INCREASED TRUCK ACREAGE

While the isconsolate cotton
growers of other paats Of Mississip-
pi and the south are schemiug in
every way to reduces their acreage
and thus compe ling their crops to
yield profitable price, the tendency
of the enterprising truck farmers of
the Hattiesburg TERRITORY is to in
crease their acreage, produce larger
crops and come still nearer to sup
plying the immense and growing
demand for the early produce of
these fertile southern fields.
The growth of this trucking busi-
ness in this 81 ction is one of the
phenomena of the transformations
going on in Mississippi these days

SPOkf AND HUB MEN
Object is to Combine Spoke Manufacturers
of South and Southwest.

The Association of the Spoke and
Hub manufacturers of the South
will meet today at 10 o'clock, at the
Maxwell House.

OF TIE w. E. Small Manufacturing
Co, Corinth Miss and E. . Buch
anan, Secretary, came in Wednes-
day night aud are quartered at the
Maxwell,
The object of this meeting is to
Combine all spoke manufacturers of
finished and club head spokes in the
South and Southwest, establish a
system of uniform grade and price,
and form a union in body with
their Northern brothers. The in
tention is also to engage a Secretary
and Inspector, who will visit the
spoke factories and keep the product
OF the factories In line.
The industry in the South is be-
coming quite important; the North
ern Eastern and Western manufact-
urers are looking to the Southern
to keep uniform
grade and prices, and if they find the
time opportune, anvance the prices
of oak and hickory spokes.
The class of timber required for
the manufacture of spokes is becom-
ing scarce In the North; the fact is,
it is about consumed, and the man
of that territory are
looking to the South for supplies,
not only of finished product but of
rough timber.
The timber which is now required
to make spokes is selling for better
prices in lumber form, and for gen
eral wagon stock than in manufact>
ured spokes, and it is deemed neces-
sary to form an association for the
dissemination OF information, self
protection. good fellowship and the
application of business principles
aud systematic methods, which can
only be strictly pursued under the
direction of a mutual business asso-
citation. Nashville American.

A Missouri paper says that new
Judge arose to charge the jury, and
spoke as follows:
Gentlemen OF the jury, charging
a jury is a new business to me, as
this is my first case. You have
heard all the evidences as well as
myself. You have heard what the
learned men of the counsel have
said. If you believe what the learn
ed counsel for the plaintiff have
told you, your virdict would be for
plaintiff; but if, on the other hand,
if you believe what the defendants
counsel has told you, then you will
find virdict for the defendant; but
if you we're like nae, and don't be-
lieve what either of them said, then
I'll be id if know what you'll do.

The capture of Port Arthur is
said to have cost the Japanese 50,-
900 lives. At the Yalo, at Telissu,
at Liaoyang, at the Sha and Hun
Rivers, and finally at Mukden, they
have sacrificed at least so, more
men in the prime of life. Consider
what these frightful figures mean.
More men have actually been de-
stroyed in the thirteen months of
this war than there are voters 10 the
whole borough of Brooklyn. The
casualty lists of the battle of Santi-
ago. trifiing engagement by the
side of that fought at Mukden, stir
red the whole American people pro
foundly. This Manchurian battle,
in which more men have been killed
than constitute our entire standing
army at the present time, serves for
hardly more than a days sensation
in the war news.

eyes from under their broad, basket

They were barefoot. None of them

teeth. IF the devil were shepherd,

called.
An answer in Cantonese singsons
came back from the junk, and the
speaker gestured toward the outside
ocean.
Then long parleying began. For
upward of half an hour Moran and
Wilbur listened to proposition in
broken pigeon English made by the
Deachcombers again and again and vet
again and We're in no way enlightened.
1t was impossible to understand. Then
at last they made out that there was
question of whale Next it appeared
the whale was dead, and, finally, after
prolonged pantomime of gesturing
and pointing, Moran guessed that the
beachcombers wanted the use of the
Bertha Millner to trice up the dead
levlathan while the oil and whalebone
were extracted.
THAT must be it," she said to Will
bur. "That's what they mean by point
ing to our masts and tackle. You see,
they couldn't manage with that stick
OF theirs. and they say they'll give us
third of the loot. Well do it. mate

want them aboard at all. Look at

shudder of disgust. 'Such vipersw!

