DREDGING CONTRACT AWARDED

We are most pleased to state that
our townsman, Mr.. A. G.. Delmas has
been awarded by the government the
contract OF doing the work OF dredg-
ing Pascagoula river and Horn Island
harbor. The experience Of the con-
tractors makes it foregone conclu-
sion that the work will be thoroughly
aud satisfactorily done. Associated
with .hc contractor. Mr.. A. G. Delmas.
is his brother Mayor |. p. Delmas,
who has been engaged previously by
the government as inspector in the
execution of the governments en-
deayors in this behalf
The appropriation by the government
amounts to s3l7,600 The Delmas
brothers have taken the contract for
S1l, 900 less than the next lowest bid
der. The work of dredging and carry
ing out the contract will begin at as
early date as possible.
The following Is part OF the Rivers
and Harbors bill passed ut the last
session of Congress:
"Pascagoula river, Miss, and Horn

STAND FROM UNDER.


On the 18th Of November, 1899, the
earth will pass near the scattered re-
mains OF an eXtinguished globe,
which, in the due course of nature,
hrokeup to form with its scattered
fragments the earth, moon and per-
haps many of the Stars. This grand
old globe after losing Its character as
globe in the great family of worlds,
was known to astronomers rs an old
comet through the tail OF which the
earth periodically passes, attracting
TO her surface such loose fragments
as were wandering on the outskirts OF
her grand procession Of fragments,
At such visits the earth has been
built aud is yet drawing occasional
additions in the form ofsmeteoric
stones, so interesting to science.
The earth will make one of her Wis.
its to the grand old wreck on the 18th
Of November next at which time the
stars will appear to fall and those who
choose TO look will witness the grand
est pyrotechnic display of the nine.
teclth century The earth may quake
at the time and great extremes in
temperature may occur
The most interesting feature OF the
year to the fsfrmers Of the State will
be the productUn OF an abnormal cot.
ton crop. To he safe in our prediction
we will assure our cotton planters that
the cotton crop will be abnormaly
large, if the hot winds, drouth or ex.
cesSive rains in August does not
cause the shedding Of squares and the
loss of fruit. In the years 1899, 1893,
1866 the earth visited the shattered
remains Of her mother globe and in
1866 it will be remembered by plant
ers yet living, the cotton crop was alb
normally large in the Delta lands OF
Mississippi and good prices prevailed,
Should the same conditions prevail 10
1899 as to quality and price, great
prosperity will follow to all who may
escape or stand from under The falling
stars.

perform were arduous and severely

ism OF all were heavily taxed, by hard
labor, inclemcnt weather and almost
complete prOstration from sickness
and climate. There has been the
most abundant testimony that
through 1t all Major Vardaman bore
himself with conspicuous fOrtitude
