Outlook for the Fruit Crop Good.
Other Matters of Interest.
Swainsboro, Ga. March 25.-From
indications, the fruit crop in Emanuel
county this year will be the largest
and best in several years. Should the
seasons continue good, lots of lucious
peaches will be shipped from the
neighborhood of Swainsboro during
the summer.
One day this week Mr.. L. p. Rentz
bought $4,000 worth of stock in the

coroner's office.
Some Swainsboro people are suffer
ing from the effects of vaccination.
The smallpox situation in the county
has ceased to be alarming, and those
afflicted at Stillmore are said to be
rapidly recovering.
An effort is being made by Emanuel
county citizens to secure free rural
mail deliveries. Not route has been
established in the county, but the au-
thorities at Washington are at work
on the matter, and it is probable that
within the next year there will be
several routes. The roads are in bet
ter condition than ever before, and
the people feel that they are just as
much entitled to free rural deliveries
as are several of the neighboring
counties which enjoy such facilities.

Moody Attempts Suicide.
r. L. Moody. the young Albanian
who has been in Jail here for several
weeks charged with passing worthless
checks. attempted to Kill himself again
yesterday afternoon, by eating several
match heads. AS soon as it was
learned that he had taken the poison
medical attention was given him, and
he is now out of danger, although he
is still quite sick. He wrote a letter
to his mother yesterday morning de-
claring that he would kill himself un-
less he was given his liberty this week.
Moody has made several unsuccessful
