Under a recent interpretation of the convict hill, answering cer tain questions propounded by the Prison Commission, Attorney General Hart holds that where a county fails to work her misde meanor convicts that said county will net receive any hire for same. Can Henry county afford to give away her pro rata part of the fel ony convicts and also her misde meanors? We think not. The present grand jury is com-1 posed largely of gentlemen resid ing in the country, whom we feel sure see the importance and ne cessity of better roads than we n>w have. This being the case, why not recommend to the Ordi-1 nary that he notify the Prison Commission of Henry’s intention to work her convicts on the pub lic roads? This notice must bo given by February 10, 1909. D, D. ELLIOTT LOSES HOME BY FIRF. The residence of Mr. D. D. Elli ott on Key’s Ferry street was burned early Sunday morning, the tire being discovered by Murk Hvrper, colored, just before five o’clock, in the kitchen. By the time the alarm was- giv en and the people got to the resi dence the whole house was aflame, aml it was only by heroic efforts of the bucket brigade that Mrs. Manley’s and Mrs. Cleve land's home were saved. The origin of the fire is not known, the family having all gone from home but the oldest son who was sleeping in one of the front rooms, who barely escaped from the burning house. Only a very few of the household effects wore saved. The house was a new one, being completed about two years, and worth fully $4,000.00. Mr. Elliott bad 8*2.000.00 insur ance on lions • and 8500.00 on fur niture, etc. First Lyceum Attraction Comes Oct. 14.
