TEDDY IN MISSISSIPPI
lie WILL HUNT BEARS NEAR GREEN
VILE WITH THREE GOVERNORS.
Declines the Invitation of the Ozark fiuat-
ing and Fishing Club Therefor.

Memphis, Nov. 9-The CONNER
cial- Appeal tomorrow will say:
President Roosevelt and party will
not be the guests of the Ozark Hunt
ing and Fishing Club this week, but,
on the contrary, will go after bear in
the vicinity of Greenville, Miss.
John H. Mcdowell, president of the
Ozark Hunting and Fishing Club, late
Saturday night received message
from George B. Cortelyou, secretary
to the president, in which he ex-
pressed regret that it would be impos-
sible for the presidential party to ac-
cept the invitation of the club TINS
week for its bear hunt.
From another source it is authorita-
lively stated that President Roosevelt,
Secretary Cortelyou and President
Stuyvesant Fish of the Illinois Central
road, will leave New York on a
special train Tuesday. They will stop
off at Louisville Wednesday night,
where a reception will be rendered
them. They will then come on south
to Memphis, where their train will
go over the Yazoo and Mississippi
Valley road to a camp which has been
established near Smead, in Sharkey
county, Miss.
At the Smead camp the distin-
guisehd party will be the guests of
Governor Longino of Mississippi; ;
Governor Davis of Arkansas, and
Governor Heard of Louisiana. They
will remain in camp until the morn
ing of the 10Th when they will return
to Memphis in time to participate in
the ceremonies to be given in honor
of Gen. Luke Wright.
Hoke Collier, a negro, who is owner
of the most famous pack of dogs in
the delta, has been employed 10 so on
the hunt, and for the past week has
been giving the animals every atten
tion. He left his home near Green
vile on Saturday, bound for Smead
with his dogs, and will have them
well rested by the time the president
and his party arrives.
1t is stated that President Roosevelt
has been under promise TO the three
Revernors for some time TO join them
in bear hunt in, the Mississippi
delta, but that his time has been so
well occupied that. the opportunity
for fulfilling this promise did not
present itself until he found that he
would be in this section of the country
at the time of the Wright reception.

Hit Him Again.

4 small church Was sadly in need
of general repairs, and meeting
was held IN it with vleW of raising
funds for the purpose. The minister
having said $500 would be required,
a very wealthy, (and equally stingy)
member of the church rose and said
he would give one dollar. Just as
he sat down. however, IA lump OF
plaster fell from the ceiling and hit
him on the head, whereupOn he rose
up hastily and called out that he
had made a mistake-he would give
$50. This was too much for an en-

forgetful of everything, called out
fervently. 30, Lord, hit him again -

A slow. moderate snow storm started

"A slow, moderate snow storm started
in, Saturday noon, and continued for "a
hours with scarcely any intcrrnission.
The flakes came down in "a lazy, iidif-
ferent sort of way, as if they didn't cAre
whether they ever reached earth or not.
AS result, not more than seven or
eight inches covered the ground when,
on Sunday afternoon, the snownakes
turned into rain. The rain, too, was
slow in coming. The drops were few
and far between. Along about o'clock,
however. the wind had swerved around
to the eastward and a thunder storm
occurred. Thunder showers in Febru-
airy are not very common. and much
surprise was expressed because this one
made its appearance. Two brilliant
flashes of lightning were noticed and
two terrific peals Of thunder were
heard ard then the rain came along in
binding sheets. And it kept coming,
too, and the lightning kept on accom-
panying it. There was no let-up all
the evening long and If the snow doesn't
disappear in less time than it took to
come 1t will be a wonder.
