Peculiar Hunting Accident.

while out hunting, was accidentally
shot in the arm by companion, Joan
Simmons about seven o'clock Satur-
day morning.
The young men had gone into a
swamp, but on entering it separated
and began to hunt in different direc-
lions. Knight saw a squirrel run
into hollow tree, and being unable
to shoot it, he resorted to the method
known as twisting" to catch the lit
tie animal. This is done by inserting
the end of forked stick into the hole
where the animal is and, by twisting
the stick, entangling the ends of it in
the fur of the squirrel. This action
enables it to be drawn out.
In order to do this Curry was forced
to climb the tree. He began to
twist the squirrel when its "barks"

FACTS ABOUT BOND ISSUE FOR
SCHOOLS.
To the Voters of Hattiesburg:::

10 the Voters OF HattlesbuTg::
On Tuesday, the 25th inst, you will
be called upon to vote for or against a
bond issue of $4,000 for the public
schools of our city. $53,500 of this
sum is to be used in building and
equipping school house on the Main
Street school site, and $1,000 in finish
ing and replastering Hardy Street
school building and in putting sanitary
drinking fountains in all the school
buildings.
1t will require a sixteen-room build
ing to take care of the High school and
eighth grade pupils from the whole
city, and grades 1, 2, 8, 4, 5, 6 and Z
of the Main Street school district.
Two propositions have been care
fully considered, viz:
list. To repair the old building and
add to it new eight-room building.
End. To build an entirely new build
ing.
The Commissioners and School
Board, after much discussion and in
vestigation, unanimously agree that
the second proposition is feasible, and
from every viewpoint the sensible
thing to do.
BY using the salvage in the old
building, new building ample for
present requirements, with a base
ment entirely above ground, well light
ed and ventilated, can be constructed
at cost of $1,000 or $4,000 more than
it would take to repair the old build
ing and add thereto an eight-room
building.
A vote for the bond issue will not
increase anyones taxes. The total
levy now is IL mills. The schools get
~ mills out of this amounts mills
for running expenses and IL mill to
pay interest on school house bonds.
We can and will run the schools and
pay the interest ($4,125) on school
house bonds on the present IL mill
levy and the commissioners promise
to run the other departments Of the
city government on the remaining IL
mills.
Vote against the bond issue and the
High School will have to be aban-
doned for the present to say the least.
We ask you as progressive, intelli-
gent men to make careful investiga-
ton of this matter, thorough study
of it from every viewpoint before you
cast your vote against this bond issue.
