inner court at the city hall. It was
heavily loaded. The top Of the wag-
on bed barely cleared. The wagon
was unloaded and the man tried to
drive out. The wagon bed would not

Oh, dear! Oh, d%ear-this hair OF minel
It's long and thick and curly.
And people seem to be possessed
To comb 1t late and early.
And, oh. my goodness. how 1t hurts!
That comb goes yanking through 1t,
And when ! Whimper mamma says:
"Why, child. I've got to do it!
"Your hairs all snarled and tangled up.
Stand still. you silly goosie!
Now. IL you jerk and whine like that
I'll have to spank you. Lucy!"
And that's the way it always goes.
My curls are such a bother
I wish my hair would go away
And leave me bald. like father.
I'd like a white and shiny head.
With here and there som stubble.
I'd throw that old comb half a mile
And stop this endless trouble.

The chief interest in "The Vampire
of the Desert" an unusually striking
photo-play produced by the Vitagraph
Company, lies in the lesson that it
teaches. The whole world, civilized
and uncivilized, is full Of vampirical
women, who lure and destroy, beguile
and damn everlastingly, using their
beauty and powers of fascination to
lead others on to ruin rather than to
the purity of true love. Most men,
whatever their life or convictions, ut
terly fail to resist the subtle influ-
ence, once it is felt. 1t comes upon
them like tremendous flood in which
their moral senses are completely
drowned. The play is picture of the
actual power of such a woman, show
ing her destructiveness and her meth.

During the afternoon five or six wit
nesses from the vicinity of the state
farm testified to having gone to Parch-
man on the request of a Clarksdale
lawyer to inspect the auto. These
were expert auto dealers and drivers
and they made careful examination
of the old machine. They all agreed
that 1t would not run and that it was
not worth more than $3.50 or 5000.
In fact, every one of these witnesses
declared the auto nothing more than
a lot of old junk and that all the re-
repairing in the world could not make
it worth anything"
At the conclusion of this expert tes-
timoHy as to the value of the machine
the state rested its case. George But
Ter, attorney for the defnse, then filed
a motion with the court suggesting
that a change of venue should have
been given as the case was not a
Kinds county case, the deal having
been made in another district.
He also moved the Court to, exclude
all the testimony and throw the case
out Of court. These motions were

CONVICT HURT
when TEAM RUNS

A team of mules hitched to wagon
owned by the county ran away near the
Meridian Fertilizer factory about nine
o'clock this morning and threw Jack
Rodgers, the driver, to the ground
infiicting numerous bruises and cuts
on his head and body. Rodgers was
thrown between the mules as the
wagon struck the railroad siding and
was dragged for some distance When
first seen after the accident it was
thought the man was killed. Dr. j. D.
Donald was summoned and the wound
ed man was taken to the South Mis-
sissippi Inflrmary, where his wounds
were attended to, the surgeon finding
it necessary to take number of
stitches.
Rodgers was serving a sentence on
the county farm, and as trustyhe had
been sent to town to get wagon load
of feed stuff for the teams on the coun-
ty roads.
Rodgers is the negro who sometime
ago gained considerable notoriety
when Governor Brewer pardoned him
while he was serving sentence for
unlawful retailing.

near ACCIDENT
To MAYFLOWER
SHELL FROM PROVING GROUND
STRUCK NEAR VESSEL WITH
PRESIDENT ABoRAD.
(By Associated PreSs.)

Washington, July S.-Officers of the
Presidential yacht Mayfiower are reti-
cent today concerning the near acct
dent to the yacht last week when a
shell from the Indian Head proving
grounds narrowly missed the vessel
while the President was aboard. 1t is
believed an investigation will follow.
So far as known the President made
no comment.
Reports received here last night say
the yacht Mayflower with President
Wilson on board came near being
struck by shell last Thursday while
proceeding up the Potomac to Wash
ington.
The shell from Pinch gun which
was being tested, is said to have fallen
800 feet from the Mayfower.
President Wilson is reported to
have been sitting aft with his physi-
clan, Dr. Grayson, when the shell fell.

before. Finally Holiday planned to
hold up the stage which passed Lake
Gogebic, learning that several Chicago
among them A. E. Fleischbien,
were to be on board. He stopped the
coach and demanded the money from
the bankers. Fleischbein reached his
hand into his pocket, but instead of
cash he pulled out revolver. Before
he could shoot the bandit had fred and
Fleischbein fell, MORALLY wounded. A
second man tried to resist, but Holzhay
shot him also, searched the men and
got away.
The authorities Of two states took
up the pursuit. Trains were watched
and stages guarded. But for a long
time Holzhay evaded his pursuers. He
slept in the woods. only going to the
villages for necessary food.
It was when he went to Republic
that the bandit was captured. Village
Marshall Glode recognized "Black
Bart" and, aided by several men, lured
Holzhay to an upstairs room. There all
bounced upon the bandit. It took three
men to bind the desperate after he had
made a fierce fight and attempted to
shoot his captors.
In his cell Holzhay was as fearless
as he was holding up train or a coach.
On>one occasion he stole table knife,
sharpened 1t on the floor of his cell,
and held one Of the guards at bay in
his cell when he came to take the
prisoner to work. Many other times
he gave the officials much trouble dur
ing the early years of his confinement.
Finally the physicians decided that he
was insane and he was sent to the
asylum at Ionia. There he was operat-
ed upon, and then returned to Mar
quette.
Since the operation Holzhay has
been different man. He has given
no trouble whatever, his demeanor has
been as gentle as that Of a child, and
all his time when not at work has been
devoted to reading. He is familiar
with the history and politics Of every
nation and has written many essays
on sociological and philosophical sub
poets. He invested the small earnings
he had saved in copper stocks and his
savings jumped to several thousands,
with the help of Warden Russell, who
placed his money for him. He is now
an expert in the doings Of the market
1t is believed he has saved enough
money to keep him the rest of his days.
He probably will go to live with rela-
| tives In Wisconsin.
