CIRCUIT COURT
Criminal Matters Dec upyir
Courts Time This Week !,

The term of the circuit court is
clearing up the dockets pretty
well. Last week was devoted to
civil matters, and this week has
been devoted to criminal eases: Z
The grand jury, which was com
posed of substantial and Deepen
dable men, worked diligently and
completed their work before the
end of last week, making their
presentment Friday.
Among cases in which special
interest is felt here was that of
d. j. Hobbs VS. Atlantic Coast
Line Railway, assumpsit. Wal
lace Chadman represented the
plaintiff and Sparkman and Car
ter appeared for the defendant.
Mr. Hobbs sued for Damages ac-
count injuries on person caused by
collision of train with his auto

The jury returned a ver-
dict of 1900 in favor of Hobbs.
Three days of this week have
been taken up with the trial of
Jesse Alderman for the killing Of
Ed Howard, negro, blind Tiger
spotter, near here last year. Two
others, Locklier and Lowe, were
with Alderman in the
Alderman, however, was
brought to trial first. Lowe has
not yet been taken into custody.
A verdict of murder in the first
degree was returned yesterday.
Sentence has not yet been passed,
Other cases that are yet to be

of the court the rest of this week
and will likely carry over into
next week. Judge Whitney hop

observed at the school with an ap.

A good many people turned out
Sunday morning both at Wood

Mon church to services, the day
being a perfect one in every way.

There seemed to be rather a
queer looking affair on the Ca

the shape of a boat. The queer
part being the absence of ladies
in. what the writer took to be a
very merry party of young men,
mostly of Woodrow. Hardly a
man was to be seen around here
Sunday evening and the report
leaked out early in the afternoon
that it was due to the fact that a
10y ride in honor of young Mr..
Grow, who leaves tomorrow for
his old home in Iowa, was being
pulled off by his many friends.
Not a girl in sight as this merry
bunch simply tore up the Caloosa-

they have all decided to follow
Mrs. Grow and their brother, who
left several weeks ago, to Iowa,
but we are glad to report that the
young men, Mr.. Roy and Lewis
Crow will return to Woodrow this
fall to put in extensive trucking
on their property here and the

r. G. Addison's Home-Brought
Under Control by Hard
Fighting

R. C. Addison s home, corner
Cross street and Virginia avenue,
caught fire Friday morning, and
it was only by hard fighting that
it was saved from total destruct-
ion. AS it was, Mr.. Addison has
sustained a heavy loss, as the
house will have to be largely re-
built, but the property was insur-
ed and this will cover a large part
of the loss.
The alarm brought out large
crowd of people and most of the
household goods were removed
before being damaged.
it was a good piece of fire
fighting despite the fact that there
was lack of organization. Some
of the men did some fine work
and Manager Skies of the Punta
Gorda Ice Co., kept a pressure on
the water mains from the factory
pumps.
The value of the water works
was fully demonstrated, for if
this fire had occurred before they
were put in this house and several
others in the vicinity would most
probably have been destroyed.
When the Ice Company installs
the big fire pump that has been
ordered for the purpose, Punta
Gorda will be well provided for
in this particular, and future
fires can be the more easily COPIED
with.
