The Mayor Buys
Old Fire Station

Mayor w r. Pattangall now owns
the old Central fire station or what
remains OF II, as ii is being torn down.
He acquired this ownership by pur-
chasing the buildings for the sum of
500 from Samuel Baron, who at the
auction sale paid $50 Just what the
mayor intends doing with the old lum-
Der he would not say.
When the buildings were sold at auc-
ton Baron purchased them as he
thought with the understanding that
he would lie allowed to move them.
Some time after he was informed that
they must be torn down. The electrical
companies made him good offers for
the buildings rather than go to the
expense Of having them moved through
the city streets and tearing down the
wires. He refused their offers.
Baron. later. in an interview with
Mayor Pattangall said he would take
Sl10 for the buildings The mayor
quickly drew a check for the amount
and before Baron could refuse handed
it to him. Baron made out pupers
transferring the buildings to Mayor
Fattangall He made $40 on the deal

QUARTERMASTER
Col. e. B. Baker Will Look After the
States Military Supplies.

Jackson, Miss, Nov. 22.-Acting on
the recommendation of Major e. N.
Coffey U. S. A. and Captain w. T.
Fassett, U. S. A., assigned to the Mis-
sissippi National Guard, Governor
Noel has appointed Col. E. B. Baker
assistant chief quartermaster of the
state militia to take charge of the
government and state property. The
appointment was made by Governor
Noel and it is understood that it is
but temporary, although a strong ef-
fort will be made to have the office
perpetuated during the administra-
ton of Governor Earl Brewer.
The creation of the office to which
Colonel Baker was appointed result
! ed from the confusion which followed
the mobilization of the Mississippi
! troops when called out on October
to quell the strike riots at McComt
City. In several places the troops
were forced to make camp with only
scant equipment. 1t will now be the
duty of Colonel Baker, who will be
assigned to duty in Jackson, to keer
complete record of every piece Of
/ equipment of the state in splendid
condition. At the armory here he ha:
made an inventory, and has notified
the captains of the various companies
that they will he required to Civ,
bond to secure the government anC
the state against loss of military prop
erty.
Major Coffey stated that he is O
the opinion that more equipment, uni
forms and ammunition is lost through
lcarelessness than through actua
|. wear and tear.
The newly created position will pa

RAILROADS ARE TIGHTWADs.

Chicago, Nov. 22.-Western rail-
roads are becoming tightwads in the
matter of reduced fares for holidays
and to convention and expositions, and
a meeting Of Chicago business inter
ests will be held tonight to protest
against the action Of the passenger
men.
Members of the Western Passenger
Association have decided that if Chi
cagoans want to spend the Yuletide
season with paw and nav" back on
the farm, they must pay full fare, and
if paw and NAV want to come to town
they must do likewise. In short, there
will be no Christmas or New Year
holiday fares this year in Western
Passenger Association territory, which
embraces Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Min.
nesota, North Dakota, South Dakota
Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado
and Nebraska The same action was
taken by the roads last year.

tons prevented Mississippi requisi-
lions from being honored.
The receiver accomplished a neat
piece of work at a moment when Rice
little thought that the Mississippi au-
thorities would renew their efforts to
get him back to this state. The pris-
oner will be held here to await the
December term of court, at which he
will go up against a very vigorous
prosecution under the several indict
ments charging him with embezzle-
ment and violations of the state bank
ing laws.

financial panic of 1907, it had less
than ten dollars in the vaults. AL

dollars, less than five per cent of thu
capital stock had been actually pait
in.

succeeded, through influential friend
