SPECIAL NOTICE! The SNEAK, Whoever it was, who has been circulating the report over the city of late that THE SEARCH LIGHT had gone out of business, will have to come with a bigger LIE than that before he can accomplish anything. This low down report has been circulated at a number of places. The Search Light, instead of going out of business will be better than ever; brighter than ever, and better prepared than ever to serve the people. From now on you will not hear that same report, but you may expect something else just as false. In the mean time watch the Search Light grow.

U. S. Civil Service Commission. Dogs Being Poisoned A sort of wholesale poisoning of dogs has been going on in Bainbridge for some time. A number of the finest dogs in the city having been killed. Mr. F. A. Preston lost his fine Collie, which he could have sold only a few days before for $150. Other dogs valued very highly by their owners have been pois oned. It is said the dogs find the poison on the streets and it is believed someone is throwing it around promiscuously. In view of the above, those who have the animals that they value had better keep them confined. Even this however, will not ex empt them from the poison, as one citizen lost his dog by the poison being thrown into the room at the barn where he kept them and had them locked up. The people are getting consid erably wrought up over the mat ter and if the guilty parties can be caught up with they will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. - uo wane in hi “• R.

So much meat has been lost in South Georgia from |hot weather that the whole country has taken no tice. The National Government is advising the people in this sec tion to build a sort of ice box, which is said to be so arranged that meat can be cured with ease and with very little cost. It seems all the better however, that the farmerj have a cold storage arrangement builton the farm.
