mule loose., and went back to where the
buggy was. He found Ins mother
insensible. Some neighbors passing
conveyed Mrs. Stewart home, where

Our neighboring town. Rulgewar,
is on quite a lively boom. At least a
half dozen now buildings are in process
of erection, and everybody seems
to l>e on the move.
The town and vicinity hare recently
lost by death two old landmarks, in
the persons of Mrs. James B. Coleman
and Mr. 11.1J. Kosborough. Each of
them at the time of their der?th boing

lose any one by- death, but especially
so when two such characters as these
are taken from our midst.
Mrs. Coleman was the widow of J. B.
Coleman, and they had lived in Ridgewav
nearly all their lives. She was a
consistent member of the Baptist
Church and was highly esteemed by
all who knew her. She leaves children
and grand children who will ever
cherish her memory. At one time the
Coleman estate owned about one-half
the property of the town.
Mr. llosborougli was also greatlybeloved
by all who knew him. lie
was a good citizen and neighbor and
kind friend. 3Ie was for many years
a ruling elder in the Presbyterian
Church. Ye leaves a widow, children
and grandchildren and a host of friends
to mourn his death.

the above mentioned, has been on a"

his county in the Florida Senate

SUGGESTIOyS AHOW 21:1 XL JUSTICES.
Mews Editors: It has often occurred
to the writer (inring his experience
of several years as a trial justice
in this county that his usefulness could
be frequently greater and his embarrassment
less if he enjoyed means of
information outside of technical lawbooks
wliinli nnf> ignorant of the ele
meats of law could hardly use to
pro tit at all.
lie became convinced that it would
be of great advantage if the different
magistrates should meet as a body the
solicitor of tU<? district at lea?t twice a
year, and, pretty much as a grand
jury hears a charge from th? judge
upon the duties it discharges, have him
to bring before them ciearly and in a
manner devoid of legal technicalities
the functions of their office.
Besides, at this opportunity, any
point arising in one's course of duty
needing light could obtain the solicitor's
consideration and advice, thus
giving all the benefit of the experiences
of the several.
These meetings might produce a
spirit of interest in a zeilous performance
which would develope a better
administration of the laws. The intornnnrsp
marlfi lieeossarv in this man
ner would probably in time lead t?
practical suggestions as to improvements
111 little matters affecting the
public that may benefit the people
whom they serve.
The opinion formally cxpreSp^^f^V^
such a body would unfe^tcdly have
great weight.
The&iyft" other considerations that
[_caiv ) eadilv occur induced the writer
co broach the subject to Mr. McDonald
a year a^o, wl.o has given it his hearty
and full approval, and has cheerfully

The present being favorable for the
beginning-, Mr. McDonald has arranged
to meet the tYial justices in a body in
the Court House at 11 a. in. on Saturday,
31st itist., being shortly before the
spriug term of Court, and it is hoped
the attendance will be full, each one
prepared with written questions upon
matters he desires light, in addstion

a good "Xmas barbecue dinner," as
abo\ier^ted^Xatux^. seemed to smile
"on their efforts, the day dawinitlg^bright
and beautiful, while it was cool
enough to be pleasant and enjoyable.
All present seemed to realize the old
adage?
"At Xmas play and make good clioer
ForXmas comes but once a year."
About two hundred and fifty white
people were present, including men,
women and childdren; and also a considerable
number of the "brother in
black/' I think all present were highly
pleased with the dinner that was spread.
The barbecued meat and hash were
good and abundant, and there was
also a plentiful supply of the delicacies
that arc necessary to make a complete
"layout." And then, there was
hot coffee, and syllabul as extras, and
I would indeed be recreant to my
trust if 1 should fail to mention this
fact after having indulged so freely.
After the whites had partaken of the
feast to their satisfaction t he "Drotners
in black" were invited to take a hand,
which they did with alacrity and
V'thont much formality. Among the
speakers, who had been invited were:
Hon. J. "Wm president of the
State Alliance; Capt. "?*?lL_ Kin.?ler.
of Richland; Capt. D. P. CT V- s
