Cotton MIL Pointers.

There will be a meeting of those
interested in cotton mill, at tho
opera house this evening (Wednes'
day. at A p, nj. sharp,
The subscription list to the cot.
ton mill is gradually swelling.
Don't forget about that cotton
mill. Put your shoulder to the
whe and keep it moving.
Before you will be called upon
to make payment of your subscrip-
ton to the cotton mill, every prc'
caution will be taken to see that
| the investment will not be loss,
The subscribers will choose men to
visit the mills in North Carolina
and Georgia, to find out to whom
the products are sold and if there
is always a market for them, how
much it costs to run mill, etc.
and if they find that mill will
not do we'll in Sinner, it will not be
built. But we see no reason why
it should not do as well here as in
the other states, or in Europe, 5000
miles from where the cotton is
grown.

in gravity and attempted
murder-were brought against him. In
1892 he was sentenced to 30 years in
the Tennessee penitentiary. Being Of
robust build he was sent to work i'm
the convict coal mines, being assigned
to the Big Mound mine, 10 miles from
Nashville. This, in the south is con-
sidered as good as a death sentence
Five years ago Cole and seven com

abandoned and choked with debris.

There is no known antidote for the
bite of the tiger in Australia. Persons
bitten die almost instantly, and the gov
eminent has a standing offer of 1000
for anyone who will discover remedy.
Some few years ago a young man ac-
finally discovered an eficacious anti
dote. To prove its value he allowed
himself to be bitten repeatedly by
snakes in fun possession of the power
TO kill. One day he gave in exhibition
before some government officials, but,
being much under the influence OF
liouor, be did not recollcct what he had
done with his antidote, and he died
shortly after the snake bite, his secret
perishing with HIM.

IT SEEMED LIKE A MIRACLE.


Maryyille, Mo-, Sept, 26.--An Omaha
St. Louis train load of eNcursionists,
returning from the Omaha exposition
was wrecked on bridge over the
Platte river here and miraculously es-
capped injury. The track spread just
before the train passedupon the bridge
and the rails were torn up. The bridge
partially gave way, and the engine and
two coaches tcppled over and Tell into
it short distance, landing on some Of
the under timbers. These proved
strong enough to support them and
the passengers, badly frightened, We're
able 70 climb out of the windows and
doors and reach solid ground unin-
jured.
The bridge is 20 feet high where the
coaches struck and the water in the
river is about equally deep. Trainmen
say it seems a miracle that he entire
train of five coaches, all of which We're
heavily loaded with eNcurSionists, did
not go through.

The Aberdeen Examiner is noted for
the interest it takes in all phases of in

not surprised to see it discuss the
subject of Chickens in Mississippi"
1t states that there are thousand
dozen chickens shipped out of the
State to every dozen imported. 1t cites
Bonneville in Prentiss county, and
Ellisville, in Jones county, as being
noted for their chicken and egg eX-
ports-poultry handling in both of
those towns constituting leading in
dustrv. In the census of 1890 Missis-
sippi ranks 21st in the production of
chickens, and leads all the States in the
ratio of chickens to white population.
Very little attention was paid to OBJ
tanning reports of products of any kind
from the negroes on plantations, al
though they are all poultry raisers
The census of 1890 gave Mississippi
< 681 7s4 chickens, with a white popula-
tion of ga, s51, while it gave Ohio, r.
