EFFICIENT OFFICERS
BOOKS OF rAYETTE COUNTY OF
 FIcIALs IN GOOD SHAPE.
Small Errors Found in Accounts Of Ex-Tax Collector and Pro
 bate Judge-splen-
 did Showing.


 Colonel Michael L.. Woods, Assistant Examirer of Public Accounts. has just filed a report with the Governor on the oficials of Fayette County.
 He reports that Hon. Thomas E. Good win, Probate Judge. has not prepared or caused to be prepared book tn wmcn to keen the accounts of licenses issued. but depends entirely on the stubs Of his receipt books. and because of this fact shortage of $S15 Is charged against him. It appears that the license of Henry Parks. paid July 1st. was not included in the account of the judge when his report was sent to the Auditor. and SIS has been charged to his account with the State. The Assistant Examiner says in his report that he made careful ex- animation of the ofiice and could hId no blank book for the purpose of keep ing accounts of licenses issued, and Judge Goodwin says that when he took cfiArge of the office no such book could be found, and he supposed the accounts had been kept by the receipt stubs. With this exception the Examiner says the books were in excellent condition. A shortage of $s.S2 was also found In the accounts of ex-Tax Collector William A. Hyde, which was the result of an error discovered after his report had been sent in. This was the result of an oversight in which taxes collected from s. T. Walker was left of of the report. but the stub book showed that payment had been made. This was discovered by the collector and the Auditor notified. but after the statement had been made out. As in the case of Judge Goodwin. the shortage was not intentional and the books were otherwise in excellent shape and the office is being conducted in a very satisfactory manner.
 The books of all the other officials of Fayette County were found in good con dition, and the Assistant Examiner re- ports that the officers are efficient and careful

GIVEN NEW HEARING NEGROES WERE CONVICTED OF CONSTRUCTING RAILROAD Conflict in Testimony Ground on Which New Trial Was Granted. Case Will Be Reset at Next
 Term of Court.

After hearing evidence for two hours yesterday morning. Judge w. H. Thomas of the Criminal Division of the Mont gomery City Court, granted new trial to Mack Goss and Henry King, negroes. convicted in December of obstructIng a railroad track. The jury fixed the pun ishment at twenty-five years imprison- ment for each of the negroes. The ne- groes gave notice of motion for new trial pending their sentence.
 Some timc about Christmas, 1900, two negroes, Judge Berry and James James discovered a crosstie chained across the tracks of the Seaboard Air Line, about two miles from Montgomery. They re- ported to the Sheriff that the tie had been placed across the tracks by Mack Goss and Henry King. The negroes were arrested and were subsequently, indicted.
 The lawyer for the negroes moved for a new trial on the ground that there was a conflict in the testimony of Judge Berry and James James. and that they were unworthy of belief. Testimony was taken and the matter was argued.
 Judge Thomas finally granted the mo, ton for a new trial and the case will be reset at the next term of the court.

so much trouble during the summer
OF 1885 until they were safely de.

a GIANT FUCHSlA.
Ma sniGcent Specimen of This Plant in
Portland. Oregon.


The largest and ri0st magnificent
fuchsia plant in this city, and prob
ably in the state, is to be seen in the
garden of Robert Foulkes, says the
Portland Oregonian. 1t springs from d
single stem some three inches in diam
eter. but divides into three at the sur
face of the ground. The top is seven
feet in height and is twenty-six feet
in circumference, and is loaded with
hundreds of beautiful flowers in every
stage of development, while the ground
beneath is carpeted with fallen bios
SONS. The plant would have been
much higher and broader but for the
fact that it has to be put in the cellar
every winter and the limbs have to be
trimmed off. Ihe height has to be re-
duced so that it can stand under the
floor above. \ rather remarkable thing
is that when the plant is dug up at the
beginning of winter, ii is in ful) foliage
and still loaded with blossoms Up
roofing almost any plant in this con-
dition would prove fatal. but the fuch-
sia takes it all as a matter of course
and soon after it is houses the leaves
and flowers fade and drop off and the
plant gees to sleep. AS soon as it feels
the breath of spring it begins to put
forth tender shoots in profusion. as a
hint that it wants to get out of doors.
When it is planted out, it starts in
growing and blowing" as If to make
up fof lost time. Mr.. Foukes has sew
eral other varieties of fuchsa in his
garden, one of which produces beauti-
ful blossoms eight inches in lengtl!
from the end of the stem to the END
of the petals
