HELD THE LAW
WAS NOT VIOLATED.
Case Against Sam Estes for Violating
Sunday Law Dismissed.

Mr.. Sam Estes, who conducts meat
market at 506 Main street, was arraign-
ed before Mayor yardaman last Tues
dag afternoon for violating the Sunday
law.
The evidence showed that the meat
was bought on Saturday and delivered
to the purchaser the following day.
Judge Coleman represented Estes and
Mr.. b. L. Mounger the city. The City
Attorney virtually advised the court to
dismiss the case, inasmuch as the pur-
chase was not made on Sunday.
The Mayor very promptly dismissed
the case, stating that there were SO
many people who have no ice boxes and
refrigerators, and were not prepared to
to take care Of fresh meats at home over
night and Sunday, he was of the opinion
that 1t was not a violation Of the law
even for the markets to make sales Of
fresh meats on Sunday. His decision
met with the hearty approval Of the
large number Of people present at the
trial.

LET'S HELP THE
YELLOW FEVER
sufferers, Who Are In Need And Dis
tress.

The people Of Talluiah, Patterson, and
other yellow fever infected points in
Iouisiana are in distress and need OF
the actual necessities Of life.
As suggested to the Commonwealth
by Manager P. s. Burt, Of Armour & Co.,
the other day, ID is difficult to appreci-
ate the want of communities infected
with this plague unless you have been
through siege of the disease.
Mr.. Burt suggests that the people of
Greenwood make contribution to the
sufferers at the points mentioned, and
is ready to head the list with $1,000.
This is good suggestion, and we
hope some one will take hold Of the mat
ter and secure handsome cash dona-
tions for our needy Louisiana neighbors.
