This interesting exhibition Of WAX
works daily attracts a crowd Of spec
tators, and public appreciation of the
show has been qualification to It's own
ers. All who have seen the collection
express themselves as we'll pleased aud
more than repaid for the small outlay
The scenes represent the interior OF a
Turkish, ,harem with the sleeping beauty
aud her black attendant. BY some
mechanical contrivsnce tho bosom OF
the reclining figure Is msdc to rise
and fall IN very lifeliko manner.
Another scene represents the dead
President of France, Carnot, lying in
state another the execution OF his
murderer, Santo By the guilloiine. A
very striking scene Is dying soldier
with bis wounded comrade and q
sister of mercy by his side. Tho ex-

is the alteration of the infant Saw

HEEKLT A SUGGESTION.

In these days Of overpoweFing taxes
and seant currency it Is very inconsid-
erais and Ill timed to threw the eity's
small deficiencies into the peoples
teeth. We all lock for the resnrrse-
tion, aud are living in 4 state Of sns-
pense 10 that end. We have hope IN
still. Some Of US have very little else
TO live on. But this little article il
not going to be a moral lecture or q
jsremlad; merely suggestion.
The sidewalks Of GresnsilIe (waaf
there is lett OF thsm) are in q coBdi-
tion far more dangerous and disrepa-
table than no sidewalks at all. 1t is
net necessary to call snyene's stten-
ton to this fact. Ii is called every
night, as be blunders homeward over
mud and broken pIsnks. The ineffi-
cheney Of the plank sidewalks has been
very clearly demonstrated While
they are new, they are satisfactory. it
Is true; but after year or tive Of
service they are worse than no walks
81 all. On the retired streets they are
regularly used by negroes for fuel,
making il impossible 30 keep them in
repair.
There Is a piece of sidewalk in front
of Mr.. G. w. Noce's properly on Pop
lar Street, which might serve as a
hint to the city. 1t is about 4 feet
wide, block in lesgth, and is made
Of cinders from the electric light plant.
This walk, Mr.. Noce claims, cost alto
gethsr 81, and is perfectly satisfactory.
The same extent OF plank walk would
have cost about $40. The walk OF
cinders has the additional merit OF
lasting indefinitely, with occasional
trifling repairs. Ia the present condi-
tion OF the city there are many people
who cannot build regulation plank
walk, TO whom one OF this description
would be easy. The recent amend
ment TO the city charter gives the
authorities power to enforce the re-
pairing or laying Of walks, or TO have
them built Of whatever material may
be deemed proper, making the same q
charge upon the property. Ii the
supply of cinders should be found IN.
adequate the same Stag used in filling
Walnut Street would be good sub
stitule, aud would make cheap and
lasting sidewalk.

After a long search and frequent
battling, the police have at last sue
ceeded iu capturing Griffin Pearson,
the professional sneak thief who for
months past has made his living out
of the Government Fleet. His method
was TO steal Often, and a little at a
time, clothes being preferred by him,
and In this way he has at various
times succeeded III relieving the off,
GERS Of the fleet of a considerable
amount OF wearing apparel and money
found in pockets. A number of ar
rests have been made, and the thief
himself finally aroused the suspicion
of the police by the active interest
he displayed, aud his anxiety to have
other men arrested. He was captured
on the steamer Ruth, aud quite largo
amount of the stolen goods found in
his possession. At the trial be pleaded
guilty TO the several charges brought
against him, aud the penalties assessed
will smsuut to about three years at
the farm. He was heavily armed, but
attempted no resistance.

Some Allowances.

EDITOR TIMES:
Some friend sent me copy Of The
TIMES. AS an ex-momber of the
board have always taken an interest
in county affairs. As you remark
your list of delinquent land presents
a woful showing. Unlocking over the
allowances of the Board of Supervi-
sors [ see:

Weiss, Straus g. Co., clothing
for Jail, 1925
G. A. Clark, medicine for Jail, 1855
Skinner Pharmacy, 4" 500
The allowances speak for themselves,
but it occurs to the writer that the
taxpayers had better kept that money
to have bought SHOES aud clothing for
themselves. The present Board would
have allowed you horse hire for
Worlham's Texas ponies, without any
sort of hesitation. When we failed to
find any law for the allowance, you
we're equal TO tho emergency-went
to the Legislature and had law
passed allowing registrars hire for
their horse in addition to the per diem.

