TEACHERS MEETING HELD ON SATURDAY SCHOOL SESSION STARTS ON NEXT MONDAY MORNING WILL ENROLLTODAY At South Side, Glenn and Whit ner Street Schools-Looking Forward Big Attendance. As IH generally known the city R< hoots will liomin their 1915-1(1 ses sion next Monday morning- The en rollment to ?lat?? for the three schools insldo the city limits for white chil dren. North Kant, Market street and Kennedy street schools, numbers about 1*100, which ?viii represent, as compared with figures last year, a probable enrollment of about 3,400 for tho beginning of tho session. Figures of enrollment for the past several years show that thc three above men' tloned school, the colored schools, und the mill schools, each have about one third of tile total number of pupils attending. Supt. E. C. McCants stated yester day that in all probability the en rollment at the three schools, North Pant. Kennedy am! West Market Btreet schools, would be greatly in creased on the opening morning since many wait until then to enroll. To Enroll Today. The principals of the schools on Bait AVlhltncr and Olean street? and the South Side school will he at tue building* today between the hours of 'Ja. m. and lp. m. for the purpose of enrolling pupils and all whu have not attended to this matter are asked to go today and be enrolled. Teachers' Meeting*. The teachers of the schools are ask Bd to meet in the oflice of Superin tendent McCants tomorrow as fol lows: High school teao'.iers at ll o'clock. Fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh grade teachers at 12 o'clock. First, second and third grade teach ers at 12:30. Colored teachers at :'. o'clock. Supt. McCants stated yesterday that he wanted to urge all pupils to realize the necessity of starting in school the first day. Tits will enable nil to have an equal chance and will not only, be better for those who ire thinking of starting later, but al so for those who do start the first lay. There is probably no moro ser ious drawbacks to a pupil's advance ment than that of not starting the first day and irregular attendance. All pupils are urged to start on Mon day and then keep it np by being there every day thereafter. ANDERSON MAN DIES IN JACKSONVILLE, FLA.

Robert McGee was arrested yester day by Sheriff Ashley un the charge of operating an Illicit distillery and Wc has been placed in the county jail. lt will be remembered that .Sherill Ashley, Deputy Sanders, Mill Deputy Ira B. Wiles of Iva, 1'oMcoman Mc Gill. S. M. McAdams und anolhei man of Iva went lo Gregg Shoals on last Sunday night in order to inves tigate u iiiinnr flint there was a still in operation in that community. Af ter watching all night around a fur nace and several barrels of mash and slop ihut had been found, they wer? rewarded early Monday moaning by ...fing RoheityAlcGee, u w'itte man, ?onie to the place and carry off a rive gallon cari of distilled slop. The sherill Btated to a representa tive of The IntelVs*mc*J- Tuesday that ho did not find a still but if fur nace, a doubler, and several b?rrela of mash und slop. Ile also stated that when McGee came to tho place and got the can of slop, he started up the path toward where the w.ierifi and his party were hidden under a swectgum tree in Hie bushes. McGee evidently saw the men for he changed his course and went away carrying the distilled slop toward the house by another route. T .<e sheriff arti party thinking that thc man had seen them and that lt would be useless to stay longer, overtook McGee. He was asked to go back to the furnace with them which he did. Ile was questioned there but nothing missed that would cwuse Guim to be suspect ed enough an that the sheriff could arrest him. Sheriff Ashley then told McGee that he would have to search his house. This was done but no bottles, Jugs, or nnytning else was found that would cause suspicion. The sheriff told the reporter on Tues day that he did not think the evi dence was strom; enough to bring a case against McGee and therefore he was not arrested. Takes Different Turn. The situation took a different turn yesterday morning. It is stated that Magistrate J. A.

It ls stated that Mr. McAllister stated t'.ot he did not have any.. The sheriff Bald that ho then told him that he (Mr. McAllister) should, not make com plaint unless he had evidence and if he did have evidence should have issued a warrant and had Mcee ar rested.
