Atlanta. Ga„ Nov. IL— To-day's session
of :hc House was more impor;ant on ac
count of the new measure introduced than
the accomplishment of results by iassing
bi Is.
Messrs White of Dougherty and Dodson
of Sumter made eulogistic speeches on
the life and work of the late Charles F.
Crisp, and thereby succeeded in securing
the passage of a joint resolution appro
priating &•> to buy a portrait of him to
be hung in the capitol. The resolution
was accompanied by another in the form
of a memorial, and a joint committee will
be entrusted with the duty of procuring
the portrait if the Senate concurs in the
action of the house.
A message was received from the gov
ernor informing the general assembly of
the destruction of the negro ward of the
lunatic asylum, and asking that the asy
lum committee of the legislature meet
the trustees at a meeting to be held at
Mi'dedgeville next Monday, the 15th of this
month.
An effort to revive the omnibus pension
bill, which was voted down by the House
on yesterday, failed signally, and a bill
by Mr. Calvin to make penal the hiring
of misdemeanor convicts to private par
ties shared a like fate.
Mr. Calvin's bill making women eligible
as assistant physicians at the lunatic asy
lum passed, with amendments by the
committee requiring them to go into a
competitive examination for the place. The
bill appropriating $2,000 to replace worn
out county maps in the secretary of
state’s office, was passed, and the Thom
as bill to admit women as students in
the state university, which was a special
order, was postponed a week.
The bill for the election of judges and
solicitors by the people was favorably re
ported. and one for the repeal of the reg
istration act was reported adversely.
Among the new hills introduced were
measures to repeal the registration law;
to give the railroad commission authority
to make schedules; to add WO,OOO to the
indigent pension appropriations; to re
quire juries to fix penalties where discre
tion is given by law; to fix the common
school term of six months; to establish
the "Wiregrass” judicial circuit, compos
ed of the counties of Dooly, Wilcox, Early
and Worth; to reduce jury panels from
forty-eight to thirty-six.
Mr. Blaylock, the economist and reform
er of the House. Is the author of the pen
sion appropriation bill.
Mr. Berrie of Whitfield Introduced a bill
to prohibit the manufacture and sale of
liquor in the state, which is another prohi
bition bill.
The prohibition issue is not settled yet.
dlspite the action of the Senate on the
Turner bill, and it will take some days in
the House to quiet it there, the prohibi
tionists being determined to try again In
the Senate, and a bill can be gotten
through the House.
Mr. Nicholas of Wayne offered a bill
making SSO the fee of a solicitor general
In gaming cases, and Mr. Cook of Oconee
a bill requiring that Jury commissioners
shall embrace one from each militia dis
trict on recommendation of the grand jury.
Mr. Eush of Mitchell introduced a bill
abolishing the board of county commis
sioners of that county, and Representa
tive Law of Liberty a bill providing for
co-education In the negro college at Savan
nah, and appropriating SO,OOO to build a
dormitory there for female students.
Mr. Brannen of Bulloch introduced a dis
pensary bill for Statesboro, and Mr. Pearce
of Houston a bill amending the code so as
to require the prosecution of croppers, or
farm laborers in the county, where the con
tract is violated.
The Senate reconsidered Us action In
passing the Turner bill making it a mis
demeanor for persons to wear the badge
of a secret society when not a member
thereof, if their purpose is to defraud.
A bill providing for a state board of
dental examiners, introduced by Mr. Dun
wody. was passed. It does not affect den
tists now entitled to practice, but all fu
ture dentists must stand examination by
the board. The members of the board are
to be appointed by the governor, upon
recommendation of the state dental socie
ty. The society Is empowered to name ten
practicing dentists, five of whom shall be
members of the state dental society, and
five non-members. From these the gov
ernor shall appoint five persons, who will
compose the board of examiners. The
members will hold office for the term of
one, two, three, four and five years, ac
cording to their appointment and commis
sion. The present memiiers of the isyard,
which are provided for by a bill, are; J.
H. Coyle of ThomasviUe, A. C. Bouton of
Savannah, B. H. Catching of Atlanta. H.
H. Johnson of Macon and D. D. Atkinson
of Brunswick. These will hold office until
the expiration of their terms. The bill
bas the unanimous backing of the state
dental society.
. By requestof Senator Hopkins, his bill
providing for the election of the Judges
and solicitors by the people, was made
the special order of to-morrow week.
