ANTI.IICk Law
), CARRIED BY VOTE
= OF 5l5 TO $50
TWO BOXES YET TO BE HEARD
FROM WILL INCREASE LEAD
FOR COMPULSORY DIPPING.
MAIN OPPOSITION WAS
IN NORTHERN PORTION
Cattle Raising Section IN Southern Per.
tion Of County Went In Favor Of New
Law by Large Majority-Petai and
Harvey Vote Heavily Opposed To II.

Forrest county, by an overwhelming
majority, yesterday determined to
make the dipping of cattle compulsory.
The vote stood 51S for and $50 against.
with one small box not heard from.
Three beats out of five were carried
by the proponents Of compulsory dip
ping and by precincts the two sides
were about equally divided.
1t is significant that the country dis.
Atricts south Of Hattiesl urg, which is
1.-The cattle raising part of the county,
voted for dipping by large majority.
The vote at Brooklyn, where the Agri.
cultural High School Is located was 20
to 2 in favor of the law. The opposition
to dipping came from the northern part
of the county lying adjacent to Jones.
Jones county people who are opposed
to dipping used their influence against
the measure in that part of Forrest
county At Rawls Springs the vote
was solid against the measure but one
of the largest cattle raisers in that
vicinity, who has his own dipping vat
did not vote yesterday.
Petal and Harvey Oppose.
1t was a surprise to many that sew
eral precincts in the immediate vicin-
ity of Hattiesburg, including Petal
and Harvey, voted against the measure.
The two beats which meet in the city,
however, more than counterbalanced
this opposition vote.
G. w. Hoffman, sheriff Of Lamar
county, who was in the city today, said
It is not surprising that that portion
of Forrest county which borders on his
county where they have compulsory
dipping went for the measure, because
for long while the Forrest county
farmers have been driving their stock
over into Lamar county in order to
get the benefit Of their dipping vats.
The people in Lamar county, he says,
are much pleased with their vats and
have spread the news abroad about the
value of dipping. He says he knows
that the farmers at Helena and along
Black Creek will welcome the new
measure and will cooperate with the
supervisors in making dipping a sue
cess.
DR.. Paul Vaughn, government expert
from the Department of Agriculture,
who is cooperating with the county
supervisors in Mississippi in establish
ing the vats, was in the city last night
and was much interested in the out
come of the election. The government,
he says, has several experts in the
state waiting on the outcome OF the

an official report on the condition. He,
said today that he had never reported
1t before because he knew the city's
finances are in such a condition that
the commissioners could do nothing
about it and he thought it better to try
to bring about a remedy in other ways.
]. sH Putnam, city engineer, also
was at the meeting. He advised the
commissioners that when the sewer is
built it should not be constructed to
connect with the Fourth street sewer,
as had been suggested. but should con-
meet with the Hardy street sewer, as
the town is growing that way and it
was the logical connection for other
reasons.
Sewer Is Only Solution.
1t was learned, further, that all who
attended the meeting agreed that the
only permanent solution of the prob
lem was a sewer; that neither septic
tank nor any other arrangement that
might be resorted to temporarily will
bring about permanent relief from the
condition of open drainage as it exists
today.
Immediately following this morn
ing's meeting, Health Officer Donald
and President Cook together went to
the Normal College and inspected the
conditions. They found, according to
Dr. Donald, that in ordinarily dry
weather the overflow from the tank
does not reach the creek, but is carried
by means of the ditch to a low, fiat
place between the tank and the creek,
where it evaporates. This branch,
however, flows through the open range
and cows drink it. In wet weather, it
does not dry up but is carried on to
Gordon's Creek and through the city.
No Mosquitoes Present.
DR.. Donald will also report to the
commissioners this afternoon that he
found evidences that considerable oil
has been poured on the branch and
that no mosquitoes are in evidence at
present.
The attitude of the commissioners
evidently is one of determination that
must be done. 1t is not
their idea at this afternoons meeting
to determine on any permanent pro-
ject, but it is their plan to remedy the
situation temporarily and then to go
into thorough investigation of the
matter and it is expected that after
the meeting this afternoon they will
make public statement setting forth
in part. at least what they have found
to be the condition and their ideas as
to what should be done to give perma-
nent relief.

