was a young man from the India
country who had been convicted of
murder in the second degree, and
given ten years in the penitentiary.
His case was on appeal but through
his escape his right to an appeal
was forfeited. He was recaptured on
a freight train at Plano.
After Willis attorneys secured
reversal of his case the matter hung
fire in the court here long time. He
was finally tried the second time and
convicted of manslaughter. He was
given a term of four years in the
penitentiary.
The pardon for Willis was grant
ed by Governor Campbell on a rec
ommendation made by the board of
pardon advisers. The matter was
presented to the board some time
ago by Attorney viii Hancock of
this city. He prepared a transcript
of the records, secured about five
hundred signatures to petitions and
submitted them to the board. One of
the petitions was signed by all the
jurors who convicted Willis. by
Judge billiard, before whom he was
tried by County Attorney Mark
Smith and his assistant Hon. W H.

RIVER To HIGH
TO MAKE START
Launch Came Up Leaf River From
PascagouIa and Experienced but
Little Difficulty in the Passage
Draws Three Feet of Water.

The U. S. Survey launch, Naomi.
which arrived yesterday evening in.
readiness to carry Assistant Engineer
NJ. L. Pratt down the Leaf River, is
now moored at the River avenue
bridge, awaiting instructions. Since
the river is now above normal stage
and the engineer will not come until it
has fallen so as to be easily examin-
ed. The Naomi is a thirty-two foot
gasoline launch of about teh-foot beam
and draws about three feet of water.
She has a fourteen horsepower .gaso-
line engine and can make abodt seven
miles per hour.
The launch is in charge of c. e.
Olson, the assistant surveyor, who re-
ports trip with little difficulty.
Three days were consumed by the
trip and only two troublesome shoals
were encountered, although much
trouble was occasioned by snags be-
tween Augusta and this city. The trip
was much less difficult than had been
anticipated and although they do not
like to express their opinions before
the regular survey is made, the crew
are evidently OF the opinion that the
river can be made navigable with lit
tie expense.
Many citizens have expressed sur
prise that a boat of three-foot draught
could come up this far in the present
condition Of the river and are conf
dent that when the engineer has made
his survey he will report favorable to
an appropriation for the purpose of
clearing The logs and removing the
few sandbars so as to open the river
for navigation by small steamboats,.
Many people have visited the launch
and talked with the crew about their
trip and the condition of the river
and all who have done so have return

PIKE COUNTY
WANTS SCHOOL
OF AGRICULTURE
Board of Supervisors viii Be Asked
to Provide by Taxation for the
Support of the Institution.

MAGNOLIA, Miss, August 3.-The
agitation in this county last year
with reference to the establishment
of a county agricultural high school,
will be renewed this year when the
board of supervisors comes to fix the
levy of taxation for the current fiscal
period. Last August the county school
board called for proposals for the To-.
cation of the school, and in response
thereto several communities sub
mitted propositions. That of Walkers
Bridge, the community clustered about
the big iron bridge spanning Bogue
Chitto river, fourteen miles east of
here, was considered decidedly the
best and its proposition was acreu-
ed. 1t then remained for the board
OF supervisors to provide in the tax
levy a one-half mill tax for the sun
port of the school, but this the county
solons declined to do, and the mattec
has remained in statu quo Repre-.
sentative citizens here today state that
there is no doubt but that sentiment
In this county is largely In FAVOR OF
the school, and it is proposed to pre-.
sent the board of supervisors with a
strong petition, praying that BODY to
do the remaining thing necessary to
establish such an institution at Walk.

Sims, of Tennessee, Says bor't Buy

Public Officials.

WASHINGTON, August S.-The pur-
chase of automobiles for the priyate
use of government officials was made
the subject Of a severe attack by Mr..
Sims of Tennessee, during considera-
ton of the urgent deficiency appro-
priation bill. The senate adopted an
amendment appropriating $4,000 for
the purchase of vehicles for the speak,
er and vice president, and this as
well as other senate amendments
were later disagreed to. Mr.. Sims
criticized the use of automobiles by
the army and expressed his convic-
ton that it was an outrage for the
government to provide automobiles
for the private use of officials while
six to twelve dollars pensions were
being paid to widows and soldiers
and the salaries of clerks were being
pared down to reduce expenses.
