tli—Wooden dwelling;
Hawthorne and Troup; cause — incen
diary ; loss, $700; insurance, $G00.
December 15th—Wooden stable; Third
ami Arch; cause—incendiary; los3 $50;
insurance, none.
UKCArlTULATJON.
Fires. 8; alarms. 0; losses, $37,450;
insurance, $21,250.
Three of the alarms were caused by
fires outside the city limits, one, April
22.1, destroyed two frame buildings in
“Sandy-bottom.” but its farther spread
was prevented by tho timely arrival of
No. I, their engine-house being much
closer than that of any other company.
APPAJULT0S.
Tlie past year ha? been ail important
one in the history of the Macon Fire De
partment. An entire change from hand
to steam fire engines was completed, and
although the wisdom n f IV" I,:ls
-—... .^nraonaf L>y many friends of the
department, yet the firemen deemed it
essential to a successful discharge of their
duly to equip themselves with the best
and most approved apparatus for extin
guishing fires. Although they had done
good aervico with tlieir old hand engines,
yet they dreaded the breaking out of a
fire in the business portion of the city
where solid brick partition or "Head” walls
were their main dependenco in stopping
the progress of tho flames; nnd they
believe that if a fire should occur largo
enough to test the strength of tho de
partment, the result would show tlie pub
lic how necessary it is to bo prepared for
an emergency that might otherwise de
stroy enough property in an hour to pay
the expenses of the fire department for a
score of years.
Belying upon an honesty oE purpose,
and a sincere desire to promote tlio pub
lic good, they believe that time will vin
dicate tlieir decision, and tlie wisdom of
this change be fully demonstrated.
The three new steamers that were added
to the department during the year are of
light weight, rnado upon tho most ap
proved plans of tho piston engine, and are
first-class in all their appointments. All
the steamers in the department have
been thoroughly tested and afforded uni
versal satisfaction; and being under tlie
control of skilled engineers, backed by a
department whose esprit Ju corps has
never been excelled, your honorable body
may rest assured that your confidence in
their efficiency will not be abused, nor
your liberal support undeserved.
Threo new liose reels were addon to the
department within tho past year, and it
is necessary that three more should be
purchased to allow each company to carry
tlieir full complement of one thousand
feet of hose. One of the reels in possession
of No. 5 does not belong to the city, and al
though recently repaired, the wheels are
too weak for hard service, and are liable
to break at any time.
No. 4 has but one reel, carrying 500
feet of hose. The remaining 500 feet lies
coiled in their engine house, and must
necessarily be of but little service until
another reel is furnished them to carry
the remainder. It was expected by Nos.
2 and 4 to sell their old apparatus and
devote the proceeds to the purchasing of
new reels, but as no actual sale has been
effected, I would recommend the pur
chasing of all necessary equipments bv
the city, and allow them to replace the
amount expended upon sale of the old
equipments.
The hook aud ladder truck lias all the
necessary equipments in good condition,
except the buckets, which are of but little
service, owing to age and hara usage.
The general condition of the apparatus
is very good, and it is believed that the
cost of repairs will be comparatively light.
The greatest contingent expense that will
probably occur in the way of repairs will
be occasioned by the breaking of hose
reels. The hose used by the department
is very heavy, and with our rough streets
and alleys to run over at all hours of the
night, it is a wonder that breakages do
not oftener occur.
HOSE.
The department has now in service
five thousand feet of new carbolized rub
ber hose, three thousand feet of which
was bought during tho past year, and
two thousand feet a short time before.
There are also about one thousand fiv.
hundred feet of rubber hose in tolerably
good condition, for the use of liand en
gines. formerly used by Nos. 2, 4 and 5,
and about 500 feet that is worthless.
I would recommend that the old hose be
disposed of to the best advantage, as it
will gradually decay and become entirely
worthies*.
ESOIX* HOUSES.
, 1,11015 AMD ladder, no. 1.
The truck bouse of this company ha?
been recently repaired, having been se
verely damaged by that terrible cyclone
that swept over our city in Noveuilier lost.
The greater portion of the tin roof was
blown up, and the large front window
broken in by the force of tbe wind. For-
l-;n '•■■'■j no'rain fell at the time, or the
d ii.iag..'ild have been far greater:
V. cn.pne house? were more fortu-
n . . 1 . aped any material damage.
...jYECTION NO. 1.

The I as ha? caused a great portion of
the pmftering to fall, which it i? nsele??
to r. place until the leak has been ponna-
n. ntly topped. The front window aho
need? repairing.
O-'MrLGEE, HO. 2.
Tii Loose of this company is in good
•ndition. The basement ha? L.-.-n re
cently fitted up as a stable where horses
will lx: kept for the purpose of drawing
their uuer when necessary.
TOUHO AMERICA. HO. 3.
Or.e of the window blinds to this house
n ds repairing, nnd the wooden bridge
1 lading into the house from the rear is
so steep a? to render it very difficult for
tlie company to house their engine. Hav
ing h n built some sixteen years since,
and being exposed at all times to the de
caying effects of the weather, the compa
ny believe it to be too unsafe to haul
over it a heavy steamer, as it endangers
the live s of the men required to assist
in poshing it up tho steep ascent.
Should the bridge break in when tlie
engine is surrounded with men, the re
sult would be exceedingly dangerous. I
would earnestly recommend tliat your
honorable body instruct the street con
tractor to remove tho wooden bridge
and a dirt one be made instead, and
make the street in front of the house
level with the street railroad.
MECHANICS NO. 4.
The house of thi3 company is in good
condition—a few of the window blinds
only need slight repairs.
DEFIANCE NO. 5.
