ply was limited and was being used
for coffee only However. to avoid a

milk. When he placed the can before
the negro the latter struck him on the
wrist with a fork and then struck az
him with a chair. The negro then
ran out to the front OF the boat. threat
ening to kill Hilderbrandt. The lat
ter ran to his room and secured hts

Although the city of Mariana has
had orders placed with the Gay Oil
Company, of Little Rock. for several

here. 1t is probable none OF the orders

OF the Gay Oil Company stating II will

"We cannot give any definite idea

Mr.. McClintock Immediately sent the
following wire to Mr. Sheffield of the
national fuel administrator office:
"Will you give Gay Oil Company of
Little Rock permit to ship city OF
Mariana sixteen hundred gallons of
road oil to be used on some. unfinished
street work. and as far as 1t will go
for preservation of other streets and
health of citizens?"
No reply has yet been received to
the telegram. The fact that oil sof
street purposes is placed on tho non.
essential list indicates the city may
not be given permission to purchase
oil for this purpose.
