The cotton receipts at Brookhaven
by country wagons for the commercial
year ending Sept. LIST, amounted to 3d.
254 bales. The year before, ending
Sept. l, '97, wos a record breaker, the
receipts being 1854 bales but the
season just closed leaps away ahead of
that and overlaps it by 7,4O0.
Nothing could show more conclusive
ly Brookhaven's growing Importance
as cotton market. This is due to the
location of a fine compress here, the
presence of foreign cotton buyers, and
above all, the reputation Brookhaven's
progressive business men are giving
her as a cheap market for the sale of
all kinds of goods. Every year here
after will witness gradual expansion
of our trade territory and liberal use
of printers ink is all that is required
to keep the ball rolling.
In addition to the wagon receipts,
the amount of cotton received by rail
and handled by the compress was
bales.

Rev. w. p. Price Resigns.

Rev. w. p. Price. pastor of the
Brookhaven Baptist Church, rendered
his resignation to the Church last
Sabbath, to take effect October LIST,
and In Difference to his request, the
same was regretfully accepted. Bro.
Price, who has been dividing his
time as pastor between the Baptist
churches at Brookhaven and Magnolia,
has lately received unanimous call
from the Winona church to move there
and serve it all his time, and in re-
Spouse to sense of duty, he felt con-
strained to accept the new field. He
has been pastor of the Magnolia church
five years and the Brookhaven church
nearly two. He is one of the most
talented, consecrated and conscien-
tious young ministers in the State,
and while here won many warm admir-
ers in and out of his own communion.
His sermon Sunday morning preceding
his resignation, delivered in the spirit
in which the Apostle Paul addressed
the Ephesian Elders in the 10th chap
ter of Acts, was strong appeal to the
church to unite and work together in
harmony for the glory of God, and
brought tears to many eyes.

A, Unknown Negro Killed.

The headless body OF negro man
was found in the railroad cut this side
of Hartman Sunday morning. 1nves-
tigation showed that he had been
struck by a south bound train Sunday
morning, near the section house, and
dragged along under the cars to the
point where the body was picked mp
The head appears to have been dragged
off by the cross ties. There was moth
ing about the body by which it could
be identified. Engineer Frank Jarvis
and his fireman testified before the
coroner's jury Monday that they were
running No. l Sunday morning and
saw the negro's body lying on the
track before the train struck 1t, but
did not recognize it as man. They
don't think he was then alive. The
body was caught and fastened under
the mail car, and the noise it made
humping along on the crossties alarm
ed the mail agent and caused him tc
ring down brakes, when it was discov
cred and taken out.

On last Thursday Sheriff Applewhite
and Constable Decell succeeded in eff
fecting the capture of Will Freeman,
the desperate negro who last winter
came so near killing Marshal Arid at
Bogue Chitto, while the marshal was
attempting to arrest him. Freeman
is under indictment for assault with
intent to kill and murder. He has
been lurking around Brookhaven for
some time, and the day he was cap
tured, he was located in one of the ne
gro cabins just east of Mr.. Womack's
He attempted to run, but when Sher-
iff Applewhite threw shot gun on
him, threw up his hands and surren'
dered.

LAUNCHING THE LIFE-BOAT.

There are greater dangers than those of
the angry sea. That dread disease-con-
sumption, kills more men and women in
generation than the sea has swallowed up
since the earliest history of navigation.
There is a sure and safe life-boat ever
ready to be launched for men and women
who suffer from this merciless destroyer.
1t is DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry. 1t cures % per cent. of all cases of
consumption, bronchitis, asthma, laryn-
gifts, weak lungs, splitting of blood and
throat and nasal troubles. 1t acts directly
on the lungs driving out all impurities and
disease germs. 1t soothes and heals the
mucous membranes of the lungs, bronchial
tubes, throat and nasal cavities. 1t restores
the lost appetite, makes digestion and as
sanitation perfect, invigorates the liver,
and purifes and enriches the blood. 1t
fills the blood with the life-giving elements
of the food that build new and healthy
tissues. 1t tears down, carries off and
excretes the diseased and half dead tissues
upon which the germs of consumption
thrive. 1t checks the cough and facilitates
expectoration until the lungs are thor
oughiy cleared. 1t is the great blood
maker and flesh builder. Unlike cod liver
oil, it does not build fiabby flesh, but the
hrm, muscular tissues of health. 1t does
not make corpulent people more corpulent
Thousands have testified to their cure
under this great medicine after they were
given up by the doctors, and all hope was
gone. An honest dealer will not suggest
some inferior substitute for the sake Of a
little extra selfish profit.

A CRITICAL TIME.
During the Battle Of Santiago.
SICK OR WELL, A RUSH NIGHT

The Packers of the Battle of Santiago de
Cuba Were all Heroes. Their Heroic
Efforts in Getting Ammunition and Ra-
tiOns to the Front Saved the Day.
P. E. Butler, of pack train No. 8
writing from Santiago, de Cuba, on
July %, says: "We all had diarrh9a
in more or less violent form, and when
we landed we had no time to see doc
tor, for it was case of rush, and rush
night and day to keep the troops sup
piled with ammunition and rations, but
thanks to Chamberlain's Collie, Chol-
era and Diarrh9a Remedy, we were
able to keep at work and keep our
health in fact, l sincerely believe that
at one critical time this medicine was
the indirect savior of our army, for if
the packers had been unable to work
there would have been no way of get
ting supplies to the front. There were
no roads that wagon train could use.
My comrade and myself had the good
fortune to lay in a supply of this medi
cine for our pack train before we left
Tampa, and know in four cases it alb
sOlutely saved life."

manufacturers of this medicine, the

Besides it's value as a fine cotton
market and place where all kinds of
goods can be bought cheap, THE LEAD
Err desires to invite the attention of its
country readers in this and adjoining
counties to few other considerations
which should commend Brookhaven to
them as trading point. We refer to
the ample stock sheds and camp &C.
commodations furnished free by sever
al of our leading merchants to those
who come here to trade. Messrs. r. T.
Scherck, John McGrath & Sons, M.
Priebatsch, Pfeifer d Dreyfus, Louis
Cohn and Bros. and F. II. Hartman, all
have good stock sheds where farmers
teams can be protected from the
weather day or night. There is good
public trough in front of the court
house, McGrath & Sons, A. c. Seavey
and others have good stock troughs
back of their stores where an alum
dance of fresh water is supplied at all
hours. Very soon the city will have
two large troughs placed on two of the
principal streets in the business cen
ter. In fact, plenty of water and as
fine water as there is in the world, is
one of the blessings of which Brook
haven is especially proud. John Nc
Grath & Sons, l.: Cohn 4 Bros, f. III
Hartman and others furnish special
quarters for their country customers
who are caught in town over night.
Thirty -one big electric street lamps
burn in the city all night, and there is
no need for strangers to go stumbling
round in the dark when they come
here.
On account of such conveniences as
| these-all free-traders from a dis
lance will always find it better tc
spend the night in Brookhaven than
camp on the roadside anywhere neal
by. If you don't know Brookhaven
come and spend day and night here
and see for yourself. Our word for il
you will be treated right.
