new COMPLICATIONS
POSTMASTER WRITES THAT BEN FOWLER
KILLED SIX WEEKS AGO

Last weeks Democrat carried
what was purported to be an ac-
count Of the killing Of Tom Prisock,
who was supposed to have assumed
the name of Ben Fowler of Ethel
vile Alabama.
w. P. Rodgers of Stallo wrote to
the postmaster Of Ethelville for fur-
ther information regarding the re-
ported killing Of Tom Prisock. The
letter from the postmaster does not
purport to show that Ben Fowler
and Tom Prisock were not one and
the same person. However, 1t does
state that the man killed was not
killed Saturday one week ago as
was stated by Tom Boutwell, to
Sheriff Posey, but several weeks ago.
We produce the letters below.

Dear Sir:
A man appeared in this town yes

here for murder; (One) Tom Prisock
who resisted arrest The man claims
9that the body was buried there and
as there is u reward out for the
above Prisock we think 1t q little 1r-
regular that he failed to produce the
body. Therefore, l write to get the
particulars from you. | enclose sell

He was shot and killed by his father

FUNDS.

Jackson, Miss, May-Last year the
Methodist Episcopal Church, South,

the shortage has reached l 100. These
are figures compiled by the Chris
tian Education Movement, in behalf
OF which Josephus Daniels, former
secretary OF the navy, has toured

y 1t is estimated that 81 per cent OF
the preachers are educated at the de-
colleges OF the church.
Statistics show that the Southern
\ lMethodists rank second In member
aship among the Protestants. Yet,
Gaccording to authorities, some Of
lthe schools and colleges in the South
twill have to close next fall because
OF the lack OF funds.

HEN LAYS EASTER EGGS
EGGS LAID WITH COLoRED RINGS

Mr.. w. T. Wilson, who lives out
on Route / about 3 miles east of
Philadelphia, has a hen that lays
colored eggs. The eggs are white,
dark brown and bright yellow, and
no two eggs are of the same design.
The colors are in rings that vary
from the fraction OF an inch In width
to wider. The hen that lays these
eggs. with golden rings, has not
been located. She drops them about
the yard, though occasionally one
is found in the nest.
The Democrat has heard of eggs
laid with the Lords prayer imprint
ed, and goose that once laid gold
en- eggs, but these are the first eggs
we have ever seen laid with golden
rings. just what sort OF chickens
these eggs will make 1t is hard to
tell. The stripes run the right way,
and the eggs might hatch sail birds. .
1t would not do, in such event, to
advertise the setting because our
Governor and Pardoning Board
might get wind OF it, and break up
the nest.
. II anyone thinks these Easter eggs
are artificially colored he may ex-
anime them at Turner's Drug & jew
elry Store. where they will be on ex-
hibition until they become too old
to be safely handled.

NESHOBA COUNTY BOYS WRITE
WARMLY FROM A. 8 N.
EDITOR CENSURED FOR NOT HAVING NESHOBA
COUNTY BOYS At TRACK MEET. INVITED TO
COMMENCEMENT
The following letter has been re-
ceived by the Editor from our boys
at A. & NJ: so %r1E
Agricultural College, Miss.
May 8, 1921.

Editor.
The Neshoba Democrat,
Dear Sir: aa
The Mississippi state High School
Track and Field Meet was held here
on Friday and Saturday April % and
%. The members of the Neshoba
County Club noticed with very much
Disappointment that the high school
of Philadelphia was, not represented.
This was not only a disappointment
to the club but it made every mem
ber of the club feel bit. bad to see 80
many boys from various sections OF
the state and not to see any from old
Neshoba. This occurrence is the
third one of its kind and all three
times no team representing any part
of Neshoba County. Surely this can't
be because we have no Material in
the county or in the school for the
forming of track team, and. there
fore. thereason must be some other.
Is it possible that the people of
Philadelphia are too absorbed in
there own welfare to be concerned
about the welfare of the community,
and, hence, of the state. as whole?
We want to see Neshoba county put
on the map in every activity be it
what it may.
The Neshoba County Club of the
Mississippi Agricultural and Mechan-
ical College is composed of twenty
five members all from the county.
We have the distinction of being the
best organized club of It's kind in
school So far theclub has never mis-
sed but three regular meetings. Be
ing thus organized we were asked of
course why our school did not have
track team here at the meet We
were unable to say, and we still are.
Why can't the people of Philadelphia
overlook their selfish motives for
once in a year and give little pleas
urable trip to the deserving athletes
of one. of the best high schools in the
state, and help put the old town on
| the Map? We have noted with pleas
ure the good football teams that the
school has turned out and we believe
that the school has justas good track
material. All the thing needs is q lite
! tie more juice. How about squirting
the old town up bit? Step on her.
All she needs is a little more sand
and she goes over the top. Next year
we will be expecting q full attend
auce at the tract meet and we are
going to do all within our power to

OLD OARKY WINS CHILD
CUSTODY OF CHILD SOUGHT IN CHANCERY
COURT GIVES BOY TO UNCLE jim

A case of comedy and heart-throbs
was staged in Chancery Court here
last Monday, when Uncle Jim Trip
pet, very old and feeble darky,
came before Judge T. P. Guyton!ask-
ing for the custody of his foster-child
1t seems that Alec George, the fos-
ter child, was abandoned by his moth
r years ago, when a.mere babe and
that Uncle Jim took the child and
cared for it and reared it. The boy,
now fifteen. years of age, left his fos-
ter homeland went to work on pub
lie works in Newton County short
time ago. Uncle Sam Anderson, an
other old darky, began taking a pa
ternal interest in the boy, and ap-
peared as attorney in the boys behalf.
Judge Fl. H. Rodgers Of Louisville,
represented Uncle Jim. When ask
ed by the Court if he wanted an at
torney Uncle Sam stated thathe did
not need one. Uncle Sam, who
claimed to have been behind the
breastworks of Columbus, Mississippi
during the War, made a pretty good
lawyer. He ~as quite familiar with
all the terms of court, and could ask
witness when y certain party de
ceaseded" with the non chalance OF
a man of talent.
Judge It. P. Guyton, however, in
very touching words, gave the GUS
tody of the child to Uncle Jim. Aban-
doned by its mother, and the identi-
ty of its father unknown, and cared
for all these years by old Uncle Jim,
gave him an interest in the child as
it's foster-father, and the poor old
man went back to Hight in Winston
County quite happy with his un-
grateful charge.
