How lie Spent Sunday at the Bear Hun.
tefs Camp With Othes,.

A great deal has been written about
the presidents bear hunt in Missis-
sippi, but nothing more interesting
has appeared than an interview with
Holt Collier, the negro guide and hun
ter, by a representative of the New
York World. Collier is hunter of
more than local reputation and has
killed thousand bears in his life
time. After telling a lot of things
about the hunt and of incidents occur
ring thereon, he told in the following
language how the President spent Sun
day and Of the kind words that dis
tinguished parsonage spoke of the
South:
The Sunday spent in camp, except
for a fine dinner, with turkey gobbler,
'possum and sweet 'taters, was quiet.
cause none of the folks in the camp
cared to hunt on Sunday. The Pres
ident said before dinner that he want
ed to take a stroll off i'm the woods.
and some of the gentlemen told him
to take his gun, but he just walked
away, saying he had not been alone
since he was President, SO he wanted
to be alone for little while. He
then went off and sat down by the
creek, and when he came in for din
ner he ate big meal. The party had
the best cook they could get. Pope
Swfnt, from Egremont, is man who
knows more about cooking bear meat
than any man, recond, in the Delta,
and he does cook up things to taste.
/ was talking to Mr.. Roosevelt and he
said that he had some mighty fine
hunts and had run mountain lions and
moose and had some good times, but
he said that he never did enjoy hunt
any more than he did his Mississippi
hunt. He said that he liked the
Southern people, and he told some of
the gentlemen in the party that
he was elected Or not again
he would surely come right back to
Smedes two years from now and take
another hunt"

MANUFACTURING IN THE SOUTH.

The day was when manufacturing
was done in the South to very limi-
ted extent. The people did not turn
their attention in that direction, but
rather devoted their time and talents
to tilling the soil and raising raw pro-
ducts. But there is a limit to the
market for raw products, and the field
for disposing of such was growing
more limited. The time was coming
when there would be very little money
to be made by agriculture alone. A
dense population cannot subsist on
farming alone. To be supported there
must be manufacturing. The increase
in manufacturing since 1850 has far
outstripped the increase in popula-
tion. The latter has increased two
and one-half fold. while the capital
invested in manufacturing enterprises
is seventeenfold greater. The follow
ing figures will give an idea OF how
the growth has been distributed
among the various Southern states:
Alabama, in 1860, had only SO, 900,
900 invested in manufactures. In
1890 the manufacturing interests of
Alabama had risen to $46, 900, 900, and
in 1900 to $7O,OOO,OOO.
Arkansas, in 1860, had $1,000, 900
of manufactures; in 1890, $15, 600, 900,
and in 1900 $50, 900, 900.
Florida, in 1860, had 81, OOO, 900; in
1890, $11 200, 900, and in 1900, $685.
100000.
Georgia, in 1850, had $1l, ZOO, 600;
in 1890, $57,0O0,0 900, and in 1900,
800, ,OOO, 900.
Louisiana, in 1860, had 81, 900, 900 of
manufactures. In 1890, $35, 200, 900,
and in 1900, s113, 200, 900.
Mississippi, in 1860, had $4 ZOO. 900;
in 1890, $4,000, 900, and in 1900,
$50, ,OOO, 900.
: North Carolina, in 1860, had $1O,-
O0O, 900; in 1890, $33, 600, 900; in 1900, |

South Carolina, in 1860, had invest |
ed in manufactures 81 200, 900; in 1890,

Tennessee, in 1860, had 81, OOO, 600; |
in 1890, $51 900, 900; in 1900, $72,-

BOOKER WASHINGTON DID NOT
DINE WITH PRESIDENT ROOSE-
WELT AND FAMILY.

II Gen. Marcus J. Wright, a promi.
nent citizen and democrat Of Wash
ingtOn, and a near relative OF Gen.
Luke E. Wright, is to be believed, the
dining incident between Booker Wash
ington and President Roosevelt has
been greatly exaggerated. 1t has been
given undue Importance and weight.
General Wright was in Memphis to
attend the reception given his dstin-
guished relative and while there he in
conversation with Il numbcr OF promi-
nent business men told the following
facts which were printed IN Tuesday S
Commercial Appeal:
Now, as you all know, am DEM
ncrat, and have never voted any other
ticket in my life. For the past twen-
ty-threc years, however. l have been
resident OF Washington. and have
had no opportunity Of exercising my
franchise. But when 4 man has been
SO woefully misunderstood, even il he
is my political opponent, believe it a
duty to set the matter right before
the people.
The whole truth Of the matter is
this: President Roosevelt had been
anxious for some time to obtain a
truthful light on the situation in the
south. Finally, at the suggestion of
number Of southern and northern
men of both great political parties, he
sent a message to Booker Washington
asking him to come to the capitol for
conference regarding the negro. his
needs ard his capabilities. Washing
ton came, and the conference which
was started in the Presidents execu-
tive Office and was changed to his pri-
vate Office because OF repeated inter-
ruptiunS. continued for five hours.
I'm the midst OF the conference be-
tween the President and Washington,
lunch was sent in to the chief execu-
tive OF tie nation. Desiring to con-
tinue the conversation, and rather
than lose the time necessary for
Washington to 20 to lunch, President
Roosevelt thereupon ordered that
lunch be served to the negro educator
in the same room.
Now this was all there was to that
story. W;lsh:nStt,l did not dine at
the White House table, did not break
breas. with the 'reh!denf's wife and
daughter, and was in no sense a guest
upon terms "f s;k:iai equality"
When asked why the President had
never seen tit tO have this statement
made public, he said:
Because lie is too great Il man. He
belived that it was beneath him to de-
ny story 50 palpai,ly false, and that
the truth would in time prevail.''

GREATEST BATTLES or WORLD.
Casualties in Some of the Principal
 Engagements in the Civil War.


 New Orleans Times Democrat.
 Speaking of the Confederate reunion at Dallas" said a statfsucian who hao given some study to the results of the war between the States. reminds me of a table ran across recently which dealt with the killed, wounded and missing during the principal engagements of that great struggle. Take Gettysburg, for in- stance. and we find that 3.0z0 Federal soldiers were killed, against 2.5o2 Con- tsderate. We find that ia,ls7 Federal so1- diers were wounded and 5,4S4 were re- ported missing. against 12.706 ConfedeTato wounded and 5.150 missing. At the battle of Charlottesville. 1.6o6 Federals were killed. 9,762 were wounded and 5.9f9 were reported missing. At the same baftle ,665 Confederates were Killed. 9,081 were wounded and 2,1s0 were reported missiu9. Take the battle of Chickamauga, that fearful siege on the ridge. and we find that 1853 Federals were killed. 9.74e were wounded and 4,774 were reported nlssing. The Confederate army lost 2,28 killed t3,6l3 were wounded and 1,090 were re ported missing. Take Shiloh the scene of another important battle. and we will find that 1,754 Federals were killed. S.48 were wounded and 2,2S5 were reported missing while 1,723 Confederates were killed. SOP were wounded and ssS were Stones River. 1.730 Federals were killed. 7,S02 were wounded and 3.711 were re- ported as missing. The Confederates lost 1,294 men. 7.945 were wounded and LEf were reported missing. I pick out these battles because of the evenness of the break, as a rule. They seem to indicate the even fighting ability of the forces. independent of numbers. equippleflt. and other advantages which may have be- longed to the one side or the other. These results would seem to show that the men on both sides of that great and bloody issue belonged to the same kind of stock, for it was almost an even break at the battles mentioned. when 1t comes tn the number of men Wounded.
