Almost Killed by Ants.

Jackson, Miss, June 3.-Mr.
l.. Il. Anderson, one of the. most
prominent cotton buyers in this
section of the State, came near
being killed yesterday afternoon
By ants.
Mr.. Anderson was in his flower
garden cutting grass with a grass
blAGe, when he struck the end
into on ant nest and in some un-
aceeuntable way knocked about II
million of the vicious little insects
in his face and down his collar.
Wherever they stuck they struck
and proceeded Mt once to busi-
ness, Mr.. Anderson brushed and
knocked ut them, but it seemed to
do no good, and he ran for the
house, where iIc falntod.
Neighbors hearing the distur-
bance ran to his assistance, tore
his clothes from him and soused
him in Il bath tub, into which
strong amonia water had been
poured by his wife. Mr.. Ander
son regained consciousness in five
orsix minutes, thought he was
going to die, told his family good.
by and tainted again. He was soon
brought around however, and, un-
der the care of his physician, who
had been hastily summoned, was
soon put out of pain by opiates.
The unfortunate mans head and
face swclled up to twice its nor
pal size, and his neck and hands
looked like II piece of raw beef.
LIP relating his very unusual ex-
perience, Mr.. Anderson. states
that the pain from the innumera.
BILE stings was lndescribable, and
declares that he thought he was
going to die. No such ant expe'
rience was ever before heard of in
this section.

as a free American citizen, aud
having nothing but the best inter-
ests of the State at heart, we have
reached the honest conclusion that
Mr.. Bowers is the man to send to
Congress, and we believe the peo-
pie of Wayne county will agree
with US and line up for him on the
fifth of August next.
He is not only an able, honest,
conscientious man, but he is self
made, u man Of the people and
for the people ~ one who will
stand up for them and fight their
battles when they need at
tention at his hands. lis record
in the House and Senate of the
State is a brilliant one, and we
predict that if sent to Congress he
will make record that not only
this State but for the whole South
will be proud of.
With these convictions, there
fore the Beacon does not hesitate
to place at its masthead the name
of Hon. E. j. Bowers of Hancock
as its choice for Congress from
congress from this the Sixth Mis-
sissippi district.

Two Remarkable Miracles In a Cath
Ollie Church at Martinique.

Sisters Of the order of De In De-
liverance, who have arrived here
from Martinique, tell a wonder
full story of the preservation, of
Morne Rouge and bear witness
to two miracles enacted during
the eruption of Mt. Pelee. AL.
though Morne Rouge was within
the fire zone it was not harmed.
AS proof that a Divine Providence
directed the lava flow and torna-
die blast away from the town this
remarkable story is told by the
sisters:
"The members of the election
campaign for House of Frdaeh
Deputies on the Socialist side
were very strong, in St. Pierre,
and there were 400 of them in
Morne Rouge, VINO denounced the
Catholic clergy and threatened the
sisters lives. Night and day they
sang ribald campaign songs, bias
phemous printed proclamations.
The blacks threatened to seize the
church and turn it into q theater
and st. Pierre cathedral into o
dancing hall.
"Sister Marie pInfant Jesus
was the spokeswoman of the holy
sisterhood. We were in deadly
fear of our lives, and for two days
and nights stayed in the church of
Notre Dame dc la Deliverance,
Morne, Rouge praying.
"When the mountain began
rumbling and the smoke came on
the morning of the catastrophe,
Fr. Marie celebrated mass at 6,
Fir. Bruno celebrated second mass
at 1880 o'clock. 1t was hardly
over before the people of the town
began focking in terror to the
church. Not all the holy waters
being used in communion, and he
began distributing them.
Suddenly appeared before the
altar a vision of the Savior show
ing the sacred heart. The MEM
bers of the congregation, kneeling
cried to each other, 'Voyez vous
le sacred coeur!' The vision was
sad-faced and wan.
"We emerged to see a terrible
cloud, accompanied by thunder
and lightning, rolling down Pelee,
almost over over our heads, upon
the city of st. Pierre. The whole
place was lighted up by fires. 1t
was the most awful spectacle the
human eye ever witnessed. We
thought the end of the world had
come. We remained at prayer all
that day of terror. Fire, steam
and boiling mud were all around
us, yet Morne Rouge was not
touched; not one person lost or
harmed.
another miracle that occurred
during the awful time was this:
We gave out from our small sup
ply of paper badges of the Sacred
Heart to all in the church, yet,
when we had finished we had as
many as when we began.
"Our truly blessed Savior ap-
peared, not only in the vision, but
saved our lives in answer to our
prayers, and made the wicked suf-
fer by destruction and awful death
We remained with the father,
helping people get away over a
back road on the swindward side
to Fort de France. Then we
walked all the way ourselves. FL
nally, on May 20, the father aud
the last four sister left, by order
of the French officials. We re-
moved all sacred vessels and
sought safety at Grande Anse.
We are still ignorant of the desert
ed town since it was destroyed.
Ten of the sisterhood perished at
st. Pierre; all the Others are safe
here"
Mother Superior Anselme and
Sisters Flaure, Germaine and
Margaret all swear they saw the
vision.

patton Of man is to acquire
wealth. But having acquired
wealth, whether much or little,
the chief concern is to retain it.
The writer once asked a prom
inent business man why he still
worked 80 necessarily, ''you have
enough for all reasonable pur-
poses; why not take things easy?'
ut is this way" said he, "there
are a hundred men in this city,
shrewd men of business, who
have their eyes on me. watching
for an opportunity to get from me
what, by hard work and close
economy, | have scraped together.
| | have to sleep with at least one
eye open to keep what is mine.
It's easier to acquire wealth than
to keep it," Then note the labor
and expense that must be born,
if even the poor would keep their
own. They must fasten the win
dows on summer nights. They
must fence against other
peoples stock; if they have any,
thing of value they must have a
safe with burglar-proof lock; if
they have some money they must
deposit it in the bank or buy a
bomb-proof safe, little trinkets
and works of art, worth fifty cents
each, must not be exposed, or
they are lost; and it is not safe to
60 to sleep with our watch on the
dresser. If we build a fence
around our house it will be
scratched with jack-knives,
marked with charcoal OF demol-
ished by youthful vandals.
Hence, locks and keys, and barb
ed wire, and often bull dogs and
shot-guns must be secured. 1t
takes shrewdness, industry and
perseverance to acquire, and per-
severance, industry, shrewdness
and several other things to keep
that which has been acquired,
and yet we are enjoying the eff
fulgence of Christian civiliza-
ton. And when we have collect
ed a little of this worlds goods we
are studious in our efforts to out
do our neighbors. We must dress
better and fare more sumptuous-
ly than those who cannot 80 well
afford unnecessary expenditures
our superiority must be fittingly
displayed; our children must
dress better than those across the
street, and our pomp must make
their best efforts appear humble.
Prof. Edward 8. Morse says that
in heather Japan, a wealthy citi-
zen of Toxic had a beautiful and
fragile work of art placed on his
front gate, bordering the side
walk. Being demonstrated with
by the professor, that the work
might be broken or defaced by
some needless boy, he said it was
as safe there as in his library,
Three years afterward the Japan
