Hattiesburg daily progress. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 18??-1909, 1903-04-09

Not for long time in this state
has there been any outbreak from the
bad niger of Bitter Greek and it was
hoped that everything would remain
quiet for some time to come. But
not so. A few nights ago lady went
out on her gallery at Jackson to ascer-
tain the meaning of noise that was
being made at the time when she
was knocked down by a negro and lay
in an unconscious state for some time.
She was finally restored to her right
senses when she gave good descrip-
tion of her assailant, negro. Since
then the police have been looking for
negro who answered the descrip-
tion and have made an arrest which
they consider an important one. 1t
is to be hoped they have the right
man and that he will be made to
serve time on the state farm. AS
stated, this is the first case of the
kind that has occurred in the state
for some time and it was hoped that
there would be no more.

At present the Newman Lumber
Company will put in only band
saw with capacity of about one
third of the mill burned some time
ago. In the meantime the company
will put in large mill at Sumrall,
a duplicate of the one already estab-
lished there, and the two mills will
run night and day. Between them
they will turn out over one hundred
thousand feet of lumber daily. The
fact that the mill here will not have
the same capacity as the one recently
destroyed is source of regret to our
people, but ar present the company
cannot see that it would pay, though
the Progress has been informed that
if certain arrangements can be effected
the mill in short time may be in
creased to it's former capacity. As
stated in hte Progrsse some time ago
the objection to rebuilding the mill
with capacity of the old mill is the
fact that the logs will have to be
hauled over the Pearl and Leaf Rivers
road for which the company does not
receive cent. If, on the other hand,
cars are loaded with lumber at Sum
rail- or elsewhere on the road and
billed to some other road the Pearl
and Leaf Rivers road will receive Its
prorata for the haul, which will
amount, it is estimated, to about 800,
600 per annum. This amount in il
better than the same amount out, and
is what might be termed pickup,
since the logs would have to be hauled
without any compensation. Thi!
matter has been carefully considered
by the Newman people, and hence the
conclusion to build small mill hers
to take the place of the one burned.

military chief of the establishment
he is a lawyer--a kind of justice of
the peace, as it were, who holds court
every morning, investigates reports
of misdemeanors, and assigns punish
ment to the guilty. The delinquents
are brought to the mast "-the quar-
ter -deck-with their accusers. Both
sides are heard and swift jugdment
usually follows. In this capacity it
will be noted that the captain is
court, judge and jury. Not infre-
quently he acts as clergyman, and as
such is the bishop of his diocese, ac-
knowledging no ecclesiastical SUI
perior, reading the service on Sun
days, officiating at the burial of his
dead, and in the old days occasionally
marrying lovers.
He always messes alone. His gen
erous quarters are entirely separate
from those of the others officers, and
at the door of his cabin stands ma
rine sentry day and night, and none
may enter without first being formally
announced. When he comes on decE
