What Vicksburq Wants.

A Vicksburg telegram says: The To-
cal baseball management is desirous
that Vicksburg man be at the head of
the Cotton States league the coming
year, and at meeting to be held at the
close of this season will doubtless try
to bring this about If Hon. Murray
F. Smith would accept the position if
rendered him the local management
will back him for the place. It is
likely the Pine Bluff and Natchez man.
agements would vote for Mr. Smith.
though exactly how the other teams
would vote is not known.

A MAGICAL EXPER mENI.
Feat Which Any Boy May Perform to
Amuse Guests.

AIllQo0 SQSSeo'
Here is q little feat that any boy
car perform and yet it looks like
trick of a magician. If you wish to
entertain company with it tell them
that YOU have a bottle and a goblet
both full to the brim OF water, and
that you are going TO empty the COB
let by means of the bottle without TAX
ing drop of water from the latter
This is the way TO prepare for 1t:
With red-hot wire pore two holes
through a cork and into them insert
two straws, one of them extending
above the cork as high as the goblet
is deep the other about twice as high.
Now, with little kneaded bread
or wax close the upper end OF the
shorter straw and then force the cork
into the mouth Of the bottle until the
water spurts out through the longer
straw
Meanwhile you have the goblet OF
water on the table before you, and also
a basin or bowl and pair OF scissors.
Hold the goblet over the basin with
your left hand, and with your right
turn the bottle upside down, putting
the shorter straw inside the goblet.
AS you do this have someone take the
scissors and cut Off the closed end OF
the shorter straw Water will at once
begin to run out of the longer straw
into the basin and will continue to run
until the goblet is empty. You must,
of course, hold the bottle SO that the
short straw will reach down to the
bottom of the goblet.
This is simply the operation OF a
siphon.

Captain Blue and his band of ball
tossers journeyed to Monroe sunday
and annexed two games with which to
increase their standing in the race
for the Cotton States league pennant
race. The score in the first game was
II to 3 in favor of the locals and the
second game was won by score OF 4
to 3. Thomas was pitted against his
old rival Gilreath in the first game
hits. Gilreath was hit hard and often
and the score began to assume lop-
sided appearance from TIE very first
inning.
The second game was one Of the
games that had to be played off owing
to the fact that game with Monroe
was thrown out early in the season.
Desonia. the local amateur went into
the box in the second game and was
in fine fettle He had Monroe COM
petely at his mercy at all times and
pulled the game ont On the right side.
Helms pitched for Monroe and did
better titan his predecessor. The
game was pitchers battle. but timely
hitting on the part of the local batters
helped to win.
The Pine Bluff team returned home
last night and will play with Baton
Rouge at Bel park this afternoon.
This last series of games closes the
season in the Cotton States league
and much depends on the result Of the
series. Should Pine Bluff take all
three games from Baton Rouge, it will
materially effect their chances for the
pennant, while, should the locals
loose, they will stand little chance OF
finishing better than fourth. The
game this afternoon will be called at
o'clock. Blincoe will probably dc
the box work.

admissions to the local grounds. The
falling off in the attendance is due to
the fact that there were few Sunday
games here this season. the schedule
aaVing been arranged SO that NIcks-
burg not only missed playing on that
day at home. but often was in one of
the cities where Sunday bail was net
allowed. Thus they lost the Sunday
attendance altogether. At the Fourth
of July game last year there were
2,300 paid admissions here. This year
there was no game here on that date
Baton Rouge. but rain prevented the
contest. The management bel1eves
there has been as much interest taken
in the game this year as last and at
tributes tie falling off in attendance
SIMPLY to the bad schedule.
More attention will be given the
schedule next season, and Vicksburg
Wlll contend for at least three Sun
day games every month. In spite OF
the fact that the attendance has been
small here this year the mana cement

POULTRY POINTERS.

