A payroll aggregating $6,617.S7 was

Prior to it's passage Mr.. Rice presented
a motion that claim of the Akron Wa

stated that the service had been Civ

be paid for by citizens living in the
streets flushed.
'Is that in accordance with their

H'The company furnishes all the wa.

street flushing, but this work was done
by private arrangement for citizens,

Mississippi Negro Paid a Fearful
Penalty.

Gulfport, Miss, Nov. 5.-A negro
whose name has not yetcbeen ascer-
tanned, was burned at the stake in
Perry county, Mississippi, Saturday
night.
The crime for which the negro was
burned was committed early Saturday
morning. Mrs. Fortenberry, the wife
of prominent county resident, was
the victim. She was attacked, beaten
into unconsciousness and criminally
assaulted by the negro. After recover
ing consciousness and while yet al
most too weak to move she began
crying for help. Within short time
assistance reached her, and she told
the story of the crime. The negro
was described and a posse organized
and a search begun for the criminal.
A negro answering the description
given by Mrs. Fortenberry was caught
and carried back to the home and
there positively identified by the VIC
tim. At first he denied committing the
deed, but soon made full confession.

The Firestone Tire and Rubber Co.,

The report that the Diamond Rub

Confirmation; but from reliable
source comes the information that the
factory will be built. The Diamond
Co., could undoubtedly make money
on reclaiming plant alone, in Eng
land. AS it is now, great deal of
rubber scrap is imported by this coun-
try. 1t is only reasonable to suppose
That this scrap could profitably be re-
raaimed before being shipped here.
