VACANCIES FILLED LAST
Night The! 1 B< an l low Composed
ot W. H‘Steele, Sam .fi. Lowry J 1.
Camp J K Williamson and M M
Pepper. Honorable Men and True.
At the regular meeting of the
City Council last night, Mr. J. K.
Williamson of the Fourth Ward
was elected a member of the Board
of Trustees of the Public Schools
to fill the vacancy caused by the
resignation cf Mayor John D,
Moore.
Mr. Williamson is one of the
best known young busineso men
in the c’ty. He has been tried by
our city, before, and has always
served faithfully and ably—And
in the present position, which is
new to him, he will make a record
of which he and hie fellow citizens
will be proud. Klip Williamson
is made of pure metal.
The other vacancy was in the
Second Ward, caused by the ex
piration of Max Meyerhardts term
Mr. Meyerhardt was a candidate
for re-election bui was not “in it“
with Dr. Sam Lowry, The vote
stood six to.three in favor of Mr.
Lowry and he was declaired elect
ed.
S. M. Lowry is well known and
very popular. He is the head of
the big drug house of Lowry Bros
and proprietor of the Surprise
tore. His victory over one of the
shrewdest politicians in the state
proves a Surprise-iu-store fur his
opouent and a source of satisfac
tion to the masses of the city,
The old board of Trustees will
hold its last meeting some day
this week and the New Board will
meet aud organize on July 3rd.
They will, on that day, elect a
Superintendant, Principals and
teachers for tne Rome Public
Scheols for the ensuing year.
Tne New Board will be composed
of Cape W. H. Steele, First Ward ;
Dr. S. M. Lowry, Second Ward.
President Jot Camp, Third W tt rd ;
Mr, JK. Williamson, Fourth
Ward and Capt. M. M. Pepper of
the Fifth War I. And the pros
pects are that Capt. Stede will be
elected Secretary of the board —
if he is elected —then Rome will
have the best Secretary aud the
best all round Board of Trustees
that her public School system
has ever enjoyed.
SKIPPED hIS BOND

QUEER COURT PROCEEDINGS.
Joe B.Maddox,the bogus revenue
agent, who worked E, R. Minhin
ett, the Cave Spring distillery man
for $42 30 and was arrested ir
Cleveland, Fenn. Sunday afte r .
noon, is again at large .
Upon information from Mr .Alin
hiuett that Maddox was afugutive
from justice and was wanted in
Rome. The Cleveland police ar
rested Maddox Sunday afternoon
and telegraphed Minhinett of the
arrest. They were wired to hold
Maddox and Minhinett would be
there od the first train from Rome.
But it seems they have a queer
kind of law up there as, notwith
standing it was Sunday, Maddox
demanded an immediate hearing
and it was given him, was
released ou SSOO bond until today
at 10 o’clock, two prominent citi
zens ol Cleveland going on* his
bond. But Sunday night iMad
I dux skipped out leaving his bonds
Lmen in the lurch. ami wJjen Mro
hiuett arrived he could not be pro
duced, but Afiuhinett says ha. will
yet get him and make him suffer
the penalty of the law. He de
scribes him as a man of prepos- '
sessing appearance, about 6 feet
tall, brown eyes, auburn mustache *
and hair and wearing a new black i
trersh’d sack .-vih
