BATTLESHIP “GEORGIA” WON’T COME VERY NEAR The battleship Georgia which Is soon to be commissioned, cannot get any nearer Georgia waters than 1 or 4 miles off Tybes, and It will be the mid dle of December next before she can be sent thnt close. This information was brought back from Washington by Governor Terrellr who has Just returned from a ten days’ trip East, accompanied by Mrs. Ter rell. "The Georgia, which Is now at Bos ton,” Governor Terrell said, "will be turned over to the government next Sunday and accepted on Monday. At the time of her acceptance the officers of the new vessel will be commissioned and ordered to man the vessel. Secre tary of the Navy Bonaparte explained I the charts while I was In his office and ' we found that 2 or 4 miles off Tybee j Is the nearest the new battleship can safely get to Georgia waters. The Georgia draws 2S feet 8 Inches, but It Is not considered safe for her to go Into water less than 28 to 30 feet deep. Secretary Bonaparte stated It would be the middle of December before the bat- 1 tleshlp could be sent to Georgia, but that this would be done If we desired It. Of course we will have her come. I expect to have a conference with Mayor Myers, of Savannah,, who Is very much Interested In the matter and also of the presentation of some suitable gift to the new vessel. We will doubtless be able to arrange to have the people who want to visit the Georgia taken down to Tybee on vessels of some kind. It will take three months to man the ves sel and train the crew nnd for this rea son It will be Impossible to get the Georgia here before December." Will Help New 8choole. Governor Terrell also brought back some Interesting information regarding the new district agricultural colleges which nre being established In Geor gia. He had a conference with mem bers ot the Southern Education board and they agreed at their next meeting to take up the question of extending aid to the Tech and to other Georgia edu cational Institutions. The governor was fortunate In secur ing some Immediate aid for the new agricultural college! to be established In each congressional district. Under the law establishing these colleges no money will be available until January " 1907. "There Is much preliminary work to be done In connection with the estab lishment of these colleges,” Governor Terrell said, "and the Southern Educa tion board has agreed at Its own ex pense to send such experts to Georgia as wo need to map out the curriculum and give such other aid ns they can to the trustees. The board also agreed to pay the preliminary expenses of the trustees in the work of establishing the colleges. "Further than that the board sent its secretary. Dr. Wallace Butrlck, to Washington with mo to see Secretary Wilson and Assistant Secretary Hayes of the department of agriculture. They agreed to send two experts to Georgia to nld In the work and lend euch other aid as tho department can give under the law."

WELL-BORN ENGLISH PAUPERS. Last of Many-Famous House* In Re duced CiroumiUncss. It I* a tact well known to all students of family history, said a genealogical pert, that If you want to And the uest blood” and the longest descents, you must go, not to the pgerage, but to the great middle classes, and even lower, that many a proud wearer of a duke’s or an earl's coronet today has a pedigree which will not compare for distinction with that of seme of his tradesmen or tenants. Tes, I know this Is a surprising statement, but it Is a sober statement of the truth. There are very few of our present peers who can trace their descent from the great noble* of tha days of chivalry or earlier. The founder of one line of marquesses was an innkeper; of a line of earls a glazier, and so on; and many of the greatest aristocrats of our time owe their rank and wealth to tho en terprise and luck of city apprentices. To quote Burke: "Let us look back only aa far as the. year 1637, and we shall find the great- grandson of Margaret Plantaganet, herself the daughter and nelress of George, duke of Clarence, following the cobbler’s craft at Newport, a little town In Shropshire. Nor Is this the only branch of the tree of royalty that has dwarfed and withered. "If we were to closely Investigate the fortunes of the many Inheritors of the royal arms, It would soon be ehown that 'the aspiring blood of Lancaster’ flows through very humble veins. Among the lineal dlscendants of Ed ward of Woodstock, earl of Kent, sixth son of Edward I, k,lng of England, en titled to a quarter the royal'arma, oc cur a butcher and. a toll gatherer—the first a Joseph Smart, of Halesowen, the latter a George Wltmot, keeper of the turnpike gate at Cooper's Bank, near Dudley. "Then again, among ths descendants of Thomas Plantaganet, duke of Glou cester, fifth son of Edward III, we dis cover Stephen James Penney, the laic sexton at St. George’s, Hanover square l strange descent from the sword and scepter to the spade and pickax!” The last head of the great Scottlsii house of Lindsay, and de Jure earl of Crawford, died In 17*4, In the capac ity of hostler In an Inn at Kirkwall, In the Orkneys; and In four genera tions the descendant* of Sir Richard Hnightley of Fawsley (the head of one of the oldest and most distinguish ed families in England) and his wife, daughter of the great Protector Somer set, ended as obscure London trades men—drapers and oil men outside tha city gates. v Sir Thomas Conyers, the head of a family which had held vast-estates, owned castles and enjoyed high rank in the north ot England almost from the days of the conquest, died a pau per In a Durham work house.
