WANT OR ST MILL
in HATT|ESBURG
Citizens Are Getting Tired Of the
Western Meal and Prefer the
Homemade Product.

Since the new disease, Pellagra, has
been attributed to the eating of West
ern bolted corn meal, Hattiesburg cit
liens have begun to clamor for an old
fashioned grist mill to be located in
this city where home raised corn can
be ground and converted into meal.
1t is said that there is not grist
mill within several miles of Hatties-
burg, and there is no reason why such
an institution here should not be a
paying proposition.
Aside from being great conven-
fence, consumers would be saved
many dollars annually on the prics of
meal as the bolted product is rather
expensive and not quite so palatable
as the average homemade meal.
There is no doubt but that a grist
mill in Hattiesburg would be kept
busy, and il is hoped that some enter
prising citizen will look into the prop
osition and make arrangements for its
installation. He would be hailed as a
public benefactor.

Roosevelt ChiIdren's Morning Swim.
An amusing incident occurred re-
Gently. The moment that Quentin,
Archie and their sister were in the
water, the unconscious instinct of the
Anglo-Saxon to Guido, sent them swim
ming and splashing to a distance be-
yond the habit of many young Italians
who battle there.
One dark-haired, dark-hued little
fellow surveyed them solemnly, then
separated himself from his race and
followed the foreigners. Every water
stunt they did he solemnly initiated.
When they rested on rocks he mount
ed one near by. If they Owed, he
Owed; not movement of theirs es-
capped him, nor span further
did they swim than he. When the
noon bells sounded they turned and
he followed, and he reached the beach
as they did. They departed to the
bathhouse. His turned, gave them a
look of race superiority. and quietly
returning to the water gave the audi
ence on the sea wall of the Cornice
road an exhibition of extra Italian en-.

Will DISPOSE OF THE
night Rider CASE

UNION CITY, Tenn, September 10.
The counsel for the state in tn
nightrider cases will hold a confer
ence in Trenton tonight to take up the
matter of the further disposition of
the many night rider cases set for
trial here at the present term of cir
cult court.
1t has been rumored that many Of
the persons charged with nightriding
would either be dismissed or allowed
to go on bond and that eventually
the cases would be dropped. This, ID
is claimed, is owing to the fact that
it will be very difficult to secure a
jury in this county.

they are taken up and retired

tie principal coin counterfeited, al
though the coins of smaller denom-
nation, particularly the five-cent
piece, are not below the notice of the
illicit metal workers.
There is no way of estimating the
amount of false coin in circulation,
but it must be very large, as is evil
denced by the fact that one of every
ten coins of the peso denomination in
the ordinary transaction of business
usually is found to be spurious.
The average Mexican of the lower
class is an adept in filigree and gen
eral metal work. The counterfeiting
outfits usually are crude affairs, and
| the coins which they turn out are
good specimens, considering the
rough method of their manufacture.
Few of the counterfeiters take the
trouble to form an elaborate compost
ton for their goods. The majority
of them are content with ordinary
lead. In many instances the coins
are cast in brass and then plated
with silver. The silver plated brass
coins are kept in circulation until the
plating wears off, when they are no
longer accepted in the usual line of
trade.
1t is said that counterfeiters in
Mexico have little difficulty in placing
their product in circulation. In many
instances uncovered by the police and
secret service men the counterfeiters
sold their spurious output to mer-
chants and small dealers in different
cities and the coins were passed out
to customers in a systematic way so
as not to attract undue attention. The
patrons of these small stores and
market places are people of the lower
class for the most part, and the
rudest kind of counterfeit coin is &C.
cepted by them without question or
comment
The counterfeiting of bank bills or
stamps has not been attempted in
Mexico for many years. The execu-
ton of work of this kind requires the
exercise of kind of skill that the av-
erage Mexican counterfeiter is not
possessed of. The nearest approach
to this kind of counterfeiting took
place not long ago when many thou.
sand dollars worth of fraudulent
stree cGr tickets were made and sold
in Mexico City. These tickets were
engraved and were good limitations of
the originals, but it was only a few
days after they were put on the mar
ket before the fraud was discovered
and its perpetrators arrested.
