Over Thirty Mile Course.

Atlantic Highlands, N. j., July 1s.--
That Sir Thomas Lipton's new cup
hunter was in her finest racing trim,
Friday, she manifested by showing
her clean heels to Shamrock ]. from
start to finish over 3o-mile course
and winning by II minutes "A seconds
elapsed time, decisive victory. Twice
in the shifty wind the captain OF
Shamrock /. got the better of 1t In
shiffy wind after the challenger
had established big lead. Only the
challengers's superior heels enabled
her to regain her advantage. The up
shot Of II was that the Shamrock III.
beat Shamrock I. by minutes 3s sec
onds. beating to windward and min
utes seconds running home.
The Judgment of Designer VIII
Fife, who is conducting this tuning
up process, was manifested in the al
tered trim of the challenger.
The course was a 15-mile beat to
windward due south and a run carry
ing spinnackers back TO Sandy Hook
lightship. The wind freshencd from
three knots at the start to ten at
the turn and dropped to five at tbs
finish.

Fine Crop Prospects.

Ideal weather conditions for the
cotton crop have existed in Missis-
sippi during the past week, and the
crop has made more satisfactory
progress than during any week since
its planting. The steady prevalence
of high temperature, accompanied
by a succession Of bounteous show
ers, has brought out the plant in a
wonderful manner, greatly adyanc-
ing the growth, which was so much
retarded during the early part Of the
season.
The farmers are quite jubilant
over their prospects throughout the
State, and from all quarters of the
commonwealth come splendid re-
ports on the corn crop, which prom
ises to be the largest grown in Mis-
sissippi for five or six years. Roast
ing ears are now plentiful on the
market, the watermelon supply will
be sufficient to supply even the most
clarnorous demands of the negro
population, and there will also be a
large canteloupe crop. Fruits are
fine and abundant, the crops of
peaches, grapes and figs being par
ticularly good.

RURAL FREE DELIVERY.
IL to Discontinue Certain Of
fees fs Denied.

Washington, July 1s.-The post Of
fee department, Friday, made public
the following:
There seems to be a wide misun-
derstanding as to the present atti-
tude of the department regarding
rural free delivery. The statement
has been published quite generally,
particularly in the west, that rural
routes that do not handle 1000 pieces
of mail per month and supply 100
families are to be discontinued. 1t Is
not the purpose of the department to
disturb routes already established un-
less they are manifestly unnecessary.
There are now on file in the depart
ment petitions for more routes that
will supply more than one hundred
families than can be established with
the present appropriation. This be-
ing the case the department does not
feel it wise, equitable or just to es-
tablish a route supplying less than
one hundred families to the exclusion
of routes that will supply more than
one hundred families, the greatest
good to the greatest number being
the fundamental principle upon
which rural free delivery is being es-
tablished. As long as all of the routes
that are asked for can not be estab-
lished because of the lack of suffi-
cient money, the routes that will sup
ply the greater number of families
should certainly have preference"

A strange but well authenticated
story comes from Prentiss county
that a young woman, who is known
as Willie Ray, has for several years
practiced the deception that she was
man, and her true identity was re-
vealed last week to officers of The
law in order to disproyc allegations.
This person has worked several years
with different farmers in the country
as a share cropper, but is making a
crop this year on her own account.
During all this time she has dressed
in full male attire, and on anything
like special occasions appeared as a
neat-looking boy, riding horseback
astride, chewing tobacco and smok-
ing cigarettes. Willie has always
been regarded as a good field and
farm hand, and possessed the conf
dence of neighbors to the extent Of
opening individual accounts with
storekeepers and other business men.
She is 25 years old and came orig
inalIy from Tennessee.

A WARRANT FOR BEAVERS.
The Former Chief of the Division of sAi-
aries and Allowances of the Post
ONCE Department Indicted.

Washington. July 1s.-The issuance
Of bench warrant for the arrest of
George w. Beavers, the former CHIEF
OF the division of salaries and allow
ances of the post Office department, IL
the elimination of an investigation
that has been in progress at intervals
since his sudden resignation from
Office. last spring. A number of mat
ters affecting his administration have
been probed into, one of the first re-
suits of which was the cancellation of
5,o46 promotions that had been passed
on by him to take effect at post Of
fices throughout the country during
the present fiscal year. Subsequently
other matters were taken up by the
investigating officials. The case on
which the present action of the grand
jury is based. it is said, is more
recent development. The inspectors
have worked continuously on the in
vestigation and it is said that it was
only within the past two or three
days that the evidence finally was se-
cured that furnished basis for ac-
ton by the federal grand jury. CHIEF
Post Office Inspector Cochran has
made several mysterious trips to New
York, in connection with the case.
and Inspector Walter S. Mayer, of
Chicago, who worked up the case
against August w. Machen, the for
mer head of the free delivery servic,.
has figured conspicuously in obtain
ing the evidence placed in possession
of the district attorney at Brooklyn.
The authorities are now searching
for Mr.. Beavers to place him under
arrest. His present whereabouts IL
unknown. The postal officials were
chagrined to learn of the publicity of
the action of the grand jury in ad-
vance of the serving of the warrant.
They regarded the news as prema-
ture, and declined to discuss the mat
ter on the ground that the time was
not ripe to make statement. Fourth
Assistant Postmaster-General Bristow
conferred with several of his assist
ants Immediately after he learned
that the action of the grand jury had
become known. subsequently he re-
fused to answer all questions on the
subject.

