Will WIDEN
MAIN Street

For some time the citizens living on
Main street beyond the crossing OF
the Mississippi Central railroad have
been trying to get that street widene0
and make it as wide as the street is in
the center of town and up to the ross
ing.
The property owners took the matter
up with the city conuicl and they
agreed to do all the necessary work
such as moving the pavements already
put down, digging new cutters and
moving back the fences provided that
the property owners would deed to the
city a strip from each side OF the
street wide enough to make the street
after it had been widened 81 feet.
Some days ago the property owners
got together and appointed a commit
tee composed of w. A. Collins, Rev.
E. J. Currie, F. F. Phillips and David
Farley to see the property owners and
have them sign the necessary papers,
so that the work could be commenced
at an early date.
Theo Traction Company has ais
agreed that as soon as the street was
have been widened that they will
place street car tracks there. In
speaking of the success that the COM
mittee was having one of them said
this morning: "All that have had to
do so far is to show the deed and the
property owners readily sign it and [
think that in a very few days We
will have all the deeds signed,

A COMP ARSON Of
POSTAL RECEIPTS

No better criterion of the business
conditions of our town can be found
than the figures of the L. S. Post Of
flee receipts.
Postmaster Collins says that the
receipts for the present year far ex-
ceed those last year and as an ex-
ample he says that for the month Of
July 1908 the receipts were 2,61O96,
while the figures for July 1909 are
SO, $3.50 making an increase of ST.
OOS54.
He stated further that if the pres
ent increase continues that when the
adjustment is made on March 81 Of
next year Hattiesburg will again be
placed in the first class, and that the
office is now really Of the first class
but from the fact that the adjustment
was made last March on the business
of the previous year the office is now
considered an office of the second
class.
In speaking of new additional routes
to be established he stated that he
had made application for three new
rural routes and that the inspector
had lately inspected the proposed
routes and that he had every assur-
ance that they would be established
at an early date.

TOWARD MERIDIAN
Home of a Prominent Citizen Was

Black After insulting and Fright
ening Young White Woman.
MERIDIAN, August rs

MERIDIAN, August 2s.-News
reached Meridian late last evening
from the Suqualena neighborhoo6
twelve miles northwest Of Meridian
that the home OF Mr.. j. B. Williams
had been destroyed by fire by negro
who had first frightened Miss Will
liams, the sixteen-year-old daughter Of
Mr. Williams almost to death by
threats of violence.
AT the hour when this article is be-
/ ing written an enraged body of citi-
zens of the neighborhood are in pur-
suit of the negro behind a pack of
bloodhounds from the county convict
camp. and are headed toward Me-
ridian, being but seven miles distant
Should the negro be captured a
lynching is not improbable.
Threatened Girl With Death.
After the noon meal yesterday Mr..
Williams, who is a widower and who
resides alone with lis daughter, went
TO the field to work.
Soon after her fathers departure
Miss Williams was startled upon see
ing a strange negro suddenly make
his appearance in the yard.
She asked the man what he wanted
and for reply the negro started to-
ward her gruffly demanding her to
make no outcry upon penalty Of
death.
The young lady screamed at the top
of her voice and ran with all of her
might toward the field where her
father was at work.
The negro pursued for few rods
and seeing that further pursuit was
folly turned back, going in the direc-
tion Of the house.
Reaching her father, Miss Williams
almost dead from fright and exhaus-
ton, informed her father of the ne
gro's presence and threat and tney
started together for the house.
When in s.-ht they discovered the
building to be on fire. When they
reached there the flames had gained
such headway that the building and
contents were soon consumed.
There was no insurance to cover
the loss.
The neighborhood was aroused.
bloodhounds secured and the chase
followed. At this hour the chances
of capturing the negro before day
light are good.
The mounted police have gone to
meet the pirsuing posse and if the
negro continue toward Meridian his
capture is almost sure to result.
The negro, it is thought, robbed the
house and then set fire to it in order
to cover his crime.

while cruising along a vast stretct

glacier was named Princeton, being
.christened by Miss Perkins. daughter
of the financier.
The excursionists all went out to
the glacier in small boats. Miss Per.
kns made a daring dash in a swift
launch, and amid falling ice smashed
a bottle of champagne on the face Of
the glacier, exclaiming:
Il name thee Princeton"
Mr.. Perkins will ask the United
Staes government to place the location
and name on the official maps. The

ciers.

WELCOME TO HIN
Probability That One Of the Pritch-

the Capital City.

JACKSON, Miss, August 2S.-Mr.
L. IL. Pritchard, of Meadyille, one of
the members Of the celebrated Pritch-
ard family of feudists, is in Jackson
today, and may decide to locate in this
city for the practice of law, in partner
ship with Mr.. B. W. Griffith, Jr, of
Vicksburg.
Young Pritchard is a prepossessing
looking chap, of evident good breed
ing and education, and has been a
practicing attorney for several years
He has no hesitancy in declaring that
he is tired of living at Meadville, OF
the recurring scenes of bloodshed, and
that he intends to quit the community,
mot because he fears that his own life
may be sacrificed, but because he
don't want to live in any place that is
lin continual turmoil. He has not fin
ally decided whether he will locate in
jackson o. move to Oklahoma.
Il had hoped that the trouble was
ended with the death of DR.. Newman"
said Mr.. Pritchard. Both our fam
lilies have paid a heavy toll, and the
trouble should end. There are many
persons in the county who charge my
family with the attempt on the life of
ERNEST Newman. The impression is
false. When l left town on my vaca-
Ition I felt sure that there would be no
lmore trouble, and that in time the
Pritchards and Newmans would patch
lup their quarrels.
so sure was I that there would Je

realized then that the attempt would
be the signal for more trouble, and
that trouble spelled degeneration for
