Pursuing Turkish Fleet

London, Sept. BOA dispatch to the Times from Constantinople says according to latest reports receiveo by the admiralty the Ottoman fleei is making for the Dardaneiles, witt two Italian cruisers following on the port quarter. The fleet is expect ed to arrive at the Dardanelles to- morrow morning.
 Turkeys military strength in Fri poll appears to be inadequate to meet the storm. Two regiments oi cavalry. one infantry division and six batteries of artillery at the most with a few fortress tops and engin- eers would furnish a maximum Of 5000 effective fighting men of which about two thirds are believed to be in Tripoli.
 The attitude of the masses in Constantinople. if Respondent, is calm and orderly.

 Turkish soldiers surrounded the pair and the officer asked for the Turkish commander When taken 10 him, he formally announced that the Italian fleet had been ordered to occupy the town.

 The boat then returned to the de ttroyer which reioined the fleet.

Death OF W. 7. Gown

Mr.. w. T. Gown, a former resident
of Hawkinsville, died at Highlands,
N. c., on March 18th, and was buried
at his old home, Hogsaelpl4ssyille, Ga, on
Saturday last,
Mr.. GOWN was maehinist for the
Lathrop Cotton Oil Co. for about
three years. He was engaged for
the same position when the Thomp-
son Oil Company purchased the
mill, but. declining health compelled
him to resign the position soon
afterwards. Returning to his fathers
home at Hogansville, the malady
developed into tuberculosis, and he
went to the camp at Highlands
about a year ago. Letters and mes
sages to friends here led them to
hope for Mr.. GOWNS ultimate recov-
cry; in fact, only a few weeks since
he wrote to friend here that he
expected to return to work at his
favorite occupation by the coming
fall.
1t was the writer's privilege to be
intimately associated with Tom Co.
vim for several months, and he
belonged to the class of citizens
who are better liked the more one
knows them. He had scores of
friends here who were devoted to
him, and to whom the news of his
death was quite shock.
He was a devoted member of the
order of Elks, and his membership
was with the Methodist church.
His aged father, j. H. Gown, and
a sister, Mrs. DR.. Wooding, reside at
Hogansville, and another sister, Mrs.

A Novel Entertainers
A Public COc.r.. Trial In Which
Prominent People Will Par
ticipate

| Among the most successful and
popular entertainments of the times
are the Mock Court Trials given
under the direction of an expert
Col. A. V. Newton, the welIsknoWn
lawyer-lecturer, of Worcester, Mass.
Many cities in various parts of
the country, have been greatly ex-
cited over them, as attested by the
lengthy and favorable reports in the
leading newspapers. and best of all
by the great audiences that have
packed the largest halls and opera
houses to the doors; in many cases
the interest being so great that every
seat has been sold in advance and
hundreds turned away unable
even to obtain standing room.
One of these popular entertain
ments will be given under the au-
spices of the WOman'S Club of FitZ
gerald, in the Court House, on Mon
day evening, April 3rd.
1t will be assured that one of our
most respected and prominent cit
liens has been trifling with the
affections of a young and beautiful
widow of this town and will have
to answer to the Breach of Promise
suit brought against him and there
will be fun without limit.
Indeed. it is safe to predict that
it will be many moons before the
walls of the Court House will again
re-echo with so much laughter as
will be heard on that occasion.
Additional interest will be created
in the trial from the fact that a
large number of our prominent
people will be participants. All the
rules of a regular court of justice
will be observed

AVIATION.

Not very high to be sure, any great distance,
but they flew.
Aviator Fred Ellis got his Curtss biplane together
and tested it out fairly.
The motor not working satisfactorily and

take the chances until the engine is working per-
fectly.
He has splendid new b-plane that will fly any

The flights yesterday only a few hundred feet

flying and plenty of in Fitzgerald this week. and if
essary, next week.

At the Aviation Field.

This afternoon and right On thru
the week Mr.. Berger and his avi-
ators will entertain the public with
such flights as possible under wealth
er conditions at the aviation ground
Winona heights, or West Central
extension.
They have gone to a vast expense
for the entertainment of the public,
which, we regret to note, is exceed
ingly impatient.
We acknowledge the least bit of
Impotence, but when we gee the
ayiators, the mechanic, the new
aeroplane. the extensive and ex-
pensive Enclosure we regard them
as in earnest of Mr.. Berger's good
intentions. No man would in
vest so much money to prank with
the public. None of us can desire
half so much as Mr.. Berger desires
it.
He has employed the local band
and is doing everything he can to
give us entertainment in his square
deal.
Every dollar will be refunded to
those who buy tickets and fail to
see successful aviation. Rain
checks or tickets good for the next
day, or any other day will be given
in the event of bad weather or any
Interference with the program.
Do not try to beat the game, give
Mr.. Berger your support and en-
cOuragement.

