NABBED FOR
CHICKEN STEALING
FOUR NEGROES CHARGED WITH
TAKING D. w. DoOLEYS
FOWLS.

Old Sister Dorking is responsible
for the downfall of Jerry Whitman,
Blance Whitman, Tom Buchanan and
John Woodland, four negroes who now
occupy cells in the county Jail. The
ouartette is charged with taking the
choice Buff Orpingtons of D. W.
Dooley. of Century Mines, whose barn
was burned to the ground on last Sat
urday night. According to the story
told by the blacks to Deputy Sheriff
Whitley, who made the arrests, about
one dozen choice specimens of the
feathered tribe were lifted on last
Sunday night one week ago from
the Dooley premises. They were not
ordinary barn yard scratchers, but
fine fowls with long pedigrees. When
arrested the negroes had number OF
the birds in their possession, and adj
mitted that they were stolen from Mr..
Dooley. All the darkies pied guilty
before Squire Fariss.

TURKEY MARKET
OPENS At nc
SUPPLY is LIMITED AND EVEN
HIGHER PRICES ARE ALTO
GETHER PROBABLE.

Turkeys for Thanksgiving. What
visions for the epicure; what tastes
in the palate, what pictures of mince
pie and "punkin" and sweet taters
and celery and other accessories of
the nations day of thanks do these
three words bring to prosaic man.
One can almost taste the pies that
mother made; revel in the sweets of
the holiday season and smell the aro-
ma of what ought to be the national
bird as it comes steaming, cooked to
the delicious autumn brown garnished
with chestnuts or stuffed with oysters.
But this toiler in the moral vine
yard had started out TO write about
the mundane markets and here he is
going off into a discourse on what an
ideal thanksgiving dinner should be,
as if a newspaper man could buy tur-
keys when they are selling at IL cents
the pound a month before the great
feast day. And there's the rub, don't
lay the thanksgiving diner too much
to heart, don't dream too much on
turkey, for unless you are an "unde-
sirable citizen" "malefactor of great
wealth" or Pullman car porter you
need not expect to indulge in the lux
ury of turkey this Thanksgiving.
The local market is already lively
and turkeys are eagerly sought by
the dealers at twelve cents. But the
demand is greater than the supply and
very few have so far been offered. 1t
will perhaps be a week before any
great quantities of the bird will be
received here. Higher prices than to-
days opening would not cause sur
prise.
Eggs are strong at twenty and one
half. while hens are weak.

EDWARD D. LOONEY
FOR COUNTY JUDGE
ENTRY OF FORMER JURlST IN
CONTEST WILL ADD INTEREST
TO WARM FIGHT.

Although there has been good
deal of speculation as to what the at
titude of Judge Edward D. Looney
would be toward the race for County
Judge and many predictions have
been made that he would enter the
race, the Judge has been silent until
this morning, when he boldly announc-
ed that he would be candidate.
This announcement is sure to add to
the interest in the county campaign.
He is strong and forceful character
with strong attachments. His friends
are a legion and an active and agrees
sive campaign may be expected.
Judge Looney was elected Chairman
of the County Court of this county in
1894 and served in that capacity I'M
til the office of county judge was Gre
ated. He was elected to that posi-
ton but in May, 1902, resigned and
moved to Mississippi where he has
resided the greater part of the time
during the past seven years. Howev-
err, Judge Looney has always taken
lively interest in the affairs of this
county and has been frequent visit
or. His record as County Judge is a
source of pride to his friends and a
credit to the county.

STOLEN MULE
IS RECOVERED
LOCAL OFFICERS LOCATE AMI
NAL, BUT THIEF HAS NOT
BEEN APPREHENDED.

Il A mule said to have been stolen
IoSn J R. Caruthers, of Whites Blum,
Fenn, and valued at $225,00O, has
been recovered by the local police
and will be returned to his owner.
The mule was purchased by Lee Kan
non Of Lawrenceburg, from a man
giving his name as w. w. Whitseli.
Mr' Ramon gave in payment check
TOT $4,000 on the Phoenix National
BANK, Of Columbia. Mr.. Caruthers

mule and with the aid of the Column
oia officers located the animal, which
mas been identified as his property.
Mr. Ramon was an innocent pur-
CHASER, and at present is out the

the check can be held up before 1t is
'ashed. A reward has been offered
