SCHOOL TRUSTEES
WIN BIG VICTORY
U. S. Court of Appeals sustains
Judgment Of q. S. Court.
OVER $1,000 WAS INVOLVED

Suit Was Brought Against United
States Fidelity and Guaranty Com
pany. 5ondsmen. for Non-Fulflmen
of Contract on Gainesville School.
The United States Circuit Court OIL
Appeals OF New Orleans has recently
rendered a decision which means a
great deal for the Gainesville Graded
and High School, enriching the treas
ury to the extent OF more than five
thousand dollars. In other words the
court at New Orleans has affirmed the
decision OF the United States Court for
the Northern District in Florida, at
Jacksonville, which was rendered in
favor Of w. w. Hampton, George W.
Hyde and Jas. H. Vidal, as trustees
for the Gainesville sub-school district.
The judgment was against the
United States Fidelity and Guaranty
Company, bondsmen for the contrac-
tor, for the non-fuliiIment OF con-
tract in the construction of the
Gainesville Graded and High School
building. The amount involved was
81, ll5 90 being a deficit in the con-
tract OF r. p. Williams q Co, OF De-
catur, Ga. The case was brought in
the circuit court OF Alachua county,
but upon motion OF attorneys for the
defendant, was transferred to the
United States Court for the Northern
District OF Florida, where a verdict for
the principal and costs, aggregating
So, 1870 %, was returned The defend
ant then made appeal to the United
States Court at New Orleans, with the
result stated.
The original contract, so the board
OF trustees state, was $l5,Sl35o. The
deficit was the money advanced by the
trnstess to complete the building.
This suit was brought September
"a, 1901, and has since been pending.

Neither Read Nor Write.

Raleigh. N. c., Jan. 31.-Charles Gil
bert, the mail carrier between the
mountain towns Of Burnsvllle and Ivy,
who is in jail for robbing mail pouches,
has made a full confession to Post.
Office Inspector Reddy.
He first succeeded in getting some
registered letters through a hole with
stone In a,pouch, this time getting
$2.23O, all except $50 in checks. He
did not know that the checks were
useless. so far as he was concerned, so
he buried them and the registered
letters, pocketed the money and re.
signed as carrier. lie then rode
around that section looking at various
farms, intending to buy one with the
checks. Gilbert is young, says he
cannot read or write and that he does
not know a 81 from a $40 bill. He is
now in jail at Burnsville.

why DOCTORS FAIL
AND LIES. PINKHAM SUCCEEDS
Plain Reasons Are Here Given TO Explain
Why Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound Cures When Doctors Are POwerless

Awomanis sick; some disease peculiar
to her sex is fast developing in her sys-
tenn. She goes to her family physician
and tells him a story, but not the whole
story.
She holds something back, loses her
head, becomes agitated, forgets what
she wants to say, and finally conceals
what she ought to have told, and thus
completely mystifes the doctor.
| is it any wonder, therefore, that the
doctors fail to cure the disease Still
we cannot blame the woman, for 10 is
very embarrassing to detail some Of the
symptoms Of her suffering, even TO her
family physician.
IL was for this reason that years ago
Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, de-
termined to step in and help her sex.
Having had considerable experience in
treating female ills with her Vegetable
Compound, she encouraged the women
of America TO write to her for advice in
regard to their complaints, and being a
woman, 1t was easy for her ailing Sis
tiers 10 pour into her ears every detail
of their suffering.
In this way she was able to do for
them what the physicians were unable
TO do, simply because she had the
proper information 10 work upon, and
from the little group OF women who
sought her advice years ago a great
army OF her fellow-beings are to-day
constantly applying for advice and re-
lief, and the fact that many thou
sands Of them have been cured by
following the advice Of Mrs. Pinkhan
during the last year is indicative of the
grand results which are produced by
herunequaled experience and training.
No physician In the world has had
such a training, or has such an amount
OF information at hand TO assist in the
treatment of all kinds of female ills,
from the simplest local irritation TO
the most complicated womb diseases,
This, therefore, is the reason why
Mrs. PinSham, in her laboratory at
Lynn Mass, is able to do more for the
ailing women OF America than the
family physician. Any woman there
fore, Is responsible for her own suffer
Ing who will not take the trouble TO
write 20 Mrs, Pinkham for advice.
The testimonials which we are con-
stantly publishing from grateful wo-
men establish Beyond a doubt the
power Of Lydia Il. Pinkham's Vegetable !
Compound to conquer female diseases.

Four Year Old Boy Meets
Death in Heavy Flamea.
Damaging Fire Starts In North
Part of Town-Two Dwell
ings Burned to Ground.
Another Scorched.

One person burned to death, two
dwelling houses and several outhcuses
completely burned to the ground and
the rear OF another shattered and badly
scorched is the story Of conflagration
that occurred in this city this morning
while the tircmen fought the flames with
heroic efforts yet under great difficulties.
Some children were playing In va
cant house, No. 7l8 Pixies Peak avenue,
that belonged to John Dearing, the dead
city jailer and it is supposed they were
careless with matches. The house in a
few moments burst into flames and all the
children except Warren the four yesr old
son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Roy Donnell sue
ceeded in making their exit from the
building but for some unaccountable
reason the lad remained within the
burning building and was burned to
death. The flames fearfully burned the
boy around the head, shoulders and up
per part of the body and the feet were
burned of entirely. The flesh on the
head was burned to crisp and the
skull is plainly to be seen. Marshal
Tabor brought the body to the city Jail.
The Dearing house was burned to the
ground and the flames communicated
to the house occupied by Mrs. Mary W.
Ricketts, and the Rambo terrace, these
buildings being located on either side Of
the vacant house in which the fire orig
mated. The Ricketts, house was burned
to the ground as was also large bayn
and other outhouses at the rear Of the
buildings.
The Rambo terrace is six-compart-
ment affair but all Of the sections we're
not occupied. The entire back OF the
terrace was badly scorched and nearly
all the windows were broken. In one or
two instances the fire broke through the
Rambo terrace but all the occupants
succeeded in getting their furniture out
before any damage was done to them.
The loss is said to be something like
$1,000. Mrs. Ricketts, succeeded in saw
ing most of her furniture.
George Irwin. son of Mr. and Mrs.
Gavin Irwin, knew that the Donnell boy
was in the burning Deering house and
made an heroic attempt to gain entrance
into the house but the heat was SO in
