ENTITLED TO FUNDS
COUNTY BOARDS MAY APPoRTToN
 TO HIGH SCHOOLS.
Thfs is Tentative RuIing of Atterney General Who Says Apportion- meat is in Discretiop of
 H0mrds.


 Great interest attaches to an oral though unofficial opinion given yes- terday by Attorney General Alex M Garber to the effect that the county boards of education have authority un- der the code to use a portion of the general educational funds for the sup port and maintenance of the new county high schools that have been built or are to be built. It is very probable that such a ruling will be formally made to the Department of Education within the next day or two.
 This seemingly adds powers to the county boards which were already considerably broad. The construction of the Attorney General seems to be that in the amounts to be apportioned to the high schools and the funds that are to go to the elementary public schools the boards are allowed their own discretion.
 This will be a guarantee of ample teaching force in each of the county high schools. Already the institutions are guaranteed q standing annual ap- propriation of s2.000 for their main tenance. In most cases when the suc- cessful community where the schools have been located submitted their bids they pledged certain sums annually to supplement the State appropriation.
 If the State appropriation and the supplementary funds are insufficient the boards are clothed with discretion now to further enhance the stipend for supporting the high schools.
 Over two-thirds of the counties have made arrangements to establish the county high schools in their borders. The sites were selected by the High School Commission. The authority for the county boards to apportion the general fund seems to be derived from Section 17s5 of the new code.

 Away.

Away.
 Decatur, Aug. 20.--( Special. )--Mrs . Liza Vert died at her home on Line street, Decatur. at 3 o'clock this morn ing.
 She was the wife of Colonel s. T. Vert. of Decatur. and the mother of Mrs. Frank Stahinan. of Nashville. Tenn. and of Judge Thomas W. Vert, of Decatur. judge of the Morgan coun. ty Law and Equity Court.
 Mrs. Vert had been in III health for the past two or three years and during the past few months she had grown gradually worse. Some few weeks ago she went to Asheville, N.

Since her return home her condition has been serious
 Colonel Vert. Mrs. stahlman and Judge Thomas w. Vert were present when death came.
 Mrs. Vert was a member Of the First Methodist Church of Decatur and a most earnest Christian woman.

 Mrs. Vert Is survived by her hus- band. Colonel s. T. Vert. and by one son and one daughter, Judge Thomas W. Vert. of Decatur. and Mrs. Frank Stahlman of Nashville. Tenn.

 The people he will bring over will be of the farming casls intelligent and industrious. They will come from Mir. Prineas's native city, Cirigo.

 A mob was in hot pursuit and .ne @ sheriff took his prisoner across tns country to Repton. They boarded the selma train to-day and went to From aton with the intention of taking tne nrisoner to Mobile. At F1omaton the sheriff and deputies were met oy large crowd at the depot and were told that they could not proceed to- ward Mobile, but must take their pris- oner back to where the crime was at- tempted. The officers remonstrsted but the crowd was firm. so they board ed the northbound fast mail.
 The train was stopped few miles north of Brewton and the officers ana negro got off It Is not known what they intend doing. but 1t Is thought they will try to catch the southbound train out of Brewton at midnight to- night.
 Angry mutterings were heard in Flomaton, and it was thought for a while that the negro would be lynch ed there.
 If the sheriff tries to go south to- night, it is very likely he will be in- tercepted and his prisoner taken from him.

Angry Posse Was in Pursuit But Ne gro is Delivered to Sheriff Irwin nt Conecuh
 County Infl

Gariand. Aug. 20.--(Speeial. )--The negro boy who attempted to assault little Miss Watson at her home in Avant early yesterday morning, was captured late last night and by a clever ruse his neck was saved from an angry mob or at least 100 men.
 The boy was captured three miles south of Garland by Garnett Glass and Willie Houston. They were joined by Jack Bridges Realizing that the mob was in pursuit and that the negro would be iynched. Mir. Bridges took charge of the party and made 3 dash for the woods. where the mob was eluded. The boy was delivered to sher- If Irwin of Conecuh County at Ever green and is said that he has been taken from the Evergreen jail to . place of scclusion.
 An angry mob had pursued the ne- gro all of the day and part of the night. and the men expressed chagrin when they found that the negro had eluded them.
 This negro, 1t will be recalled, was seen in the act of attempting to as sault the little daughter of W. r. Wat son, a leading citizen of Avant, early "wednesday morning. He had been eni. pIoyed by Mir. Watson.
