FIRM COMPANY CUT
LUMBER FOR LONO

AS nearly as any building very wei
can be, The Lomo is South Missis
sippi building. Being built primaril,
of brick and reinforced concrete, there
is not = great deal of lumber abou
1t, but what lumber there is had tt
be carefully sawed and dressed and
1t was done in Hattiesburg.
The Firm Lumber company, whose
big planning mill is right in the heart
OF the city. furnished the lumber for
The Lomo. The company is one OF
the youngest but largest institutions
in the city and has connected with it
many of the most prominent men in
local financial circles.
1t was organized in 1911, with a
capital stock of 100000, being the
consolidation of the Hattiesburg Coal
and Ice Co. and the Rich Lumber and
Manufacturing Co. d. Emmett McIn-
Inis is president of the company, C.
2. Stevens is vice-president and Earl
B. King is secretary and treasurer.
Three three, together with George
Komp, w G. Gillespie, w. A. Brown,
Of Carrollton, H., and c. e. Neeley,
Of st. Louis, form the directorate.
The Firm Lumber Compapy's name
would indicate that 1t is exclusively
lumber concern, but as a matter of
fact its ice and coal departments are
equally as important as its lumber de-
partment.
The company's ice plants have a
daily capacity of ninety tons and
numerous wagons radiate all over
Hattiesburg to provide the public with |
morning deliveries.
The company also handles each year
large coal business, frequently re-
ceiving several car loads day from
the mines.
The largest volume of their business,
however. is in the lumber department,
and they conduct this department on
an entirely different basis from most
of the other South Mississippi mills.
They buy from the smaller mills near
and manufacture the lum.
ber; then, instead of selling exclusive
ly to wholesalers, they sell a large
of their output to retail {
ers and to railroad and car manufac.
Lurers. They specialize in railroad [
and car material and also do a con- i
siderable business in custom dressing.
Their planning mill has capacity of |
rom $4,000 to 100000 feet per day. t

er of this district. Tuesday evening.
while returning from the field-a dog
which accompanied Kidder-appear-

a big rattlesnake. He attacked the
reptile with pitchfork and killed it,
Looking around he discovered, much
to his surprise, that he was in the

that there were seven full grown rat
tiers and forty-three young ones in

The sensation of the week has
been the escape from the Jail Friday
night of the two fellows, Mcdonald
and McCarty, who were awaiting
trial for stealing several hundred
dollars worth of fur goods from a
travelling mans trunk at the depot six
weeks ago. They were locked in the
cell cage as usual last Friday eve
ming, the lock on the door being a
paddock out of reach of anyone con-
fined inside. How they managed to
open it is deep mystery. About mid
night Saturday Deputy H. A. Hewitt
was on his way down Village Creek
and at the Holmes place two miles
this side of Lansing, he suddenly
came plump onto the migrating fell
lows. McCarty stopped at command
but Mcdonald, the one wanted the
most, scurried into the brush and es-
capped and thus far has evaded cap
ture. He is supposed to be hiding
among the bluffs below Lansing, but
as his actions while in custody stamp
him as foxy chap, it is doubtful if
he is again STANDARDIZATION Demo-

RINGING BROS. CIRCUS.
Boys Made Their Debut in McGregor
Forty Years Ago.

McGregor, Ia, Sept. 13.-When thu
Especial train took aboard a crowd O
people at McGregor Sept. 3, bound
| for Ringling's circus at Postville
there were among the number those
who had seen the Ringlings give their
llrst show forty years ago. Though il
lis generally supposed that the Ring.
ling circus started at Baraboo, Wis,
where the company now makes its
winter headquarters, McGregor was
in reality the early home of the Ring
lings and their first show was given
there. 1t was about the smallest
show that ever exhibited under can
vas.
The elder Ringing in early days
was in the harness business in Nc
Gregor. AS his boys grew up they
helped their father in the shop. The
old residents remember them as
quiet young fellows whom no one ex-
pected would ever do anything big in
the world. AS boys, though, they
were in the habit of giving circuses
in their back yard Saturday after
moons. These were considered by the
neighborhood boys and girls a little
more alluring and exciting than any
other back yard shows.
1t was while they were employed
in the harness shop at McGregor that
the brothers made the decision to
launch forth in the circus business III
earnest and so it happened that they
gave their first show in the home
town. One of the old-timers gives the
following account of it:
ION a vacant lot in the rear of a
drug store they pitched their tent. 1t
was fully thirty-five feet in diameter
and was held in place by ropes con-
tributed from the clotheslines in
the neighbors' back yards. l know
this to be fact because l got into
the show on pass for contributing
one of tie clotheslines. There were
three performers. Two were on the
parallel bars, but Al Ringing was
the star. He balanced on his chin n
pillow which had been borrowed for
