DR.. w. T. Lowrey, president
of Mississippi College, preached
at Roxie last Sabbath. We are
pleased to note that the institution
over which he presides has enroll
ed 342 students and gratifying
contributions are being made to
the building fund, without solici-
tation. More room is needed
because of the large student body
1.-The largest in the history of the
college.
It gives The Leader pleasure to
note another enterprise to be
launched by one of our toWnsWo-
men. Mrs. Ada E. Sessions Pro-
by will erect on the corner south
Of the Magee House, a two-story
brick building, Is feet front by
100 deep, which will be built for
stores, offices, club rooms, etc.
Work will be begun at an early
day, provided desirable tenants
can be secured.
Mrs. r. HI. Hamilton is having
the old ram-shackle shells on West
Chippewa street torn down and
will erect two up-to-date cottages
on the lots for rent. This is q
welcome change and one that has
been anticipated by those interest
ed in the up building of Brookha-
ven. One Of the old wrecks de-
molished was built in 1867 and has
history that some Of our town
patriarchs might tell about.
Mr.. G. w. King and family
left on Tuesday last for Brookha-
ven, where they expect to make
their home in future. This commu-
nifty suffers distinct loss IN the
removal of this family, all Of

this immediate neighborhood. Mr..
King is a quiet peaceable citizen,
who, in early life, contracted the
admirable habit Of attending
strictly to his own business and
letting other people S alonr. The
Advocate wishes them prosperity
In their new home. Franklin Ad
