WAYCR0SS NEWS NOTES.
Much Interest in the Bill for n Coun-
~ school Tax.

Waycross, Ga, Nov. 19.-School
Commissioner Bennett is deeply inter-
ested in the passage of the bill intro
duced in the Senate by Hon. Lem john
son for a county school tax. When
this bill is passed" said Mr.. Bennett,
and it has been ratified by the peo-
pie and the county board of education,
it will give us $1,000 a year in adj
dition to the amount of the school
fund of Ware. There are 100000 tax
able property in the county outside OF
Waycross and a 21a mills tax on that
would raise the $4,000. We already get
IS, 900 from other sources and this will
raise our school fund to $1,000 a year.
OF course this bill will have to be rati-
fed by a vote of the people after II is
passed. Then the county board of
education will have the option of levy
ing the whole 21a mills or part of it or
none of 1t, just as they see mt. They
can levy it for one year and take it
off next year if they desire. 1t is pure
ly optional with the board after the
people ratify."

THE CITY COURT BILL.
will Bring Money Into County
Treasury, Says Mr.. Hitch.

Will Bring Money Into County
Treasury, Says Mr.. Hitch.
Atlanta, Nov. 19.-Speaking of the
City Court bill to-day. Mr.. Hitch Of
Chatham, states that the measure not
only will not involve extra expense to
the county. but it will be the means of
bringing a large amount into the treas
ury of the county. In the first place,
the increase in cost, Mr.. Hitch says,
will be only $1,000. The present sal
airy of the judge is $1,000, and the sal
airy of the two proposed judges Will
be only $4,000 The bill contemplates
only one sheriff and one clerk for both
courts, and declares that the number
of bailiffs and deputies shall not be in
creased AS against the increased cost
of 81. 900 there is considerable saving
he states in many features. There is a
saving in Jail fees, as the criminal
court must clear the Jail daily. There
will be saving in jury fees as there
can be jury trials in either court only
on written demand. Many causes will
be submitted direct to the judge. In
addition TO this, the bill provides that
all misdemeanor cases arising in the
county shall be tried in the City Court.
The result will be, Mr.. Hitch states,
that the $4,000 or more in fines which
is now divided among the officers of
the court annually, will go into the
county treasury, since the solicitor of
the City Court is to be paid a salary
Of SIPS per month and no fees.

into a very awkward predicament at

scend. In the meantime a shoulder
ing fire on the hearth blazed up and
the negro was being slowly barbecued.
He set up a fearful yell and kept 1t
up until a number Of people assem-
bled who tried to extricate him. They
could neither pull him up or down and
remembering the expedient of boys IN
extricating rabbits from a. hollow log,
they cut him out by making a hole in
the wall of the chimney. Badly roast
ed, but still alive, he was brought to
the city yesterday and lodged in Jail
