INTERESTING CASE
IN JUSTICE COURT
j. T. Joyce Tried by Judge Davis for
Injuring Horse-case Taken
Under Amusement,

A case which attracted more than
ordinary attention was tried before
Justice of the Peace Davis Saturday
afternoon when ]. T. Joyce, horse
shoer, was arraigned on charge of
cruelty to animals.
The affidavit for Joyce's arrest was
made on information furnished by DR..
E. M. Davenport, DR.. F. w. Queen and
other members of the local humane So
ciety. At the trial Saturday John
Petro testified that on the Saturday
previous he had sent a horse to Joyce,
requesting that the animal be shod.
The horse was returned to Petro some
time during that afternoon, and it was
noticed that it's nose and mouth had
been badly burned. Petro called Joyce
over the telephone, he stated, and
asked him what had happened to the
animal, and was told that it had
burned itself by putting its nose
against hot horseshoe.
According to Petro, Joyce said the
occurrence was purely accidental, and
said that he would pay for having the
animal treated by veterinary sur
geon and would not charge anything
, for the shoeing. Petro sent the horse
to DR. Davenport for treatment, and
requester Joyce to pay the bill. This,
tsaid Petro, Joyce refused to do.
Memebers of the Humane Society
who saw the animal after it had been
burned testified that the injury would
not have been sustained in an acci
dental manner. DR.. Davenport testi
fed that, lin his opinion, the horse
could not have put its nose against
the hot iron with sufficient force tC
cause such burn.
Joyce testifying in his own behalf
said that the occurrence had beeI
purely accidental; that his shop wa
crowded with horses at the time ant
he was in hurry; that he had gont
TO the forge, taken out red-hot horse
shoe and placed it upon the end of (
punch, holding the punch in his hand
In stopping to examine horses foot
he said, he felt jar against the puncl
which he held in his hand, and upoI
looking around, saw that Petroi
horse had been burned. Whether tht
horse had put its nose against the no
iron, or whether he had accidental!
placed it against the animals nose
Joyce was unable to state. A negr,
who works for Joyce, stated that tn,
occurrence was accidental.
After hearing all the testimony
Judge Davis took the case under ad
visement, and has not yet rendered
decision.

SPIRIT OF OPTIMISM
GENERALLY PREVAILS
Real Estate Transactions Are Becom-
ing Lively And Every Line of Busi-
ness Shows Gratifying Improve
ment.-5is Boom Coming.

Nothing short of cyclone, an earth
quake or other providential interfer-
ence can prevent the tidal wave of
prosperity from engulfing Hattiesburg
within the very near future. In fact,
it's forerunners are already being felt,
and the people are wearing an express
sion of satisfaction which has not been
noticed to such an extent since the
prosperous days of 1907.
One of the surest indications that
to remain permanently lies in the fact
the feeling of confidence has returned
that more building is in progress here
now than at any time during the past
four years. Perhaps a score or more
of substantial new homes have been
completed within the past thirty days,
while a large number are now in
course of construction.
One of the very finest and hand
soonest residences in Mississippi will
be that of Mr.. w. S. F. Tatum. on
Main street, which will probably be
completed by December 1st. The
palatial home is to cost $4,000, and
will be an ornament to the city and a
testimonial of the faith which Mr.
Tatum has in the future growth of this
city.
No less beautiful and magnificent
aill be the residence of Mr.. H. A.
Camp. on Corinne street, contract for
the erection of which will probably
be awarded within the next few days
This fine home will cost not less than
$4,000, and will be one of the most
imposing structures in Hattiesburg.
Mr.. Camp has planned a home which
will not only be thing of beauty, but
one which will be supplied with every
imaginable convenience for the com
fort and pleasure of its inhabitants.
People never build such palatial
homes as these in towns where the
least doubts exist as to the future Of
the community, and the example SCI
by Messrs. Camp and Tatum has al
ready stimulated others to feeling
of confidence and optimism which is
bound to prove of great benefit to Hat
tiesburg.
The fact that the State Normal Col
lege will be located in this city Great
ed a feeling of confidence which
could not, perhaps, have been pro
duced by any other cause, and as {
consequence people are already look
ing about for real estate investments
which they would not have thought o
six months ago. Everybody appear.
to feel that things are on the upward
trend and there can be no doubt tina
Hattiesburg is on the eve of anothe
substantial "boom."

WHIPPED WOMAN
TO STOP CUSSING
Warden of Georgia Convict Camp Rep
rimanded.-state Prison Commits
sion Makes investigation.

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. 19.-For whip
ming Annie Claire (white) an IN
mate of the Fulton county female
convict camp, DR.. o. o. Tanning, a
deputy Jail warden, has been repri-
manded by the state prison commis-
sion. The question of dismissing
Dr Tanning was before the commits
sion. but the lighter penalty was i'm
nosed when it was testified that the
nunishment was not cruelty admins
tered. A woman witness said that
the skin was not broken that no
bruises were in evidence, and that
the marks outlined by the strap were
such as might be found on a child af-
ter whipping.
DIR. Tanning told the commission
that "cussing and obscenity" by the
nrisoner were the reasons for the
punishment. The commission asked
him to repeat the woman's words, but
quickly called halt when they were
given. General Clement A. Evans,
member of the commission, made the
statement that the whipping OF a
white woman, while not directly
against the rules of the prison com
mission. Is against their spirit.
DR.. Tanning testified that after The
whipping a cloth gag was resorted u
and that it was more effective thai
corporal punishment.

Railway COMMISSION
I. FOR TWO COUNTRIES
United States and Canada to
Regulate Rates Through In
ternational Board.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-An inter
.,,;oual railway commission with sup,
.,y;sory authority over railroads op
,,,t;ne between the United States and
canada. practically is assured. After
l,.g negotiations between the United
ststes and Canada, a conclusion was
,..ched that, in the course of a few
-opths, regulatory authority will be
attended over railway operations be-
sxeen the two countries.
Martin A. Knapp, chairman Of the
;rtsystate commerce commission and J.
q Maybie, chief Of the railway com
Sission of Canada, have been in con-
isrence for several days and reached
a. agreement last Wednesday. They
sslIed at the department of state to-
Ssy and presented their joint report.
The text is not available, but it is
luoVn that they have agreed on an
1ternational railway commission,
Tbich shall have supervisory authority
aver railway lines doing an inteTna-
iioual business between the two coun-
,res. This is to extend to the regu
i,tion of freight and passenger rates
and also to through rates and joint
,stss M and through bills of lading be
tVsen. points in one country to points
n the other. The commission may be
sppealed TO by shippers or carriers in
stber country for relief from what
tbey may deem oppressive methods or
excessive rates.
The principal subject under consid
ration was the method by which the
fsorumission should be created. 1t was
finally decided to recommend that the
arrangement between the two countries
.hould be concluded by treaty rather
tbsn BY joint legislation.
