The Meridian Board of Trade is

tion of the enterprise and Good
Roads Convention has been called
at Meridian for the 26th.
Boards of Supervisors of the

meeting. Rides will be given over

reputed the best in the South, and
opportunity thus given for compar-
ison and improvement in roads and
methods.

NEW BRIDGE AT THAYER COLLAPSED THIS MORNING
HAD ONLY BEEN OPENED YESTERDAYS FEET
GO INTO CREEK BED BELOW.

Structure When Crash Came-A Defective Support Holding
Cement Flooring Was Cause Of Trouble.

The new steel bridge on the good
roads, just completed by the coun-
ty at Thayer and which was only
opened for traffic yesterday, col
lapsed this morning at s o'clock,
three spans of II l-2 feet each, a
total of So IL feet, falling into the
creek bottom below. Fortunately
there was no one on the structure
at the time, although a wagon had
just passed over and many autos
had crossed, some of them weigh
ing as much as two or three tons.
The cause of the collapse was due
to defective angle bar, which had
rusted through and on account of
its being painted over was not de-
tected when the bridge was put to-
gether. The angle bars on the
bridge are Ia inch thick and / 1-2
inches wide and one only is used on
each side every II 1-2 feet to sup
port the entire weight of the heavy
cement flooring and gravel on top
of this flooring. When the bad bar
gave way and let the bridge sag at
that point the balance of the bars
for three spans snapped in two, and
went to the bottom.

NO NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN An
ONYMOUs LETTER-WRITER'S CASE

There have been no new develop
ments made public in the matter
OF the caaEges made to the govern
ment by A. Lenz against Mayor
Heuck and others for alleged abuse
of the Brookhaven postoffice laws
and regulations. Neither is there
anything new with reference to the
anonymous threatening letter re-
ceiyed by Lenz last Friday, which
intimated to the fullest extent that
unless he let co. on Heuck he
would be found at the terra firma
end of rope with the other end
attached to telephone pole, la
the way Eli Pigot went for a
heinous crime, years ago.
The Mayor is calmly discharging
bis customary duties and Lenz is as
serenely following his daily avoca-
tion at his restaurant and bakery.
Lenz has sent the threatening letter
to the head postal authorities at
Washington by registered mail and
it is the general belief that the
government will take immediate
cognizance of the serious violation
of the laws involved, by sending a
detective here, if one is not already
on the ground.

SURE TO Be A HANGING
IF 1T is THE RIGHT NEGRO

Following on the heels of num-
berless tips, letters and kilograms
since he escaped, Sheriff Montgom-
cry received another telegram Mon
day afternoon from the sheriff at
Jonesboro, La, saying: "Sure |
have your negro, Jacobs. Send
man to get him."
The Sheriff went himself yester-
day to see about the prospective
rope victim and if he should turn
out to be Jacobs, who murdered
negro in Forest. suburb of Brook
haven, all that is now necessary is
for Judge Miller to set a date for
the finality of his earthly career, as
the defendants case has already
been affirmed by the supreme
court. Jonesboro is an inland city
without railroads and no word has
been received from the sheriff since
he left.

GRAFT IN GOOD ROADS CONTRACT.
President Of Contracting Company
Charged With Giving $1OO
to Road Engineer.

Forest. Miss, Aug. ii. R.
Sutherlin, president of the Suther-
lin Construction Company, of Kan
sas City. Mo-, who has the contract
for building FIVE miles of the good
road now being constructed in Beat
/ of Scott county, was arrested here
this afternoon upon a charge of
paying the engineer w. 7. McKell,
$l00 as bribe. Mr.. McKelI al
leges that he was approached by
Mr.. Sutherlin and also by another
member of the company about two
months ago Immediately after the
contract was awarded and was
offered $3.50 per month and half of
whatever amount he might save
the company while the road was
ss1ss ba;.ss. 9a says they rer-
toned the matter to him several
times after this and that he finally
decided to show them up.
This afternoon, after notifying
several friends whom he posted and
asked to witness the transaction, he
told Mr.. Sutherlin to wrap the
money in small sheet of paper
and then roll it up in a newspaper
which he would hand to him as
they passed on the street. The
paper was handed to McKell in the
presence of several prominent citi-
zens and was opened Immediately
and found to contain $l00 in cur
rency.
Sutherlin was arrested at once
and placed under a $1,000 bond.

and asserts that it is a scheme

WILL TRY TO GET PLACE
BACK FOR SERGT. S. 7. BYRD

Friends of Stanley T. Byrd, the
sergeant at the Oakley hospital,
who was removed after an investi-
cation of the fire at the camp that
burned to death 35 convicts. may
prepare and circulate a petition
asking that he be retained in the
service of the penltentiary depart
ment and moved to some other
place.
In suggesting this the friends of
the sergeant maintain that he held
an enviable record for six and a
half years without making a slip"
and that he was no more RESPONSE
bic for the fire at Oakley than the
trustees who knew the conditions
of affairs at the hospital. They
point out that Mr.. Byrd was negli-
gent in that he was thoughtless in
allowing combustible materials to
be placed in the same building
where convicts occupied sleeping
quarters. In fact. they 60 further
and say that there was no place
where the hay. grain and moIasses
could be stored and no place where
the convicts could be taken after
their appeal to the officer to allow
them to leave an unsanitary and
overcrowded cage was granted.
Mr.. Byrd and his wife have no
desire to remain at the scene,
where they witnessed the horrify-
ing sight of men burning to death
on the night of July 81. but their
friends believe it but simple justice
that Mr.. Byrd should be taken care
of by DR.. Gathlngs at some other of
the convict farms. Jackson News.

Ornamentation and Convenience.

one by the Presbyterian Church.
The same kind of lights will proba-
bly, be installed in the railroad

early date. The ornamentation to
our city and the convenience afford
ed by this extra lighting cannot be
