The attendance at the school Sun

BIG FISH FRY, BUT NO FISH
The Basket Went One Way and the
Picnickers Went Supperless With
Coming Appetites."

About fifteen young couples
planned for a moonlight picnic at
Melton's mill on last Friday even
ing. The promoters of the idea
gave it out that fish fry would be
pulled off, and the crowd gathered
by teams and automobiles with ap-
petites fully whetted for the occa-
sion. They could have done Justice
to a whole tribe of the finny delica-
cies, but the disappointment came
when no fish appeared.
1t was first thoughtthat the party
had been made the butt of an April
fool joke, but investigation showed
tnat nothing of the kind had been
attempted. Ample provision had
been made. The boys bearing In
mind the usual success of a fishing
party had procured a nice string by
the silver hook method. These with
the other goodies and the cook had
been sent on earlier in the day, and
through a misunderstanding were
carried to Jones mill, some
miles above town.
The picnikcers went supperless,
but no doubt the negro cook had his
fill that once.
Moral-When you picnic keep
company with the eats. They may
go astray.

A RESIDENCE WAS BURNED.
Mr.. G. A. Gibson Lost His Home by
Fire Monday Afternoon.

Fire Monday Afternoon.
Fire broke out in the residence of
Mr. G. A. Gibson, on Lee street,
Monday afternoon and the building
was burned to the ground in spite
of the efforts of the fire department
to check the flames. A high wind
was blowing at the time, and the
flames, which started on the roof,
spread rapidly to other parts of the
house.
1t is thought that the fire was
caused by burning paper going out
at the chimney and falling on the
roof, as some paper was burned in
one of the fire places just before the
flames were discovered.
Most of the furniture was saved.
Mr.. Gibson estimates his loss at
about $4, 800. He had $1,000 insur-
ance on the residence, and 1915 on
householdgoods.

SHOOTS TELEPHONE CABLES
The Small Boy With the ParIOr Rifle
Is Doing Damage That Is Ex-
pensive and Annoying.

The small boy with the parlor rife
is getting in his work in a way that is
expensive as we'll as annoying.
He is using the cables that contain
the wires of the Dawson Telephone
Co. for targets, and has put num-
Der of bullet holes through them, the
result being not only much expense to
the Company in repairing the damage,
but annoying to its subscribers, as the
wires in punctured cable are of little
service. Recently all of the wires on
one street were practically out of com

for which there is no excuse, and I'M
