where he went TO see about the recov-
cry of the body OF his ffteen-year-o
son. John Henry Day. drowned by fall
ing OF bay schooner. of Point Breeze.
in Chesapeake Bay. on Sunday.
He found that no effort had been made
to recover the body. and he was obliged
10 return without II. He is very in
dignant at the apathy Of the Baltimore
Authorities.
The boy left home in April without
the consent OF his parents. and the po-
lice department. was asked to find him.
Mr- Day said he was OF the opinion that
the shipping law had been violated in
taking so young boy on a vessel. and
that fl was his intention 10 institute
proceedings against all persons who had
anything to do with shipping the boy.

LOUIS KEMPNER ADDED
u TO LIST OF SUSPECTS
Chief of Registry System Is
Accused Of Fraud.
CHARGED WITH SMUGGLING
Said to Have Surreptitiously Imported
Cigars From Cuba by Means of
Registered Packages

sThe New York Tribune this morn
ing published charges that Louis Kem-
per. chief Of the registry division of the
Postoffice Department, had been found
by the postoffice inspectors to be guilty
of Smuggling cigars into this country
from Cuba. The charge was that KEN
per imported from sixty to seventy
boxes of cigars in registered packages
without paying duty, and that many of
the. cigars were sold for prices around
81 per box.
Various officials in the department
are said to have bought some OF the
cigars. among them City Postmaster
Merritt and Madison Davis. assistant
city, postmaster.
The Treasury Department requires
that. all registered mail from foreign
countries shall be opened in the pres
ence of a customs official, and the charge
is that Kempner used his official posi-
tion TO have cigars smuggled in with Of
hGial mail.
The last lot of cigars sent him is said
to have been seized by the Treasury Of
cials and TO have been turned over TO
the appraisers.
Mr.. Kemrner said this morning he
would issue a statement this afternoon
explaining the charge; that he would
deny the case was as bad as it had been
made to appear. and that he would show
that the cigars which he is said 10 have
sHaaggled were gifts from friends on
the ISLAND.
Mr.. KemDner said further that under
a ruling from the Postmaster General he
could receive presents sent through the
malls

MONEY BEGINS TO GO
TO NATIONAL BANKS
Secretary Shaw's Plan to
Relieve Market.
ABOUT A MILLION SENT OUT
Twelve Banks, Mostly in the West,
Designated as Depositories-Further
Distribution to Be Made Soon.

Following the announcement that Sec
retary Shaw has already commenced the
distribution of public moneys to fore
stall money stringency, the important
statement is made today that this pre-
liminary action is far more extensive
than was first reported.
Instead of having only designated five
banks as Government repositories. it
is learned that the Secretary of the
Treasury named more than dozen in
stitutions before his departure from
Washington. 1t also develops that the
deposits are a great deal larger than
the sum intimated in the early reports.
Total Will Reach Million.
Among the entire number of designated
banks Mr.. Shaw has ordered the distri-
button of many hundred thousand dol
lars, and it is said the total will reach
million. This amount is greatly in
excess of the supposed five deposits.
The twelve banks named as deposi-
tories for the money are scattered
through the country, a fact that will
cause surprise in the financial world.
1t had been supposed that the New
York banks would receive most of the
money
The release of the money is in accord
ance with Secretary Shaw's plan 10 dis
tribute $40 ,00O, 900 to prevent a squeeze
in the money market. The money will
be used principally for the movement Of
crops in the West.
Secrecy Maintained.
Although Secretary Shaw decided 10
release a portion of the $40 900 900 before
his departure for the West, and at once
designated more than twelve banks. the
utmost secrecy was maintained concern
ing the transaction in order 10 prevent 4
general demand from banks all over the
country. Applications have been re-
ceived, however. from many banks, and
the Treasury will probably be besieged
with further requests for the next few
weeks.
No further action will be taken, how
ever, until the return of Secretary Shaw.
He is expected back on September 10

Fine New Hotel.

ClHe I'VE" nOtel.
The repairs on the Mammoth Hot
Springs Hotel have been completed. The
extension on the Lake Hotel is nearly
completed and will be ready for occu-
pancy by November. When ready. It
will be one of the finest hotels in the
park, with accommodations for between
ESQ and 300 guests. The rooms will be
handsomely furnished in ;he most mod
ern manner and there will be a liberal
supply of bathrooms.
The hotel at the Upper Basin is about
half built and will be ready for tourists
before next season. II will be unlike
any other hotel in the park, and will be
one Of the most unique in the world. It
will be built something on the rustic
style and have many features rendered
possible only by its situation.
Expensive and Dangerous Roads.
Judge Ryan inspected the road which
is under construction from the Canyon
Hotel over Mount Washburn by way OF
Tower Falls and Yancy's 10 the Nam
moth Hot Springs Hotel. This road
opens new and one OF the most inter
esting sections OF the park, In which the
scenery is different from that in the
other sections, and many curiosities
hitherto unknown TO tourists are ex-
posed.
The road is a great piece of engineer
ing work. and in places is cut many feet
through solid rock, at cost of 500, 900
per mile. The rock in some reaches is
cut away more at the roadbed than it IS
at the top OF the opening, with the re-
suit that the traveller appears to be
passing through falling walls. Along
the road at Tower Falls 1t is proposed
to build hotel larger and more luxuri-
Gus than anything yet seen in the Vel
lowstone.
The road construction is under the
charge OF Captain Chitten, who is con-
sidered one of the finest engineers in
the army. Judge Ryan said the road
engineers have many years OF work yet
before them. as many OF the roads Will
have TO be widened IN order to inspire
tourists with greater confidence. Al 4
number OF places the roads are now so
narrow that only three OF four feet cx-
tend from the wheels of the four-horse
coach to the edge Of a preclpice.

