AN EXTENSIVE BENEFlCENCE.

Cecil Rhodes, the noted citizen Of
Great Britain, who went to South
Africa and by developing the extern
sive diamond fields in that section, be-
came very wealthy thereby, died a
few days ago. Rhodes was a most
remarkable man and by many people
he has been charged with bringing
about the present var between the
Beers and Great Britain. Be that as
it may, he was a man who possessed
wonderful traits and who looked far
ahead of his age in many respects.
While the Boer war is a shame on the
nation prosecuting it, no one man
caused 1t. 1t is but the outgrowth
of that grasping spirit which charac-
terizes the English people and Rhodes
was but n Of the many who contri.
buted their share towards bringing it
about. But he had a great scheme to
be consummated after he was dead,
which was commendable and patrio-
tic in its intention and wide in it's
scope. In his will he left sufficient
money to provide scholarships in Ok
ford University for a certain number
of young in all the British colonies,
in Germany and in the United States.
The two latter provisions have attrac-
ted most attention. Five scholarships
are allotted to Germany and two to
each state and territory of the United
States. The donor says that the peo-
pie of these two countries are the most
progressive in the world and that he
desires to draw these two and his OWL
nation closer together. Regarding the
American scholarships, Mr.. Rhodes
says in his will:
whereas, | desire to encourage
and foster an appreciation of the ad-
vantages which | implicitly believe
will result from a reunion of the Eng
fish speaking peoples throughout the
world, and to encourage in the stu
dents from the United States who will
bentit by these scholarships an attach
ment to the country from which they
have sprung. but without, l hope, with
drawing them or their sympathies
from the land of their adoption or
birth"
The will has attracted worldwide
attention, as its application is SO ex-
tensive, and, while its objects may
fail of consummation in the main, it
will do no harm. 1t is, to say the
least, a great plan, worthy of a care
full test. 'f

satisfactory. He may plod along his

old rut? Why not turn his attention
to truck farming as others in Missis-
sippi have done? The soil is here,
the shipping facilities are sufficient,

source Of from five or ten times as

extends into West Tennessee, where
thousands of acres of land are devoted
to raising vegetables and small fruits,
especially strawberries. The banks
in one town in that section last year
handled $3.50, 900 on the tomato crop
alone. Just as much success may be
had in and about Grenada.

Good, Sound Sense.

The following from the Mississippi
Bureau Of the New Orleans Picayune
is true to the core and fits the senti-
ments of the SENTINEL exactly:
The Aberdeen Examiner announces
that candidates for county ofic-
es at the next general election are al
ready publishing their announcements
in some of the counties, and says:
These early birds are trying to To-
cate the worm ere it goes into chry-
sails to emerge as an u%ncatchable but
teriy, sporting from flower or from
candidate to candidate"
1t is a safe prediction that nine out
of ten candidates who announce for Of
fees this year, to be elected next year,
will be defeated. The man who has
nothing else to do but run for an Office
for nearly two years before the cleo
ton must have nothing else to do in
the meantime, and the taxpayers are
not apt to elect men to Office who
have been failures in private affairs.

In discussing American Religion
Crisis" Rev. DIR. George Lorimer,
pastor of the Madison Avenue Baptist
church, New York, said: Religion,
especially evangelical religion, is to-
day of very low validity. The atten-
dance at church service is shamefully
small. We are attacked by secular
writers. They tell us that the minis
try is deteriorating, that the churches
have lost their influence to the schools,
and that education alone can encom-
pass all the activities of life. They
say that the churches spend more for
the sup~erfluitieS Of life than for the
gospel, and point with Scorn at the
ice cream supper and other cheapening
methods of obtaining money to sup
port the gospel. They condemn us
for sending missionaries abroad when
our people are spiritually starving at
home. But however true the accusa-
tions may be in part, they are over.
drawn. They must be taken with
allowance. Yet a thoughtful MAI
will not ignore them. He must adj
nit that there is a crisis in American
religious ife.-Okolona Messenger.

more pleasant to take, more mild and

Congressman Patterson, of Tennes-
see, introduced a resolution in Con-
gress a few days ago which has placed
the republicans in somewhat of a
tangle. 1t was to abolish slavery in
the new possessions in the East.
Now, the republicans have already
agreed with the ruler of Sulu that
the slavery conditions in those islands
are not to be disturbed, and slavery
also exists in the Philippines. Since
its founding the party now in power
has opposed slavery: in fact, its be-
ginning grew out of the fight against
that practice, and it "a easily see the
ridiculous side of u~pholding it, even
in the far distant islands, but it will
never do to simply submit to the reso-
luton being passed. How to get out
of the box is the question just now.
There is no telling which way they
will jump.

Channel TO Sea

Bids were opened yesterday in Phil
|adelphia at the Office of the Govern
ment engineer for the work of con-
structing a bulldhead in the Delaware
river at Dan Baker and Stony Point
Shoals. When the contractors essen
bled Lieutenant-Colone G. w. Ray
mond was on hand TO open the en-
velopes and supervise the tabulating of
the estimates.
This tabulation and the subsequent
comparison disclosed the fact that the
Sanford & Brooks Company, of Balti-
more, Nd, were the lowest bidders, the
total Of their bid being s236, ,41250. The
engineer in charge under the law will
recommend that they be warded the
contract.
Congress authorized an expenditure
OF 100000 for the improvement of the
Delaware river. The bid of the Ameri-
can Dredging Company for the
dredging and depositing of
material will take $1,599 100. leaving
81, 400 800 available. After the total of
1896 412.50 for materials under yester-
days contract is subtracted it will still
leave a balance of S164,4SS.50 out Of
which to provide for the work of con-
verting the material purchased yester-
day into a bulldhead. OF the total
amount authorized by law 5000 600 is
available at the present time.
