The board of aldermen held its
uliu- monthly meeting at the citv hall
last evening. Mayor Hartsell presid
ed and all the members of the Iwurd
were present. t
Previous to the nicettiii; the hoard
held a caucus in the Mavor's ollico
in the meantime the little court room
was filled with citizens. Many of tin
nuiiwiice came auiicipaiui'.' a lively
meeting and others, it is said, were
there, in the nature of lobbyists. Those
antieupatuig a discussion n the
"blue laws," etc., were there with
their faces adorned with u look t.
anxiety. In tact it was rumored that
some of this number coniHiscd i,

lyf up to a soda fountain on Sunday

was the. habit) a "mornin-'s morn

The hour of the meeting was 8
o'clock, lint the caucus held tor se
era! minutes thereafter. Jn the mean
time the lolibvists, lookers-on nnd
plain citizens, talked nnil smoked
mostly smoked. In fact the little
room w as (so ful of , nitol ine erup
tions that some olit .remarked if the
aldermen saw it thev would hide
that, for the peace nnd comfort and
safely of the lives and fortunes of
certain citizens, thev would pull the
bun off sellint; "smokables" on Sun
day. But in the meantime the cau
cus continued, the crow waited and
smoked, while the windows rattled
and the building shook frfcfli activities;
of a band of Indians on a sculping
expedition upstairs where a rehearsal
tor Pnwhatnn was underway. But,
Anally, the aldermen appeared and,
cutting their way through the smoke
laden atmosphere, took their places
within the little bar, Citv Tax Col
lector Fink substituting for Clerk
Weddington, and the business of the
evening was finally on. The delay,
taking nil things into consideration,
was about as Jong s this introduc
tion to what transpired at the meet
ing. Mr. V. V. Widenhouse appeared
before the aldermen and requested
them to place a hre horse and wagon
at Forest Hill. He staled that it was
the center of a thickly populated sec
tion of the city; that the merchants
there could not carry a a sufficient
stock of goods on account of not hav
ing insurance and that the company
there would have eleven men readv
at all times to respond to a fire alarm.
Mayor Hartsell stated that the mat
ter would be referred to the proper
committee and firemen to decide. He
stated that he regretted that follow
ing a publication in the daily pap?r
that a horse would be sent to Forest
Hill tliat the Cannonville department
had decided to disband and expressed
the hope that the matter could be
amicably settled. The mayor added
that he had been unnhlc to find out
by .what ..authority .ncn a statement
was published. ; " .
(In passing, we will state to the
mayor that if he had taken sufficient
interest to make inquiry he could
have easily found out by "what au
thority the statement was publish
ed. ; The information was secured
from the head of a city department,
who has direct charge of such matters.
But, since the proposed move did not
prove popular with certain members
of the fire department, it appears that
the easiest way to "calm the trouble
waters" is to attach the blame to the
"daily newspaper." City Editor.) i
Petitions were received from resi

Statement Showing What Georgia
Boys are Making By Growing Pigs,
r'or several years a Bo' t orn Cluo
has been conducted in this county
with marked mkccss. Thcvluh hu
aruosed interest in corn culture, in.
spired boys to lu tilings and mak.'
things on tlieir nun rr.u-ilihl an i
has added to I lie material weallh o'
the county.
In numerous counties throughout
the country pig chilis have been or
ganized and are hein' cumlm-tol nloiu
lines similar to the corn clubs. Smli
a club would be of bom-lit to I iibar
rus. Statistics are not available but
it is estimated that hundreds ut Jul
lars go out from this county yearly lir
meat supplies. This mune goes out
of the county w hen it could easily he
kept at home bv producing the meat
in the county.
Ked Buck" Bryant receuMy tul-l
the Charlotte Observer of the result
that are being obtained from pig ilub-
111 Brooks county, (..'.. 11:1. II is arti
cle follows:
The Department 01 Auriculluie i.-
trying to get the farmers ol the Snitli
to go back to the growing of hog and
hominy. Corn clubs arc being or
ganized aud pig clubs encouraged.
Brooks county, lieorgin, is held up
as au example to the other counties
of Dixie.
The Southern States at one time
years ago produced lareg numbers ol
hogs and cured practically all of the
bacon necessary to Iced the people,"
declares a recent bulletin issued from
the Cilice of Information c f the De
partment of Agriculture. "At the
present time I lie same cannot he s'aiii
of a single Southern State and of but
few comities in any of these slates.
There is one county in (ieorgin, how
ever, that is showing others what can
be done by raising hogs. Brooks
county holds the distinction of pro-
Ucing more bacon than any other
county in Georgia. Hecently, 'l'l
wagon loads of cured bacon were de
livered at Quitman in one day. This
axounted to about 4',ll()0 pounds.
Last year Brooks county raised
the meat necessary for home con
sumption, shipped out several car
loads of hogs, and in addition sold
150,000 pounds ol bacon aj an aver
age price of 14 cents a pound. This
year it is estimated thai Brooks coun
ty will sell 2-")0,000 pounds of bacon
in addition to what is needed for
home consumption, mid 11 large num
ber of hogs shipped to the markets.
About 1.000 head of fat cattle will
also be marketed from the county.
The raising of livestock lias not been
accomplished at a sacrilice of other
crops, but has been produced in ad
dition to the regular crops with the
result that those who have taken up
this line of work are becoming the
leading and the most prosperous far
mers in the county. The cash re
ceipts for t lie livestock and bacon
sold from the county is near $100,000.
What is being done in Brooks
county it is believed could be done
in every county in the South. This
would put the farmer on a belter 'i
nancial footing because he would not
be dependent upon cotton as his
sole cash crop. Bacon can be made a
most profitable cash crop which can
be marketed in early Spring when
farmers arc so often in need of ready
money.
"The hoys of Brooks county have
manifested great interest in the or
ganization of pig clubs and an ex
ceedingly creditable exhibit will prob
ably be made by the boys at the coun
ty fair this fall."

Are Being Gathered in tha
Capital from Points Nearby. Tha
Number of Troops in the City Vow
is Scarcely Four Thousand. A
Dispatch Says Federals Are Com
pletely Surrounded at San Padre
de las Oononias.
Mexico City. April 10. With d
Webcl victory reported from all
Kints and ,the withdrawal of Fed
erals I nun the state of Guerrero, the
position of Mexico City is becoming
serious. Troos are being gathered
at the capital from oint8 nearby,
l'preparatious for the defense ara

The number of troops who are now
in the it y is scarcely four thousand.
Jourez, April 10. In a dispatch to
( arran.a Villa reported that he

arc completely surrounded annd that
the Constitutionalists hoped to ex
haust their ammunition and capture
them.
Fierce Fighting in and Around
Tampico.
Washington, April 10. Fierce
lighting is now in progress in and
about Taa.pico according to State
ami Navy Department dispatches.
Several of the oil tanks beyond the
city were shattered by shots. One is
on tire and others are threatened with
the (lames. Oil is running into the
river towards the harbor mouth.
There is danger of it catching fire,
thus causing a conflagration on the
whorves and among the shipping.
The situation is admittedly very
grave. There has been no confirma
tion received of the report that Ad
miral Mayo ordered the Federal gun
boats to stop tiring toward the city
on pain of being shotetaoiniinuunn
on pain of being sunk by shells from
American warships. Women, children

The rules of civilized.. warfare were
violated, two women being reported
hanged by the federal commander.
