ON the Subject,

EDITOR STAR: AS Mississippi has
the natural advantages. resources
and the opportunity o. building up
a city Oh her seaboard. permit me
to set forth some of the facts relative
to that matter.
The chain of islands on her
southern border furnishes harbor
second to none in American waters,
for ingress, safety and general
utility. Her pine forests have been,
and will be, calling hundreds Of
vessels from foreign countries an
nually, that come in ballast, that
would otherwise come treigh,ed, if
there was an outlet to the north
for their freights. The freights
that would pass over this line would
be the sugar and coffee imported
from the islands in the Gulf of Mex.
leo aud Mexico proper.
The grain, tobacco and mer-
chandise that becomes injured from
dampncss by being transported
down the Mississippi river, land to
await reshipment) and large pro-
portion of the cotton raised north Of
of Jackson (not in reach of the Mis-.
sissippi river) would pass this way.
The air is so pure and dry here,
that grain or other merchandise
could lay in bulk with as much
safety as it does in Chicago or New
York. Cotton could pass through
this port Tor less than five dollars
per bale, while to ship one through
New Orleans or Mobile will cost
near ten dollars, and the money
gone out Of your State. Will Mis-.
sissippi always pay tribute to Louis-
lana and Alabama?
The Jackson Clarion spoke out
on this subject in an issue last sum-
mer, but tue Clarion, if | remember
correctly, wished to give State
lands to some company and have a
road built in that wsy. That has

thirty years, and no company has

For some time past 1t has been well known
that trouble existed in the church, that was
liable, sooner or later, to break out in an
aggravated form.
At the meeting the matter finally came to
head, so to speak, but with less serious re-
suits than had been anticipated. It may be
said, however, that challenges were made and
protests entered upon either side, and at
times the feeling was rather warmer than
our ecclesiastical brethren are wont to as
sumo in any arguments advanced by them.
The polls were finally opened and the contest
commenced. There were two tickets in the
field, as follows:
Senior Warden-John Durham.
Junior Warden-W. 3. Folds.
Yestrymen-R. B. Langdon, @. ". Case, J.

Vestrymen-R. 81. Draper, J. W. Murray.

yon, j. D. Williamson, Charles Wake, w, ].

The polls closed at noon and the result
was declared. The ticket headed by Col.
Hans Mattson was victorious, having an
average of about fifty votes out of the
seventy cast This ticket was friendly to the
pastor, DR.. Corbett.

CHAPTER or ACCIDENTS.


Mr. Mnoonsber Badly Burmed--Mr. Green

Gus Shooting from. the Careless Use 81
Firenrnas.
We are enabled this morning to present
our readers with quite chapter of accidents
First on the list comes Mr.. C. Macomber, who
is engaged in the manufacture of patent
paint. While experimenting with his pat.
ent, the stuff by some means became ignited
and burned Mr.. Mecomber about the hands
and face in frightful manner. A compe-
tent physician was summoned, the wounds
properly dressed and the patient is now on
the road to speedy recovery.
The next on the list is a gentleman
brought down from Einckley. Moses Green
is the gentleman's name, and he was so I'M
fortunate as to bring an axe in contact with
his foot with such force as to cut through
it and remove a good sized portion. he was
brought to this city and placed in the care
OF skillful physician, who is doing every
thing possible for him.
And now comes another accident caused
by the careless handling of firearms by
children. Up in North Minneapolis some
youngsters were playing with revolver,
"AOAA oAiO VI OliCll OtSSiltlISetA Uuo weapon.
The ball penetrated the thigh of little son
of Mr.. j. Fl. Overlook, who re-
sides at the corner of Fourth
street aud Fourteenth avenue south.
The wound proved dangerous one although
fortunately not fatal. 1t is of little use to
moralize over this accident, for if of daily
occurrence the youth Of our city would,
doubtless, contintinue to be just as careless
as ever.
Rudolph Long, while painting his house
in lower town, yesterday afternoon, brought
into use long ladder. After working some
time it became necessary to shift the posi-
ton of said ladder. In making the
change of position the ladder slipped
and MI. Long was thrown to the ground,
sustaining fracture of the left shoulder
blade. Physicians were summoned, and at
8 O'Clock last night the gentleman was re-
ported feeling somewhat easier, although
still suffering severely from the effects of the
fall.

fered from loss of appetite, and insomnia,
and pains in his joints. He also had re-
mittent fever. He worked until about three
weeks ago, when he took to his bed and DR..
Schmidt treated him for fever and deranoe-
ment of the liver until the 9Th inst, when
the sick man was removed to st. Francis,
hospital. His case puzzled the attending
physicians. The symptoms did not yield
to the remedies applied. The patient lin
gered until the 18th. Mrs. Hartmann
and their little boy, Paul, also became sick
after eating the meat, the woman exhibiting
similar symptoms to those of her husband
Her face and eyes became swollen, and she
grew SO weak that she was scarcely able to
work. In the case of the mother and child
the sickness abated, and the boy is doing
we'll, but Mrs. Hartman is still confined to
her bed. She says that, on cutting into the
meat. she found, under the rind. series OF
cells which she described as looking like
blisters, and of o different color from the
rest of the meat. When the medical board
suspected the case of trichinosis, pieces
were taken from the diaphragm, intercasta]
muscles, and the right deltoid, and examined
under the microscope, when a number o1
we'll developed trichin@ were found. Pieces
cut from the body of the deceased showed
undoubted evidence Of trichina spiralis.

Wo'Hinyhse"'s Union Meeting.

At the meeting of the Workingmen's
Union held last evening, the principal bust.
ness transacted was the adoption of pre-.
amble and resolutions setting forth the dis
advantage to them Of the monthly payment
system, and urging the necessity of weekly
payments of salary due for work. Ihey
resolved to respectfully ask all those employ.
ing hired help of any kind whatever
to pay such help as often as once week sc
that they can take advantage OF purchasing
for cash and thereby save to themselves the
percentage always given for cash, and pro-
tect the dealers and tradesmen from the
necessary losses that credit system is sure
to entail.
In addition to the above, the Union re-
solved to insert notices in the Eastern pa
pers, ccunteracting the advertisements of
those capitalists who have been claiming that
there was a scarcity of men III this part of
the country, and wages accordingly higher
than paid there.

Catherine BeeeAe,,s Testimony.

SIN: Those who credit the recently re-
newed accusation of my brother, Henry
Ward, are either wicked men who would do
the same things themselves, or those who
have not been taught in church or family,
that circulating improved accusations of
persons of established good character is SIAN
der. I am the eldest child, and never heard
of an indecent or impure word or act by my
mothers cons, either from family, school, or
college, and if there ever was man who had
established high character for purity, hon
or and truth, it was my brother, Henry
Ward. I hope the day is at hand when all
honorable women, for their own defense aud
the protection of their sex, will Danish from
society all men or women who circulate un-
proved accusations against persons of good
Character. CAFFEINE -. BEEcHER
