Wireless telegraphy has had a new demon

had failed, to notify the shore author! les of
danger. In a like manner Hostetter's Stom

when all other medicines fail. Its superiority
Is quickly felt in the renewal of strength. It

Brief Summary of Interesting
Happenings Culled at Random.
Little Damage To Fruit.
Few reports have been received at
the agricultural department in the last
few days regarding the effect of the
cold weather on the fruit crop of the
state, but it is not believed that any
considerable damage has been done.
While the cold in some localities was
severe, it is not thought that the crop
was far enough advanced to materially
injure the early buds.
...
Faying Out School Fund.
Over $200,000, one-fifth of the
school fund of the state, is being paid
out by State School Commissioner
Glonn.
This is the first payment of the
year and the checks are being sent to
the chairmen of the county school
commissioners in every county where
the statement of expenses for the year
thus far have been rendered.
The fund is apportioned according
to the school population of the differ
ent counties.
The amounts to be sent to the presi
dents of the boards of education of
the several counties of the state vary,
some of the smallest and least popu
lated counties securing a very small
sum, but sufficient to maintain schools
for the number of children in the
county.
The teachers, regardless of location,
are paid the same, but are in grades,
regulated by the system of the entire
state school machinery.
The statute relative to the payment
ui school teachers provides that they
shall be paid monthly, but it has been
the custom of the county commission
ers not send in their statements as of
ten as that, and while some of them
receive money from the department
every month, the greater number wait
a longer time, and about five payments
are made each yea.’-.
The appropriation for the schools
this year is about $1,003,000, leaving
SBOO,OOO to be disbursed during the
remaining months of the year.

Atlanta Park Bill.
A Washington dispatch says: The
Atlanta national park bill was placed
on the calendar of the national house
' of representatives Saturday, and it
■ will come up for debate and a vote in
the house in a few days.
Temporary Receiver Appointed,
D. Robinson as trustee for $75,000
of the bonds of the Marietta paper
mill, through hi, attorneys, filed a bill
in the Federal court in Atlanta for the
appointment of a receiver. Judge
William T. Newman issued an order
calliug on the defendant to show cause
before him in this city, March 24, why
the petition should not be granted. In
the meantime the judge named Mr.
Moultrie M. Sessions as temporary re
ceiver. Mr. Sessions has been em-
■ powered by the court to borrow SIO,OOO
! to be used in paying off the debts of
the concern.
The litigation is said to be a friend
; ly affair and to have for its purpose
the reorganization of the company.
The Marietta paper mill is one of
the largest in the south and has a
large output. It is said to be one of
the few large mills in this country
that are not controlled by the paper
trust, and for that reason the outcome
of the present litigation will be await
ed with much interest.

A Sensational Sult.
A suit brought by the city of Atlanta
agaiust the Anniston Pipe and Foun
dry company and the Howard-Harri
son Iron company for $50,000 has been
filed in the United States court at Bir
mingham. The city alleges that a trust
has been formed among the pipe men
for the purpose of advancing the price
of piping.
It is also alleged that the city has
. been the victim of the conspiracy in
regard to the bills on piping. The low
est bidder has always been, it appears,
the Anniston company, which the city
appears to believe was arranged for.

