1.-THE OLD PLANTATION"

The inimitable Bob Taylor, from
The beautiful mountain region of Ten
hessee, was in Grenada Tuesday night
and to a packed house delivered his
lecture, 1.-THE Old Plantation" The
ex-governor was accompanied by his
wife. The new lecture is the best of
them all and is beyond description.
TO print all that the lecturer said in
the course of the hour would be in
adequate to furnish an idea of its
richness and excellence. There is
something in his way of saying it that
attracts the people. The very pres
ence of Gov. Taylor on the stage
seems to prepare the audience for
something enjoyable. The singing of
the sweet, tuneful old plantation mel
odies is a most attractive feature of
the entertainment, and was enthusi-
astically received. The sing was first
class. The lecturer himself sings the
leading part and the other three
members of the quartet possess nice
voices. The baritone, Mr.. Diamond,
has an exceptional voice and is east
ly the best performer of the four.
1t was a magnificent audience which
greeted the lecturer. Besides the
leading people of Grenada, there were
a large number of prominent and well
known visitors there. There is no
place where the noted entertainer has
more admirers and friends than here
in Grenada. Owing to his having to
leave very hurriedly in order to catch
a train many people were disappoint-
ed at not having the opportunity to
speak to T~ennessee's favorite son.

LIBRARY DAY.
Enjoyable Exercises at the Public School
on Friday. May 6.

A large and representative audience
gathered at the public school house or
Friday afternoon, May 2, to hear the
program which had been prepared fol
Library Day. 1t was an excellent
program. and it was well rendered,
1t consisted of vocal and instrumental
music and readings, and the numbers
were given by some of the best known
local performers, as well as some
young ladies from Grenada College.
The feature of the exercises was the
address by Hon. T. U. Sisson, of WI
mona. He vas introduced in a verv
complimentary manner by Prof. J. N.
Powers, who told his auditors a treat
was in store for them-and he was
correct. Mr.. Sisson is a member of
the law firm Of Hill & Sisson, of Wi
mona, and is a gentleman of rich legal
qualifications as well as high intellectu-
al attainments; a speaker of rare ability
he delighted his audience by his mas
terly address, which was full of practi-
cal thought and sound, logical sense.
His topic was "The Influence of
Books" He dwelt at length upon
the educational value of books and
said that the use Of text books in
schools, without the supplementary
reading as afforded by good literary
works such as may be found in libra
ries, was past and gone. Very for
chilly did he point out the necessity of
school libraries and urge the en-
enlargement of the work already be-
gun here. Mr.. Sisson spoke about
forty minutes and made a very fine
impression.
Prof. Powers and his excellent corps
OF assistants are to be congratulated
upon the success of Library Day.
Ihey afforded a delightful entertain
ment, as well as making a neat sum
for adding to the library. The peo-
pie of Grenada ought to take pride in
this public school library. 1t is very
important to the pupils Of the school
and should be much larger than it is
now If you want to help in a good
cause contribute volumes and money
to the library.

The protracted meeting at the
Methodist Church closed Wednesday
night. The meeting did not arouse
very great interest, but resulted in
much good. On Monday night Rev.
W. Jas. Robinson, pastor of the First
Baptist church, occupied the pulpit
and preached a strong sermon, which
was enjoyed by all who heard it. One
noticeable and very agreeable feature
of the meeting was the harmony ex-
listing among the denominations. The

Chamberlain on the Future of the
 British West Indies.

London, July 31.-In an explanatory statement in the House of Commons to- day of the grant of G250,00O for the re- lief of sugar planters in the British West Indies, Colonial Secretary Cham berlain said he took a hopeful view of the future of the islands When he took office grave apprehensions existed that the islands would be thrown on the hands of the government and it was that state of affairs that led to the appointment in 1896 of a royal commis- sion to investigate the West Indian su- gar industry. As a result of the Brus- sels conventions, abolition of sugar bounties which were ruinng the West Indies, the situation had much improv- ed and was now much brighter, espe- cially as a direct line of fruit steamers was developing an important trade. It was promised also that enormous coal deposits which had been found in Trini- dad would materially help the islands, and British Guiana. which had been largely dependent on sugar. was now developing diamond and gold fields which promised to have considerable commercial value. However, the period till the promised abolition of bounties in 1903 must be bridged over and s250,- ,- GOO was the smallest sum that could suffice. The government would see that the relief fund was so distributed that the needfest should get the largest share.

Mayor of Minneapolis Resigns-Poiico
 Chief Also to Go.

Minneapolis, July 31.-Mayor A. A. Ames. now at West Baden, Ind. has decided to resign his office, his resigna- ton to take effect September 6. The letter will be read to the common coun- cil at it's next meeting. The mayor postpones his nominal retirement to save the city the expense of special election, which would have to be held if the resignation took effect earlier.
 The mayor has also agreed to secure the resignation of his brother, Colonel Frederick W. Ames, superintendent of police He was brought to these terms by the visit to West Baden last evening of Police Captains Charles R. Hill, who will be acting superintendent, and John Fitchett He does not have the power, while out of the city, to perform the functions of mayor, but he wired Act ing Mayor Frederick M. Powers to se- cure the removal of the chief, and wir- ed the chief himself advising resigna- tion. Alderman Powers has agreed to carry out the wishes of the mayor.
 This is the climax of the police cor- ruption scandals which have agitated this community and occupied the grand jury and the courts for two months. Mayor Ames is in failing health and he may not return to Minneapolis at all, unless he is forced to do so by the courts.

4 GENTEEL BURGLAR.
Mystery of hany Robberies Solved by a
 Spring Gun.

Chester Depot, Vt, July 31-By the use of a spring gun c. H. Waterman, local mill proprietor, it is claimed, has revealed the person guilty of a series of robberies which have been going on in this town and vicinity for several years. The alleged robber is Clarence Adams, one of the most highly respect ed young men of this section. He is un- der arrest, and in his home, it is claim ed, large quantity of stolen property has been recovered. The detection fol- lowed the announcement one morning this week that Mr. Adams had been waylaid and shot on the previous even- ing. On that evening the spring gun set by MT. Waterman, and loaded with No. shot, was discharged. When it became known that No shot were re- moved from Adams wounds suspicion was aroused and the arrest followed Adams was not seriously injured.

COLD MAN FOR GOVERNOR.
Nominated by Michigan Democrats
 Free Silver Men Beaten.

Detroit. July S1.-Judge George H. Durand, of Flint, who filled vacancy on the supreme bench of this state in 1892. and who is classed as gold demo- crat, was nominated for the governor ship by the democrats of Michigan to- day The free silver element made a vigorous fight to defeat him. His nom- ination was made unanimous after the fourth ballot.
 The platform adopted at this morn ing's session of the convention is devot- ed almost entirely to state issues, the only mention of national issues being an endorsement of the election of Unit ed States senators directly by the peo- pie.
 The resolutions declare that the de- struction of boss rule is the supreme is- sue. The adoption of the system known as the initiative and referendum is de- manded.
 Another plank favors municipal own- ership of public utilities subject to the referendum.
