BETTER FIRE PROTECTION.

The late tremendous fire at va.
zoo City, whereby almost chat
entire town was laid waste and
| 50, 200, 900 of property destroyed,
should serve as a solemn warning
to Brookhaven and other Missis-
Isippi towns, similarly situated.
Brookhayen has nothing but a
volunteer fire organization, and
The Leader learns that that is in
| a practically disorganized and in
lefectual condition. Four hum
dred feet of new fire hose was late
lly purchaseud and four new hose
reels, but we are told by the May
| or that these have not yet been
placed in the several wards for
service.
Brookhaven's volunteer fremen
have rendered valiant and effec-
tive service many times in the
past, and they can and will do SO
in the future, if properly organ
llzed and equipped. It seems TO
us, in view of Yazoo's awful expe-
rience and that of some other
places of late, and the great prob
ability of a material raise in in
suranee rates, because of plese nj
conditions, it would be most time
ly for our leading firemen and our
city fathers to get together and
thoroughly discuss the situation
and take the necessary steps tc
the better safeguard che public
both against fire and higher insur.
ance rates which are impending.

4 TOMN WITHOUT ORDINANCES.

In an appeal case some time agt
from the Mayors court of Brook.
haven, Hon. r. N. Miller, setting
as special Judge, held that the
city ordinance on which tie CASE
was predicated, was null and void
because the ordinance had moi
been published for three week:
after its adoption, as required BY
the code of 1892, in such cases,
and the case was thrown out Of
court. Several appeal cases
from the Mayors Court, mostly
negro blind tigers were thrown
out of the Circuit Court this week
by Judge Wilkinson because the
same point was raised by the at
torneys for the defense.
The practical effect of these
rulings by the Court is that
Brookhaven finds herself to be a
municipality without ordinances
either criminal or civil. The city
authorities hitherto have over
looked or ignored the fact that
the Code requires that the ordi-
nances shall be published for
three consecutive weeks in some
local newspaper before they can
become operative. As a matter
of fact none of Brookhaven's or
dinances have been published
more than once fol many years
past and this publication was usu-
ally made in the course of the
regular official proceedings.
The situation as it presents it.
self to the Mayor and police force
as well as along some civil lines is
a very serious and embarrassing
one and should receive the prompt
attention Of the Mayor and Board
of Aldermen so that it may be
remedled as soon as practicable.
Not only ought all the city's or
dinances be published in proper
form as required by law but they
should be codifed and published
in pamphlet form for the greater
convenience of citizens and Off
GERS.

Death Of Miss Jeanette BIikelI.

+
On Monday about noon the dis
tressing message came that Miss
Jeanette Mikell was in dying
condition at the home of her sis
ter, Mrs. w. M. Anderson, at
Jackson. Her two devoted aunts,
Misses Della and Elyira Mikell Of
this city, hurried to her bedside,
where for long weeks had patient
" sat the one who had claimed
Nette" as her very own since
she was left motherless babe.
Two anxious sisters had also
watched and waited, while the
lamp of life burned lower and
lower; and at last, on yesterday
about noon, went out.
"A shock of great sorrow and
sympathy thrilled the hearts OF
numerous friends and relatives in
| this city, when they began to
realize that it was indeed a fact
that che earthly life of their fair
friend and genial associate had
terminated.
Miss Ne.te,o as she was famil-
Fiarly known here by those who
had watched her grow from child
hood to beautiful womanhood,
was a gifted, cultured and popu-
lar young lady; and to her many
personal charms were added vir-
tues of a kindly heart and gener-
Gus disposition. She was the
youngest of three lovely sisters,
who had been reared by three
.aunts, who have given their lives
and would have given their hearts
blood for the sake Of these young
girls, or in their defense. To
these, all passed the meridian of
life, this mysterious dispensation
comes with crushing force; and
the sun will always shine less
brightly for them, because it
shines no more for her they loved
beyond all expression of words.
There is q peculiar pathos al
ways in the death of the young
we are prone to wonder why the
decrepit and helpless are not first
removed but there is CLEAN of
Joy in the thought of passing
from one anclouded sky to a sky
still brighter. The eager, willing
feet are spared the long journey,
and are lifted to celestial gardens,
and there is glorious transition
from earthly brightness to immor-
tai glory. Tender and great is
that Love which tgiveth His be-
loved sleep, . ere the eyelids grow
heavy with tears.
The funeral services took place
this morning at 10 o'clock from
the Baptist church, of which
body the deceased had been a
member for several years past.
The services were conducted by
the pastor, Rev, r. II. Purser,
who held up to those bowed in
the darkness of sorrow the bright
side of the picture of Death.
Appropriate music was furnished
by a select choir. Following
were the pail bearers: Prof.
Swea1ingen, Hon. g. G. Lyell,
Nj. E. {. Ragland, of jackson,
and Messrs. w. f. Parsons, w.
d. Davis and M. 7. Flood, of this
city.
The floral offerings were ex-
qulsite, and the new made mound
was covered with the sweet,
fragrant blossoms, tributes of
affection from many who loved
the departed one.
''some day this earthly house shall fail,
And no more as now shall sing;
But, Obi the bliss when awake
Within the palace of the King"
