THE LFGISLATURE TO TACKLE IT Comrohstoner SrsdvTsll Gives tlse Result ofthe Act allowing County Boards to Operate Schools at Any Time They See Proper, Atlanta, Sept. 23.—(SpeoluH.)-One of the -most Important measures in con nection with the common School eystem to be brought before the -next general assembly will be how 'to-bridge over the difficulty caused toy the Change In the school year. Formerly -the school year and 'the calendar year were coincident, -but since July 1 tihe school year la to be run from July to July, -oo as to corre spond with Dhto 11 seal year of the schools, Et’waa ortglnlally Intended for .the schools to have an Interregnum of sit months, from January 1 to July of the present, year, but the aval was amended by allowing county boards of education -to operate the schools a t any time they saw proper, and the sum of 3300,000 was borrowed from the other funds In the.-treasury to help pay off the teachers. Tho amendment alluded 'to virtually .made the school year eighteen months long, extending from Jamaary 1, 1894 to June 30, 1895. The appropriations were not increased, and. In the opinion of the state school com missioner and the state board of edu cation, were only sufficient to operate -the schools for a term of live months. Ooun'ty -boards 'had the right to select a public term of one hundred days any time during the period of the extended school year—eighteen months. There can, however, be but one public term of live months, because the money ap propriated iwua only srufflolent for 100 diays. Besides, inhere would then be 'two public school terms in the same school year. "One hundred and twenty-one coun ties uivaUett themselves of the oppor tunity of operating their schools In ad vance or the school year," said Com missioner Bradiwel'l today. “Some counties operated the entire live months before July, while Others occupied fifty days in the early spring urnd fifty days to summer. .About twelve counties •waited until July, but those counties wfl-1 complete the 'full term' of five .months by Christmas. "It wilt be seen that every county In the state will be without schools the first half of ’95 unless the general As sembly will make a special approprla-* tton to cover -this period of six mtoirtihs. It Is contended that the authority to borrow applied only to Alprll, 1894, and does not apply to April, 1895. Numer ous retMutuons have been filed with me to be presented to She legislature ask ing for a special appropriation of 3300,- 000, it -least for ’this period, which la not provided for. "It looks as 4f this ought to be done, irwe' afe entitled .to 31,200,000 for iwelvo months, an Increase of the time »lx iriohsha longer ought to Increase the fund at least 3300,000.” The school fund for the present year was about 3130,000. The first quarterly payment was, In round numbers, 3470,- 000, 'the second quarterly payment 3148,- 000, and the third quarterly payment will be about 365,000. SOLICITOR BROWN'S CARD. Tho People on the Vivo For a Se rious Collision. Atlanta, Sept. 22a—<Spo«.*Ial.)—Interest In the Crowley muriler, which has been running higher each day slneo it oc curred, was displaced today by tho trouble between Solicitor Gcorgn Brown of tho Bluo Ridge circuit anil W. C. Uleun and C. D. Maddox, tho well- known lawyers. Solicitor. Brown's card, published this morning, tu which he denounced Messrs. Glenn & Maddox In scathing terms, was discussed toy everybody, and throughout tho day a serious collision was momentarily ex pected. Solicitor Brown remained at tho Kimball house most of the day, receiv ing'a number of frieuds in Ills room, among them Ills father and brother. Ills avowed purposj In remaining In tho city today was to personally await tho result of his publication. During the day Messrs. Gleufi & Mad dox went about ’.hold usual business. When upprunened by uewspaper men both declined to be Interviewed. Mr. Glenn said only that as ho bad Ignored Mr. Brown In tho jiast, ho would Ignore him in tho future. Mr. Maddox had uot determined whether he would reply to the attack through the press or not. The most warlike demonstration was on tho part of Col. French Strange, editor of tho Gazette. Ho was re ported to bo on tho hunt for Solicitor Brown, but matters were smoothed out so far as he was concerned by Solicitor Brown writing him p. note withdrawing anything be had slid reflecting upon Editor Strange. THE GRE3S-rNMAN CONTEST. lAtlartta, Sept. 23.