had guessed correctly. A rope was

at the wheel, the grewsome business
Of the shark fishing, and, last of all,
that inexplicable lifting and quivering
of the schooner. He told himself that
now he would probably never know
the explanation of that mystery.
The day passed in preparations to
put to sea again. The deck tubs and
hogsheads were slowed below and the
tackle cleared away. By evening all
was ready; they would be under way
by daybreax the next morning. There
was possibility of their being forced
to tow the schooner out by means Of
the dory, so light were the airs inside.
Once beyond the heads, however, they
were sure Of a breeze.
About 10 o'clock that night the same
uncanny trembling ran through the
schooner again, and about half an hour
later she lifted gently once or twice.
But after that she was undisturbed

passed to the Bertha Millner, the Junk
put out its sweep, and to a wailing,
eldritch chanting the schooner was
towed out of the bay.
Il wonder what Charlie and our
China boys will think of this?'' said
Wilbur, looking shoreward, where the
deserters could be seen gathered to-
gether in silent, observing group.
"Were we'll shut Of them,' growled
Moran, her thumbs in her belt. "Only
now We'll never know what was the
matter with the schooner these last
few nights. "Hoh!' she exclaimed I'M

CUT
The dead whale was lying four miles
out of the entrance of Magdalena bay,
and as the junk and the schooner drew
near seemed like a huge black boat
floating bottom up. Over it and upon
it swarmed and clamored thousands of
sea birds, while all around and below
the water was thick with gorging
sharks. A dreadful, strangling decay
fouled all the air.
Ihe whale was a sperm whale and
fully twice the length of the Bertha
Mlllner. The work Of ricing him up
occupied the beachcombers throughout
the entire day. It was out of the ques-
ton to keep them off the schooner, and
Wilbur and Moran were too wise to
fho
| and rigging like a plague of unclean
monkeys climbing with an agility and
nimbleness that made Wilbur sick at
his stomach. They were unlike any
Cinnamon he had ever seen-hideous
to degree that he had imagined i'm
possible in human being. On two oc-
casions a fight developed, and in an
instant the little hatchets were fash
ing like the flash of a snakes fangs.
Toward the end of the day one of
them returned to the junk screaming
like stuck pig, a bit of his chin bit
ten off.
Moran and Wilbur kept to the quar-
ter deck, always within reach of the
huge cutting-in spades, but the Chi
nese beachcombers were too elated
over their prize to pay them much at
tention
And indeed the dead monster proved
a veritable treasure trove. By the end
of the day he had been triced up to the
foremost, and all hands, straining at
the windlass, had raised the mighty
head out of the water The Cinnamon
descended upon the smooth, black
body, their bare feet sliding and slip

~ Joined Moran on the quar-
ter deck. She was already
studying the stranger
through the glass.
'That's new build of boat to me-"
she muttered, giving Wilbur the glass.
Wilbur looked long and carefully. The
newcomer was Of the size and much
the same shape as a carayel of the
fifteenth century-high as to bow and
stern, and to all appearances as sea-
worthy as soup tureen. Never but
in the old prints had Wilbur seen such
an extraordinary boat She carried Il
single mast, which listed forward; her
lugsail was stretched upon dozens Of
bamboo yards; she drew hardly any
water. Two enormous red eyes were
painted upon either side of her high,
blunt bow, while just abaft the waist
projected an enormous oar, or sweep,
full forty feet in length-longer, in
fact, than the vessel herself. It acted
partly as propeller, partly as rud-
der

again.

the moment: Hob! More Cinnamon

eyes. These are real beachcombers.
I've heard of them along this coast
heard our Cinnamon speak of them
They beach that junk every night and
camp on shore. They're scavengers, as
you might say-pick up what they can
find or plumber along shore abalones,
shark fins, pickings of wrecks, old
brass and copper, seals, perhaps; tur-
tie and shell. Between whiles they
fish for shrimp, and I've heard Kitchell
tell how they make pearls by dropping
bird shot into oysters. They are Kali
gingh to a man, and, according to
Kitchell, the wickedest breed Of cats
that ever cut teeth"
The junk bore slowly down upon the
schooner In few moments she had
hove to alongside. But for the enor-
nous red eyes upon her bow she was
innocent of paint. She was grimed and
shellacked with dirt and grease and
smelled abominable. Her crew were
Cinnamon, but such Chinamen! The
coolies of the Bertha Millner were
pampered and effete in comparison.
The beachcombers, thirteen in number,
were a smaller class of men, their
faces almost black with tan and dirt.
Though they still wore the cue, their
heads were not shaven, and mats and
