Madison BULGE.

city, about 4 o'clock Tuesday eve
ming, after an illness of two days,
with peritonitis
/ His ailment was so virulent
from the start that his physicians
were alarmed and Doctor Nichols
OF Atlanta was wired for and ar
rived the morning before he died,
but he realized that the case was a
hopeless one and returned i'm
mediately to Atlanta.
The funeral took place yesterday
morning from the Baptist church,
conducted by ex-pastor Carl W.
Minor assisted by Rev. j. G. Elan
ders. The church was crowded
with sorrowing friends and business
men of the city who had closed
their places out of respect to the
dead.
The impressive ceremonies over,
the body was taken to the 1850 A.
B. & A. train, escorted by the
Odd Fellows and the Blue and
Gray association.
w. r. Bowen, j. 3. Turner, L.
Kennedy, E. F. Chambless, E. K.
Farmer, and d. w. Paulk acted
as pail bearers.
The body was accompanied to
Bolton by Mrs. Kate Myers and son,
Teddie, Miss Ona Pouncey, F. P.
BULGE, Miss Adeline Reibsam and
Mr.. and Mrs. J. L. Dorminy.
Mrs. BULGE, who was in Bolton,
and two daughters, Mrs. Pouncy
and Mrs. Anderson joined the fu-
neral party at Atlanta and accom-
panied the body to Bolton, where
it was laid to rest today. Dust to
dust has returned and Major BULGE
is no more.
Madison BULGE was born at
Spartanburg, s. c., May Goth 1880
and was therefore in his 18th year.
He moved to Atlanta in his early
manhood and married Miss Geor-
gia Lasseter who attended his fu-
neral today. He was in business
in Atlanta before the war and was
an eye witness to Gen. Sherman's
visit in 1864.
He came to Fitzgerald in the
early days, 10 years ago, when it
was shack town, and bought con-
siderable centrally located proper
| ty, the enhancement in value of
which added largely to his estate
which, including a nice home and
farm at Bolton, Ga and some At
lanta real estate makes a consider
able fortune which is probably left
to Mrs. BULGE and four children,
Mrs. Anderson of Atlanta, Mrs.
Pouncy of Bolton, Mrs. Myers of
this place and Mr.. f. P. BULGE of
Columbia, S. c., and the children
of Mrs. j. l. Campbell, who died
here two years ago last May and
the children of Mrs. Shields, who
died in Atlanta several years ago.
Major BULGE was at the time of
his death engaged in building one
of the handsomest blocks in the
city ON the corner of Pine and
Main street. He was a conserva
tive but enterprising business man
and will be greatly missed in Fitz-
gerald where he spent about half
his time.

DEFEAT OF MAYOR dunno
Birmingham Age-HeraId.

In a poll of nearly $4,000 Mayor
Dunno has been swept aside by about
IL, 900 votes. No doubt the selection
Of delegates to the next democratic
national convention, and a new city
charter and a score of other matters
entered into the contest, but it was
after all street car bdttle-a battle
that the straphangers decided. As
they voted so the election went.
Mayor Dunno and the democratic
party stood for Immediate municipal
ownership by means of condemnation
proceedings IN the courts This would
have involved the raising of a large
sum of money, and also a vast extern
sion of municipal patronage in 4 Guy
none too clean in that respect
Candidate Busse and the republi-
cans stood for an acceptance of the
street car ordinances passed by the
city council over the mayors veto and
submitted to a referendum at the
election just held. Those ordinances
were accepted by 10000 majority, and
those ordinances operated TO make
Busse mayor Under those ordinances
the street railroads Of Chicago are to
be conducted hereafter upon reVOk
able license. The traction companies
agree to pave, clean, repair and
sprinkle the streets they use; to give
transfers to all points; to spend
from $40 100000 to $50,00O,000 IN eX-
tensions and improvements, all much
needed; to pay 80 per cent of the net
profits to the city. or, if the people
prefer, TO reduce fares to a like eX-
tent, and the city may at any time
take over the lines on the payment
of not more than S50,000,000 besides
whatever sum shall hereafter be eX-
pended in improvements approved by
the cityS officials.
This is the scheme that the strap
hangers accepted, because ii promised
to be speedier in operation than
Mayor DUNES plan for immediate
municipal ownership. The straphang
ers did il. The traction companies
had permitted their lines to fall into
slOvenly condition, and the vast num-
bers in Chicago compelled to use daily
the street cars went TO the polls and
voted Dunno down and Busse up.
That was all there was of it.

the mans life to the mans character
II is better than biography; it is
characterization.
Great and StaT-like as was the war
rior," says DR.. Shepherd, the man
is greater 1t is my dis
tinctive purpose to exhibit the life
of our hero IN those critical and all
pervading relations which Constitute
the abiding test of true greatness;
Lee as parent, a husband, a Chris
tian. a gentleman Lee in the
hour of disaster, Lee in the sancity Of
his home, cOnsecrating his energies
to the restoration of d PROSTATE and
desOlate South" Accordingly, he has
taken the significant things for his
most careful aralysis-Lee's visit to
the graves of his father and of his
daughter, his connection with his stu
dents at Lexington, his self-cOntrol
when death came, the spiritual and
moral influence of the man in camp,
council, and college.
DR.. shepherd is in every way fitted
to do this great work: he served long
and hOnOrably in the Confederate
army; he knew General Lee person
ally; he is an accomplished scholar
and author, and has been engaged in
literary and educational work since
the war, having beer superintendent
of instruction, Baltimore. and presi-
dent of the college of Charleston, S.
c., for twelve years He brings
scholarship. experience, knowledge,
love and retrospect To his fascinating
task, and with its beautiful pictures
many of which have never been pub
lished, its wealth of literary graces
and new anecdotes, the book is

PROTECT THE OYSTER.
Jacksonville Times-Union.