The bill by Mr. Mansfield of Mclntosh,
legalizing prize fights, was refiorted ad
versely by the committee. Mr. Mansfield
says he will call the bill up to-morrow on
a motion to disagree to the report of the
committee, ami have the roll called, wo
as to put the "sporting men” on record.
Mr Fogarty of Richmond, the author
of the bill reducing the school fund sk>o -
00. which is adversely reitorted, will call
that up to-morrow. He said to-night he
did not think there was any chance to
pass It. so there is no danger of tin- pro
posed butchering of the educational fund
Tor next year.

Apollinaris
(“THE QUEEN OF TABLE WATERS”)
BEWARE OF SUBSTITUTIONS .
FACULTY NOW IN THE FIGHT.
REPLY' TO THE BLALOCK REPORT
SENT TO THE HOUSE.
The University Professor* Deny That
They Are Vnfrlrndly to the Agri
cultural College—Fart* Cited, to
Show Their Effort* to Make It a
Saeee**—Chancellor Boggs Addgexs
e* the Legislature at Night—An Ad
verse Report of a Drastic Nature
Expected From Pope Brown.
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 11.—The faculty of
the state university takes strong excep
tions to the statement in the Blalock com
mittee report “that the general disposi
tion of the university faculty is unfriend
ly to the agricultural college because they
say it is unnecessary, and, therefore, it
does not receive their support."
The exceptions were put in writing by
the faculty and went to the legislature to
day. In this communication, which was
read to the House, the faculty says:
“The faculty has always realized the
great possibilities for good of the chair of
agriculture, both in the work ofthe uni
versity and its influence upon the state.
In support of this opinion we beg to pre
sent the following facts;
“L A course of study is provided for
students In agriculture, leading to the de
gree of bachelor of agricultural, which was
shaped in accordance with the wishes of
the professor of agriculture.
“2. The requirements for entrance into
the course are such as, in the Judgment
of the faculty, best conform to the edu
cational status of the state, and yet.
Inasmuch, as applicants have been found
whose attainments were not sufficient to
enable them to meet these requirements,
extra classes have been formed, entailing
extra labor upon regular officers of the
university, in order to fit these applicants
for the regular studies of the class. But
further, as the faculty found that there
were students who were unable to spend
a year in college, or whose attainments
were too small to admit them to this reg
ular course, the board of trustees, at the
suggestion of the faculty, established a
short course for farmers’ sons, Including
the months of January, February and
March, at which time they could best be
spared from the farm. For these students
there are no entrance requirements, and
they are exempt from all the usual fees.
Special classes are formed to meet the
lack of preparation in such Btudents.
“4. During the session of 1892-3, the fac
ulty, in order to stimulate Interest in ag
riculture among the students, suspended
exercises for one hour, requiring the entire
body of students to attend such lectures
as might be presented by the professor of
agriculture. These lectures are appointed
to be delivered twice a week for six weeks,
the Individual members of the faculty
readily relinquishing their regular ap
pointments and attending the same.
“The university faculty expresses its
hearty approval of the educational policy
for the state college of agriculture and
the mechanical arts outlined in the report
of its president.”
This part of the Blalock committee re
port. according to ex-Gov. Boynton, who
was on that committee, was based upon
a statement made by Prof. Hunnicutt,
who fills the agricultural chair In the
university, the professsor making the im
pression on the committee that the uni
versity faculty was dead against the de
partment of agriculture.
To-day Mr. Oliver of Burke introduced a
bill in the House, taking the $30,000 of the
land script fund and the Morrill fund
away from the university and applying it
to a separate college of agriculture, in ac
cordance with the Blalock report.
To-night Chancellor Boggs of the univer
sity delivered his annual address to the
legislature, defending the institution in an
able manner and replying to all the criti
cisms that have been levelled against it
both by the Blalock committee and from
other directions.
The university is a critical Issue with
the legislature. A most determined fight
Is being made upon it, and it would not be
surprising if it should receive a death blow
before the present body of statesmen Is
through with it.
Another adverse report of a very drastic
nature is expected to be made any day by
Pope Brown, chairman of the special com
mittee, that was sent over to investigate
it. The report is now made up, but ef
forts are being made to modify it. Major
Meldrim, a member of the committee, will
not subscribe to the harsh criticisms of
the university contained in it, and unless
it can be modified he will make a minority
report, and in part may do so anyway.
