NUMBER 9
BLACK LEG.
Has Made its Appearance in Madison
County.

1t has come to the Herald Office
from source which is thoroughly re-
liable that disease known as black
leg has broken out in a herd of cattle
which belongs to Mr.. Hemphill. who
lives between Camden and Pickens.
when the first COW died Mr.. Hemphill
did not think much about it and had
II hauled off without using any pre-
cautions, but in a day or two. two
more were affected, and then he sent
for the county veterinarian, who pro-
nounced it black leg.
This has caused great uueasiness
among the cattle men and they Rre
having their cattle inoculated, and il
is so close to Yazoo ii would be well
for our people, and especially those
who live in the eastern part Of the
county, 20 keep watch over their
herds. N that section of the county
there are some fine cattle as could be
raised in any State, End should this
disease make It's way into this county,
il would entail loss and hardship
on our people that would be worse
than the boil weevil.

DEPLoRABLE ACCIDENT.
Two Yazoo Young Ladies in Auto Ae-
cident Near West Point

Misses Marjorie and Ruth Bardwe!l
have been visiting relatives and
friends at Starkville for several days.
On last Friday afternoon they joined
a party of young folks in pleasant
spin to West Point in a new touring
car. Mr.. ice Rice was driving it and
the car belonged to his father. Every
thing went lovely, and the young peo-
pie were in the height Of their joy,
until on the return journey. About
two miles from West Point a
out suddenly occurred. The Oept
man lost control Of the machine ana
it ran into q rut and overturned.
Miss Pope, member of the party and
relative of Mr.. Rice, was sitting on
the front seat. and was terribly lacer-
ated by the broken glass from the
wind shield, and was also crushed by
the weigh of TIE overturned car, and
died within short tire. Mr.. Rice's
shoulder was broken, and his sister
Miss Harriet, was painfully hurt. In
\ some unaccountable manner the two
Rardwell ladies escaped any serious
injury. but the shocl, they received
will long be remembered.
Mr.. Rice is overcome with grief at
the terrible fate of his friend and
gray, fears are apprehended for his
condition.
A farmer heard the noise and went
70 their assistance Immediately, and
soon had three physicians in attend
ance, but Miss Pope was so seriously
hurt that she died in few minutes
Her mother and sister arrived just
in time to see her breathe for the last
time
Miss Pope is kindly and lovingl!
remembered by the many friends
which she made while on visit tt
:. Miss Marjorie Bardwell, and her un
mely and tragic death will bring
ang of sorrow to their hearts. l
was certainly a sad and tragic endint
y TO what had promised to be one o
the most pleasant afternoons of thei
lives. and as time rolls by the horro
of it will be mellowed but never for
gotten by all concerned.
Mrand mrs BsrdweH are greati'
distressed over the affair, for the
ie.re very much attached to Mis-
Pone and while their sympathy
with all who were hurt, but the
feel quite thankful that their daugh
ters escaped harm.

which will be held in jackson In 0c-
tober. 1t was not known just what
could be expected of Yazoo City for
the fair and the meeting decided that
if the Yazoo Commercial Club could
not meet with the requirements Of
the Association, the fair would be held
at the Agricultural High School in
Benton. OF course Yazoo City will
come forward with the necessary
space and accommodation for the ex-
hibition of the prize cattle of the coun-
ty. 1t is expected that there will be
about $50 fine cattle shown at this
fair and Yazoo City could not afford
to let them go elsewhere. Mr.. Sum-
merfeld as president of the Yazoo
City Retail Dealers Association, and
Mr.. Douthat for the Yazoo CONNER
cial Club, assured the meeting that
Yazoo City would do all that was nee

VIII Have no More of Levee Board.
Mr.. John Lear has resigned as a
member of the Levee Board. This ac-
ton was taken because Mr.. Lear is
president of the Delta Bank & Trust
Co., of this city, and as that bank
has been made one Of the depositaries
for the funds of the Lcvee Board, and
it would have been unlawful for him
to serve on the board while the money
was on deposit in his bank.
Mr.. Lear has also rendered his
resignation to Governor Brewer of the
position recently rendered him as onc
of the Election Commissioners Of
Yazoo county. This was also don'
because of the demands on his time ai
president of the bank. He recon-
mended that Mr.. 0. w. Baldwin be ap-
pointed one of the election commits
sioners in his stead, and if the State
Board should see fit to appoint Mr.
Baldwin, he will faithfully serve the
county in that capacity.
