SHOTTED CANNON FOR A FLY

THE COURT has been occupied this
week, and hundreds of dollars of the tax
payers money have been spent, in hear
ing number of trivial cases that ought
never to reach a hearing in Court at all.
1t is at times farcical, at other times
disgusting, and AT ALL TIMES exasper-
ating to witness the trivial ties to which
the Court must give a solemn hearing
and for which the county must pay a
heavy toll.
We are not going to suggest any rem
edy for this state of things, though rea-
sonable remedies would not be hard to
suggest. And the remedy will, we think,
be found, when the people have become
thoroughly aroused to the wastefulness
and incongruity of the present system

PENSIONS FOR EX-PRESIDENTS.
Carnegie Corporation Fund $125,.
10000 for Pensions and Various
Benevolent Purposes.

Future ex-presidents of the Unit
ed States are to be pensioned in the
sum of $4,000 each annually by
action of the Carnegie Corporation
of New York. The grant is provided
for with the idea of enabling former
executives of the nation to devote
their unique knowledge, gained in
public affairs, to the public good,
free from pecuniary care. A similar
amount is to be paid widows of ex-
presidents as long as they remain
unmarried.
The pensions are to be promptly
Offered to the ex-presidents or their
widows, so that no application will
be required from them. Payment is
TO be continued so long as the re-
t.ipient remain unprovided for by
the government"
The announcement followed the
second annual meeting of the cor
poration held at the residence Of
Andrew Carnegie here and attended
by the corporations eight trustees.
Five of these eight trustees are
the heads Of the five institutions

fund may be expended upon the
most profitable work, whether that
be the promotion of new ideas or the
development of those of the day.
In the meeting the trustees took
under consideration number OF
matters directly in this keeping and
concerning the details of which no
announcement was made, but the
principal item of business passed
upon was the pension plan for ex-
presidents of the United States and
their widows. The official an.
nouncement covering the matter
follows:
Provision has been made through
this corporation for pension for
each future ex-president and his
widow unmarried, of $4,000 per
year as long as these remain unpro-
vided for by the nation, that they
may be able to spend their unique
knowledge gained of public affairs
to the public good, free from pecun-
larry cares. These pensions will be
promptly offered to the ex-presidents
or their widows, so that no applica-
ton will be required from them.
No authorized reference was made
to the matter of pensions other than
is contained in the foregoing an
Tnupcement.

GAINESVILLE Depot Burgiarized Satur'
(lay. w

The depot was burglarized early
last Saturday morning while the
assistant agent was out weighing
coal cars. Entrance was effected in
to the agents Office by prying up
the ticket window. So far as can be
ascertained four tickets and gal
Ion of booze were taken.
Two men were in the waiting
room, when the assistant agent went
out to weigh the coal cars, whom he
supposed we're waiting to take the
train out. w. C. Harrel, agent, had
not yet arrived. Two tickets for
Van Vert and two tickets for Shen-
andoah were taken. The conductor
was suspicious about the tickets and
wired agent Harrel about the matter.
He Immediately wired Shenandoah
to be on the lookout but the thieves
were not apprehended. The two Van
Vert tickets were not used.
The matter has been referred to
the detective department of the 20"
and the thieves will doubtless be ap-
pretended soon. A fairly good de-
