LADY FALLS FROM THE BUGGY
While Frightened Horse Continues on
His Way.

Miss Lucille Dunn was thrown from
buggy while riding on jackson
street yesterday afternoon, sustaining
painful injuries, the full extent OF
which were not fully known. The bug
gy was broken considerably, as the
frig htened horse proceeded to run.
the accident, it seems, was cause by
thu bre aking of the king bolt holding
the body of the vehicle to the forward
axle, thus allowing the body TO fall,
unsupported. to the ground.
In this way Miss Dunn was thrown
forward upon her arm and side.
AS quickly as possible hack was Sc
cured and the young lady sent home,
where a physician attended her iDJu"
ries. She complained If great pain in
her side and right arm, and for time
it was feared that her injuries were
quite serious.
In the meanwhile the horse freed
himself from young Cliff Chappel',
who was driving, and went speeding
down Jackson street with the front
wheels dangling at his heels.
Efforts made to stop The horse only
served to brighten b m the n ore, and
he ran twice around the bic OK. A
last he struck an iron pott in front o
the Bank of Southwestern Georgis
with sufficient force to bend it, thus
checking him.
At later hour yesterday it was Stat
Ell that Miss Dunn's injuries, forum
ately, were not of any serious nature

While Theodorus, the king of the

Perhaps the net did not fill up with

 in congress to appropriate sso, ,ooo, : 900 ito promote the construction of a national system of postal roads, facilitate the extension of tht. postal service and to lessen the dependence of the agricultural and
 industrial interests of the country upon railroads for transportation.
 This measure Is not original with Mir. Hearst. ln recent years simi- lar bills have been introduced by congressman and senators from
 the north and the south. Mir.
 Hearst's bill is different only in its increased amount and the wording of its title-the latter probably being done to obviate some of tie narrow objections of the more radical state rights advocates It IS well to guard state rights a.

invasion of too centralize d national government, but let it e remembered that the main object of both state and national govern. ments should be the promotion ot the best interests of the people. A hundred years ago national aid was given to the building of good roads. Toll gates came in and an unfortunate issue of toll control raised the question of states rights which ended in the withdrawal of national aid
 The national government has alded railroads, appropriated mil lions for rivers and harbors and done other things to further the easy transportation of products after they have come to the buyers hands, but the producer has been left to drag his crops of grain lumber, mineral, etc. through bad roads at great expense and often loss, not only to himself but to the general prosperity Of the country
 To haul ton a mile, 1t costs our farmers nearly double what it costs those of France, Germany and other European countries where governmental aid is given 10 the building of better roads. Would it not be well if our national law makers could strip this great question of all it's Insignificant branches and consider 1t only m its bearing upon the most i'm portant. the most numerous and the most industrious as well as the least favored class of our growing population?
