brought up in this town and had lived here
all her life until about six years ago
The past two years she has been in Au-

for her many friends who extend their
heartfelt sympathy to the family in their
great bereavement, which is the first death
to occur in a happy family of u children.
Mrs Cove is survived by her parents, five
sisters and six brothers, all of whom live
in this town, with the exception of one
brother. Lee, who lives in Chesterfield.

A RACE WITH A KING.
A Returned Tourists Story of Brush
With Alfonso of Spain.

Of the many residents of Baltimore who
have passed the summer in Europe prob
ably none attained the distinction of Sam
uel G. Rowland, vice-presdent of the In
ternational Trust company, who while
motoring in Spain met King Alfonso of
the land of Cervantes. In fact, he met the
king three times.
The meetings occurred on the road from
.Biarritz to San Sebastian and although
interesting were brief The first time the
king passed Mr.. Rowland, then Mr.. Row.
land passed the king and finally Alfonso
passed Mr. Rowland. They did not speak
as they passed by.
his auto race with the monarch Mr.. Row
land smiled
I'm little dubious of this king bust
ness" said Mr.. Rowland democratically.
First, there's the danger of international
complications, and then there's lese ma
jesty to be considered.
"Your autos were going in the same
direction!' was suggested.
Yes assented Mr. Rowland.
And which was aheadT'
''Well, we were ahead at first, but the
to gain on him-whether my son, Harvey,
who was driving, opened the throttle a
little, | am hardly prepared to say. At all
events we gained on him slowly, and
finally passed him."
"And them"
''NIost persistent king | ever saw" said
Mr. Rowland seriously. .In the following
mile his machine touched the ground only
three times by actual count, and then he
passed us"
"And who was ahead at the tinish?"
''Well, noh1esse oblige, you know, and
we let Alfonso keep the lead"
According to Mr.. Rowland, the rival
autos were within hailng distance for
about four miles, and time went quickly
on that distance. Mr.. Rowland and his
family were in a 500 touring car and
King Alfonso was in a machine of an
other make and about the same horse

nathy, Instructor of Ar1 at the Flor

The following "whereaseS' will
show upon what grounds this applica-
ton Cor relief was--based. s.r
Whereas, Inez AberHathy, as in
structor in art at the FTorida Female
College, an institution maintained by
the state of Florida, having been in
formed of the lack of equipment in
art at that college, had, in October,
1905, brought to Tallahassee and
placed in the college building known
as West Hall, at the disposal Of The
students of the college her entire COL
lection of pictures, casts, models,
etc, valued intrinsically at five thous =
and (S5, OO0.OO) dollars and
Whereas, the students of the
Florida Female College had from Oc-
tober, 1905, to December, 1906, free
Iy used said private collection for
their own good in their college work,
and
Whereas, said collection belonging
TO IneZ Alternately was utterly de-
stroyed by fire by the burning of the
dormitory known as West Hall, on
the night o. December %, 1906, and
Whereas, said Inez Alternately,
there being no man on the campus at
that time, in her efforts to save the
lives OF the girls sleeping in that
building deliberately sacrificed her
collection, which otherwise she could
have saved, and
Whereas. said collection repre-
scented the life work of the said Inez
Abernathy, the expenditure of all her
means and several years labor,
therefore" the legislature voted to
Miss Alternately the sum of $4,000, as
reimbursement for the loss she had
sustained.

passed at a meeting Of the board of
control:

THE GOVERNOR
SIGNS 4 FEW
THREE BILLS PASSED
BY THE LEGISLATURE AND AL
LOWS RACE TRACK BILL TO
BECOME LAW WITHOUT HIS
SIGNATURE.

Tallahassee, June I4-Gov Gill
christ has signed three of the most
important general bills passed by the
recent legislature, and allowed anoth-
er to become a law without his sigma
ture. This last was the bill popularity
known as the Race Track Bill" the
| true title of which reads as follows.
IAN act to prohibit bets or wagers
upon the result o. any trial or con-
test of skill, speed or powers of en-
durance of man or beast, and to pro-
hibit any person from becoming the
custodian or depository of any money
or other thing bet or wagered upon
any such result, and forbidding any
person from aiding. assisting, or
abetting any such acts, and repeating
section 1851 of the general statutes
of the state of Florida"
The governor declined to sign this
bill because of an irregularity in its
verbiage. 1t will be noticed that the
last clause reads: and repeating
section 1881" when. in fact, the bill
repeats nothing.
The next bill was one presented by
Hon. w. T. Cash, dubbed by Governor
Gilchrist. "Cash's Pure Food Primary
Law" AS enrolled, the title reads.
An act to require sworn statements
of campaign expenses from candi-
dates in primary elections, requiring
certain duties of inspectors in proper
ly Identifying persons to whom bal
lots are given in primary elections;
providing for the absenting of en-
pioyees from their work on primary

date IN the primary on primary day;
providing FOr the compensation of in
spectors in the primary in certain
cases; prescribing penalties Cor the

The fourth was the state appropria-
ton bill, and the sections devoted to
appropriations for the higher insti-
tutions of learning in Florida were
thoroughly threshed out by the gov
ernor in the presence of the joint
boards of education and control. 1t
was only after an exhaustive exami-
nation into the needs of these insti-
tutions during which Mr.. Bryan, the
chairman of the board of control, was
called upon to answer iDnumerable
questions, that the governor, in the
presence of the two boards, signed
this bill.
A LAW DEPARTMENT.
Mr.. Bryan asked Tor and, ate"
some discussion, received FOR the
board of control authority from the
board of education to eStab lish a law
school at the state university This
is not to be done Immediately, how
ever, but plans are to be perfected
so as to be put into effect as soon as
practicable. AS the study Of law is
considered special course, the stu
dent in this department will be re-
Quired to pay a small yearly fee.
The establishment o. a law depart
ment in the university has been a pet
idea of Mr.. Bryan's for some time,
and he was manifestly pleased that
his appeal to the board of education
met with such ready response.
Meeting with the boards we're DE-
A A Murphree, president of the un-
iversity, DR.. Edward Conrad, presi-
dent of the Woman's College, and
Prof Rolls. director OF the expert

Later the board of commissioners
of state institutions met in joint ses-
sion with the board of control, and
in the distribution they made OF the
amounts appropriated. Cor the use Of
the university, $4,000 was voted to
the erection Of a new building for the
use of the experimental station, and
one for the department of science.
Mr.. Bryan urged this expenditure as
being very urgent, the need for these
buildings being even greater tnan
the need for a new academic building
for the Woman's College.
