Funeral of Bishop Thompson.

Bishop Hugh Miller Thompson
was inferred in st. Columb's Chapel,
at Jackson, last week. He was laid
in vault beneath the chancel which
he had caused to be prepared when
the chapel was built about twelve
years ago in anticipation Of his own
death.
In the morning holy communion
was celebrated at st. Columb's
chapel, the family, many friends, the
visiting bishops and clergy being
present to partake of the sacrament.
In the afternoon the funeral process
sion left Battle Hill, the bishops
residence. About twenty Of the
most distinguished members of the
clergy present were designated as
honorary pallbearers. Arriving at
st. Andrews church the funeral cor
tege was met by procession com=
posed Of the choir, clergy and the
visiting bishops present, who had
formed in St. Andrews. The cas-
ket containing the remains of the
bishop was taken into the church
and the burial service for the dead
was read.
After the service the funeral pro-
cession was then reformed with a
number of visiting delegations in the
line of march. There was an espe-
cially large delegation from Trinity
church in New Orleans, Of which
Bishop Thompson had been rector
for many years before he became
bishop. The procession proceeded
to St. Columb's chapel, where the re-
mains Of the dead were laid to rest
with the usual ceremonies. In adj
dition to the visiting delegations the
following bishops were present:
Garrett of Texas, Sessums of Louis
lana, Nelson of Georgia and Gailor
of Tennessee.

THE NEW PACIFIC CABLE.
Between San Francisco and Hon.
Olulu Within Six Months,

Washington, Nov. 22.-Secretary
Moody, Friday, directed that the Nero
soundings be turned over to the Pa
cifc Cable Co.
This action resulted from a confer
ence between Secretary Moody and
Rear-Admiral Bradford, chief of the
bureau of equipment, in regard to the
proposition of the Commercial Pacific
Cable Co. to construct cable from
San Francisco to Honolulu. The sec
rotary has authorized the admiral to
turn over the soundings made by the
navy department to the Pacific Cable
Co. as soon as the necessary papers
have been drawn up.
As a result of the secretary's de-
termination to relinquish the sound
ings of the Nero in return for con-
cessions to the government in cable
rates and in military use of the ca
BILE, it is expected that cable will
be in operation between San Francis
co and Honolulu within six months,
and work then will be pushed on the
line between Honolulu and Manila.

Treasurer Lampton's Bond.

The bond of State Treasurer
Hampton will be made in two surety
companies instead of one. The en-
tire bond for quarter of million
dollars was made by one company,
which promptly re-insured the part
it did not care to carry. A further
examination Of the law, however,
has revealed the fact that the surety
company cannot make an official
Mississippi bond for over one-tenth
of the amount Of its capital stock.
The company in question has a cap
ital OF 81, 100000, and it can, there
fore, under this provision, only make
the bond for $160,00O. The rest of
the bond, amounting to 100000,
will be placed in another company.

Capt. Frank was about "a years old,

oyster Tax Income.

It now looks very much like the

what was expected. 1t was predict

Of which $4,000 was to be used for
