There were five applicants, as follows: Steve Turner, H. H. Kemp, H. C. Scog. gins, W. G. Grogan and Lewis Pearson. The board met and elected Steve Tur ner. who, In point of service, Is ons of the oldest teachers In the county. Col onel R. E. L. Whitworth, the retiring commissioner, has been untiring In his work for the betterment of the schools. Senator J. W. Taylor, representing! the "Thirty-sixth district, has the dis tinction of being the oldest member of the board of trustees of the Georgia 8chool for the Deaf. He was appointed by Governor Northen and has served continuously sines. Senator Taylor hoa never missed a meeting of the board, and as he Is usually named on the board of visitors, has always discharged that obligation. He has the old-fashioned Idea that a duty Imposed Is a duty to be faithfully discharged. His Interest In the School for the Deaf Is a very genuine and sincere one. Senator Taylor Is rather a stickler for the proprieties, too.' The other day he noticed that tt\p senate committee was headed "Academy for the Deaf and Dumb.” He Immediately arose and asked that it be changed to its correct name—The School for the Deaf. “Georgia has 309 deaf boys and girls knocking at our doors tor admittance," he said recently. “And I can conceive of no higher duty than that we should provide accommodations and facilities for educating every such unfortunate.” A bill to give this Institution $50,000 has been Introduced In the house by the Floyd representatives. This appro priation is for Increased dormitory fa. cHItles and needed repairs. Wednesday Secretary of State Phil Cook began supplying the legislature with mineral water under a resolution passed by that body. Wednesday was frightfully hot and the big ten-gallon carboys disappeared rapidly. Wednes day afternoon for four hours the hall was packed with people to hear the dls- cueston on the temperance bill. When a count of the empty carboys was com pleted Wednesday night it was found that the thirsty law-makers, prohibi tionists and antis, had absorbed exactly 155 gallons of mineral water In the one day.

New Neckwear Great line of new silk four- in-hands at 50 cents—smartest patterns to choose from—wide variety. More than one poll In the senate chamber Is shy on hirsute adornment, but to Senator E. P. Dobbs, of Marietta, belongs the glory of the only caput unadorned by even a single hair. His finely shaped head gleams a shining beacon In the second row to the right of and facing the president’s stand. It Is polished, smooth, offering a tantalis ing surface to lu**e the fancy of the foraging fly. But for all that, it Is a mighty well-poised head, crowded with good gray matter and set firmly upon a sturdy pair of shoulders. Governor Smith rides to and from the cap!to! dally In a light single bug gy. driven by a colored groomsman. He will probably provide himself with an official carriage and team later. When Governor Terrell retired he sold his victoria and handsome bays to wealthy Jacksonville (Fla.) man. In advancing his reasons for making the prohibition law effective In 1909, instead of 1908, Senator Brock, of the Forty-fourth district, said: "In every political ambition I have had for years 1 have been fought bit terly by a man who has recently built a splendid distillery In the district which I represent. He has fought me with all the power In him. But I would not seek revenge by confiscating his prop erty without giving him an opportunity to meet conditions (he best he might, i don't fight that way." The belief Is growiug in legislntlve linlls that. Instead of sn lucreast In the pension and school funds. It will become necessary to reduce both. Just at this time the general assembly SENATOR J. W. TAYLOR. He is the oldest member of the trustees of the Georgia School for the Deaf. It Is understood that a movement Is under way In ttie legislature to reiuovo disabili ties for military service In the state from former Captain Robert M. flitch. It will be remembered that growing out ot the States- Hitch was tried by courtmnrtlal and fc Uen re-«*nterlng the state service. This lug was approved by Governor Terrell. Ills friends will now seek to have the disabili ties removed by legislative euactraent. It comes from authoritative sources that Solicitor-General W. II. Rnnls of the Romo circuit will have two strong opponents the Held against him next year. One . these will lie John W, Bale, a well known and rising attorney of LsFnyette, In Walker county. Mr. Bale Is a former resident of Home, and hns ninny friends In Floyd county. Hollcltor Ennis' other opponent will be former City Judge George A. U. Harris, of Home.

Slndo, president of the Nn ttounl Bank of Columbus, Is incensed o' what he calls unfair treatment accorded him Thursday by the senate committee on temperance. Mr. Slade soys ho attended the hearing from 9 o’clock until 10:80 o’clock when ho went to the Terminal Station tc meet the balance of the Columbus dclcga tlon opposed to the prohibition bill.
