ing the necessary two-thirds vote
next Tuesday, but they need the
active and moral support at this
time of every friend of the cause
in the State. Liquor is being
freely used and every effort made
to defeat the amendment. One
vote may decide its fate.
Our object IN sending out this
in this crisis is to officially in
form the people of the situation
and to invite and urge all friends
of prohibition, who can do so, to
manifest their interest in the
pending measure and give their
moral support and encouragement
to our friends in the Legislature
who are contending for the peo,
pies rights, by their presence at
the capitol on next Tuesday. The
time has come when it should be
made known in no uncertain ac-
cents, that a few dram-shop keep
ers, mostly of alien birth and
with unpronounceable names, To-
Gated in only eleven of the seventy
five counties of Mississippi, shall
no longer dictate the policy of
the proud State of Mississippi and
her representatives and native
born people on this great moral
and economic question.

THE SITUATION.
Friends of Constitutional Prohibition
Urged to Rally at Jackson Next
Tuesday, Pending the Vote on
the Pending Amendment.
Jackson, Miss. Feb. 5, 1904

Jackson, Miss, Feb. 5, 1904.
TO Mississippi orohibitionists:
Last February, large, earnest
and thoroughly representative
mass meeting of the prohibition
lists of Mississippi was held in the
city ofJackson. In the declaration
of principles then unanimously
adopted and published, following
true Characterization and ar
raignment of the beverage liquor
traffic, was contained the follow
ing:
I'VE favor the admission of an
amendment to the constitution
prohibiting the sale of liquor
throughout the State, by the Leg
islature at the next session, and
at the short session following, if
the amendment carries, the enact
ment of a prohibition statute in
accord with such amendment; and
until the constitutional amendment
be voted on and Gf passed) en-
acted into statute law, the Legisla-
ture is requested to enact such
restrictive amendments to the
present local option law as will
etfectually prevent the extension,
beyond existing limits, of the Ii
quor traffic.
Your State committee, provided
for by the February meeting, has
been striving to carry out, in
good faith, the policy above out
lined. A large majority of the
Legislature in both Houses is
friendly to our cause. A consti-
tutional prohibition amendment
has been introduced in the House,
and its passage has been recon-
mended by the committee on con-
stitution to which it was referred.
Bills making important amend
ments to the existing local op-
tion law have been introduced in
both Houses. As was to be sup
posed, true to their record, the
whisky vendors, in and out of
the State, with the assistance of a
few liquor politicians and paid
advocates, are exerting their ut
most to defeat so fair and dem
ocratic a proposition as allowing
the voters of Mississippi to say
at the polls, whether the State
shall longer remain in partnership
with the liquor traffic or not.
Our friends in the House have
made the amendment the special
order for 10 O'Clock a. m., Tues
day, February 9th. The first real
battle for constitutional prohibi-
ton is now on. To get to the
people the amendment must pass
each House of the Legislature by
a two-thirds majority on three sue
cessive days, but the first vote in
the House may decide all; so it will
be in an important sense the test
vote. Your committee and our
friends in the Legislature are
hopeful and confident of marshal

WONDERFUL RESULTS.
Even the Anticipation of the Gas
Gave the Student a Reg
ular Fit.

A good story is being told at the ex-
our 'varsities. He was attending the
chemical lectures of a certain distin-
gulshed, If not popular, professor, who
had announced for his next lecture GER
tain experiments with laughing gas
The student, who knew that persons
under the influence OF laughing-gas
were not responsible for their words
or actions, saw an opportunity of tell
ing the professor some hOme-truths
with 1mpunlty. On the afternoon Of
the lecture the professor called for a
volunteer for the experiments to be
made, and our undergraduate prompt
iy came to his assistance, to the
amusement Of the class, which had
been taken into his confidence. The
bag containing the hilarious gas was
duly affixed to the students mouth,
and he commenced to inhale vigorous
ly. The effect was magical, relates
Lordon Tlt-Bits. The student began
to abuse the professor in terms which
are unknown in Sunday schools.
The professor lent patient ear to
this testimony to his character, and
then, turning to the class said, with
the suspicion of twinkle in his eye:
you see, gentlemen, how powerful
this gas is, when even the anticipation
OF it produces such strange effects. |
will now proceed to turn on the gas"

They are fine, smooth, perfectly

are raised under glass, with scientific
ARE of the vines, all the superfluOus
leaves being plucked off so as to put
all the strength of the stalk into the
fruit.
only two vines are allowed to grow
from a single root, and they are sup
ported on trellises. The vines last
about six months, and sometimes reach
a length of 40 or 50 feet and become
as thick as grapevines. Branches are
plucked off. and they are kept bare of
leaves back of the point at which the
fruit is forming.
The earth around the roots is re-
newed from time to dme, and the vines
are so trained that the fruit is exposed
20 the sun. The result is the prOduC-
tiOn of tomatoes such as you don't
dream of here in New York, and the
supply is kept up until June, when the
outdoor crop begins to come in, and
people who appreciate really fine to-
matOes stop eating them.
