The little child of Oscar Carroll
died yesterday evening after a few
days illness.
-
Marshal Ben Moffett returned from
Meridian this morning where he has
been on business.
Work Will be resumed on the new
building of the First National Bank
as soon as some material ordered
some time ago arrives. which is ex-
pected in day or two.
-
The railroad people predict that
the excursion next Sunday will be a
big affair Notwithstanding the heat
ness of the hot. The crowd doubt
less will be large, but there will be
room for all.
1t Is said that the people up at
Laurel are still voting for Bowers.
The good people of that city never
do things by halves. And Bowers
no doubt highly appreciates the
handsome majority they gave HIM.

The weather clerk is respectfully
informed that Hattiesburg has for
some time been very dry city and
that it would be very thankful at
this time for little rain. This is q
prohibition city, but it does not
want the thing run to an extreme,
hence these tears for rain.

A marriage occurred in the clerk 8
Office at the court house yesterday
afternoon. The contracting parties
were E. P. Hall and Miss Lula Gar
ner. The knot was tied in the most
approved manner by Justice Wall.
The groom was from McHenry and
said he had captured his bride from
up the road"

There nave been some very tine
peaches brought to this market, but
the trouble is there was not enough
Of them. This is fine fruit section,
as indeed it is fine for other products,
even redheaded children, but the
farmers do not seem to take enough
interest in the industry-we mean
the fruit. Peaches and other such
fruit sell at fair profit, considering
the small amount of labor required,
and it has fine sale at any season of
the year.
The congressional election in this
district is is over and what little ex-
element that was created in HattIes-
burg has passed like snow ball in
an August sun. Since this is the
case it would be a very pious idea if
the good and progressive citizens of
the city would turn their attention
to the board of trade recently organ
lied and for which a charter has
been applied. OF course at this time
nothing much can be done except to
keep an interest in the matter, but
by no means should this lag lfor a
moment.

Distribution of Funds.

for her to ask the aid Of the organizations
interested. Two of the four mentioned will
have a meeting of their national conven-
tions in October at the same time as the
encampment of the Grand Army of the Re
public.
1t is customary to serve lunch to the
working delegates in the national conven-
tions of each. To provide for these lunches
the local organizations in the District of
Columbia have pledged themselves. The
Woman's Relief Corps committee which
had for its chairman the president of the
department, Mrs. Ida A. Oldroyd. expects
to serve lunch to 600 officers and delegates
of Its national convention. The Ladies of
the G. A. r., Mrs. Emma Hawkes. chair
man, Will be prepared to serve lunch to
about go in its national convention and
the other organizations of women will do
the same.
Each of these organizations will collect
Its own money and eXpend ii in its own
way. While 1t Is ostensibly for Mrs. Mus
Sey, she Will not handle a penny of it. nor
will she direct a penny of its expenditure
Yet the aid will be rendered her in reliev-
ing her of the burden of raising the funds
for each.

the army nurses.
''All the women's organizations have
gone theoretically to work to raise these
funds said Mrs. Mussey. They are
working in the utmost harmony with each
other, and l hope the public will be kind
to them. 1t is aSwell known fact" con-
tinued Mrs. Mussey, that women form a
large contingent Of these national encamp-
ments, and that they come prepared to
spend lots Of money in the shops. We
want to entertain them generously and I
belleVe that we shall be able to do this"
