Another Delightful College Musicale.

Another delightful Piano-forte Reel
tai was given at the College on last
Saturday evening by the pupils of
Miss Sturdevant. Before we praise
the pupils, we must pay homage to
their accomplished instructor, whose
name, like the music she has wrought,
will thrill through the cadence of flu
ture years and inspire others to that
proficiency which a master-hand like
hers alone can reach. The pupils on
this occasion were Misses Aileen Howell
and Maggie Lilly, the latter miss of
thirteen, who evinced remarkable tai
ent and progress and the careful
training her teacher had bestowed up
on her. Miss Howell's selections were
choice and well rendered, and her en-
tire repertoire, consisting of selections
from Beethoven, Chopin and other
standard composers. was executed en-
tirely from memory. Miss Estelle
johnson, contralto, charmed all with
her sweet voice and attractive man
ner. "For all Eternity" with violin
obligato by Miss Ida Rose, was espe-
cially we'll received.

Will Not Leave whitworth Yet.

President Fitzhugh, of Whitworth
College, has purchased "Belhaven,' the
elegant home of Col. j. S. Hamilton,
at jackson, with % acres of land at
tached, and in due time will convert
the property into a first-grade female
college. A reporter of THE LEADER
learned from President FitZhugh yes
terday that the publication made in
the jackson and other papers to the
effect that the new college will be
opened next September is premature.
1t is his plan to continue in
charge of Whitworth College for
at least one more collegiate year,
taking ample time to erect necessary
buildings and add all needed improve
ments to his new purchase, and the
new school will not be opened before
September, 1894. Brookhaven will re-
greet to lose him even then, but the
feeling of surprise and regret which
the announcement of our Jackson con-
temporaries at first created, will be
somewhat palliated by this agreeable
assurance.

A LETTER FROM KINDS,
Editor Mississippi Leader:

'%"'oI "Isslsslpp Leader:
have been thinking ever since l re
celved the first number of The LEADE r
after its suspension, that l would &C
knowledge the receipt Their eof, ..and tell
you how glad was made to see its
clean face among my mail. There has
been such vitiated taste cultiv ated
among our newspaper-reading people
that it calls almost exclusively for such
as we find in most of the great dailies
that flood the country. 1t seems that
instead of publishing such. things as
as are elevating to moral charact er
and enlightening to the mind, the aim
is to corrupt the one and mis-
lead or blind the other. There is
crying demand for reform in the
moral tone of the press of our country.
could give many reasons why, but
notice that great many people are
awakening to the fact The country
people are quiet but they are reading,
thinking and talking. There is power
in thought. Thought is a cyclone, a
revolutionist. 1t is the hope of our
reform movement. It should be the
chief aim of our reform papers to
awaken and stimulate thought. Get
our people to thinking and scales of
ignorance will begin to fall from their
eyes, and let in the light of reason;
and then they cannot be made the
dupes Of designing demagogues.
Our sub-Alliance held an'open meet
ing on the last Saturday in April at
Rural Academy. 1t was well attended,
and highly enjoyed by all present. The
exercises consisted of select Rotations,
essays and remarks by some of the
brethren. Our lady membership are
alive to the aims and purposes of our
grand order. They realize that what
will benefit and bless the farmer will
also benefit and bless his wife or
daughter or sweetheart.
Our Alliance is non-partisan, as all
Alliances should be, but it is intensely
political. 1t cannot afford to belong
to any political party to be used as a
tool. But it has the courage of its
convictions, and will vote for it's de-
mands in whatever party they are
adopted.
Our Alliance heartily endorses the
demands of the National Council at its
last annual meeting, and will stand by
them through thick and thin. The
farmers of the country, to a man,
should rally to and stand by the Farm
erS' Alliance as the most powerful
agency that is working for their eman-
cipation from the heartless clutches of
the money power.
The Farmers Alliance is the great
training school for the young and the
old of our country. Many of our old
men are turning away from blind par
tisanism, and hero worship as of yore,
and are exercising that freedom of
thought, conscience and action for
which their fathers fought If the AL
lance does it's work properly, the
young men of our country will not be
entrapped as their fathers have been.
Let every Alliance man arouse himself
to action. Let those not in the Order.
come in, and soon the farmers and la
borers of the country will shake the
shackles of financial slavery from their
limbs. and walk forth free men,-God
A1mighty's noblemen, as they are.

