THE PRIDE AND PROFIT

The Vicksburg Herald reproduces the quaint
proposal of Mr.. Lake to the Council to turn
his Washington avenue building into church, and
comments on it as follows:
'Greenville which has shared with Vicksburg the
pride, and the profits %, of being wide open 2,
las adopted policy OF exempting certain sections
d its business district from saloons. The following
eai from the last Council proceedings, copied from
The Greenvile Times so informs us: "Mr. Lake
pralght up the question of renting his building to
Ar Isenberg for saloon and argued at length TO
he wrong of making him move and allow objec-
ionable characters places TO remain the oppo-
tie side of the street. Councilman Workman said
nat the minds of the council made up the
uestion and that the other places would also be re-
loved. Mr. Lake then replied that the only thing
< saw to do with his building to turn it into
,urch and to keep it going the Councilmen would
ave to join. He asked if the decision OF the Coun-
was final and in reply Mr. Wilczinski stated thai
was agreed that when they granted the last license
was decided by the Council that they would grant
II more licenses for that side of the in the fu-
Ere"
1t is case in which civic pride outweighs the
sohts Of wide open practice, and the exemption
this particular part OF the city from deiacine
#uctures and places OF business which many regard
objectionable is a matter in which al citizens
8 take pride in Greenvile interested.
Washington avenue is the main business artery

L novels that are allowed to deface it are singu-
incongruous with the prominence OF the street
the handsome buildings that are constantly be-
erected along it. In time of course by natural
val, these dscreditable places will disappear

ness paying well for the care they received For
these pay wards were established, where Injuries
were added to the skful care of trained nurses and
the private physicians Of the patients The support
Of the community kept pace with the needs Of the
institution which rapidly became self sustaining.
But the little hospital far small for the de-
mands upon it. It's charity wards always
crowded, and many. patients, both rich and poor,
had to be turned away.
Early in the last year the Kings Daughters un-
dertook the purchase of large and valuable lot,
proposing to erect upon it hospital which would
be sufficient for their present needs. The present
handsome of brick and stone, costing $2o
10000, is the result, and will remain for years to
come a monument 20 the efforts of band of ener-
getic devoted and intelligent women And also to
the generosity of Washington county and the citi-
zens of Greenville. The county at each monthly
meeting OF the Board of Supervisors, gives $1,000
to the Kings Daughters. The city of Greenvie,
through its Council gives monthly which has
been recently increased to $4,000 The Elks Club
gives $1,000; the knights of Pythias $4,000; the Mis-
sissippi Club $4,000; the Barkeepers Union $1,000.
The members of the circle, 600 in number, tax
themselves for monthly dues Tie revenue from
paying patients Of the hospital is considerable and
will be much increased by the added room afforded
| by the Home
In addition to these contributions from private
frequent and often consist of several hun
| dred dollars at time The circle, composed entire
| 1y OF women, is presided over during the present
year by Mrs. Leroy Percy. It includes many of the
most prominent ladies of the community and claims
to be the largest in the world as it is certainly one
| OF the most fourishing and successful.
Harmony and unanimity characterize its work
ngs and the remarkable success Of all its undertak-
ngs a sufficient testimony the public esteem il
which the Association is held and the earnestnes
| and business ability Of its members

TWO PROSPEROUS INSTITUTIONS

Two we'll known Mississippi Institutions are
the American National and the Vicksburg Savings
Bank of Vicksburg. These banks are closely con-
nected and the people of Vicksburg are proud of
success achieved by both The American National

TIRED OF TT

The unhealthy and pernicous American greed
for sensation has never been Extensively shown
than in the famous Patterson trial, which has daily
occupied illustrated columns in metropolitan news
papers and kept at least portion of the public
bdly interested for weeks.
Pictures of the woman defendant have been
printed by hundreds showing her in every pose she
assumed during the trial Her least word, look and
action have been reproduced and the whole case has
been stuffed down the Threats CT the Nation ad
nauseam. Nan Patterson herself has received many
offers of marriage from cranks or degenerates, and
many offers Of theatrical engagements from degener-
ate managers who cater a degencrated public The
whole case smacks of degeneracy. It's effect on an
entire press and people is a fit subject for study OF
Lombroso.
The woman, Nan Patterson, was chorus girl
the stage. She became the mistress of Caesar
Young, notorious sport and gambler. He became
tired of her and tried to get rid Of her While Oh
last spree together, while driving in a hack
Youngs pistol went off killing MIN. Whether he
shot himself or was shot by the woman is the ques-
ton for the jury to decide Probably both occu-
pants of the carriage were drunk to know how il
happened
Such are the squalid and contemplate facts or
which founded of 1.-THE most celebrated cases
ever tried in this country which called forth
floods OF maudin sympathy, hours and days of for
ensic wrangling, and a degree of newspaper motor
iety and reportorial trviaty which is wearisome
think of. The trial has cost nearly 100000. Mar
Patterson a character unmentionable in respectable
society, has been glorifed into a prosecuted hero
inc. Even the morbid public have grown tired The
exploitation of the Young-Patterson romance" has
been carried far The feeling off the people has
become great yearning to have it ended, one way

THE SIDEWALK CONTRACT

The ten bids for the contract came
before the Council Different bidders
of course had friends and supporters
among the public, but all the applI-
cants were responsible, high class and
reliable firms, any one of which would
have done satisfactory work.
The community is to be congratu-
lated upon the award made, both on
account of the character OF the Blonre
Company, and the cheapness of their
bid. The figures are more advanta-
geous to the city than was expected
or hoped for. 1t IS a striking eX-
ample Of the benefit which can be
obtained by popular interest and in
dividual effort Not every property
holder, but every citizen OF Green
vile has been personally interested
in the matter of the laying of the
| sidewalks, and the effect has been a
| widespread advertisement OF the I'M
| dertaking, and a competition among
| leading paving concerns resulting III
| the performance of the work at fig
ures more advantageous than could
have been hoped for had the con
tract been let without competitive
bidding, or the applicants limited tC
! smaller number
The carefully drawn contract anc
specifications insure the quality O
work to be done, and the undertak
ing, when completed, will give Green
vile the most excellent system o
| sidewalks in the South.
