By n. Z. ELAKEsLE, Jackson. n,,,.

A new industry, and. one that but
little has been said about, is being de-
yeloped by some of the saw mills in
South Mississippi. The Finkbine
Lumber Co., Of Virgins, has INSTALL
ed plant that makes tar, turpentine,
wood alcohol, creosote and charcoal
from the waste slabs that come from
the mill. The plant has only been in
operation short time but gentleman
connected with the mill told the writ
ert last week that it was proving a
great success. The large mills can
make steam with the planer chips and
saw dust, leaving the slabs for being
utilized as stated above, instead Of be-
ing burned as waste material they will
now enter into the regular product Of
the mill. The strlmps will soon be used
for the same purpose They are very
rich in the products mentioned above
and experiments are being made with
pullers for getting them out of the
ground economically. When the stump
and every bit of the tree is made Of
value and easily brought into mer-
charitable state, but little of the giants
will be wasted. Great is the age of in
ivention and the resourcefulness Of
man. s*rfE4 E2Bt

The "Cotton Pickers," the three
times prize winning crew Of Elks from
Greenville are in Cincinnati this week
attending he regular meeting of the
order and they hope to capture the
prize for unique display in the grand
parade. At Salt Lake City in 1902
they were successful in getting second
place and at Baltimore last year they
were again the victors for first place.
Their display this year will be better
than ever and they are reasonably
sure of coming off with the laurels
again. They not only have good time
on these trips, but never let an oppor-
tunity pass to do something for Mis-
sissippi. This year they will distrib-
ute advertising matter furnished by
the Greater Mississippi Association
and every one Of them will display a
Mississippi button on his coat as well
as talk for the state. They are hust-
lers and pity It's that Mississippi has
not moro just like them. Every Mis-
|sissippian is wishing them success in
the contest at Cincinnati this week.

Mgr. Macaire had consoling news about
the progress in the movement for re-
union inaugurated by Leo XIII. When
the Coptic patriarchate Of Alexandra
was established by Leo XIII in 1895. it
contained only Z 600 Catholics: now
there are more than $4,000, and the fu-
ture looks very promising. The condi-
lions and prospects of Christianity in
Abyssinia are not 50 cheerful. The
number of Catholics is about $4,000, but
they are prosecuted in many distressing
ways. Only at night and secretly can
they meet COR worship. Feudalisln, says
Mgr. Macaire, is still in full blast in
Abyssinia. and the chiefs have the
power of life and death over vessals;
