PRESIDENT G. J. OHB.
Gustavus J, Orr, the handsome and
talented president of the Halton Female
College, was bom in Oxford, Georgia,
thirty years ago. He acquired his edu
cation in his native state, graduating
from the University of Georgia, at Ath
ens. He began life when quite a youth,
at the age of seventeen, ami paid for his
education himself. He first tx.ught a
county school and then wentto Americus,
V * "
schools. While at. Albany, he joined the
conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church South, and Hik'd two appoint
ments, and entered on a third when he
was called to palton as president of the
female college.
Under his guiding hand the college
has Hourjshed as the green bay tree.
Since he took charge, it has multiplied
its boarding patronage by six and almost
doubles its total enrollment,which clearly
proves he is the right man in the right
place, and one who will build up the best
female college in the state.
Prof. Orr has never held a public office,
but has been twice appointed by the
Governor to inspect the condition of the
State University and report to the Legis
lature, as a memlier of the hoard of visi
tors. lie is a Christian gentleman and a
man of broad culture,and is widely
known as oue of the finest educators in
the state. Dalton should be united in
her efforts to keep at the head of her
college Professor Orr.
He is a safe man, indefatigable worker,
and for him to know his duty, is to do it.
The North Georgia Conference did a
wise thing in putting Professor Orr at the
helm of her North Georgia college. Long
paay she keep him there.
PROF, HENRI SCHOEU.BR,
Jn charge of the musical department of
the Dalton Female college, was born in
the city of Bartenstein, Kingdom Wuert
temberg, South Germany.
Up to his 14th year, he had besides pub
lic school advantages, private tutors in
the person of a
court musician,
court organist anti
teacher of la n
guages. At the
age of fourteen lie
was admitted into
Tempelhof (Tem
ple Hall), a college

course, he traveled a few months in Ger
many, Holland and France, and came to
this country in October, 1858,
During the winter of 1858 and ’59 he
traveled south with a company; spent
summer of 1859 in Saratoga and accepted
a position as private tutor in music to
Mrs. Dr. F. L. Green, of Statesboro,
South Carolina.
In the fall of 1860, he accepted a posi
sition in the Columbia, South Carolina,
Methodist female college, and as organist
in Christ’s (Episcopal) church. Got

of 1865 with his {brother in New York,
and in th** fall of 1865, accepted a position
in the Methodist female college at Grif
fin, Ga. In the fall of 1868 he was called
to Mobile, Ala., as organist of St. Fraftcis
Street Methodist church, Doctor Philip
Neely, pastor, where Miss Augusta
Evans, the authoress, was his soprano
singerand Miss Frank Crawford, after
wards Mrs. Commodore Vanderbilt, of
New York, the Ito singer in his church
choir.
In the fall of 1870, he returned to Griftin
to teach. In the fall of 1872 he taught a
large Normal School at Barnesville, Ga.,
with C.C.Pratt and E. T. Pound, and after
wards a like school with C. C. Pratt in
Chattanooga, Tenn.
The tirsl of the year 1873 brought him
to Daltou, Ga., at the repeated request of
Rev. W. A. Rogers, then the president
of the Dalton female college and with
whom he taught in the Griftin, Georgia,
female college.
Prof. Schueller has been in Dalton
ever since, ami as he once expressed it
to the editor of The Argus, “sees no
chance of ever getting away, and may
the Lord have mercy on all of my friend's
and others not so friendly is my earnest
prayer.”
Prof. Schoeller has written a number
of songs, and some instrumental pieces,’
some eight operas, six of which are in
print, a book called “Every Day Songs,”
and is still furnishing the publishers of
the country his magnificent compositions.
Prof. Schoeller is a valuable man in
Dalton, and the city is proud of him; he
is a valuable adjunct to the Dalton Fe-
(in., te accept the po
sition of principal of
the public high school.
From Americus he
went to Auburn, Ala.,
to accept a similar po
sition. Albany, Ga.,
. was the next city that
was so fortunate as to
secure him as the
head of her public
/ m
&
y
male college and they could not very
well do without him. May he live a
thousand years and spend them all in
Dalton.
■First Methodist Sunday School.
The Sunday school met last Bunday
morning and was opened promptly
at 9 :10. A full attendance was pres
ent. The superintendent of this
school tells The Argus that a finer
corps of teachers was never seen—all
of them being devoted in their efforts
for the little ones. The following is a
list of these teachers:
Mrs. W. P. Chester, Mrs. Mattie
Robertson, Mrs. Dr. Hill Harris,
Misses Pyrene Conley, Flora Lester,
Blanche Bivings. Col. Trammell
Starr, Col. S. P. Maddox, Mr. T. A.
Berry, Prof. McLaughlin, T. A. Tye,
Prof. G. J. Orr, R. H. Baker, W. C.
Hull, Mrs. Kilby, Col. I. E. Shumate
and Col. R. J. McCamy.
All strangers or visitors in the city
are invited to visit the school and take
a seat in Col. McCamy’s class, which
is designated as the Stranger’s class.
His weekly lecture is as fine as
could be heard anywhere, full of pith
and point.
The Rev. A. W. Quillian,
preached two of his interesting and
impressive sermons to large audiences.

