Beauyoir.

Inc lOllOWlng RESOLUTIONS express
ing the sense of the veterans az to
the maintenance of Beauvoir by the
state, were adopted by Yazoo Camp,
U.C.V. and will be endorsed by every
camp in Mississippi. 1t will be pre-
sented as a memorial to that body,
which we trust will provide the sup
port which some of the old veterans
need so badly, to which they are en-
titled by reason of service rendered,
and which the vast majority of all
good citizens will approve:
Mississippi as sovereign state,
withdrew from the Union, allied and
united her fate and fortune with the
Confederacy. To vindicate and main
tain her action against the compulsion
of Northern states, she, in her hour
of need and peril, appealed to the
patriotism of her sons, to arm and
meet the deadly conflict of war.
Bravely and promptly they responded
to the call. Home, family, wife, chill
dren and business were abandoned.
They, with heroic fealty to their state,
braved death on many battle fields, and
sacrificed their worldly possessions.
When TIA cruel war was over these
brave sDldi ,r sons Of Mississippi found
themselves stripped of their property
and previous earnings, and life, at
mature manhood, was the beginning
of a new career.
All these sacrifices were for Missis-
sippi and at her call. The state now
owes these aged-war veterans debt
of maintenance and support. The
failure of its performance will be
reproach to her name and blot of
her escutcheon, which time cannot
efface, and which will live as a shame
to her on the page of history for
future ages. Mississippi cannot show
her appreciation Of the gallant and
heroic men who periled life and sacri-
feed fortune in her cause in that dark
period which tried mems souls, more
than by liberal appropriations for the
equipment and maintenance of Beau
voir as a home of comfort and rest in
their old age. Nearly every state,
both in the North and in the South,
has furnished homes and provided
support for their old soldiers. Of the
Confederate states Mississippi has so
far stood almost alone in the neglect
of a home for the old soldiers We
trust, hope and pray that our state
will no longer turn deaf ear to the
silent voice which comes from the
want, sufferings and needs of the old
veterans, now when time and years
has sapped their strength and wither-
cd their energy.
Therefore, Yazoo Camp, U. C. ",
do earnestly memorable the Legisla-
ture of the state of Mississippi to
make liberal and ample appropriations
to equip and maintain Beauvoir as
home for the needy and homeless
Confederate veterans of the state,
and in the appeal for the appropria-
tion we believe that we voice the
heartfelt sentiment and wishes of |
every good citizen of Yazoo county,
both men and women.

The Vagrant.

A vagrant is vagrant anywhere
you may find him, no matter what his
color, whether white, black, yellow
or green. He is the one individual
who has never done the community
any good; on the contrary, there is
always a kind of suspicion surround
ing his manoeuvers and associates,
most generally at some time or an
other he is coupled with crime.
Now, in the spring time is the time
work and employment is abundant and
industries and farms and plantations
need more labor than they can get.
Scarcity of labor is the general cry
throughout the cotton belt. Con-
tractors are seeking labor elsewhere,
both skilled and unskillcd. and he who
cannot find Job" of some kind to
earn living is not seriously on the
hunt.
There is really not foot of space
in Arkansas on which a vagrant and
loafer ought to be allowed to stand.
The room he occupies would smell
sweeter without him. 4
There are many villages and towns
in the state, however, that are afiict-
ed with such fellows, some white, but
mostly black. They don't work for a
living, yet they live, and often look
sleek and fat Further comment
is not needed as to how they get
their living, but the facts are suf-
fciently apparent to call for action
from the courts and munich alities to
get rid of such menaces to the peace
and prosperity of the community.
The idle negro nowadays is the
negro who won't work and is a menace
and danger in any place he finds a
harbor.
There is an abundance of road and
-
street work needed in every town in
Arkansas, and the country farms can
usually find a STEADY job" for one
more unwilling laborer when he shows
up by the side of a sheriff or consta-
Bile. This is remedy for the habit
ual idler and vagrant. If they can't
find something to do to make a decent
showing, find it for them. Unless
such fellows can show up compe-
tency already won and can take care
of themselves their cases should be
looked after diligently. The able
bodied idler is not wanted anywhere
in Arkansas and he should be gotten
rid of, 1t will diminish crime and
take away eye-sores in every commu-
nifty. Mariana Index.
The foregoing is applicable to every
town in Mississippi.

