Superintondont MeMahan as agont of the Stato Board of Education is beginning to ho harrassed with ques tions relative to the change of books under the rccont adoption, which goes into offoct on the first day of November, and will be compulsory after Juno 30th. Some time ago a letter of information to County Su perintendents wits sent, together with fivo thousand pamphlets for distribu tion. The following additional let ter wa- sent out yesterday: EXCIIAN(IF OFTT HKlSlo. in tho hands of pupils-Inquirios have been inado of mo as to what books are to he accopted by the pub. lishers in oxchango I >r tho books just adopted. The contrac is explicit: "All text books of any series or of any edition in the hands of pupils and designed to be displaced by text books herein adopted." This applies even to thoso old books that were long since left off the State list. A child buying a reador can obtain it at the reduced "exchango prico" if he oilers in exchange for it any old reader, a first. for a first, a second for a second, etc. So of arithmetics, go ographies, Oe. Thi; arrangomont continues until Nov. 15, 1901. After that time there is no guarantee that the old books can be disposed of at any price. Yet no such books can be used in the public schools, since the act of the legislature directs the State Board of Education "to pro scribe and to enforce, as far as prac tiaable, the use of a uniform series of text books in the free public schools," and the State Board has now adopted a single exclusive list, and entered into contract with the publishers to "enforce, as a rule for the government of the government of the public schools, the following: That no pay warrant shall be issued by any board of trustees or approved by any county superintendent of ed ucation in favor of any teacher who, after June 30th, 1901, uses in the public schools of this State any text book to the exclusion of any text book or books heroin adopted on the same subject." Honce you cannot too strongly impress upon the minds of the teachors and the people the importance of getting together all old text books and having them taken up by the publishers through the county superintendents or through the private dealers in the counties where they do not sell hooks. Some publishers may show a disposition to pick and choose what hooks they will accept in exchange, but a most liberal construction of the contract must be required of them if school officers- are to be ex pected to 'bring about the exclusive use of the newvly adopted books, as enjoined in. the contract made by the State Board. This will he at best a most difficult and thankloss task, and certainly the publishers should he interested in doing their part, if State uniformity (required by law) is not to he a farce. The publishers are to pay all freight, drayage, expense of packing, etc., connected with taking up of old books in exchange for new books, which are to cost only the "exchange price"~ printed on the hack of the books. County Superintendents' Stoek. The stock of displaced books in each county depository, Nov. 1, !o00, must be taken up by the publishers of the newly adopted books on the same subject at their cost to the county superintendent. This cost includes freight and drayage. In short, the school fund invested in such books is to remain undiminished. Where an old book has been re-adopted at a lower price, the county superintend ent should notify the publisher of the number in stock, and the publisher must credit the county depository with a sum equal to the difference in the old and newv price. A fter Nov. 1st, the books must be sold at the now price. The State Board post poned the adoption of text books on ethics and on Einglish and American literature. For the present the old books on thoso subjects (now nro. vided for) aro not inclu'led in the exchango list.

"The National Maginu" Score" Ia It a Carrying out its policy of recoi ding current world happenings in advinice of all cont emporarios, the OJtober number of "Tho National Magazine" contains the only acouint of tho ter riblo catastropho at Galveston given by a monthly publication for 0 tober. The personal account or a survivor of tho greatest calamity of ihn ceontury is net forth in a vivid nold striking manner, and tie nuntwrous illistra tions takenl imm.'(diately after t ho event especially for "Tho National Magazino" give a comprehensive idea of the terrible hiavcc wrought by the flood. In connection w%ith this article appears the scientili view of the oc curonco presented by Willis ,. Moor,. Director of the UnitodStates\Woat her Bureau, accompanied by an oflicial cbart of the tracl,- of the storm, p'1 pared especially for this publication. These two articlos, with the veccomll panying illustrations, compriso the best, and most authontic account of the groat storm yet given and imlko the October number of "The Nat ional Magazine" of great libtoric valtie, woriby of careful preservation for referen ii in future years. Joe MitChel ChappIO's gossip of "Affairs at\Vashingtou"is as pi<iant and timely as ever, and full of bright incidents. Frank Putnam, perhaps the truest American poet of to-day, contributes a notable offering entitled "God's Cargo in the Floots of trade. "The Musical Renaissanco of North ern New England" tells what William Rogers Chapman's magic baton has accomplished in the main music fes. tivals, and "Double-Tracking a Transcontinental Railway" gives an interesting outline of westering rail roading of the present day. Clinton Scollard and NixoL Water. man contribute charactoristic poetic gems in this numbor, and the fiction offering is especially strong, Francis Lynde, Charles W. Reamer and Elmore Ellhott Peake b)eing repre seated in the list of contributions. A new department, "Commonsense Communication," has been added' and the other regular departments fully sustain their usual excellence. Altogether, it is not too much to say that the October- number of "The TIhe National Magazine" heads the list.

Atlanta, Oct. 22.-During his pros ont visit to his home in Alabama and whorover he has appeared before the public, Lioutonant R. P. Hobson has boon quoted as saying that Admiral Sampson is dying of a broken hoart owing to. the Sampson-Schloy con trovorsey which was tho outcome of the naval battle of Santiago. lHe is (uote1d as follows: "Whon, last Saturday, Oct. 13, 1 saw in the papers that Admiral Sanp son was ill, I took the next train to Boston and spont Sunday with him. His health is declining. His phyri cians are baill-d at his malady. His organs are right, but his hoalth does not improve. "Wo touched on ono or two sub. jects. For a little whilo ho could not speak. Soon ho had to be car riod to his room, and I did not so him again. Mrs. Sampson told me that this great man was brooding, was breaking his hoart at the thought that his follow-countrYImon woro so unkind. "I said to Mrs. Samiiption: 'When I visit my Southland, if the opportu. nity offers itself, 1 wish to try to tell them something of this majestic charactor.' She replied: 'You dare not. Your Southland was quick and vigorous to resent what was thought to be an attempt to take away the laurels of one of its great men.' "I camle by Washington and saw the Secretary of the Navy and the President. To tho I also stated my intention, and they both gave their consent, warning mo, however, of what I might expect." Mr. Hobson, in his speech at a public recoption here today, said Ad miral Sampson bad not received sim plo justice at the hands of tho Amer ican people. He said: "It has been sought, to plIeco him in a despicable light bufore the world-to make him an incompetent, narrow-minded man and jealous of the fame of his contomporaries--par. ticularly of one illustrious naval chief. As his junior officor serving under him I express the deliberato opinion that Admiral Sampson is the colossal figuro of the Spanish-Amer. ican war-the genius of the naval battle of .Santiago. "iIe is unrivaled today as the di recting minid of the war squadron on the seas. I say this much for him becanse he is a silent man. In the clamor of calumny and detraction he holds his peace. Though his great heart bleeds with this unkind cut, he suffers in sileneo." Beoars the o Kind You ||8v0 Always Bo0ghl Bignaturo-- - of 8AYS H11s wIFE IS CR(AZ/Y.
