THE FIRST ANNUAL EXHIBITION
IN HATTIEseURe PROVING

Tomorrow.

The first annual show of the South

that bid fair to make similar shows

The show this year is revela-

those who come from distant locali.
ties as visitors and to enter birds.
AS one enters the building two alley
ways confront the visitor. On either
side of these alleys down the entire
length of the building are arranged
the wellbuilt coops of uniform size
and kind, presenting a neat and at
tractive appearance. The coops are
built with the sides and back of fin-
ished pine and the tops and front of
wire. The bottom of the coops all
contain fresh clean straws and the
specimens that have been entered are
a genuine surprise to both the men,
bers of the association and to those
who have seen the exhibits. There
are. chickens of nearly every variety,
with probably more Barred Plymouth
Rocks than of any other. Then too,
there are rabbits, ducks, geese, ban
tams, turkeys. etc.
The estimate of 300 placed on the
probable number of entries will like
ly reach the 500 mark when all the
birds are in. That the meeting will
prove a genuine financial and educa-
tional success there is little doubt.
Tomorrow afternoon at six o'clock
the doors of the exhibition room will
be thrown open to visitors. The place
will be brilliantly illuminated, strings
of lights having been arranged down
the entire length of the building over
the exhibits. A fee of ten cents ad
mission will be charged to visitors
and it is hoped in this way to par
TALLY defray the expenses that
show of this magnitude has neces-
sarily incurred.
. Tomorrow the judges will be busy
examining the different pens and
making the awards and on Wednesday
the hall will be open all day for the
exhibitors to make sales and to give
information to visitors on the differ
ent varieties of poultry on show

THIRD MYSTERIOUS FIRE
OCCURS SUNDAY MORNING.

The fire department was called out
early Sunday morning from an alarm
of fire that was turned in from Oak
street. An old unoccupied two-story
residence, said to be the rendezvous
for negro gamblers, was discovered
to be on fire. When the department
reached the scene the fire was under
such headway that nothing could be
done, the building being almost
done, the building being al
ready almost burned to the
ground. This is the third
mysterious fire that has occurred
within this vicinity in the past month,
and it is stated that no other cause
could be assigned for this except that
it was of incendiary origin. This
section is hard to get to under any
circumstances and the large number
of fires that have occurred here in
the last few months has been a source
of much worry and thought to Chief
Potter.

The New Orleans express, to the
rear end of which was attached
Melcher's car, was taking water at
Kinmundy at one o'clock when the
Panama Limited ran into the rear,
practically demolishing the private
car. The impact showed the standing
train some distance although the
brakes were locked. The engineer and
fireman of the limited were slightly
injured, but were able to take the
train south as soon as the wreckage
was cleared. 1t is believed that the
wreck was due to the fact that the
engineer and fireman of the limited
forgot about the general order for all
trains to take water at Kinmundy
and the flagman on New Orleans ex-
press had no time to flag the limited.

FARMERS ORGANIZE
A TRUCKERS ASSOCIATION

T. E. McArdle, of McCallum, is in the
city today and announces that the
farmers in that section have banded
together and formed a truck growers
association, and that their efforts in
this direction have met with fine
success. His part of the country is
well adapted to the raising of early
truck and last year a great quantity
was shipped to the markets of the
country. Owing to the lack of Co
operation and a full understanding
between the different growers, the
season did not result as well as if
they had been organized and could
have worked with full understand
ing and in harmony with each other
This year they are going to see that
this condition does not prevail when
the selling time comes around,
and by all planting together they will
undoubtedly reap better returns from
their endeavors. McCallum shipped a
large number of water melons last
year and some of the finest specimens
to be found anywhere were grown
in that section. Mr.. McArdle is
here for the purpose of looking into
the merits of Hattiesburg's Truckers
Association and states that the asso-
citation at McCallum will try to ar
range so that their association and
the one here can work in conjunction.

ciTY's NEW WELL HAS
LOTS OF WATER.

The citys new artesian well on the
lot near the pumping station, has
been completed with the exception of
putting in the strainer and the cas-
ing, and it is thought that this one
well alone will furnish an abundance
of water. The well is 450 feet deep
and over inches in diameter, and is
estimated to give flow of over half
million gallons day. Should the
flow come up to the estimate, it will
not be necessary to use the other four
smaller wells on the lot at all. but an
electrical centrifugal pump can be
placed over the well, and the city
water secured at about one-third Of
what it is now costing.
