LOCAL WOODMEN
PREPARING PLANS
FOR A new HOME

There is growing sentiment among
the woodmen in Hattiesburg that it
isabout time for the order to have a
home of its own.
There are two fiourishing lodges
here and the adjuncts that go with
them, with a feminine membership,
and home for them is actually be-
coming necessary. The Leaf River
camp No. 2S has lot on West Pine
street that is being paid for on the
installment plan and the location is
one of the best in the city and the
property will be worth lot Of money
some Of these days.
The subject of fine hallon this
lot has been brought up at times but
as the lot was not paid for complete
ly. no decided action has ever been
taken as to such building. The
ideas as to the building which will
finally grace this splendid lot are
vague but good ones and embrace a
number of stores on the lower floor,
OFFICES on the second and third and a
Woodlands hall on the fourth and
last floor.
But the thing necessary to be done
now is to get the lot paid for and
with that object in view Clerk Fow.
Ter of Leaf River Camp is asking the
members of that camp to get busy and
pay UP the assessments they owe for
that branch of the work. The notice
from the lodge will be found in an
other column and Mr.. Fowler requests
that immediate attention be given
this matter.
AS soon as the lot is fully paid for
the matter of suitable building is
to be taken up and some arrange
ments made to begin the structure as
early as possible 1t is promised that
whenever the Woodmen build a home
it shall be such structure as will be
a pride to the city of Hattiesburg.

CITY COUNCIL in
IMPORTANT SESSION


The meeting of the city council
Tuesday night was an important one
as number Of citizens were present
to ask that their assessments be re-
duced and the council was called up
on to hear their statements before
making a final ruling in the matter.
During the meeting the considera-
ton OF the assessments was delayed
long enough to take UP the matter of
paying bill rendered by DR.. Robert
Donald for attention given to small
pox patients. There seemed to be
some misunderstanding as to an
agreement made with the board of
supervisors as to paying for services
rendered to smallpox patients, arising
from the fact that every one seemed
to think that an order made by the
council empowering Mayor Donald to
employ a physician to look after the
cases, had long ago been abrogated.
The matter was settled after some
discussion by paying the bill and then
resembling through a regular motion
the former action of the council en-
powering the mayor to employ a ply
stefan in smallpox cases. This leaves
the city without any other physician
other than the regular city physician
Among those present to ask for re
auctions in assessments were repre-
sentatives of the Newman Lumber
company, the Davidson company, the
Meridiand Fertilizer factory the trac
ton company and the banks.
The question of the reduction of the
assessments of the banks was left
over until today and will be looked
into. The Newman Lumber company
had its assessments reduced $4,000
the assessments of the Davidson were
dropped from $4,000 to 100000 bu
the fertilizer factory's assessment
stood as the council had already fixet
them

STRENUOUS DAYS
in BOTTOMS COURT

These are strenuous days in Justice
Bottoms court and everything wears
such busy air about the big
Judges rooms that one thinks the
circuit court is in session.
Nearly all of yesterday was taken
up with couple of whisky-selling
cases and civil suit.
The civil suit tried yesterday was
entitled Holmes versus Gruber in
which B. d. Holmes sues G. A. Cru
Der for 1854 due on a note given in
payment of premium on an insur-
ance policy. This case was tried be-
fore jury, the plaintiff being repre-
scented by r. s. Hall and the defense
by A. c. Cherry and when those
gentlemen had argued the case 1t was
given to the jury which finally agreed
to disagree and was dismissed.
Another jury trial was a rather un-
usual one in Judge Bottoms court for
it was case where woman charged
with retailing demanded such trial
and was given it.
The woman was negress named
Mary Carpenter who was arrested
last Saturday night by Deputy
Sheriff McGilvray for retiling at the
same time Vat Yeach Mcdonald, q

Mr.. w. G. Bott, Star City, Ind,
hardware merchant, is enthusiastic in
his praise of Chamberlain's Cough

subject to Group and he has used this
remedy for the past ten years, and

At , o'clock the other afternoon a
strange ma called at the Bowser
house and aske1 if he was home yet
and when answered in the negative
said that he had an appointment with
MIN for that hour and would wait.
While he sat down on the front steps
Mrs. Bowser cudsS! ED her brains as to
what he might want. He was a long,
lean. lank and solemn looking nan.
ae seemed a man who had been dis
appointed in the world and had lost all
hope. She couldn't think he was a man
who had a COW or a balloon to sell.
The mystery had lasted only a quar-
ter of an hour, when Mr.. Bowser came
home. He was walking fast and had a
air about him. After saying
q few words to the man on the steps
he entered the house, and OF course
Mrs. Bowser asked him what was 60
Ing to happen.
THE man out on the steps is a Mr..
Rasher," he replied. II have been talk
Ing with him all the forenoon. He is
man who invented the catch any
thing trap. 1t will catch anything
from a bug to an elephant, and the
man who beat him out of his patent
has made a million dollars out of it,"
lis that why he looks so down in the
mouth?' asked Mrs. Bowser.
He Was an Inventor.
THAT and other things. He Is the
inventor of the double ended nursing
bottle for twins. He brought oft the
