meeting to order yesterday afternoon
shortly after } o'clock, he declared
that the occasion was the most i'm
rOrtant-with one eXception-that the

known. That exception, he said, was
when Cen. Sam Johnson came to head
the guard itself. -. -
Capt. Carpenter, who commands

him, telling them in general of the

RESCUED GIRL FROM FLAMES.
Teacher and Principal Of School Are
Badly Burned.
(Atlanta Constitution, 4th. }

(Atlanta Constitution, 4th.)
After being wrapped in flames that
burned away all Of her clothing, Miss
Helen Hill, pupil of the first grade
of the Girls High School, was yester-
day morning saved from terrible
death by the heroic work of her
teacher and the principal Of the
school, who were both painfully in
jured.
The accident occurred at the Girls
High School, Washington street,
about 10 o'clock and was caused by
the girls dress becoming ignited
from an open gas stove.
The building, which is poorly
heated, has been furnished with a
number of gas stoves, some Of which
have no screens. Miss Hill had just
entered the classroom after a short
recess, and stood before the stove to
warm. Her skirt was waited into
the open stove and came in contact
with the flames.
IcQCllcTS save I1cr lLlle.
Miss Elizabeth K. Caldwell, her
teacher, heard the cries Of Miss Hill s
classmates, and ran to her assist
ance. At the salhe time Miss Jennie
Muse, principal Of the school, ran
into the room, and she and Miss
Caldwell threw Miss Hill on the
mi ,l1 L.,
that were handed them by the other
pupils.
Miss Hill did not move or utter a
cry, although she was enveloped in
flames. Had she tried to run, Miss
Muse states, she would in all proba-
bility have been burned to death.
1t was at first believed that the girl
was badly burned, and doctor was
summoned. He made careful eX-
amination and announced that, mirac.
ulous rs it might seem, there were
no serious burns on the girls body
Under his advice Miss Hill was sen,
to her home.
Mrs. G. l.. White, mother Of the
| girl, after hearing the story Of hel
daughters remarkable rescue, con.
scented for her to return to school
| Miss Hill dressed for the second time
| that day and VS. soon back at school
| carrying with her TIA cloaks she haG
borrowed to wear home.
Both Miss Caldwell and Miss Muse
had to have their hands dressed by &
physician, as they were painfully
burned, Miss Caldwell suffering tho
most. The scars on Miss Caldwell's
hands, the physician thinks, will las
through life.

THE RACE OF LIFE.
A Talk With the Boys.
Progressive Farmer.)


Gone of the greatest men among the
rural leaders in America is EN-
Governor Hoard, now in his 8Oth
year. He says in his note enclos-
ing the following excellent bit of
good counsel for our Southern
boys: Although confined to my
house most of the time, could
not resist your appeal to say some
thing to the Southern boys.")
Every boy should set off a portion
of each day to reading of the best
authors on farm topics. He should
take in all he can of the science Of
farming. That means study of the
laws that govern soil life, plant life,
and animal life. Then he should
study business principles, learn how
business Is done. To be ignorant on
these questions means failure.
Then he should cultivate his power
Of observation. The boy on the
farm is surrounded with about all of
the mysteries of nature. To go along
without noting the abundant facts
about him is to show that he pos
sesses dull, unobservant mind.
Then he must be u worker dill
gent in business" 1t is the workers
who win in all callings and profess
sions, provided they work intelli-
gently. He must be thrifty, saving of
his time, money and materials. The
man who wastes either time, money
or materials is bound to be q failure
All over this broad country have the
farmers of the past sinned against
both God and men by a wicked waste
if their soil fertility.
These are great questions, for
tell you, boys, it is great thing to
become successful farmer. Indus.
try and study will unlock many a
! closed door to us. Do not consider il
to be a light thing, common thing
