NEwsY NOTES FROM PETAL.

Petal, Miss, June 5.-AWe are hav-
ing some very pretty weather, and.
the farmers have about conquered the
grass, although crops are very back
ward, but may be we wont know the
difference when harvest time comes.
Hope SO, anyway.
We had a very large crowd out at
Sunday school Sunday evening; some
few enrolled their names. We feel
assured that the people around Petal
are becoming more interested about
going to meeting than ever before.
Today the Woodmen of the world
will have a picnic at Petal. Quite a
crowd of our people are counting on
spending several hours over at Hick-
DRY Grove Sunday next.
The health of the community is very
good.
We have had and are having some
ripe fruit; some of the Hattiesburg
people get excited at the blackberries
along the road sides. They are SO
tempted they have to stop and get
their hands full. Some peaches and
apples are ripe There will be a good
deal Of fruit this summer.

The interest in the series of meet

lumbia Street Baptist church by Rev.
S. E. Tull, of Greenwood, continues
to grow with each succeeding sermon,
and last night the church building was
filled with a congregation that appre-
ciated the great sermon delivered by
the visiting minister.
Mr.. Tull is considerably on the old

tempt to spring surprises or sensa-

them of heaven and hell and of risen

A FAVORABLE
STATEMENT is
EXPECTED SOON

Mr.. F. L. Peck, of Scranton, Pa, is
in the city today and will probably re-
main several days.
From reliable source it is learned
that Mr.. Peck declined to make any
statement in reference to the rebuild
ing of the Newman Lumber plant, but
it is believed that statement will be
given out soon and that it will be
favorable to the rebuilding of the
plant
There are several things that indi-
cate this and there is very little doubt
that the plant will be rebuilt.

The board felt confident that there
were plenty of negroes in Hattiesburg
who would willingly contribute to the
burial expenses and as the deceased

were afraid to set precedent of this
kind for fear they would have too
many negroes to bury, and Patton was

quirement for publicity of campaign con-
tributions could be made to include candi-
dates tor presidential electors was
brought prominently forward today in
the hearing before the House committee
on the election of President and Vice
President and members Of Congress,
which is considering the Mccall bill CALI
ing for publicity OF the contributions to
campaign funds for candidates to Con-
gress. Representative Cochran objected
to the provision of the Mccall bill. which
provides that persons, companies, asso-
Citations or organizations which shall in
two or more states influence the result or
attempt to influence the result of any
election in which members Of Congress
are to be elected" shall file a statement
Of the same. under oath, with the clerk
Of the House OF Representatives. He said
that under this provision the desired
result Of publicity could not be obtained
To meeting this objection Chairman
Gaines asked Mr.. Perry Belmont, presi-
den OF the Publicity League. which is
favoring the Mccall bill. If he would be
willing to have the bill so amended as to
strike out the words 'in two or more
states and make it cover any election.
Mr.. Cochran favored this amendment
and Mr.. Belmont said 1t was satisfactory
to him.
Former Senator Chandler of New Hamp-
shire. who also is supporting the Mccall
bill. gave notice that he did not approve
a proposition that the bill should be so
amended as to include state committees,
and in this Mr.. Belmont agreed with him,
saying that the object of the movement
was to secure publicity Of contributions
to national committees.
