Seals are still numerous and are dig
liked by Labrador fishermen, DR..
Grenfell says that he has known a
seal to haunt a net SO persistently
that to get any fish the owner had to
watch all the while at n end Of it,
and even then the seal would almost
snap off the fisherman's hand as he
raced to be first to disentangle the

CATHERINE WINTERS
LOST one YEAR Ago

Newcastle, Ind, March .7.-On the
twentieth day of this month one year
will have rolled around since little
Catherine Winters disappeared from
her home in this city, leaving not the
slightest clue to her whereabouts. And
although photographs of the missing
child have been sent to practically
every city of America and have ap-
peared in newspapers and moving pic
ture screens from one end of the land
to the other, her disappearance is
the mystery it was on the day her dis
tracted parents began the search.
Catherine Winters was nine years
old at the time of her disappearance
and was declared by all who knew her
to be an unusually intelligent
child of her years. She was the daugh'
ter of DR.. and Mrs. w. A. Winters
well known and respected residents
of Newcastle. The child was last seen
in the vicinity of her home at about
noon on March 20, 1913. At that time
she dropped out of sight as mysterious
ly as if the earth had opened up anc
swallowed her.

LOCAL INSTITUTION NOW HAS DE-
POSTS OF PRACTICALLY TWO
MILLION DOLLARS.

Persuant to the call of the Comp
troller of the Currency, the First-Na-
tional Bank of Commerce of this city
.oday publishes sworn statement of
condition at close of business March
4, which reveals marked degree Of
strength and gives unmistakable evi-
dence of the continued growth in pub
lie favor of this, one of the leading
banks of the state.
The item Of $1,95o,752.S5 due depos-
itors, shows the largest deposits ever
included in any published statement
of the bank, and aside from giving
evidence of continued pubic confidence
in the bank, should crafty every citi
zen, because of the evidence 1t gives
of the constant growth of the liquid
funds of the people.
With cash resources of nearly a hal
million dollars the bank shows a re
serve far in excess of the Requirement
! of law and therby evidences a spiri
| of conservatism, which is the bed rocl
of sound banking.
The history of the First-Nationa
Bank of Commerce is practically tn

growth of the place from mere vi
lage in 1895 to a most cosmopolita
progressive city in 1914, this ban
has grown from a small county ban

Taylorsville, Miss, March 7.-Dave
Ingram, a negro bootlegger here, has
the distinction of being the only man
in town with the record of having
been arrested, then having arrested
the officer who arrested him, and
finally being lodged in jail.
Dave was known to have sold whis-
ly and the warrant for his arrest was
given to Constable Arthur Edwards,
of Summerland. When Edwards
found him the negro insisted that he
be not handcuffed and promised to go
along peaceably, but when Edwards
started to unhitch his horse, the negro
gripped his back, took his gun away
from him, rifled his pockets, and then
told him to be off. AS Edwards was
riding away, Ingram fired four shots,
one of which sent bullet through the
constables thigh and the other
through the horses mouth.
Blood hounds were put on the trail
and when Dave heard the dogs he
surrendered to his employer, who
turned him over to the officers. He
plead guilty to bootlegging and was
given sixty days and 500. He plead
not guilty to the two other charge ant
is held on s2,5O0 bond.

Mississippi farm. They are going
back for their families and will return
within a few weeks to operate their
newly acquired properties.
The total amount of cut-over land
sold yesteld day was 1,240 acres. The
size of the farms sold ranged from
40 to 1G0 acres. Two men bought 100
acres each; six bought so acres ana
elevent bought 40 acres. Estimating
that there are three children in each
family, it means that the population
of South Mississippi was increased by
ninety five settlers.
This news story is different from
most news stories, because there is
nothing unusual about it. Indeed. its
real value lies in the fact that 1t hap
pens every two weeks, for the nine
teen farmers who purchased Land near
S,.lnrall today and Friday constitute
Just one carload of the settlers that
Z. A. Cummins G. Co. of Chicago are
bringing into this country, and that
company brings down a carload every
two weeks. 1t is easy mathematics to
figure out what that means to the
agricultural development of the Piney
Woods.
There seemed to be no trouble in
./.,eiling the farms. The Cummins rep
preventative, w. l.. Twining, simply
loaded the immigrants in hacks, had
them shown over the country, had the
cualities of the soil and climate and
crops explained to them, and then
waited for them to return. When
they returned he asked if they had

Experienced Farmers.
There's a reason-indeed, there are
several reasons. In the first place
these nineteen men are experienced
farmers. They know good farm land
when they see it, and when they
looked at the land around Sumrall
they knew they had found what they
wanted.
In the second place, the price was
right. Most Of them had come from
She fertile plains of Illinois and Ohio
where the price of good land is toe
high for any of them to own enough
to make a living on. They bough
their choice OF several hundred thou
sand acres yesterday, and they pait