We are sorry to see it stated in
the YazoO Sentinel that Mr.. W. A.
Henry received some "hurt," one night
recently on his way home. 1t must
have been late, as all the lights were
out, and he couldn't see what was in
front of him. 1t has been a long

that kind, and we hope our friend,
Henry, will have no more. Such ac-
cidents are hard to explain on arriv-
ing at home, and as a general thing

follows: Sixteen years ago when our

finding it such reliable remedy for
colds and Group, we have never been
without it in the house since that time.
We have five children and have given
it to oil of them with good results. One
good feature of this remedy is that it is
not disagreeable to take, and our babies
really like 1T. Another is that it is not
dangerous, and there is no risk from
giving an overdose. congratulate you
upon tho success Of your remedy" For

vermonters IN Boston.

The Vermont association OF Boston
held its 18th annual dinner at the
Vendome Thursday evening with $40
persons in attendance. The guests OF
honor were Gov. j. G.. Mccullough and
Lieut.-Gov. Zed 5. Stanton OF Vermont,
William M. Olin. secretary OF state OF
Massachusetts, and Horace G. Waldlin,
librarian of the Boston public library.
1t was the largest dipner ever held by
the association.
President Josiah ii. Benton, Jr.,
called the assemblage TO order, and
after a few words of greeting read the
following letter from President Roose-
welt So
Il am genuinely sorry that it is i'm
possible for me to be present with You
at your dinner. There are larger
states and Weather states than Yer
mont but there is not one that sur
passes Vermont in the character Of
what is, after all, any states best out
put, its men and women. At no crisis
in our national history, political, mill
tary or social. has Vermont failed to
take the right stand. To a peculiar
degree all Vermonters embody those
traits of New England character which
have made the New England stock Of
such dominating influence in our
national development. | wish you
well with all my heart, and regret
that | cannot be with you in person.
sincerely yours,
eTHEODORE ROOSEVELT
Mr.. Benton said the membership of
the association had gone TO GA and
5000 persons had visited the head
quarters.
Governor Mccullough invited the
association TO visit Vermont again this
year and a trip may be taken but at
present sentiment appears TO favor
skipping a year and having a big bas-
ket picnic near Boston 10 take the
place OF the outing.

WEEDS
Consumption is a human

Consumption is a human
weed hourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds its
easily destroyed while young;
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 the best treatment.

authority on chickenology of the Unit

about chickens would fill book as
large as required to contain the writ
er's ignorance along that line, so he,
too was a visitor.
Prof. Dryden took us down to where
Assistant John Hopkins was weighing
eggs with pencil scratches all over
them. (By the way, these scratches
were not on the eggs when freshly
laid.) BRO" Hopkins was very care
full and explained that it is necessary
to be accurate in securing the weight
OF the eggs, as the whole experiment
with chickens rests on quality or
weight. He was trying to find out
how much certain eggs weighed that
came from a certain breed of hens
that had been fed "A certain amount of
food and which weighed so much.

Lines suggested on reading "Our
story of Atlantis by w. p. Phelon OF
San Francisco.
LOST ATLANTIS.
Let me tell you of our country,
or our land beneath the sea.
Let me breathe in loving accents.
What my soul reveals to me.
In the ages now forgotten,
When the earth was young and fair,
stood great and mighty city.
Filled with wealth and beauty rare.
can see its many temples,
Where earth children, pure and strong
Sought for gems of hidden treasures,
And filled the air with joyful song.
Fair Atlantis was the city,
With her teeming millions free.
But the cruel waves engulfed her,
Now she sleeps beneath the wave.
O the treasures that lie buried
Deep beneath the rolling waves,
Far outweighing all the spiendors,
Known to us in later days.
And the wisdom in those records,
Safe within white walls of stone,
Guarded by the nymphs of ocean,
Shall ere long their truths make known
Yes, the city now is rising,
Rising slowly to our view.
We are waiting gladly waiting
To begin our work anew.
There we lived and loved and labored.
There our loving comrades sleep.
There we made some vows that bind us,
Vows that we should gladly keep.
May our souls awake and lead us,
May these eyes our city see,
May we meet the ancient masters,
On our land so broad and free.
