Many Injured In
Fire In St. Paul

ST. Paul, Mimi Dec. 30.-One un-
identified woman burned to death,
three women fatally burned and zen
other persons badly injured is tie
record Of fire which this morning
destroyed the three-story Concord
flat building. The financial loss,
however, will not ne more than $780,
coo.
The fire spread rapidly and the
sleeping occupants of eight flats,
scantily clot1ed, narrowly escaped
death. Most of the injuries sustain
ed resulted from jumping from the
windows of the building.
The fremen were called upon to do
heroic work, in order to prevent 9th
er fatalities, and in several instances
they escaped death by narrow mar
gins. The shivering victims, imme-
diately after escaping from the build
ing were rushed into nearby homes
and given warm clothing. A number
of babies were subjected TO the OK
treme cold, their mothers not having
time to properly clothe them before
leaving the blazing furnace behind.

BIRD MEN MAY
FLY HERE IN
COMING YEAR
is ENDEAvoRING TO GET A
CONTRACT FOR A MEET.
Strong Probability That the Mer-
chants and Business Men General
Iy Will Take Some Definite Steps
Soon. r.

Brunswick has a chance for an ayi-
alton meet and at very reasonable .
figure, too-an amount that can be
raised without any trouble, and there
is a strong probability that the prop
osition will be go.
A telegram was received from the
Curtiss Exhibition Co. yesterday
which makes quite a liberal conces-
sion as to terms. Mr.. Curtiss says
his company has open dates in jan
uary and for this reason he is will
ing to make certain terms.
These flying exhibitions have prav-
en- a success in every place in which
they have been held and there is
no doubt hut that this will also prov G
the case in Brunswick should the
people decide to have one.
1t is probably the biggest advertis-
ing proposition any city can get and
then it is a great drawer of crowds
and visitors always spend money.
The railroads will cooperate, it is
sure, and it will be a general gala
time with thousands of visitors here.
1t is said the Merchants associa-
ton will take the matter up at once
and a definite announcement may be
looked for at once.

Roosevelt or Not.
Taft IS to Run

Washington, Dec. Whether
Col Theodore Roosevelt supports
him or not, President Taft will be u
candidate for denomination in 1912,
sfioaid he be convinced that the PEG
pie want him to return to the White
House.
Mr.. Taft is not waiting to see
which way the political wind blows.
He is not concerned with the ques-
ton of whether, should he make Tie
race, he will be elected or defeated.
The only question which lie will con-
slider will be whether his party wants
lin to be & candidate.
At the present time the friends Of
President Taft are convinced int
he is the logical candidate for 1872.
TGey believe he is the one man " no
can give the slightest hope of a unit
ed party. They believe. moreover,
that from now on he viii grow in
popularity. When some of me
achievements of Mr.. Taft have had

Record Shipments
Whisky to Georgia

More whisky was shipped into
Georgia this Christmas than ever
before in the history of the staet. A
certain south Georgia town of 5000
inhabitants received one day, it IS
stated by a railroad man who knows
exactly what he is talking about,
five full carloads of whisky from
Jacksonville, or one carload for
every thousand inhabitants. Figuring
according to the United States census
methods that one out of every nve
people in a general population is an
adult male, there was solid carload
of ,tooze for every 200 grown men IN
this little Georgia town.
That conclusion, however, would
be somewhat exaggerated, for a
great many of thes hipments wUu7d
probably have been for other smaller
communities in the same county
where no railroads ran, and for the
farmers. But five carloads even FOR
a whole county is going some, even
the prohibition leaders will have to
admit that.

holiday rush just closed, beat all Gor-
mer records ly five days Every piece
of mail matter was out of the office
seNera4-daYs ago and the service run

matter in the mails. This establishes
a new record at the local office. it
means that last year at this time the

HOLIDAY TRADE
HAS BEEN GOOD
MERCHANTS CLAIM HAD BEST
BUSINESS IN THE HISTORY
" &
OF BRUNSWICK.
A Feeling of Optimism Prevails
Throughout the. Entire City on As:.
count of the Fine Trade During the
Holidays.