UNCLE SAM AFTER THEM.
The Federal Court Takes n Hand In
breaking up Whitecaps In Lincoln.

The Federal Court Takes Hand In
breaking up whitecaps in Lincoln.
Sheriff McNair and Deputy U. S.
Marshal Willoughby, arrived in the
city yesterday with nine whitecaps,
men charged by the Federal grand
jury with conspiracy; that is, run
ming settlers off homestead lands.
Judge Niles admitted them to bail in
the sum of 800, but through the in
strumentality of Judge Chrisman, the
amount of the bond was reduced to
$3.50 EACH
Mr.. A. G. McNair, attorney for the
men, was in town this morning, fixed
up the bonds and other necessary pa
pers, and they all returned to their
homes this morning, sadder but wiser.
The prisoners were Perry Price, Ben
Price, Dan Price, Sam Boyd, Curtis
Boyd, June Boyd, Will Greer,
Lee Greer and Turner Bowie, the lat
ter not being present but under arrest
at Brookhaven, and permitted to make
bond there.-CiariOn Ledger, Nay nth.
A reporter of THE LEADER has been
shown a copy of the indictment by
Attorney A. G. McNair, defendants
counsel, and it recites, among other
things, that on the night of Dec. Z,
1892, the above named persons, with
others whose names to the grand jury
were unknown, entered into conspir-
acy and went in disguise to the house
of Esau Harness, a United States
homesteader, and by intimidation and
threats, interfered with him in the ex-
ercise and enjoyment of the rights
guaranteed to him under the homestead
laws of the United States. Nearly all
of these indicted men were members
of the White Cap mob that came into
Brookhaven, which, to say the least of
it, proves that Uncle Sam is on very
warm trail and is likely to "tree" his
game at the next court.
Harness is negro and his home
stead is in Southern Lincoln.

dinance to take effect from and after

T. FL. Lewis was appointed a commit
tee to have the doors of the public

to the requirement of 20SS of the
Code of 1892.
The contract for the city printing
for the ensuing year was let to !. For

WHITE CAPS AND BLIND TIGERS.
What the Grand Inquest Had to Say
About Them.

"hat the Grand Inquest Had TO say
About Them.
The following extract from the final
report Of the Lincoln Grand Jury will
prove of general interest and embraces
all that was said under the headings
mentioned:
The greater portion of our time has
been consumed in the investigation of
White Cap offenses, and while we have
returned bills against large number
of persons, there are still many impli-
Gated, who, from lack of sufficient evil
idence, have not been indicted. Our
investigations have led us to the con-
clusion that many so-called White Cap
outrages are purely local, and have been
committed by persons outside of any
regular organization, who to crafty
their own selfish purposes, commit Of
lenses, well knowing that under exist
ing circumstances the White Cap ele-
ment will receive the blame for theix
lawless acts.
In chasing the blind tiger we have,
to considerable extent, succeeded in
making the animal open his eyes, and
firmly believe that under ordinary cir
cumstances and less exciting times we
could not only exterminate the full
grown beast, but could strangle the
whelps. We are pleased to report that
the good citizens of Lincoln county
have shown a zeal and determination
in this matter that speaks volumes in
their praise, and with the full infection
of the penalty on such offenses, we be-
lieve that the day is not distant when
this hydra headed monster will be
thing of the past.

Judge Chrisman, the hero of the
hour, is in jackson this morning
among his friends as quietly as if he
had done nothing extraordinary in
checking the mob of white caps at
Brookhaven. He talks about the Incl
dent in his usual modest way, and says
he doesn't want all the glory, for others
did equally as much as himself; that
he only did his duty as any man should
have done under similar circumstances.
