not only to her sister counties

a number of teachers whose ablli-

This goes to prove not only the
efficiency of the schools of the
county but also the push and am.

Below is gwen a list of some of
the teachers who have secured
positions elsewhere, and who
have left, or will soon leave, TO

Jacksonville. Feb. Oscar w.
Stuckey, the healthy looking Floridian
who declares that he is after the scalp
of one Jack Johnson. heavyweight
champion of the world, was in the
city yesterday, and during the morning
he was examined by DR.. Ralph Smith,
who pronounced him one of the finest
specimens of manhood ever seen. He
was also looked over by Mr.. Mackenzie,
a personal friend of James COrbett,
and last night Mr.. Mackenzie sent a
letter to COrbett that may result in the
clever "Gentleman Jim taking the
Florida boy in hand and developing
him into a fighter.

me. You can say for me that I'd hate
to step in the ring with him six months
from now-that is. if he has a good

Stuckey appears quite anxious to get
into the boxing game. He says he has
always hankered after the ring, and be-
lieves that he will make a success of
the game. Here's hoping that he
proves himself the best that ever put