—(SpecWl.)—The contest for tot Sixth ward seuft In. coun cil, between'Mr. Hugh Inman and Mr. O. V. Gross, yesterday developed a fejiture that tot.it caused a gxxl deal of talk among politicians of all grades. Mr. toman. who Is one of 'the weulth- taK mon In tho city, was approached by the canvassing commUstce, Entrust ed with the task of raising funds for toe state campaign for a subscription, lie has aflways < been considered a •uiundh and liberal Democrat,' apd the commttxee bad no doubt that he would go ddfen Into tola pocket as become a good Democrat with a ‘■bar’!.’’ But it seems Mr. Inman. Is mad with the Democratic party, and not only refused to, contribute to the oairjpalgn fund, but ghve Democracy such a frost that the local workmen (have not recovered yet. "I won’t give you. ai nickel.’’ (aid Cartdld.Jie Iran in. "I have nothing to thank the Democratic pary for—I owe it no allegiance. The Democratic party put u tax upon my income, and I re fuse to give my money to help a party that opposes my tmcre»u." Mr, Grass gave the committee ISO. When the atory Iesked out today It caused a strong feeling against Sir. Inman. A few weeks ago Mr. Inman wanted to be mayor.

GRAND STREET PBRADE TODAY \ Two Performances, One at Noon and the Other Beginning at 7 O'clock— Secretary Smith nnd Parly Invited to Occupy a Box, The ctrcue Is to town today and in consequence thereof the small boy, the big boy and many of the grown up boys, together with email girls, big girls grown up girls and even old boys and girls of all co.’crro and conditions are happy. The circus arrived yesterday morn ing at 4 o’clook and It was not long be fore the ten la were up and everything to readiness for today’s performances and otreet parade. Thousands of peo ple availed themselves of the Invitation extended by Sells 'Brothers to see a por tion to! the circus^yesterday, and all of them were pleased with what they anw. In fact, they were more than pleased and -those who had thought Sells Broth ers did not have a real big, flnst-class circus were agreeably disappointed. The street parade will begin at 10 o’clook sharp -this morning and the pro* cession will move along the following route; 'Will atari from show grounds, foot of Pine street, ait 10 o’clock sharp; Pine to Fourth, to Poplar, to Third, to Mul berry to Second, to Cherry -to Cotton ovenue. to Plum, street, to First street, to Pooler to Second, to Cherry, to Fourth, 'to Pine, to show grounds. The afternoon oerformanco will be gin shortly after the street parade and the night performance will begin at 7 o’clock: doors bperi”at 6. The night performance will conclude at 9 o'clock so that everybody can come un towel 'n time to hear Secretary Hoke Smith and Hon. W. Y. Atkinson apeak at the Wadley monument. For this con cession the Ytourur Men's Democratic Club and -the citizens generally are un der many obligations to Sells Brothers, who, when called on by President Blount and Mayor Pro Tern Sperry yes terday,'offered to make any concession In their power for the success of tho speaking, even jibing so far ae to offer their tent. When It Is remembered that the Sells 'Brothers are. strangers and have no Interest whatever In Georgia politics and that -the early dismissal of tho audlcnoe at the c|rcus Is a pecu niary loss to them, the public will read ily see where It Is under obligations to Sells Brothers. Secretary Hoke .Smith will arrive to tho city at 11 o'clock and Sells Brothers request the Telegraph to extend to him and party an Invitation to attend tho circus ns their guests and occupy a private bbx -that will bo Specially pre pared for them. This Invttatlonewlll also be delivered to the secretary in person today. . The street Parade will be one of the greatest. If not, the greatest, ever seen in this city and will be witnessed by thousands of people. POINTS ABOUT PEOPLE.
