Bureau.

Following is the snowfall bulletin
for March, issued by the Nevada Sec

evera ranges and settled the water
question for the coming season to the
entire satisfaction of all concerned.

Mississippi State News


There will be no extra session Of
the Mississippi State legislature.
The Governor bases his declination
to convene the Legislature in extra
ordinary session upon the fact, as he
finds it, that the necessary relief
would not come by this step. His
poll of the Legislature developed the
fact that only ffty-fye members
agreed to vote for an amendment to
the valued policy law exempting all
personal property from the operation
Of the law. The Governor found a
majority of the members in favor Of
amending the law as to cotton alone.
The Governor also found that the in
surance companies would not write
blanket policies on an amendment
as to cotton alone, and that many of
them would not write them at all un-
less the entire valued policy law
was repealed as to personally. Only
fourteen members of the legislature
we're in favor Of repeating the law in
toto.

There is now every probability
that the cold veterans" Of Mississip-
pi will be gratifed in their desire
to have the cornerstone Of the new
capitol laid on the birthday of Pres
ident Jefferson Davis.
The capitol commissioners have
never taken any action on the mat
ter despite the strong concurrent
resolution adopted by the house and
senate at their last session, request
ing the commission to fix the date on
June 3, the anniversary Of the birth
Of Mr.. Davis.
In its session, just closed at Hat
tiesburg, the reunion meeting of the
Mississippi veterans passed a rosolu-
ton preferring a similar request,
and this resolution will doubtless be
laid before the commission when it
meets next month.
Maj. r. A. Dean and Col. W. H,
Stovall, of the capitol commission,
have expressed themselves as favor
ing the birthday of Jefferson Davis
as the date for laying the corner
stone, provided, Of course, the build
ing shall be ready by that date. The
commissioners say that the good Of
the State is first to be considered.

Frost Facts,

NJ. A. Jones, a farmer residing a
few miles from Aberdeen, has a tab
ulated statement Of dates of "Grst'
and "killing frostS" covering the
past twenty-eight years, without
missing date. 1t shows that the
earliest ''flrst frost" was that of Sep
tember IA, 1902, and the latest were
those of November 4, 1881 and 1900.
The earliest killing frost was on
October s, 1889, and the last was
November 20, 1881. These dates
we're scored in the timbered region
of Monroe county and are interest
ing, inasmuch as the appearance of
frost figures materially in the sea-
sons yield of cotton.

the remains of 3s victims of the
panic of shiloh church being Inferred
in the various cemeteries for negroes
around the city. All the negro
churches were crowded, and the nat
urally excitable nature of the south
ern negro was wrought to a high
pitch by the eulogistic sermons over
the dead bodies at the various
churches.
The death list is now known to
number lO5, and 100 of these have
been identified. The police assert
that in addition at least five bodies
were taken to private hospitals, This
would swell the number to 40. Al
nearly all the churches for whites
sums were raised to assist the ne
groes who are unable to give their
dead proper burial and a fund aggre'
eating $500 has been accumulated.

as Speaker

Chicago, Sept. 22.-David B. Hem
derson, speaker Of the national house
of representatives,, passed through
Chicago Sunday on his way to Allan
tic City, where he win join Mrs. Hem
derson. Before leaving for the east,
Speaker Henderson reiterated his de-
cision to retire from the congression-
al race in Iowa, denied any intention
of "abdicating" his present position
until his term of office shall have ex-
pired, and declared himself in perfect
accord with the tariff views of Pres
ident Roosevelt, as enunciated in his
Cincinnati speech.

fighting for protection for American
industries and American labor, and l
shall not be party to any juggling
at this late day" the speaker said.
"President Roosevelt's tariff views
set forth in his Cincinnati speech
coincide with my own. There is no
difference in our belief. His speech
was a strong one, and it has my
hearty Endorsement"
"Then the differences are confined
to your own state?' was asked.
"Yes, largely. Let the new lights
shine"
The speaker smiled broadly as he
used the phrase

SENDING MONEY BY MAIL.

1t does not follow that because two
or more articles for the same use are
sold to the public at the same price
they are both of equal value; one may
have decided advantages over the 9TH
er, making it much cheaper.
Notwithstanding the rates to ths
public for the various kinds Of money
orders are the sams the Express Mon
ey Order, by reason of its greater ad-
vantages, is cheaper and those familiar
with the Express Money Order system
use it in preference.
Postoffice Orders require written ap-
pilcation giving amount Of order, name
and location Of payee, and name Of
purchaser. Some people do not write
legibly, hence orders are not always
correctly drawn by postmaster, caus-'
ing delay in payment and annoyance
to payee. They are not payable upon
presentation unless postmaster has
received advice Of issue. Such adYiCes
are often delayed, may have been sent
to wrong postofice, put into wrong
mail or not forwarded promptly, thus
causing inconvenience to payee loss Of
time and possible loss in other ways.
They are payable only at the partlc-
ular office upon which drawn; there
fore the system is not convenient to
payees and is too limited in its aVaila-
bility, They must not bear more than
one Endorsement; hence impracticable
for use as exchange beyond single
Endorsement. If not presented within
one year they are invalid, and to OBJ
tain duplicate application must be
made to Department at Washington.
Express Money Orders require no
written application and cases where
incorrectly drawn and payment de-
layed are practically unknown. They
are payable Immediately upon pre-
sentation, no advice to wait for. They
are payable everywhere, at any office,
whether in one city or another makes
no difference. Merchants know this,
therefore do not hesitate to cash them
for anyone they know. The butcher,
banker, grocer, druggist, baker, any
express company, in fact, anyone will
gladly give their full face value be-
cause they are practically better than
gold, for, If lost, money will be re-
funded They may pass through any
number of hands and still be nego-
table. With an Express Order the
holder can pay his rent, the landlord
his grocery bill, the grocer his taxes,
and so on may single order be used
to pay a dozen bills without affecting
its validity. They are better than cur
rency, because safer to use and are
cheaper because unlimited for use as
exchange. They are always good, as
there is no limit as to time of pay
ment. They are free from red tape re
, strictions, and, without question, art
, the cheapest and most conyenien
method OF remitting money by mail.
