The first ground for the Edwards Mfg.
Cos new mill has been broken and the work
of erection is to be pushed with all possible
despatch. crew of IS men are already en-
ployed preparing for the foundation, and a
trench over ten feet in depth has been exca-
waited at the southwest corner on the clay
bottom of which the foundation stones will
rest. The northern extremity of the
structure will rest some seventy-tve
feet north of the channel which conducts the
water away from the main canal. The mill
will extend south across this channel or pas
sage which will be arched over. The wheel
pit has been located at the north east corner
of the mill near the river bank, and water
will be supplied through an iron pen-stock
from the canal. There will be a tower
which will stand opposite and just
across the street from the tower of the

The Public Schools.
Raymond Gazette

Raymond Gazette.
We hear it limited that an effort will
be made to have the Legislature at its
present session authorize the funding of
the school debt of Kinds county, which
has been run up during the past few
years to sum not far short of $40, 000
We have no objection to the funding Of
these outstanding warrants, but insist
that before it is done some assurance
must be given the taxpayers that sim
liar debt will not be Immediately con
traeted, to go through similar process
few years hence.
The law says sufficient number of
free public schools to accommodate the
educable children desiring to attend
shall be maintained in each scholastic
year, but whenever such schools cannot
be maintained and paid for without
levying and collecting a county tax for
school and county purposes that shall
in the aggregate exceed $3.50 ON each
$1,000 of taxable property, then the
question Of extending the schools be-
yond the constitutional requirement Of
four months to five months shall be at
the discretion of the Board of Euperyis-
ors, or the municipal authorities Of any
town which is separate school district.
As to the pay Of teachers the law pro-
yides that school with an average daily
attendance of % pupils, a first grade
teacher shall receive cents, a second
grade teacher 81 cents, third-grade
teacher 5 cents per day for each scholar.
As majority Of the schools of Kinds
county have an average daily attend
ance Of not less than 25, it is safe to say
that all the teachers employed average
second-grade-in other words receive
81 cents per scholar per day for four
months in each year. According to the
last census there are 1900 educable
children in the county between the ages
of 5 and 81 years, each being entitled tC
$50 worth of schooling every year
which foots up SS5,340 dollars. Th,
whole tax collected every year, includ
The Daily clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1866-1888, 1884-01-15

ing State, county, polls, school and rail.
road, amounts to only about $4,000,
and if this whole sum were used for
school purposes still there would be a
deficit Of more than $4,000.
In thus reviewing the matter the Ques.
ton naturally enough suggests itself,
where is it to end and it is easily an
swsred: in bankruptcy to the county,
unless the constitution is amended SO as
to reduce the number Of educabe chill
dren and also reduce the number Of
school months in each year, or author
ize the levy of an additional tax--which
could scarcely be borne at this time,
considering other heavy funded debts
now hanging over the country, That
legislation is demanded, no one can de-
ny, aud unless it is speedily had, Kinds
county will soon be developed by an in.
extrieable difficulty that will forever
stand in the way of future prosperity.

Miss Minnie Madden in Frou Frou.

Next Wednesday, the 10th inst, the
lovers of the drama in Jackson and vicin-
ity are promised treat of no ordinary
character On that occasion Miss Minnie
Madden, one Of the most attractive and
popular actresses on the American stage,
will appear at Robinson's Opera House in
the far-famed play OF Frou Frou. There
have, we believe, been several dramatiza-
tons Of this work Of the great French au-
thor, Jardon; but Augustin Days version
(now being P. e ented by Miss Maddern) is
by far the best ever offered to the public.
And she is SO perfect a mistress OF all its
passions and all its frivolities that her audi
ences are moved, despite themselves, to al
ternate tears and laughter.
The costumes worn by Miss Madden in
Frou Frou are declared by press aud pub
lie to be marvellous in their richness and
elegance, and we dare say this fact of itself
will attract many ladies to our handsome
Opera House next Wednesday evening, the
10th inst But tits not upon the surpris-
ing productions Of the dress maker and the
milliner that Miss Madden solely depends
to entrance her immense houses through
out the country. While manifesting a ge.
MUS for the society drama now almost I'M
equalled in America she evinces an indie
scribable refinement and delicacy Of ex
pression-and above all, that indefnablt
chic which, taken altogether, indicate ;
long familiarity, in real life, with th'
scenes amid which she moves upon tn,
mimic stage. Equally at homo in all tn,
higher phases Of comedy, and in all tn,
depths OF pathos, Miss Madden stands
like many Of her eompeers in other line
of art, alone and unrivalled; and thos
people Of Jackson who miss seeing her vii
deeply regret it after col firing with thos
who do.

Hon. 7. J. McQuinston for supsrin.
tsndent Of the Penitentiary.

EDITOR DAILY CLARION: | desire to
say word in behalf of this verify gen
tleman who is a candidate for re-elec-
ton. Since arriving in Jackson / have
visited the Penitentiary and find that its
condition has been excellent and the
treatment of the eonvicts uniformly good.
The Superintendent has not exercised
active surveillance over any convicts ex-
eept those confined in the walls" for
the reasons stated in tho Governors
Message, and is not responsible for the
condition or treatment OF the con-
viets in camps" ! find also that
under the administration of McQuiston,
that for the first time in the history of
the Penitentiary, it has yielded rev.
enue TO the State. Hsw this is at
tributabls to the Superintendent will
appear from an inspection of his duties
under the laws of 1877. AeQuiston has
only had the Office two years and by all
the presidents il entitled t. a re-elec.
ton and endorsement. He is supported
by all the representatives frsm his sec
ton Of the State, and this is ample
guarantee of his high standing at home.
Some of the candidates are urged be-
cause of war records. A man is entitled
to no credit for services rendered his
country, but it may be said that Nc
Quiston went to the war in 1862 at the
age of IA, and served with courage and
fidelity until its close.

4 New Treatment tor Neuralgia.

The latest agent introduced for the
relief Of neuralgia is / per cent. solu-
ton of hyperosmic acid, administered
) by subcutaneous injection. 1t has been
employed in Dillroths clinic in few
cases. One Of the patients had been a
martyr of sciatica for years, and had
tried innumerable remedies, including
the application Of electricity no fever
than 200 times, while for a whole year
he had adopted vegetarianism. Billroth
injected the above remedy between the
tuber ischii and trochanter, and within
a day or two the pain was greatly re-
lieved, and eventually quite disappear.
ed. Itwould be rash to conclude toe
much from these results, in the face Of
the intractability Of neuralgia to medi
cation. but if it really prove to be as eff
feacious as considered, hyperosmic acic
will be therapeutic agent Of no NEAR
value.-Lancet.
