In calmer retrospect, it is evident

Friends of Doughty Army Chief Who Saw Him Play Football Once, and
Will Not Believe He Is To Be Deposed.
The national house and senate think
they are going to remove General
Leonard Wood from his job as boss of
the army, as was indicated by yester
day’s Washington digpafch to The
Georgian, but Atlanta people who know
the doughty general well are Inclined
to want to see the skids put In place
and a stiff shove given the general in
the small of his back before they will
believe It.
For Atlanta folk know that sandy-,
haired Leonard wasn't born yesterday
and has sixtjeen ounces of wriggling
gray matter under his straw thatch
He's .lust about the shiftiest big man
on his feet you ever saw, and it will
take a wise lot of ttolons to separate
him from his job.
M hen he was nothing hut a post sur.
geon at Fort McPherson here twenty
years ago. Atanta people vame to like
and admire Leopard Wood, He stuck
around fbr several years and made
friends by the hundreds. Whether he
was much of a sawbones, memory saith
nothing, but he was every inch a man
and there were some inches to his
anatomy.
So it was no surprise when his star
rose with the outbreak of the Spanish-
American skirmish, and Leonard was
seen hanging right on the luminary
That tar yanked him from one promo
tion to another till it landed him high
and dry as the real commahder-ln
chlef of the United States army
Which job Is about to be segregated
from him. they think at Washington
But let's wait ami see.

and the “city politicians'' did the rest
The delegates were extremely polite

The crowds in the galleries and on
the - floor of the convention —where they
had no right to be whatever, and from
which Chairman Hutchens made every
effort to clear them —treated him out
rageously
Mr. Matson. after the convention,
expressed gratitude to Mr Hutchens
and Mr Anderson for their efforts i >
get him fair play, but he was exceed
ingly bitter toward the crowds that
howled and hissed him down
He said he was sure they had been
packed into the hall for a malicious
‘ purpose, and by one of his enemies and

the committee has them yet, presum
ably At least, nobody ever heard any
thing else of them, after Watson fln

When Watson undertook to say what
he thought of a delegation composed
of Watson. Pendleton. Felder and

into silence not by the delegates, how
ever. Far be it from them to bellow
or bully Mr Matson They were to<

His friends viewed with alarm in

save the day.
And up one side and down the other,
the day finally was saved after a fash

as uncomfortably shot up in the Slaton

over.
For a time both were a trifle bewil

Wood Beats His Only Retrea*.
Even in those days the University of
Georgia was Tech's dearest foe. and as
usual th* university was confident of
defeating the Tech team hands down.
But when the Yellow and White
eleven took the field at Athens, there
was a gasp .of surprise from the uni
versity men. There were three or four
men on the team who had been voting
longer than most of the university men
had been wearing “long pants.” Dr.
Wood was one of then. Two or three
soldiers from the fort were the others
These ringers from the fort played
like demons and plowed up and down
the Georgia field till they had scored
three or four touchdowns and cracked
the Georgia team. Mood was a whole
team in himself. Though he played
guard, he dropped back and took the
hall nearly every time for gains of
from 10 to 40 yards.
Ry lhe time rhe first half was over
the Georgia rooters had started hoot

the game was over they had started
throwing rocks at him. and by that
time V\ ood and the rest of the Tech
team had started running. They ran
all th* way to the depot, where they
found refuge in a car.
That's the only time on record that
Leonard Wood ever beat a retreat, and
you can't make Georgia people believe
that a little thing like an act of con

It was presided over by Clark How -

After temporal' y organization had
been effected, the delegates proceeded
to the election of a chairman.
Mr. Matson had said early in the
garni that he should, and would, have
this place "or know the reason w hy."
His name was placed in nomination
bv a friend.
Then the names of Colonel C. R. Pen
dleton. M . G. Brantley and G R. Hutch

