Few Days Recreation In the WOODS,
Whether lIe Can Get Bear Or Not.
Memphis, Tenn, Nov. 13.-President
Roosevelt and party reached this city
at $50 o'clock this morning. Later
he was joined by smyvesast Fish and
John McElhcnny, of Louisiana, and left
over tho Mississippi and Yazoo Railway
for Smedes, Miss, 70 enjoy four days
bear hunt The special train will be
held upon a siding at Smcdes until next
Wednesday. when the president will
return to Memphis.
The place selected for the hunt is
come miles from the railway and is in
the region which was formerly the
favorite hunting ground of General
Wade Hampton, the famous leader OF
the Confederate Black Horse. General
Hampton at one time owned a planta-
tion in this vicinity and hunted black
bear in the cane brake with horse and
hounds. Before the war he is said to
have killed more than so bears in a sim
gle season, some of them with knife.
Years ago the president and General
Hampton planned a hunt in this region
but it was never made, and when
President Stuyvesant Fish, of the Illi-
nois Central, proposed the present triI
the president readily assented.
The president, however, does not an
ticipate the pleasure of killing a bear sc
much as the pleasure of few days
complete recreation in the woods. HC
has had hard and trying summer anC
fall. and feels that he has earned {
holiday, and that privilege is what h'
is after, whether he can get bear ol
not. To one who has hunted grizzlies
in the Rockies black bear are not yer,
big game. But hunting bear with hors'
and hounds will be new experience
for him. If a bear shall not be Sc
cured it will not be the fault Of Mr.
Fish. He has one of the best pack o
hounds in the Mississippi delta at tn
camp.

NIGHT WITH LARGE MEMBER
SHIP AND WITH MUCH
ENTHUSIASM.

The Young Mems Terrell Club was or
ganized Thursday in the Equitable build
ing with more than 100 charter members.
Several speeches were made and there
was much enthusiasm.
The following officers were chosen for
the organization:
Walter p. Andrews, president; B. M.
Blackburn, first vice president; Dr. B. w.
Bizzell, second vice president; Harry Sill
verman, third vice president; S. j. Heard,
secretary and treasurer.
The club was organized by Mr.. Andrews,
who did much toward the success of the
first meeting, giving his influence, which
is considerable in Fulton county.
The principal business of the evening
was the appointing of a committee of
seven to confer with the Fulton county
Terrell Club In order that both organi-
cations may make a concerted EFFORT in
behalf of Hon. J.. M. Terrell.
Short addresses were made by Burton
Smith, Robert Aston. Walter p. An

to the effect that Hon. Dupont Guerry be
invited to address, the club on the night
after the primary and join the club in
celebrating theS victory of Mr.. Terrell.
This was seconded by DR.. B. w. Bizzen.

there Is plenty OF money on hand to send

This is the first time in years that the

and they viii no doubt be pleased TO learn
that they have more money coming TO
them.
II was thought several days ago that
another payment could not be made until
some time I'm April or May, but the use
OF the public property fund, which was
held TO be legal by the supreme court In
recent decision, has enabled the state TO
almost catch up IN its payments 10 the
pedagogues.
Money is still coming in from the tax
collectors and on April l large payment
OF special taxes will be due, which viii
probably pave the way for another pay
ment. Treasurer Park says now he docs
not think a loan OF 100000 TO meet

KING EDWARD is REBUKED
BY AN ENGLISH MINISTER

LONDON, March 7.-There was strik-
ing scene in the city temple yesterday,
when during the course of his sermon the
Rev. Joseph Parker, d. D.. the minister,
administered a pointed rebuke to King
Edward, which was loudly applauded by
the congregation. Having alluded to pub
ic houses as trap doors Of hell DR..
Parker referred to the kings recent brew
ing of beer while visiting Lord Burton.
Pray for me-" said the divine. that
may speak delicately, Loyalty. If the king
brews beer, what can be wrong in the sub
ject drink it; the king is likely to be i'm
itated by others.
"If the king goes to Sunday concert,
as he did recently, he deals deadly blow
to the Englishman's Sunday. The king
cannot attend a non-conformist place OF
worship, but he can go to Sunday con-
cert"
This remark called forth cries OF
"Shame" and DR.. Parker continued:
"If the king, who is the head OF the
church and defender Of the faith, can
violate the English Sunday. what can
the people do but follow in his steps? l
would rather give a great sum in gold
than appear to be disloyal; but 1 cannot
be disloyal TO Christ, and it is better that
these things shall be said
