Hiss Wren Pearson.

The New York Press of March
18th thus speaks of Port Gibson's
gifted young violinist:
"The concert given at the Wal
dof-Astoria last evening was a de-
lightful entertainment and Miss
Wren Pearson, a violin pupil of
Mr.. Wickes, was enthusiastically
received. She played two numbers,
accompanied by Mime. Delhaze-
Wickes. She rendered the Adagio,
by Vieuxtemps, with much feeling
and in a smooth and graceful way,
and Scherzo, by Won Goens. she
played with dash and FIRE. As Miss
Pearson is a magnetic performer,
she is capable of holding an audi
ence.
Another successful affair was
the pupils recital given at the Met
ropolitan College of Music. Miss
Wren Pearson gave two violin Sc
lections. air by Bach and a Hunga-
rian dance by Brahms. She played
these numbers in her usual richness
of tone and was recalled three

The charter of The Mississippi,
Louisiana and Texas Railroad Com
pany, published in the Shreveport
Times, suggests some important
work for our Business League,
which has been two years threaten
ing to materialize. This company
Is chartered with domicile at Shreve-
port and capital stock fixed at
$3I, 900.
Article of the charter reads as
follows:
"The objects and purposes for
which this corporation is organized
and founded, and the nature of the
business to be carried on by it are
declared to be the erection, con-
struction, establishment, operation
and maintenance of a railroad from
the city Of Guthrie, in the Territory
of Oklahoma thence through the
said Territory of Oklahoma and
through Indian Territory, to or
near the city of Texarkana, in the
State of Arkansas then through
the State of Louisiana to or near
the city of Shreveport. in said
State thence through the parishes
of Bossier, Webster, Claiborne,
Union or Lincoln, Ouachita, Rich
land, Tensas, or Catahoula or Con-
cordia, crossing the Mississippi
river at or near St. Joseph on the
said river, or the town of Vidalia
on the said Mississippi river, as
may be hereafter determined after
surveys and adoption of the most
eligible route thence in south
easterly direction through the states
of Mississippi and Alabama, to PEN
sacola, Florida, the terminus of said
road, on the Gulf of Mexico"
And now the question Are we
of Tensas sufficiently interested to
go out after this road and get it, or
shall Vidalia take it by default
Reason enough for Business Lea
que.
This week circular letters have
been received in Port Gibson ask
ing for bond-buyers, prospective
purchasers to pay only on condi-
ton that the road comes through
Port Gibson. The Reveille believes
that there is a possibility of getting
this new road if we get to work and
offer inducements.

Interesting Letters from Our

Mrs. M. A. Moore, of Tackon, is
guest of relatives here this week.
Rev. B. F. Lewis, of Canton,
was a visit to his sister. Mrs. d.
w. Jones, on Thursday.
Mr.. Tom. Sugg was Jackson
visitor on Sunday.
The many friends of DR.. Hughes
regret to hear that he is reported
i'll. No man is more highly esteem

years of useful life.
Mr.. S. E. Dudley's little son Ed

ent in the breaking of a collar bone,
last week.
Our Presbyterian friends had a
meeting on Sunday, and appointed
a committee to confer with Rev. Mr..
Brownlee to see if they could Sc
cure his services as minister for
this church.
The Methodists had thei- first
service in their new church on Sun
day. It was a lovely day and sew
eral people from other churches and
communities were out. A collection
was taken for the American Bible
Society, and Mr.. McKeown said
that the new order of service would
be taken up on the next fourth
Sunday.
Rev. Mr.. P'Pool will preach a
special sermon on the evidences of
Christianity next Sunday, at the
Baptist church, and cordially in
vites all the people.
The frost on Tuesday night killed
some of the young beans and in
jured tomato plants.
Several of our people have been
eating new English peas, and sew
eral crates were shipped this week.
d. A. Lowe, the enterprising
grocer, opened up his soda-water
apparatus in full force last week
but his dash in that case was some
what like the famous ride of John
Gilpin.
Our people are generally rejoiced
that Gov. Vardaman did not veto
the Alcorn College appropriation,
as feared. This institution is man
aged very much on the style OF
Booker Washington's Tuskeegee
Institute, proposing to teach only
so much literary education as will
enable the pupils to master the
craft, such as shoe-making, black
smithing, carpentry; and cooking
and dressmaking for girls.
A call has been issued for meet

WEEDS

Consumption is a human
weed flourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young f;
when old, sometimes inn
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption SO
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consumP-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can. that's the treatment and
that's tie best treatment.

However, as far as the number of trans

indication of any falling off, for there was
an increase of twenty-five over the pre-

Out of the thirty nine building permits
issued during the week, thirty were
for dwelling houses or buildings for do
mestic purposes. AS will be seen In the
above table. both as to dollars and cents
and as to number of permits. there was
a considerable decrease as compared with
the previous week. This can be safely
laid to the same causes which were re
sponsible for the small amount of busi-
ness done by real estate dealers.
The week was entirely devoid Of any
notable features in permits issued, the
only ones deserving mention being: To
D. c. Morton for two-story frame dwell
ing house to be erected on Common
wealth avenue, ST. Anthony Park, be-
tween Raymond avenue and Chelmsford
street, to cost $4,000; O.. E. Ray, for a

tween Tenth and Spruce streets, Hoyt's
addition, and to cost $4,000.
Work on the buildings now in course Of
construction in the down town district
has been almost totally interrupted by
the rainy weather of the last three days.
There are now four buildings in that sec
