Hummel. the New York attorney. ac-
cording to the Cleveland Plain Dealer
Years ago the midget of American
Jurisprudence was trying a case before
Judge Van Brunt, then, as now, a per-
son of awful majesty on the bench.
One of the witnesses was unwilling or
bashful, or something else, and Hum
mel, who was cross-eXamining her,
worked very hard for every answer he
got.
Come now, madam, want to know
just what was said. Let me have il,
word for word.

such words. Really. / am too much

BILE people to hear"

Portable homes.
Savannah, of course, has large in
dustries, some of the largest in the
state and there are reasons for say
ing she will have more of them in
the near future. but she wants all
the small ones she can get.
We have no doubt the city owes
some, If not all, of these newly estab-
lished small industries to the work
done by her citizens in her behalf,
through the Chamber Of Commerce and
otherwise. They show what can be
done in the direction of the building
of a city by hard, persistent and in
tellgent work.
And the work of the last year has
been so successful that it encourages
greater effort in the future. We see
no reason why Savannah shouldn't
have population of more than 100 900
and wealth double what she has now
when the next census is taken, and
this, we venture to say, is a conserva-
tive estimate. The people seem to have
got together at last and are working
enthusiastically and intelligently for
the citys upbuilding. This fact, to-
gether with the city's natural advan-
tages, cannot help being productive of
satisfying results.

NO MORE DANDRUFF.
Newbro's Herpicide Destroys the Pes
tiferous Cause of Annoying
Dandruff

Does your head itch? Is your coat
or dress full of white flakes after
dressing your hair? That's the effect
of dandruff. Is your hair thinning?
Are you beginning to get bald in
spots? Are you already, in fact. rap
idly becoming bald? If so, that is the
effect of a measley little parasite that
burrows in at the root of the hair,
and throws up the scalp in dandruff
and eats off the hair at the root.
Sciences latest discovery is a destroyer
of that pestiferous germ. That de-
stroyer is contained in no other hair
preparation on earth but Kewhro's
Herpicide. Try it, and be convinced.

north. l have known oysters when
they got into the mood to clasp about

tight as any rat trap ever invented.

"Alabama!'' shrieked the clerk.

Alabama shrieked the clerk.
Alabama yields to the Empire
state, New York" called Delegate
Russell, of Alabama, standing in his
chair, n arm grasping the standard
of his state marker.
"Martin w. Little, of medium
height and sturdy figure, with a full
cl~ean-shaven face, with a heavy mass
of dark brown hair, tossed back from
his brow and ears, took the stand amid
ringing applause, TO place Judge Par
ker, of New York, in nomination. Mr..
Littleton's manner of speaking is
calm and deliberate, and he uses but
few gestures. His voice is full, re-
sonant and of decidedly pleasing quail
ity, and could be heard further than
that of any speaker who had preceded
him with the possible exception of
Richmond p. Hobson.
The Kemper herald. (Scooba, Miss.) 1875-1908, 1904-07-14

close of Mr.. Littleton's speech was On
the floor of the convention and con
fined largely to the delegates.
New York began having a great
mass of flags, and the state standards
began to be moved up alongside that
of the empire state.
All that had happened in the con
v%ention up to the time Mr.. Littleton
concluded his address, multiplied
many times, was almost as nothing
compared to the hurricane that broke
ont when he mentioned the name of
ALTON B. Parker"
These names were presented to the
national democratic convention for the
presidential nomination: Judge AL
ton B. Parker, William r. Hearst,
Judge George Gray, Gen. Nelson A..
Miles, Richard Olney, Senator +. M.
Cockrell, John Sharpe Williams, Ed
ward C. Wall.
The roll call occupied almost exact
ly eight hours, and when it was con-
cluded there were loud calls of
|"Vote."
1t was had without delay.
alabama, % votes!' cried the
clerk, and Parker
Arkansas went for Parker, and Cal
ifornia split in three by giving some
to Parker, some to Hearst and one for
Mcclellan.
By the time New York voted, Par
ker had 367 to las for Hearst.
When Virginia was called it went
solidly for Parker, leaving him just
forty votes yet to be secured for a
nomination.
Governor Dockery, of Missouri, was
recognized and made q motion to de-
clare the nomination of Parker unan-
imous.
The demand for the question was
made in a universal shout and when it
was put by Chairman Bailey it was
affirmed instantly with another shout.
After nominating Senator Davis of
West Virginia, for vice president, the
convention, at 1:30 a. M, adjourned
sine die amidst scenes of enthusiasm
and disorder.
Senator Davis was nominated by ac-
clamation after a few states had been
called on the first ballot.

