Brief Summary of Interesting
Happenings Culled at Random.
Saved Money On Tag*.
By ordering from a Philadelphia
firm 4,000,000 fertilizer tags during
the summer of last year, the depart
ment of agriculture has saved the state
several hundred dollars. The recent
rise in the price of materials has af
fected paper to a great extent and the
tags which were ordered by the state
department in the summer for 33 cents
a 1,000 cannot be made at present for
less than 50 cents per 1,000.
The contract made by Commissioner
Stevens was with the Reyburn Manu
facturing Company, of Philadelphia,
and although the majority of the fer
tilizer tags have not been forwarded
from the factory, a large number of
them are on the way and the contract
cannot be avoided, even should the
Philadelphia manufacturers desire to
do so.

Another Gift From French.
Aaron French, the prominent Penn
sylvania millionaire who has taken
such an active interest in the progress
of the Georgia School of Technology,
has made it possible by another dona
tion for the doors of the school to be
opened to applicants for admission to
the sub-apprentice class.
The gift of Mr. French is a direct
result of the action of the last legisla
ture in refusing to make au appropria
tion to increase the facilities of the
school, and the total amount of his do
nations to reach SIO,OOO, the previous
sums being to the textile department
which was made possible through his
kindness and which was named after
him when completed.

Hobbs Appointed Judge.
Governer Candler has appointed
Richard Hobbs, of Dougherty county,
to the judgeship of the city court of
Albany to fill the unexpired term of
Judge C. B. Wooten, recently resign
ed. The appointment of Judge Hobbs
is made until the meeting of the next
general assembly, when the appoint
ment of the judge of the city court of
Albany will be ratified by the senate.
The resignation of Judge Wooten
was generally regretted by the mem
bers of the Albany bar on account of
the excellent service he had rendered
the city. The appointment of Judge
Hobbs was recommended by many of
the strongest men of Dougherty coun
ty and iu naming him Governor Cand
ler stated that he was satisfied his best
services would be given to the position
of judge of the city court.

Good Showing For Bank.
The stockholders of the Columbus
National bank held their aunual meet
ing a few days ago, at which good
showings were made. There were no
chauges in the officers or directorships.

Pension* Being Paid.
Last Monday morning Pension Com
missioner Lindsey begun the payment
of pensions to indigent confederate
soldiers and in a few xveeks the $268,-
000 appropriated to this class by the
legislature will have been distributed
among the veterans of the state.
Under the head of indigent pension
ers comes those who are afflicted with
age, blindness and poverty, and to
each indigent the state will pay the
sum of S6O. Commissioner Lindsey
some weeks ago forwarded to each or
dinary in the state blanks upon which
must be written the application for
pension. These blanks have many of
them been filled out and returned to
the pension commissioner, aud those
whose applications have been accepted
will be paid with warrants on the
treasury.
Before retiring from office in De
cember ex-Commissioner Johnson es
timated that for the present year the
sum appropriated by the legislature to
the indigent class of pensioners would
fall at least $30,000 short of the amount
needed. At the last session the legis
lature added $30,000 to the $38,000
appropriated at the first session and
every indication points to the fact that
the full amount will have to be used.
For the last few r years the number
of indigeuts has increased rapidly and
the increase will continue until the
old veterans reach that age when the
death rate among them will be heavy.
The increase is expected, as a matter
of fact, for the next two or three years,
aud after that a gradual decline is ex
pected. The appropriation for indi
gents in 1890 was $237,000, showing
an increase iu appropriation for this
yvar over last of $31,000.
Following the indigents the widows
of Confederate soldiers will be paid,
and after them will come the invalids.
The amount appropriated for the
payment of the widows is estimated to
be at least $12,500 in excess of the
amount needed for the year. This
class is the only one that has so far
shown any decrease.
* * •
Teachers are Paid.
State school Commissioner Glenn
has completed the work of sending out
$556,000 to the common school teach
ers of the state. This amount repre
sents tne salaries of ueorgia teacaera
in the common schools for the last two
months of the school session of 1899,
and amounts to two-fifths of the total
appropriation made by the legislature
towards schools.
The payment of teachers for the
last two months of a year has for a
number of years been delayed until
January of the following year, on ac
count of the application of the rule to
pay the pensions of the state before
anything else.
Last year the payment of teachers
for the first month of teaching began
in April, and ttiere is every reason to
believe that this year the payment will
start before that time.

