A NORTH CAROLINA 'PossUM HUNT
Described by Col Olds in the April Number of
the Outing Magazine.

The current number (ApriD of the
Outing" magazine contains a short but
interesting article by Col. F. A. Olds. of
this city, on "a North Carolina Postum
Hunt" In course of his paper the writer
introduces with good effect some charac-
teristic negro dialect, adding much to the
vividness of his description and showing
some odd mixtures of fancy and fact in
the colored mans ideas of things.
''Tho perquistes for a hunt" the writer
goes on to say, "are a negro, an elderly
one preferred, a couple of dogs, kept up
during the day SO as to be sharp for the
hunt, q light, an ak and a sack. There
are two kinds OF hunts. One is de all
night the other de half night The
darkeys say, De bigges' 'possums walks
JUS TO day. De kitten 'possums comes
out early But none I'm EN- walks when
de moons shinin'. Dey's feared O. dey
shadder Den dey's curu bout layin' up
| in de col nights. In er mighty col time
| you ketch 'possum, en- look at de tip
| o. his tail You'll find it right raw, en-
sometimes chawed right down to de bone.
| He don't want to leave his warm bed en-
go out, en- so he sucks his TAIL SO says
the veteran possum hunter while he is
|
ready fer the hunt
The ''fixins," the writer goes on to say.
are getting the light, a sack, an ak and
releasing the dogs. These are the hun
| ter's part of de rangements.'
1.-THE white man must be prepared to
| do some 'fixin', too. The chief prepara-
ton on his part is in the shape of size
/ able flask of whiskey for where is the
darkey to be found who does not love a
dram?' Not on this earth. 1t is consid-
cred very bad form to take q drink until
a possum is caught, though sometimes a
tired darkey, after quite a long period OF
i'll success, will take nip He will say,
Has yer got dat bout yer" You know
what he means by dat and say, Yes,
and then he says. Well, b'leve I'll jus
take smeeium." BY this he means "a
| little taste
The description Of the possum hunt
that follows is good one and true to
life.

A MONTHLY CITY BALANCE SHEET.
The City's Annual Report Not to Wait For the
Report From the School Committee

Commencing with Friday nights meeting
the board of aldermen will begin a sys-
tenn of making financial reports that will
result in economy of expenditures. 1t
will be a monthly balance sheet made out
by the city clerk and presented at every
regular meeting of the board. This re-
port is to show the amount appropriated
to each department and how much of it
has been spent Such a report will serve
al a check on the various committees in
their expenditures, and at the same time
keep the public informed as to the con-
duct of the city affairs.
The aldermanic committee and city
officers are now busy preparing their re-
ports for presentation to the board Fri
day night. The report will be sent to the
printer at once instead of waiting year.
as has been done once or twice before, for
the public school and hospital reports.
The hospital report handed in yester
day, and the school report will be print
ed at the close Of the school year as a
separate report. The change is a good
one; the taxpayers are entitled to a re-
port OF the conduct Of the affairs of the
city at the close of the fiscal year.
