GET THE FACTORY

Now that a large furniture factory
Of Rockford, ILL.,, has purchased a
large tract of timber land in this
county, why can't Greenville offer
them enough inducements to come
here and put up their factory while
WORKING up the material. We can
offer them the best of water, rail road
and river facilities, electricity, cheap
coal, cheap iron, factory site and a
home for themselves in progressive

Major Jas. K Vardaman is without
doubt the most eloquent and gifted
orator in Mississippi today. Next
Monday night he will address the
people of Greenville at the opera
house on his candidacy for governor,
and every one who can should go
and hear him The ladies are es-
pecially invited to attend. From the
newspapers and the Travelling men
we are told that Major Vsrdaman is
growing stronger in all parts of the
state. While smany do not agree
with him i'll his ideas of negro edu-
cation, still his honesty and his open
announcement of the demagogue and
office seeking politician wins their
support. The people Of Mississippi are
becoming tired of the politician and
pie hunter and are determineud to
elect man next year who will get
his Office or votes and not promises,
and when in, turn the gang out. This
Major Vardaman promises to do il

THT PRESIDENTIAL BEAR HUNT.

Mr.. John N. Parker, Of this city,
originator of the Presidential bear
hunt, and one of the party to accom-
pany President Roosevelt upon the
camp in teh heart of the Mississippi
cane brakes on Sunfower River, re-
turned to the city last night in COM
pany with Mr.. John McIllheny, of
New Iberia "a personal friend of the
president and one of his lieutenants
of Rough Riders, and told something
of the five days spent in the jungle
hunting for bruin.
''Three bears were killed." said
Mr.. Parker, "but none of them was
killed by any of the party. The first
was very large he-bear which was
poor conditioned. The dogs ran him
for three hours and finally brought
him to bay in water hole where he
put up savage fight. He killed the
first dog that got to him and seriously
injured several Others before Holt Col
lier, the negro owner of the pack,
could get to him and club him over
the head with his rife and thus save
his dogs. The old bear had the dogs
whipped off and when You look at
these you will scarcely wonder why"
Here Mr.. Parker went into his
pocket and brought forth the souvenirs
of old bruins fight. He had three
long, curved sharp black claws and
two whitish yellow fangs, even long
er than the claws, after taken out
of the head, and sharp and ugly
looking.
SOUVENIRS OF THE TRIP.
"These claws were what proved the
death of the first dog and the injury
of the others, commented Mr.. Park
or. "He was strong old fellow and
full of savage fight and the claws are
sharp as razors. He used them and
ripped the dog with disastrous effect.
1t was this bear that Holt Collier
tied up and which the president re-
fused to shoot.
"The next KILLED was fat She
bear who led the dogs long chase
and who was worried to death by
thier attacks. Not a shot was fired
at this one. The third was killed a

TO CHICAGO MURDERER

Chicago, Aug. 1.-THE police OBJ
tanned their first clew of value in the
Bartholin case last night, and deyel-

ing the mystery are expected. In

woman who declared that at day

night on which Minnie Mitchell dis
appeared in company with William
Bartholin, she saw oscar Thompson,
driver for a laundry, and who is now
held in custody by the police; John
Claffy. the barn boss for the same
concern. and a man wearing a Pan
anna hat and a dark sack coat where
Minnie Mitchells body was found.
They were going back and forth in
the weeds and acting in a suspicious
manner. The police think the man
with the Panama hat was Bartholin,
When Thompson was told of being
seen with Bartholin the morning fol
lowing the murder he nearly col
lapsed. 1t is believed Thompson has
a guilty knowledge of the murder, and
before long he will weaken and tell

Care Of the Eyes

An authority on the care of the eyes
emphasizes the fact that in this day Of
reckless misuse of the eyesight the
rules laid down must consist Of warn
ings regarding things to be avoided.
His advice is in the main as follows:
First-Do not use the eyes in poor
light, or too far from a good light.
SccOnd-DO not have the body in the
way of the light, nor the light directly
in front One Is almost as bad as the
other. The light should fall without
interruption from one side.
Third-Do not use the eyes much
when recovering from illness. or when
very tired.
Fourth-Do not use the eyes till they
become watery. or show signs of indis-
.tinctness of vision.
Fifth-Do not work with head bent
over. This tends to gorge the vessels
Of the eyes with blood, and produce
congestion.
Sixth-Do not read lying lat on the
back or reclining. unless the book is
supported in the same relative angle,
and position as when erect This is so
difficult to do that It is better not ia
attempt il.
Seventh--Do not so a single day
without glasses after You should put
them on.
