And Now the Defendant Is Working on
the County Road.

Meridian.-Considerab talk and in
iignation has been aroused in the city
and county as a result of a case in the
circuit court of a white man, i. J..
Deason, who was charged with having
three illegal wives. The man also has
wife to whom he was legally married.
The three women with whom Deason
illegally lived are sisters, and from the
union, covering, il is said, period of
eighteen years, sixteen children were
born. The father of these sixteen chill
dren IL also the father of five children
by his legal wife, which makes total
of twenty-one children. The man and
his consorts have resided in the Collins
vile neighborhood all these years, and
have never been molested until the pres
ent term of court. The three sisters
are iiliterate and of the poorest class.
They were given short Jail sentences,
and Deason was given a heavy money
fine and sentenced to serve a term on
the county road.

WHAT is A GOOSE"
City Officials Are Worried Over the
Law on Subject.

Jackson.-"Is a goose livestock"
That is a question that is worrying
the mayor, the police sergeant, the
pound keeper and some policemen.
Also it goose really isn't livestock,
and the law says it is, who is wrong,
the law for saying a thing that isn't so,
the goose tor not being what the law
says, or the officials for not accepting
a goose as livestock when it is not as
a matter of fact?
Section sos of the city code says: at
shall be unlawful for any livestock
known as horses, cows, mules, colts,
hogs, sheep, geese and goats to run
at large in the corporate limits and
any SO found running at large shall be
impounded and fee of a dollar head
shall be collected for their release, for
the first offense," etc.
One of the policemen had been re-
ported by somebody who did not like
him, as passing some livestock run
ming at large and making no effort
to impound them. He was escorting a
spawned nag to the pound and spied a
flock of six geese in the street, so he
drove them in, too. Strictly according
to law it will cost the owner of the
geese six dollars to get the geese out
