Big TIGER HUNT BY
OFFICERS LAST night

Deputy Sheriff Dan McGilvray vent
hunting again last night accompanied
by Police OFFICER Tom Moore, and the
game they went after was big game
they were hunting tigers.
The result shows that they were
quite successful as they succeeded in
landing six, which is very good work
for one night.
They arrested the following parties,
all negroes, on the charge of selling
liquor: Ed Banks. Prince Morgan,
Pomp Booth, Dolly Patterson, Maidie
Gordon, Ella Bennett, alias doll
Baby"
Maidie Gordon had just been re-
leased on charge of selling liquor
and was arrested on the same charge
in about six hours after her release.
Some of the parties have been be-
fore the courts before on the same
or other charges.
1t appears that the negroes are a
long time learning that it is very
dangerous thing for them to engage
in the unlawful sale of whisky. Some
times they are the dupes of some
white man who induces them to VIC
late the law in order that he may gain
thereby.
The cases will come up for hearing
in Justice Wallis court tomorrow.

negro BOY CHARGED
With SOLICITING
FOR DRAYMAN

A diminutive negro, Ed Oliver, was
before the police court this morning
charged with soliciting baggage on the
platform of the Gulf and Ship Island
station yesterday. 1t is against the
ordinances of the city for anyone to
solicit baggage on passenger sta
ton platform. 1t is said that some of
the draymen have been trying to
evade this ordinance by inducing little
negroes to go on the platforms and Sc
cure valises Or other baggage for them,
paying the boys a small amount for
commission.
Oliver didn't seem to realize the ma
ture of the infraction of law that he
had committed, and while it was
shown that he had solicited baggage,
yet owing to his youth, Justice John
son let him off with reprimand, sus
pending sentence during good be-
hayior. The boy promised to get job
and go to work.

MORE INVOICES
Being DEPOSITED

One of the best evidences of re-
turning prosperity and that the de-
mand for lumber is on the increase
is shown by the fact that more in
voices for lumber are being deposited
with the local banks now than for
some time.
A gentleman in a position to know
stated this morning that many more
invoices were being placed now than
at any time since the financial strin-

When lumber begins to bring a
fairly good profit, the lumber business
will become active and there will be

continue to grow showing a substan-
tial and permanent revival of the
lumber industry.
