30 TRIAL RACES OFF NEWPORT.

Newport r. l., Feb lc.-The scheme to have the
trial yacht races off his port has been abandoned
This decision reached partly because II was
learned indirectly from headquarters Of the New
Yors, Yacht Club that the Cup Committee would
hardly favor racing any course save that 10
be sailed in defence OF the cup. IL is probable that
a Newport cup Will be offered a trophy for a
race Of sloops of Brentons Reef In August pro-

Last years demand for our Leader was
so large that we were unable to manufac-
ture them as fast as they were ordered.
This year we have one mammoth factory
that manufactures nothing but this line,
and we are making this boot in such
immense quantities that we are able to
produce a much better boot.
We have many new improvements in
This line: first, ii is made of heavy gen.
uine Dongola, solid leather sole and inner
sole: second, it has leather cock lining,
which no other but high-priced boot
has third, it has back-stay fourth, as
much care is taken in selecting this stock,
and in making, as in our higher-priced
goods; fifth, we not only warrant but we
guarantee every line to be just as repre-
sented. The above cut is an exact copy
of the boot itself.

DIR. Flowers Writes to Correct Some of
the wild Rumors Anoat
EDITOR LEADER see il stated in
your issue of the Sd inst. that | have
reported two cases of small pox near
this place. That is mistake, as
have reported only one. The alleged
case you mention five miles north of
this place was not small pox, and was
never called to see him. There is a
well-developed case of that dreaded
malady just across the line in Amite
county, but owing to the prompt and
efficient action of DIR. Bates, health of
ficer for Amite county, the place has
been put under strict quarantine and
there is little cause for alarm on the
part of the public, lest there should be
an epidemic. 1t is very probable 9TH
er cases will develop in the infected
family, but we hope to confine it there.
The public need not pay any attention
to the many false rumors in circula-
ton about small pox in this vicinity.
For the sake of those who may be in
terested in the matter | will agree to
give your readers from time to time
reliable report of the facts as they may
develop. Respectfully yours,
HENRY FLOWERS, M. ID.

"a town." says the Vicksburg Post,
"is like family. We are all interest
ed in each others welfare, or should
be. A cut-throat, every man for him
self policy, means ruin for any commu-
nifty. 1t means retrogression and fail
ure. The first lesson any family must
learn, to be happy and successful, is
unity and mutual assistance. The
same applies to the business life of
town, and the more generally it is
obeyed the more abundant will be the
towns prosperity. Stand by each 9th
er and patronize the home folks"
