BRooKHAvEN GROWING.

Extensive improvements Planned--A Com
press, Cotton Ware House, Electri'
Lights, Canning and Ice Factories and
Creamery to be Established.
BRooKHAvEN, June GA joint stool
improvement company has just beer
organized here with an authorized cap
ital of 100000. The incorporators are
F. f. Becker, cashier of the CONNER
cial Bank; A. E. Moreton, an exten
sive lumber manufacturer and con
tractor; w. II. Seavey, J. w. McGrath
l.. Cohn and f. Bowsky, four of the
leading merchants and business men
of Brookhaven. A compress, a large
cotton warehouse, a canning factory
electric light plant, and an ice factory
are among the new enterprises the
company contemplate. The contract
was closed yesterday for a Webb steam
lever press, one of the latest improved
with capacity of 1000 bales of cotton
per day, and it is the purpose of the
company to have the compress and
warehouse ready in time to handle the
growing crop. During the fall or win
ter the electric light plant will be
started, and next season the ice and
canning factories will be put in opera
ton. The company already has ample
grounds, conveniently located, and all
of these industries will be grouped and
operated by the same steam power.
The people here are much elated at
this announcement, for the gentlemen
mentioned are among Brookhaven's
most enterprising and reliable business
men, with ample capital to carry out
their plans, and the early consumma-
ton of what they have undertaken is
virtually assured.
An Illinois gentleman with means
and experience has lately purchased a
900-acre stock farm adjoining the cor
porate limits of this city, and will es-
tablish creamery during the next few
months.
No town in Mississippi is more pros
porous or has brighter future than
Brookhaven, and her people are buoy
ant with hope.-Times-D Democrat Spe-
cidl.
The above welcome announcement
of Brookhaven's progress and bright
future speaks for itself. Summit, Kos
ciusko, and some other Mississippi
towns have lately invested in second
hand congresses, but Brookhaven's en-
terprising company decided to have the
newest and best made, SO selected the
Webb steam lever, the latest improved.
Messrs. Becker and Seavey will leave
for Maryland about the Goth of June
to examine the operations of the best
canning factories in that State and Sc
lect the necessary outfit for that en-
terprise, which will be built in ample
time for next years fruit and vegeta-
BILE crop.

Mr.. w. w. KEGS, of Fair River, an
nounces himself in this issue of The
LEADER as candidate for Treasurer
of Lincoln county, subject to the &C
ton of the primary election July Goth.
To those who do not know Mr.. KEGS
personally, The LEADER takes pleasure
in introducing him as member of
one of the oldest and most respectable
and worthy families of Lincoln coun-
ty. He is grandson of Isham KEGS,
one of the first settlers on Fair River,
and son of the late M. V. KEGS, for
years successful farmer and country
merchant of that community. Will
KEGS, as his friends call him, is good
book-keeper, holding a diploma from
the Capitol Commercial College, and
since his graduation has had several
years of practical business experience
in book keeping. In addition to this,
he is young man of the most exem-
plary personal habits and character.
Altogether it would be difficult to find
a young man more worthy of official
promotion, and if he is elected Treas
urer, the people may rest assured they
will have no cause to regret it.
