BROOKS COUNTRY JAIL EMPTY.

BROOKS COUNTRY JAIL EMPTY.
Quitman Advertiser: For the first
time in several years the Brooks coun-
ty Jail does not harbor a single Grim
inal, either convicted or under war
rant. The doors may stand wide open.
The sheriff's game cocks stand as senti
nels on the walls of "a dismantled and
deserted castle. In the common par
lance Of the street, there is nothing
doing in the criminal line in Brooks
county. This indicates a good condi
ton 1t may be attributable to any
one or all of many causes, but after
all the fact itself is the chief cause OF
qualification to the people.
HOW TO MAKE Coats" EDIBLE.
Waycross Evening Herald When
properly prepared. there are few finer
fish than the Satilla channel cat or blue
catfish. They are clean, fat, well flaw
ored and without bones The follow
ing is one way to prepare them: Take
two cats. Weighing anywhere from enc
and half to three pounds each, pour
warm water ON them, ana scrape with
knife until they are white. Then run
with piece of crocus sack or rough
cloth until the outside mucus is en-
tirely removed. Do not skin them,
clean them. Cut the heads off and
place in shallow stove pan, with a little
water, cut up two onions and six to-
matoes and place over and around the
fish add tablespoonful of butter, salt
and pepper. and place inside stove;
when half done add double handful of
cracker crumbs: when nearly done
sprinkle on a pinch of celery seed, a
tablespoonful of Worcester sauce. and
squeeze half a lemon on the fish. One
more minute in the stove and your
baked catfish is ready to eat, and is fit
for a king.

FARMERS COMBINATION PATENT.
Tampa Morning Tribune: Mr.. L. ].
Knight, an inventive genius from
Braidentown, is exhibiting a model of
q combination sulky harrow and plow
that is SO simple and practicable that
a few minutes investigation win prove
to the most skeptical that it viii be
the greatest boon for the "horny hand
ed sons of toll ever invented. The
implement can be used for a harrow
and il will pulverize the ground as
nicely as a garden rake and within a
minutes time it can be converted into
a large plow that will cut the soi1 as
deep or as shallow as the farmer
might want his ground titled. 1t is
a sulky vehicle and the driver can ride
and do the work of a half dozen ordi-
nary blows. as 1t can be made to cut
from a foot to six feet wide and the
barrow can also be worked at the same
time the Dlow is cutting up the soil.
1t has been examined by many of the
practicable farmers of Tampa and is
pronounced by them a great success.
Mr.. Knight will secure a patent for
his invention within a short time and
viii then Immediately manufacture
them by the wholesale for market.

These trees have as a matter of course

Resolved. That the relatives and

The resolution provides for the appro-

into effect. and that the lepers specified
shall be returned within ten days. The
Speaker shut it out, promptly, by ref
erence to the Special Committee that
visited Mololzai. the report of which
committee has not yet been presented
to the House. A number of minor res
olutions were offered. and the House
took the usual noon recess.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
The afternoon session opened on the
regular order. and right at the matter
of the renewal of the franchise of the
Hawaiian Electrical Company. The
point under consideration was whether
the report of the committee on the bill
should be printed, the very point that
had precipitated the row on Tuesday.
Harris said the ayes and nays had been
called for on this. but the minutes did
not bear him out and the report went
to the Printing Committee on show
OF hands. And that closed the incident
for the present.
The House went on with the regular
order, which was the reading OF Senate
bills on their passage. There were five
Of these passed. and one postponed.
during the afternoon. and three House
bills passed third reading and one ta-
oled. The session ran along smoothly |
