Capt. Hardy spoke to fairly good
audience at Brooklyn yesterday and 1t

Only one man, it is said, could be
found who was not outapo8en for the
home candidate. MIR. Bowers was ex-

FIRE THIS MORNING.
A False Alarm Turned in BY
Some One.

A False Alarm Turned IN BY
Some One.
It was near 2 o'clock this morning
when the sleepy citizens of Hatties-
burg were aroused from their slum-
bers by the blowing of the fire alarm.
Hattiesburg Fire Company No. l
responded quickly to the call and as
sembling at the city hall was ready
in short time to go to the scene of
TIE confagration. But it was found
that the fire was too far out. Tt was
Chapel's gin, grist, cotton and shin
gle mill and was on the other side OF
Leaf river. The fire company did
not go because it was too far out and
the water works did not extend there.
The plant was soon consumed.
Scarcely had the awakened citizens
returned to their slumbers before an
other alarm was turned inland this
was the false alarm. There was no
fire anywhere. AS there is a penalty
for turning in false alarms some one
may be made to suffer for this.

LlFEIN DANISH WEST INDIES
A Few Interesting Facts About Our
Newest Prosecutions.

Newest Possessions.
Mr.. II. Ernand Behn, who was born
on the island of st. Thomas and has
lived there for many years, contrib
utes to The Independent the following
facts about our newest possessions:
The Danish West Indies consist Of
the islands Of St. Thomas, st. Croix
and st. John. They We're discovered
by Columbus on his second voyage in
1493. They are undoubtedly of vocan-
ic origin and form a part of the Virgin
group. lying southeast of Porto Rico
and directly in the track of vessels
running between Europe and Panama
and South America. Their total area
is: st. Thomas, % square miles; ST.
Croix, 135, and ST. John, 30. The popu-
lation is about $4,000. Four-tifths of
the people are colored. The climate is
warm, but delightful. never so hot as
one finds it in New York at midsum-
mer. The thermometer seldom goes
above 80. and the warmth is tempered
by the delightful easterly breeze. 1t
is also very healthy, and the sanitary
conditions are excellent. Yellow fever
is very seldom heard Of The popula.
ton of st. Thomas in 1880 was $1,000,
and at that time the death rate there
was about Twenty-Five for every thou
sand persons living. There are three
hospitals and an insane asylum in st.
Thomas.
Life in the islands is delightful The
people are among the most hospta bic
on earth. The social season there be-
gins in December and lasts till April
During that time the harbor of Char
lotte Amalia at St. Thomas is visited
by warshps of almost every nation,
and as the officers are ready always
for amusement ashore there are balls
at the government house and balls at
the houses Of the other principal peo-
pie and more and more balls and
dances on the ships, with dinner par
ties. pcnics and moonlight parties on
the water. In spite of the large share
Of enjoyment which they get from life
the people of the Danish West Indies
live very cheaply. \ fine large man
sion, with ground and broad veranda
can be rented for SO month and one
can have good servant for about So
or 81 monthly. Food also is plentiful
and cheap. There is an abundance of
vegetables and fruits. The meat comes
from Porto Rico, cattle, sheep and pigs
being brought over alive. The waters
about the islands are teeming with the
choicest fish, and fishing is consid-
cradle industry The colored people in
these islands are the best in the West
Indies