y News reporter for the past sever
al days has made a canvas amoaS
the merchants of the city and asked
almost every one of them, How was
your holiday husiness?'' With ono
single exception the answer has
been better than ever" +"
Every merchant who handled
Christmas goods OF any description
had a good business and as a result
they will enter into the new year
feeling optimistic
Bank officials say that the deposits
Tor the holidays were the heaviest t.f
any previous year and Judging finan-
cial conditions by this state of lf-
fairs they cnosider times unusuai.y
good. To the mind of the bankers It
evidences prosperity amcng The po0-
pie for when people spend their mon
ey freely during the holidays, it shows
that there is considerable amount
of it in circulation.
or course, there is always more or
less money spent during the Christ
mas holiday season, but some years
there is more spent than others and
this has been a year when much more
OF it was spent. People feel like
spending more for the luxuries and
frivolities of life during Christmas
than at any other time, but the man
ner in which people spent their mon
ay this year indicates an UNUSUAL era
of prosperity
The merchants comment on their
trade for the holidays in an enthasi-
astic manner. They bought heavier
than usual and they have sold heay-
ier than usual. In fact the mer-
chants have been taxed to their ,Hs
most capacity to handle their trade,
not only in the stores but in their
delivery departemnts. They look
forward to the new year with antici-
patton of good era, for with the
increasing brightness of the outlook
for good year in 1911, there is
nothing to cause a feeling of pess-
simiSm
Not only has the holiday trade been
good for the past few weeks, or since
the holiday trade opened up but the
general trade conditions have been
good. Every line of trade has been
good and this accounts for the heavy
bank deposits and the optimistic feel
ing that prevails in Brunswick at
present.
Not only have merchants and bank
ers commented on the fine holiday
trade, but the public generally has
been impressed with the amount OF
business that has been done during
the holidays. The fact that the hol-
| iday trade has been so good inspires
everyone with confidence and it will
do much toward starting the new
year off in an optimistic manner.
Brunswick merchants, bankers and
people generally are we'll pleased
with the results that have been &C.
complished for the past few weeks
and consider business conditions un-
usually good and the outlook for the
new year exceedingly bright Ii is
expected that 1911 will bring much To
the people of Brunswick and that
when it has passed away new era
will be noted

FERTILE LANDS
OF THIS COUNTY
INTERESTING COMMUNICATION
FROM w. c. NANNEY ON AN
INTERESTING SUBJECT,

The following communication Is
from W. c. Nanney, son of DR.. w.
n. Nanney, who is attending the
State College of Agriculture, ami
should be OF interest to every citi-
zen of Glynn county.
To the Editor: TIE fertile fields
of Glynn county have been idle since
the Civil war. AS there is not a com
mercial orchard or truck garden in
the county, now is the time for the
people to begin to farm ON scien-
tific hasis, and cooperate with the
state agricultural college. When
the government soil experts made
tests of Dae soils of Glynn county
they stated that they were vel:
adapted to truck farming, and the
soil was equal to that of Sanford.
Fla, for the growing of celery. If
the farmers of the county would
raise truck for the early mark ct
they could follow close behind that
of Florida and could compete with
them on the market price. The State
College OF Agriculture can furnish
the board of trade with any informa-
tion necessary about which parts Of
the county are best adapted to ce--
tain kinds of vegetables, and how to
till, fertiliZe, grow and ship their
produce AS the land throughout the
| county is flat the growing of fruit
would not be marked success on
account of the lack of air, drainage,
and, too, the high wind from Lhe
ocean would greatly increase the
windfalls about ripening time.
The citrange, a hybrid oragne,
should be given trial, as it may
adapt itself to Glynn county and
prove of some value 1t is large
| handsome new fruit, and is being ex.
perimented with to see if it will
grow in bae temperate zone. I think
the bush fruits can be grown with
success, as the winds do not affect
them as much as it does the larger
fruits. Strawberries, hlackberries
| and grapes could be made profitable
crops if the growing of them was
done from a scientific and business
like standpoint The State College
of Agriculture can help our count,
IN many ways If we take advantage
of the opportunities it affords. 1t
| mas an excellent and well-euuipped
department in horticulture; in 1ne
college orchard are 200 fruit-bear;ns
plants, barn and spray house There
are three spray pumps and full sci
of pruning and budding knives. There
is also well-equipped laboratory foG
| this department.
If the farmers of Glynn county
would send their sons to the State
| College of Agriculture they would re
ceiye benefit from any of the courses
| While there. AS the college of agri
culture is for the farmers, we are the
ones that should work in unison s''tll
| it so as to make this state one oi
the foremost in agriculture. If the
Glynn county farmers take advantage
of the many opportunities that the
! college of agriculture affords Ike
county could soon be made as pres
! porous as before the Civil war, when
| it was among the foremost Of the
| counties of the state in agriculture
| Yours truly, w. c.. NANNY.
