An Appeal for Beauvoir.

Gen. 0. L. Mackay, recently elect
ed commander of the Mississippi di-
vision of the United Sons of Con-
federate Veterans, has issued an ell
oquent appeal to the Confederate
Veterans, Sons and Daughters of
the Confederacy and to all loyal, pa
triotic and public-minded people of
Mississippi to assist in raising the
balance of the $4,000 fund neces-
sary to the purchase of Beauvoir,
amounting to ST, SEQ.
Gen. Mackay also appeals to those
parties having in charge lists of sub
scriptions to this fund heretofore
made to actively enter upon the duty
of collecting the same and at once
remit, with such additional subscrip-
tions as may be made, to Brigadier
Commander Geo. c. Myers of Holly
Springs, who is duly authorized to
receive the same. The appeal con-
cludes as follows:
Let there be such a prompt and
general response to this appeal ere
another month begins Beauvoir will
be in possession of the United Sons
of Confederate Veterans and the
Mississippi Home for Confederate
soldiers and sailors be an assured
fact"

Mississippi Day.

The State board of education has
issued a manifesto fixing December
10 as mississippi Day." and an
nounced an official program for the
celebration Of the event.
Believing that one of the most
important functions of the public
school is to inculcate thorough To-
cal patriotism and to stimulate a
genuine State pride, the State board
of education has fixed the 10th day
of December, the anniversary of the
admission Of the State into the Fed
Grated Union, as Mississippi Day, to
be celebrated by such suitable exer-
cises as the teachers may consider
appropriate to the commemoration
of that important event and the
most prominent epochs in the his
tory of the State. Speeches, recita-
tons and songs calculated to ac-
quaint the children with a knowl-
edge of the States splendid re-
sources and to perpetuate the men,
ory of the general material progress
of the State; the patriotism, trials
and sufferings of her people, their
triumphs and reverses. Especial at
tention, in the judgment of this
board, should be given to the mo-
tives which actuated the heroism and
sacrifices Of the last generation in
order that in the young and growing
generation the integrity and truth
of history may be preserved, and
that they may gather therefrom the
inspiration and lofty principles
which taught the civilized world its
greatest lessons as to the real moral
strength and intellectual power of
modern times"

The world has finally made up its min6 to
call him great;
His voice is gravely listened TO within the
halls OF state.
The people turn TO see hin pass,
He has a lofty air,
But now ard then he still is glad
Deep in his Heart. toteek the fair
Old scores bis boyhood knew and hear
Them call him Johnny there.
He gravely signs his name in full hun
dred times a Gay
To documents ma0e precious when he takes
his pen away;
A dozen secretaries stand
In lire behind his chair.
But far away a little town
StiIl nestles sweetly, clamly where
1t used to in the hills. and he
Is known as Johnny there.
'Tis well for people and for state that
mighty power lies
Within his grasp; It's well that Fate has
kindly lst him rise,
For he whose power grows may not
Stray very tar from where
His duty is who longs sometimes
To put aside his lorGly air
Ard seek the fair OLD scenes ard hear
Them call him "Johnny" there.

Mississippi State News


Some of the exhibits at the Co
lumbus fair last week are attracting
much attention and comment, as IL
lustrating the possibilities of Mis-
sissippi, and as demonstrating the
fact that she has before her a great
future, both as a manufacturing and
an agricultural State. What can be
done with the soil of Mississippi
with well directed effort is well illus
trated by the exhibits from the farm
of L. W. Payne, a very prosperous
farmer and horticulturist of Column
bus, on the Alabama & Mississippi
line. Mr.. Payne exhibited at the
fair eleven varieties of apples, two
of peaches and two of pairs, all
splendid specimens of fruit, and all
Of his own graft, and these speci-
mems are taken from an orchard of
twelve acres. Mr.. Payne CRAFTS his
own fruits, and has been wonderful
ly successful as fruit grower. Be
sides this orchard he has a poultry
farm stocked with mammoth bronze
turkeys and several standard varie-
ties of pure bred chickens. Mr..
Payne's wife also had on exhibition
a number of varieties of canned
goods, grown by himself and put up
in tins by his wife. All Of his ex-
hibits captured premiums.
Another exhibit still more inter-
esting in character was from the
textile department Of the A. and M.
College, and consisted of two looms
run by gasoline engine which were
kept in operation daily and which
turned out yards ofginghams, plaids,
domettes and fine madras cloth of
the highest grade. The madras

HuIls VIII Be Held.

Governor Longino has not yet
acted upon the acquisitions from
Gov. Davis of Arkansas in the case
of the Hull family, wanted in Chicot
county for resisting arrest and shoot
ing with intent to kill Sheriff
Strong. The parties are still held
at Vicksburg. Sheriff Shannon of
Coahoma county is extremely anx-
ious to get the prisoners for trial up
there. He stated that he had charg-
es against the parties which will send
them to the penitentiary for eight
years. Sheriff Shannon says he
will eonfscate the whisky boat also,
and that the boat is worth $4,000.
He says that Hull and his crew fired
on the authorities Of his county two
years ago under similar cireum-
stances as the Arkansas case. 1t is
now practically certain that the Ark
ansas acquisitions will be denied for
the present and the prisoners will
go to Coahoma county for trial.