Last spring the room occupied by this
company was repaired and rendered much
more comfortable than before, although
tho members experienced much incon
venience in holding their meetings, tho
room being so small that their apparatus
takes up the "renter portion of it. The
largo door to this room needs repairing as
the fastening is very insecure.
CISTERNS.
The brick cisterns that arc supplied
from the reservoirs of the gas works are
generally in good condition, except the
one on Second street, opposite Light
House alley. This one is nearly empty;
and owing to the supply-cock being out
of order the water cannot be turned on,
and as there seems to be a difference of
opinion a3 to whoso duty it i3 to have it
repaired, and being an important cistern,
I would recommend that it be attended
to at once.
Tlie small brick cisterns that are sup
plied by tho drainage from pumps, are
generally kept full so long a3 tho supply
is not cut off, but when that occurs about
one-third of the water leaks out, and as
they were only built to hold G,000 gallons,
it can be readily seen what a limited sup
ply one would afford a steamer in case of
lire.
Tho wooden cisterns on Third and
Cherry, Poplar and Fourth, and Pine and
Fourth streets, bnilt some five years ago,
will not hold water and are worthless for
the purposes intended, and the best rem
edy that can bo suggested is to have
them torn up and rebuilt of brick or filled
entirely up with dirt; but occupying as
they do such important positions, it is
necessary to a proper protection of tho
surrounding property that they bo re
built as substantially and with as little
delay as possible.
VVATEK.
This is a subject of very great im
portance to tho city, and especially to
tlie fire department, for without a suf
ficient quantity in case of a large firo our
splendid engines would be useless and
our firemen powerless to save from de
struction the homes and property of our
citizens. I merely mention the subject,
believing that none feel its importance
more sensibly than yonr honorable body,
but. earnestly hoping that you may de
vise means for adding largely to tho
present supply before the end of the
coming summer.
KEROSENE OIL.
The danger attending tho handling of
this inflammable material is so great, and
is so often tbe causo of disastrous fires,
that proper precautions should be taken
in it? storage and sale. The heaviest
loss sustained during the past year was
supposed to have been caused by kero-
cme oil. As tho consumption of all
burning flnids is increasing largely every
year, and being sold at so many different
points in tho city, I would snggest that
some restrictions, similar to those in re
gard to gunpowder, bo placed upon tho
storage and sale of all inflammable oils;
and that each dealer therein be required
to place a sign in a conspicuous place
outside tho front door, as a notice of the
fact to firemen in case of fire in tho
bnilding.
I wonld also recommend that each
dealer in gunpowder be required to re
place tlieir ohl signs with new ones before
tho letters become entirely obliterated
from age and exposure to the weather.
. PROTECTIVE FORCE.
Tlie firemen, while on duty at fire3, are
greatly interfered with in tho discharge
of their duty, by the large crowds of
idlers that usually congregate, either
from curiosity or for the purpose of steal
ing, and as it is necessary that all prop
erty taken from buildings cither burning
or in danger thereof should bo fully pro
tected, I would respectfully recommend
that a “protective force” be organized,
whose duty it shall bo to establish a line of
guards aronnd the fire, and not allow any
one in the lines but firemen and those
directly interested and engaged in saving
property. Tho police force have dis
charged their duty in this matter to the
best of tlieir ability, but. owing to their
limited number, are unable to afford full
protection. I would suggest that our
military companies be requested to or
ganize this “force” (as I believe their
charters require them to send a guard ta
all fires) to act in conjunction with the
regular police force, and have the same
power to make arrests. If no other good
would result from such an organization
than merely keeping the crowd out of the
way of the firemen it would enable the
latter to perform tlieir laborious duty
with less trouble and delay, but the
amount of property annually saved would
bo very great, and I hope to see at the
next fire a guard sufficient to drive these
jackals from their prey.

BEGAN BUSINESS IN IS-!?,
And now. after a sueccssful career of twenty-seven
years, asks you to consider its claims for your pat
ronage, and submits tlio- following Eight Good
Ucaaona why you should insure with it:
1st. Because it lias submitted to the test ot
time, the severest test that can he applied, and
now wears the laurel of approval Ik-stowed by
thousands upon whom it has conferred lasting
lienefits; and all along its pathway may be seen
comfortable homes tilled with happy families,
whose lives would bo but stories of woe and want,
lmt for the prudent rare of loved ones dead mid
gone, who procured Policies in the Penu Mutual
2d. Because by prudence and econom y the Com
pany has been enabled through twenty-seven
years to furnish to its policy holders cheaper life
insurance than any other company in the world.
Sd. Because it is a purely mutual Company.
Each iKiliey-liolder is a membe of the Comiiaii'v,
entitled to all its advantages and privileges, it
chapes you enough for- insurance to provide
against all unusual and excessive losses from epi
demic diseases; and not one cent more than pru
dence requires, and ir at tlie end of tlie year it lias
not met any extraordinary losses (which it Ins
escaped tliu3 far) the whole surplus is returned
to tlie policy-holders in reduction of premium.
Iipany which charges less violates that
li of precaution which cxjierience lias
taught is necessary, and is not safe it its losses
hotild reach tlio maximum referred to above.
4tli. Because from its beginning its ratio of ex-
_ mses to total income has been as low as anv
eoinpany In the world, and much lower than ail
cept ono or two of tho oldest and strongest
lniianies.
5th. Because there is no company of its age in
the world which has nslargca percentagoof assets
*a liabilities, and very few of any ago which are
s equals in this respect.
0th. Because it lias declared more dividends in
lunbcr, and of a larger average percentage, than
any other company in the world: For example,
policy No. 10. for $5„000, has lieen paid to the
,f a Philadelphia merchant, upon which
three dividends had been declared, aver-
7th. Call on the agent and lie will prove to you,
