The Pascagoula democrat-star. (Pascagoula, Miss.) 1878-1920, 1899-03-10

Last Saturday a DEMOCRAT-STAR
representative paid a visit to the "ho.
tel de MontrOss,' Biloxi, and found a
decidedly up-to-date appearance to
the famous old hostelry. The present
proprietUrs, Messrs. Sanford & Affeld,
are experienced hotel keepers, having
conducted several frst-class establish
ments in Chicago. They are both af-
fable and progressive gentlemen, and
will doubtless make a success of their
new undertaking.

"Mr. Hez Wheat OF P~icayune, has
capped the climax on the pork Ques-
tion," says the Poplarville Enter
prise. Last week he sent to the En-.
terprise office the foot OF a hog that
when dressed, weighed over 500
pounds. Mr.. Wheat was in Poplar
vile not long since and informed US
that he had killed four porkers that
averaged 400 pounds net. At the usu.
al price these five hogs would have
sold for $l05, or as much as five bales
of 5 cent cotton"

Congressman Joe Bailey, Of Texas,
refuses to be the leader of the Demo-
cratic party in the House, because the
members Of his party will not follow
him. 1t Is obvious that his party
friends did not think he was a safe
leader, therefore, they refused to be
led by him. Joe will now take a back
seat, and it is a good thing for the
Democratic party.

John ID. Rockefeller is to day the rich
est man in the United S~tates-more,
indeed, the richest man in the world.
He is valued at $3.50, 0OO, 900, but his
wealth exceeds those figures consider
ably. His income is upwards of S40,-
900 a day, or over $l4, 600, 900 in a year.
And still he is grasping for more. A
poor, lean, hungry country editor is
far happier than Rockefeller, and
would not exchange places with him.

The Maccabee

We wish to say a few words in
regard to the Maccabees. Think
ing perhaps that it would interest
the members who do rot attend,
but. after a careful examination of
0ur roll, we find that all who do not
attend, with the exception Of two
or three, cannot possibly meet with
US regularly.
So far this year we have nine
new members, with others to come
in later. The initiatory work is
beautiful, each one having commit
ted to memory her part, making
it all the more impressive. The
hive is now in a thriving condi-
ton. All seem to be greatly en-
couraged. We feel confident if
those who could come and do not,
would think of the obligation they
took, that the next time they were
absent it would be because they
could not possibly attend. There
will be meeting of the committee
on arrangements at the home of
Mrs. II. c. Potterf Monday, the

John Stevenson Acquitted.

From Mayor w. T. Gardner,
who returned yesterday from
Paris, we learn that the Adler
murder case has been postponed
Cor week. We also learn John
Stevenson was acquitted of the
murder Of Joe Gaines by a jury
Friday morning. Stevenson case
has, we believe, been before a jury
three times. the first of which
found him guilty of murder, the
next manslaughter. and he was
sent to the penitentiary; but hav-
ing obtained a third hearing he
has been acquitted. The killing
of Gains occurred at Pauls Valley.
