The ordinance against fire works is
not limited to the business part of
the city or to the fire district, as some
suppose. 1t says they shall not be
exploded ION the streets of the city,"
and this takes in every street in Hat
tiesburg. The only way that they
can be used is on ones own premises,
away from the streets, or in some va
cant lot.
1t is the purpose of the police to
enforce this ordinance and parties
who want to shoot fire crackers or ex-
plode other kind of fire works would
do well to keep in mind the city ordi-
mace, so as to avoid arrest and prob
able fine of not over $500.

AMERICANS REFUSE TO RUN
zEngIishman Allowed Walkover in 400
Metre Race.

Metre Race.
London, July q Amid the cheers
Of several hundred of his countrymen
Halswelle, the English runner,
walked over" in the final Of the 400.
metre flat race in the Olympic games,
which was run originally last Thurs
day and won by. J.. G. Carpenter, Cor
nell university. This Is the race that
was declared void by the judges on
the allegation, which has been denied
by the Americans, that Carpenter
fouled Halswelle. Carpenter was dis
qualified from competing again and J..
B. Taylor, Irish-American Athletic
club, and w. G. Robbins of Cambridge,
Mass, withdrew and would not run.
Halswelle didn't really walk; he
ran, and ran hard, in an effort to es-
tablish new Olympic record His
performance was a very great disap-
pointment after all that had been con-
fidently expected. It was firmly be-
tlieved that he would clip at least a
fraction of a second off the record of
1915. Instead 1t took Halswelle full
80 seconds to cover the distance.
