NEWS NOTES.

jackson, Miss, June 24.-Peace
is about to be declared between
State Revenue Agent Adams and
the indignant people Of Natchez,
who were thrown into turmoil oi
excitement a few days ago by the
/ announcement of the discovery OF
about $3.50 900.
Since tho return of Deputy
Chiles from his recent trip tc
Natchez IL has developed that the
back tax claims have been reduc.
ed fully 50per cent by cancela-
tions, discharges, ETC., which were
not noted on the records from
which the deputy compiled his
data, and it is further announced
that nearly all the remaining
claims will he settled without liti.
cation. The revenue agent has
instructed his deputy to use all
possibible liberality in settling
pending claims and to give the de
linquents all credits justly claim
cd. The full amount Of back
taxes due will not exceed $3.50,
900, and it is expected that set
Elements in full will be made
within the next few weeks.
Great capital was made by the
opponents of the revenue agent

lady against whom it was said that

for taxes amounting to $4,785,

is attempted to preserve it.
"No Legislature is going to ap-
propriate sufficient money for
such q purpose, unless 1t is going
to pay. The supporters Of the
preservation movement will have
to make a bettershowing for their
s.permanent exhibition plan than
they have so far, before il will
have weight with a legislature.
Even granting the force of all the
arguments, /, is fact that ten
thousand dollars, would put up a
building better adapted to such an
exhibit as they propose than in the
old hulk Of capitol. Such sum
would be bagaiellc when it came
to putting the capitol in perma-
aent repair.

Iof the exercises Hon. f. e. o.
Brien, the newly-elected mayor Of
city of Bay ST. Louis, delivered
an eloquent and timely address to
the graduates. admonishing them
to always retain the Christian
precepts inculcated by the good
sisters. His address was made in
well-chosen words, but short. He
said its brevity was of necessity;
that he was no De la Mourinere,
neither a Prendergast and as an
official. through which position he
had been selected for the honor,
he was only a mayor of one day
old--a baby mayor - and could
moi say much. He was applaud
ed, and as this was bis frst ap-
pearance as the city's chief execu-
tive the ovation was made doubly
dcmonstrativc.
THE GRADUATES.
Miss Lulu Matranga is the sec.
ond daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Anthony Matranga. a young girl
not long In her teens; accomplish
ed in music, both vocal and in
strumental; the embodiment Of
all that is pure and sweet. Her
parents and friends are Justly
proud of her. One of the many
honors awarded 10 her Tuesday
was beautiful gold medal for ex-
Iemplary conduct.
Miss Antoinette Graugnard is
| the only daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. j. b. G. Graugnard, of Ed
gard, La. Entering the Academy
seven years ago as d iners child,
during that time she MASTER
ed both the French and English
languages, and proficient musi-
clan. Like her sister graduates,
Miss Graugnard is young and fair
and besides the wealth of an edu-
cation has a heart endowed with
the spiritual good found in Chris
tian instruction.
Misses Lucy and Henrietta Kel-
Ter are the eldest daughters Of Mr..
and Mrs. l.. A. Keller, of Hahn
vile, La. Both sisters are cultur-
lin mind and heart, and they
will ornament the home and So
ciety with credit to their ALMA ma
ter.
Miss Odette Becnel, like Miss
Graugnard, is the only daughter
of fond parents. They are Mr..
and Mrs. T. l.. Becnel, of Hahn

cd on the States finances that the
next Legislature will not author
ize reduction of the State tax
levy. as is now being advocated in
several quarters. 1t has been sug-
gestcd that the levy should be re-
duced from six mills TO at least
five and one-half mills, and to five
mills II possible, but if any reduc-
tion is made, according to we'll in
formed opinion it will not be un-
til the Legislative session of 1908.
1t is pointed out as an argument
against the proposed reduction
that the new State House shoul d
be erected without a bond issue,
and If this is to be done the levy
must remain at six mills, for it
will cost a considerable sum TO
improve and beautify the grounds
after the building is completed.
Furthermore, there are several
badly-neoded public expenditures
to be made, chief among these
being proposed geological survey,
the Confederate home and the
State hospital, which will require
considerable money in case the
Legislature provides for them at
the next session.
1t is now the current belief in
Republican political circles that
a meeting Of the entire State ex-
ecutive comittee, composed of fiji. .
ty members, will he necessary be-
fore some of the large Federal
plums now in contest can he final
ly disposed of.
Chief in interest Just now is the
race for the jackson postofficc,
where there are three candidates
in the field. Messrs. Fl. NJ. Ker.
naghan, h. o. Edwards and By
ron Lemly. MIR. Edward Yullow-
ly has recently announced his with
drawal for the race and is giving
active support to the candidacy of
Mr.. Edwards. The contest is one
OF the most spirited sort. md is one
while it il conceded that Mr.. Ed
wards has the party organization
at his back, it is rumored that
Capt. kernaghan will have seye-
raj surprising trump cards to play
at the critical moment.
The Vicksburg postofiice con-
test is also attracting u share of
attention just now with Messrs.
Mayer and Easterling as the
avowed candidates, and a strong
rum0r to the effect that Mr.. Mui1
yihill is about to enter the race.
A contest that is attracting
considerable attention, especially
in the southern part of the State,
is the race between Hon. +. w.
Collins, the present incumbent,
and Capt. +. A. Wolfe of this city
for the position of United States
marshal for the Southern district
nf Mississippi Capt. Wolfe is
. recent entry for the place and it
is stated that he is making an
energetic canvass, realizing, that
he has difficult man to defeat.
The Meridian postoffice fight
has not yet opened owing to the
remoteness of the date for the ex-
piration of the term of the pres
ent incumbent.
1t is stated that both District
Attorney Montgomery and Unit
ed States Marshal Buchanan, of
the northern district, will have
opposition. The various contests
are in statu quo just now awaiting
the return of National Committee
man Turley, who is at present in
Washington.
