The ball team of the Woodmen Of
fees, uknown as the Profes SIGNALS,
was defeated last night for second
time by q picked team. which the
losers had dubbed the Scrubs. TIE
latter now feel as though they are
entitled to be known as the first team
of the office, for they have defeated
the Professionals in two consecutive
games. Last night the score was IL
to z, six innings being played. Some
of the features of the game were the
strong work of the Scrubs bat
terry, and of Short Stop Burt, who far
surpassed the expectations of Manager
Navlon.

An Immoral Law.

'@The unseemly divorce obtained by the aged Millionaire Henry M. Flagler against his aged and insane wife, under the Flor Ida law which he got enacted, will surely shock the conscience of the country as being gravely unmoral,'' said man at the Morris last night.
 "One would assume that a man with even the least soul quality, apart from any religious conviction, would hesitate to legally desert wife to whom the direst possible calamity had come. As- suredly a man who Is man would hold sacred the tie that bound him to wife bereft of reason after long years of de- votion to him; and If there ever be any excuse for divorce 1t does not seem right that 1t could come in such circum- stances.
 ''Old Mir F1agler. at seventy-two, takes advantage of an immoral law. the enact ment of which. 1t Is alleged. his money procured, and gets legally rid of the wife whom he took for better or for worse and who was faithful to him until in- sanity confused the images of her loves in her brain; and they say the old millionaires sole and only purpose in it all is to marry again. Could any thing be more shocking?'

Whites and Blacks in Mississippi.

InX6Nisiana and Alabama the white rna1ority is steadily increasing, but the published figures for Mississippi are not so encouraging. In the ten years covered by the census the white in crease Tn that State was 9S,O49; the black increase, 63,621. The blacks out grew the whites per cent. The State now holds 642,9O0 whites and 90s,370 blacks.
 The fertility of the State is doubtless ar, explanation of this increase in negro population. Railroads have been pushed into the Yazoo Delta, resulting in fur ther developments, and this develop ment has led to demand for more ne- gro labor, which has been drawn from all States to the eastward, particularly from Georgia, South Carolina and Ala bama.
 But this is not all Young white men are continually leaving the towns Of Mississippi. Some go to New York, some to Texas, some here and some there. but they leave the State because it has heretofore been an agricultural State. This district and town has ap- preciab-y benefited Dy Mississippi emi- grafton. We have thousands of them, and are glad of 1t. They have come to grow up with the district, and they are sharing in its prosperity. No doubt Mississippi's best opportunity lies in her determination to become an indus trial State as well. She has recently established an excellent textile school at Starkville, her public school system is progressive and well-conducted. and cotton mills are going up in dozen towns. The State is by no means handed over to the negroes, and will not be.

 ''You old soldiers" he said, "don't envy those who lived lives of ease from '61 to '65. You don't regret the work you did then. do you?'

HINT TO NEW YORK EXPORTERS.

Anonymous Costa Rican in New Orleans
 Times-Democrat
 The people of the South and Central American countries look upon New Or leans as the natural market for all of their products. They do not know any other port in the country except New York, and there is nothing in New York to attract them. They want to come to New Orleans for the reason that they are more at home here than any other place, and they like the people here, and they like the way the merchants do business. The South American Is very peculiar. He likes to have the amenities of life mixed with his business transactions. He likes to have society enter into business and business enter into society. Whenever a merchant from any section of the country comes here he goes back home with tho idea that he has been to one of his own cities; that he has really just been mak- ing a visit to town for days trip. He finds here the generous hospitality that he left at home, the cheerful way of look ing at things. the same liberal accom- modations, and other things besides.

Trusts Are All Powerful.

Congressman Livingston of Georgia does not contemplate without feeling the recent order of the steel trust for the dismantling of the w. Dewees Wood plant in McKeesport. He says that "the removal of the Wood mill from McKeesport, if done, leaving hundreds of families with worthless homes on their hands, without work and In a ruined town, Illustrates the necessity for such action on the part of the labor commission as I contend for, and such Legislation by Congress, just and fair to both labor and capital If this cannot be had, then to that eA tent the commission has labored in vain."
 The commission was appointed to de- ceive, and no legislation by Congress will disappoint the trusts, least of all the contributing steel trust. Nothing will be done by the Mark Hanna party that the trusts do not approve, and the chief of all the trusts is the steel trust. The Mark Hanna plan of conducting Presidential campaigns has placed the administration under the control of the trusts. Through It the trusts own and control the people, and the people are helpless. They cannot readily change the administration, because money will be poured out of the trusts like water to prevent a change. The trusts are not really taxed in Presidential cam paigns, because under the Mckinley Dingley tariff they are permitted to levy all such expenses on the people themselves in the sale of goods that must be had and that can be purchased from the trusts only.
 The scheme Is by far the finest and most adroit and most gigantic scheme for robbing the many for the benefit of a few that has ever been contrlVeu The history of governments does not include it's equal. It is perpetual and almost automatic. It collects all ex- penses in an indirect and invisible way from the people, and it owns for its own purpose the entire machinery of government. There is no help for 1t. The billion-dollar trust is the perfect fruit of the system. and when it orders the destruction of McKeesport 1t knows what it's power Is. It knows how weak and scattering and inefficient the peo- pie have become. It knows Mark Hanna.
