Here is another case reported by
the Jackson Daily Wing in which
a homeless and friendless girl
would be justified in being her own
avenger, as in the case recently re
ported from Toone in which a girl
shot and killed the man who had
wronged and ruined her.
The Wing Of January Bird says:
"Miss Nina Taylor gave birth to a
nine pound baby girl yesterday
morning at an early hour in the
Nashville, Chattanooga and St..
Louis Railway depot in this city.
Miss Taylor is the girl who was
empIoyedby a farmer named Smith
near Beech Bluff and compelled by
him to submit to his treatment.
She was in this city some time ago
and went to Mercer, but came back
to Jackson after being refused a
home by her sister at that place.
The child was born in the ladies'
waiting room, and the mother was
attended by DR.. J. T. Jones. JIG.
Carter, esq. secretary of the United
Board of Charaties, obtained a
home for them on Middle avenue"
The shotgun remedy is none too
severe to everyone who believes in
the virtue Of woman and the pro-
lection Of home and family.

AMONG the new bills introduced
in the general assembly is one to
make the punishment for carrying
revolvers and pistols more severe.
The bill would impose a fine of $50
and the person convicted of the Of
Tense sent to jail for at least four
months and not longer than eleven
months. On the same line another
bill was introduced that the penal
ty be changed SO that the matter
OF Imprisonment be made absolute
and not left to the discretion Of the
Judge.

The principal features of the
New Idea Woman's Magazine for
February are, as always, the utili-
tartan, and in patterns, descriptions
of costume, fancy work and domes-
tic affairs there is nothing more
helpful to the home-maker now
published; but the literary features
are equally as valuable. The sto-
ries are charmingly told and we'll
illustrated. Mrs. r. A. Osbo1ne's
paper upon Lincoln, entitled "a
Nations Patron Saint" is especi-
ally appropriate, and Ernest Neal
Lyons poem on Washington en-
phasizes the patriotic element OF
the contents. Mrs. Wilson Wood
rows article upon Mrs, Fiske as
"Mary of Magdala" continues the
series upon the prominent women
of the stage.

The U. S. Civil Service Com
mission reports that for the year
ending June 30, 1902, there we're
1888 persons appointed from its
registers, There was 1892 more
than was ever before appointed in
3 single year. Anyone wishing
information about these positions
can secure it free by writing for
the civil service announcement of
the Columbian Correspondence
College, Washington, d. G. The
commission will hold examinations
to secure young men and young
gomen for these places during
March and April, at Bristol, Chat
tan0oga, Knoxville, Memphis and
Nashville. Many people do not
know that these appointments are
made without political influence
and that a large share of them are
filed by those having only a COM
mon school education, but such is
now the fact.

The building of roads and the
construction of bridges may be
postponed with only inconvenience
and temporary material loss as a
result; but to postpone the build
ing of good schools brings eternal
loss in knowledge, intelligence,
culture and the highest interests
of life to the boys and girls fast
growing through the educable
years of childhood and youth to
manhood and womanhood. A peo-
pie may sometimes be justified in
postponing the one, never in post
poning the other.-Southern Edu-
