A Kansas paper has fable about a
fool pup which, while rambling
through the fields, found hole that
belonged to u humble bee, and with
youthful curiosity inserted his nose in
the opening. The head Of the bee
family was ut home and the next min
ute the pup turned somersault back
ward and howled in agony. He con-
tinued to howl as he ran to his mother
and showed her a swelled place on his
nostril about the size of an acorn; but
his mother said, as she rammed her
otfspring's smeller in some soft mud to
relieve the pain: my son, if you will
learn from this to keep your nose out
Of other peoples business, you will
find that the current of life will run
much smoother for YOU" There is a
lesson in this for the average human
being.

From Parsons to Grenada.

From Parsons to Grenada.
The newspapers are beginning to talk
about Grenada considerably since our
new railroad has begun to look like q
certainty. The Yazoo City Herald
says:
From reliable information the Herald
learns that the Illinois Central Rail-
road Company and the Y. & M. ".
Company have accepted the PROPOSE
ton made by the citizens Of Grenada to
extend the railroad from Parsons to
Grenada.
From Parsons to Grenada is only l6
miles. We have not yet learned when
work on the extension will begin, but
possibly this fall. The building OF this
extension will put Grenada in position
to compete for the Tallahatchle trade
with Greenwood, and Grenada has
shown 60 much enterprise in raising
the necessary funds to secure The road,
1t might be we'll for our cotton buyers
to keep an eye on those Of that pro.
gressive town.

The people Of the state can feel as.
sured that no man before the state con.
vention will have q stronger recon-
mendation from the people Of his home
county than Maj. B. F. Thomas, Of
Grenada, candidate for Railroad Com
missioner, and they may feel assured
also that the expressions OF the resolu-
tions passed at the mass convention
last Saturday are not simply for polit>
ical effect. They are genuine, straight
from~the-heart sentiments of the peo,
pie OF Grenada county. The SENTINEL
endorses every word in the resolution,
and trusts that this worthy gentle

succeed in their efforts to secure his

RIGHTLY Spoken.

The following extract 10 from the
Fairmont, Minn., Sentinel. paper ed
tied BY man who allows his mind to
rise above petty prejudice and party
ties. 1t goes to show that the people
of the north and west are beginning to
see the right side Of the negro problem
as it exists, and 1t also goes TO show
that the Republican party and its in-
competent representatives now at the
helm Of the ship Of state are not en-
tirely sanctioned in that section. Tho
Sentinel, which is weekly and well
come visitor at this Office, says:
AS ap illustration of the brutal ten
denotes developed in man by war IT is
only necessary 10 ponder on the death
of Corporal Hayes, a deserter, as de-
scribed by one OF tho returned volun-
teers. Hayes became enamored OF a
Filipino beauty, and deserted to marry
her and then joined the insurgent army.
His death is thus described by Sergt'
Lamarsh of the Kansas regiment:
We had charged the Filipinos, driving them
back and killing and wounding many
Among the wounded left on the field we
found Hayes. He was recognized by several
Of the boys. One Of the soldiers OF the Sec.
ond Oregon drove his bayonet through the
body OF the wounded traitor and lifted him
above his head and held him there while the
soldiers shot him. The body was thrown In,
to a trench and buried with several dead
Fiiipnos. We would have treated him
worse if we had known how.
Before he became a soldier and &C
customed to deeds Of war and blood the
man who pushed his bayonet through
the body OF II wounded fellow being and
lifted it up in The air to be shot at,
would no doubt have been shocked to
read of the lynchlng of u colored man
in the South for the outraging OF Il
white woman. WAR is HE'LL" and the
men responsible for an unnecessary
war deserve to be sent there first.

The following from the Yazoo City
Herald strikes the SENTINEL as being
just about right.
1t is fierce mockery to the hundreds
of thousands OF people in the United
States who are barely earning enough
to keep body and soul together. and to
thousands Of strikers who are forced to

somewhat more fortunate fellow labor
ers for the bare necessities OF life, to
hear from the rostrum and read from
the press glowing accounts Of the pros"
porous condition OF this great country.

what he will be re- elected, aud that is
the way it should be. 1t is no dis
paragement of his worthy and honor
able competitor. Gov. Lowry, to say
that Senator Sullivan. in view Of his
appointment to an unexpired term, and
by reason Of the splendid and energetic

about the face, head, arms and body,
but none seriously. They in turn were

WITH THE BAPTIST CLERGY.
Resolutions Anent the Retirement Of
Rev. T, Z. Jepson,


At the Baptist Ministers conference
read a paper on THE Poet Preachers
Browning and Tennyson." The paper
was well written and showed that the
writer was familiar with the two great
poets, who have been called the master
Yersitiers of the Victorian age. a very
interesting discussion followed the pa
per-
Rev. r. Z. Jepson being about to sew
er his connection with the conference,
the following resolutions were unan-
imOusly adopted;
Whereas, One of our most efficient and
ConGecrated members, Rev. II. L. Jepson,
after a pastorate of about eleven years
of the Berean Baptist church of Carbon
dale, has resigned to enter upon a WELL
earned period Of rest; and, inasmuch
as this brother was not only a success
full pastor of exceptional ability and zeal.
but also devoted worker in our confer
ence and association, and labored faith
fully for the welfare of each.
Resolved, That we express our appre-
citation of him and our regard for his
Christian character, devotion and sweet
fraternal spirit.
Resolved, also, that we wish him God
speed, ana trust that wherever the great
Head of the church may call him TO
labor, his ministration may be as emil
nently successful as when he labored
among us.
Mr.. Jepson very feelingly thanked the
conference for it's appreciation of him
and for the benefit which he has de-
rived from association with his breth-
rem, He will not Immediately enter
upon another pastorate, but will rest
a while in Utica, N. Y.

PLANS FOR THE CONVENTION.
Foreign Missionary Societies Meet
in Elm Park Church.

The members OF the Foreign Mis-
slonary society of the Methodist
churches of Scranton and Dunmore
met yesterday in Elm Park church
TO plan for the branch convention to
take place in October Mrs. c. D..
Simpson presided
There was a large attendance and
much preliminary business was ac-
complished. Mrs. f. p. Doty and Miss
Frances Raub read papers. The fol-
lowing chairmen of committees were
announced: Entertainments, Mrs G..
+. Reynolds; lunch, Mrs. S. T. Jones;
press, Mrs. c. Il. Penman; informa-
tion, Miss Raub; secretary OF conven-
tion, Miss Sarah Peck.
1t was decided that Elm Park Will
furnish lunch on the first day; Simp-
son, Providence and Asbury on the
succeeding days of the convention. As
this convention will include delegates
from both this state and Delaware, 1t
is probable that a large number, among
them many of wide distinction. will
be present. 1t Is possible that q hand
some reception will be given the visi-
tors at one of the most elegant resi-
dences in the city. The names of al
committee members will be announced
later.