EARRINGS at Fire-Chief Fancher
starts to strip OFF Ills Buttons.

New Haven-William E. Bucking-

40 AS house, on Highland street,
had his buttons stripped from him
after he had been arrested on q
charge Of stealing pair OF diamond
earrings from the home of Isaac Koch
et OF Gamer street, during or after

FIRE during which Miss Anna McCue
was forced to jump from a third
story window to save her life. Buck
ingbam. who has been in the depart
ment for ten years, was then sent to
the Grand avenue station where he
was allowed to remain in the ante
room for two hours, when Peter ].
NcNerney, put In an appearance and
gave bonds in the sum of $1,000 for
his appearance in the city court.
This is the first case where a men,
her of the New Haven fire department
has been accused of stealing at a fire
and the arrest was the talk of the
department. When he was charged
with the theft Buckingham denied it,
but later when the detectives had in
dueed his wife to get the diamond
at his home at 230 Division street.
BY the ruse of telling her that her
husband had confessed, he admitted
the theft, 1t is said, and was imme-
diately placed under arrest.
Immediately Chief Fancher step
PED 10 where Buckingham was stand
Ing and taking hold of the freman's
coat began to take off the buttons
which are fastened on the inside with
little hooks. He had removed two
or three when Buckingham himself
removed the rest of them. The idea
was that he should not be locked up
when he had the insignia of the de-
partment on him. He was then
formally placed under arrest.
While he was awaiting a bonds
man his wife came TO the station
with a travelling bag and into these
Buckingham put his buttons and his
badge and his cap. Then he went
inside and changed his firemens
clothes for civilian garb and went
away with his wife and his bondsman.

ARE DISCOVERING THE
WONDERS OF SOUTHWEST
James A. Harris Jr., Gives Graphic
Description of Automobile Trip
Over Northern Route in
Washington, d. c. Star

Strangest of all Indian peoples
living practically the same as their
tribal ancestors lived before the
Mexican exploration, the Pueblos
of northern New Mexico and the
Navajos and Moquis of Arizona,
with their weird and wonderful
communal houses built in wild
erness of ruins of a prehistoric
civilization furnish scenes of grip
ping, stirring interest to the tour
ist who explores this mystic region
in motor car.
Here are tribes who are civili-
zation proof. Here are ruins OF
Spanish missions and villages
built as long ago as the Mexican
conquest. Here is the stamping
ground of the famous frontiersman
Kit Carson, and the scene OF in
Vulnerable invasions, conquests,
rebellions and Indian uprisings.
The canyon walls that were once
the haunts of the cliff dwellers,
the awe-ins spring depths and
grandeur of the Grand Canyon of
the Colorado, the lava beds of ex-
tinct volcanoes, the Painted Des-
ert and the Petrihed forest are all
accessible to the motor tourist.
He may leave his car and eX-
plore the cells and passageways
through solid rock, wrought by a
race whose existence can only be
computed in units of thousand
years. Or, he may drive to the
very edge of abysmal chasms and
gasp with amazement. Such was
the experience of a party OF motor
lists who set out to prove or dis
prove the recurring rumors of a
race still faithful to the customs
and mysterious legends of medie-
val times and region of prehis-
toric ruins and natural wonders.
After describing the trip over
the historic old Santa Fe trail Mr..
Harris says:
From Springerville they turned
north with the Little Colorado
river toward Holbrook. A few
miles east OF Holbrook they en-
tered the Petrifed Forest National
Monument, strange formation
covering many acres, with giant
petrihed trees living, half covered
with sand, in utmost confusion.
