THE MISSISSIPPI INDUSTRIAL EXPO.
SITION.

The Mississippi Industrial Ex-
position, which opened at jackson
on November % and closes today,
has been a pronounced success
from the main view point--a fine
exhibit of Mississippi's agrieultu-
raj and horticultural products,
fine stock, manufactures, etc., and
big crowds of people from all
over the State in daily attendance
to see them.
We cannot 60 into details of the
different exhibits, but no Missis-
Isippian could attend the fair and
60 through the different depart
ments, without feeling thrill of
pride in his State at the thought
of her present and future posi-
bilities. The exhibits made by
the Illinois Central Railroad, the
Mobile and Ohio Railroad, Jack
Ison county, Miss, and the Mis-
Isissippi branch Of the Cotton As.
ISOLATION, we're superb, and dis
played the States resources to
fine advantage. Though the ex-
hibit of live stock was not as
large as could have been desired,
the specimens displayed we're fine
and showed that Mississippi has
much to boast of in this line.
The crowd in attendance on
Thanksgiving Day was immense
and taxed the capacity of the Cap
itol City to handle it. The Lead
er is glad SO many Brookhayen
and Lincoln county people availed
themselves of the opportunity
presented to witness the Fair. 1t
was an eye opener to most of
them as to what is being done in
Mississippi industriaIly. 1t is to
be hoped the Fair will be held
every year hereafter.

MISSISSIPPI CENTRAL.
PLANS FOR CONNECTING NATCHEz
AND PAsCAGOULA BY THIS ROUTE.

Hattiesburg, Nov. 27.-A new
trunk line of railroad that will
traverse the State of Mississippi
from west to east, that will con
meet the traffic of the Mississippi
river with the Gulf of Mexico and
that will open a new port on the
Gulf of Mexico and that will give
the Gould system of railroads its
first entrance into this territory
! with a gulf outlet, are the results
to Immediately follow a visit just
paid to the city of Natchez by
high officials of the Mississippi
Central Railroad to make arrange
ments for the extension of the
road from Brookhaven on the H.
Iinois Central to Natchez on the
Mississippi river.
President f. L. Peck, Chief
Engineer Archibald and other Off
cials of the road made the trip to
Natchez from headquarters in this
city.
The terminus of the road on the
west has been Silver Creek. At
present the company is building
to the west to make connection
with the Illinois Central at Brook
haven. This work will be com
pleted by the first of next year,
and is only delayed now by heavy
bridge work over the Pearl river
at Smiths Ferry.
The officials of the company
wish to continue work when
Brookhaven is reached so that the
contractors can without Interrupt
tion build on to NaGchez. The
company's engineers have been IN
the field for some time between
Brookhaven and Natchez, and the
route is pretty we'll defined.
Nothing remains but to secure
the right of way.
The attention of the company
will next be turned to the extend
ing of the line from Hattiesburg
enthusiastically to Pascagoula.
The Mississippi Central or its al
lied company, Newman Lumber
company, owns nearly all of the
land along this route, distance
of about 1870 miles, so that while
this railroad company is in posi-
tion to build the road any time it
wants to, it is equally prepared to
stand off all rivals for this rich
and unoccupied field. The ex-
tenson to Natchez will complete
the company's western arrange
ments, for besides offering con-
nection with the Illinois Central
at Brookhaven and with the Mis-
Isisslppi river at Natchez, it will
tap the Gould system, which be-
ing denied a port at any place
east of Galveston, is expected to
take full advantage of the opening
at Pascagoula.

THE CIRCUIT COURT.
The Court is Still Engaged on the
Civil Docket.

Since our last report the court
has been occupied with the civil
docket. The case of Charity Con-
nelly against the Butterfeld Lum-
bef Co. ct al, which was suit for
damages for the death of Marshal
Connolly husband of plaintiff, al
legged to have been caused by the
negligence of the defendants in
not providing a safe place for the
deceased, who was an employe, to
perform his labors, resulted in a
verdict for the defendants.
The case of the Steubenville
Pottery Co. VS.. G.. Henck & Son
resulted in a verdict for plaintiff
for the sum of $424.50. This was
a suit for debt alleged to be due
by defendant for carload Of
crockery sold and delivered to de-
fendant. The defense was that
the car of crockery failed to meas
ure up to the character of goods
ordered by defendant, and that
when the car came the defendant
refused to accept the same.
The suit of Mrs. Rosa White
head ct al VS.. the /. G. r. r. Co., !,
was settled, whereby judgment
was entered in favor of the plain
tiff for $3.50. This suit was for
damages for the death of T. V.
Whitehead, husband Of Mrs. Rosa
Whitehead, at Norfeld on Oct. %,
1903. At the time of the accident
Mr.. Whitehead was acting as
agent at Norfeld, and just as a
second section of train called No.
3, which Mr.. Whitehead misun-
derstood as No. %, was running
very rapidly by the station Mr..
Whitehead was walking along the
depot platform with a bicycle on
his arm to be placed on, as be
thought, train No. %. He Zap
pened to be walking too near the
track and the flying train struck
the bicycle on his arm and thus
caused his death.
Other cases of less Importance
disposed of are as follows:
r. G. Applewhite, administra-
tor, VS.. |. G. r. K. Co.-Dismiss-
ed. by agreement at defendants
cost.
Geo. Ratclif VS.. Pearl River
Lumber Co. ct al. Demurrer
overruled.
Oscar Thomas VS.. |. c. r. r.
Co. Jury and verdict for defend
ant.
Yesterday the court sustained a
demurrer to the declaration in the
case of Mrs. l.. E. Martin VS.. f.
B. Smith ct al. In this suit the
plaintiff asked FOR damages in she
sum Of So, 900, alleged to be due
because plaintiff and her husband
had their buggy begged down
and got wet and contracted cold
and other sickness in mud hole
in a public road near VIM. Smiths
place where under the defendants S
contract and bond with the Board
of Supervisors they were bound
to keep the road up to the plans
and specifications. The court sus-
tanned the demurrer on the ground
that the law under which the
roads were at that time worked
required that there should be a
separate contract for each road or
each link into which each road
should be divided. 1t will be re-
membered that all the roads east
of the /. G.. r. r. were at that
time let to and being worked by
r. B. Smith & Sons.
The grand jury had returned
only six true bills up to yesterday
afternoon.
The criminal docket will be
taken up by the court Monday
morning.

In moving from Bogue ChIto
we brought along our old mothers
-bellum spinning wheel. The
hum of this old wheel was heard
day and night during the sixties
to make the garments to clothe
three sons who we're shivering
with cold in the Army of Tennes-
see. Even now our better half
spins a little yarn" on this same
Iold wheel to knit undergarments
fol eur feet, which feel very COM
fortaaie while we face the bleak
wind of winter, carrying the good
news of life and salvation to a
sin-cursed world. Blessed old
wheel! There is music in that old
familiar hum, and will be as long
as we have ears to hear.
