Brookhayen Highly Honored.

Brookhaven is to he highly honored this
year and her people Should appreciate the
fact accordingly. During the year four
important State bodies are to hold their
annual meetings here.
First will come the meeting of the State
w. C. I. U. in May.
Second, the Grand Lodge of the knights
aud Ladies of Honor in August.
Third, the Mississippi Presbyterian
Synod in November.
Fourth and lastly, but by no means
least, the Mississippi Methodist Confer
ence in December.
Each of these meetings will bring here
large number of the best, most cultivat-
cd and in Intelligent people of the State, and
the impressions made on them while here
will have much to do with Brookhaven's
future. All will have to be entertained
free, aud the well-earned reputation Of
our people for open handed hospitality
must not be allowed to suffer. And more
let all of our homes and streets and bust
ness hours be wearing the very best ap-
pearance possible. TO this end improve
ments of this kind may soon begin. We
have town to be proud of, and let III

The Farmers Alliance.

Rev. Thomas Dixon, Jr., says the
Farmers Alliance of America holds in
its hands not only the possibilities of
a higher life for this generatiOn-it
holds the hopes of unnumbered gen
erations yet unborn. Their organiza
ton is superb. 1t is the strongest
social and political machine built in
America in the last twenty years.
They are determined to lift up the
toiling hosts and make their life worth
the living. They are teaching and
will teach more emphatically than
ever, that it is just as honorable to
hew wood and draw water and pillow
mule, as to make laws, practice
medicine, run a bank or u railroad
They have doubtless many crude ideas
as yet about law and finance. But
whose fault is it that they are ignO-
rant They will learn as they go
long. Absdrd demands will take
reasonable shape in the red hot forge
of public debate and education.
Demagogues will mislead for time ;
but they will kill two demagOgues
where they nOurish one. Their only
danger lies in the possibility of selfish
intrigues in politics, in which their
lofty principles will be forgotten in Il
mad struggle for immediate power.
Holding fast to their principles, they
will sweep this nations ultimately III
triumph. They represent the grand :
est moral issues Of the age. Standing
firmly on those issues, they are as sure
to win as that God is, and that good
shall ultimately triumph over evil:
Let the demagogues, deadbeats and
bnmmers who are trying ever to learn
which way the wind blows that they
may trim their sails to meet it, take
warning! The cyclone has only be-
gun. They had better seek shelter.

COTTON SEED HULLs AS A STOCK


Few of tho farmers of Kinds county
know anything of the value of cotton
seed hulls as q feed for stock.
In the first place, bulls are cheaper than
any other known food. Second, stock
likes them, and will eat it in preference
to any other. Third, better results follow
their use. And, fourth, they are the pro-
duct of our own soil, are the results of
our own efforts, which cannot be said of
the bran add oats, and corn which we buy
from western men.
Testifying to the quality of cotton seed
bulls, "Sligo creamery" of jackson says: :
at is the best and cheapest food known
to u.s." r. +. McGill, steward at tho
State Lunatic Asylum, says: ut increas-
es the flow of milk, makes the milk rich
or, makes the butter both yellow and
firm" Col. Hemingway says: cit is the
best cattle food know of both for fatten-
ing and milk-producing qualities" Bird
song creamery, Jackson, says: "Both
the quantity and quality of the milk and
butter is improved by the use of hulls.-
Kinds County Gazette.
To such testimony as the above may be
added that of President Fitzhugb of
Whitworth College, Capt. s. d. Powell,
J. N. Cooke, DR.. Wesley Martin, the ed-
tor of the LEADER and other we'll known
citizens of Brookhaven who have used
cotton seed bulls as stock food with the
most satisfactory results. Mill men would
find it cheap and SPLENDID food for their
work oxen. GIVE cows or oxen as much
every day as they will eat clean with
about quart Of cotton seed meal to the
head poured over it, and they will keep
fat enough for beef with no other food.

The New 1. c. Schedule.

Some important changes in the sched-
ule of the /. C. Railroad went into effect
last Sunday, as will be seen by reference
to the corrected time table in another
column. Three passenger trains now pass
Brookbaven daily each way and, as here
tofore, we have double daily mail.
Going north No. 2 express arrives at li:s5
a. m, No. 46 (vestibule) at 3:43 p. M. and
No. AZ at 1924 p. m. Gong south trains
pass as follows: No. express 2:l7 p. M,
train No. Al at 1852 a. M. The vestibule
train going South at 4:19 p. IN. does not
stop at Brookhaven, so persons wishing
to 90 in that direction must either take
tho 2:17 p. m. train or the one that passes
at $50 a. M.
The trains with vestibule cars run
through from New Orleans to Chicago in
20 hours, and mark another important step
in the progress and enterprise of the great
I. C. system, which always aims to excel.

INHALED ESCAPING GAS.
Miss Jean Irwin FouOd in Her Room
AsDhyNiated.

A singularly sad event occurred on
the Island yesterday where cruel fate
sought as its victim the young and
promising daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Clarence Irwin, OF $50 North Front
street. She was aSphyxiated by illumi-
mating gas during the night. which, in
some unaccountable way, escaped from
the burner in her room, and when found
was beyond reSusitation, expiring some
two hours after.
Miss Jean Irwin, or Birdie, as She
was called by those who knew ana
loved her well, and they were many,
had been in the habit OF sleeping with
her elder sister, but as it happened on
Sunday night She occupied room by
herself. She had attended services at
ST. Luke's Episcopal Church in the
evening, OF which she was an honored
member, and upon her arrival home
read for while and retired about 10
o'clock. II is thought upon getting
into bed she must have left 4 small
flame in the gas burning which
from gust OF wind, which must have
blown through the crcyiccs somewhere,
went out, leaving the gas free TO escape
in the room. The windows were all
closed tightly, ~ was also the door, and
il is hard To see how sufficient draft
could have entered the room TO eXtln-
gulshed the lame, but from the many
cOnjecturcS. this seems To be the one
most considered.
She wa found by her sister who went
TO awaken her. about half-past eight
in the morning, and the awful discovery
was tragic IN the extreme. The alarm
flashed through the household, aud DR..
L. c. Myers was Immediately summone-,
who worked hard to save her life, but
without avail. At one time during the
application of restoratyeS she
appeared to breathe heavily for
a time and the situation looked favor
able, but it was soon evident that her
system was too much exhausted TO re
spOnd to anything that human aid and
skill could do, ami she passed away at
10 o'clock, surrounded at her bedside by
sorrowng relatives aud friends.
Miss Irwin was in her nineteenth
year, and was faVorite In wide circle
of acquaintances, ever winning friends
by her bright and happy disposition, her
gentle and kindly ways, and not alone
in the family circle to which she was
strongly endcarcd, but in the church
anu school as well was the sunshine OF
her presence kecnly felt. She was an
attendant at Miss Jennie Wilson's pri-
waite school, and was an apt and indie
fatigablc student. Few occurrences
havc cansed snrh a general regret.

that it is not surprising that the an
nounccment OF its opening packed the
Opera House in every part last night.
The old "FantaSma, according TO the
popular idea, had exhausted everything
possible ia stage trickery, but this idea
is soon diSsipated with a view Of the
elaborate stage setting and changes in
the New Fantasma." The Jules Verne
scene, ut the bottom Of the sea, in the
first act, is a very thrilling one. There
are number Of beautiful effects and
t&bleauX, the Pilots Daughter in partic-

immense auticnce. There are more
pieces of scenery. and heavier ones, than
in any other Of it's class GA the stage,
and each piece must work exactly - or
all will be spoiled. The company is a
