Negro Man Found Dead.

Fuller johnson, a negro, was found
dead last Sunday on the Johnston place
eight miles southeast of Colfax, and on
examination it was found that ne was
shot in the face with buckshot. Fur
Their examination by the coroner also
showed that one load of shot broke his
arm, another entered his left side and
one load entered his chest and stomach.
When he was found johnson had a
Winchester rifle gripped in his right
hand with his finger on the trigger and
on. cartridge had been discharged.
Sheriff Clinton and Coroner Black
wood investigated the matter, and
found that johnson had been shot on
Saturday night some distance from
where he was found. A trail of blood
led from his body to tree where four
empty shells were found. Some ne
groes living near by testified that they
heard five shots fired about s o'clock
Saturday night, but thought nothing of
them until Jonnson's body was found
the following day. failing to secure
any evidence the coroner's jury report
ed that he met his death at the hands
of unknown persons.

Rural Carrier Examination.

The United States Civil Service
Commission has announced an
examination for the parish of
Grant, La. to be held at Winn-
field and Alexandria on August
IL, 1916, to fill the position of
rural carrier at Dry Prong and
vacancies that may occur on ru-
raj routes from other postoffices
in Grant parish. The examina-
tion will be open to male citizens
who are actually domiciled in the
territory of a postoffice in the
parish and who meet the other
requirements set forth in Form
No. 1877. This form and appli-
cation blanks may be obtained
from the Offices mentioned above
or from the United States Civil
Service Commission at Washing
ton, d. c. Applications should
be forwarded to the Commission

practicable date.

School District Taxes to be AppOrtion-
ed as Heretofore.

Since the elections were order
ed in the several school districts
of the parish, inquiry has been
made as to whether the taxes to
be voted will, be- used for the in
dividual districts or not. The
taxes will most certainly be ap-
piled to the original districts.
When the districts were grouped
an ordinance was adopted specifi-
cally stating: That all funds
derived from special school tax
elections which may hereafter
be held and ordered in the said
grouped district shall be appor-
toned therein according to the
assessments of the original terri
torial subdivisions to such origi-
nal subdivision for use in the
original subdivision" The ordi-
nances containing this stipula-
ton will be found in the school
board proceedings Immediately
preceding the resolutions calling
the elections in each grouped dis
trict. The grouping of the dis
tricts was for the purpose of
saving the expense of an election
for each individual district, and
the tax, if voted, will be appor-
toned as though the elections
were held separately in each dis
trict.

Have You a Ladder?

If your home should catch fire
to-day, or worse, tonight, have
you a ladder handy to get on the
roof? Many of the fires in the
country start from sparks setting
fire to the roof; a bucket or two
of water would extinguish the
blaze and prevent the destruc-
ton of the house, but how to get
on the roof is often no trifling
matter. Every one owning a
home should have a good ladder
and keep it in a convenient place
for use in case of fire.

which the l.. R. & N. Company

the railroads of the country to

to Winfield, was mailed from
Washington to New Orleans, and
1t is SAID the pOSt0fflce Depart

the railroad for four years on
the terms it has been demand
ing. The controversy over the
mail pay was taken up with the
Louisiana delegation in Congress
and had the backing of the board
of trade. The latter body urged
a settlement of it on the ground
that it threatened to prevent the
Edenborn line from carrying the
mails over their right Of way.
Merchants on the line appealed
also for protection, as they did
not want to be deprived of the
service.
