Superb character drawing is one of the distinct attributes of Charming Pol locks dramatization of Frank Norris famous novel ."The Pit" in which Will ton Lackaye is to appear at the Hype- iron Wednesday night, November H.. The women are perhaps the best, the most natural ever drawn by an Ameri- can novelist and transferred to the stage. Laura Dearborn, who marries Jadwin, the speculator. and her younger sister Page, are two strikingly wel-seen types of young American womanhood' to-day. Undisciplined both, allowed to grow up emotionally and mentally ac- cording to their own free will and the trend of circumstances, unconscious fiirts, they fight their way to their true places in life unaided, however great the material protection thrown about them. Laura has the artistic tempera- ment combined with the admiration of the strong man of action, whatever his shortcomings in the world of culture.
 There is a touch of MT Howells' real- ism in Norris treatment of the younger sister, Page, who inherits, so to speak, third admirer of Laura, nice boy, full of aspirations which vanished the
 moment he scents the battle of the Ex- change. Page undertakes to educate him, and the result is irresistibly hu- morous with the portentious gravity of their talk. Mrs Vessels, the aunt, who cannot accustom herself to her niece's wealth, and Mrs. Gressler, the brokers wife, are also excellently drawn.

aThe Old Mill Stream" the new dra-

 and treatment it resembles neither of those plays. Quiet methods are em- ployed, and it is play of character and dialogue rather than of plot; but 1t pos- sesses sustained interest which begins

Gold Coin Scarce.

A special from jackson to the
daily press says:
There is now no gold coin in
the state treasury of Mississippi,
except d few struggling pieces of
of coin. This condition is a novel
one for the Mississippi treasury,
as the vault is usually crowded
with gold. Recently Treasurer
hampton decid I'd TO remove no
more gold without weighing it.
One settlement of gold made with
a New Orleans baIs1 has been re-
ported short in weight and the
treasurer had to make good the
deficiency. 1t has been the GUS
tom IN Jackson for years for the
local banks to make settlements
with the treasurer in payments
of gold and this has kept a lot of
gold in circulation through the
treasury. Gold wears very easily
in handling, and hence the short
age in weight. Mr.. hampton put
in his new scales, and on the first
lot of gold presented he tried
them. The gold weighed up short
one per cent IN amount and the
bank had to make good the differ
ence. Since this experience the
banks have been refusing gold
themselves except by weight and

Impudent Clinton Negro Attempts to

Clinton, Miss, JAN, 27.-The
following incident is a good ex-
ample of the effect of the presi-
dents negro policy on this sec
ton: A negro man, Isham Peter
son, was cutting wood for A. M.
Gill, one of our most respected
citizens. When dinner time came
he walked into Mrs. Gill's bed
room and washed his face and
hands in her bowl; she caught him
in the act, and when she question
ed what il meant, he replied that
if Mr.. Roosevelt ate with Book
ep t. Washington he didn't see
why he shouldn't wash in her
basin. The negro was lmmedi-
ately ordered off the premises by

The States Timber Resources.

According to the figures sub
mitted at the meeting of the
Southern Lumbermen's Associa.
tion in New Orleans, Mississippi
stands at the head of all southern
states in timber resources, and
the statistics give assurance
that the fear of the long leaf yel-
low pine forests being depleted
is very remote. 1t has been
stated thatsthe piuey woods belt
has enough timber to last one
hundred years, to say nothing of
the new forests that are growing
up, and the figures prepared by
the secretary of the association
seem to verify the statement.
Mississippi is credited with
having 100000 acres of pine
timber lands, and with the excep
tion of Louisiana the timber on
this acreage is thicker than that
of any other state in the south.
The 1900, 200 acres in Missis-
sippi are estimated at 81 90 feet
per acre and Louisiana at 10000
feet per acre. Jackson Corre.

CANDIDATE FOR REELECTION
Senator McLaurin Will Again Make the
Senatorial Race.

Senator A. ]. McLaurin has
returned to Washington after
spending the Christmas holidays
with his family at Brandon.
During his visit to Mississippi
Senator McLaurin stated in his
conversation with some friends
that he would be a candidate for
reelection. While it has been
generally conceded that Senator
McLaurin would be his own sue
cessor the people Of Mississippi
will he pleased to hear that the
Senator himself has stated that
he will be candidate for re-elec-
ton. When Senator WalthalI re-
signed his seat in the senate Jan
uary 1894, Mr.. McLaurin was
elected by the legislature to I'LL
the vacancy. Senator McLaurin s
record in the senate was so emf
nently satisfactory and his perso.
nal popularity 80 great that he
was nominated for governor by
acclamation. While Senator Nc
Laurin was governor he was Sc
vereIy criticized, the chief com,
plant against him being that he
ran a partisan administration,
giving all his appointments to his
friends. We cannot deny the fact
that the senator looked pretty
closely after the interests of his
friends in the distribution of the
patronage at his isposal, but we
are not SO sure but that this is a
virtue rather than fault.
In 1899 Senator McLaurin was
again OVERWHELMINGLY elected to
the senate and IS now serving out
his term. He has splendid rec
ord as q senator, is a fine orator
and always looks after the inter
ests of the masses OF the people,
who will unnueStiOnahlv elect him
as his own successor, and it now
seems that he will have no oppo-
sition. No man in Mississippi
could more ably represent the
state in the federal senate. and
The Press unhesltatingly endorses
his candidacy and feels sure that
he will be elected. = Meridian
