March 18th.
"The Roundup Is the greatest

and scene Ia the piece breathes the
life OF the great Southwest. It is so
realistic in its aspect that the audi,
ences who witness 1t forgets, for tho
time being, that 1t is in a theatre, and
becomes translated TO the locale OF
the story and. in its intense interest,
actually participates in exciting hap.

interest displayed by every audience
is the most flattcring endorsement

they succeeded in this a fight must
occur between the rescue party and

sending up the spray. On came the
Indians, padding carefully, but rapid.

knew that unless his friends were pret.

he saw a man in the bow Of one Of
the canoes raise a spohr and aim II
at the girl. While It was coming from

another spear and was about to hurl
it when there was a report, and tho
spearman dropped. He had been shot
from the ships boat.

on killing both iisf daughter and the
man who was cayryipGi her away from

only few days remain before the
final inspection will be made and in
this time it is hoped that all trash,
debris, and tin cans will be removed.
Although Natchez is in the front
rank, other cities are striving hard to
carry off the honor of being the clean
est town.
Biloxi and Laurel are very active
but very little interest has been man
ifested at Jackson, Vicksburg or Me-

Following the inspection made by
police officers as to sanitary condl-
tons, a number of notices have been
served upon property owners order
ing that nuisances be abated."
