In speaking of the State OF
Mississippi; and Greenville in par
tlcular, the Manufactures Record
forclvely remarks that; Lately
the State of Mississippi has awak-
ened to the necessity of manufac-
turing her raw products, and at
the session of the legislature which
ended March u, the sum of $40,
900 was appropriated to put in
some machinery at the State Agri-
cultural and Mechanical College
at Starksville to start a school of
instruction in cotton manufactur-
ing. The money is now available
for use, and the college is in the
market for the desired machinery.
The capacity of the school is limit
ed to 100 pupils in the cotton man
ufacturlng line. All classes of
standard goods, domestics, sheet
ing, ETC., are to be woven there,
and the cotton is to be supplied
from the farms Of the Agricultural
and Mechanical College. The
product will be sold. 1t is proba-
BILE that an experienced cotton
mill man will be needed as instruc-
tor, with regular place on the
faculty.
I he interest in cotton maniac
ures is rampant throughout the
State, and charters have recently
,een secured for a number of cot
on mills. Among the lot being
ecorded in the Office Of the secre-
airy of State IN the last few weeks
he following appear, and the pro
loters are now in the market for
Machinery and supplies:
The Greeuville Cotton Mills,
ireenvllle, Miss; capital stock
100000; incorporators, Henry T.
reys, w. F. Randolph and others.

erettas given under local manage
ment with notable success. She
joined the Bostonians as an under
study to Jessie Bartlett Davis
three years ago. She remained
one season, and then studied vocal
music under Nine Duff of Chicago
for one year. Last year she play
cd a prominent role in "The Great
Ruby" and made pronounced
hit and Augustin Daily arranged
to star her, but his sudden death
upset all the arrangements. At
terward she was offered the place
recently occupied by Jessie Bart
lett Davis with the Bostonians,
which she accepted. She has
more fondness for the dramatic
than the operate stage, however,
and she will probably enter the
ranks of the dramatic profession
next season.

We are compelled to ask pardon
of our readers, this week for our
paper but having accepted the
contract to print the programs
for the new opera house, it has
required almost our entire force
to get it out on time and do the
other job work that was sent in as
rush orders. This opera house
program we are turning out should
convince any one that our Office
IS prepared to get out as neat work
as one can get at an increased price
in printing Offices of other cities.
There is not an ad in the book,
if we do say it, but what shows
taste; display and proportion IN
its make up. Don't fail to see
one of these book programs and
if you appreciate good work send
it to us.

On the wall of our county court

other distinguished Judges was
placed during the last term of our
Chancery Court, life size picture
OF Honorable w. G. Yerger,
one of the oldest as we'll as the
ahlest and noblest member of the
Greenville bar. The presentation
speech was made on behalf of the
family by Hon Robt. Campbell
and accepted by the distinguished
chancellor Hon A. Nee Kim
brough in short and feeling talk.
No picture that adorns these
wall will be more highly priced
by the people OF Washington
county than this one. for w. G.
1erger was q friend of the people,
whose purse was always open to
charities and whose voice spoke
out for their rights. As an attor-
ney he ranked with the first of the
profession and leaves name and
life indellbly impressed upon the
associates of his bar.

Probably taking their cue from
Mr.. Mckinley, Republican leaders
are SO given to turning political
flip-faps that it is difficult to keep
pace with their movements. The
leader will remember how Senator
Beverage "waked the lizards, stir
red the moles and drove the wood
chucks to their holes" in that
grand speech of his support of the
Porto Rican bill levying a tax on
the products of that island. Well.
now 1t is asserted that the Demo-
cratic state committee of Indiana
has in its possession and will use
as a campaign document a copy
of that speech as it was originally
written, with a conclusion,
flaming Senatoration declaration
unreservedly for free trade as a
matter of national obligitionlI

The appointment OF MI y. y
Hardy as President of the A. & M
College was some what Of q sur
prise to the people of this part of
the State. There is no question
as to Prof. Hardy's ability for the
place, but many like we thought
that as the college has graduates
in every way capable for the posi-
ition, one of their number should
have been selected. Such a selec-
ton would have been a credit to
the institution and given encour-
agement to other deserving young
men who take the course. But
since the Board OF trustees have
in their wisdom seen proper to
select Mr.. Hardy our best wishes
are with him and hope the present
year will be prosperous one un-
der this able educator and Mis-
slssippian.

Opening of Grand Opera House

Tuesday night with Mr.. Gang
Wills play, "Children of the
Ghetto" which Will he seen here
as the opening attraction at our
beautiful new theatre is described
as a true picture of life in the
Ghetto. The Ghetto was a world
in miniature. 1t had its scenes OF
Joy and sorrow, of gIadness and
grief, of happiness and woe. 1t
is a play in which there is no vii
lian. There is no unfaithful wife,
no courtesan, no man to betray an
innocent girl. In these days of i'm
moral plays, such as Sapho and
Zaza, it ought to be refreshing to
the theatregoing public to see a
play that is absolutely pure, no
immortality, nothing that suggests
immortality, that which saves only
of woman's purity, her religion,
her devotion to father, mother and
home. This is the kind of a play
that Messrs. Liebler & Co. are
presenting in "Children of the
Ghetto"
1t is a sketch from every day life
about a race of people that have
been carrying the burden of per-
secution from the dawn of the
Christian Era. 1t portrays the
life of people whose wants are few
and whose ways are simple. 1t is
doubtful if a finer stage character
was ever created than that of |
1.-THE Rabbi Reb ShemueP which
81 lmpersonated by the great char
acter actor, Wilton Lackaye. The
lovable, ideality and strong per-
sonality of the Rabbi, remoin in
the memory wheE all else fades.
The man of learning, as repre-
sented by the Rabbi, was the
flower of the Ghetto Judaism.
The on locker cannot but feel that
a religion which even amid the
restrictions and morbid surround
ing of the Ghetto, can produce
such character, must indeed pos
sess possibilities whereof the out
side world has never dreamed.
Everyone who has seen the play
has given Mr.. Zangwill credit for
having drawn a picture of intense
interest and one seldom approach
ed by any of the great dramatists.
The charts for seats will be on
