A negro woman was taken to the
Police Court the other day for the first
time for some misdemeanor. She went
hysterical, and when sentenced to the
workhouse she made running jump
for a window, instead of the cage, and,
eluding the officers, went thru the win
dow, sash and all. and landed on the
pavement so feet below. A hurry call
was sent for the ambulance, and people
gathered about expecting to gather the
woman up on a scoop shovel. she
seemed to be dead, but on arrival at
the hospital came to life, and she had
only few bruises. Not a bone was
broken.

Fitzgerald stands well in respect to rail-
facilities. These highways of commerce
with their fast and faster trains have
brought the people into close association
and intercommu nication with telegraph
and telephone lines reaching into every
village and hamlet is now but matter
of minutes. Telephones connect the
farm houses, making neighborhoods OF
the country where neighbors often live
miles apart. Rural route mail wagons
deliver letters and papers in every
neighborhood. Over 125 miles are COW

Legislature authorized the Governor to
establish an agricultural high school in

provided annually to pay current ex-

provide at least 200 acres of land and
to erect buildings and equip the schools.
Different localities sought to secure
the location of these schools. The re-
suit was such that it is inspiring the

There is room and opportunity in the

material and climatic advantages not
possessed by the North, and Northern

men to come, and come to-day, and
help in the great work now under way
in developing the resources OF farm, OF
forest, of mine and of quarry. The en-
richmcnt of the South is not Southern

money is good from circumference to
