At noon today, after a moat successful term, tiiw session of Floyd county Teachers Institute came to an end. The closing exercise* were in deed impressive and interesting.

Then County Sohool Commis sioner Gwaltney after imparting some practicle information to his teachers about the business of hi* office and their avocation as teacher made way for Mr. Hayes to say good bye. Mr. Hayes closing remarks were listened to most attentively —a song was sung—a blessing was asked and every body crowded up to bid Mr. Hayes goodbye. The following resolutions offered and read by Mr. Shiflett had been adopted by a unanimous rising vote RESOLUTION*. We th* Teach*rs of Fliyd Co. iu Annual Institute assembled, realizing the duty incumbent upon us to formulate, in some way, ex pressions of our appreciation of the advantages accrueing to us, as teachers, and ultimately to the chiidien <>f the county under our fhaige, from the establishing and maintaining of such Institutes by the state, for our benefit, do sub mit the following resolutions : f irst: That we extend to our worthy state school commissioner Hon. G. R. Glenn, our thanks .for UlJ tiring efforts to bring the Institutes to highest practical use fulness, and for his steady pur pose as manifested by the admin istration of the affairs of his office, to elevate the standard of popular ''ducation in Georgia, and to bec ter the condition of the public school teachers, of Georgia. Second: That we feel ourselves under lasting obligation to our ( yunty School Commissioner, for fiis constant, well defined, and in telligent efforts to make this In stitute, not only a benefit, but a pleasure to us and for his uniform kindness and courtesy to us in the Past, from the day of his taking charge of his present office. We <?f ’ 1 that we have in Mr. Gwaltney a a der in our important work’ "ill do us right and lead us U P to higher plains, in our profes ®lon > a nd all the time work faith. u Hv for the bettering of our con dition. dhird: 1 hat we would express I rof. H, A. Hayes, our highest approbation of his valuable ser vices lendered us, and we thank 11111 warmly and kindly, f*r the 8c ly and masterly manner, THE HUSTLER OF ROME. ,in which he has conducted this ' Institute. We appreciate th* value jof the great work now being done . in the Norma! Training school and I 1 eachers Institutes, and we rec j ognize in Prof. Hayes one of the I strongest exponents of these In stitutions. We shall endeaver to utilize, for our own advancement and for the benefit of our pupils, the t'inely and helpful suggestions submitted us, in his lectures here. We feel that every thing, he has said is worthy of our best thought ami fairest <onsideration. Fourth: That we specially re member and thank Com. Milner and the teachers of Chattooga Co. for their presence here and hearty cooperation in the work of the In stitute, realizing the inconvenience and expense, necessarily incurred by them, in thus favoring us. Fifth: That we thank S. P. Da vis for the use of organ so kindly lent us, and that, w e thank the Second Baptist church for the use of music books. 3rd. that we thank Judge John F. Davis, for the helpful and excellent song service rendered us. Sixth: That we are unable to ex press cur full sense of obligation to Prof. Pink, D, Pollock, for his several lectures before us, bringing to us an inspiration, to higher purposes and an admiration for a true nobleman ; that cannot fail to make us more patient in onr hum bler walks of life, and help u* to realize, that we have only to raise •our hands a li t e higher to pluck the richest of fruit. Seventh: That we would express our gratitude to Dr. A. J. Battle, Pres, of Shorter College, for the thoughtful and gentle courtesies, extended by him, and especially for the use of th* college chapel, for lectures o n Wednesday and Thursday evenings. We wouM ex tend to Mrs. Chas, D. Wood and Mrs. Edward Hill, a full expres sion of our gratefulness for the most excellent and soul inspiring music, with which they favored us, contributing so greatly to our en tertainment Thursday evening. Eighth: That we recommend to our worthy county school Com missioner as soon as he can fully acquaint himself w'th the circum stances and conditions of the vari ous schools in the county, that he will endeaver to secure the cooper ation ot the County Board of Ed ucation to contract with all teach ers, of public schools on a salery bases, rather than Per Diem, as now prevails here. We feel confi dent that the teachers whose situa tions are such as to make them indifferent as this, are under pr< - fessional obligations, to thes teach ers, in certain localities where their support is so precarious. Ninth: That we shall greatful ly remember the many kindness es and courtesies extended to us by ’he citizens of Rome, and we shall not be foigetful of the favors shown us by the various Journals of this city.

Our doctor’s rem edies had failed, then we tried Chamberlain s Colic, C holera and Diarrhoea Remedy, which gave very speedy relief.

T A THEY ESCAPED The Chattahoochee Coochee Ne gros not Lynched, IN HIDING NEAR CUSSETA During a Furious Rain Storm They Battered Down the Jail Door Using a Heavy Iron Bar. Columbus, Ga , July 10. —Later reports from Cusseta, in Chatta hoochee county, show thatthte de parture of the two negro prisoners John Hunt and Jim Williams, from the county jail at'that place Tuesday night was purely an es cape, and not really a lynching, as at fir*t believed by many. It is more generally thought She affair was an ordinary jail delivery and that the two negro criminals, both wanted for seriou? crimes,ar* alive and at liberty. The negroes in some manner obtained posses sion of an iron bar, with which they battered their way to liberty, attaoking the door at its weakest point. A furious rain storm was raging at the time and the tracks of the fugitives were soon obliterated. The theory on the part cf many people, and it was quite a natural one under the circumstaaces, was that a small mob forcibly took the prisoner* from the jail and dispos ed of them and then battered the jail door from the insid as if to make it appear that the negroes had escaped. It is now generally d i eared i t-.d. Appearances now point against it, although some still cling to the theory. Sheriff Bagley, of Chatta hoochee county, accompanied by a posse, has been scouring the coun try for the two criminals. It is thought that Williams is 10 CENTS A WEEF& in hiding near Giles, his-oidJlb w. at the place where the murder ot Mr. J W. Burke, with • which he was charged, was ccf.mitt*x.