The Lesche-
On Monday evening Miss Ella Lewis
welcomed the members of the Lesche
to the hotel parlors. The programme
included articles upon the life and
writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson :
the discussion of his essay on com
pensation conducted by the president,
Miss Allie Moore, was entered into
with great earnestness by the young
ladies. After the regular work of the
evening, Miss Lewis entertained the
club delightfully. Refreshments were
daintily served, and the meeting was
une of the most pleasant in the history
of the club.

LOVELY LITTLE ONES.
Oalton'N Children Ahead of the Ntate
in Personal Charma*.
A SWEET CHILD.
It is a real pleasure to write this short
sketch of such a character as little Leila
Agnes Berry, the 12-year-old daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. S. E. Berry, of Dalton.
Her parents moved to Dalton during
Leila’s babyhood days, and has lived
here ever since. Leila has a lovely dis
position and so much sunshine in her
nature that all who know her love her,
and she is winning hearts and making
friends all the time. Leila is devoted to
her Sunday school and her place is rarely
vacant.
male college and is making rapid prog
ress. Especially; does she progress in
the study of music, playing exception
ally well on the piano and singing as
sweetly as a nightingale, and with as
many thriling variations as a mocking
bird.
Leila is a perfect sunbeam, a poem in
girlish beauty and sweetness, and her
father and mother are very proud of her.
And well they may be.
AN ANGEL WITHOUT WINGS.
One of the prettiest, sweetest and
brightest little girls ever seen in Dalton,
is little Frances Orr, the four-year-old
daughter of Milton Orr, of the Postal
Telegraph company at Savannah, and
grand-daughter of that courteous gentle
man, G. W. Orr, of the Western & Atlan
tic depot at Dalton.
Little Frances is quite a favorite with
all who know r her. She has a wonderful
imagination and narrates pretty little
L V
and amusing endings.
She has a large circle of friends and
admirers, who will some future day hear
of her its a popular writer of thrilling
stories and books.
No wonder she is the idol of her grand
father, and a joy unceasing to her
parents. She is the life of the home,
and the sunshine of their lives. She is
such a wonderfully pretty child that she
cannot pass along the street without at
tracting the attention of all who meet
her.
The Argus takes pleasure in present
ing her sweet little face to its readers
today.
For Whisky and Opium Habits.
Dr. Leslie E. Keeley’s Double Chlo
ride of Gold treatment has no parallel.
Over 100,000 cures in the United States
alone. Endorsed and in use by the
United States government. No coercion,
inconvenience or suffering. Patients are
furnished with whisky or opium as long
as needed. Do not be deceived by Fa
kirs and Imitators—it will be a waste of
time and money to take anything but
the genuine Keeley Cure. Dr. T. J.
Stringfield, of Dwight, 111., one of Dr.
Keeley’s regular staff at Dwight, is now
at the Dalton Institute, administering
the treatment. Correspondence confi
dential.
They Did Right.
Hon. S. B. Maxey, formerly United
States senator from Texas, writes a
letter to the Houston Post relative to
the recent outrage and lynching at
Paris, that state from which the follow
ing is an extract:
“Mr. Ware said to me; I have al
ways opposed mob law, but when I
went home the evening Smith was
burned, my little girl, about as large
as the one outraged ana murdered,
crawled into my lap and I looked into
the child’s face, and the thought ran
through my mind, suppose it had been
my little girl, what would I have
done?’ That thought was every
where, and moved the people
pie, no good man can doubt. I am
no Pharisee, and under like circum
stances I would not like to say that I
would have waited for justice to take
its course. There are some crimes
against society that are generally set
lied in their own way. Here was the
blackest crime against nature ever
committed, and was it expiated by a
death not adequate, but as nearly ad
equate to the ciime as an outraged
community could desire.”
