rue mere announcement OF the arrest
anu q what the spy carried was made
SUI, the arrest Of that spy marked a
real epoch in the history OF United
states secret service efficiency
In the first place, the arrest Of the
spy ald cOnnscati0n Of his precious
papers and code revealed that the ac-
tivlty Of The United States Secret Serv-
Ice has been so great and efficient that
the backbone OF the kaiser's marvellous
spy orsanization in the country has
been effectively broken
10 revealed. also. that the service the
kaiser recently has been receiving from
his spy system has been seriously, pos
sibly fatally, hampered by the alert
ness, concentration and thOroughness.
not only Of our own intelligence sys-
TEN, but Of our censorship and personal
cables and wireless messages.
An excellent Illustration Of this work
The Censorship Department has been
doing is confined In the following an-
ecdote, told by one Of the men high up
in the censorship department:
Each day" this man said, I'VE pass
scores OF messages that tell OF
father being ilr or brother getting
we'll and the Ike
with no delay, whatever, the secret
service department is notified and an
agent goes around 90 the home address
where father or brother are supposed
10 be lying IN or cOnyalescing. II
father Is not an and brother Is not con-
valescing this means an arrest or two.
Such messages early In the war were
a favorite way employed by members
OF the German spy organization in this
country OF notifying the Fatherland
that a certain ship carrying soldiers or
munitions was due to leave O certain
eastern port on a certain day by a GER
tain route
Alert work OF this kind has conf
pclled the German spy organization to
change its codes and resort tO others
that VIII throw the liye-wire American
Intelligence men or the track. But now
the United states has the kaisers lat
est code, and poor Bill is worrying. for
the submarine cannot effectively halt
transportation Of L. s. troops or muni-
tlons without the aid OF its German
spy system In America.
This captured spy had TO do directly
with the military and political Ger
man SPY. one Of the most important,
the best educated and the most elusive
Of the entire German intelligence de-

thorough training before leaving his

Pat Corley, who is engaged in
shipbuilding At Dantzler's ship
yards, at Moss Point, is at home to
spend . few days with his father,
Judge w. M. Corley. Pat is q
good boy, and deserves credit for
the splendid record he is making.
He is saving his money, and has
joined with his father in buying
the Sanderson place on the Jack
son road, consisting Of 40. acres,
where the Judge and his family
will move to as soon as the crop
on the Berry place is gathered.
Their new home is an attractive
one, and will rapidly enhance in
value as soon as the gravel road is
completed, which will be soon af-
ter the war is over.
Friends Of the McNair family.
of Thomasville neighborhocd,
were greatly shocked last week to
learn Of the death Of DR.. and Mrs.
Roland Crosby, which occurred at
st. Joseph's Hospital, in Mem
phis, Tenn. Mrs. Crosby was
Miss Eunice McNair, the youngest
daughter of Mrs. John McNair.
She was happily married last year
to DR.. Crosby, prominent physi-
clan of Memphis. DR.. and Mrs.
Crosby were both stricken with
influenza, and pneumonia devel-
oped, which resulted in their
deaths within few hours of each
other. The bodies were carried
to Moselle, Miss, for interment,
DR.. Crosby having lived there be-
fore moving to Memphis.
The Work or Fight order was
applied here Saturday, when
three big, young husky fellows,
who were engaged in selling
maps on the streets, were
notified by Secretary Lindsey, OF
the Local Board, that the work
they were engaged in was not es-
sential to the prosecution of the
war, and that they would have to
change jobs right away, or else
the Board would summon them
for physical examination, and
induct them into military service
forthwith. Upon receiving this
information they promised to get
to work at something considered
essential, and left town immedi-
ately. A list Of the non-essen-
tial will be found in another col
umn of today's paper, and it is
the duty of every patriotic citizen
to report every man who is not
engaged in work considered by
the Government to be necessary
for the winning Of the war.

A MESSAGE OF SYMPATHY.

The following letter Of sympa-
thy has been sent to Mr.. and Mrs.
B. A. Clark by the members of the
Methodist church at Johns, ex-
pressing deep sympathy for them
in the death Of their splendid
young son, who gave his life for
us in France:
] Johns, Miss, Oct. 81, 1913
Dear Mr.. Clark and Family: It
was with sorrow that we learned
Of the death of your son while in
action in France. The church and
community Of Johns extend to you
in your sorrow their deep sympa-
thy, and trust that you may be a.
bic to see the bright spot in your
dark cloud Of trouble.
Surely there is much conSola-
ton in the fact that he died for a
noble cause and while doing his
duty bravely and we'll, and though
it may seem hard that he alone Of
many around you must make the
supreme sacrifice, yet such is fate
and we must feel that Gods way
is best after all.
Again assuring you Of the SYM
pathy and prayers of the church
and people Of the community, we
are, Sincerely,
MRS. L. p. BURNHAM,
