< Despite aplsndia Courage, Thsy Nsvsr \ Nsn A 1attis From 't)s. = \ The battle of Buena Vista was I ono of the decisive 'bhttles Of the Mexican whr. There were about 2b,000 Mexichus to some 5000 Unired States troops ehgaged, and ] the result put the northern part of 2 Mexico At' the mercy of the United l States.
 It may be said that as it was in that battle so it was in every battle of the Mexican War. From the be- ginning to the end the Mcxicans did not win a solitary victory.
 The Mexicans showed d splendid courage. In nearly every instance they greatly outnumbercd their ad- versarics, and in nearly every in- stance, again. they had the advan- tage of position. Still the Ameri- cans invariably beat them.
 At Pa}o Alto 2,O0O Americans routed G,00O Mcxicans, and at Rcsa- ca de la Palma the odds were about the same. At Monterey. Taylor. with 6,o0o men, stormed place /: that was defended by force 1s,Ooo strong. At Buena Vista the odds < were four to one against the Amer i jeans, as they were also at Sacra- I mento. At Sierra Gordo General 1Scott, with 5000 men, found Santa 1 Anna strongly intrenched with 12,- 1000, and yet he walked right over J.him, killing and wounding 1000 of his. men, capturing 5000 and dis lpersing the rest. Finally Scott. |with 12,Oo0 men as against 30,000 |of the enemy, won Churubusco, Chapultepec and the City of Mexico l itself.
 Thus in every instance through out the Mexican war were the invad- CTS victorious and notwithstanding the fact that the advantage in num- bers and in position was invariably with those whose country they were invading.
 This is a decidedly unique fact in the history of warfare. since it would be difficult, if not impossible, to find another conflict between two nations in which there was not, to some extent at least, a division of tho honore of +ha battlahn1d
 The explanation is left for the psychologists and for those who study the deeper traits of men and nations.-Ncw York American.

NO EDUCATION COM

Hardly q day that the local or
telegraph column of papers in and
out of Florida do not tell of death by
drowning of people unable to swim.
If the figures were gathered it would
probably be discovered that hum
dreds had lost their lives in this way
during the present summer and it is
distinct discredit to the intelligence
Of the American people that this
fearful toll is paid every year and
thu. it is increasing rather than de-
creasing.
Nothing worth the having is easier
to Learn than swimming. Any IL

The education of no boy or girl

HOLLINGSWORTH ITEMS

On Friday the 4th aDout eighty
or ninety people of the Hollings-
worth neighborhood gathered togeth-
err to celebrate the day. At an early
hour they began to congregate on
the grounds and just before dinner
was served there was some singing
and some recitations, an l then, what
a dinner: Everything that the heart
of man could wish for. After din
ner various games were INDUCED in,
and at the same time ice cream and
cool drinks were being served. The
older men had game of baseball
with the younger men, the younger
men winning the game, because the
young men had more practice, 1t Is

The great cause of coed roads in
Florida shows no signs of yielding to
the hot weather or other adverse in
huences. Every county in the
State has a bunch of active good
roads enthusiasts in it and with
gratifying frequency this enthusiasm
takes the form of an election for
good roads bonds. Lee county is the
last to take this step and an cleo
ton to provide for an issue of
100000 in such bonds will soon be
held.

BETTER NOW THAN
EVER BEFORE

Men whose vision Is out OF true
perspective or whose livers are out
of order tell us that the world is
growing worse and that crime and
vice and seltishness are sending us
perpendicularly downward to thai
torrid locality Of which we hear so
much and know SO little. And yet
there never was time in all the
long annals of the human race when
men AMI women everywhere respond
ed so promptly and freely to the call
of need and suffering as right now.
Putting out of view the immense
moneyed benefactions by the very
rich for education and other phil
anthropic purposes (although these
should not be left out OF any estl-
mate of the worlds progress to bet
ter things) we have only to con-
slider the matter of individual char
ity and unsrudging personal aid to
the worthy poor to realize how false

County Judge W. Rhodes Shackelford

ter, and Justices Jacob Hackett, Jos
eph Long, H. c. Rice, W. E. Taylor and
Luther Todd, who were starting on
their annual tour of the Blue Grass Re-
gion, carefully inspecting the roads over
which they travel.
Madison county, under the able ad-
ministratlon of Judge Shackelford, has
some OF the finest roads in Kentucky,
and upon his record for building good
roads the judge is making his strongest
bid for reelection. although he has CIV
en- his people an honest and able admin
istration all along the line.
Judge Shackelford and his guests,
who were making the trip in an auto
mobile, had dinner at the Phoenix Hotel
and left later later in the afternoon for
Georgetown and Paris. Judge Il @.
Rice, who was in the party, is Judge
Shackelford's opponent for the demo
cratic nomination for county judge. The
