LAING GETS INSTRUCTIONS
Farm Products Not Exempt From
Taxation. Tax on Dogs Repealed.
Can Be Returned as Property.

iii AbtH lOBNhSF'
Tax Receiver ]. D. LANG has re-
ceived from the office of the controll-
er general a letter of instructions lay
ing particular stress upon the sub
jects of general interest.
First That all dogs are to be re
turned for taxation at their fair mar
ket value.
Second. That farm products are
not exempt from taxation, but must
be returned along with all other
property.
An impression prevails throughout
the state that the last legislature took
the tax off of dogs and that a consti-
tutionaI amendment adopted in the
elections last fall exempts farm prod
ucta.
AS matter of fact, the law passed
by the legislature abolished the 81
per capita tax on dogs and provided
for the return of dogs at whatever
property value the owners may put
upon them. If a dog is returned as
property and is afterwards hurt or
killed the owner can recover dam
ages, but if it is not returned dam
ages cannot be recovered.
As to farm products, the constitu-
tional amendment adopted last year
simply empowers the Legislature, if it
deems wise, to exempt such property
from taxation. Before farm products
can escape the legislature must enact
a law specifically exempting them.

Is Estimate at $40, 900.

is EStundIc ut 'S%U.ObVs
SMITHVILLE, Ga.-As the resul,
of a disastrous fire, which originated
in the effort of a negro preacher to
demonstrate that a heated iron would
not explode a vessel Of gasoline,
twelve stores and shops We're de-
stroyed Saturday. with an estimated
loss of from SIS, 600 to 10000 prop
erty damage. No one was hurt eX-
cept a small boy, Douglas Turner,
who was burned on the leg.
Famed by a rather brisk wind the
fire. which originated in the pressing
club conducted in the rear of the
store of B. F. Christie, spread from
building to building, burning out
practically the section of the business
district north of the place where it
began. Tie fire started just before
noon and burned itself out about 4
o'clock in the afternoon.
With no facilities for fighting the
flames or of curbing them the citi-
zens of the town looked on helpless
while the fire spread from store to
store. As there is no water supply
available, except a small waterworks
system, which was insufficient to cope
with the flames after they got such a
quick start. fire departments from
nefghboring towns could offer no as
sistance.
Realizing their heInlessness under
the conditions many of the residents
of the town looked on in terror while
the ire spread. Breaking out as it did
about midway the principal business
street of Smithville it was fortu-
nate that the flames spread north
ward rather than southwark, as the
stores and shops in the northern sec
ton were far less valuable. If the
fire had once gotten started well
across the intervening street from
the store in that of J. A. Hill the en-
tire southern section of the business
district would have been swept away
also.
The fire is the most disastrous that
has ever happened in Smithville, and
only part of the loss is covered by in
surance probably not more than 80
Pa mt
An estimated list of the losses with
the names of those who suffered dam
age follows:
B. F. Christie, stock of merchan-
disc valued at $1,000; Ben Teasley,
stock of merchandise valued at ST.
500, also two store buildings S. T.
Wilkinson merchandise and meat
market, $500; J.. R. Edwards, meat,

chandise, $780, Mrs. S. E. Bass, mil

TO INVADE WILDERNESS.
Unique Motor Chapel Designed to Serve the Needs of Cath
olics Who Are Scattered About in Remote Places

The motor-propelied church is the
latest and most improved mode of
carrying religion into the wilderness.
The first motor chapel ever built
in this country will soon enter into
duty for the Catholic Church Extern
sion Society to supplement the mis-
sionary tasks now being performed
by railroad chapels.
The members OF churches are too
widely scattered on ranches and in
settlements to attend a regular
church. 1t will penetrate regions
where railroads do not at present en-
ter Starting from Brownville, Tex,
the chapel will work its way along
Rio Grande river westward through
the state. 1t will be in charge of two
priests and will carry all the relig-
ious equipment commonly found in
church.
The car is known as the Motor
Chapel st. Peter and was presented
10 the Extension Society by mem
Der of western branch of the Wo-
mans Auxiliary. 1t was constructed
on a standard chassis of two tons ca
pacity. In addition to the other
equipment a 2Ox50 feet gable roof
khaki tent with 7 p feet walls will
be carried on top of the car. 1t will
be erected and stretched over the
whole car when shelter from rain
or protection against the heat of the
sun is required, so that services will
be possible.
In All Kinds of Weather.
According to the plans announced
the car will remain at each stopping
place for two weeks, during which
time daily services and worship will
be held for all Catholic people in the
territory To assist the priests ster-
eopticon lectures on the doctrines
of the church will be given, the pow
er for the lantern being supplied by
an electric lighting system with
which the car Is provided. Inc equip
ment of the car includes all the usual
church paraphernalia and essentials
for carrying out the rites of the
church in regular form and with ap-
propriate solemnity.

"OTHELLO" PRESENTED
BY A GREAT COMP ANY
ONE OF GREATEST SHAKE
SPEAREAN COMPANIES IN
CONWAY LAST NIGHT.

From Fridays Daily.
The MacLean-H anford Company
played the great Shakespearean trag-
edy, "Othello," at the Grand theater
last night. The four star actors,
MacLean as "Othello," Hanford as
'Iago." Miss Odette Tyler as 'Desde-
mona," and Miss Marie Drofnah as
Emilia, were each perfect in their
chosen role, and they were ably sup
ported by cast of the best actors.
The performance throughout was
strictly high-class and up to the
standard of anything put on the
boards at Little Rock or any other
city of that size 1t is to be regretted
that the people of Conway, which is
supposed to be the athens of Ar
kansas, showed so little appreciation
of high-class drama, that this
company should have
played here to a losing house. 1t is
certainly reflection on the good taste
of her citizens, that they will pack
the house to see a play like BILLY the
Kid and miss treat like "Othello.'