Bonds Knocked Out.
Jones county held an election last
Saturday for bonds to build a new
courthouse and jail. The election
went against bonds by not getting the
required number of votes. There will
be another election on April 4th to de
cide whether the courthouse shall be
removed to Gray’s or remain at Clin
ton.
Fuller Promises to Talk.
Allen Fuller, the negro who was
convicted of the murder of Mrs. Eu
genia Hamilton Pottle and who is now
under sentence of death in the Macon
jail for the crime, was seen by a cor
lespondent a few days ago and said
that he would tell something very soon
about the crime which would startle
the people. It will be remembered
that while the trial was on Fuller in
timated very strongly that he was paid
money to put Mrs. Pottle out of the
way. His lawyers did not allow him
to bring out that point, however, and
since then he has been silent. He in
timated as much by saying that he and
i old man Redd were not the only ones
who knew abont the killing. He told
the correspondent that he would bo
I ready to tell all in the next few days.
New Gold Mining Enterprise.
The Nacoochee Mining and Manu
facturing Company, a big new gold
mining enterprise with headquarters
and main offices in Atlanta, is the
latest addition to the list of Georgia’s
resource developers.
With a capitalization of $5,000,000
I in view, the promoters of the enter
prise have applied for a charter for the
gold mine to White county superior
i court, and the operation of the mine
will begin as soon as the charter is
granted. It will be operated on a
more extensive scale, it is said, than
any gold mine in the south.
The property is in White county, in
the third, fourth, fifth and sixth dis
tricts. The acreage is more than 20,-
000 acres, and it is claimed by the
owners that the richest veins of gold
ore east of the Rocky mountains are
located on the property. There are
several large gold mines in the imme
diate vicinity of the property, all of
-which are paying handsomely, but the
promoters of the Nacooehee mines are
confident their property has an advan
tage over all in the close proximity of
a bountiful water supply, a large acre
age and a shorter distance to railroad
facilities. It is but fifteen miles to
Clarkesville from the point on the
property where the main part of the
machinery and the mining apparatus
will be erected.
...
Sheriff Ronat. Bailiff-.
Sheriff John W. Nelms, of Fulton
has had published a signed statement
regarding the release of “Pegleg” Wil
liams from the Tower on bond, in
which he roasts Bailiff Gibson, of
Athens, for the statement that that
officer has made to the effect that the
status of affairs in Atlanta was misrep
resented to him by Jailer N. A. Chas
tain.
Dr. Nelms does not mince words,
but asserts that if Bailiff Gibson made
the statement attributed to him, he
has grossly misrepresented the case.
The sheriff even uses stronger lan
guage. He alludes to Bailiff Gibson
as the “lord high bailiff,” and also as
the “pretended deputy sheriff.”
He charges that the officer from
Clarke county was not attending
strictly to his duties, but was “tak
ing in the city and seeing the sights,”
when he should have sought to present
the warrant for Williams to Sheriff
Nelms or his deputies.
Dr. Nelms says that no warrant was
tendered him, and, as Williams offered
bond and the casjpLvas. bailable, he ac
cepted the securjity and released the
prisoner.

No New Trial For Lucas.
At Decatur, Saturday, Judge J. S.
Candler heard a motion for a new trial
in the ease of Will Lucas, the negro
who killed Robert F. Davis, on the
night of May 12, last year. The judge
overruled the motion, but the attor
neys for Lucas will carry the appeal
to the supreme court. Lucas has been
tried twice for the murder of Mr.
Davis, and at the last hearing was
sentenced by Judge Candler to life
imprisonment.

Big Electric Power Plant. ,
The announcement that a big elec
tric power plant is to be established
at Talassee shoals means a great deal
for Athens and vicinity. The middle
Oconee river at that place will be
made to yield 1,009 horse power, and
that power will be rented to manufac
turers in Athens. The furnishing of
cheap electric power is expected to be
an inducement to prospective inves
tors.

Textile Machinery Plant Assured.
The plan to locate in Atlanta the
plant of the Southern Textile Machin
ery Company is meeting with the
greatest success and enthusiasm among
the business men of Atlanta. It is
only a question of a day or so before
the required subscription of SIOO,OOO
will be completed in the city.
* * .
Atlantal interstate Fair.
Work on the subscription list of the
southern interstate fair for Atlanta is
proceeding with a rush, and soon the
necessary amount of $15,000 which will
be used as a guarantee fund, will be
in hand.
The merchants an d business men of
the city are alive to the importance of
making the first of Atlanta’s interstate
fairs a glittering success, and have en
tered into the movement with com
mendable enthusiasm. The state fair
last fall was in the nature of aa ex
periment, but that experiment proved
so successful that every merchant in
Atlanta appreciates fully the manifold
benefits he will derive from future
successes.

Gainesville Is Lucky.
A deal was closed at Gainesville the
past week by which the Pacolet Manu
facturing Company, of Pacolet, 8. C.,
secured control of 85 acres of land on
which is located the famous New Hol
land Springs property, on which they
may erect a $1,000,000 cotton mill.
The matter has been worked very
quietly and with great care, and by
the deal Gainesville secures one of
the biggest cotton mills in the south.
Audacity of a Burylar.
While a burglar was visiting the flat
of Mrs. H. L. O’Brien he stepped on
the cat’s tail and the animal’s cries
roused the household and frightened
him away.
In his haste to leave the burglar lost
his hat in the Inside hall. Fearing to
go back and get it himself, he rang for
the janitor, William Tibbs. ‘‘l have
rheumatism,” he said to Tibbs. “Here’s
a quarter. Please go up to the third
floor and get my hat. I’ve been calling
here and I forgot it. It lies beside the
door of flat H.”
The janitor did not hesitate, but wcut
off laughing and got the hat.—Chicago
Record.

Agriculture in Puerto Rico.
At present little in the way of plant
products is exported from Puerto Rico
outside of coffee, sugar and tobacco.
All the other crops are considered
worthy of the serious attention of the
planters, their cultivation being gener

most ignorant of the population.
There has been little attempt at the
