numbers of ladies and girls gracefully
speeding their wheels, with gentlemen
and boy escorts as gallant as they are
accomplished in “biking” exercises, will

of Athens to having the best, the most
skillful and artistic bicyclists in all of
our progressive and up-to-date commu
nities, is not without proof to fully sus
tain the claim.
The “bicycle meets” amongst the la

our city, whilst those of the little boys

joy forever.”

New York, Oct. 5.—Arrangements
were completed today for the Henry

Consequently tomorrow night will be

The Public Schools.
No public system of schools in Geor
gia can boast an abler, more competent
and efficient public, school superintend
ent than Athens has in Prof. G. G.
Bond. With his able, accomplished and
efficient corps of teachers, than whom
no better ever wielded the rod or han
dled the primer, that the yonng idea
might he taught to behave as well as to
shoot, he has given to Athens a public
school service satisfactory in the high
est degree, and which is a proud monu
ment to our Classic City and her inter
est in the great cause of education.

he preferred to remain and fight it out.
Despite his attitude, she urged that
some other provision be made for him,
for his own safety. Loftin has not, com
municated with the department for
some time, and no official proposition
for a transfer has been made to him.
Candidate Lyons, of Augusta, Ga.,
another colored office-seeker, and a
friend of Loftin, was here today, and
said he was confident that the latter
would decline to let the trouble force
him to vacate his present office.

ance and present a platform on which
he will make the campaign. The chair
man will first tender to Mr. George a
nomination in behalf of the people.
This will be done so that it can be said
that Mr. George was first placed in nom
ination by the people regardless of poli
tics. Abram H. Cruikshank will then
convey the nomination to Mr; George on
behalf of the United Democracy.
Then Charles Frederick Adams will
tender the same nomination to Mr.
George as the nominee of the Democrat

colleges this year compared favorably
with those in the north. The Universi
ty of Georgia defeated the famous Uni
versity of Pennsylvania team in Atlanta
last summer by a score of 4 to 0. The
University of Georgia subsequently de
feated the University of Virginia after
the latter has knocked every Yale
pitcher out of the box.
Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia,
Vanderbilt and Sewanee had fine base
ball teams this year.
Now that the baseball season is over
these universities are prepared to send
their representatives upon the football
field and they will all be stronger than
ever before.
In addition to the institutions named
it must be remembered that Auburn is
in the contest for football honors, and
Auburn has beaten Georgia twice—the
score now standing even between the
two schools. Georgia has never tackled
Virginia at football and the game be
tween them to be played in this city on
October 80 will be perhaps the livest
and most closely contested of the entire
series in the south. We nave great faith
that Georgia will win the football cham

Although such a rumor has been -

President Bradwell said yesterday he R

He said that the faculty and students v
