BOOSTERS WILL
RAISE FUNDS
e't'zens Invited to Attend Meet
ing Next Wednesday Evening
COURT HOUSE CLOCK
County Commissioners Offer to Appro-
pirate Five Hundred Dollars If Fort
Pierce Will Raise the Balance.

AT the meeting of the County Com
mlssloners held Wednesday, a resolu-
ton was passed appropriatng the sum
OF $500 for the placing of a clock in the
tower OF the new court house, provided
the town of Fort Pierce raise sum of
$3.50 to complete the purchase of same.
The original plans for the court house
provided for this four-faced clock, but
in cutting down the total expense of
building, among other items, the clock
was eliminated at saving of $3.50. The
contractors now agree to place the
clock in position for the amount origin
ally specified, providing the order is
given on or before the 18th.
Fort Pierce must not miss this Oppor-
tunlty to get this great convenience
and ornament to the city. 1t strikes
each hour and half hour and can be
heard at a distance of four miles on all
ordinary still days. And Fort Pierce
will not miss this chance to benefit the
city at so small an expense. The
Boosters club is already busy, and a
subscription paper will be passed around
today and tomorrow asking for contri-
buttons, and the Boosters will take up
the matter at their meeting next We'd
nesday evening and will raise the bal
ance required-if the patriotism of our
citizens is as alive as usual.
The meeting of the Boosters club
next Wednesday evening will not be
confined to the members of the club
it will be mass meeting of the citizens
of the town and surrounding country,
who have the interest of the city at
heart. Let everyone attend.

ASYLUM INMATE
IN STATE PRISON
ATTORNEY GENERAL HOLDS
SUCH is CASE, CONSTRUCT
IVELY.
Madison. May 10.

That person convicted aud SEN
fenced to state prison and afterward
transferred to hospital for the in
sane is all the time confined in state
prison even though he be not re-
turned there, and is therefore entitled
to all the diminution of time for good
conduct, etc, as provided by law as
though he served continually in the
state prison, is the opinion of Attor-
ney General Frank L. Gilbert.
The opinion was rendered yester-
day in response to a request by Sec
Rotary NJ J. Tappans Of the state
board Of control, the question arising
out Of those instances where persons
confined in the state prison became
insane or are insane when committed.
The attorney general says:
A convict, committed to state pris-
on, who on account of insanity has
been transferred to the hospital for
the insane is, in my opinion, in the
eyes Of the law, constructively, at
least, confined in state prison. If
such convict conduct himself in a
peaceful and obedient manner and
faithfully perform all the duties re-
quired Of him, his condition of course
being kept in mind, he is, in my opin-
ion, entitled to the diminution of time
provided in the law.
