Scott, to at once bring suit against
those fire and life insurance compa-
MES which have not paid their privi-
lege tax, as levied by The board. 1t
is stated that quite number OF these
companies are delinquent. The law
provides that the Levee Board is priv
LEGGED to collect 100 per cent damages
on all unpaid privilege taxes. Some
of the companies are delinquent fol
three years 1t is learned that there
is only one life insurance company
which has paid its privilege tax and
is authorized to do business in that
district. Quite number of insurance
companies have withdrawn, owing to
the fact that they regard the license

MISSISSIPPI NEWS MATTERS
A Brief Chronicle Of the Important Happenings
Power Completed.

The immense water tower and tank
OF the City Water Works at Biloxi,
is completed. The tower stands on
four pyramids Of concrete, made Of
oyster shells and cement, and from
the ground to the top Of the tank is
l45 feet. A hydraulic ram will pump
water from the city's eight-inch well
into the tank, and it will require 240,-
900 gallons to fill it. The pressure on
the main when the water from the
tank is turned on with full force
will be 20 pounds to the square inch
The structure can be seen for miles
around, by land and sea, and when
as is proposed, it is surmounted with
an arc light, will form a beacon for
navigation which can be seen for
thirty miles. The work will cost the
city. exclusive Of the ram, $4,000.

Fire in Oil Field.

Crowley, s.-Fire in the Jennings
oil field caused great anxiety, and
for a time threatened very serious
damage. Fortunately the flames were
extinguished before any great damage
had been done. The fire started IN
some waste oil, and was soon commu
nicated to small storage tank. For
a time there were very serious fears
that the flames would reach some Of
the big gushers, and that u general
confagration would follow. Howev-
er, the flames were confined to the
one tank and the waste oil. No esti-
mate of the loss can be secured, but
it is said to be comparatively small.
