FINE EQUIPMENT
 OF GEORGIA SCHOOL
COLUMBUS CLAIMS TO HAVE THE ONLY MUNICIPAL SCHOOL BUILD ING PROVIDED WITH AUTOMATIC SPRINKLERS AND CHEMICALS.

Columbus, Ga, May 9.--(Special. 1.-The interesting claim is made for Georgia school building that it is probably the only municipal public school building in the United States that is thoroughly and absolutely protected by automatic sprinS- lers and chemical extinguishers.
 The structure in question is Columbus much-talked-of Secondary Industrial school, which has been so widely dis cussed in the educational periodicals of the country as the one institution in America where the members of both sexes are given vocational training at the eX- pense of the municipality in which they reside. In recent years the idea of in dustrial education has become extremely popular in Columbus, where there is d rather remarkable industrial development, due to the utilization of the great water power here, and this school represents the climax of a movement which, beginning with manual training in its simple forms, has become more and more ambitious each year in it's undertakings and accomplish ments.
 Returning to the subpect of the fire protection system at the Secondary Indus trial school, some of the details will be interesting owing to the fact that this IS one of the livest subjects before the school authorities of America today. The Col linswood catastrophe is the one disaster that is imprinted most indelibly upon the public mind, but as matter of fact there have been 5S fires in educational institutions in the United States and Can ada since January 1, according to authen- tic insurance records.
 The automatic system installed in the Secondary Industrial school in this city is of a thoroughly modern type, the prod uct of the factories of one of the leading extinguisher companies of the country. It has connection with both the city water works and with an Independent tank sup ply. It has stood the inspection of in surance experts, and low rate of insur- ance is guaranteed thereby. It not only pays as business proposition, but be- yond all this, hundreds of children within the walls of the building are protected. There are many portable chemical ex- tinguishers on the different floors, but 1t is to the splendid automatic fire extin- guisher system that the board of trus- tees look principally for protection to the property and the lives of the children.

Martin Webster. accompanied by Ida Yarbrough, a pretty miss from Merrimack, applied at the office of the probate judge for license to marry. County Clerk Thomas Jones was about to issue the license, 1t being claimed that the young lady was IS years old. when he thought of his list, to which he referred.

Crops Continue Good.

Despite the cold weather the crop con- ditions continue good, and the farmers as rule are hopeful that at least an av- craze crop will be made. There is more corn planted here than usual, and the cool weather thus far has not affected 1t. The peachgrowers rather expect good re- suits from the cool weather, as 1t will cause more or less dropping of the fruit, which at present Is entirely too thick on the trees to be properly matured.

Farmers throughout this section are very much discouraged over their pros poets for a cotton crop. Owing to the continued rains the plant did not come up and the cool weather has caused much of that which did appear to wither and die. It is the opinion of many that a large acreage will have to be planted over and then a scarcity of seed is being com plained of.

Senator Mallory had been an invalid.
During much of that time he was COM
PEELED to rest in a sitting posture. He
bore his troubles silently and without

friends. He has appeared in this body

important debate or to advocate -~--
measure of interest to the people of
his state and the nation. Nor did he
measure the sum of his duty by the
interests of his state alone.
When he came to die the senate was
sent a sage-one Of his last-re-
uuesting that there be no official fun
eral. He wished no pOmp or display,
but merely to be laid quietly away by
his own people at his own home with
the simple service of the Catholic
prayers for the dead. He asked :
that there be no eulOgy, but Father
Fullerton, who conducted the funeral,
felt that a life so modest, so full OF
lessons for the living. warranted a dis
regard of part of this request at least"
He said that Senator Mallory had
died as he had lived. a courageous
man, religious without pretense. and
a faithful soldier of the cross. There
was no complaining or repining in the
long fight against sufferings which
were a martyrdOm. He showed us
how to live, and when he could not
longer show us that, he showed us
how to die"

CHAPTER VI.

Peg resigned her hands to the strong
ones which were held out to her and for
got that the other man. who must be
Charlie Denton, was taking charge of
Ethel In a moment they were outside
the gates, and Christian Petrie spoke in
a low tone.
"Let us get along to our camp quickly,
Denton. No good explaining till then.
I'll 90 ahead. Come on with me, Miss
Morland. Is your rifle all right, Denton
If you haven't reused the house all we've
got to fear is tigers"
He drew Pegs arm through his and
they set out along the grass grown track
which she had noticed earlier in the
evening There was a little murmur of
sound from the other two. Ethel was
evidently afraid at the mention of a
fresh danger, but Petrie turned and
spoke sharply.
"It's Just as well to be quiet, Denton"
and they went on in silence.
Peg was not afraid. She hardly dared
analvze her feelings, but she felt she was
blissfully happy, with the starry tropical
sky overhead, the moon sinking to its
setting behind the Jungle, the rich scent
of the flowers in the air, the soft wind
that touched her cheek, and, above all,
this man close beside her, his protecting
arm close against her own. There might
be danger-nay, there was danger; these
two men would not have stolen them
away so secretly had there been no dan
ger, and there was another danger from
the wild beasts of the jungle-but she
was happy, cared for and guarded by the
man who appealed to her as none other
in all her life had appealed TO her. She
was glad she had come. The soft rus
things in the jungle on either side that
kept her guardian on the alert seemed
to her a very paean Of happiness, and
she was not daunted by the feeling that
presently she would see Charlie Denton
and have to tell him that they two had
made a very foolish mistake. when they
entered into family arrangement more
than three years ago.
They walked as swiftly as they could,
but the women wore only light shoes,
and il was three quarters of an hour be-
fore they were safe in the long hut built
