(By L. NJ. Thurston, County Super
intendent)
At present there are sixty-four
school districts and twelve separate
schools in Carter county, employing
about one hundred and eighty teach
ers. There are very few OF these
districts but that employ more than
one teacher, at salaries ranging from
$50 to 1925 per month. Probably
three-fourths of these have had eight
mcnths or more of school during the
school year just closed. 1t will be
noticed from the prices paid and the
length of the school terms that Car
ter county should have an excellent
body of teachers. There isn't n
stronger or more intelligent set of
teachers in any county than has Car
ter county. The patrons of these
schools show their appreciation of
the teachers by a spirit of co opera
tion and sympathy not ordinarily
found in rural communities. Every
proposition that has been suggested
from the county superintendent Of
flee to the teachers of the county for
the general advancement Of the in
terests of the schools has been met
with hearty response from the pro-
gressive teachers and from the COM

A Little Story From Life.

When l entered the store at 6 p.
m. OIL my way home, the proprietor
was sound asleep.
81 stopped to get the lamp which
you promised to have ready for me"
I began very loudly.
ooh, yes" he replied, arising from
his seat behind a desk covered with
a three months layer of dust and
a hodge-podge of circulars and papers.
81 cram sorry, but I couldn't find
a burner to fit the size lamp you
wanted"
WELL" l said, somewhat discour-
aged, that leaves me in a nice fix
for tonight. No light, the stores up
town all closed and Jones across the
street only carries burners and chin
neys."
Opening his cash drawer he picked
up a nickel and handing it to a little
boy who had sauntered in, said:
Run over to Jones' and ask him
to let me have a No. 2 burner. Hurry
up now"
81 am glad to e that you recog
nize the Importance Of not disappoint
ing your customers" l ventured al
hope returned.
"Uh-huml" he grunted.
A few minutes later the phone RAM
and I listened to this:

Wait a minute"
Then he turned to me and said:

up the receiver with a bang.

ANIMALS CAUGHT BY FIRE
Forest Flames on Glenn Ranch in
California Overlook Thousands Of
Them in Flight

Los Angeles, Cal-Thousands of
dead rabbits, with here and there
deer caught by the whirl of fame, and
trees full Of roasted apples, on the
Glenn ranch. were among the toll Of
the big forest fire that swept from
Cajon to Lytel Creek, according to re-
ports brought here by Supervisor R.
H. Charlton, after almost week spent
In the big woods fighting the fire.
The woods are as dry as finder, and
the flames made rapid Roadway in
spite Of the efforts of nearly two hun
dred experienced irefghters, who
were almost worn out by their efforts.
The blaze was confined for the most
part to leaves, needles and small
brush. When it was confined to a GER
tain area by the men, the inside of the
fire line was filed with wild game try
ing to get away. The sweep of the fire
was so quick that in hundreds of in
stances they could not get out of the
zone Of danger.
The rabbits ran in droves to the
center away from the fringe of the
flames, only to be burned up when the
fire ate its way into their hiding
places. Several deer, one Of them a
big six-prong buck, ran right into the
hottest blaze.

NEAR PAUPER'S LOT
Body of Dr.. James Phillips
Claimed by Daughter.
soldier-Physician and Nephew of For
mer Lord Mayor of London Barely
Escapes Burial in Pot
ters Field.
2i.':'laH3,.a;'ll.;;a-..:sss4-..s-42%sa

New York--Almost at the last min
ute the body Of DR. James Phillips,
soldier and physician, nephew of an
erstwhile lord mayor of London, and
once wealthy, was rescued from pau
per's grave. He died in the city hog
pital at BlackwelTs island
For days the body had been III the
morgue without inquiry by any one,
and arrangements had been made for
its burial by charitable society. The
word that saved the body from the
potter's field was sent by daughter,
who gave instructions to have it for
warded to Bridgeport, Conn. She had
not heard from him before in 33 years.
Doctor Phillips was born in London,
and was nephew of Sir Fordeil Phil
lips, once lord mayor of his native
city, and cousin of Sir Edward Law
son. When he was in his twenties
the Crimean war began, and he was
among those who went to the front as
a surgeon When the Civil war start
ed, after his arrival here, he placed
his experience at the service of this
country, and once met President Lin
coin.
After the war ended Doctor Phillips
was stationed for a time with naval
vessels at Norfolk, Va, and later he
was transferred to Washington, D. c..
In Washington he was married. His
wife was the daughter Of General Wal
bridge, but the marriage was followed
by divorce. Subsequently Mrs. Phil
lips remarked. This time her husband
was George B. Corkhill, the district
attorney who obtained the convic-
ton CT Guiteau, the assassin of Presi-
dent Garfield.
After the separation from his wife
Doctor Phillips got out of touch with
his children, though, according to his
friends, he made attempts to commu-
nicate with them again in recent
years. Doctor Phillips was eighty
three years old.

Gus copperhead, at McCalIs Ferry,
Paul A. Reichie, a State college stu

saved his life.
Reichte sat on board, under which
the snake lay hiding, and it crawled
out and struck him on the left hand.
Quickly slicing open the wound, he
sucked out as much of the poison as
possible, then applied a turniquet to
stop circulation of the blood. Search
revealed the snake which had bitten
him, and another, both of which were
killed,
By the time Reichie reached ply

his arm was badly swollen, but now
he is out of danger.
