Illegal for the Board TO build IL Jail up
on the site selected, inasmuch as the
donor of the land, General Simon Per-
klns, stipulated that only so much of
the land should be used as was re-
quired for Court House.
The church building and parsonage
of the First German Reformed con-
gregation are located at the southeast

and the parsonage is directly south of
the jail, where 1t IL claimed the occu-
pants of the house will be greatly an

with the prisoners, some of whom
were anticipated in the petition as ''the
off-scouring of humanity and products
of the Sums" 1t is also stated that
church services could be conducted un-
der pleasanter circumstances than to
have the church right beside the Jail.
The reason that the suit was begun
at this time, after so much work has
been done, was that action could not
be commenced until work of building

THE BIBLE IS READ
TEN TIMES MORE THAN
1T WAS A DECADE AGO.
Geo. X Norris D. D.

1T Is the will of God that every
young man should make one woman
his wife: Let him quit the nonsense
of trying to live pure, holy single life.
1t is hs duty to establish a home,
rear children and set them the example
of a manly, honorable, upright life. :
These words We're spoken by Rev. Dr.
George *. Morris, pastor of the Euclid
Ave. NJ. Il. chlwch, at Cleveland, in the
course Of his lecture at the First NJ.
IT, church, Tuesday evening.
The subject Of DR.. Morris lecture
was THE Practical Study of the Bible"
The proper use Of the Bible" said he,
''is the use of the Bible. not the use
of commentators, quarterlies, lesson
leaves, etc, which are all right in
their places but should not take the
place of the Bible. The Bible is not a
Sunday book or revival book, but a
book for every day. The Bible should
bc read every day and read praycrtully
The reading of any book should be
begun with prayer.
"There are thousands of people"
declared DR. Morris, who hold to the
old superstition that there is some
thing talismanic In the reading of the
Bible. l want to say that the reading
of the Bible Is nothing II you do not
obey its precepts. The man who reads
his Bible, thoughtfully, praycrfully. ev-
cry day, and refuses to pay his debts
or forgive enemies, can get no good
from the Bible II he reads the book
from now on to the end of his life."
As case in point DIR, Morris told
a story of one OF the men whom he

Gathering Statistics.

jackson, Miss, Feb. Axiom. b.
s. White, special agent of the di-
vision Of statistics of the Department
of Agriculture at Washington, and
who is a native of this State and sec
tion, is here for the purpose of dis
covering the number of head OF live
stock of all kinds in the State and to
post himself ON the industry. He
was very much surprised to learn that
the State of Mississippi pays no at
tention to such important matters,
and that it has no bureau of statistics
for the animal or any other industry
The personal assessment rolls show
the number Of animals with which
each citizen is assessed, but that does
not cover the number in the State, by
any means, as ten head of hogs, sheep
or goats, two COWS and calves. two
colts and other animals of domestic
nature are exempt from taxation, and
the assessor does not pay any atten-
tion to them.

county Grand Jury was reconvened in
special session yesterday, and an in
dictment promptly brought against
Jim Frye, the negro desperado, who
murdered officer James Redmond, of
the jackson police force, about dark
Saturday night.
The crime was peculiarly atrooious
and -blooded When citizens Of
the neighborhood who had been at
tracted by the pistol shot, reached the
scene. they found Frye in the act of
kicking and pummelling the officers
dead body A lynching was narrowly
avsrted afterwards. Fully two hundred
people surrounded the city Jail and
were planning an attack when Sher if
Harding mounted the Jail gate with a
Winchester and, backed up by the
Governor Guards, quelled the dis
turbaRce.
Frye will be arraigned fox trial
Tuesday morning, and the hearing will
be a speedy enc. 1t is very unlikely
that there will be a Supreme Court
appeal and Frye is practically sure of
being hanged within thirty days from
the date of execution.

The Fight for Labor.

Jackson, Miss, Feb, 1.-THE ri
valry between the delta planter and
the hill farmer for the possession Of
the negro laborer has almost reached
the acute stage, and in several parts
of the State, personal conflicts on the
subject, have been narrowly averted.
The unusual scarcity Of negro labor
has caused the rivalry to be more
spirited this year than ever, and the
season has been reached when con-
tracts for the planting season must be
closed in order that preparations may
be Immediately commenced. The
delta planters are still sending their
labor agents into the hill counties in
spite of the vigorous protests that are
being set up, ana The delta men have
all the advantage in that they are able
to offer better contracts than the far
mers in the hills.
