The White Caps.

morning white caps in Crawford county
whipped two women nearly to death-one will
probably die-and then proceeded to the house
of reputable citizen in the neighborhood and
ordered him to spread the news of their doings
as their warning.
The plans of the white caps had been over
heard, and the citizen had three friends with
him. He accordingly refused to do the bidding
of the white caps, and was threatened by them.
A fight ensued, in which three of the white
caps were shot, two of them fatally.
One of these is named Gregory, a country
merchant, aged fifty years, with family Of
grown children. Another is a saloon keeper
named Saunders, q worthless fellow. The
wounded men have been hidden away, and the
country is up in arms on hunt for them. A
bad state OF affairs prevails.

Bad Luck of the hustle Chair.

From the PhlIadeIphla Times.
The threatened abolition of the hustle is not
only grievious thing for the manufacturers Of that
article, but it dashes the hope of profit entertained
by certain furniture concern. This store prides
itself on novel designs in house furnishings. Only
month or ago its boss designer got patenton q
model of a sewing chair for women. Its unique
feature the shape Of the back the lower portion
of which extended rearward with bulge. This
was intended to accommodate the feminine hustle,
and the inventor believed that he had hit upon q
device that would sell thousands of those chairs.
But stock OF the hustle chairs is no sooner ready
to display than bustles begin to fade out of the
fashionable world and those chairs will have to be
altered into commonplace affairs to be saleabe.

A MONKEY on THE RUN.
Creates u Sensation on Pryor Street. Near
the Depot

An innocent little monkey, not much bigger
than an ordinary terrier, and with tail about
q yard long, created sensation on Pryor
street. between the Kimban house and Ala
bama street, yesterday.
The little fellow managed TO break the
moorings which held it under the
watohful eve of its proprietor, at
the Kimban house, and with long
chain dangling FROM its neck, started at break
neck speed down Pryor street. The proprietor
gave chase, and in a moment the street was
full of runners, all going in one direction and
following the monkey. Under the excitement
incident TO the chase, everybody began 20 yell,
which, adding 10 the monkeys fright, increased
his speed, which in turn was an incentive for
louder yclls.
The occupants lof the stores and Offices
Of the reghborhood did not know
what had broken loose, and ran 90 their doors
and windows to see what was tie MISTER. The
fleeing monkey WAS so little that il failed TO
catch thc attention OF the observers. whose
eyes wcru attracted 90 she bowling crowd,

Like to star unhasting, but unresting
You can do what you wish if you will;
The world to persistence gives way;
But to faint at the foot of the hill,
Condemns you forever and aye.
You've life time to fashion your life;
Then fashion it warily, we'll;
Every moment with chances is rife,
Each stroke Of the chisel wall tell.
Do not pirate that the big world is cold;
BY work is her favor achieved;
For the world gives not glory or gold,
Unless she gets value received.
AS the sun ever treads to the west,
Never Fastening, nor slackening his speed,
So must you never haste, never rest
Thus much does 1t cost to succeed.
There are pearls for the daring who dive
Deep down where the sea elfns be;
There are bubbles for such as do strive,
Mere dawdlers, on top Of the sea.

lively interest in the performance, and during

Springing from his seat with a shout, Taylor
whipped out bulldog revolver and joined in the
fight He had fired one shot into the crowd, when
an officer who was standing close by grabbed him
by the neck and threw him to the ground. Taylor
was Immediately turned over to the care of the
police and was sent for ten days to q place where

Notes From Unity NeIghbOrhOOd

Editor Herald-Cane grinding is
now under full headway in this
section, and judging from the size
of the patches and the quality Of
the same, there will certainly be
an abundance of syrup made this
season.
Cotton gathering has been thrown
back another week by heavy and
continued rains. Large quantities
Of it were beaten out and into. the
ground, and would hardly be fit for
anything if gathered up. Ginning
is somewhat behind, only a few
have ginned any, which is owing
to the push of work.
Mr.. Hugh Wing, who was SO
badly crippled some time since, is
still confined to his bed. He has
improved considerably, but not
enough 10 be up on his "sticks. +"
There has been considerable sick
ness around, but SO far none Of a
fatal nature. Mrs. VIM. Vennable
ls quite sick at present.
There is a prospect for the Butler
bridge to be finished this week.
rhe workmen have been terribly
hindered in their work on account
Of not being able to get lumber.
Tom is stepping as high as a
blind horse, and thinks no body
ever had a "boy" but him.

The Baptist Association.

Editor Herald-The Mississippi
Baptist Association convened "a
regular session on last Friday With
The Liberty Baptist Churcb, and
proceeded 70 oEgunlss y tho e.
election Of ail che Cd nsRcers n
that body, Wis, Ed. 3. N. Hail.
Moderator, WilfOrd 2 Lea, Treasur.
er, and D. NJ. HUFF, Clerk. The
attendance of delegates was large,
all the churches composing the
body being represented With few
exceptions. This body was en-
larged during its session by the ad-
dition Of four newly constituted
churches, and one church from a
sister Association. This is the
Oldest Association in the State, and
for nearly a century has held a
prominent place among her younger
sister Associations, and now ranks
among the largest in the State, and
from all the churches composing
this body, with one or two excep.
tions, the outlook was most cheer
ing for the denomination and the
advancement of the cause of Christ,
all the churches sending up evi.
dences Of zeal for the cause, show
ing that the last assoCiational year
has been one of unusual activity
among the churches and members
in the work Of missions, both home |
and foreign, and all the objects |
fostered by this body. The work |
Of the session was interesting and |
important throughout its sitting. |
Among the objects that claimed |
the attention Of the delegates, were
the permanent arrangement for the |
support Of the old, INDECENT and |
retired ministers Of the denomina- |
tion, the work Omissions, and the |
Of a fund for the education |
OF a young sister as a missionary |
for foreign fields, the encourage
ment and endorsement of the Mis-. |
sissippi College, at Clinton, Kinds
county, and theLea Female College, |
at Summit, both of which are re-
as places of learning
worthy the patronage of not only |
the denomination, but of the peo-
pie Of the state at large. The body |
pronounced emphatically in favor
of the cause Of temperance, and un-
relenting hostility to the liquor
traffic. The session continued four
days, with a very large congrega-
ton, and especially on Sunday,
when the Baptist Church was filed
TO its utmost capacity, with a large
number outside, who repaired to
The Presbyterian Church, which
had been kindly offered to the AS
sociation to be used upon this occa-
sion. Preaching was had in both
with large congregations,
md the Ladies Missionary Union
leld one of their very best meetings
n the Baptist Church, which was
characterized by very interesting
Exercises, consisting of devotional
ervices, the reading of reports,
ssays, and the delivery of an ad-
lress by the Vice President, which
Vas listened to with profound at.
ention. The meeting was harmoni-
us,and we hope will resultin great !
ood. It adjourned on Monday /
vening, to meet with the New
ion Church, eight miles north of
liberty, in October, 1889. =
