board, but now largely owned by cor

1t has been customary for successive
legislatures to confirm these titles for
the past ten years. The constitutional
convention followed suit and trumped.
The levee board has employed good
lawyers to advise it that the title to
these lands is in the levee board; hence
the suit for possession. An empire is at
stalle, and If the levee board wins it
will make it the richest corporation, as
tho suit will be brought for millions of
dollars for trees cut for lumber and

SOUTHERN GLEANlNGS.


Il. A. Mitchell, of Gadsden, Ala, su-
perintendent of the Dwight cotton fac
tories there which were erected at a
cost Of 100000, while in St. Louis, the
other day, said to reporter: Iam on
my way to New England to study the
methods in vogue in the large # 'ories
OF that section for the manufac .ure OF
finer quality OF cotton goods. The
New Englanders have many new pro
cesses that are far ahead of those in the
south for the manufacture OF fine
cloth. Gadsden. and in fact the entire
state OF Alabama, should be one OF
the greatest manufacturing sec
tions in the country. We have al
most every known facility for the
work, and should be able to manufac-
ture almost anything at much less cost
than in the north. The state abounds
in coal and fuel; we have water power
and almost unlimited transportation
advantages, both by rail and water.
The country is rapidly building up now,
and before long hope to see Alabama
one OF the greatest states in the Union
in the way Of manufactured stuff. And
Gadsdcn will some day be one of the
greatest cities in the southern terri
tory. There is a steady boom in pro-
gress, and the town is rapidly growing
up and being inhabited by hard work.

DlABOllCAL MURDER.
A Con- nvicted Thief Kills In Cold Blood the
Man Whom He Formerly Robbed.

MACON, Ca, Sept ia special to
the Telegraph from Valdosta, Ca,
says:
1.-The story OF the killing Of Sam
Parker, a well-known citizen of Cecil,
at Hahira, yesterday morning by Shell
ton Dampicr, shows it TO have been
| Que of the blacliest crimes that has
ever stained the criminal annals of
this county.
The story received here is to the eff
feet that Parker was on his way to
church, and had stopped on the street
to talk to some gentlemen, Dampier
being in the crowd. After a few min
utes, conversation the crowd began to
break up and Parker, Dampier and the
town marshal were left alone. Dam
pier drew his pistol at this juncture,
and putting it against the bosom OF
Parker, fired one shot The ball
passed through Parker's heart and he
sank to the ground without word, dy-
ing Instantly.
Turning to the marshal, Dampicr
I
waved his pistol in his face and deted
MIN, threatening TO kill him if he
moved. The desperate then turned
and made his escape.
Telephone messages were sent to this
city after dogs, with which to trace
the murderer, but they could not be
sent, rs the sheriff of Brooks county
had them tracing fugitive there.
Every effort will be made however, to
capture Dampier.
The cause of the tragedy is said to
date back three years, when Dampier
was prosecuted for stealing some meat
from Parker. Dampier was convicted
and sent 10 the chain gang. He swore
vengeance at the time, declaring that
he would kill Parker on sight il he was
released or when his term expired. His
sentence expired six or seven months
ago. Yesterday was the first time that
he and Parker had met since. Parker
was known rs u peaccable citizen, and
leaves wife and seven or eight chill
dren to mourn his tragic death. Dam
pier was young man of rather up'
savory reputation.

The LAW Is EanlfY.

The legislature that passed the law
to license hop ale joints certainly pre-
pared the way for the establishment of
of saloons in ambush. 1t is violation
of the law to sell hop ale, as the way
they have been going after the joint
keepers at Greenwood Jackson and
Meridian shows, but why-the law says
a license shall be issued to parties to
sell hop ale and then affixes penalty
for selling of any malt liquors-we can
not understand. The wrong lies with
the legislators who enacted the law.
We think the law against the selling of
it should be strictly enforced, and the
sooner any community is rid of these
ambush saloons the better.

tiles Confident that They Can Keep the
nreasc Under Control and that There IL
NeDanger of nh Epidemic.
Wv ORLEANS Sept IL. Shortly be-
fore noon to-day the board of health
ofliqally declared six OF the suspicious
cases of fever on st. Claude street to be
yellow fever. A couple Of hours sub
sedaently the board announced another
pronounced case of yellow fever AT
Mira and Esplnnade streets, in the
lower part of the city, bnt mile or
moe from the infected square. The
announcement OF the first six cases of
yellow fever was not unexpected, al
though it was hoped from the delay
ON the part OF the experts, that these
cases were simply of bilious malaria.
No general alarm has resulted here,
although the news rapidly spread
through the city. The authorities do
not believe that the situation is ma
terially worse than it was four or five
days aso, aud they are still confident
of their ability with modern sanitary
appliances, to successfully quarantine
the infected district.
The official bulletin of the board of
experts, declaring the st. Claude-street
cases to be yellow fever, was receive d
by President Oliphant soon after II
o'clock. DR.. Oliphant Immediately sent
for members of the press and gave out
the report, which was signed by Drs
Lemonnier, Toutre, Bickham, Petit
and Parham of the board of experts
and DR.. Devron the attending physi
clan. The report was as follows:
"We, the undersigned physicians
who, from time to time, have examined
the 12 cases of fever on st. Claude
street, between Clouet and Louisa
find six to be yellow fever, four OF
whom are convalescent, There are nc
other cases"
OF the II original cases, all of which
had their origin from case that had
come from Ocean Springs, the siA

this afternoon to be PRACTICAL,

homes. OF the six pronounced yellow
fever cases. four are convalescent an
two were declared to be critically i'll
