1T. BRAGG TURNS
TABLES ON GEO.:
SHOWS HIM UP
CHAPTER III

Not to be outdone by his
brother, George M. Bragg, who
Showed him up" Saturday as
sweet potato champion, Police
Lieutenant John Bragg took an
other and more careful look at
his garden Sunday morning.
And he found the ground liter
ally dustin" open. Today he
appeared at the Times-Recorder
office with a basket of Porto
Rico yams, most of them fully
grown, and some of them a bit
larger than those shown Satur-
day by his brother.
''No sir, George Bragg aint no
sweet potato champion" an
nounced Lieut.. John, as he laid
his evidence down for inspec-
ton. Fact is, I've had these big
ones all the time but didn't
know it. | didn't want to get to
digging around in my potato
patch until they get large
enough to make it pay, for its
waste to dig 'em now. George
Bragg amt got any potatoes as
fine as these. And besides, he
didn't raise them he was show
ing around here Saturday. They
were raised by Mr. FIail and Mr..
Ford down on Sam Bragg's
place. George will have to join
the police force before he goes
to competing with John in rails
ing anything"
Chapter a of the Great
Bragg Yam Controversy" is

will have to bend every energy and
underbid all competition. This coun-

According to the best report OBJ
tainable, Mr.. Thorne is in a precari-

friends fear he may not sustain the
shock.
Grady Thorne, who was scuffling

The late, continued rains have
brought forcibly to notice the fact
that hardly another house in the coun-
ty has been so neglected as the court
house. More than a year ago the
guttering was quite all rotted away
and with each big or continued rain
that comes the walls are so saturated
with water that in some Of the Off
ces it is impossible to keep down the
mildew, 1t is very poor economy to
let so valuable a building 90 with
out repair regardless of the cost-for
the neglect is still more expensive. AL
so the walk approaching the court
house on the Northwest side, is al
most continuous pool of water to be
walked through, every big rain that
comes.