Florida has many sources of reve-
nue. Few states have so many. But
nevertheless in her present state of
development, less than ten population
TO the square mile on an average, she
can spare none. Her development as
a producer has been out of proper
ton TO her population. Now, in the
infancy of what promises to be a glO-
riOuS career of production and in
creaSing wealth she needs TO watch
that she be not deprived by the IA
pacity and thOughtleSS greed of q
few men of any one of her present
and possibly future sources of reve-
nue. nor of anything that will add to
her ability TO support a future pOpu-
latiOn of many times the present one
or even to make life more pleasant
TO her coming population.
One of these sources CT revenue
which must be watched with jealous
care is her oyster beds. The Florida
oyster is a delicious article of food.
Canneries flourish in different sec
tons of the Florida littoTal and are
a present source of wealth 20 the
state as well as to the owners. They
should be a permanent means of
bringing money into the state. But
they cannot be if the waste of young
oysters is not stopped
The responsibility for preserving
the oyster rests with the legislature
1t is not enough to pass punitive laws
A pope once issued a bull against a
comet which was speeding toward
the sun and promised to come dan
gerously near the earth. So far as
astronomers could discern the comet
did not swerve an iota from its path
on that account. Some of the laws
passed by the legislature are like
that papal bull.
The subject should be studied by
some member or committee of the
Legislature and law framed some
thing like that of Maryland for the
protection of our oyster beds. The
planting of private beds should be
encouraged by the passage of laws
for the protection of the owners of
such plantations and effective pro-
visions for the punishment of those
who trespass on such property. The
private owner may be relied upon to
preserve the oyster even after the
public beds have been despoiled of
their last bivalve, If such an unhappy
fate should overtake them. But with
out some decided step being taken
the day is not far distant it is said,
when the oyster will be extinct in
Florida.

Than laugh he'd much prefer to cry,
Alas" We hear him often sigh

There's no place on this earth for him.
His chance of heaven, too, is slim

His heart is dough, his head is wood

1t seems to us he's in the way,
Nobody presses him to stay,
He sullies cen the brightest day

Somebody ought to tell him how
To laugh a bit and do it now
The pessimistic man.
He fails to get his share Of bliss,
The best of life he's bound to miss

And twist his face into a smile.
He'd find joy easy to beguile-

Two Characteristic Features
Of Albert Jennings's
Interview.

The interview with T. Albert Jen-
nings, published in The Journal yes
terday, on that gentleman's probable
candidacy for governor, was all the
way through characteristic of the
man, but it contained two features
which emphasize particularly two
special traits of nature in the man
who in all probability will be the next
governor of Florida.
In replying to the question as TO
what his plan of campaign will be
IL he decides definitely to enter the
race, Mr.. Jennings said:
al shall take no chances In the mat
ter. If do finally go into the cam
paicn ! will make it a winning one,
for ! shall personally direct it, and
will devote to it my entire time and
attention from the day of my an
nouncement until the result is de-
clareo."
Here is the statement of man
who does things-who, when he goes
into a thing, goes in to win. 1t is
the expression of this spirit that has
dominated his business life and has
made him successful in all of his I'M
dertakings and that same spirit will
make him governor of Florida when
he once gets started in the race.
And following this is another state
ment that is more important to the
people themselves than anything else
which Mr.. jennings had to say.
Listen to the man:
You can say to the people of Flor
ida for me that should finally decide
10 enter the fight | will DE the candi-
date of no man, faction or corporation,
but that | shall appreciate the vote
of every democrat, whatever may be
his opinion or views on the fractional
differences in the ranks of the demo
cratic party of this state.
IF am elected governor | will be
the governor of the whole people,
and not the instrument of any corpo-
ration, faction or set of men. !
shall accept no contribution to my
campaign fund from any source what
ever, either from individuals or COR
porations, and I shall expend no
money in the campaign, the purpose
of which L would not be willing for
IF l am ever governor of Florloa
] will be governor in fact as we'll
as in name; with no campaign debts
or obligations 40 pay through eXecu-
tive appointments. and no promises
to fulfill for any one save only such
Pledges as / may make direct and
openly TO the people in my platform"
Was ever such a statement issued
TO the people Of Florida, or of any
other state, before?
Have we ever had the privilege of
voting for a candidate for governor
who could announce that he would
accept no contribution to his cam
paign fund from any source whatever,
either from individuals or corpora
tions7
These two declarations from Albert
Jennings that when he goes in
1T will be TO win; and second, that
ne will accept no contributions what
ever to his campaign fund-stamp
him as man whom the people can
look to with an assurance of success
and on whose absolute independence of
all Interior influences they can rely
with the most implicit confidence.
These two utterances form a plat
form in themselves and that platform
will commend itself to every patriotic
citizen of the state.
