FOR THE TWELFTH TIME.
Prof. D. L. Taylor Elected Principal of Brinkley Colored Schools For
 the Twelfth Year.

It is so far out of the ordinary for colored man to be selected as principal of a public school for twelve years hand running that the ARGUS feels it a duty to comment on the election of D. l.. Taylor as principal of the Brinkley Public School.
 Taylor has been a citizen of Brinkley for the past IS years and is one of the many good col ored citizens who have been a real help in the development of the colored race in this section.
 Taylor has been an industrious. worthy and reliable citizen. He has saved his money and owns a nice farm just east of the city.
 The fact that he has held the principalship of the Brinkley Colored Public School for the past twelve years tells in an un- mistakable way of his leal worth and of the esteem in which he is held by both white and colored people.
 The ARGUS takes pleasure in commenting Prof. Taylor and his work among the colored peo- pie.

Bruce Franks fired the first gun, a 22, then the dog made him take to tall timber. He soon reap peared, tao'wit'l a1 army Colts, and ran madly down the street after his prey.
 By this time "fulislade" of bullets, shot and shells were fly ing from every side at the var mant", but endangering human life more than the dogs.
 One big fat darky came around the depot with a big shot gun just in time for the mad dog" to run between his legs. The darkey rose from mother earth and fired two shots toward heav- en and cried, o Lawd. Save me!
 J. Cannon acted the Bravo" and raised his office window, shut his eyes and fired six red hot shots toward the crowd, for tunately killing no one.
 By this time the streets were clear, and the poor tired dog stopped and sat down on the sidewalk just where the 'croki- nole" game was 12 minutes before being peaceable played.
 In a few minutes a company of strong, brave men were formed in line and advanced upon the little shepherd mad dog" and fired some three dozen shots. When the smoke was cleared away, it was found that the dog was slightly wounded in the front foot, and MT. Bud Franks killed him with a shovel.
 All this time there was going on down in the little green house of our city Marshall, a game of seven up", but upon hearing the loud and much shooting, our ever ready marshall "Mr. BilP' came on double quick time to the scene armed with shotgun, six shooters, and his billy. ' He said he could not imagine what was up, and wanted to be prepared. No coroner's jury was held, but the remains were turned over to the town guard, and all soon became quiet again on the Potomac. However, the occasion will go down in history as one most thrilling. We'll, Uncle John is much pleased with the weather and sudden death of so much grass, and the-looking-upwa of the cotton crop.

MAD DOG SCARE.
Bill Fix Tells of the Excite ment in Holly Grove
 Over the Had Dog.
Holly Grove, July 18th 1910. Dear Editor and Brethren:-

Dear Editor and Brethren.
 1 ain't goin' to make no ex- cuse for my nervousness, nor the occasion. Cause it couldn't t been helped. But Pm going to tell it jus like it was, and let you believe or disbelieve. Now, l won't say which you must do. In fact if you'd been here, you wouldn't do either.
 It was that hot, sultry last Monday afternoon at just half past three D. m. Our little town was placidly peaceable and quiet. Not a leaf was stirring, nor even a honk" of an automobile caused a vibration of the warm air. No clerks were working, no trade was doing. About over the town sat punches of fellow townsmen swapping yarns, or speculatin' on the approaching 'drouth."
 On the shady side of the cor her brick" store sat a lazy group of fellows watching a game of ''crokinole" being played by Uncle Bud" Franks, Dad" Morris, Cub" Franks and Bill Fix, who was also 'time-keeper" for the game.
 Two winning games had been pulled off, and excitement wss running high, about the middle of the third game all eyes were on the game, when all of sud den, the cry mad dog broke the stiffness of a thousand yards. Now. wish I'd had the movin' pictures all rights reserved-of the next 13 minutes.
 No one was to blame for lost game, men or board. The crowd some flew east, some flew west and some fled for ref uge.
 After the right-of-way was cleared, and the mad dog" went snapping up the street, a great mob was formed to pursue the fleeing beast. The Mayor, who soon came out of his hiding, ran seven blocks home to get his big gun and a copy of the town laws to see what must b, done.
 Rue Abramson ran viciously to his hardware store, returning in stantly with a full case of double barrel and automatic shot guns under one arm and box of club shells under the other arm, re- beating simultaneously, Make Ready Firel
 Sid Connolly appeared on the scene with a book on astron omy, and his long telescope to find the course of attraction.
 Harry Weisburd in extreme ex- citement was standing high on a goods box crying off sumner goods below cost.
 Judge Trice, way beside him. self. was working hard with his surveying apparatus trying to make out the difference between trigonometry and calysthenics, while many others were doing worse things still.
 The great multitude, however, were following the terrible mad dog; some had guns, some spades, some fire extinguishers and some none.
 The dog ran North, turned East, then South, thru streets and yards. Children cried, wo- men tainted, and men swcre V

TAFT WILL VISIT
CANAL Zone AGAIN

Washington, Nov. 9-President
Taft returned to the capital today
from Cincinnati, where he went to
cast his ballot in yesterdays election,
but spent only few hours in the city,
leaving this afternoon for Charles
ton, S. c., where he will board the
warship which will take him to the
Panama canal zone. 1t is expected
that the President will be gone about
twelve days. AS four days are requir-
ed for the trip, in each direction, this
will give him four days on the 18TH
mas.
President Taft was urged to make
the tour of investigation by Col. Geo
thals, chairman OF the canal commits,
sion and chief engineer of the big
ditch. The latter declared that the
visits of the chief executive were al
ways source of enthusiasm and in
spiration to the men engaged on the
work, and that a visit at this time
would result in renewed energy and
determination on the part of the Of
ficials and workmen. The President
will also be asked to decide many i'm
portant problems which have arisen
in connection with the work.
