DUE TO DRINK.
Pitiable End of a Once Prosperous
Young rIan.

Destitute and alone in a bare lodg-
ing house room, Judd G. Stearns
died last night.
1t has not been so many years
since he was considered one Of the
most promising young men in Du-
luth. In those days he was making
about $4,000 a year as district
court stenographer was a great So
cial favorite, and his young bride
was considered one of the most beau
tiful women in the city.
He chose not only to throw away
his happy home life, popularity, and
position, for drink, but descended to
plane from which the only eleva-
ton comes in the way Of a sentence
to the county rock pile.
There was not friend or former
associate with him at his sad end
ing. Where once he had ample
money constantly at his command,
he was without cent after paying
for lodging and a sort of meal.
For many years Mr.. Stearns was
the only official court stenographer
in the city, and those that were in a
position to know say he easily made
So, 900 a year. He had about the
finest suite OF Offices in the city.
At the height of his prosperity he
was married to a Crookston girl,
remarkable for her beauty and &C
complishments. Everything was
pleasant in their home life, but
about seven years ago Mr.. Stearns
began drinking and neglecting his
work. He began to fail in every
way. The suite of Offices dwindled
down to one room, finally to q desk
and a stool and finally he lost even
the stool.
His wife secured Divorce from
him, but later they remarked, only
for another separation. She is now
said to be in Crookston.
Before finally dismissing him from
the district court service, every ef-
fort was made to induce him to
abandon the drink habit. OF recent
years he has lived by furry touches
made on former friends and on sew
eral occasions was sentenced t. the
county jail for drunkenness. Occa.
sionally when he would brace up and
try to better his condition, he would
take work as a day laborer.
Tuesday morning, about 2 o'clock
he went to the Denver lodging house
at 20 West Superior street. He was
very drunk at the time, and after
securing bed ordered lunch. Yes.
terday morning he was very sick and
gradually failed during the day, dy.
ing quietly early in the evening.
His death is attributed entirely tC
the use of whisky, 1t was not
deemed necessary to hold post
mortem examination. No funera
arrangements we're announced up tc
a late hour.-Duluth Herald, July
9, 1902.

Insurance Rates Raised.

Yazoo City, Miss, Feb. 2s.-Local
insurance agencies have been notified
by the varvious companies they rep.
resent that from now on there will
be an advance Of q per cent. in rate;
OF insurance on all classes of risks
except dwellings which will remain
as at present. This step has been
anticipated by the local agencies for
some time. In accordance with the
action Of the Southwestern Tariff
Association the insurance rates have
been moved up 25 per cent in Alabama
and other States, where the associa-
tion operates, but in Mississippi,
where the association is not recog-
nized, the advance will be taken on
fire risks by the officials of each COM
pany separately, and the agents will
be notified by their various managers
There may be one or two companies
that will not make this advance and
will stick to their old rate, but it is
more than probable that the advance
Will be made by all the reliable com
panies for the whole of Mississippi.
This action is said to be necessary
on account Of the heavy losses all over
the country and especially in Missis

Engineering Feat.

Meridian, Miss, Feb 2S.-One of
the greatest feats of engineering that
has been accomplished in this section
Of the state was witnessed a day or so
ago.
The Northeastern iron bridge which
spans theL eaf river near Hattiesburg
and which weighs several hundred
tons was successfully moved with hy-
draalic jacks five feet from its origi-
nal foundation, having been previ-
ously raised about thirty inches.
j. c. Haughton, the chief engineer
of the Northeastern, said that it was
one of the finest pieces of work he had
business for a great many years.

Senator Noel.
Mr.. SYKES OF MERIDIAN

jackson, Miss, Feb 2S.-A sensa-
tion was created on the floor of the
Senate yesterday afternoon during the
discussion of the antitrust bill. The
evidence on which Senator Noel made
the rather surprising disclosures CON
cerning the inner workings Of cotton
seed oil trust in this state was fur
nished him by Mr.. Sykes, formerly
secretary of the Meridian mill of the
Mississippi Cotton Oil Company.
After the reading of this exposure
Senator Bradley obtained the floor and
read a telegram from President Lewis,
of the Mississippi Cotton Oil Compa-
ny charging that Mr. Sykes was de-
faulter of 81, 200 of the company's S
funds and had stolen papers from the
office. Mr.. Sykes was in the lobby at
the time and Immediately denounced
the statement as a lie and challenged
the author to produce proof. 1t re-
quired a storing effort on the part of
the sergeant-at-arms to quiet him.
A libel suit is likely to follow.

Jackson, Miss, Feb 2S.-The
charges made against the cotton seed
oil mill trust by Senator Noel are
sweeping in their nature and he offers
to guarantee the Legislature that if con
viction does not follow on the evil
dence offered he will indemnify the
State for court costs. In his address
before the Senate he stated that a CON-
bine of 50 Mississippi oil mills was
formed in Memphis on the goth of last
August, a Vicksburg manager being
elected president and Mr.. A. G. Per-
kins, of Memphis, as treasurer, the
latter on a salary of 81, 800 per year
that Mr.. Perkins prorates the seed
supply of Mississippi to these 90
mills, receives weekly reports from
them in cipher and figures, and stipu-
lates to each what the price of seed
shall be, no mill being allowed to
pay in excess of this fixed price,
which takes effect with all mills on
the same day that fund Is raised
for the purpose of fighting the mills
that violate the agreement or refuse
to join the combine, the fund now

mills pay ten cents per ton on ali seed
received to keep up the expenses of
the organization, and an initiation
fee of $3.50 is required that travelling
auditors are employed to check mp the
books of the various mills at regular
intervals, and by the system of re-
ports each mill can tell the amount of
seed received by every other mill in
the state and the price paid therefor
The charge OF Senator Noel created
such a strong impression that the SEN
ate promptly passed the antitrust
bill, and it has been sent to the House
for copcid ara toin hv that hodv
