VEGETABLE MEN
MEET AND ABSOLUTE AGAINST
 LICENSE FEE.
If License Is Not Reduced Buyers and Sellers of Vegetable Will Quit
 Wagons.

The fruit and vegetable growers met at M E. Bradford's produce store Wednesday afternoon to take some action against the license tax of s50 which has been imposed by the city council on peddlers of vegetables. The tax does not affect the peddler who sells vegetables of his own raising, put only the peddler who buys vege- tables and resells them. The home growers of vegetables say this works hardship on them because the ped Hers affected by the license will be forced to quit business, which neces- sarily means that not so many veget- ables will be sold, and the business of the growers will be lessened.
 t is not infrequent that one grower will be short occasionally and he purchases enough from a neighbor 10 make up for the deficiency, but this he can not do now, because he then becomes a buyer and seller of veget- a6les and must pay the tax of s50.
 Evidently it was not the intention i the council to curtail home indus tay, but if the vegetable men are cor rect that is what the council has done, aad it does appear that $50 is rather ? high special tax to be imposed upon any person dealing in a small way in home products. The business of the peddlers of homegrown vegetables is not one of large volume. and does not last throughout the entire year. as does the business of the merchant, the liveryman, etc, but only during the vegetable season.
 Many cities impose a heavy license tax on peddlers of imported" veget- ables so as to D. 1a+5it the competi- ton of the imported goods with the home grown, but an esoHbitant tax on home products is something a little bit out Of the ordinary.
 It is stated by one Of tie aldermen that the matter will be taken up at the next session of the council, and an amendment to the license ordi- nance, reducing the tax on vegetable peddlers. will be offered and that the indications are fair for its adoption.
 Mayor Bell has not issued an order for the collection of the tax yet, and will probably not do so before the next meeting Of the council.
 Tha resolution adopted bE the veg etahla men was as follows
 "Resolved. That as the license inl- posed 6E the city council on buying and selling vegetables in tae e.tT 5f= Pine BlUf is unjust. and as we are aII subject 10 road drtfr which is aalaI to days work or 5fa per eannHm: ana f safd c.fy c5unef will not recon sifer said license and redaea same to# $@d par annalm. we will buy and sell on orders.

A COINS QUEER HISTORY.
1t Cemented n Friendship Between
Two Rival Restaurnteurs.

(From the New York Mali and Express.l
There is a proprietor of popular cafe

tered coin which was struck from the
mint in 1869 The coin is only a 25-cent
piece. but il is safe to say that SIS could
not buy il, and the reason why is this
When the owner of the coin opened his
cafe. shortly after the civil war. he chose
a good location. and this fact, coupled
with his own vigorous personality,
brought him tiourishing trade. His bust
ness grew so rapidly that another cafe
was opened by rival directly across the
street The newcomer announced that
he was after a part of the trade in the

distinctly defiant and the customers OF
the established cafe wagged their heads

and waited for something to happen.
They We're not disappointed. for in the

throwing a shining quarter on the bar he
asked his rival to have something TO
drink So the men drank, while the crowd

AN OLD LOUISIANA MAP.
Part of the Mississippi as Traced
Over Century Gone By.


Col. Lewis Guion, of this city, has in his
possession the tracing of a map of Louis
lana made some years previous TO tne
time when that vast territory became
United States property. The tracing and
accompanying comments were made by
MAJOR Isaac Guion. of the United States
Army. who was the grandfather of Colo
mel Guion. The title of this interesting
and valuable relic reads: The course of
the Mississippi from Batiste to Fort Char
tres. agreeable to the American Atlas
published at London, England, rs. as

fourth Regiment, and improved Icy the

a well-known engineer of that time, VINO
had made elaborate surveys of all the
country along the Mississippi River from

practically complete. The section of
country contiguous to New Orleans shows
up rerna rkably well. and from il an eX-
cellcnt idea may be formed of the develop
ment of that section during this early
period.
The map possesses many interesting
features, among which might be mention
ed the ancient specimens of photography
which prevailed and the popularity of the
names of rivers. forts, and villages as
compared with those by which they are
known today. Many features of the map
are explained by notes the exclusive work
of Ma ior Guion. AS an instance of the
eccentricites of spelling the following
might prove of interest: Yazoo appears
'YaZous. for Alabama, "Alibomous."
and Tensas was spelled "Tainsas." Grand
Gulf was known as Great Gulf--a treach-
erous whirlpool" What is known now as
Bayou Goula was originally written
'Baya Gouas,' which was the name of
a famous Indian chief. and not a bayou
as is now generally supposed. The Ohio
River was Familiarity Known in those days

are richly embroidered. Every article OF
