THE EQUICABLE'S osth ANNUAL
REPORT.

The most notable points in the Report
are the enormous business done and the
enormous surplus fund. The new busi.
ness OF 1887 was 100000, and the
surplus is over $1S,000,O 900, on the
standard of four per cent. interest. This
indicates great prosperity, due not to
luck, but to business ability, to that in>
telligent perception Of the wisdom of
measures adopted to supply the public
want, and at the same time build strongr
ly and permanently. Every man who
assures his life desires, in so doing, to
leave to bis family legacy (not liti-
gation), and therefore the indisputable
policies Of The Equitable are the safest
form of assurance ever offered to the
public. When the policies become
claims, in consequence of the death of
the assured, or by the maturing of its
endowments, they are as available as
United States Government Bonds, and
can be collected more promptly. The
public believes that The Equitable
issues policies that assure. First, because
the contract of assurance is reasonable
and liberal, and second, because the
Society shows unequaled financial
strength.-Record.-R. P. LAKE, Gen'l

Judge Pardee, of the United States

States. 1t appears, however, thata clause
in the Georgia enactment permitted the
sale of wines made in the State, from
grapes grown in the State, while wines
made in other States were not allowed
to be sold. The court ruled that State
law should not declare exceptions and
prohibitions to the disadvantage of pros

High Compliment from a COIOred
Man,
Meridian, Miss, March Is, 1888.

EDITOR SENTINEL,
Dear Sir-In looking over many OF the
back numbers of the old reliable (the
SENTINEL), you have in very beautiful
style and truthful manner shown the
many advantages Grenada possesses over
many other towns and cities much supe-
rior to her in size, but there seems to be
a striking feature upon which you did
not put enough stress, and that is the
present city administration, and especial
ly its chief, the Hon. B G. Adams, who
has been to the city and county of Gre
NADIA, what Geo. Washington was to his
country. He has been and is now, the
first to rise up in all his might to sup
press all evil matters, no matter from
what source they came; and the first to
bring about peace, no matter who re-
ceived its benefits, and the first in the
hears of the better class of people in and
around Grenada. He has been the friend
of the colored, and the companion Of the
whites. Nowato disabuse toe prtjddice
that may be in the minds of any one,
although we believe there are none with
such minds, ! wish to say to such just
give one glance at his past administra-
ton. To my many colored friends who
are legal voters in the city of GreDada, l
say lose no time but 60 Immediately and
register, after which seal up your hearts
to prejudice and when the voting day
comes in May, say without fear or favor
that the present incumbent shall know
no defeat. When that is done Grenada's
future will one day smile on your past
action. Let the present chief of police
be considered favorably.
From voter and former citizen,
D. d. SLEDGE.

HERNANDO, MISy,
Circuit Court In Sessfon--A Tribute to
an Oficia1.

Special Correspondence of the Avalanche.I
fernando, Miss, March 31.-The cir,
cult court finished its business for the
March term and adjourned on Saturday,
the Oath. This was an interesting and
important term, and attended by large
number OF spectators, as well as those
who were compelled to attend on account
of business: The criminal docket was
unusually interesting, as there hads been
three murders committed in the county
IN the last few months. The newly
elected district attorney, Capt J. j.
Slack, who is noted for his frank and
open manner and his warm apd generous
disposition, was promptly on hand when
court convened on the first day, and re.
NAMED at his post in the discharge of
his duty until the court adjourned on
Saturday. The captain has won the
admiration AID confidence not only of
the members of the bar and officials Of
the court, but also of the juries and peo-
pie. He STANDS upon that high plane
that a lawyer and district attorney
should stand upon. He represents the
state aby, efficiently and fairly, and not
only sees that the law is vindicated and
the guilty are punished, but be also
separates the innocent from the guilty
and protects them from persecution.
By doing this he saved the county several
hundred dollars at this term of court.
The captain is practical in his views is
true and as brave as a lion. With his
fierce energy and lofty ideas he is the
right man in the right place. He has
brilliant career before him and is one of
the rising luminares of Mississippi H.
G. Watson, John U. Foster, W. A. Percy,
Jr., and Judge Greer of Memphis, were
among the visiting attorneys.

When the Convention Monday night
came to the point of nominating Alder
men, the crowd was somewhat wearied,
and rushed some of the nominations
through without giving them that serious
thought that the occasion required, and
the result was there were too many
"wet" men on the ticket, and to which
our Democratic frend, Mr.. Bledsoe, took
exceptions, but the next day, when the
change was made, and he saw there was
no personal intention in it, he readily
acquiesced, and is now straight-out for
the whole ticket as it appears in this
issue. Both sides have shown a willing.
ness to do what is fair, and the result is
we have an Aldermanic ticket acceptable
to al! sides.
