IN BLACK CREEK AS LONG
AS PATIENCE LASTS.

The lid has not been put on hunt
ing and fishing in Lamar county.
This declaration will be received
with interest by Hattiesburg fisher
men and huntsmen who have been
laboring under the idea recently that
the board Of supervisors of Lamar
had issued orders stopping gaming
in that county for a period of five
years. AS the Black Creek fishing
holes are the best in this section, the
rumor caused CONSERVATION among
sportsmen of this city
But the following dispatch from
The News correspondent at Purvis
this afternoon, sets the rumors to
rest:
From inquiry of r. L. McNair, Chan
Gerry Clerk of Lamar County and Clerk
of the Board of Supervisors, ex-officio,
It is learned that two years ago the
board of supervisors authorized, infor-
mally, the statement that Lamar coun-
ty was then travelling under the code
provisions relative to hunting and fish
ing, and that there have been no or
ders Of any kind passed by the board
Of this county since that delivery. The
report that at the recent meeting of
the board of supervisors of this coun-
ty five year limitation was put upon
fishing and hunting in Lamar county
lis erroneous.

Laurel, Miss, May 12.--On the heels
of the announcement that the big
lumber mills of this section have de-
cided to reduce their working days to
five each week, today came strike
of the employees of the Laurel Cotton
Mills, which plant was closed down
shortly after 10 o'clock this morning.
The employees claim that lack Of
ventilation was the cause of the strike.
The employers have nothing to say
other than that they are glad the
mills have closed, as they have been
operated at almost a loss for some
| time, any way.
According to the spokesman Of the
strikers, one of the girl employees went
to the foreman Yesterday and asked
him to open the windows in the plant.
"Its so hot in here" she is
quoted as having said, shat if more
air is not let in, III faint, unless
go on the outside"
The foreman is said to have declined
to open the windows further, saying
that it was necessary to have high
Temperature in weaving and spinning
plants.
/ Representative Of the employees
called on the factory officials this
morning and asked that the windows
be opened, and on being told that sucf
would be impossible. a walkout fol
llowed.
The manufacturers stated that thu
windows are opened eight inches from
the bottom. The rooms are kept mois
by system of humidors, which damp
len the products. To further open th,
windows would be impossible, they eS
Iplained.
All the strikers are spinners AM
weayers.
