A YOUTHFUL MURDERER.

Eddie Dickson. 10 years old, drove
knife to the heart of Arthur Tucker,
Is years old. at the corner of West
Fair and Vine streets in Atlanta Tues
day night. The youthful murderer
closed his bloody knife. coolly placed
II in his pocket and walked off before
an officer arrived to arrest him. When
the police arrived they found a negro
boy. wearing knee pants, lying on his
back with a knife wound in his heart
The rain was pattering down in the
upturned face, while a large crowd of
excited negroes stood around COM
menting in awed whispers on the
crime. Dickson is a small negro boy
and does not look to be over 10 years
of age. He is the youngest person who
has ever committed a murder in At
lanta. He is well known to the police
and was under arrest a few days ago
on the charge of being a street loafer.
Young as he is, he has a vicious coun-
tenance, and the police have often re-
marked that IL was only matter of
time when he would end his career on
the galiows. The only witness to the
crime could not be found and Dickson
has not been arrested.

LOWNDEs COUNTY,s GROWTH.

The Valdosta Times publishes a ia
BILE showing the gain in tax values by
districts for Lowndes county for each
year from 1895 to 1901. The showing is
one for the people of Lowndes to be
proud of. The total returns of the
county in 1898 were $3,272,207 BY 1901
this had grown to $4,413,315. a gain for
the three years of $1,141. los. The Val
dosta district increased from $2,S2S, 211
to $3.120.0S7. OF the eight country dis
tricts all but one showed an increase
each year, this one remaining station
airy only one year. The returns by ne
groes increased from 1888, 646 to $204, 535.
The Times says: There are new
counties in Georgia, where special lines
of development have been, taken up.
in late years, that may show as great
percentage of increase, but we doubt
if there is one of the older counties
that can show a healthier gain. 1t is
a record of which every citizen of the
county may be proud. for there is moth
ing of the mushroom boom about it.

SPRAYED HIS PEACH TREES,

H. L. Woodruff, a prominent citizen
of Columbus, who has an extensive
peach orchard near the city, ia salts
fled that the fine condition of his
peaches this year is due to his having
carefully followed the directions given
by State Entomologist Scott. He
sprayed his 10000 trees, except forty,
and when visiting his orchard recent
ly took occasion to notice these forty.
The fruit in the rest of the orchard is
in splendid condition, the peaches hav-
ing we'll formed and finely favored, but
on these forty trees the peaches are
imperfectly formed and of an indiffer-
ent quality. The incident was a strik-
ing illustration of the good results to
be derived from spraying.

THE sEABoARD AND TAMPA.

The people of Tampa are worked up
over a prospective move of the Sea-
board Railway, which might deprive
Tampa of the trade of the Manatee sec
ton. The Tampa Times says: Vice
President Barr. general superintendent
of the Fifth division; Maxwell, general
Superintendent, and Chief Engineer
Maylow of the Seaboard Air Line, ac-
companied by their secretaries, arrived
here Friday night in their private cars.
Saturday morning the cars were sent
to Plant City, and the party went
down to the Manatee river by the Plant
Line. They spent Saturday in the Man
aztec section, and yesterday drove from
Palmetto to Plant City in carriages.
The movements of the party were very
mysterious. They very evidently desired
to escape attention., but they did not
succeed entirely. SNeral people were
soon appraised of their presence, watch
ing their movements and specializing
on their purposes. The general and nat
ural deduction of the people is that
these gentlemen are figuring on the
construction of a branch of the Sea-
board Air Line from Plant City to the
Manatee river. If this be true 1t would,
1t strikes us, be suicidal step on the
part of the Seaboard people. That line
now enjoys fine patronage in Tam
pa but should 1t strike such a blow at
this city's interests as that which is
suspected they are now contemplating.
the people of Tampa would very nat
urally adopt retaliatory measures, and
the loss of business here would be of
far greater consequences than any ben
EFT that might result from the con-
struction of the road from Plant City
to the Manatee region.
