AN ILLUSTRATED MAuAZINE EDI-
TION or THE ECHO.

IL affords the management Of The Echo
much pleasure TO announce to the peo-
pie of Bay st. Louis and Hancock coun-
ty that ii has decided and made arrange
ments whereby mammoth edition of
this paper, profusely illustrated and
bound in magazine form, win be issued
some time within the next two or three
months, to emanate from our new news
paper office building on the corner Front
and State streets. 1t was our intention
some months ago TO get out this special
edition, which will be entirely separate
from our regular one, around the holiday
season, but it was found not only inn
practicable but utterly impossible to un-
dertahe so large work in our present
all too small quarters. For this work
The Echo has been particularly fortu-
nate in securing the services OF Messrs.
II. l.. and Il. II. Lyons, OF Laurel, Miss,
two young gentlemen who are specialists
in the work, and who come to Bay st.
Louis at our special solicitation. They
will collect and compile the data neces-
sary which will make this edition worthy
Of life preservation and will attend to tn
advertising department. 1t is safe to
say nothing of the like has ever been at
tempted in this section. Much history
abounds in Bay ST. Louis, its undevelop-
ed resources are wonderful and as
summer and winter resort il has no
equal. These will be given special at
tention and the city Will never have re-
ceived 1: better and more representative
advertisement than this proposed edition
with circulation up in the thousands.
We propose to give Logtown and Pearl
ington as we'll as Wayeland an opportu-
nifty to be represented in this edition.

From the Gulfport Record.
The Sea Coast Echo of Bay st. Louis
will shortly issue an illustrated edition
descriptive of its beautiful home town
and other communities in Hancock coun-
ty. That such an edition will prove Of
the highest value to the county and that
it should meet with bountiful encour-
agement from the business fraternity
are facts that go without saying. The
Echo has recently become an exception
ally good paper, and this new testimon-
ial of its progressiveness elicits our warm
est congratulations.

sion should present itself, and Mr.. Sau-
cier then SAID that he would like to OBJ
tain position in New Orleans.
"You shall have it, If you can fill il"
was the Presidents reply.
So when the change in the Collector
ship was imminent, Mr.. Saucier wrote TO
President Roosevelt and asked for the
position Of Cashier in the Customs De-
partment. He also filed his application
with the Collector of Customs and the
Executive Committse.of the Lily Whites.
Now, by virue Of his splendid Ameri-
can manhood and OF his distinguished
services in the cause of his country, Mr..
Saucier, friend of the Chief Magistrate
OF this glorious Republic, has succeeded
in obtaining responsible position under
the Government. IL is safe to say that
this is the first time that an applicants
petition for public position has been
indorsed to the department by the Pre-
sident Of the United States.

Governor Longino's Daughter Injured:

Governor Longino's 6-year old daugh-
ter, Annie Ramsay, was seriously injur-
ed Monday morning by fall from the
hall banister. She was unconscious for
several hours, and fears were entertain
led that there had been conclusion of the
brain or some injury to the spine. DR..
Hunter, who is attending the unfortunate
title patient, states that there is so far
no symptom of spinal injury.
The child has been accustomed to slide
down the banisters every morning down
to breakfast, instead of walking down
the stairs. Monday morning she evi-
IDENTIFY started to do the same thing, lost
her balance and fell to the floor below,
probably from near the top Of the stairs.
The house servant passed her several
times as she lay ON the floor, but thought
nothing Of II, as there was nothing in
her position to indicate that she was
hurt. He supposed she was simply play
ing on the floor. A short time after
ward, however, she was discovered to
be unconscious, and tenderly taken to
bed, while the physician was summoned
in haste.
The little girl is singularly bright and
winsome creature, and everyone hopes
that the injuries may proves less serious
than they were at first thought to be.

