one Of the mosteXpenaiye stretches

Prompt Settlement.

A remarkable example O.
prompt and satisfactory settlement
OF an insurance claim, refectine
credit alike on the company ane
its agent, was afforded here tbis
week by the cashing of check IT
favor of the benefciaries of the
late J. S. Mcdonald thronoh
Wheatley & Gwin, insurance
agents. The amount of the policy
was $4,000, total amount Of
premiums paid $237.21. The
proofs were mailed from Green
vile on Friday, March 4th. to the
Michigan Mutual Lite Insurance
Company, of Detroit. The check
was dated March 7th, and was re-
ceived in Greenville and the claim
paid on Wednesday, March 9th.
This is probably one of the
quickest insurance transactions for
SO important an amount on record,
Mr.. George Wheatly left for
Greenwood on the same dav to
turn over the amount to the estate
of Mr.. Mcdonald.
Delays IN the settlements of life
insurance claims are the rule. and
are productive, in many cases. of
much annoyance and loss: but
his transaction makes a notable
exception of the Michigan Mutual
md its Greenville agents, Mes
RS WhSatly and Gwin.

alusT For EuN.n.

On Tuesday night a passenger
train and sleeper going north OF
the Y. & M. V. road was thrown
from the track near Livingstone
but by amiracle no lives were lost,
On Thursday Josh Taylor Shar'
key logan, Eli Cotton and Lee
Hardin, all colored, were arrested
and broughtto Greenville for trial
for the outrage. The negroes
really seemed to be unconscious OF
the enormity of their ofense, and
so Indifferent were they that the
bolts were pulled from the rails
close by their homes, in order that
they might have less trouble in
reaching the scene when the wreck
occurred. They confessed that
they pulled the bolts with tools
stolen from the company, and made
two efforts, the first not being sue
cessful, as the freight went by
without being derailed. They
then went back and pulled out a
great many more bolts, and calmly
awaited the arrival of the passen-
ger train and the possible killing
of great number of people as a
result of their fendish mischief.
When asked what their motive
was they answered that they
thought if a freight train was
wrecked they would get provis-
ions, and if passenger that they
could take money from the dead
and injured, and besides, they
"wanted a change, anyhow
meaning a diversion For the
sake of "a change apparently,
they were willing to hurl q train
full of unsuspecting people to
horrible death.
The extreme legal penalty for
such an otfense is entirely Q too
light to fit such a crime, and ten
7ears in the penitentiary will be
mall matter to these creatures,
o whom it is well known that a
ERIN in jail means nothing worse
han compulsory work. Great
was felt at the scene of
ne outrage, and in Greenville,
ut no threat of mob violence was
lade, although many people ex-
ressed a belief that an example
lghtto be made which would {
,ach the savages that train wreck I
g could not be INDUCED in as a I
after of amusement. '

The BRYAN Lecture.

Active preparations are being
made for the lecture by Mr.. Bryan
on the 10, and it is estimated that
Greenvllle will contain one of the
largest crowds on that day that
it has ever known. The railroad
and steamboat lines have Offered
special rates for the occasion, and
the address will be made in an
immense tent to be erected ON the
Percy lot, corner Main and Poplar
streets. Mr.. Bryan is IN orator
Of strength and power, and repre-,
sents the convictions and political
enthusiasms of a great number of
the American people. 1t is most
fitting that Greenville's reception
of him should be worthy of guest
so distinguished.

Thirty Thousand Acres Of SunHower Soil

A deal in real estate has Just
been managed by w. A. Percy,
Esq, of Memphis, by which 30
600 acres of land in Sunfower
county was sold for $780, to a
syndicate of northern capitalists.
The project of its purchasers is to
settle it with northwestern farm.
ers, none of it to be held for
speculation, but all to be sold in
small tracts to bona fide settlers.
These people come to Mississippi
because of the better climatic con-
ditions offered, and it is claimed
that the volume of emigration is
rapidly increasing, the settlers
seeking homes chiefly in Arkansas,
| West Tennessee, and northern and
middle Mississippi. The purchas-
ers of the Sunfower tract will at
once employ corps of engineers
to survey a railroad to run through
the county, to be built north to
south, lntersecting the Y. & NJ.
V. road at whatever point may be
convenient. This great land deal is
only one of several having in view
the object Of bringing settlers
south from the region of snow,
drouth and billiards., and the re-
suits of an organized effort, back
ed by powerful capital, will soon
be seen in the improvement and
development of those sections IN
which the projectors operate.
Emigration to the South is not
rapid or made en- masse, as was
the case in Kansas, Nebraska, and
other northwestern states some
years ago; but it is steady and
unremitting, not only drawn from
the agricultural population of
northern states, but bringing in
its train the manufacturing indus
tries which have for SO long been
confined to New England and are
now at last finding their proper
home near the cotton fields and
undeveloped mines and forests of |
the South.

