KEEPING THE PEACE

The Columbus Fire Department
played a new role, Monday morning,
but the role was well played. Two
negro men engaged in a rough and
tumble fist fight near the Franklin
Academy, and somebody turned in a
riot call to the Fire Department. The
fire ladies got out with their ac
customed speed and put an end to the
fracas. 1t seems that our fire fight
ers are good at whatever they un-
dertake. No wonder the people send
them boxes Of candy and baskets of
fruit Thanksgiving and Christmas.
They deserve to be remembered.

inquiry Of those who were supposed
to know, have failed in giving a sat
isfactory answer AS stated, this,
like other celebrations throughout
the country are local In nature and
4th Of May, 1865, was on Thursday
held at various dates. The sugges-
ton Of a solution then is that as the
and during the following three days,
including Sunday, the news was car
ried in all directions and work was
positively discontinued On Monday
there was doubtless a general relinq-
uishment Of work and seryitude and
shat day has since been known and
observed here as Emancipation Day.
Another event Of uncertainty and
Of as little Importance was the es-
Enlistment here Of the telegraph Of
flee, dates ranging from 1845 to 1S48.
However, we know that Telegraph
Brown" was the operator, socalled, to
him from Other Browns,
Just as Mr.. r. r. Johnston will be
Known as Centennial Johnston" to
HIM from other John
;tons.

1t is fully realized that the forego-
ing is of little or no interest to the
general reader; merely list of names
without significance, but to- others,
descendants perhaps Of some Of these
early settlers, it means much; for
aside from sentimental rpasdns, it
indicates who were prominent in
business, educational and religious
circles in those early days, thus add
ing materially to the resources of
some future historian.
From the record it seems that
Lowndes county had active men in
the legislature of 1886 and it is not
amiss to name them here:
State Senator, Stephen Cooke.
Representatives, A. b. bearing, A.

Along with the custom of observ-
ing Confederate Decoration Day, the
date and occasion of which has been
thoroughly discussed and determined
upon, is that Of Emancipation Day,
both the results Of the war of Seces-
sion. The eighth of May is locally
celebrated by the benefciaries of the
latter upon the association Of it with
the date of surrender of this depart
ment at the close Of the war. This,
however, is utterly uAtenable, as is
conclusively shown by this memoran-
dun of conditions Of the surrender
Of the forces and munitions of war,

Mississippi and East Louisiana, com

THIS CITY AND SECTION AT AN
EARLY PERIOD
by COLONEL w. a, LOVE.

This being our Centennial year,
seems not Inappropriate to offer 70
publication some miscellaneous dat
that may prove OF interest to a few
Of gour readers and profitable IL
local historians Of the future.
Before or at the settlement of Col
umbus the nearest rostoffice was
where Pontotoc now il in the Chick
asaw Nation, established in 1918 ana
supposedly on the Natchez Trace
That noted road, which was coded by
the Choctaws and Chickasaws to the
United States in 1901, while the sub
iect Of much discursive writing by
state historians and others, exhibit
ing generally, more literary finish
than historical fact, have left the
real route, or postroad, unmentioned.
There is no designation in adver-
tisements Of particular roads over
which mails are carried, but it is
evident that this one, issued January
20, 1919, inviting proposals for SER
vice for four years, commencing
January, 1919, was over the Natchez
Trace:
Route 238: From Nashville, Tenn,
by Franklin, Columbia, Key Springs,
Mount Pleasant, Fishing Ford, Big
Spring, Bear Greek, the Factory and
McIntoshvile to Chickasaw POST
office; estimated at 24e allies, three
times a week.
"Route 239: From Chickasaw
Postoffice, by Choctaw Agency, Red
Bluff, Grindstone Ford, Post Gibson,
Trimble's Greenville, Huntstown,
Union and Washington to Natchez;
274 miles; three times a week"
There were several Agencies
throughout the Indian country, whore
annuities were paid and other tribal
business transacted.
Route 24S: From Natchez by
Evansville, Woodville, Pinkneyville,
Webb's, st. Francisville, Thompson's
Greek, st. Johns Plains, Baton
Rouge, Manchok, Blanchardvine,
Goodberry's and Buffers to New Or
leans; three times a week; 214 miles.
The next post route, and one that
immediately concerns us, was over the
Jackson Military Road, as per state
ment Of the First Assistant Posti
master General: Il beg to state that
the records Of this office show that
the Columbas Office was established
March 9. 1890, and that Thomas
anpson was appointed postmaster at
that place. Your letter is referred
to the Second Postmaster General for
information requested relative to the
mail supply at Columbus"
In 1886 there was a fire at the
postoffce department building which /
destroyed the greater part of the rec
ords and rendered impossible an am
swer to my second question. 1t is
supposed, however, that as the mill 1
tary road led through the Choctaw
country for $50 miles, Columbus was
the terminus of the route and was
served weekly.
In enumerating his many official
duties in the early days of Colum-
bus, DR.. Gideon Lincecum mentions
among them the opening of the mails,
six times a week. This evidently APP
plies to a later date when he may
have been postmaster, or assistant
The above error of statement, like
that of meeting the surveyors of the
Natchez Trace at the crossing of the
Tombigbee here IN 1919, is doubtless
the result Of a Lapse of memory, as
they were written half a century and
more after the occurrences and
evidently without the necessary data.

