rhild Reported in School.
Columbus,' Os., Fet*. 14—The sx-
; nt to which the negro children In
le rural districts of Georgia are lak-
«g advantage of the public school
rstem and getting the fullest educa-
on possible Is but little reallied by
eople who dwell In the cities the
tar round.
A few day* ago a Colgmbui gentle-
tan had occasion to take a country
ip of *ome length. Along the road-
tie he me* group after group of ne-
ro children going to school, and only
ne crowd of white children during
ne entire trip. The proportion of
“LITTLE-DUCHESS" COMING
negro school children to white that
he saw during the trip was fully five
or six to one. He was greatly im-
pressed by the incident.
The education that the negroes re
ceive may not be .thorough, on .ac
count of their own .mental .limita
tions, but the majority will doubtless
be able to "read and write and ex
pound the constitution" which Is
their ambition...In case the suffrage
of the negro should be placed square
ly upon the basis of educational qua!-
ification, the efforts of the negro race
to get all the benefits of education
would, doubtless, be reduced.

A SPECIAL MEETING.
Commission Will Give Hearing to
Lumber Men on 27th.
A special meeting of the railroad
commission will be held on February
27, in order to hear a petition filed
i 1 by Judge Spencer Atkinson In be-
| half of the lumber dealers In Bruna-
| wick, dealers In Savannah also Joln-
! ing In the petition,
j The lumber dealers object to an
* order recently passed by the South*
* eastern Car Service association cut-
! ting down the time allowed for un-
| loading cars of lumber from five to
four days. This association assumes
> charge of demurrage matters, and up
to a few weeks ago allowed shippers
i of lumber five days In which to un-
: load cars at port points, principally,
j The regulations of the railroad
I commission allowed only two days
for unloading cars, but the shippers
have always followed the rules of
the car service association because
It gives them more time for unload
ing shipments at ports.
| Just what action the railroad com’
mission will take is not certain, be*
j cause they have one regulation
touching the matter, while the car
service people have another. Lum
ber men contend that cutting off one
day works a great hardship on them.
[arvie Jordan Tells of j
-> The Plans to Boost Prices. 1
Atlanta, Feb. 14—President Haprie
Jordan, of the Southern Cotton asso
ciation, has made the following an
nouncement:
"I have secured an agreement with
a syndicate of eastern capitalists,
headed by E. R. Thomas, to take
five thousand bales of middling. cot
ton from southern planters at the
minimum price of 13 cents a pound,
deliverable at interior points, by or
before July 1, 190e, the deal to be
closed as soon as option on the syndi
cates requirements shall have been
secured.
"The agreement further .provides
for the taking of all cotton ready for
market next Augusta and September
from the crop of 1906 at the then
market next August and September
minimum price fixed by the Southern
Cotton association.... This agree
ment is not intended to affect holders
vyho are demanding a maximum of
15 cents at present.. . New York bank
ers ^re prepared to finance fully all
southern bankers in assisting ty>lders
of cotton for higher prices. Option
contracts will be forwarded upon ap
plication to all cotton growers." ...
The German government profited
Mh*1 yonr over $16,000,000 hv its pos-
ml, telegraphic and telephone sys
Perhaps some of the Senator* who
take a fatherly interest In the *trug'
gling trans-Contineutal railroad,
would be Quite pleased to cut off
both of Chairman Shonts' sol trie*—
one a* canal commissioner andl the
other as railway president.
When Trains are Delayed.
Tho Florida Railroad Commission
recently Imposed a fine Of |300 upon
the Seaboard Air Line* railroad; be
cause It failed to post notices of the
delay of a passenger train at Lake
City, Greenville and Baldwin, Fla.
This has revived the subject in
this state and has led to many*
threats against railroads. Division
Superintendent Bennett, of the At
lantic Coast Line has had his atten
tion called to failures on the divis
ion and he has promised ro make a
thorough investigation. The local
agents or operators generally post
the Information as It comes from the
dispatchers, and it seems tbSt the
dispatchers are the ones who need a
"jacking up" on thiB line.
Frequently a minute is worth much
tv> a business man and he could do a
lot of work on the delay of a train if
he only know It was delayed.
Killed Doves by Hundreds.
In the dove shoot at Dowling's field
several miles above here yesterday,
there were killed 1,079 birds, one him
dred and ninety of them having be- n
killed by one man.
Quite a large crowd went out from
this city, several hours being spent
In the baited field killing tne birds.
The incesftant rattle of the guns
sounded like a battle.
During the fusjlnde a few str.iy
shot struck Dr. Wilson, of this city,
in the face, penetrating the skin.
His Injuries were not serious though
tho shot had to be picked from his
skin..
A man was sent to the asylum re
cently because he wanted the moon.
The people who want tho earth aro
still outside.