Martha Robinson, colored, met
her death IN very sensational
manner on Sunday, the sixth, in
a Baptist church IN Newtown.
She was in the midst of a yehe-
ment and vociferous prayer or e1-
hortation, when she fell suddenly
as if struck by lightning, A wild
excitement of mingled religions
frenzy and sensationalism followed
The death is attributed to heart
disease, produced by her excite
ment and eXertions.

neighborhood. At last, however
it appears that the long desired
building will materialize. AS ye
the plan has not gong beyond The
making of estimates, and proposed
improvements, but the projec
now under consideration is to ex
tend the building one hundred anC
twenty feet to Blanton street
which will give ample space fol
storage and afford room for the
freight which now overhows the
depot. This part of the building
will be used exclusively for freight,
and the necessity for it is we'll
known to merchants, who, it is
claimed, now make a practice Of
watching for the arrival of their
goods and remove them as soon ss
possible because there is no room
for their proper storage and they
are often damaged by exposure or
over crowding. The present site
of the station will be used for
waiting rooms for passengers and
offices, the need for which is, if
possible even greater than for
more extensive freight accommo-
dations. The new waiting re rs
will be comfortable, modern, and
handsome, and the change from
the tiny dingy crowded Offices in
use at present will be greatly APP
preciated, not only by the public,
but by the officers and working
force of the depot. Not only will
the new building be an ornament
to the neighborhood, but the
grounds surrounding it are to re-
ceive attention, and will be paved
with gravel and ornsmented.
The vicinity of the station has
so much that it is one of
the most important business To-
Oalitles of the city, and complaints
that the railroad has not kept pace
n improvement with the neigh
)orhood have been loud and fire.
Iuent. If the present plans are
arried out, however, the tables
ill be turned and the station
rhich has been SO often complain
4 of will be the chief ornament of
lie east of Washington Avenue.

is 1T PEACE, OR WARP"

The Government of the United
States has appropriated $50, 600,
600 for defense, and gone vigor
ously to work to strengthen it,
rather feeble navy and thereby
insured peace. This is absolutely
all the public knows. The investiga
ton of the Maine disaster has beer
conducted with the utmost secre
ICY, and the people and newspa
pers know just as much about its
causes as they did when it occur
red. For nearly a month most OF
the leading newspapers of the land
have been belching battle and
murder and sudden death and
shrieking "war news" in which
there was nothing deadly but the
big black ''scare heads" at the
top OF the columns.
The excitement has about worn
itself out, and will probably be
forgotten in few weeks for some
great scandal or expedition to the
North Pole in a flying machine,
The SpaniardS are fiery, reckless
race, and are desperate with nat
ional poverty and trouble. Very
likely Spain, in her last throes,
would try to force a war on
America if she could raise the
for she has now nothing
left to lose.
But of what avail would it be to
this country to war with Spain !
What could its results be except
financial loss, injury to commerce,
md the national humiliation of Civ
ng the death blow to a country al
'eady in articulo morris If the
world must fight let the Anglo
saxon people give Russia and
Germany lesson, and afterwards
urn on the light of their civiliza-
ion and Christianity in the dark

Why should we rush blindly into
conflict from which we could
'nly gain the very undesirable
ownership of Cuba with its half

Probably after Cuba is ''free" we
'hall have to take control of it |
anyway, unless we are willing to
lave another Hayti established at
'ur doors, which is its inevitable
ate unless some capable civilized
power does take possession of it. /
spain cannot make war. If the
Maine was blown up by Spanish
'rders an indemnity must be col
ected, and it can only be done by
orce; bat enough OF typewriter
warfare, flake" kilograms, and
rantic efforts to stretch news
