NOVEL WAYS OF RAISING MU.
NICIPAL REVENUES.

Taxation by State, counties and
municipalities must be levied on prop
erty owned by parties on February
LIST, and collected after October 18th
OF the same year. Hence our city Of
Moss Point will not be able to collect
taxes for nearly eighteen months, and
our "city fathers" will have to do
some fine ananciering. No doubt
many schemes will be devised where
by the city's Golfers may be filed.
One scheme suggested, Is to levy q
privilege tax (which is collectible at
once) on each old bachelor, and young
unmarried man over TWENTY-FIVE years
old, so as to provide a fund aya!lable
to any "bclated sister" who wilfapply
for a pension Of five dollars per
month, certifying that she is over
twenty-five years old, and that she
has had no one to propose to her, nor
opportunity to marry during the year.
Another scheme, no doubt suggested
by some Napoleon Of finance" Is for
the "city fathers' to agree to allow
only ONE bar room in the city limits,
and this privilege to be advertised
and sold to the highest bidder. AS
our town has been dry so long and the
brethren, no doubt, are very dry, this
privilege would bring q handsome
sum.

SEASHoRE METHODIST DISTRICT
CONFERENCE.

Last Friday and Saturday this con.
ference was in session in GulfpOrt,
with the largest attendance Of preach
ers and laymen ever known, and one
Of the liveliest sessions. Advance.
ment along all lines OF church activity
was shown.
A report was presented by J. A.
WOOdyille, president Of the board OF
trustees, reviewing the work Of last
year, which was financially very pros.
porous, and prophesying a still more
successful meeting during the coming
July. This report precipitated a live
ly discussion. Hon. 7. NJ. Evans
made d vigorous attack upon the man.
ner in which the trustees were man.
aging the camp meeting. He read the
prospectus recently issued, and said il
was an advertisement of a summer
resort, with slight suggestion Of any.
thing religious. Resolutions were al.
SO offered Urged a change In the present
charter, which gives the New Orleans
district eight trustees and the Sea.
shore but four. A committee Is called
for to take such action as may be ne
cessary to secure an amendment to
the charter, whereby seven trustees
shall be appointed from each Of the
three patronizing districts-the New
Orleans, the SeashOre and the Mobile.
The place Of holding the next ses-
sion was chosen and Poplarville was
selected. The following lay delegates
were elected to the annual conference:
A. J. Clark. T. M. Evans, j. p. Carter,
J. W. Jackson, w. $. Tatum, E. s.
Calhoon, J. II. Havens, S. E. Lance
were elected alternates.
Several committees reported, and
their reports were adopted. One Of
the reports, presented by Rev. G. II.
Galloway, criticised the management
OF the Seash0re campmeeting in the
following words:
I'VE note with SORROW that the pros
pectus Of the SeaShore camp meeting
contains an advertisements OF Sunday
excursions. The impropriety OF this
is unquestionable. We may never ex.
pect the baptism Of the Holy Ghost
upon the SAID camp meeting as long
as such things are suffered. We
would advise the abatement Of the
advertisement"
The conference renewed the licenses
to preach Of G. S. Roberts and J. H.
Havens, and w. w. Graves was grant,
ed license to preach.

is MONEY EVERYTHING!

II is not worth that makes the man;
It's wealth-deny it they who can!
'Tis love for its alchemic ray
That leads society astray.
1t can't afford to snub man
Built on the million-dollar plan!
1t only waits until 1t learns
What you have not, before 1t spurns,
No wretch, il he has wealth galore,
Is kept long waiting at its door.
It's wealth that glides and bushes;
rs wealth that scandal furnishes;
It's wealth that causes all our woes;
II buys us friends and buys us foes.
We pay fee when we are born,
And when from earthly life we are torn,
When freed from wearing care and toll,
We pay for just six feet of soil,
In which to lay in peace away
The still, cold form Of crum bling clay.
Then yours, 0 Riches, be the field,
For to you all the virtues yield,
When men despair your smiles to win
They call you goddess, "root Of SIM"
Yet If you but glance bestow,
How quickly all their maxims 60!
Twas envy of your power alone
That seated virtue on throne,
Where she is viciously abused,
And where her sceptre lies unused!
society's funny ching;
From ennui always suffering.
Its matrons take up the fad,
And folly unto folly add.
They initiate embrace joys;
The clog dance, with its dirt and noise
The skirt dance, with its pretty hints;
The cake walk-done in gauxe, not
chintz;
And what may be, not what 1t should
Why, that's the very thing that's good
Truth hides her earnest, radiant face
From nearly all the present race,
For she Is naked, and she knows
That people Judge you by your clothes
Though scanty raiment is the rage
With women on the social stage;
But Falsehood, always richly dressed,
Is welcomed, cOurted and caressed,
The very man who stands before
The people, with the precious ore.
Farewell, farewell, Society, ..
You queen Of notoriety!
You jeweled improperly!
You mother of variety
And breeder of safety!
Farewell, oh, aristocracy,
You network of hypocrisy!
You callow, shallow mockery!
OF vice the wealthy patented
Farewell to thee, farewell to thee!
