board of trustees of the Brenham
Public schools, was held Tuesday
afternoon, Mr. W. A. Wood pre-
siding in the absence of Mr. H.
K. Harrison.
Routine business was disposed
of, and monthly bills were
audited and approved.
( The report of the superinten-
dent was submitted for the month
ending January 20. It showed
that the superintendent had made
34 visits during the month to all
grades. The general conditions
are satisfactory, except for ir-
regular attendance on account
of illness. The changes effected
by giving Miss Pearle Perkins
charge of the Seventh grade of
the Central school, Mrs. Sloan
the Fifth grade and Miss Beat
rice Hutchinson the fourth, were
reported by him to be very satis
factory. He stated that the
semi-annual examinations were
held January 18,19 and 20 and
were generally satisfactory
The superintendent further re-
ported that he had collected since
September 5, 1898, tuition to the
amount of $72; $66 having been
paid in to the hands of the city
treasurer. The pay roll of
teachers for the month amounted

which the meeting will be held.
This was agreed to.
It was decided to hold the dis-
trict meeting in the First Bap*
tist church in this city as that
building is more centrally located
and is large enough.
A resolution was adopted pro-
testing against the member of
congress from Utah, who prac-
tices polygamy being allowed to
take his seat, and was provided
that copy of the resolution be
furnished each member of con-
gress from Texas
It was decided to invite all
pastors resident in this
attend the meetings of the
trict convention, and join
movement in any way they might
desire. It was also farther d$
cided that the Sunday schools of
the city be requested to send a
fraternal delegate to the district
meeting.
A letter was read from Mrs.
Weidemeyer, state evangelistic
superintendent, adviBing the
ladies that she would be present
at the district meeting.

If you would forever be rid of
the aches and pains, and some-
times the tortures produced by
Rheumatism, you must take the
right remedy. Those who con-
tinue to suffer are relying upon
remedies which do not reach their
trouble. The doctor's treatment
always consists of potash and
mercury, which only intensify the
disease, causing the joints to stiff-
en and the bones to ache, besides
seriously impairing the digestive
organs.
Rheumatism Is a disordered state of
the blood, and the only cure for it is a
real Wood remedy. Swift's Specific (8.
S. 8.) goes down to the very bottom of
all diseases of the blood, and promptly
cures cases that other remedies cannot
reach.