ly good knowledge of Spanish. She was also we'll up in office work, and soon had charge of an important office. Brains and good working Spanish made her valuable.
 We Americans are most remiss in this matter of languages. The other eve- ming I was at dinner where were European bankers and merchants. The conversation went on in German, English, Spanish and French success sively. Every one of these practical and successful men had several languages at the tip of their tongues. and theyuse them every day in their business. In the United States we have too much high school" French, too much book German.
 Another hint to young American stenographers: Learn to spell What is the matter with the spelling, even of college graduates? And what has be- come of old Noah Webster and his spelling book? I have recently seen some work done by really bright young Americans. Their spelling was de- plorable. Perhaps too many things are taught in the States Also newly fiedged translators are prone to make translation of the Chinese, literal order, and the result is an English that is most lamentable. The right use of words, and the literary faculty in even a humble degree are lacking. A vete- ran translator told me the other day that he derived no little profit from doing all over again the work of the half feged translators who profess to

the piles could be easily driven. After the piles were driven they were al- lowed to set for twenty four hours, af- ter which it was found to be impossible to drive them quarter of an inch, though they were hammered until they were worn down.
 This bed of mirabilite extends for an undetermined. though certainly for very considerab ble, area inland, as has been determined by excavations and borings.
 ''The actual condition of that part of the lake has never been deter mined, I believe, from the conditions which seem to prevail that the lake bed where the Lucia cutoff is located, is nothing but ordinary sand.
 There is no evidence of a subterra- mean outlet from the lake at any point. The fact that there is such an extraor- dinary amount of salt in the water proves that there is no outlet, except by evaporation.
 The fact that the lake level re- spends to the fluctuations of the cli- mate is another conclusive proof that there is no outlet, and no escape for the water through sinks similar to the sink of the Humboldt river in Nevada.
 Such an outlet would serve as a regulator and keep the lake at con- stant level, ever decreasing regardless of the constant precipitation. Such an outlet is not indicated by any of the conditions known.
 Tt is a fact that some areas of the lake bottom are less firm than other: areas, but it is because those areas have not been covered by a precipita- ton of mirabilite.
 ''The railroad engineers made a grave and costly error in failing to have borings and a careful survey of the lake bottom made over their pro- posed route prior to beginning such a task as building railroad over that arm of the lake"
 Section Director Murdoch also oppos- es the theory of a subterranean outlet at that or any other point of the lake. His theory is similar to that of Profess sor Talmage. He said:
 T scarcely think it parallel of the Humbolt river The only plausible ex- planation I could offer is that at one time the lake was exceedingly deep at that point and that during the Lake Bonneville period the Bear river car ried alluvium and slit into the Bear River Bay in such vast quantities as to fill up that neck of the bay. "The place they endeavored to bridge may have been an old channel of the Bear river itself, and has been filled by the materials carried down by the wa ter. It does seem strange that they cannot strike bottom. '-Salt Lake Let ter to the New York Sun.

ADVICE TO YOUNG AMERICANS.
Who are Thinking of Settling in Mexic

who are Thinking of Settling in Mexico.
 Young Americans coming here also discover that their chances are vastly better if they can talk Spanish. It would seem to be the part of wisdom on the part of Americans purposing to set tie in Mexico to learn Spanish by the natural method, before arriving here. Merely grammatical instruction won't do at all. Unless the ear is cultivated so that the students learn to hear and understand, his Spanish is merely s'book" stuff and of little utility.
 It is a good sign that in the United States more practical methods are com- ing into vogue. More progress can be made by the natural method, by the use from the beginning of the foreign lan- guage, than by studying grammars for years. Let the grammars take their proper place as reference books. The and the accent, the ear must be care fully trained. No books will do that. I mention this for some young Americans coming here with book Spanish find they must learn to understand the spoken language, which after all, is the real thing. Stenographers coming here and learning the language double their pay at once. To be able to take a dicta- tion in either language, and to trans late from one to the other with facility, makes a young man valuable A bright young woman from a western city came down here recently, possessed of real
