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.

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.
