A story is told of the Moorish prince
AbUI Heiex. who was thrown into
prison for sedition by his brother Mo-
manned. king of Granada. There he
remained for several years until the
king, fearing he might escape, placed
himself at the head of 4 fresh revolt
and seized the crown, ordering one OF
his pashas to see to his immediate exc
cution. Abul Hejex was playingat chess
when the pasha came and babe him
prepare for death. The prince asked
for two hours respite, which was re-
fused After earnest entreaty he OBJ
tanned permission TO finish his game.
He was in no hurry about the moves,
we are told, and well for him he was
not, for before an hour bad elapsed Il
messenger brought the news that Mo-
manned had been struck dead by apo
plexy, and Abul was forthwith pro
claimed king of Granada. 1t was in
deed a Small favor for tire pashn to
grant, but it altered the whole current

LOCAL BUSINESS SUMMARY.
Grand Preparations of Our Mer'
chants to Meet the Trade De-
mandS that Are Coming.

Every line of bu siness shows an ac-
tivity such as the Oldest inhabitants
say surpasses anything that has been
here so early in the season, since
Hattiesburg first received her name.
1t is now. and has been the COM
mon remark of visitors here, that
Hattiesburg has more real large stores
than any city of her size in the south,
and the floors and shelves of all these
are filled as never before, the owners
of them impelled to do so by the
glowing crop prospects and to the end
that none who come here TO trade can
go away saying that the stores here
are lacking i'll stocks.
And the buying, as our merchants
are this fall, in enlarged quantities,
means lower prices and larger dis
counts for them, and in this benefit
to them they are going to see that
their customers also share.
Go through any of our stores here,
upstairs aud down, take cognizance
of the stocks of new goods under
which the very floors are groaning,
and You can then form some idea OF
the pluck and vim with which the
average merchant of Hattiesburg is
m de up, and what is expected by
Hattiesburg this tall in the way of
trade

JuSf Where the
bic Lies

"Ah!" he sighed I'VE don't have
such pies now as mother used to make"
His wife, being Il woman of wisdom,
did not get angry. Instead she simply
reasoned with him.
THE trouble" she said, does not lie
with the pies"
Mo- he returned inquiringly.
"Oh, dear, no. she asserted. THE
trouble lies with your palate and di-
gestion. Pies have not deteriorated
since you were young, but you have.
The pies that make would have tic
killed. you in those days as much as the
pies your mother used to make, and
the pies your mother used to make
would give you the same brand of dys-
pepsia now that mine do. Let US hear
no fforeIAbJut tt,please."
And after mature reflection he de-
cided that it would be just as well TO
do a little less in the line of criticism.

HUMBOLDT, Neb., May 24.--(Speciai.)--
A. d. Snow. a local liveryman. Is having
considerable trouble locating one OF his
driving teams which was taken out OF the
barn several days ago by a stranger and
has not been heard from since although
telegraph and telephone wires have been
kept busy. The supposed thief is a young
man who arrived in the city on Tuesday s
night train from the east, in company
with young woman who passed as his
wife. They stopped at the Central hotel.
The man registered as Mr.. o. B. Thomp-
son, ST. joe" but neglected to register for
his companion. The landlord failed to
scrutinize the register carefully and sup
posed the man had registered for himself
and wife, until the following day. The
stranger stayed about the hotel all day,
evidently not caring to show himself in
public. which action aroused the sus-
picions of the landlord, who started to in
vestigate only to find that Thompson had
hired livery rig and started with his
companion to make a drive into the coun-
try, promising 10 return later wednesday
evening. The offender was about % years
old and his companion was about 49,
