HE HIST WILL STEAL

Tom Clark, a white man, who is doubly a convict, having served two diff ferent terms in the Mississippi peniten- tiary for robbery, is in trouble again, this time at Shreveport, La., on the charge of having forged express money orders and pay certificates.

CANNON TO ROAR

Next Tuesday morning, June B. the citizens of Jackson will be aroused from their slumbers by the roar of a big can- non stationed in the old capitol yard. At the same time all bells and all steam whistles in the city will play an accom- paniment, so as to make all the noise possible and remind the young men of the city that St is time to register under the selective draft law. These noises will be repeated at regular intervals of every two hours during the day and until the registration booths shall have closed.

It is not believed there will be the slight est trouble in securing the number of able bodied negroes wanted from Misss- sppi. The trouble has been all along that everybody wanted to be an officer, and when the officers recruiting station was opened here for white men to go to Fort Logan H. Root, the recruiting of- ficers were simply swamped, as they were everywhere. and it became necessary to close the rolls.

 BY SWEDISH OFFICER
Flyer Constructed cf Steel and Woven Fabrics Which Has Powerful
 Climbing Ability

Stockholm. May 20.--A new type of air plane has been planned and constructed by an officer in the Swedish army, Lieu tenant Von Porat. It differs from ordi- nary types in that 1t is made entirely of steel and woven fabrics, with the excep- ton of the propeller. which is of wood. and in the arrangement of the wings The lower plane of the machine-which is scout biplane with some resemblance to the Fokker type-lies for three-quart- CTS Of its width back of the upper plane, instead of being directly under 1t, as in most machines
 The especial advantage claimed for thesl new airplane lies in its climbing ability, which is declared to be 3oe0 feet in fouri to five minutes. It's speed is 100 nilesv an hour The motor is of 100-horse power{

WOULD INCREASE RATES

The railroads doing business in Missis- sppi have appealed to the railroad com mission for permission to increase freight rates about 15 per cent on intrastate business, and they are cited to be in Jackson at the June 5th meeting, when their arguments will be heard, as will representatives of the commercial bodies who wish to oppose the increase. It may be that the railroads will get higher rates somehow, but permission to charge them will hardly come from the Mississippi railroad commission inst now
