BISHOP BRATTON.

In the last issue of The Church
man, weekly church paper published
in New York, appears fine steel en-
craving of the newly elected Protest
ant Episcopal bishop of Mississippi.
The portrait is accompanied by the
following brief, concise and interest
ing pen picture of the distinguished
prelate.
The Rev. Theodore Du Bose Brat
ton, D. D., bishop elect of Mlssis-
sippi, is native of South Carolina
and a nephew of the distinguished
theologian, DR.. Du Bose. He was
graduated from the theological de-
partment of the University of the
south in 1887, and priest in 1888 by
Bishop Howe, of South Carolina.
During these years he carried on mis-
sionary work in several counties of
South Carolina and in 1888 became
rector of the church of the Advent in
Spartanburg, S. c., where he con-
tinued his work for eleven years. In
1899 he was called to the rectorship
of st. Mary's school, Raleigh, N. c.,
which had been for many years under
the care of it's founder, the Rev. DR..
Albert Smedes, and his son, the Rev.
DR.. Bennett Smedes. The latter feel
ing unable longer to assume personal
responsibility for the school, had
given it to the care of the diocese of
North Carolina, which in conjunction
with the dioceses of East Carolina,
Ashville and South Carolina. pur-
chased the property and made it a
church school for girls for all the Caro-
linas Dr. Bennett Smede continued
in charge of the school for only a
short time after he relinquished per-
sonal responsibility for its care, and
on his death, in 1899, DR.. Bratton
was called to be it's head. His man.
agement has been characterized by
much vigor, thoroughness, loyalty to
all the traditions of the South and to
the Christian and churchly instinct
which has characterized the school
for three generations. The institu-
tion has responded to his touch, il
has grown greatly in numbers and
has increased in scholarly thorough
ness. Should he decide to accept the
call to the difficulty work in Missis-
sippi, those in Raleigh and through.
out the Carolinas who will most fee
his loss will be most confident of his
worthiness of this high trust.

NO LIKELIHOOD OF RESPITE
Being Granted Antonio Dukes,
Negro Murderer to Be Hanged
at HaZelhurSt Monday.

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, May l4.-There is no like
lihood that Governor Longino Will
grant respite to Antonio Dukes,
the negro murderer who is under
sentence to hang at HaZelhurst next
Monday. The petition for clemency is
meagerly supported, and as the crime
for which Dukes was convicted was
one of unusual atrocity it is quite
likely that he will be allowed to pay
the full penalty of the law. The
sheriff of CopIah county has COM
pleted the scaffold on which the exc
cution Will take place.

THE NEGRO QUESTION
Being Much Agitated in the State
Campaign Which Can Accom-

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, May 15.-The most signi-
ficant feature of the state campaign
this week is the steady waning of
the agitation of the negro question,
which has been holding a forem ost
position AS an issue since the fight
opened. The conviction Is becoming
firmly settled that the agitation of
the race question can accomplish no
possible good, and is likely to result
in incalculable injury and dis
turbance Of social and industrial
conditions; that the negro is a per-
manent factor In southern life, and

is not problem except in the minds

to Mississippi for the purpose of
purchasing all of the rare paint
ings, tapestry, silver trappings, etc.,

celebrated Indian chief, Greenwood
Lefore, which is located in Carroll
county about nine miles from Green

Greenwood Lefore, who was a man of
immense wealth, during the reign of
Charles X, and brought to Mississippi
for his plantation home, which was
named in honor of the Bonaparte
place. There is some doubt whether
the commissioners will succeed in
their undertaking, as the Lefore
home is occupied Ply defendants of the
family who are in comfortable cir

of the civil war. During their stay

also visit the old home of Felix La

social functions will be given. but the
members will be entitled to all the priv
ileges of the club house and grounds and
among themselves will get up parties and
entertainments.
