PresIdent MoKinicy.s Murder.

The facts in the assassination of Presi-
dent william Mckinley are still too
vividly remembered to require extended
mention. He had entered upon his sec
ond term under the most favorable aus
pices. Everything pertaining to tho fu-
ture seemed bright with promise when,
without n moments warming he was shot
down by an anarchist. The fatal bullet
WAS fired by Leon Czolgosz while the
president was receiving the public In the
r. mple of Music at the Pnn-American
exposition In Buffalo on the afternoon of
Friday. Sept. 9. He fingered until early
on the morning of the 18th of the same
month, when he passed away, with the
words: Gods will, not ours be done"
The grief of the people was as deep and
sincere as II was widespread. Teleg rams
OF coincidence came from all parts of tho
civilized world and from persons In all
stations of life.
The assassin was speedily tried. con-
victed md the sentence OF death cxecu-

A Mobile negro stated the other
day that the negroes are being forced
into the democratic party. Much
obliged, but we do not need you.
When we really needed you you vot-
ed with the republican party-with
the carpetbaggers and scalawagers
now we don't need you and you
can go to hi, which means heaven.
The negro did the lowest down thing
he could have done when soon after
his freedom he went off with the re-
publican party and against the south
ern people, the best friend he ever
had or ever will have. He thought
the republican party freed him when
the republican party had no more to
do with his freedom than Ham had
with his enslavement.

TURPENTINE JUMPS In PRICE
And In Consequence More DiStiller-
les are Established.

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, Sept. 24.-The jump in
the price of turpentine has caused
the establishment of large number
of new distilleries IN the piney
woods section of this state, and
grave fears are entertained that the
forests of long leaf yellow pine will
be seriously injured by the turpen-
industry.
There is heavy demand for Mis-
sissIppi turpentine at present, and
there are good grounds for the fear
that within a few years there will be
no pine left for turpentine purposes.
Georgia and Florida forests are re-
ported to be well-nigh exhausted,
and the dealers and exporters of the
spirits are looking to Mississippi to
maintain the supply.
Spurred to effert by the high prices,
the distillers are running their plants
day and night to keep pace with the
demand, and heavy Inroads are be-

and some others who had something
to do with the framing of the consti-

MATTERS OF INTEREST TO AeRl-
CULTURISTS,
Some Up-to-Date Hints About Cn1t1-
vation Of tho Soil and Yields
Observation-Disclosures, viticulture and
Horticulture.


In planning for the ARRANGEMENT OF
trees and shrubbery we must assume
enat space Is not limited, that there
are some roods of ground at least,
about the house to devote to the pur-
pose. And first, because comfort is Of
primary Importance in the home. let
there be screens and clumps and belts
OF evergreens to the north and west
as shelter from tho piercing winds
that blow from those directions. If
the house fronts to the south or east,
these may be quite near and form not
only needed protection from the chill
ling blasts, but pleasing background
tor small deciduous trees and shrubs.
#, however, the house must face either
west or north their shelter must be
at greater distance, but there they
should be If possible, and in this case
thick screen little north Of east
may be very desirable, for we all
know how marrow-chilling, catarrh-
producing and mentally depressing an
easterly wind can be. SO let us plant
trees, preferably evergreens, upon all
sides except the south, leaving this
space open for the free sweep Of south
ern breezes, which are the prevalent
ones in the hottest weather, and so
welcome. especially at night, and which
are mild in cold weather; and also
to give free access to sunlight.
We talk Of trees and vines for
shade, but when we stop to think OF
It, there is only a small part Of the
year, seldom more than three months,
when sunshine is not welcome Wis
itor in our houses. Then we will plant
our evergreens on the north, east and
west, leaving the south for the unob-
structed passage of l1fe-giving sun
shine and refreshing southern breezes.
Having provided for requisite shell
ter, we may proceed to plant our orna-
mental trees and shrubs; these may
be effectively massed upon the right
and left of grounds in front Of the
house. leaving an open space for lawn
directly In front, for after all, is there
anything that adds more to the at
Effectiveness of a place than perfectly
graded, we'll turfed and we'll kept
lawn. The lawn should gradually
widen as it approaches the street, the
shrubbery massed so that the densest
part is near the house, the lighter
narrowest next to the street. which
should of course be bordered with
elms, naples or other trees,
In grouping shrubs be careful to
place the taller, more rapid growing
ones in the background, the smaller in
foreground, as seen from both street
and lawn. Occasional handsome shrubs
or we'll cared for flower beds may dot
the lawn, but none should hide the
house or too much obstruct the view
from the front windows or verandas.
