The demand for houses in this city
Is becoming enormous. Men with
their families are moving into the
city every day, locating here in bus
mess, and are comDelIed to board for
sometimes weeks before house can
be obtained in which they may move
their household effects. And yet
houses are under construction all over
the city, and every day sees one be-
gun or finished. Tt is stated thai all
that is necessary is for one TO place
few brick and load of sand Oh some
vacant lot to receive enough applica-
tions from wouldbe tenants to be-
wilder him. The man who, in this
city, owns property upon which he
has houses erected has veritable gold
mine, and the man who foolish'y
holds his real estate pronerty for
better times is to be compared
with the ola woman who killed the
goose that layed the golden egg.

A NEW PASSENGER TRAIN.

The Queen s. Crescent Route will,
on Sunday September Is, put on an
additional Passenger Train, to leave
Vicksburg at Sis a. m, and arrive at
Meridian at | :l5 p. m. Returning this
train will leave Meridian at 3:15 p. m,
and arrive at Vicksburg at Sis p. m.
stopping at all stations.
This Is service which has been de-
sired by the public for several months
and will, doubtless, accommodate a
great number OF people. This gives
three trains daily in each direction,
and is Just three times the number Of
trains run four years ago.
The new trains, besides serving the
needs of travellers between local sta
tions, will connect at Meridian with
the North and South Bound trains Of
the Alabama Great Southern to and
from Birmingham, Chattanooga, Cir
cinnatl, etc., the Mobile & Ohio, both
North and South Bound, and tie
New Orleans & North Eastern to and
from Laurel, Hattiesburg and New
Orleans.
Perons desiring to do business In
Meridian can go to that place. arriv-
ing at 10 p. M. have two hours In
which to attend to their affairs, and
return at 3:15 p. m.
1t will also enable persons in Vicks-
burg TO go to the state capital and
have all day to do business and re-
turn to their homes In the evening.
The rapid growth Of business in
Mississippi has made this splendid
service possible, and the manage
ment Of the Queen & Crescent Route,
always anxious to give the public the
very best possible service, has been
preparing for several months for this
addition to the service.
New ears and engines had to be

CATARRH IS Durable.

Worst Case or Will Refund Money.

Worst Case or Will Refund Money.
The average person with catarrh has
suffered for years and finally reached
the conclusion that nothing can cure
it. Until the discovery of Hyomel,
this belief was undoubtedly correct.
Hyomei has made so many cures OF
chronic and deep-seated cases OF
catarrh. that it is to-day recognized
.s a snecific for this disease. 1t cures
by a new principle. impregnating the
air Won breathe with healing balsams,
and not by pills, drugs or stomach
dosing. People who have suffered with
catarrh since childhood have been
cured completely by this scientific
remedy.
The Hyomei outfit costs but 81. 90
and consists of a neat inhaler that can
he carried in the vest pocket, medi-
cine dropper and a bottle of Hyomei
Fxtra bottles of Hyomei can be OBJ
famed for SOC. 1t is the most econom-
;caI of all remedies and is the only one
that is based upon Natures method OF
cnrino diseases of the respiratory
organs. =, oh ro-
,,arl.able results following the use of
Uvomei that he extends an invitation
70 the worst cases of catarrh in Brat
tlshoro and vicinity to call at his store
md obtain a Hyomei outfit with the
d;st;nct understanding that it Will be
ahsolntelv free unless it affects cure.
This remarkable and unusual offer is
the Strongest proof that can be given
of Hvomei's power to cure catarrh-

Inquiry made in high ecclesiastical
quarters dispels all doubts as to the
alarming impairment of the Pope's
health. Only long series of rallies
on the part of His Holiness when hope
had been almost abandoned averts des-
pair as to his condition. Official ac-
counts continue to represent the state
of the Pontiff's health as favorable as
could be expected, but such state
ments should not be taken to mean
that grave developments are not threat
ened. Intermittent exhaustion has
visited the Pope for several weeks,
sometimes taking so serious a form as
greatly to disturb DR.. Lapponi and
cause intense alarm at the Vatican.
Dr. Lapponi has striven in vain for
months to restrain the intensity of
Leo's mental activity. The Holy Faith
er rises early and sets to work at once
on the many matters that claim his at
tention. Apparently he tries from
time to time to lay aside his burden,
but grows painfully restless when idle,
and eventually resumes his task.
A st. Petersburg despatch says: In
view of the recent unsuccessful attempt
of Sven Hedin and Col. Kozloff to pen
citrate into the heart of Thibet, inter-
est in which has been added to by the
recent departure from New Y ork of Os-
car T. Crosby, an American, on the
same mission, it has just become
known that Russian subject. G. K.
Zoubikov, was recently residing quiet
ly at Lhassa or visiting the sacred
of that mysterious coun
try. NJ. Zoubikov is a Bouriat and a
graduate of the oriental faculty of the
of st. Petersburg. As born
Buddhist and familiar from childhood
with Thibetan. the holy language of
his people. he found no difficulty in
passing for lama. He brought back
an immense number of photographs
and other illustrations of the life of
the country, and when his book is pub
lished, as it soon will be, the mystery |
Of Thibet will be thing of the past. |
NJ. Zoubikov made an extended report I
ID his journey at a meeting of the Geo
graphical society few days ago. He |
was Immediately awarded the Przhe-
Talsky prize, which is conferred in
honor of the first Russian Thibet ex
plorer.
