The Tupelo Journal says that
"the good market for Southern
cattle opened up in Cuba after the
close of the recent war attracted
the attention of some of Lee coun-
ty's wide-awake cattlemen, and
shipment Of good beef cattle and
milch cows have been going con
stantly. This demand has great
ly advanced the prices of cattle
and our people have realized good
prices when they had something
good to sell. One dealer in this
county has sold in Havana for the
first six months of the year $780,
900 worth of cattle, mostly cows.
He ships only the best, for which
he gives and receives good prices. Z

FLO FIELD.

Sundays New Orleans States
gives this brief hut interesting
sketch of one young and fair,
promising and ambitious, who is
no stranger to our readers and
townspeople, many of whom
have the pleasure of the young
writer's acquaintance during her
residence IN this city at one time.
Says the States:
One of the brightest and best
known of the newspaper writer's
of New Orleans, and one who has
made name for herself while vet
girl, is Miss Flo Field, the
"Eve Up-to-Date" and "Round.
about Gossiper" of the Times
Democrat. Like her brilliant
minded mother, the lamented
Catherine Cole, Miss Flo Field
entered journalism as a child,
when she wrote news and des-
criptiye stories for the Picayune
while travelling with her mother
in Europe and subsequently her
name and writings became fam
iliar in connection with the hu-
morous "Aunt Pemherton-Wick-
low Stories," which ran in the
Times-Democrat for several years
and earned for the young writer
her first deserved reputation, for
the stories were distinctly origin
al and brlmming with fun and
quaint sarcasm. In fact, it is to
be doubted if there is any woman
in the South, and very few indeed
in this country, who demonstrates
such strong individuality and
keen, deep-seeing humor and
ability to give it the witticst ex-
preston as she, yet like her moth
er, she is perhaps strongest and
truest in the deeper passages of
Tenderness and pathos.
Next appeared "Roundabout
Gossip" in which innumerable
stories, running the gamut of
feeling and fancy wefe published
and now continue even though
the editorial responsibilities of
"Eye Up-to-Date" engross a
large part of her attention. Miss
Field is petite and winsome, and
as attractive and winsome as her
stories are in their literary beauty.
The charm of personal acquaint.
ance with the clever writer is 8
privilege that but enhances the
value of the writings that SC
many have come to know through
the columns of the local press.
The jackson News says that
Secretary of State Power is con.
siderably excited over the discov
cry of fresh breaks in the walls oi
the old capitol, in the immediat,
VICINITY Of his office. 1t has bee,
known for some time that tn,
soath walls of the capitol were tn,
, most dangerous, being l8 inche
outof plumb, but it was hopet
that they would stand until th
new building could be erected. /
is supposed that the continue,
wet weather has had something L
do with fastening the decay. Th
outer sections of the massive oil
! walls are of stone, and yer
, large block OF which now seem
! ready to fall out. Behind thes
stones can be seen the brick nus
sonry which is apparently almos
crumbling to dust, and it is fear
cd once the stones are remove
I the brick work will not snppoI
! the structure. No one need b
surprised that the old building hs
! collapsed--but then it may stan
there forever"

AT conference of the State
officials in the governors Office
Monday afternoon, it was formal
ly decided to recall the proposed
sale of capitol bonds, $3.50, 900 of
which have already been adver-
tised. The balances now in the
treasury, together with the esti-
mated receipts for the next twelve
months, it is thought, will be am
pie to pay all appropriations and
still leave funds sufficient to meet
all preliminary demands in the
building of the new capitol. In
cluding the cash now on hand,
the revenues until January 1902,
it is computed, will exceed the
expenditures about 5000, 900, and
allowance is not made in this
calculation for several large
amounts which will very probably
accrue to the State during that
time. such as the proceeds from
the railroad back tax suits and
the sale of college lands. 1t is
possible that July next the COVER
nor may decide to call in the
100000 5 per cent bonds now
outstanding and sell capitol bonds
in suitable quantities to take their
place. 1t is also possible that
Mississippi's new state house can
be constructed, complete in every
detail, without the use Of dollar
of the million dollar appropria-
ton. This the administration is
determined to do, if it is found
practicable.

GEMS THAT WILL LIVE.

Candidate Bryan's speech OF
acceptance recently delivered at
Indianapolis, with common con.
sent of all who have heard and
read it; with the consent of the
press at large, is pronounced
great---a speech that will out-liye
its author. Mr.. Bryan never did
utter anything before this to equal
it.
A few gems from this famous
speech are here reproduced:
"Justice is as strictly due let
ween neighbor nations as between
neighbor citizens"
"a highwayman is as much a
robber when he plumbers in a
gang as when singly; and the ma
tion that makes an unjust war is
only a great gang"
"Can it be our duty to kill
those who, following the example
of our forefathers, love liberty
well enough to fight for it 2"
"The command, Go ye into all
the world and preach the gospel
to every creature has no Gatling
GUN attachment. -
"Compare, if you will, the
staggering, bullying, brutal doc
trine of Imperialism with the
Golden Rule and the command
ment, Thou shalt love thy neigh
Dor as thysclf.' +"
"Destiny is the subterfuge OF
the inyertebrate. who lacking the
courage to oppose error, seeks
some plausible excuse for sup
porting it,"
"Man, the handiwork of God,
comes first; money, the handlwork
of man, is of inferior Importance.
Man is the master, money the
servant but upon all important
questions to-day Republican legis-
lation tends to make money the
master and man tho servant"
"No one has a right to expect
from society more than a fail
compensation for the service
which he renders to society. II
he secures more, it is at the ex.
pense Of some one else. 1t is ne
injustice to him to prevent hi
doing injustice to another. TX
