MAYORS COURT
A Few More Law Breakers Brought
to Taw.

Mayor Rich was back again in the
police field of harvesting, separating
the chaff from the wheat. His scythe
is sharp, his arm is strong and verify.
there are few that can stand before it.
His honor is tired of the mischiev-
ous boy nuisance and proposes to
eliminate this element. Last night
there were q number of guns dis
charged in one section of the city by
these indolent rascals who will
neither work nor go to school. One
or two of them were captured. An
other of this class was arrested for
swinging trains. Mr.. Rich said that
he was tired of this kind of conduct
and was going to put them on the
streets to give them employment.
The mayor started the ball to roll
ing by fining Claud Lyle $3.50 and
costs for cursing.
Eva Wells entered plea of guilty to
to charge of being drunk and was
fined So. 30 and costs.
George Davis was arrested for car
rying concealed weapons. On his per-
son was found not only the pistol, but
six pairs of dice. Some Of them were
| we'll loaded and fit for crooked use.
Mayor Rich fined him $3.50 and
costs, which will detain him for a
day or so.
Jack Brantley, young white boy,
we'll known in police circles, was up
again this morning before Mayor Rich
on charge of swinging trains. -
Jack plead not guilty, as usual. but
the evidence was so preponderously
averse to Jacks version of the affair
that evidently some one was mistaken
in view of the situation and after due
consideration it was concluded that
| Jack wasn't fit spectator of the oc-
currence in which he figured and
therefore couid not give the most cor
rect evidence. In the light of this
consideration, Jack was fined 81. 80
and costs. Mr.. Rich stated. how
ever, that if Jacks father were there
to give him good, GENTLE tharshing
before him he would remit the 6ne.
There were few other cases but
owing to the absence of witnesses had
TO be continued until Monday.

Charges Against Admin.
| iStratiOn Preferred
WHOLE TOPIC OF DISCUSSION
And There is Some Talk OF I'M
peachment Proceedings
BEING INSTITUTED AGAINST THE
Mayor and the Chief Of Police
of the City.
Special to the Daily Progress.

jackson, Jan. 31.-The sensational
charges brought against the admin
istration of Jackson by the Hinds
county grand jury are now almost
the whole topic Of discussion, and
there is some talk of impeachment
proceedings being instituted against
Mayor Hemingway and Chief OF
Police Taylor. The only peculiar
feature Of the hornets nest has
been stirred up is the fact that the
jury has preferred serious charges
of this nature and failed to bring
indictments. Ordinarily it would
follow that if sufficient evidence
was found to charge the mayor
with malfeasanoe in Office and the
chief of police with embezzlement,
this evidence would also be sniff
ciently strong to demand indict-
ments, but it seems that such is not
the case in this instance.
The mayor is charged with whole
sale use Of pardoning power, remit
|, ting of fines and intimate relations
With the blind tigers and gambling
Ills of the city, while the chief of
plice is charged with collecting fines
IL cash and reporting them as worked
It, forty five instances of this kind
ing preferred against him. The
" council meets in regular session
xt Tuesday, and the proceedings
expected to be of a most spirited
lure when the impeachment articles
are read.

FLEECED AND MULCTED.
Are the Choctaw Indians Who Are

Special to the Daily Progress.

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, Jan. 31.-Thus far the
government has taken no steps for the
protection of the Choctaw Indians
who arsr&eing moved from this state
to the Indian Territory, and the ig-
norant redskins are being thoroughly
fleeced and mulcted by the hungry
horde of shysters lawyers and fraudu-
lent agents who have been busily en-
gagged working up the transportation
business for the past several months.
The average contract signed by these
lawyers and agents to feed and clothe
Indians until they receive their allot-
ment of lands and money would make
Shylock blush with shame, and unless
the government steps in and interferes
a majority of the Indians Will receive
but little benefit FROM the wealth for
which they have waited so many
years. About two hundred Indians
have been moved from Mississippi
within the past ten days.

HORTICURAL ASSOCIATION
Is the Name Given to the Planters
Organization Yesterday.

A number of planters. business mer
and railroad officials assembled yes.
terday at the court house to bring to.
gether in the harmony of improved
methods, all interested in horticul-
tural development.
The meeting was called TO order
with F. F. Phillips acting as tempo
rary chairman. A vote, first, was
taken to elect president. Mr..
Phillips was nominated and elected
unanimously.
A secretary was next in order and
A. Farley, the obliging city clerk,
was elected to that position.
1t was next in order to fix name
for the organization. A suggestion
TO call it the Hattiesburg Horticul-
tural Association was adopted and the
hour and time of meetings fixed
twice a month, on Saturdays, and at
O'Clock p. m.
A committee of three was next ap-
pointed to get all truckgrowers in
Hattiesburg and vicinity interested
and estimate the amount of ship
ment to be done from this section for
the convenience of the railroads that
they may know and be able to furnish
sufficient shipping facilities. On this
committee were appointed Messrs. W.
B. johnson, R. ". Thompson and
Crawford. The secretary was
next ordered TO request Mr.. Bolton
Of Mobile to be present at the next
meeting to give instructions on potato
growing.
Mr. Hearn then made a talk az to
the railroad connection with such
matters and of how much interest it
was to the railroad TO develop the
country. He said that various roads
running in and out Of here would do
everything possible to assure the sue
cess of the movement and urged that
the entire community support it. Mr..
Hearn's talk was we'll received and
entirley acceptable.
The Progress is of the opinion that
this is a good movement and that it
will unionize the heretofore feeble
and scattered efforts of the poor
farmer, giving to them the strength
of property necessary to the Advance
ment fo horticultural interests. All
business men in Hattiesburg and vi
cinity as we'll as planters and farmers
should enter into this effort without
having to be urged. The Progress
wishes the associatin success and will
do what it can to aid it in its lauda-
bic desires.
