Tillman left their Trenton homo and Trenton friends this morning for Washington, where the senator go;s to resume his official dutieß. The senator has been a very busy man during his month’s stay here, looking after his farming interests, having re pairs made on his place ar.d last, but by no mean least, working with un tiring energy and love in his large flowergarden. which at this season is one riot of blooms, the roses and lilies vieing with each other in their FIVE FAIR DIRECTORS RESIGN SIMULTANEOUSLY Messrs. E. W. Herman, T. W. Loyless, E. C. Denton, G. H. Nixon and L. A. Dorr Sever Their Con nection With Board, As signing, in Most In stances, Stress of Other Business For the Cause. At a meeting of the board of di rectors of the Georgia-Carolina Fair association, held Wednesday after noon at the Chamber of Commerce, the resignations of the following membrs were offered and accepted Mr. T. W. Loyless, Mr. E. C. Denton, Mr. G. H. Nixon, Mr. L. A. Dorr and Mr. E. W. Herman No successors have as yet been elected. Mr. James U. Jackson, president, of the Fair .association, states that he will appoint a commit tee to make the choice, as several names have already been offered. All the resignations came in by letter. It was stated In a majority of them that stress of other business compelled withdrawal of official con nection with the Fair association. Mr. Herman was chairman of the finance committee. He said that he felt he had earned relief from tin* work of that position, which for two years required a great deal of hlB time. “I have been connected with the Fair association and the Cham her of Commerce, for more than two years now.” he said. ”1 felt that It was now time some other member of the board of directors should- relieve me in the work I have done.” Mr. Herman further stated that he under stood Mr. Jackson and Secretary Beane would take charge, temporarily at least, of the finances of the asso ciation. v Mr. Loyless was chairman of the advertising committee. He simply stated that he did not have time to devote to the duties incumbent upon that office. ”At the time I sent In my resignation I was unaware of at ledM two others being offered for ac ceptance at the same meeting, and both the directors in question were likewise ignorant of my determina tion to resign,” he said. Mr. Nixon declined to state his reasons for resigning. It is under stood, however, that stress of busi ness was given as the cause in his letter to the board of directors. ■ Both Mr. Dorr and Mr. Denton •were out of town today, and it is therefore impossible to secure any statement of their reasons for sever ing official connection with the Fair association. Mr. Dorr was chairman of the poultry committee and Mr. •Denton chairman of the women’s work committee. President Jackson declares that ip. his opinion the action of the five dl rectirs partakes of no unusual signi ficance. He said he understood at least three were sent in without knowledge that others would do the same thing. “In all the letters ot' resignation offered to the directors,” said he, “the very best wishes were extended to the Fair association for success in its undertakings.” In rehponse to an unexpected sum mons by telegraph, Mr. Jackson will leave Thursday evening for New York. He had not appointed tne com mittee to chose successors to the resigned directors, at the time he dis cussed the matter. IMPORTANT SCHEDULE CHANGES 80UTHERN RAILWAY.
