Mr. Pliney Heeth our clever tax col lector is in town today, and from the way he is kept busy we think bo is col lecting mighty well for the first round. Some of our citizens were soum what shocked op Monday morning when the postmaster got a note out of the ulU^c addressed to Citizen^ of Oclilucuuee. notifying them that then; was a *'be fore day Club” in the town ana that certain of tho Colored ptu^.u ol the town wore leaders. There wos’i.t much excitement over it as we think khi.o fel low wanted to stir up a little excitement. We think that the colored people of our town think too much of themselves and are better citizens, law-abiding citizens than to have such a thing as a “Before day club.” Mrs. Alice Singletary is at the bedside of her mother, Mrs. Walker at Cairo, who has been quite sick for the past week.
