RECONSTRUCTION IN MISsIS-
STPPI.

Reconstruction in Mississippi" Is
the title of work to be published i'm
mediately by the Mcmillan Company.
The author, Mr.. James MILFORD Gar
ner, Ph.M., is a Fellow in Political
Science in Columbia University and
member of the Mississippi Historical
Society. The primary purpose of
this book is to give detailed and
critical study OF the working out In
its different phases, political, econon-
ic social and legal, of the so called pres
idential and congressional policies of
reconstruction In Mississippi. As a
sort of preliminary study the author
has devoted several chapters to the
study of Secession and the Civil War
in which is discussed with more or
less fulness the development of the
Seces sion sentiment, the leading mill
tary campaigns and raids, the political
and economic aspects of the war, Gov
eminent of unoccupied territory by
the Military Commanders, the devel-
opment Of the peace sentiment the H.
nal collapse of the Confederacy and
the public and private status at the
conclusion of peace.
The chapters on the presidential
policy deal with the administration of
Provisional Governor Sharkey, the
r construction Convention of 1865,
con flicts between the civil and militia
nv uthorities and the status of the
free Omen in 1865. In succeeding chap
tiers the author discusses the economic
problems of reconstruction, includ-
ing the military administrations Of
Generals Slocum, Wood, Ord, Gill
lem, Mcdowell and Ames; the regis
tration of the new electorate and the
reconstruction convention of 1868;
politics in 1867, 1868 and 1869; the
Freedmen's Bureau; and the re-estab-
lishment of civil government in 1870.
Relieving it necessary to an intelli-
gent judgment of the merits or de-
merits of the Congressional policy,
the author has carried this narrative
down to the overthrow of the carpet
baggers, an event locally known as the
Revolution of 1875. In the treatment
of the carpet bag period, he discusses
in detail the administrations of Gov
ernors Alcorn and Ames, the extrava-
gance, the officials, riots and race con-
fiicts, the Kuklux troubles, education
al recon struction, the great election
campaign of 1875, the impeachment of
State officials and the Democratic re-
form legislation Of 1915.

Lamar Captured and AnOthe
Murder.

A private letter received from Wealth
ersby, dated yesterday, gives the par
ticulars of the capture of Oliver Lamar,
the murderer of poor Will Sanders,
and the killing of Mr.. Jones, who
had told where Lamar was hid. The
letter says: "Lamar was caught Tues
day night about seven miles from
Weathersby, at Mr.. Jones house.
Mr.. Jones son came to town and told
that Lamar was at his fathers, and
went back to see about it. If he was
still there, he was to shoot his pistol to
let them know. Lamar saw Mr.. Brown
the deputy sheriff, and was trying to
escape. He got behind stump, but
on being told to drop his pistol, get up
and come to him, did So" The letter
goes on to state that after the arrest of
Lamar, young Jones was shot dead by
man named French for having be-
trayed Lamar. Both French and La
mar are now in the Westville jail

NEW YACHTS BEAM.
Detail VIII Allow for Greater Sails
Than the Columbia.

From what has been learned In connec-
ton with the cup defender under construc-
ton at Bristol R l., fair idea can be OBJ
tanned of the beam breadth of the new
boat 1t is from a knowledge of the sweep
Of bilge curve of one of the frames that Is
to be placed in the forward section of the
beat that the Inference is drawn. From Its
upper end a tape line drawn straight in
board so as to be plumb with the shank or
butt of the frame when the latter is set up
in place on the keel in vertical position.
will measure II feet H. inches. This is
not exactly a half BREADTH there is an
intervening space at the butt of the frame
the width of the lead keel as nearly as can
be estimated, 10 inches.
These matters go to show that the width
obtained from measurements from the out
board end of this particular frame to a
plumb line is almost half the beam at that
point Plus that amount is % feet II inches.
and Is inches added would give the total as
% feet inches at that point, which, it Is
said. is not the broadest by inches.
From these figures which cannot be veri-
fed officially at this time, the greatest
breadth of beam Of the boat will be d
of Columbia is "a feet 2la inches, which
shows that she is not wide the Bel
mont syndicate racer by foot ~ inches.
This matter considered. it is safe to as
sumo that the concentration of the big bulb
of lead far forward in the lead keel Of
the new boat. with a wider beam than Co
lumbia'S, will give the craft much more
power, and consequently greater sail area
than that of Columbia.
