Below will be found a statement of I conditions as reported to this board by s ^ j the physicians of the town and by the health officer. In 1913 there were 43 cases. In i j January this year 15 cases were re- i f | ported, four whites and 11 blacks. i And for February to date #4 case3 have been reported and there is some doubt one of these being small pox.

BEFORE THE MAGISTRATE. Several Cases, All Negroes, Disposed 1) oi This Week by Magistrate J. C. Sample. i Magistrate .las. C. Sample is endeavoring to break up lawlessness in this t county, or at least to nut a ston to tiie o unlawful carrying of weapons and the promiscuous shooting of these firearms with loud cursing in front of private i ! residences at the otherwise quiet hours j | of the-night, judging from the heavy fines he is putting against the guilty c I ones, and he is right, the only way to g f 1 | break up crime is to punish the crim- \ ! Inal heavily. Let him feel the heavy, ^ iron hand of the law, and Sample is ! the officer to do it. On Monday he imposed the following } sentences on the "prisoners at the y bar": Clyde Sanders, $250 or 90 days. Jim Clark $100 or CO days, and Xo- ^ ' land Glenn $50 or 30 days. Sanders :ook the days, as he couldn't, raise the ^ two-fifty. The fines of the other two were paid. A haul or 51;>U m one r_\ morning is a prerty good help to the treasury, the $400 would have been j fine. * ]v { The above sentences upon the three 1 negroes resulted from cursing and } shooting on Saturday night in the road in front of Mr. George Brehmen's A residence on Mr. E. M. Evans' place ic a little beyond the city limits from | the Oakland mill. Mr. Brehmer is ov- j erseer for Mr. Evans. Sheriff Blease ! j and Policeman Melton were notified j iy of the disturbance and they arrested | the negroes and brought them in. j ft Sanders' heavy, aggregate fine was ; because he was found guilty of all c three charges, drunk, disorderly dis- e: turbance and carrying weapon. Chick a for being drunk and carrying pistol, p and Glenn for drunk and disorderly. They will not want to be taken before n Magistrate Sample again and they ;y will want to keep out of the way of Sheriff Blease and Officer Melton. I: I To fnstltute Council of Pocahontas, y Friday is the day for Mr. 0. Klet- ' tner to go to Greenwood to institute ' n a Pocahontas council of the great or- 1 S tier of the Red Men. If tfcere is a man ! vho ought to be appreciated in the (\ community, that man it Otto Klettner , ?a quiet, unobtrusive, attend-to-his- j own-business man, a busy man. good ; a::d successful merchant, who takes !e time to do things for other people for tl their benefit. At this time he is en- e i gaged in the noble work of instituting, tl in various piaces or tne btare, iriDes h and councils of the high order of Red ti Men, in which he takes pride and si pleasure, and at which he is success- :1 ful, putting his acknowledged ability tf into the work. There are others, but v it is not every one to whom is appli- a cable the true saying and worthy of li imitation that an honest man is the j noblest work of God. Worthy men often are not appreciated at their true worth in the community in w'jich they lire. is ? !d AS JSJLWJL1SJT AUUIC-IS99.