Philharmonic
Ends Season
OF Activity

The seventy ninth seasons activities
of the New York Philharmonic Orches-
ira conclude with its arrival in New
York this morning, after ten weeks of
travel, during which the orchestra
played in some seventy different cities
in twenty eight states and two Cana
dian provinces.
The tour, which represented the irst
visit of the Philharmonic to the Pa
cifc Coast, was accomplished without
casualty beyond temporary disability
to Conductor Stransky and the treas
urer, R.. C. Heck. The Philharmonic
conductor was rendered inactive fo.
day or two by troublesome arm which
made it impossible for him TO conduct
the concert in Eau Claire, Wis, and
Mr.. Heck was obliged to undergo
minor operation in the same city and
to remain there for two or three days.
The personnel Of the orchestra
throughout the tour included sixty
nine players and two conductors and
they were accompanied in their travels
baggage masters. In only one city did
the orchestra remain for two days,
although two concerts were played in
one day in several places. The trans
portation of the Instruments from the
baggage car to the hall in every city
necessitated the handling twice daily
of about one hundred trunks, with a
weekly distribution and collection Of
one hundred and thirty.
With the return of the Philharmonic,
interest in the personnel of the or
chestra for next season runs high. 1t
is doubtful if any of the So
called minimum priced" contracts will
be made until a definite understand
ing with the musical union con-
corning the terms and conditions which
will govern the prices for musicians
services in concert and rehearsal is
reached. A decision given by the Ap-
pellate Division of the Supreme Court
of New York which is said to make
the Musical Mutual Protective Union
body independent of the American
Federation of Musicians may present
some new features in the orchestral
situation.
On and after tomorrow seats for the
Metropolitan Opera House series of
Philharmonic concerts, which have been
on sale at the Philharmonic box office,
will be sold in the offices of the Phil
harmonic Society at the eastern en-
trance to the Carnegie Hall Building,
on Fifty-seventh Street. Under this
arrangement subscriptions for all
series are received at one and the same
place.

Charles Meredith's HONEYMOON

Charles Meredith, leading man in the
screen version of Guy Bolton and
George Middleton's comedy, "The Cave
Girl" advises bridegrooms against try
ing to make honeymoon out of
picture trip. AS a result of his ex-
perience his bride has just recovered
from a nervous breakdown in conse-
quence of witnessing him in thrilling
fight The combat was staged on the
brink of the Verona Falls, in the Yo-
semitic Valley of California. So dan
gerous was it considered that for
safety's sake piano wire was
stretched across the falls. This broke
and the two actors were engaged in a
to-the-death struggle, with nothing ex-
cept luck to prevent them from going
over. Mrs. Meredith saw the chances
her husband was taking and tried to GO
out to him. She was with difficulty
held back, and when the fight ended she
had tainted.

Ube Gholution of 4 5tar
4vs Jobm 8arrpmore

John Barrymore, like his sister
ing in Michael Strange's "Clair de
Lune" at the Empire Theater, inherited
his histrionic talents from his father,
Maurice Barrymore, and his mother,
George Drew, through whom he can
trace his ancestry back through long
lire of accomplished actors and ac-
tresses.
AS boy ne wanted to be an artist
and for a time he earned his living as
newspaper reporter, illustrating his
stories with his own drawings. Lately
he has returned to this form of ex
preston to illustrate book Of poems
by Michael Strange, and many of his
drawings for this work show a Do
rescue power, especially in their de-
lineation of what is grewsome and
grotesque.
He made his first appearance on the
stage when he was just twenty-one,
playing the part of Max in "Magda," !"
at Cleveland's Theater, Chicago. Com
ing to New York soon after this debut,
he obtained the part of Corley in
"Glad Of It," at the Savoy Thsater.
His first important part was that Of
Charley Hine in "The Dictator" pro-
duced at the Criterion Theater in 1904,
with William Collier as the star. The
next year he played this same part with
Collier in London, and few years
afterward he visited Australia with the
same star, playing this and other roles
of the same sort. Meantime he had
appeared in his sister Ethel's COM
pany in Sunday" and in "Alice Sit
by-the-Fire." He had also played the
clown in "Pantaloon" with his brother
Lionel.
By this time he had become known
as an actor of talent, but unusually err
ratio. Still he was always in demand
and it was seldom he was out of an
engagement for any length Of time.
His first really big success was made
, as Nat Duncan in "The Fortune" in
1909. A few years later, in 1912, he
again appeared with his sister Ethel
at the Empire Theater in Barrie's ga
Slice of Life" one-act piece. After
that he scored a success as Anatol in
"The Affairs of Anatol" at the Little
Theater.
Subsequently he appeared as the
American reporter in "The Yellow
Ticket" under the management of A.
H. Wood, and the same manager gave
him the leading role in "Kick-In." At
ter that he devoted his time largely to
the making of pictures, and in that
| field he has been remarkably successful
In recent years he has shown grow
ing desire to do the big thing, and his
| triumphs in Galsworthy's Justice in
"Peter 1bbetson," in Tolstoy's ere
demption," Selm Benefits "The JEST"
in which his brother Lionel also played,
and Shakespeare's Richard HI
these last three produced under the
direction of Arthur Hopkins-and his
present success as Gwymplane in
claire de Lune" at the Empire have
placed him in the very front rank of
American actors and hold forth the
promise that if he continues to develop
his great talents he will become before
long one of the very greatest Of Eng
disappearing players.
