An unfortunate accident oc-
Cured about half way between
this place and Lesterville on the
Fourth, which resulted in the
death of Jos. Blacinek, a young
man about 26 years of age. He,
with several companions, was on
his way to Scotland to spend the
holiday.
The train was crowded and lie
was riding on the lower step of the
back coach. No one saw the ac-
cident but in some way be was
struck by a cattle guard at the
side of the track and was thrown
from the train. 1t was struck with
such force that the cattle guard
was broken into kindling wood,
and the young man was hurled
about fifty feet. The train was
stopped and he was picked up and
brought to Scotland where he was
taken to the Office of DR.. Koobs,
the local railroad physician.
Strange to say no bones were
broken and there were no serions
bruises on his body. but the brain
a injured by the conclusion
He remained in a delerious condi.
ton until Saturday when DR..
Californian Of Sioux City and DR..
Ball of Mitchell, two railroad ply.
sicians, arrived for consultation.
1t was decided that the only hope
WAS an operation to relieve the
pressure on the brain. He was
taken to the hospital at Mitchell
Saturday evening, accompanied
by the three physicians, and an
operation performed. 1t was
found that the brain had been bad
ly shattered, and as soon as the
skull was penetrated the fluid
spurted out in large quantities. He
withstood the operation but died
Sunday night, without regainlng
CONSCIOUSNESS. MIR. Biacinek was
born in Bohemia and had been in
this country about four years. He
worked two years for Kolda Bros,
implement dealers at Lesteryille,
and this seas on was working on a
farm three miles from that place
for Andrew Schemp. He had no
relatives in this country. One
brother formerly lived in Chicago,
but ne returned to the old country
last winter. AT the request Of the
kolda brothers, Dir. Koobs went to
Mitchell Monday and had the
body shipped to Lesterville for
burial.

by Mr.. Howell was to the effect that
the county should be divided accord
ing to the base line running east and
west on the Tallahassee Meridian
through the county, by a bill he would
Introduce without a referendum clause
in the coming legislation. Mr.. Buchan-
an by his preamble set forth county
division with a referendum clause in
a bill he might offer in the lower
house at Tallahassee if elected.
The election of Mr.. Howell thus far
settles the question of division without
referendum, but it remains to be seen
whether or not the electors Of the
state will adopt the initiative and
referendum amending the constitu
ton at the general election next No

the bill without referendum or not.
The magic growth of the bay county
with its thriving towns, the unpar-
alleled prosperity for the past few
years has wrought a mighty change.
Railroads have penetrated the timber
lands, new saw mills have been built
and an influx of population from al
most every state in the Union whereby
new and thriving towns are built on
North, West and East Bays, over
looking the Gulf of Mexico. This
magic uprising calls for the creation
of a new county to be called St. An

ington has arisen from its primitive

the police and fire departments receive
regular instruction with heavy dumb
bells, jumping, running and other tests
required. Is it not a happy omen for
the future that the gymnasiums in
our recreation centers are training the
physical powers of the men who will
patrol our streets at night, guard our
property, or in times of peril will save
human lives from the dangers of fire?
For those who do not wish the ac-
tiVity required in the gymnasium, a
game and library room is provided.
The most popular magazines are kept
on file and a small library of selected
books is always at hand. The habit
of reading is therefore encouraged and
provement in the literary taste of the
readers"
The Teachers Personality.
The need of a personality in all the
remedial work undertaken is discussed
by DR.. stitt, and he gives his ideas
Of the successful teacher in these
words:
THE great problem of American ed
ucation," said Professor Vincent, lis
the problem of making American citi-
zens." We realize the truth of this
observation and special interest has
therefore been taken in the formation
of clubs and societies among those
who attend the centers. The gang
spirit among those who are inclined to
be laWless is re-created into a club
spirit. Young men who are soon to
have the right to vote should be
taught in clubs the advantages of self
government, and by the knowledge of
parliamentary law which they soon at
tain in the practical conduct Of a
meeting, they come to realize the ad-
vantages of our republican form of
government, the sacred rights of
chosen officials and a cheerful obedi-
ence to the expressed will Of the ma
jority. Stuffed ballot boxes, illegal
voting and false registration in our
political affairs will soon be done away
with when our future citizens learn
in their club meetings their full rights

election of officers. The teller in charge
of the counting of the ballots had
been careless in collecting the votes
and two ballots had been cast in ex-
cess OF the number OF members

tected, new election ordered and er-
forts made to see that the offense was
not repeated. Was not such an incl

great advantage in preparing them for
civic righteousness and just appre-
citation Of the sacTedness Of the ballot!
In all the plans which have been
above outlined, success is only possible

vantages for good. Our immortal Dec
laration of independence has stated in
no uncertain terms that the inaIien-
able rights of all Of our citizens are
not only life and liberty" but also
the pursuit of happiness Thomas
Jefferson in ringing tones declared
that our government to be successful
must so organize its powers that the

shall be effected. Recreation, there
fort, becomes not only a national need,
but also state right and a municipal
duty. Our city fathers as they have
come to be called, must live up to
their name, and by legislation and eff

care for the health and happiness of

work their enthusiastic devotion. We
realize that personality is a more i'm
portant asset to those engaged in this
work than mere scholarship. The fol-
lowing acrostic indicates the qualities
necessary for those who will have sue

The Teachers should be:
Tireless in energy!
Earnest in endeaVor!
Attractive in personality!
Conscientious in service!
Honest in their dealings!
Educated in play.
Resourceful in initiative!
Serving with high standard"
The need of attention to the recrea-
tional needs of the people is being
recognized in Pensa cola, and while the
evils are not as notably present here
as in the larger cities, they are rapidly
growing, and the time is speedily COM
ing when the Fairgrounds Association
and the educational interests Of the
city must get together on a complete,
thoroughly systematized plan to use
all the available facilities, of park and
school building, in order to provide
for the needs of our people.
