house for some High Point customers.

Point, headed by County Commission
er w. H. Ragan City Attorney W. =.
Ragan. Judge Ward said he had
given notice when he first opened court
that people making petitions in cases
must appear in person and stand up
fo- them. 1t was shown that Menden-
hall simply accommodated his High
Point friends and did not sell whisley.
That fellow who got one of the

Spirituous Activity.

Southern Railway officers on the
arrival of the train from Winston last
night made big haul of liquor which
was evidently brought here for sale
in violation of law. Officer G. e. White
in passing through the train found
negro in one of the toilet rooms. The
negro made some kind of excuse and
hastened off the train. On looking
around a little the officer saw a tele-
scope in the window 1t had been
placed there so that some confederate
could take it out or SO that the negro
himself could get off and get it. On
being opened the telescope was found
to contain over five gallons Of Whis-
key. In another part of the train
gallon jug, of whiskey was found. AS
Officers White and Foushee went with
the stuff to put it in place of safety
they We're hailed by a crowd Of curious
spectators, several of whom offered to
provide suitable place for it.
Study in Wrecks While You Wait.
A passenger coach was overturned
last night almost directly in front of
the passenger station. 1t was at the
rear train of ''empties" which was
being carried across Elm street to-
wards the west. For some reason the
rear wheels of the car left the track
on which the rest of the train was
running with the result that the car
was hurled ''cat-a-cornered-lik e
against the end of another car on a
parallel track. 1t was turned square!y
over, being quite badly damaged in
the process railroad wreck right
in front of a depot was very unusual
sight and hardly any one passed It
last night without taking a second
look. A lighted stove was in the over
turned car, but the car did not catch
fire.

ing in the governors Office for the
purpose Of winding up its affairs and
settling with the contractors. 1t was
found that the building is now prac-
tically completed with exception Of
some inside finishing jobs of a minor
nature, but to secure the state the
commission held up $4,000 on the con
tract until the building shall be turn
ed over completed and accepted by
the trustees and the building commits
sion. The building will be formally
turned over at the next meeting of
the board in September. Supt. Do
byns, who has visited all Of the great
institutions of this character through
out the country states that the new
Mississippi institution is the hand
soonest and most pretentious of all.
Some states have more buildings but
as main Building he thinks Missis-
sippi has them all discounted. It will
accommodate about 125 pupils with
the matrons and heads of the institu-
tion. The lower floor is a large ro-
tunda connecting two long wings or
corridors. These corridors can be
shut off from the rotunda by large
folding doors or the whole of the low
er floor space can be thrown into one
grand assembly hall.

Junket Trip for Lumbermen.

Arrangements are being made for
d delegation Of lumber manufactu-
rers from Mississippi to visit the prin-
cipal cities of the East during the
mouth of September for the purpose
of pointing out the many advantages
and superior qualities Of Mississippi
celebrated long leaf yellow pine. AL
though the yellow pine is the chief
article Of lumber manufacture in the
south, it has never been extensively
used in the Eastern States, owing
chiefly to the fact that it has never
been properly introduced, and also to
unfavorable freight rates. However,
the northern forests on which the
states of the upper Atlantic coast
have largely depended for timber are
now almost depleted, and the point
IS being reached when they will have
to look to the south for their timber
supply. By conference with timber
jobbers and retailers it is believed
that the southern manufacturers can
arrange satisfactory business rela-
tions with the East. The visit is
prompted by the fact that yard man
ayers from the section of the country
have paid frequent visits to the state
during the past few months, and are
manifesting much interest in the in
dustry In this section. The lumber
output in Mississippi thus far has not
been curtailed by the quarantine, al
though the restrictions will no doubt
have some effect on the trade ere many
weeks pass by. The export business
has been exceptionally good, the Gulf
port harbor having shipped cargoes
aggregating 14,29O,OOO feet of lumber,
1862 barrels of rosin and 100000
gallons of turpentine. The exports
from Gulfport for the first seven
months of the present year aggregate
about 125,000,000 feet of lumber. At
the present rate, the annual exports
will exceed those of last<year by al.
most 10 per cent.