II IA remarkable how the taxpayers
of Mississippi--tss white people
have supported the public schools,
without discrimination against the
blacks, who resped greater benefits in
dollars aud cents than the whites,
without murmur or complaint. But
there is no lane, however long, that
has no turn, and protest is now be-
ing raised along this line. The North
Mississippi Herald, on this important
subject, says:
"There are at present $4,000 edu-
cable children IN the state Of Mlssis-
sippi. or these 100000 are white aud
$4,000 are black, or there are 100000
more blacks than whites. Now, who
pays the taxes IN Mississippi, the par
ents of the white children ? The
question needs only 10 be asksd to bo
answered. For the last thirty years
tho whites have been paying the bulk
Of the taxes until now, millions of dol
lars have been applied to the educa.
ton of the colored youth of our State.
We ask, Is it fair for the whites to
continue longer to educate, not only
an equal number Of blacks to whites,
but 100000 more than the whites ?
AS the law now operates II frequently
happens that In those counties where
the blacks predominant the public
schools In the country are run
five and six months, while the
white counties run only three aud
four months. Again, the poll tax,
which Is applied to school purposes, /,
now rarely paid by the colored man,
and thus this amount OF taxes Is still
diminished. All have noticed how
conspiciously absent he Is from the
polls on election days. He prefers, or
many of them do, to forfeit his right
to vote rather than pay the So poll
tax. Ii seems 10 us that the whites
have borne the burden about loug
enough. The remedy Is simple: Let
the amounts paid as taxes by the two
races be kept separate. Let the
amount paid in by tho whites be ap-
piled TO the education of the white
children and the amount by the blacks
to the education of the black child
rep. Also let The appropriations be
made on the same basis. Let our
candidates for both houses of the leg
islature take up this matter and fully
discuss II In the coming campaign. ID

Mississippi is the only State In the
Union which seems TO spend too much
money for education. The people
there have gone to extremes. They
are rather proud of their distinction

TIE NICARAGUA CANAL BILL.

We visa that the passage OF thi'
bin by the Senate could be reasonably
regarded as ensuriHg its speedy enact
nent into law. For the benefits aud
advantages It would confer upon the
commercial world in general aud the
States of the Mississippi Valley in par
ticular, are many and vast. 1t would
in effect be giving the Mississippi
river an outlet ia the Pacific ocean
multiplying by millions the consumers
aud purchasers ofthc agricultural pro.
ducts of us citizens.
Some surprise has been expressed by
State papers that nearly every Senator
OF the sectien chiefly to be bensfittsd,
voted against tho Nicaragua Canal
bill. II seems, if we are correctly in.
formed, that this opposition grew out
of fear that the provision for re-
endorsement of the outlay of the

wrestle with the big plantation and
its drawbacks awhile-but the read is
one which has but one ending.
We have no issue to take with our
correspondent. The forbidding inHu-
ence of the negro is all that be says it
Is. But we do not believe this dark
cloud to be proof against the force of
progress. 1t win in Destinyis own
time, be dispeled and rolled away by
the radiations of civilization-dlrected
and enforced BY Caucasian energy
and genius.
Such are the resources OF the land
that the pressnes of the negro race,
even IN such numbers as they NOW exist
will be no barrier to the speedy act
tement of the country by the whites
after the tide onco sets in. Tho me-
groes havo Except in isela,ed cslcs)
obtained no hold ON tho land. They are
becoming mere aud mora q floating,
drifting population OF nonads, moving
oapriciously from point 10 point, and
attached to no particular locality by
ties OF interest. Every possible oppor-
tunity has bean given them to acquire
property, to Become educated, to make
sslfsustsining citizens. Except in rare
instances they have failed totally of
this test. This is said in no spirit of
censure or i'll will. For their short
comings they are blsmeless. As
lsborsrs, when firmly governed and
squitably treated, they are satisfactory
more 40 to native land owners than
any white lsborcrs could ever be. The
mistake has been TO dsvolve upon
them too great degree of centrol Of
business Affairs and vocstions; = mis-
tsks which las brought them to sqnalor
aud the country TO bankruptcy. Their
capabilities and limitations having be-
come fully known under this misguld-
cd test, they will either give way, or
take some proper place in the future
economic aud harmonious adjustment
OF farming conditions. For the indus
trious and orderly there will always
bo room aud demand for their labor
whether the country change hands
aud conditions or not
AS to tho loan companles-their
necessities and the experiences they
will gather as the plantations fall to
them will fit them potentially to help
to a solution of the problem. But il
we were their sdviser.-impressed by
the depressed and collapsed condition
of planting, Its more than doubtful
future-we would urge them TO defer
occupancy until bona fide purchasers
were found. ANY general policy of
foreclosure for non payment Of inter-
est with q view to running plantations
through agents, or without clear cou-
clusions as 10 what is to be done with
them, will prove costly and ruinous.
1t cannot be otherwise. In this case,
to avoid or postpone such load, no
man who will keep up taxes aud im-
provemcuts ought TO be sold out. Let
him hapg on until satisfactory sue
cessor Is secured. Such we believe is
the feeling and the policy of the loan
companies. Aud whenever ihey can
by reducing the rate of inIeres! en-
courage debtors TO hold OH and con-
tinue the struggle for liquidation, such
concession villas the alternative OF
noseession-be proved wise.