Pushing the Cotton Claims,
A recnet Washington dispatch says:
Congressman Maddox, of Georgia,
and Cooper, of Texas, who have intro
duced bills relating to cotton claims
from the Confederate states, there be
ing $11,000,000 already in the treasu
ry for this purpose, will urge an imme
diate hearing.
Southern congressmen sre being
flooded with letters regarding these
claims, and it is understood that Gov
ernor Candler of Ueorgia has written
all the southern governors urging
united effort to secure some desirable
legislation along this line. The bills
in congress are to extend the limita
tion two years, enabling claimants to
file their claims before the court of
claims within that time.

Will Ho Uniform Primary*
In the nomination of judges and so
licitors for the various judicial circuits
of Georgia, the right of choice will be
exercised by the people of each circuit
at a uniform primarv and not by a
convention composed of delegates from
the different counties of the circuit.
This important point involving the
interpretation of the constitutional
amendment, taking the election out of
the province of the legislature and
placing it iu the hands of the people,
has praotically been determined upon
by the members of the state executive
committee, the large majority of whom
take the position that the nomination
of judge and solicitor iu each circuit
should be settled by the people at a
cirouit primary.

Rome to Have Nexv Depot,
The Southern railway has com
pleted arrangements for the com
mencement of work on a large freight
depot in Rome. The structure will
cover an entire square and cost SIOO,-

More Factories For Macon.
There has been a persistent rumor
afloat in Macon for several days that
negotiations are on foot to estabtish
two new cotton factories in the city.
The movement is said to be backed
by several of the leading and wealthi
est citizens of Macon aud it is under
stood that preparations for immedi
ately commencing work in the erec
tion of these mills will begin at an
early date.

Brumby Monument Fund*
The manner in which the Brumby
monument fuud has been taken up by
the people of the stete gives every
reason to hope that the final response
will be such as will justify a figure of
heroic proportions.
Capital Stock Increased.
The Columbus Power Company has
increased its capital stock from $200,-
000 to $300,000, this being decided
upon at a meeting of the stockholders
in Savannah the past week. ' The ad
ditional stock—sloo,ooo —has already
been subscribed. The original stock
of the company was $lOO,OOO and it
was increased to $200,000 and now
the magnitude of the enterprise makes
necessary this further increase.

Naw Telephone Company.
It is highly probable that Atlanta
will soon have another telephone com-
Eauy in operation. A petition has
een filed in the superior court, asking
for a charter for the “Commercial Tel
ephone and Telegraph Company,” and
signed by a number of Atlanta and
northern business men as promoters of
the contemplated enterprise.
INDUCEMENTS FOR NEOROES.
Large Numbers May Be Needed In the
Hawaiian Islands.
J. C. Leftwicb, the colored Repub
lican leader, has just returned to his
home iu Montgomery,. Ala., from a
six weeks’ trip to the Hawaiian
islands, where he went to investigate
the labor conditions there for a big
sugar syndicate.
If his report is favorable, big in
ducements will be offered southern
negroes to go over to the Hawaiian
and Samoan island sugar fields. The
result of his observations will not be
given out until the syndicate has his
report, which will no doubt have an
important bearing on Alabama labor
conditions.
Quarantine Snit Dismissed.
The United States supreme court
dismissed the suit in the state of
Louisiana against the state of Texas
and its health officers, involving the
right of the latter state to quarantine
60 rigorously against the former as was
done during the recent prevalence of
yellow fever in Now Orleans.
