At a meeting of the board of educa
tion Thursday afternoon, Professor W.
M. Slaton was formally elected super
intendent of the public schools of At
lanta, to succeed his father, Major W.

The election was only a formality, as
the real election was held when the
committee on schools and teachers met
last week and decided whom to recom
mend for the different positions.
Professor L. M. Landrum, was re
elected assistant superintendent and
Professor W. F.' Dykes, principal of the
Boys’ High School.
The entire report of the committee
was adopted by the board. It was de
cided to name the new school Ht the
corner of Grant and Pavilion *»treets,
for which a contract has been let; the
W. F. Slaton School. Miss Agnes Mor.
gnn was elected principal.
Miss Ella M. SmIUe was electedprin
cipal of the new school which will be
erected at the corner of Hunt street
and North avenue.

The following resignations were ten
dered and accepted:
Miss Allte Mulllngs, third grade. Da
vis Street school; Miss Annie Payne,
who was granted a leave of absence a
year ago; Miss Beulah Llebman, of
sixth grade A, Crew Street; Miss Lena
Guttman, seventh grade A, of Crew
Street, and Miss Katharine Guerard. of
the Girls* High School. Miss Nannie
Jones, of first grade A, of Fraser Street,
was granted a leave of absence until
the close of the term.
Major Slaton wgf elected superin
tendent emeritus, and the board In
dorsed the proposition before the city
council which confers upon‘the board
the power to retlr* upon half pay
teachers who have served twenty-five
consecutive years In the public schbols.
and who may. through physical Infirmi
ties, become Incapacitated for work.
To E. M. Mitchell was referred tbe
securing of temporary quarters for the
grades of the North Avenue school, and

Had the aid of the pardon board been
refuted and the sentence of the court
executed, Will Johnson, the negro con
victed of assaulting Mrs. Georgia Hem
bree near her home, In Battle Hill, last
August, would have stood upon the
gallows and paid the penalty for his
crime today, Friday.
Twice has the convicted negro seen
the day set for his execution dawn,
with the assurance that he would live
to Bee the evening shadows gather un
less Providence called him to account.
For twice has the day of his execution
-been fixed by Judge Roan, of the supe
rior court, and twice have the higher
courts Interfered and granted a respite.
In the first Instance Johnson's case
as appealed to the supreme court
and a stay of execution was granted
until that body could pass upon the
Judgment of the lower court. The de
cision of the lower court was affirmed
by the higher power, three members of
the court declaring that Johnson should
hang, while two rendered dissenting
opinions. Johnson waa then resen
tenced and the day of his execution was
set for Friday, May 24.
Again the aid of a still hlghor power
was Invoked and the attorneys repre
senting the negro laid the case before
Che pardon board. The evidence to
prove Johnson Innocent which tho at
torneys laid before the commission,
coupled with the petition for clemency
signed by Solicitor Hill and many of
the Jurors who found Johnson guilty,
caused the pardon board to grant a res
pite until the case can be further In
vestigated.
The board ha* not yet taken action
In the case and some weeks may elapse
■before Johnson's fate Is known,.
Attorneys Alex Stevens and Walter
McKIreath, who represent Jdhnson by
appointment of the court, are convinced
that he Is Innocent of the crime with
which he Is charged, and Lave made a
brave and determined effort to gWe
him the benefit of the doubt and aave 1
his life.
