P. j. Hines, believed by many
critics to have been the best south
paw pitcher in the league last year,
will wear a Vicksburg uniform this
season. He will join the local team
at Memphis. His addition means
that Vicksburg will be all light for
boxmen, and Hines will also add
much to the batting strength of the
team. The differences between
Hines and the local management
have been smocthed over, and
fines RENTED. Hines, It will be- re
membered, jumped tho local team
in mid-seascn last year. He was
sore because lis friend Jack Casey,
was fred by the local team. The di
rectors received telegram from
Hines this morning announcing his
WILLINGNESS T., come to Vicksburg

rlent has several other i&po''ant
deals under consideration; and 1he
prospects for Vieksburg having a

A Triple Tragedy.

Hartsvillc. s. c., Dec, 3.-Madison
James, farmer living about five miles
from this place in tho Kellytown eac-
tion, shot and killed his wife last night,
murdered his brother-in-law, Mr. Sid
Kelly, this morning about 8 o'clock
and was. himself shot to death about
4 o'clock this afternoon after an all
day fight by n sheriff7s posse. James
is n man about 90 years of age and
heretofore poaceable, inotfensive
man.
Two years ago lie was sent to the
asylum at Columbia and had been dis
charged and returned home only about
seven weeks ago.
Nothing is known of the events lead
ing up to the killing of his wife last
night, except that james had threat
ened to kill his wife's mother yester-
day afternoon. Why this threat did
not impress her son, Mr.. Sid Kelley,
is not known. At all events he shot
his wife to death in the early part of
last night and the other inmates of the
house, his wife's mother and his two
half grown children, fed at once.

With Secretary Morton asking Con
gress to give the navy $ll4 $50 ,639 81
for its expenses in the fiscal year be-
ginning July /, 1905, it is apparent
that the feet that costs 100000, 900
a year has come to stay. This vast
expenditure means that the policy of
naval expansion will go on until the
American navy is second only to that
of England in size, and will remain, as
now, second to none in ship to ship
efficiency. When all the American
war ships now building are completed
the navy will be the third largest in
the world. England and France will
be the first and second.

the world looks on with unfeigned ad

that is astonishing in its nature. The

0EPREpATioNs OF BOLD THIEVES

4 gang of thieves, whose special ob ject is the theft of saddles, says the Cananea Herald. has been operating in this vicinity for a month past, aad the police seem powerless to prevent the crimes or apprehend the criminals They select none but new saddles, anl their acts are particularly bold and daring. They steal saddles off of horses on the public streets and break into stables with impunity, until t would appear such property is safe only when the owner has it between himself and his horse. The saddles are probably cached in the near neigh borhood, and later sent into the interior to be disposed of But one, of the many stolen in the last year, has been recovered. end that was worthless when found, as the leather had rotted. It had evidently been buried in the ground or hidden in some very damp place.
