1t is gratifying to note the in
creasing rivalry shown each year
by the farmers OF Attala as to who
shall raise the finest hogs. That
such things sha.ql!I .1 B a mat
ter OF pride il very commondable.
We.oniy wish that we could have
annual county fairs 70 encourage
this rivalry rot alone in hog-rais
ing, but IN all kindsof stock as well
as cereal crops and other-.
But what we starte d
out to say was thot after a farmer
finds that he can raise fine hogs
(and all OF them cam he should
learn to make his pigs grow as fat
as possible. There is more mon.
ey IN a 3oo-pound pig at twelve
months old than there is in a two
year old 4oo-pou.d-r. Northern
packers who raise hogs extensive
ly for market never think of keen
ing pig past nine or twelve months
and they make them a great size at
that age. ], occurs to US that

THE EEWToWN ACADEMY.

The position of principal of the Acad. emy is not yet filled but the trustees arc in communication with several appli. cants, any one of whom would be con- petent for the place.
 Out of the large number of applica- tions received, some 40 or 50, the difficult ty is not to find a candidate but to decide upon the man best fitted for the particu- lar position here.
 The qualities most desired are sound scholarship, the power of imparting knowledge, good discipline, executive ability, gentlemanly bearing and high moral and religious character. The trus- tees ask the continued support and confi- dence of the public and can assure all that the educational work of the Acad- emy is intended and expected to surpass it's best record in all its past history.
 With these plans and purposes the trustees look for that support from the community and confidence in their choice of new principal which will be shown by large attendance of scholars at the opening of the school year in September. [George T. Linsley, president of the board of trustees.

THE LAWN PARTY NEXT WEEK.

You have noticed the lawn party which is to be given by the Young Ladies' Mis- sion Circle of the Congregational church on Wednesday of next week, July IF. Tables will be set on the lawn of Levi C.. Morris, and ice cream and cake will be served. There will also be many fancy articles both useful and ornamental, for sale, and home made candy in any quan- tity you please and certainly of the best quality. A lemonade we'll will be estab- lished, and, as the date is very near the middle of the summer, the weather will probably assure for this liberal patron age. The grounds will be open at four in the afternoon and continue open through the evening. If Wednesday prove stormy, ,postponement will be made till the next fair day. Chinese lanterns will guide the way for all who come.

THE NICHOLS CASE.

The postponed hearing of the ease of
 State against George M. Nichols, ac. cused of setting fire to s. B. Camps barn,
 was taken up Wednesday morning. It was the desire of the prosecutor, Attor- ney Beecher, to have the case tried be- fore another justice, as it was the pur- pose of the State to introduce ideutics lily the same evidence as was offered at the Coroett hearing on Monday, and the prosecuting attorney could not see how the court could do anything but dis charge Nichols without stultifying itself, hence he desired, if the court would so elect, to have some other justice called in. The defendants counsel, W. A.. Leonard, could not see why there should be any change of justice, as the court had already sat on the case twice and ob- iected to any such action being taken. Justice Cavanaugh insisting on his right to hear the case, Attorney Beecher en- tered nolle. In the case of State against Michael Corbett, charged with theft and injury to private property at Lawrence Mitchell's house, last October, Justice Dayton was called in, but declined to hear the case unless sitting with some other justice, and as Justice Cavanaugh preferred not to hear the case, a nolle was also entered by the prosecution.

THE LANTERN FESTIVAL
A SOCIAL AND FINANCIAL SUCCESS.

The lawn party or lantern festival of St Johns church, held at J. H. Warmers pleasant grounds at the Hook on Tues day evening, was delightful occasion. The threatening weather of the early evening kept some away, but fully 200 were present to enjoy the beauty of the scene. The lawn was gaily decorated with lanterns and transparencies of all descriptions. The premium offered for the most unique light was won by Mrs Alfred Briscoe, her creation being transparency of the figure of woman, sleeves and all, and it was appropriately named "The belle of the evening"" The judges for the occasion were Messrs Charles Beresford, Edward Minor and Mir Harding. The tableaux and fairy scenes, in charge of Mrs Alfred Briscoe, Mrs W. B. Sniffen and Miss Jennie Bris- COG, passed off very finely and were very enjoyable. The lantern drill was a very pretty sight. During the evening the or chestra dlscoursed sweet music, which added to the attractions. The cream and cake was sought after and was all dispos- ed of. Those who were fortunate in be- ing in attendance pronounced it a decided success.

Wish everybody knew two things: what sort of shoes he or she had better get; and sec ond, what we are doing here for those who think a little on what they do with their feet. About the first of these things it is hard to say much. "What's one mans meat is another mans poison" applies to women too, and to shoes in a certain way. So do your own thinking, but do it. Don't go on without thinking. That's the main thing after all. If we can only get you to think ing.
 But what are we doing for those who do their own think ing? We stand for everything even back to the goat or the cali that grew the skin. We take whatever E Sblame there is for everything; we profess to know our business, our stock, our shoes. If we ldon't, why, make us pay for our impl'- dence.
 Look to us, then, for good shoes. Forgive us just a lit tie on everything; only a lit tie bit. Expect almost per lection. That is what we are doing for the men and .women who think and give us a chance.
