preparations for his family, who will
join HIM in few days.
On last press day. and just as we
had finished that iaborious work,
Master Binion White brought us
liberal supply of delicious ice
cream and cake--a treat sent by
some thoughtful ladies of the Bap-
fist Aid Society lunch stand. Thanks,
fair ladies'; the delicacles arrived at
the most opportune moment for
hearty enjoy ment.
Hon. j. NJ. Shivers left Monday
morning for Jackson via New Orr
leans, where he goes to represent
Pearl River county in the leglsla-
ture. Capt. Shivers is a patriotic,
progressive Mississippian, and we
have no doubt but what his legisla-
tive labors and vote will prove per-
fectly satisfactory to his Pearl Riv-
er county constituents.
Col. G. w. Halls railroad shows
gave two exhibitions w Wednesday
of last week. The performances
from beginning to end were very
good, and we're so conducted as not
to offend the sensibilities of the
most fastidious. The attendance
was large and the order perfect; in
fact Col. Hall remarked to us that
he was highly pleased in every re-
spect with his visit to Poplarville.
Poplaryille needs an ice depot,
and in connection Herewith & soda
water and ice cream parlor. Sever
al gentlemen contemplated en-.
gaging in the business, but de-
clined on account of the excessive
tax. Ice and cold drinks are cons
sidered necessity in this climate
during the summer months, and it
would be we'll to look into the legal
features of this prohibitive tax on
respectable business pursuit.
