More Fading' Done
by Clubs of Police
Than With Bones
BLUECOATS STEP IN JUST AS
CHAPPIE is PREPARING TO
"MOP UP"

It's just like a couple Of blue coats
to step in TO crap game just when
a fellow has faded and is about TO
rake in all the coin, and bust up the
whole party.
That's the reasoning of one Chap
pie Pickens welLknown bootblack in
a Main street barbershop, who, with
five other negro youths, was run in
by Sergeant Beverly and Policeman
protein Rawls, in a Mobile street bar
bershop yesterday at noon.
Chappie's luck had been against him
.all morning. 1t seemed that every
time he picked up the 'bones" they
turned "seben." When noon came,
and the crowd began talking about
adjourning, Chappie was down to his
last jit
One moh round" Chappie pleaGing-
ly asked, and his companions, want
ing to give him somekind of a run for
his money, agreed
In about two minutes, all the money
was on the floor, and Chappie had the
bones" He had to turn five. So
confident Of victory was he THAI he
put up his pocket knife, a slightly
worn card case, a blood-red tie, and
several other articles of adOrnment
on the side. He rolled the dice, and
the crowd looked on breathlessly.
Five it am" shouted Chappie at
the top of his voice, and as he did so
a side door crashed through and a
couple of policemen were standing
over the improvised gaming table.
Every cent of the money-76 cents
in all-and the bones" were c0nfis-
Gated, and the half dozen negroes car
ried TO city hall, and released on
bond
In police court this morning, Mayor
Batson fined each s. and costs. They
were Ned Williams, Walter Gale, Chap
pie Pickens, Wash. Mcleod, Tillman
Beard and Seaborn Tisdale.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 6. - Con
gress is in session again after a nine
months recess. Both houses re-as-
sembled today, rarking the beginning
of the SiXty-fourth Congress.
Much important business faces the
members. Since the gavels last fell in
the two houses, many momentous,
questions have arisen. Overshadow-
ing all others are those caused by the
European war, but they do not COM
pose the entire program. In addition
ito the questions of national defense
and revenues. which fell naturally un-
der the general head Of preparedness

attention Many Investigations, cen
tering mainly about war problems are
to be inaugurated, and an interesting
fight will ensure in the Senate over a
proposed cloture rule.
The first business before the House
today was the election of a Speaker

body to order. Members then pro
ceeded to the election of the Speaker
The Democratic majority made the re-
election of Champ Clark, of Missouri,
a foregone conclusion. Representa-

candidate, was the choice Of the Re-
publicans for their leader.
Two hundred and twentynine Dem

ent compose the new house. The doz-
en- or more Republicans of the 'old
guard" who went down in defeat three
years ago only to be returned to the
lower house over Democratic oppon-
ents last fall, formed an interesting
group. Joseph G. Cannon, former
Speaker OF the House, and now well
on toward so years of age, stood
out prominently. If he finishes his

Washington, D. c., Dec. Ga pre-
lninary statement of the general re-
sults of the census of manufactures
for the city Of Hattiesbure Miss, has
been issued by Director Sam. l.. Rog-
ers, of the Bureau of the Census, De
partment of Commerce. 1t consists
of a summary comparing the figures
for 1909 and 1914, by totals, prepared
under the direction of William M.
Steuart. chief statistician for manu-
features.
The figures are preliminary and
subject to such change and correction
as may be found necessary from a fur
ther examination of the original res
ports.
The census excluded the hand
trades, the building trades, and the
neighborhood industries. and took
account only of establishments con-
Quoted under the factory system.
Statistics were not collected for es-
tablishments having products for the
census year valued at less than $500,
except that reports were taken for es-
adjustments idle during portion OF
the census year, or which began op-
GRAFTON during that year. and whose
products for such reason were valued
at less than $500
The word establishment" as used
in the census report may mean more
than one mill or plant. provided they
are owned or controlled and operated
by single individual, partnership,
corporation, or other owner or opera
tor, and are located in the same town
or city
The reports were taken for the cal
endar year ending December 81, 1914,
wherever he system of bookkeeping
permitted figures for that period to be
secured. but when the fiscal year OF
an establishment differed from the
calendar year a report was obtained
for the operations of that establish
ment for its fiscal year falling most
largely within the calendar year. 1914.
Summary of the Statistics.
The population of Hattiesburg at
the census of 1910 was 11,733, and it
is estimated that it was 1882 on July
!. 1914.
There were 80 establishments re-
ported as located within the corporate
limits of the city during 1914.
The capital invested. as reported in
1914, was $1,67S,000. In this connec-
ton it should be stated that the in
quiry contained in the census sched-
ule calls for the total amount of cap
ital, both owned and borrowed, invest
ed in the business, but excludes the
value of rented property, plant, or
equipment which was employed in the
conduct of manufacturing enterprises.
In the final bulletins and reports the
rental paid for such property will be
shown separately.
The cost of materials used in 1914
was S666.000 In addition to the CON-
ponent materials which enter into the
products of the establishment for the
census year there are included the
cost of fuel, mill supplies and rent of
