First Train In Fitzgerald.

We started out the other day t.
find someone who could recall thu
name of the first conductor and
engineer who brought the first
train into Fitzgerald and the exact
day Of the month on which the
train arrived. We failed in our
mission Notwithstanding we inter
viewed number of parties who
were on the ground before the first
survey of the colony-sOme even
as for back as in July and August
of 1895. TO those of us who were
among the early day colonists this
is not at allstrange because in those
days we lived an ordinary year
each day. We were so busy max
ing history and so many wonder
full events cr0wding in upon us
that we paid no attention to dates
and details. We remainder that
T. ID. Ross, one of Gods noblcmen,
was the conductor from Abbeville
down to Lulaville. Flaningen was
his fireman and perhaps Stokes the
engineer. When we got that far
we were obliged to stick u pin
there and wait for further develop
mentS from the subconcious mind.
A happy thought struck us that
j. L. Jay, Jr., noN of Tifton, was
the first railroad agent at this
place. We made known to him
our modest request for all the in
formation at his disposal Il I'd to
our delight he lifted the curtain
from Memory's Gallery and here
we have it.
"The first passenger train on the
Georgia & Alabama, now the Sea-
board Airline, arrived in FitZger
aid, Feb. Goth 1896 in charge of
Conductor Turner. I forget his
initials. There were two couduc-
tor Turner's who worked on the G.
& A. at that time and both of
themran into Fitzgerald Gu 10 the
Spring of 1896. The one making
the first trip was known by the
HBoysn as "Little Turner" The
other was known by them as
"Crazy Turner and lived at
Americas.
Among the first conductors who
ran into Fitzgerald were Mr..
Glenn and Mr.. Stout, also Mr..
Beckhams, all of whom were clever
gentlemen. Mr.. Stokes was among
the first engineers.
The G. s. A. Office was opened
Feb. 26, 1896 with the following
force in charge: J. L. jay, Jr.
agent; j. S. Clark, cashier; j. W.
Price, Jr., Ticket clerk; Sidney
Jenkins and Frank Clark clerks
and several freight handlers.
The first telegraph office was
opened in the G. & A. depot in
charge of j. L. Jay, Jr., as opera,
tor. John Price sent and received
the first telegraph message handled
in the office or in Fitzgerald for
that matter.
Andraw Dorrenbecker was the
first messenger boy and was a good
one. Andrew is now a first rate
business man in Pennsylvania.
Frank Nicholson was one of our
best employees"

dndianola Reporter.)

We were taken to task this week
for the compliments (?) we have been
handing the council lately because
the town did not have police pro-
lection, on the grounds that it was UNI
called for as it was impossible to get
man to take the job of marshal a.
the salary the city could afford to pay.
Upon investigation however, we find
that there is money in the city treas
ury to pay man reasonable salary
and if the city had a place to put Gull
prits after arrest 1T would not be such
job to find marshal. Certainly no
man is going to take the job when he
knows that all he can do when he ar
rests a fellow is to sit on him until
his trial may come off. One of the
councilmen even intimated to us that
he might have considered acting as
marshal, If no one else would, If the
city had of had place to jug law
breaker We think this is where
the main trouble comes In and if the
city had a Jail there would not be so
much trouble to get a marshal. 1t is
not the Reporters policy to be butting
into other peoples business, but we be-
lieve that this is everyone's business
in general and the councils in particu

SCHOOL GIRLS MISFORTUNE.
shenandoah World)

At the church service last night
looked around, and / saw a woman
who was quite a temperance lesson to
me- l remembered her as a little school
girl-she was a mighty sweet one, and
she developed into sweet, womanly
woman. But she fell in love with
fellow who was a drinker, and she
married him. His drinking grew worse.
and he got so that he would bum his
way to Muscatine and get full, and
bum his way back. But one night as
he was cumming his way home, he
fell from the train and had an arm cut
off This made him nearly helpless,
so far as providing for his family was
concerned. and this little girl woman,
thin and delicate, has to do lot of
work on the outside to provide for
herself and four little ones. But in
spite of the drink and misfortune and
all. she keeps sweet and nice. AS l
looked at her last night, / pitied her
from the bottom of my heart, and [
wished there had never been such a
thing as drink.