Pretty Homes.

One of the highest duties that a
man owes to his family is the
adornment of his home. A pretty
home has attractions for children
and old people alike. Trees and
flowers, shrubs and vines are easily
grown and never fail to amply re-
pay for the little expense and
trouble of planting and tending
them. A pretty cottage embower-
ell beneath shade trees ard cluster
ing vines is a home fit for kings
and queens. Every farmer in Lee
county can be more than a king, if
he will procure such a home. The
best and highest type of manhood
is the honest, frugal and intelli-
gent farmer, whose home is the
habitation of a family of happy
and healthy children. A pretty
home is conducive Of all those
things that enter into the charac-
ter of the true man and tie pure
woman. 1t tends to the develop
ment and strengthening of all the
better and ncbler traits of heart
and head. 1t inspires and pro.
notes lofty conception of life's
duties and helps to open up and
disclose the broad vista of
opportunity and possibility that
lies before the youth whose feet
are touching the threshold of life's
edi6ce. 1t is softening and REIN
ing in It's influences and inspires
within the minds and hearts of it's
inmates the elevating and ennobl.
ing sentiments and emotions that
fit man and woman for the higher
places in their respective realms.
The home of pretty exterior and
tasteful interior tells the story of
the life within. In nine cases out
of ten. peace and content. ease and
comfort, health and intelligence
are found in happy union within
its portals. Get one if you can!

1t is now in order for the gentle
man of fertile imagination to
fabricate a genuine and truthful
story OF his piscatory achieve
ments. The Journal has had its
say and up to date stands, like
Saul of Tarsus, a head and shout
ders above all corners. The wealth
err is delightfully."- spring-like and
balmy, the soft sunshine kisses
the silvery surface of the flowing
streams, the chirp of the cricket
locates his hiding place, the rusty
moccasin is out on the logs, the
fishes are eagerly seeking the
tempting bait and the truthful dis
ciple OF old Isaac Walton has fix
ed mp his rod and lines and all
that is left for him to do is to ego
a-fishin," and sit in his shirt
sleeves on the bank for an hour
or two and endure the gnats until
he catches a small perch or two
and then go home and tell the boys
that he had splendid luck and
caught more than the family could
eat-in a word tell a lie bigger
than the fish he caught and then
go off and think everybody reliev-
ed him. The fish story is the
most excusable form of lying and
the biggest story is the one that
gains the most credence. Go to
work, boys, and send in your fbs
to us and we will establish your
calibre as a fisherman by printing
such of them as are most highly
inflated and therefore the easiest

0a AAuJ AU6u NhO WllUCl WCuU
to the Agricultural and Mechani-
cal College to be present at the
dedication of "Science Hail." the
new building that has just been
erected. On the M. & 0. train on
which we went there were a good
ly number of Lee county people,
including several ladies. The day
was bright and beautiful. AS the
train sped through the prairies Of
Monroe and Chickasaw counties
we We're enabled to see what the
farmers along the line had done
in their fields. We were surpris-
ed to find that almost all the
planting had been done. In a few
places corn was coming up and
once in a while the cotton was
bursting the ground trying to get
out into the warm sunlight. The
prospect down there is good and
there is fine prospect of a good
crop, if we can judge by the be-
ginning. We got to the College
at 1890 o'clock and found an i'm.
mense crowd of people assembled
there. They were there from all
points Of the compass. The six
hundred and forty pretty girls
from the 1. l. & G.. with their
teachers, were there in their blue
uniforms looking the picture of
health and happiness. 1t was a
big day for them. A days jaunt
is always relished by school girls,
but this had specially piquant rel
ish for these girls because 1t gave
them the opportunity to see the
A. & M. College, with it's four
hundred and fifty boys in their
gray uniforms. 1t was a pretty
sight to witness the informing
ling of the blue and the gray up
on the grassy lawns, in groups
under the shade of the trees.
We reached the grounds too
late to hear the speech of Secre-
tary of Agriculture, Wilson,, who
had come all the way from Wash
ington city to assist in the dedica-
ton of Science Hail." We met
the venerable secretary and found
him to be delighted to witness such
a display of our States lovely
womanhOOd aud chivalric man
hood. He expressed qualification
over the privilege which he enjoyed
and took with him, on his depart
ure pleasant impressions Of the
land and people of the sunny
south.
We have not the space to give q
full account of the days doipgs.
1t was a grand occasion and every
thing that was done was highly
creditable to the president, faculty
and student body Of the college.
President Hardy is managing the
great institution in a masterful
way. He is ably seconded by his
faculty each member of which is
doing faithful and conscientious
work in his department. The
students are boys and young men
who represent fine families and
who will prove worthy Of the
sacred trusts which manhood and
citizenship will bring to them.
We enjoyed the day finely. we
met many old friends of the long
ago and enjoyed that great priv
lege. Our friend DR.. j. C. Roberts
and his splendid wife placed us
under obligations for their kind
hospitality and when we had to
leave for home we felt thar the
day had been we'll spent and full
ly enjoyed.