Everything in the poultry house
should be dry.
Ducks will not thrive on sloppy food
nor on cOrnmeal alone.
Boiled potatoes, turnips and other
vegetables may be fed to ducks to ad-
vantage.
A good food for fattening fowls can
be made by mixing cornmeal with
mashed potatoes and milk.
In dry picking poultry the picking
must be done while the fowl is warm
as soon as possible after the fowl is
killed
The nests should never be fastened to
the poultry house in such a way that
they cannot be readily removed and
cleaned.
Fowls are very fond of raw vegeta-
bles. Beets. carrots, turnips and espe-
ciaily cabbage may be fed to advan-
tage. The best plan is to chop them
fine.
A dressed fowl may be made to look
plump by dipping it for ten seconds in
water that is nearly boiling hot and
then holding it until chilled in cold
water.

The election of United States Sena-
tors to fill Delaware's two vacancies in
the upper house of Congress is still an
unsettled question. The lines seem
closely drawn, with every indication
that deadlock will continue to the
end. The coalition plan between the
Regulars" and the Democrats, so ut
terly denounced by Hon. Mark Hanna,
chairman of the National Republican
Party, will hardly pass, and there is no
hope of the deadlock being broken un-
less something unforeseen happens.
''There is but on argument that can
be made, in any reason, touching the
Senatorial matter at Dover, says the
Wilmington Sun and that is that the
will of the people of any State of this
Union is the political law of that State
under the American Republican form
of government. The Republicans of
this State have voted on, and for the
election of Mr.. Addicks to the United
States Senate. not only once but sew
eral times; and always for his election.
The vote in his favor has steadily
grown since 1892, until 1902 his ma
jOritY over his Republican opponents
Is 75 per cent, of the total Republican
vote of the State. That is the argu.
ment. The decision of the people at
the polls is the law.
'To refuse to obey that law, to vio-
late it, is treason to the basis principles
of the Republican form of government.
That is true of resistance to the will of
the majority expressed at the polls, be
the refusal to obey, or the violation of
the degree, wherever it may, and by
whOmsoever it may be committed.
Upon the strict observance of and OBJ
edience to that law the safety and per-
manence of the government rests.
Upon no class of public servants is
the obligation to observe and obey the
law so personally obligatory as it is up
on members of the legislature upon
whom devOlves the duty of maintain
ing the regular and lawful succession
of the government. Their duty is
plain. The vital decision in the mat
ter, what political principle shall pre-
vail, is decided by the people. Their
decision is absolute. Delaware has
voted for the election of Republican
United States Senators. There is no
authority and no right for ignoring
that decision, anywhere.
Smyrna times., 1903-01-28

GREAT Brintain and Germany have
notified United States Minister Herb
ert W. Bowen, representing Venezuela,
that they are willing to accept the
basis of his propositions for a full
settlement of the Venezuelan dispute.
A Rome cablegram states that Italy
will take similar action. Minister
Bowen, in return for the raising of
the blockade, offers 80 per cent. of the
customs receipts at La Cru agra and
Puerto Cabello in payment of the
claims. These receipts, he proposes,
should be collected by a Joint com.
mission made up of one representative
of eooh over having claims against
N The methods of making
the collections have not been definite
ly settled yet. In Berlin it is sug-
gested that Mr.. Bowen himself might
be the receiver.
Part of the receipts at the two ports
named were already pledged as secur
lty for Venezuela's foreign debt. It
Is stated in Rome that one of the
powers insists on 50 instead of 30 per
cent. of the receipts. As soon as the
details of the agreement are completed
the blockade will be raised. In official
circles at La Guayra it is said that
the blockade will end Wednesday.
When the question Of security is
finally disposed of a commission rep
resenting all the powers, will adiudi-
cate each claim. It is expected that
every phase of the dispute will be
settled without reference to The
Hague tribunal. New York banks,
including J. P. Morgan & Co. and ].
q W. Seligman & Co. are understood
to be willing to arrange for the pre-
liminary payments demanded by the
powers.

Man is the best friend of the dog.
Horses come next, but between the dog
and all other farm animals, from the
house, cat to the COW and the beef steer,
there seems to be a natural enmity.
Dogs, however, are fond of sheep and
goats, but as diet, not as living friends.
COWS and sheep and goats should be
kept as free from association with dogs
as is possible, with the exception of the
trained shepherd dog A dog walking
through a cOwpen will often cause a
decrease in milk flow that amounts to
more than the cash value of the dog.
Many dogs are worth considerably less
than nothing
