The trial of Martin Hanks, who was
defended by John P. Stokes and Frank
S. Stone, the latter of Bay Minetta
Ala, consumed nearly the entire time
of the court yesterday. The prosecu-
tion was conducted by Solicitor Scott
NJ. Loftin and C. Moreno Jones.
After the jury had been given the
case about $50 o'clock they returned
after about an hours deliberation and
reported that they had not reached an
them to again retire and consider the
case. They came into court about Z:
o'clock with verdict of not guilty.
The applause on the part of the
friends of the defendant was short
started Judge Beggs put a check to IL
by ordering Chief Deputy Sheriff
Hartsfeld to go among the spectators
and bring the offending parties to the
bar.
Judging from the noise made by
some of the spectators it was evident
that more than two took part in the
demonstration, but the deputy sue
ceeded in only bringing up four OF
them to be dealt with by the court
Judge Beggs pointed out Boatwright
and ordered him to come up for trial
Judge Beggs told the spectators
that the court room was no place for
applause and that the cheering of 4
verdict by the jury in any case would
not be tolerated.
The jury was composed of the fol-
lowing: H. F. BRAZIL, Joel F'rater, Jos
w. Gingles, jeff Hart c. A. Flowers
and F. E. Bayless.

PRISONERS IN
CITY JAIL MAKE
THEIR ESCAPE
FOUR OF THEM WERE FEDERAL
PRIsoNERS-sAWED THROUGH
IRON BAR ON SECOND FLOOR.

Jim Barnett, young white man, and
four white sailors escaped from the
second floor of the city Jail some time
Monday night, the discovery that the
men had left the Jail being made about
8 o'clock Tuesday morning by Desk
Sergeant Henry j. Coburger.
The escape of the prisoners was ef-
fected by saving one of the bars Of a
window on the second floor. The men
were not locked up in cells. but were
allowed the free use of the bull ring,
from which the work Of saving the
bar on the window could be easily ac-
complished.
Barnett was serving a fine of S101
on the charge Of carrying a pistol con-
cealed and the sailors were placed in
the Jail by authority of the United
States court at the request of their
consuls, the latter acting on instruc-
tions from captains of vessels on
which the sailors were employed.
None of the prisoners have been re-
captured, but the police are endeavor-
ing to apprehend them.
When the bar was cut the prisoners
had little difficulty in reaching the
ground, as the distance from the wiE-
dow at which the bar was cut to one
directly beneath it is very short. The
men used blanket in lowering them
selves to the window on the first floor,
from which they dropped to the
ground. After reaching the ground in
the rear Of the jail the men easily left
the place by jumping fence.
At the special meeting of the board
of public safety at O'Clock. yesterday
evening, which was called to investi-
gate the matter, it was shown that
Chief Sanders had some time ago is
sued orders to lock up all prisoners at
night. but on this occasion the prison
ers were not locked in the cells. The
board ordered the chief TO reprimand
Desk Sergeant Carlson and Turnkey
Commyns for failing to lock the pris-
oners in cells. Sergeant Carlson and
Turnkey Commyns were on duty from
o'clock Monday afternoon until mid
night of the same day.
According to the evidence before the
board, it is thought that the saw which
was used to cut the bar was carried
into the Jail in loaf of bread, which
was given to one of the sailors who
escaped, by a white woman who has

But he that owns the gold,

His spending has no end.
Hail to the morning sky,
Which bright clouds measure high;
Hail to you, birds whose throats
Would number leaves by notes;
Hail to you, shady bowers,
And you. green fields of flowers.

reau Of education to the effect that in
the country as a whole less than half
of the children finish more than the
first six grades: only about one In four

in 100 go to college. The right of
the state to tax the property of the
state to educate the children Of the

the states have no laws regulating the
construction of public school houses,
the report declares. We have only
three types of institutions where at
tendance is compulscry-jails. asylums
and school houses. Few of us have TO
stay long or frequently IL jails or
asylums, but all of us spend many
years in school houses. Nevertheless.
Ohio alone has complete regulation IF
school house construction to insure
the safety and sanitation of these
buildings.
A somewhat better situation is found
with respect to medical inspection of
schools. which is provided for by the
laws Of twenty states. That such
laws are needed in the remaining
states is shown by a mass Of expert
ence which demonstrates the efficient
medical inspection betters health con-

guards them from disease and rem

According to this report the system
of providing free text books for school
children is almost a century old in
America, having been inaugurated by
Philadelphia 90 years ago. At the
present time II states have free text
books throughout their schools, 15 OF
them in certain districts and in the
remaining q states the system does
not exist School books bought by the
community cost the community 20 pei

feature Of the passage Of the Massa-
