Liner AGROUND
SEVERAL HOURS
Kaiser Wilhelm II. Taken from
Shoal, Where Steamer Stuck
During Thick Fog.

NEW YORK, Feb. Awhile trying
to grope her way int New York har-
Dor through a binding fog today the
steamer Kaiser Wilhelm H., from
Bremen, ran aground on the edge OF
Gedney channel and was stuck fast
for several hours. There were near
ly 1000 passengers on board. AS the
bottom of the bay was either mud
or sand it is believed that the
steamer suffered no damage. Tugs
were despatched to the assistance OF
the steamer as o as the accident
was reported by wireless.
The steamer was ioated soon after
noon and an attempt was made to
take her out through the channel where
she might anchor in open water until
the fog lifted.

new OFFICERS
OF COMPANY
They Have Taken Charge and
Local Soldiers Are Prepar-
ing For Encampment.

On Tuesday night the newly elected
officers of Co. l took charge. OF
course new officers call for new plans
and new methods of obtaining results,
but to a majority of the company 1t
was very gratifying to see that while
newly elected yet they took the reins
in hand like veterans.
The officers as well as the men are
enthusiastic about the company and
its welfare and they indeed have Il
right to be for the national guard OF
today is altogether a different soldier
that the so called tin soldiers Of a
few years ago They are soldiers and
soldiers in earnest, and they mean
much to any locality during times of
peace and at times they have proven
themselves little less than heroes.
Every man who joins the national
guard now may assure himself of two
things, physically he will be benefited
and he can rest assured that if he be
called out for duty he will receive
the same pay as if he were in the
regular army
The state encampment is to be held
in Jackson sometime in July and this
means ten days of regular army life
with enough pleasure added to make
it most enjoyable trip. The officers
as we'll as the members of the com
pany, will be glad to talk with any
one desiring to enlist. With the
young men in Hattiesburg ought Q
have one of the best companies in
the state.
In conversation with one of the To-
cal officers a few days ago the off
Gals at Jackson assured him that they
would do all in their power to helr
tAe company and that means much &C
the soldier boys.
Luiet Beaumont notified the boys
Tuesday that at the next drill meeting
the company would begin to get dowr
to drilling for encampment. The Hat
tiesburg company made a creditabl'
showing at the encampment last yea
and it wants a better record this year
The officers of the regiment ar
looking for a good record from Co.
They were here during the last U.
inspection and spoke very encouraging
ly to several of the boys.

Cured in front Of the county court
house on Main street and Allan was
wounded in the neck by pistol bull
lei. Quite a number of Witnesses
were examined on the part of defense
in support of the pleas in justification.
These were self-defense and tenn
porary insanity at the time of the
shooting. The defendant claimed that
threats had been made against him
by Allan and that prior to the shoot
ing Allan had made a demonstration
against the defendant, which lead the
defendant, Rodgers, to believe that he

court gave the defendant the benefit
of a number of charges bearing on the
question of the temporary insanity,

And What Do You
Know About This?

The police room is answering use
full purpose, the men themselves pur-
| chasing some gymnastic goods to de-
veiop wind and strengthen themselves
by exercise, but the other departments
of the city government are Quitting"
in. AT the present writing the skyrock-
ct member of the force, Officer Travi-
neer, is the champion, having lifted a
100 pound dumb bell nine times above
his head. His nearest competitor for
heavy weight lifting is Street Commits
sioner Jere Crafty of Celtic origin, who
hoists the 75-pound dumb bell above
his head nine times. Officer Gallant is
promising man, who is first trying out
minor stunts before he breaks into the
heavy class. Officers Butler and Libby
are the heavyweights of the force and
regale their listeners with stories of
great lifts they made in private and
their fellows believe they are cham
pions-but of another class. 1t would
be a crying shame to mention the do
ings of other department men but the
public can make their own deductions
but lest We forget, a grocer's clerk,
George Gamache, II years old, has them
all beaten to fragile.
