priation can be used for the expenses
of inspection stations existing solely

ment Of the National Board of
Health. 1t is to be used exclusively
for the aid of State and local boards
of health, and to local quarantine
stations.
In carrying out the rules and
regulations, the National Board
f Health is authorized to
Iudge of the kind of aid to be rem
dered to such boards and stations,

tions of local boards under the pros
vision of the act of August 7th,

The Mystery Cleared Up.

The mystery ofthe murder of the
esteemed and gallant citizen of
Mississippi Gen, Tucker, has at
last been revealed, and We say this
upon the authority of the Meridian
Mercury, whose editor speaks Of
the matter AS follows:
It's remembered that Gen. Tuck
err had 4 day or two before his as
sassination thrashed a negro boy
by tie name OF Houston Parish for
beating his little son. The circum.
stances pointed a suspicion at this
negro boy--a big negro youth
abouti19 or twenty years old, Up
on this suspicion he was arrested
and detained perhaps until now
lie, the other day, confessed thu
murder, making a clean breast o
ii. He implicated one Allen Hor
ton, and says he fred the shot tina
killed their joint victim. A bette:
manSthe State never had than Gen
Tucker. He was an honor to he
annals in peace, and a glory t
them in war.

AMI with this number we commence
the 37th volume. This paper was es
tablisled in 1912, by oar father, John
T. Ford, and with our assistance has
been published continuously up to the
time of his death in 1875, and since
that period by us alone until the pres
ent time, with the exception of q few
years during. the war when the pape 7
was first suspended and the office and
printing material afterward totally des-
troyed by the Federal soldiery. Con-
sequeptly this is the Oldest newspaper
in North Mississippi, and, probably
with one or two exceptions, it is the
oldestfn the State. The subscrl ptiop
of many Of our patrons expired with
the last issue, and we hope all, OF as
many as can, will come Forward and re
new the same by cor. plying with GU.
terms Of advance Payments. This ha;
been one Of the hardest years on news
papers that We have known for many
years, anT, wc hope those who are il

Der of subscribers, who are seyora
years in arrears to us for subscription
who do not seem to realize the fact tha
instead of beneGting us they make u
poorer each yeal so far as our bust
ness relations with them is concerned
because not only our time and labo
but our money are expended TO turnls
them the paper each week, for whlc
we receive no equivalent. But enoug
.orthis-a word to the wise is sutticien'
10 those who have stood by us, el
,couragod and helped us during tt
many years we have been publishing
newspaper at this place, whether in az
versity or prosperity, we feel pr
