TAX LEVY IS HIGH.
County High School VIII Get Bunch
Of Money.

The tax levy for the county high
school is causing considerable aston
isbment among property owners, y
is placed at .OOO5 which looks small
but as the county valuation is $685..
600, 1856 it raises sl9,l5o for the school
which is pretty high when i is con-
sidered that only about l76 pupils at
tend. Abilene under this levy will
pay about $4,000 for the county high
school next year and does not send a
pupil there. A protest viii probably
be made on such heavy levy. 1t is
said that the high school board ex-
poets to use some Of the money to
build an addition TO the school build
ing but it would seem that the right
way to raise money for that is to is
sue bonds.

the Wright brothers are the leaders
in aerial navigation.
The average opinion Is perhaps pest
summed up by the Figaro, which de-
clares that it was not success, but
a triumph, adding: This decisive
victory creates revolution in the
scientific world"
This man Wright" exclaims an
other writer, has conquered the air.
M. Bleriot, the momoplanist who
witnessed the fight, frankly admitted
that the Wright machine is far su'
perior to anything yet invented. But
wait a little while" added Bleriot, in
a short time Wright will be equalled
perhaps surpassed for aviation VIII

imagine"
Mr.. Wright told the Associated
press Sunday that he was even EN-
barrassed Saturday by an absence Of
wind. On this point Mr.. Bleriot said:
i'Mr. Wright's aeroplane will fly IN
the wind at the beck and will of the
operator"
Several Of the newspapers dwell
with delight Of Mr.. Wright's marvel
Gus control of his machine and cal
attention to his taking corners anc
angles almost terrifying in theii
sharpness.

She Killed Her Father.

PURvIs, MISS, December 30-Mrs.
Lena Richardson fairfield came 30
miles across country to surrender
for killing her father, John Richard
son, which, she asserts, she did in
defense of herself and her mother.
Richardson had become enraged at
his daughter when she married re-
Gently against his wishes. He COM
PEELED the girl to return home, and
then, imbibing freely of Christmas
liquor, began to abuse the girl and
her mother, so the former says.
Richardson went out in the yard to
get a stick to beat the women, and
upon his return his daughter met
him at the door with a shotgun. He
failed to heed warning Of a shot
aimed at the floor, and as he ad-
vanced the girl fired again, the shot
entering his stomach. He died the
next morning. On the advice of
friends, the young woman came here
to surrender herself to the sheriff.
Richardson killed a man in this
county several years ago, but was
pardoned from the penitentiary by
the governor.

Foul Play Suspected.

BATEsBURG. Dec. 29.-Speculation
is still rife as to how Mr.. ]. E. Wertz
came to his death on the evening of
the 24th inst. It will be recalled
that Mr.. Wertz's body was found
near the S. & K. junction with the
skull fractured and otherwise bruised
and mangled. The coroner's jury
returned a verdict that he came to
his death by being struck by a pass
ing train. There are others, how
ever, who believe that he was MUIR
dered and robbed and then his body
was placed on the track. 1t was
known that Mr.. Wertz had consider
able money about his person and

Shot by Crowd of Negroes.

WAYcRoss, GA., Dec. "a. To-day,
shortly before noon, Wallace Dyal, a
woodsman employed by W. L. Hin
son & Co. at a turpentine still about
18 miles from Waycross, was shot
down by a crowd Of negroes who
were fighting among themselves.
Before dying he shot and killed in
stantly two negroes.
A report reached Waycross with a
request for the sheriff and deputies
at II o'clock and since that time
nothing further has been received
though arrests are expected tonight.
The negroes, so it appears, were
drinking and a fight started among
them. Mr.. Dyal was nearby and
went to separate the fighters. They.
or others around, did not like this in
reference and fired on him. He fell,
but was able to use his pistol with
telling effect.
