Special Correspondence.

Special Correspondence.
Jackson, Miss, June 2oth.-
1t is reported here to-day on the
street and in business offices that
Governor Valdaman sent a direct
order to the sheriff of Rankin
county that he should close the no
torious blind tigers on the pike =
between Jackson and Brandon
Accordingly the places were three
times raided and will now probably
cease their open defiance of law.
Let all communities that feel
impotent and powerless before their
illegal saloons appeal to their gov
ernor for a like message to their
own sheriffs.
1t has been said that one of these
joints on the pike frequently took
in 1000 on Sunday, and it was
the boast of one proprietor that on
last Saturday afternoon he took
over the bar $500 in three hours.
No wonder they die hard. Let the
whole state commend this action of
Governor Vardaman.

A Maenifcent Book.

The Silent Places" is Il new book by
Stewart Edward White, who, in this.
has evidently found himself as a
writer. 1t would be hard TO say any
thing derogatory Of the book from any
point Of view. 1t could not have been
better done
The story is very simple. dealing mere
" with the pursuit of a thieving Indian

case Of writer of SO marked an in

differs from that charming love story,

such fashion as Mr.. White here sug-

Of London is. he has not staked out

his books are always the history Of
fights Mr.. White has done something
unique here. and the singuiarity of his
work lies in just this. that he has
brought the terror. the fascination the
brutality. and the beauty Of the wilder

times into single page, and handled
