Public School Faculty.

The faculty for Grenada's graded
public school for the next session has
been selected and but two changes
were made. Misses Mary Garner and
Lizzie Nicholson did not apply for re-
election. Both were popular members
of the faculty and did efficient work
and it was through their W choice
that they are not retained. Prof. J..
Y. Powers is still superintendent and
his faculty will be as named below:
Mrs. NJ. L. Ayres. Misses Luda Moore.
Sallie Campbell, Kate Mayhew, Kate
Mcdonnell. Mode Moore and Jen-
ME DeLoach, all being elected unani-
mously. The faculty is a strong one
and will keep the school up to the
present lofty standard.

Celebrated Wedding Anniversary.

Rev. W. Jas. Robinson and wife
celebrated the first anniversary of
their marriage at Gibbs Spring, two
miles west of Grenada, on Wednesday.
They had a nice barbecue and picnic
dinner. All the guests enjoyed the
occasion very much. A large part of
the time was spent in going over the
happy moments of their pre-nuptial
life, and as they rambled among
blooming nature and in the midst OF
the singing birds no doubt their
hearts beat in a responsive rhythm as
loves old sweet song" was once
more crooned. The SENTINEL joins
many friends in extending it's con-
gratulations to them upon passing the
first mile stone in their life of bliss,
and trust that the future for them
will prove to be as roseate as the past
has been.

Gross of Honor for Veterans.

Dixie Chapter, L. ID. c., sent
through the mails on Tuesday to vet
Grams of the Confederacy forty-four
bronze crosses of honor. Something
even a year ago over a hundred blanks
were mailed to veterans in and near
Grenada to be filed ont and returned
to Dixie Chapter. But forty-four
were returned, and as crosses were
obtained for only those who filled out
and returned the blanks that number
only were sent out. The members of
the chapter deeply regret that no more
Of the blanks were returned than
were. 1t was the intention of the
ladies to have an entertainment for
the veterans and present the crosses to
them in person, but this vas made
impossible because of the delay in
receiving the crosses. The cross is Of
pretty design, being maltese in shape.
On n side inside of a wreath is the
Confederate flag design, while on THE
reverse side are the worde Dec Vim
dice, l~S6l-1sG5," also in a wreath.
The name of the veteran was engraved
on each badge.

monkeys and no tails. Our other distant relative. the 'possum, will probably need his caudal appendage for all time to come. If for no other reason, he will re- tain it for the negro to carry him by.
 By a parity of reasoning, The Dispatch arrives at the conclusion that there will in future ages be developed practically taiIless horses. In a state of nature, the horse needs his tail to brush of the flies, but in this day of advanced thought man proposes to do that job himself, or else he thinks that nature made mis- take which should .he rectified. At any rate. 1t is now the custom in many places to shave the tails of the horses as well as the mules, and the time may come. If the practice is kept up long enough. when colts will come into the world either en- tirely without tail or with hairless stub or bare switch like rat. Whether that will be an improvement depends en- tirely on individual taste. and we hope The Dispatch will tell us more about it.

BANKHEAD FOR JELKs
And Also for the Reelection of
 Senator Pettus.

| Birmingham Age-Herald,
 Congressman John H. Bankhead an-
 nounced yesterday that he favored the re- | election of Senator Pettus, and the nomi- | nations of Jelks Smith and Sowell He | also will support Dr. Cunningham for l Lieutenant Governor
 ..T am strongly in favor of the re-elec- | ton of General Pettus to the United States Senate and will give him my cor dial support" said Congressman John H. Bankhead. who was in Birmingham for
 a short time yesterday on his way from Washington to his home at Fayette. T took occasion last year to assure General Pettus of my attitude regarding his reelection. and my Friends have been av are of my position aN the while. My support is given to General Pettus for the reasons, chiefly, that he has faithful | ly. ably and satisfactorily represented the State of Alabama in the Senate; that he is a father and faithful leader of the Democratic party. and that according to our Democrtic custom he is entitled to reelection, since he has been always true.
 For similar reasons I am in favor of
 the nomination of Governor Jelks and the
 and State Auditor Sowell. Nobody can
 reasonably question the fact that MT.
 Jelks is discharging the duties of his high
 office faithfully and we'll and to the gen.
 eral satisfaction of the people, and he ought to be nominated this year for the full term as Governor. That much is true also of Mir Smith and MT. .Sowell. There fore l give my support to these three high officers of the State.
 "As for the Lieutenant Goyernorship. am for my old and intimate personal friend. Dr. R. M. Cunningham, who is everywhere acknowledged to be one of the best men we have in the State and one most competent to adorn any office in which the Democratic party can pame him.
 Tt is essential that the new Consti.u- tion of our State be given a fair and just trial at the outset, and therefore deem it in the highest degree desirable that the legislation required to give full force and effect to the Constitution should b. enacted by the friends of that instrument of organic law. In other words, the Constitution should be in the hands of it's friends; and it Is encumbent upon the Democratic party to see that the Governor and the majority of each House of the Legislature elected this year are entirely friendly to the Constitution.
 This authorized publication of Congress man Bankhead's views regarding State politics just now will set at rest all the conflicting gossip relative to his attitude towards the United States Senatorship and the (,oyernorShip.

EGYPTIAN COTTON
May Work a Revolution in Cotton
 Industry.
Washinrton Post.

Washington Post.
 Egyptian cotton is being introduced In Texas and promises to revolutionize the cotton industry in the South," Mir. c. s. Austin. of San Antonio, Tex, remarked last night at the Raleigh. Tt Is much more desirable than the cotton raised in the United States now. and is even better than the sea island cotton. The Egyptian cotton has much longer fibre than other cottons and it's seed can be removed so easily that 1t is not necessary to cut up the cotton in ginning it. A series of saws which work between rods is used in gin ring ordinary cotton and considerable power is required to tear 1t loose from separated from it's seed by a series of rollers, which do not cut the cotton and destroy the length of it's fibre. The De- partment of Agriculture has distributed it will soon be known whether the Egyp- tian product will flourish in all the dis tricts devoted to the raising of cotton"

"The Roots of the Drinking Habit

From Democracy.
 It is nov generally acknowledged, tc a large extent, drinking habits are caused by the food people eat, and 1t is vel known fact that a flesh diet is one oi the most direct causes of alcoholic drink ing. The stimulating effect of meat al ways has its reaction, which gives the craving feeling which so many have. To counteract this recourse is had to alco- holic liquors, and so one bad habit begets another.
 There is nothing so certain as a cure for alcoholism than vegetarian diet, and this fact is becoming more and more evi- dent as the purer food is tried more ex- tensively. One of our leading scientists recently said: Tt is not possible for a drunkard to eeat unleavened bread, made from unbolted wheat flour, and uncooked fruits, such as the apple. pear plum or apricot, and nothing else. for six months, without having the desire for liquor sub stantially die in him." In The Herald of the Golden Age for February 15 last is an article on this subject bv pr. George Black of Edinburgh. entitled "A Remedy for intemperance." It is worth reading, as it is full of practical evidence.
 If anyone troubled with the drink habit sees this, I would ask him for his own sake. as well as for that of humanity, to give vegetarianism a trial. It is easy enough to manage nowadays. for there are plenty of tasty and sustaining dishes to be made at very little expense.