About County Fair.

About County Fair.
March 20, 1911.
Col. j. E. Mercer,
City.
Dear Sir
| heartily second the
move for a county fair, for am
sure that from no other source
could so much practical and useful
AGRICULTURAL education and inform
alton than from an exhibition OF
our own products and telling to
one another how it was done. 1t
is the competition and success
of the fellow next to us that i'm
pels us to greater effort. The sue
cess or failure of the one away OH
little concerns us. Practical and
conservative management will give
us real good and interesting fair
at nominal cost
Lets have the place Fitzgerald
and the spot the school reserve in
the northeast corner of the said
FITZGERALD. We can stay in town
and be at the fair too. 1t is close
to the depots-a great convenience
to those coming in On the train
and great many more people Will
90 to the fair if they can walk. A
substantial board fence eight or
ten feet high could be put up
around this tract, or so much OF 1t
as would be needed at small cost
and a 2O-feet shed with the eve
over the fence could be cheaply
constructed for exhibits and ample
room could be obtained for the ex-
| hibits in this way. Lack of display
space is very disadvantages IN a
matter of this kind. | have never
seen a county fair with sufficient
display space. A house large
enough for this feature of county
fair is too expensive. Let's have
plenty of good cheap room. It is
not likely that the city will need
this reserve for several years
When conditions necessitate more
school room, increase the size and
quality of the ones she already has.
Decrease the number and increase
the quality in the matter of build
ings is the most practical and USE
full thing to do in the interest of
education.
Let's fix up one side of Central
Avenue for a horse and automobile
race tract. Autos starting at the
Seaboard depot could be at full
speed by the time the tracks of the
Townsville division was reached
and some 800 feet from the west
end could be the finish point and
brow of crossties and such like
could be put up at the extreme end
of the tract to stop Henry Burk-
hart and Joe Brewer, and the rest
of us could slow down enough to
either turn to the right or left
into Merrimac drive.
Let's have the pemiums for Ben
Hill county horses and Ben Hill
automobiles. We can laugh and
hollow hurrah for the other fellows
and say we are glad to have to
you with us. We've got some good
stuff to make up a show with and
let's do it.
Put me down 1000 feet of lum-
Der for a fair on the reserve.
Yours truly,
D. L. Martin.

SHERIFF PREVENTS
 A JAIL DELIVERY

A timely search of the negro mems de- pertinent of the county jail yesterday pre- vented jail delivery. The search was made by Sheriff McAdory, Clerk Mecalfe and Deputy Sheriff Ed Newman. In cell No. 8, on the third floor of the negro mems department, Sheriff McAdory per ceived that the ceiling did not look ex- actly right He found that the heads of several bolts, bringing the sheet steel of the roof of the cell together, had been sawed off, leaving only the sheet of steel to be pushed up and let the entire crowd escape.
 Sheriff McAdory ordered the negroes in that cell transferred to another cell, anI theI, found a fine steel saw which would cut through steel without the least re- sistance. He has no idea how the saw came into possession of the negroes, un- less 1t was through some visitor to the jail. Visitors. however, are carefully watched by jail attaches while talking with the prisoners.
 The negroes stated that they intended making their way to freedom last night

REVIVAL SERVICE AT
 FOUNTAIN HEIGHTS

The congregation of the Fountain Heights Methodist church heard the Rev. J. O. Hanes, who is conducting revival service there, preach last evening on the saving power of the love of Christ. The music, which is under the direction of c. H. Grain, consisted of the usual choral singing.
 The regular services at 10 o'clock this morning and 7:45 o'clock this evening will be held today with the solo of tonight's meeting to be rendered by Miss Lucy Bickey.
 Taking for his theme a verse from St. John, ''The blood of Jesus Christ, His Son, cleanses us from all sin," Rev. Hanes said in part:
 'Sin is the worst state in the world and the most disastrous of all condi- tons that befaf the lot of man. It is more terrible than poverty and in many cases more miserable than death. It wrecks and ruins the individual, destroys the happiness of the family life; demeans the universe of God and would even de-
