1t is sincerely to be hoped that the

ings III Congress providing that the
Federal Government shall assume con-
troll of the Mississippi river IN its en-
tirety, aud proceed itself to carry oD
all needed works of protection snd
improvement, untrammelled by any
State, district or levee board, may he
enacted into law just as speedily as
may be. We verify believe that if it
is enacted into law, and ali works
undertaken as contemplated by 1t, il
will prove the salvation of tho lower
Mississippi valley, and remove all
dangers from disastrous floods for all
future time. The progress of this
wise aud benefcient measure before

watched by millions of Interested peo-
pie, all of whom will pray for Its sue

BIED.

AT her home in Greenwood, Miss.
on Tuesday, April 27th, MRS. LULA
PENNY MCDONALD.
Tne death of this beautiful and be-
loved young woman has brought sor.
row to two whole communities
Greenwood, her home in later years,
and GrsenviIle, the heme of her child
hood, in which she grew to the beau
tiful womanhood which has been so
sorroWfully cut short. The express
sion of grief so universally heard, 10
both profound and sincere. Te the
many who have known her during all
her life-alas! so short-it is needless
to recount the numberless graces
which eudeared her to all who came
within the circle of her influence. To
loveliness of person she jolned an
amiability and sweetness of character
aud charm OF manner which made her
as nearly perfect as is given in the life
below, and awakened in those who
knew her far deeper ana stronger
interest and regard than is usual in
the ordinary social relations of life
Thus, among her friends who have
watched her holy and beautiful life
from childhood TO the time of parting,
het death is not only the sorrow of
family circle, but grief which clouds
the lives of many who loved her with
no claim of kindred. Sorrow for
their own loss is intensified to keenest
pain of sympathy for the anguish
which must be borne by the devoted
mother, whose only remaining earthly
tie is snapped, Hers Is a grief so ter
rible that words of consolation are
worse than vain and even tho kuowl-
edge thai her grief is 80 deeply shared
2sn only have the effect of adding to it.

CRIMSON AND GREEN.

There Is blood on the face of the Ohio
moon, and the queen of the night as she
rolls over the Buckeye State Is sending
through a sulphurous atmosphere en-
sanguined rays that tinge social circles
in Washington and New York, and in
the latter city merge with a distinct
green. And all on account Of the coro-
nation Of the Car. At that dazzling
function a son of the late General John
A. Logan made his entire appareled in
the uniform of an officer Of the Ohio
State militia, zone of whom there APP
pears no doubt he IS which," General
Alexander McCook, OF New York, repre-
senting the United States by special
commission, and his brother. John Nc
Cook, also wore uniforms on the occa-
sion. The McCooks, it seems. declared
that Logan had no right TO don uni
form, and Logan, retorting In kind, made
the same declaration about tho McCooks.
Considerable III feeling was aroused. and
as a result Logan has sent sort Of
pistols and coffee letter TO General Nc
Cook, which, we are informed, has stirred
w dsHilBtOu ->tW 1Oih spS.NNy ~
its centre.
Why the McCooks should have made
the charge and the matter should have
raised such storm will be a puzzle 10
any man who has not had the good for
tune TO swap a circus ticket for sight
OF one Ohio militia officer in full
martial toggery. But any man who has
had that good fortune will understand
the situation thoroughly. and viii sym
pathIze with the McCooks from the soles
of his boots. He will be able TO appre-
ciate thoroughly the deep humiliation
the two Macs experienced upon being
brought into competition with a full
iiedged officer OF the Ohio State militia.
and will even reflect the verdant hue
that must have dyed their countenances
ever slnce the coronation. Solomon in
all his glory was never arrayed as a
militia officer Of tho realm OF Foraker
There Is nothing comparable to such an
officer, either In rcsplendcncy OF trap
pings or exhibition OF self-importancc.

struction, and Of the highest speed, and
the programme is said 10 be Japan's an
swer 10 the Russian aggressive policy

may he stated that Russia expects TO

programme involving the expenditure OF
no less than 500 co., 900 on ships of war;
a considerable proportion Of which Will
