COTTON MILL. rlOVEMENT
Decided Impetus Due to q Series
of Lectures.

Starkvile, Miss, May l9-The cot
ton mill movement in Mississippi IL
being given a decided impetus by q
series of lectures on the cotton work
ing industry delivered by Prof. Arthur
Whittam, of the Mississippi textile
school Pro. Whittam delivered a
lecture today at Magnolia where a
movement has been launched to So
cure the erection of a cotton mill, and
during the sommer he will visit a
number of points in the state where
similar enterprises are in oontempla-
tion.
The textile school, erected at cost
of about SOS, 900, has already produced
a substantial result in awakening in
terest in textile manufacturing indus
tries in the state and the point has
been reached where confidence is felt
that ere many years pass by the en-
tire cotton crop of Mississippi will be
converted into finished products by
home mills.
At the close of the next scholastic
terms the textile school will turn out
a large number of graduates who are
now taking the two-year course ut the
institution, and this will give an ad-
ditional stimulus to the industry as
the graduates go out into different
parts of the state and organize mill
enterprises among the people.

n TIau

Buffalo, N. Y, May 49, The case
of Gabriel Bishop, O young student
charged with manslaushter, was call
ed for trial today in the Erie County
Supreme Court. The trial promises
to be one of the most interesting that
has been before the local courts in q
long time. The case itself is pc
culiar one. Young Bishop is charged
with causing the death of young
man named Austin on the night OF
July =, 1899, at a camp on Lake Cuba.
1t is alleged that Bishop caused a
stick CT dynamite 10 be exploded near
the camp, with the result that Austin
was killed. While the evidence az.
ainst Bishop was purely ciroumstan-
tial, the first trial resulted in finding
him guilty of manslaughter. The de-
cision was reversed on appeal and .
new trial ordered Bishop is the son
of one of the most prominent and
wealthy families in Western New
York.
He is at present attending the Uni.
versity of Michigan, where he went
after being denied admission to Cor.
nell University while the present

or lands. Today the business of the
conference was got we'll under way.
1t is evident that the conference Is to
be of more than usual interest as
number of important questions are up
for definite action. Among these are
life insurance and the position Of the
church in regard to divorce. Hereto
fore the church has prohibited its
members from insuring' their lives,
bnt of late years a more liberal senti-
ment has spread among the younger
element and there is now strong de-
mand for a removal or modification of
the prohibition. Another question
which is likely to provoke interesting
discussion was first raised in the Tex
as and South Louisiana district. II
is an overture urging that the name
bunker" or "Dunkard' be excluded
from publications issued by the Broth.
rem Publishing House.