Mr, Matson arose, amid intense si
lence. and begegd that his name be
withdrawn, and that his friends vote
for Colonel Pendleton.
Pendleton Named Chairman.
"He is the nestor of Georgia journal

man ihat I. 1 hope my friends will

And then M'atson was vehemently
cheered. Men rushed to him and hug

he was hailed in every land as the in
genious Yankee who really could fly. In

as a background for his fame. Royalty .'
and nobility honored him everywhere, i

But the Wright brothers were too busy

them in Germany, in Scotland and in
Dayton and still they could net make

SCHOOLS, HE SNS
■
Educational Head Declares At- ;
lanta Got Worst of It in
Six Buildings.
Walter R. Daley, president of the
hoard of education, declared today that
j the city had been hopelessly robbed in
: its new schools He terms the work
' manship and materials in many of the
j schools terrible.
"It is my candid opinion that every
; new school, has cost the city from slfi,-
. OQO to Jli.non more than it should have
! cost," he said. “In addition to this,
| the interiors of many are falling to
j pieces and the roofs are perforated
i w ith leaks."
I The members of the board of educa
j tion are stirred almost to desperation
today by conditions that have gradual,
ly grown worse for many months. Con
, tinuous efforts have been made to have
j these schools repaired. The schools
' have already been accepted on the rec
ommendations of the architects. The
only recourse is the doubtful ability of
the city to recover damages from the
contractors.
Blames the Architects.
The architects are to blame," said
tV. O. Stamps, member o£ the board
. from the First ward. “They were paid
ito supervise this work. The bricks.in
; the Walker Street school are crum
: bling, the cement is giving way, the
I plastering has fallen several times on
the heads of th* children. That such
things should happen shows clearly
that th* architects did not do their
work properly."
The schools most affected are Lee
Street Walker Street. Hill Street. Eng
lish Avenue. Ashby Street and Georgia
Avenue. Reports on all these have
been made to Superintendent W M.
Slaton by the principals. The schools
engineer then made an inspection and
the reports that t he members of the
board of education now have are most
discouraging to them.
Robbed in Lot Purchases.
Aiderman James E. Warren, chair
man of t he schools committee of coun
cil, said today that trie condition? were
most discouraging. H* agreed with
President Daley that the city has been
robbed and added that, it had been
stung in school lots as well as build
ings.
•“The fault—ls with the cubersome
system of supervision." he said. “I fa.
vored a change in our system of gov
ernment not because 1 was opposed to
any official, but because I realized, and
every on* who considers the matter
without prejudice realizes, that the city
gets robbed in almost everything."
President Daley said the board of ed
ucation is required by council to build
all of its schools by contract, let and
supervised jointly by the board of edu
cation and the bond commission.
F. A. Quillian, chairman of the bond
commission, is paid a salary to look
after the work and most of lhe author
ity is lodged with him.
Daley Says He's Helpless.
"I haven't the authority to call a joint
meeting of the board of education and
the bond commission to thoroughly in
vestigate this matter," Haley said. "But'
Mr. Quillian has, and 1 suppose he will
call such a meeting."
But Mr. Quillian did not think the
situation so serious. He said today
that he would not cal! a special meet
ing of the joint boards, but that he
would continue to urge the contractors
to repair these buildings.
| "If they refuse to make these repairs.
■ I will then call a joint meeting of the
i board of education and the bond eom
: mission and we. will report to council
! to sue the contractors for their bonds,"
i he said.

CC c PURIFIES
□•0.0. BAD BLOOD
Bad blood is responsible for most of our ailments, and when from any
cause it becomes infected with impurities, humors or poisons, trouble in some
form is sure to follow. Muddy, sallow complexions, eruptions, pimples, etc.,
show that the blood is infected with unhealthy humors which have changed
it from a’ pure, fresh stream to a sour, acrid fluid, which forces out its
impurities through the pores and glands of the skin. A very common evi
dence of bad blood is sores and ulcers, which break out on the flesh, often
from a very insignificant bruise, or even scratch or abrasion. If the blood
was healthy the place would heal at once; but being infected with impurities
which are discharged into the wound, irritation and inflammation are set
. up. the fibres and tissues are broken, and the sore continues until the
blood is purified of the cause. S. S. S. is Nature’s blood-purifier and tonic,
made entirely from roots, herbs and barks. It goes down into the circiiTa*
tion and removes every particle of impurity, humor or poison, restores lost
vitality, and steadily tones up the entire system. S. S. S. neutralizes any
excess of acid in the blood, making it pure, fresh and healthy, and perma
nently cures Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Salt Rheum. Boils, and all other skin
eruption or disease. Book on the blood and any medical advice free.
