 It is earnestly desired by the committee in charge that catalogues will be asked for by all interested in this section throughout the state and all who have work will make an exhibit. As honest competition forces the bad to give way to the good. it is hoped that this year s exhibition will be one of great credit to the state and increase the efforts of coming years.

PAINTS PICTURES TO
 SUPPORT HER FAMILY Y

Young. beautiful and talented, with an invalid mother and several younger brothers and sisters looking to her as the main support of the family is the true description of one of Birmingham s most ambitious young women, who has recently taken up burdens that usually devolve upon the man of the family. She Is Miss Jenny L. MaeKnight, whose father, the late MT. J. T. Mcknight, was an alderman from one of the North- side wards. At his death she became the head of the family, for her moth CT Is an invalid And the cheerful spirit / with which this young girl has taken up so many responsibilities, her work as an artist, and her tender devotion to her mother would make the prettiest story that was ever written.
 She is a charming artist, and her work is meeting with much success. As with many artists of the south She has found inspiration in the negro type, the ante-bellum slave, now so grey, so

wrinkled, so pathetic. It is only the women of the south who can reproduce perfectly this type. And Miss Mac Knight with few strokes of her brush tells the story. As a water colorist her work Is pronounced to be unusually clever.
 A northern artist saw some of her heads in an art shop up town. They were not for sale but he wanted to buy them and the art dealer let them go. This was the way Miss MacKnights work was intro duced at the north. Since then she has filled several orders
 In Birmingham she is becoming well known for her original score cards and dinner cards There is a great demand here for this class of work, and Miss Mcknight paints and draws so cleverly the miniature figures that suit dinner cards She also paints on china.
 Her work is most creditable for its ar tistic side. and now that she no longer paints just for the pleasure that she finds in it, but because she is striving to take the place of her father in the family, she is working, working, o so very hard!

RIGHT-oF-wAY REFUSED

The Newark Town Council on Thurs
day night for the second time knocked
out spoke in the wheel of progress
when it blocked the electric road by re-
fusing to grant right-of-way over the
streets of the town. The sentiment in
favor of granting franchise was almost
unanimous, but few members of the
Council seemed determined to block the
project and at the same time killed the
proposed trolley line from Chesapeake
City northward to connect with the cleo
trio road at Stanton. 1t is generally con-
ceded that our neighbors made a serious
mistake. An electric road means steady
and healthy growth to any town. In the
Baltimore iSun on Monday appeared the
following headlines: "a Towns Healthy
Growth-What An Electric Road Has
Done For Middletown, Md" The ar
ticle tells of increased population, new
business blocks, ETC., and says Begin
ming with the advent OF the electric road,
six years ago, the spirit of progress took
possession of our people, and then 90
new dwellings have been erected in town.

STATE HOSPITAL QUARANTINE

The Delaware State Hospital at Farm
hurst is again under quarantine, case Of
smallpox having broken out among the
inmates. The patient is William Gross
colored, and the discovery was made
Tuesday afternoon that he was suffering
from the malady. He at once was re-
moved to the Emergency Hospital and
the institution was placed under quaran-
tine. There is considerable mystery sur
rounding Gross's case. He had not been
away from the hospital for several years,
and the only reason advanced for his
contracting the malady is that the germs
of the disease were carried to the institu-
tion in the clothing of some of his friends
who frequently visited him.
During the past few days Gross had
complained of feeling badly. Tuesday
afternoon he was examined by DIR. w.
Fl. Hancker, superintendent Of the insti-
tuition who made the startling discovery
that the man was suffering from small
pox. Accordingly, the man was quickly
taken to the Emergency Hospital and the
state hospital was quarantined and roped
off. Quarantine will be maintained for
twenty days.

FEARED DEATH LESS THAN COURT

Worried because OF indictments against
him for selling liquor on Sunday, Merritt
B. Furry killed himself early Tuesday
morning by inhaling Illuminating gas.
Furry was proprietor of the Pullman
Hotel, at Eleventh and CIaymont streets,
Wilmington, and would have been
placed on trial some day this week to
answer three charges of selling liquor
illegally, and two additional accusations
of trying to influence witnesses not to
appear against him. He was in the
County Court room all of Monday, ex-
pecting to be put on trial, but the prose
cution was deferred. When his wife
went to call him Tuesday about O'Clock,
she got no response from him, and the
door was forced open. Furry was found
lifeless across the bed.
