Miss Laura Junkins, last week, re-
signed her place in the carlton school

flow room in the Fourth ward in this

exncct good work from her.

sion in his uas we'll. He drove a plug

CURED that shook the earth. The
boys we're hurled back from the well,
thoroughly singed and the rocks land

whole family let the well alone now.
The members of the Fourth ward
got hustle on themselves last week
and secured the Zeb Rush house and
had it fittedsup for school purposes.

doubtless the best that can be secured.
The Fourth ward now has three of
these little houses in use for pupils

of the town claim no ward building is
needed in the Fourth ward. We hope
anyone taking such stand will take
the time to visit these rooms and note
the lack of facilities and then visit
the main school building and notice
its crowded condition still. We tie
lleve no reasonable man or woman
can do this and still claim the Fourth
ward does not need all the room asked
for.

that Gundy Knox and Tom Brooks,
two other young gentlemen of color,
were accomplices in the deal. In
fact, he claims the other boys did the
stealing act and he simply marketed
the stuff and got the money. The