An Old Land Warrant.

An interesting case of looting by
the Federal soldiers from Southern
citizens during the civil war has just
come to light in the county Of At
tala. The late Gen. Richard Stokes
Of Grenada county, received before
the war a land warrant in payment
of services in the Florida war. As
the warrant was not needed and it
was probably not convenient to place
it on lands that he desired, it was
laid away with other valuable pa
pers, without knowledge Of any 9TH
er members of the family, even if
they knew of it's existence. During
the war the premises were invaded
bv Federal soldiers, the place looted
Of many valuable articles and pa
pers, among them this land grant.
Not long since man living in the
North sent the warrant TO an attor-
ney for Endorsement by the benefi-
ciary, which disclosed its history and
Mrs. Wiley Sanders, one Of the heirs
Of Gen. Stokes, at once proceeded TO
its recovery.

VIII Lose an Eye.

News came to Water Valley last
week from Chicago that physicians
had found it necessary to remove the
injured eye of J. X. Cahill in order
to save the remaining sound mem
Der. He was injured by a small
piece of steel breaking off from a
lathe at which he was at work in the
shops of the Illinois Central rail-
road there and hitting him in the
optic. He was at once sent TO spe-
enlist in Memphis, but, finding
nothing could be done for him there,
be was sent on to Chicago. He is
one Of the best known young men in
the city and his friends are sorry for
his misfortune.

Fishermen'a FInd.

Some fishermen found floating in
the river last week, near the Blanton
place. in the northern part Of Green
vile. an oid-style metallic coffin.
The case was four feet long, and on
removing the lid could be seen the
flesh and bones of a child, presuma-
bly, about 12 years old. The coffin
must have caved off into the river
from cemetery or family burying
ground. From the looks Of the cof-
fin II has been in the ground fos
some time.

An Unusual Case.

A very unusual case of bone frac-
ture is now being given professional
treatment in Jackson. A few days
since a base ball team Of that city
was playing the team at Ridgcland
and young man named Quincy
was occupying the position Of left
fielder for the jackson team. In
attempting to throw the ball from
left field TO first base his arm
snapped in twain just above the ell
bow. The sharp, cracking sound
could be distinctly heard by the
spectators gathered near the home
plate.

Vicksburg citizens seem deter
mined to secure artcsian water for
their town. There was a meeting
last week to consider ways and
means to accomplish this end. ii
was decided to organize at once with
a capital Of $4,000, organization to
be effected and work commenced sf
soon as $4,000 Is subscribed and
paid The geological surveys show
that it is quite as feasible to get arte-
sian water at Vicksburg as At jack
soy Or any other locality.

tigers can be sxterminated from a
community if the officers Of the law

The closing two weeks Of the
State campaign promise to be tho
warmest ever recorded in the politi-
cal history of Mississippi.
Since the ineipiency of the cam
paign there has been a continued
display of high spirit, and deep in
tcrest has been manifested by the
voters in the chances Of their respec-
five candidates, but what has been
displayed is not marker compared
with what is TO come.
The fortnight preceding the pri-
mary, August 6, will be a continual
clash, according TO the opinion of
those who have narrowly watched
the principal contests. 1t is being
whispered about that the candidates
who are now under the fierce lime
light of public observation are re.
serving their heaviest ammunition
for the last, and rumblings and re-
verberations that will shake the
State to its uttermost corners are
promised.
0utcroppings Of the heavier clash
to come are even now being mani-
tested, and movements executed that
give indications of battle that will
be memorable in the history of the
commonwealth.
The minor candidates are being
almost lost sight Of in the prepara-
tions for the more gigantic strug-
giles, and when election day arrives
it will be found that public interest
is almost wholly absorbed by the
senatorial and gubernatorinl fights,
and but little attention paid to the
other contests.
The usual preparations ere being
made TO get the returns from the
various counties at the earliest pos
sible moment after the votes are
counted, and preliminary dispatches
will be sent giving the first indica-
tions of probable results. Jackson
will of course be headquarters for
the returns, and in addition to the
bulletins which the two telegraph
companies always furnish from
their local offices over the State, the
candidates will have private advices
from their friends and supporters
in the various counties. Every pos
sible effort will be made TO ascertain
results as soon as they are reached,
and the night of August promises
to be one Of great excitement MT the
capital.
| Owing to the unusually large
number of county candidates in
many Of the counties it is feared
that the Nturns will be rather slow
in arriving, as it will require con-
siderable time for the judges to
count the ballots when from so to
$50 names are on the ticket. Sew
era counties have over 100 county
candidates in the field, and when
the State and district candidates are
added the ticket will be a very for
midable looking affair.
