con nty. Citizens were terrorized by
the ravages of these fire fiends, and
many farmers were afraid to leave
their homes during the day, fearing
they would find them in ashes on
their return. The crimes were fin
ally fastened upon Albrittcn and the
two Browns, and they entered pleas
OF guilty when arraigned before
Judge Powell and were given terms
Of one year each in the penitertiary
The pardons are asked on condition
that the trio. will abstain from the
use of Intoxicating liquors, and that
they viii lead peaceable and orderly

the case an unusual one, and the
governor will give it careful inves-
tigation before reaching a decision.

was that the extraordinary activity of
the company to invalidate the Bell

satisfactory explanation of the charge,
cannot accept it with good faith
In one sentence Senator Money
characterizes the statement as ''abso-
iutely false" and in the following
entenced he admits thab the stock
was given him and says Il had
right to take the stock as freely as
any other stock. He then ex-
ptained that he bad prior to this time
announced his intention of retiring
from congress at the end of his term
and declares that the company had
never asked for or expected any legis-
lation.
This clause is only partly true.
The Pan Electric Telephone company
had not asked for legislation IN its
own behalf, but it was endeav0ring
to have the Bell telephone patents
invalidated by congress, and had this
been accomplished the Pam Electric
would have been vastly benefited
thereby, and its stock woald be worth
more on the market today than
that of the Bell company. 2he effort
was being made to accrue benefits in
directly, and it is apparent to any
person oi ordinary intelligence that
Senator Money was not given $50, :
600 stock in spirit of pure generos-
ity, bat that the company expected to
secnre his aid and infiEence in their
scheme. The fact THAI the effort
failed, and the Pan-Electric concern
went to the wall, rendering Senator
Moneys stock valueless, will not con-
done his offense in the eyes cf tlle
voters of Mississippi, and it would
have been far better hai he left the
charge unanswered than to have re-
piled with denial that is nothing
more or less than confession ot
guilt. In this connection is is well
enough to recall bit Of history con.
nectad with the telephone history

THE STATE CAMPAIGN

the State.
Special TO the Daily Progress.
Jackson, July 25.-The state cam
paign is showing its greatest stren-
uosity up in northern Mississippi,
and according to reports from that
section politics is the sole topic of
discussion. With assurances of splen
did crops Of both cotton and corn, the
farmers and merchants have nothing
else to talk about, and as the businesff
season is at its dullest stage, nothing
is left to discuss save the chances of
the various candidates.
A good illustration of the way
politics is discussed in rural town
is reported rom New Albany, Union
county. where it is said that the bust
ress of the county is transacted in the
morning, and after dinner practi-
cally the entire male population con-
gregates on the street corners, or
under the chinaberry tree in front of
the leading grocery to hear the county
candidates engage in joint debate,
and the local spell binders spout for
their respective favorites for state and
senatorial offices. 1t is said that
these impromtu debates move up and
down the streets, the crowd floating
along in their wake, and often they
are continued until far i'll the night.

oratory. The unusually large crop OF
candidates this year makes these
events doubly interesting, and they
invariably attract large crowds OF
people. The farmers have laid by
their crops and now have plenty OF
leisure time to spend listening to the
siren song of the politician.

THE STORY OF DICK.
A Seagull Who Kept Tryst for Twen
 ty-four Consecutive Years.

May St. Nicholas.
 Out in the ocean, about four miles off the shore of Rhode Island and just south of Narra gansett Bay, Is anchored Bren- tons Reef Lightship Some thirty-two years ago the lonely watchers on the ship had their attention attracted by sea gull that so far put aside his wild nature as to swim close to the vessel in search of food. The friendiness and trustful- ness of the bird immediately won the hearts of the keepers, and soon he was supplied with all the food he wanted. Not only this. but every day. without a break, the bird, which by this time the men had named Dick" came back, and just as regularly was he supplied. This soon grew into habit; and the prepara- ton of Dicks allowance became one of the cooks fixed duties.
 There would have been nothing very re- markable in wild sea-fowl following an instinct that led 1t to repeat search for food so regularly and so bounufully sue One day near the lst of the first April following Dicks appearance at the light ship he was missed, and was not seen again until about the 1st Of the next October, when the same program of daily feeding was resumed and kept up as dur ing the previous year Then. as the 1st of April drew near Dick would again take himself off to his summer home, wherever that might, be only faithfully to return with the following October.
 
 the constant round of daily feeding. was kept up for twenty-four consecutive years; and Captain Edward Fogarty, in charge of the lightship, writes to us that the last seen of the old fellow was in April, 1895. when according to ihs custom, he left for his summer vacation. but. for the first time in twenty-four years, failed to return the next October.
 What became of him no one knows. His great age may have so enfeebled him that he was unequal to the long flight to and from his unknown summer home. He may have chosen to stay there, or he may have died of old age.
 It was noticed by the ships keepers that during his last visit Dick plainly showed the effects of his increasing years, and that he was no longer able to hold his own with the other gulls in maintain ing his exclusive right to the bounty thrown out from the lightship.
 The Smithsonian Institution knew the history of Dicks visits and was desirou: of obtaining his remains when he died but, while 1t Is possible that In his later life he might have been captured and forced to end his days on shipboard, thcr' was not one on board the lightshlp st false as to make the attempt or to per l init 1t in others.

DOUBLE GOLDEN SYMBOL.

The American Newspaper Directory uses cer- tain signs to denote the relative standing and merit of the whole field of newspaperdom which comes under it's notice. and one of these signs is the mystic symbol @l denoting golden" which stands for high quality. and is thus explained:
 Advertisers value this rarer more for the class and quality of it's circulation than for the mere number of copies printed
 Such papers are credited with a single sym bei: but there is a higher grade. according tc this standard authority. which have BOTH QUALITY AND QUANTITY. and require the DOUBLE GOLDEN SYMBOL L~SJ to describe adequately their standing.
 The Advertiser has been accorded this double golden symbol ~S and Is the only paper so distinguished in this section Of the south.

At the White House Stables.

There is something doing on the White House stable premises.
 Two new carriages have been added to the Presidents assortment of vehicles, one of which is a large landau and the other a surrey which has chaste trim ming of basket work about the upper part of the two seats. This effect Is the latest swell in the finest coaches of Eng fish manufacture. The White House liv- cry under President Mckinley was dark blue coat and trousers. the latter reaching embellished by President Roosevelt, his livery being a coat of dark blue, tight, white brooches buckled to the knee, pat ent leather boots and high hat gar nished by lofty cockade of red, white and blue.
 Ten men are employed about the Roose- welt stables for fifteen horses, so that there will be two-thirds of man for each horse, or a horse and a half for each man. On the harness which consists of two single and two double sets there are the initials "T. R." forming a luminous monogram. The many saddles used by the President, as well as the tiny affair for Archie, hang on trees over the coach room. The Presidents chief saddle, which is an unique piece of work made after a pattern ordered by General Leonard Wood, he uses when he rides forth with royal visitors.
 The most human-interest compelling thing about the White House stable lot Is Diamond. Diamond is a polo pony used by MT. Roosevelt in the days when ke most loved to play broncho-busting. Dia- mond does not have to work now; he has retired on a pension and is allowed the choicest grazing and stabling to be had.