previous session. 1t was something
rarely equaled at any national con-
vention. Extras had spread the news
over the town that a nomination waste
be expected that night. AT two of the
entrances the pressure on the door
keepers and policemen was so great
that the lines were broken and many
persons without tickets forced their
way into the hall.
A series of energetic thumps on the
presiding officers table were given
by Chairman Clark in an earnest en-
deavor to call the convention to
order. The clerk ordered the floor
officers to close the %aisles. As Mr..
Clark stood at the desk Senator Dan
iel, of Virginia, chairman of the res
olutions committee, made his way to
his side with a copy of the platform
in his hand.
Without delay, it was reported that
the committee would be received.
AT this statement the crowd I'M
braced the opportunity to express it's
satisfaction at the unanimous report
to be made. A great cry went up.
Delegates jumped to their feet and
the first demonstration of the night
session occurred.
Senator Daniel said:
81 am unanimously instructed by
your committee on platform to move
the previous question of its adoption,
and | now make that motion.
cit was adopted a viva voce vote,
two or three delegates voting in the
negative, and they apparently in a
candidate for president" shouted the
chairman. A wild cry of delight came
from the galleries, who seemed to
think the whole thing a show run
for their entertainment.

ILLINOIS CENTRAL RAILROAD.

There is a growing disposition
among the people to prey upon rail
roads that should be discouraged and
as far as practicable stopped. All
seem Inclined to look upon them as
lawful prize in their zeal and haste
to fly into courts to recover damages
against them for real or imaginary
injuries. They lose sight of the i'm
mense benefits railroads have been and
ars now to the country. The Illinois
Central Railroad has especially been
of the greatest benefit TO Mississippi.
Through its agency, gratuitously be-
slowed, thousands upon thousands Of
citizens have been induced to come
from other States aud cast their for
tunes with us. The standard of this
citizenship has been of q high order.
They have brought Thousands and
thousands of dollars, which have been
invested in lands and permanent
homes, have helped to open up and
bring into cultivation the waste places,
INFESTED large sums in cotton fac
tories, oil mills, congresses, large
lumber establishments, rail- Dad, stave,
wagon, furniture and handle factories
n various other industries too
numerous to name In this short article,
by q of which the resources OF
the State have been developed and
millions of money added to the wealth
of the country. Aside from this view,
cast your eyes to our wonderful delta.
BY what agency has this country been
opened up and its amazing fertility
and exhaustless brought to
public view and opened to settlement.
All know that 1T is the l. @. Railroad
that has done the work. But for the
enterprise in building its net work of
lines through it, nine-tenths of that
territory would now be in cane and
forest, where now you SEQ splendid
plantations, fiourishing towns, viii
lagos and cities, and factories and in.
dustries Astounding over its entire
surface. But, 1t is said: "This was
all done for it's W private profit and
benefit" Grant it. Yet, still, all
the benefits enumerated are the fruits
OF their enterprise, which makes them,
nevertheless, a public benefactor
This institution has also contri but
cd thousands of dollars in charities to
our people, which we have not space
to enumerate. We will call one very
recent instance to your mind. But q
few days ago the beautiful town of
lazoo City was swept away by fire.
1t was necessary to rebuild. This
road has most generously offered to
transport over its lines all necessary
building material at half rates, thus
saving to that stricken city thousands
OF dollars. Let n people remember
These benefits and cease their too
often unjust demands against the
railroad. II you are really injured by
tue carelessness nt the roads and are
In fact, injured, bring suits for sums
adequate to tho dan g sustained;
but don't sue for five. ten, twenty
and twenty-five thousand dollars when
you are injured TO the extent only of
a few dollars. Don't play a grab
game only because you hope to gain
1t. 1t is as morally wrong to take
what you are not entitled to from a
railroad as from all individual.

Baltic Squadron Sails.

Baltic squadron will sail from Con-

is said, although nothing S certain on
This point, that the orders for the di-
vision will be opened at nve-day inter
walls. Whether the warships are bound
at once to the Far East in advance of
the other ships may depend upon ia
val developments at the seat of war,
but there are attending circumstances
which make it seem unlikely that the
division will start on it's long journey
until the other ships are ready.
