COMMITTEE INSPECTS
BURNT ROADS.
President Aldrldge and others Visit
CIarkSdale and Are Pleased
With Observations.

A committee composed of Messrs. +.
NJ. Aldridge, ]. L. Montgomery, T. +.
Steele, J. b. Humphreys and B. 7. Sayre
visited Clarksdale last week for the
purpose of inspecting the burnt road
system adopted in Coahoma county with
a view to experimenting with it in this
county.
The committee was taken in charge
upon their arrival in Clarksdale by Hon.
]. W. CutreT, who showed them the road
leading to Clarksdale which had been
built and burnt over year ago. This
road was one of the worst in that coun-
ty before being subjected to the burn
ing process, but since then Mr.. Cutrer
informed the committee that il had been
in tirst-class condition every day and
that teams carrying heavy loads could
go o. it at all times in trot.
The, committee was so we'll pleased
with the burnt road system that it re-
commended to the Board OF Supervisors
this week that the levees near Capt.
Pillows and Mr.. j. I. Flanagan's be put
through the burning process and let our
people see how effectiveit is in making
good roads.
II the system is as good as is claimed
for it, our Board should not hesitate
about adopting it for the whole county,
In Coahoma county the Board has issued
100000 in bonds to be used in the max
ing of more burnt roads.
During the stay of Messrs. Aldridge,
Montgomery, Humphreys, Steele and
sayre in Clarksdale they were royalty
entertained at the palatial home of Hon,
j. W. Cutrer.

RIVER RIPPLES.
P. S. GEORGE.

The steamer Osborn has laid up for the
summer season. The Imogen has taken
her place.
The Imogen is the new packet boat
purchased by Barrett & Co., some few
weeks ago. She is light draft boat
and will be able to make her regular
trips no matter how low the water gets.
Mr.. A. p. Gormley is master and Brick
Auter is star-gazer on the little craft.
She leaves every Wednesday at high
noon.
The steamer Maggie will be beached
on this rise and overhauled thoroughly.
She will take the place Of the Choctaw
after repairs until cotton season.
The river is rising fast and will con-
tinue to rise until about Saturday.
John r.. Regan has resigned his posi-
ton as pilot on the Imogen and Capt.
Auter takes the wheel.
The rivers fall and the farmers kick,
but the steamer Imogen has all the lum-
Der and building material she can carry
down the i'azoo.
The gasoline Butts of vicksburg fails
to come to our port now. She transfers
at Belzoni to steamer Imogen.

A WATERS SPOUT
HERE MONDAY.
One of the Heaviest RainfallS of the
Season Visits This Vicinity.

A regular water-spout visited this
vicinity last Monday afternoon.
1t rained in torrents for several hours
and the streets were literally filled
with water for some time it being i'm.
possible to get along without wading in
water shoe-mouth deep in places.
The planters have an unusual spell of
the blues. The rains had ceased for a
few days and we all thought that good
weather had come and the farmers would
have a chance to clean out their crops.
But they were disappointed Monday
when one of the heaviest rainfals of the
season swooped down upon them.
The outlook is exceedingly gloomy for
both cotton and corn in this county, and
twelve and fifteen cent cotton is the on
ly thing that will keep this country in
its past prosperous condition.

COTTON ADVANCES
OVER ONE CENT.
Government Crop Report II and Price
Shoots Up Like Sky-Rocket.

The Government Bureau report of the
condition of the cotton corp was receiv'
ed last Monday at II o'clock, being n
or about twelve per cent. worse than at
the same time last year.
Upon receipt of the report the market
for December cotton advanced over one
cent per pound at almost single bound
This is some consolation to our plan
ters who have the worst crops they have
had in a long time at this season Of the
year.
1t looks as if the price will continue
to advance until fifteen cents is reached
for the staple, and it may go higher.

Some Corrections.

In publishing the list of the deposit
in the cornerstone of the new court
house building last week three errors
appeared for which we are not RESPONSE
BILE, as the copy furnished us was not cor
rectly written. The Confederate and U,
S, flags were listde as having been given
by one person, when it should have read
as follows: Confederate flag presented
by Mrs. T. r. Henderson and U. S. flag
presented by Mrs. May Whitehead
Green" The other mistake was in ref
erence to the Lehore county court
docket transcript which appeared "June,
1904" when it should have been "July,
1906.

.LEVEE BONDS
SELL FOR Sl.02.
President Barry and Secretary VIII,
iamS Make Magnificent Sales of
Entire Bond Issue.

BY the careful display OF good bust
ness Judgment President W. S, Barry
and Secretary +. l. Williams, of the va
zoo-Mississippi Delta Lcvee Board, sue
ceeded in selling and delivering on July
lst Sl45,000 bonds the last of the en-
tire issue of 100000 at par value and
accrued interest, amounting to $I.02 on
on the dollar, and without the expense
of brokerage as is usual in such transac-
tions.
Messrs, Barry and Williams acted as
their own brokers in disposing of these
bonds and they deserve the thanks of
the taxpayers for the splendid manner
in which not only this last sale was
made, but for the sale Of the balance of
the issue which sold for the same price.
This $780, 900 bond issue bears only 4
per cent. interest, and the sale Of the
bonds at a premium shows that the
credit of our Levee District is first-class
and that its affairs are being faithfully
conducted under the administration of
President Barry and Secretary Williams.
The bonds of the Mississippi Levee
District, we learn, bear or per cent,
interest, but we have not heard of any
such good sales of them as were made
by our board.
President Barry informs The Common
wealth that contracts were let by the
Board at its last meeting for half mil
lion dollars worth Of new levee work,
which would require about two years
time to complete.
When this work is finished the entire
levee along our front will be above any
known high water mark. The levee
will also be well supported by 4O-foot
banquette, and it ought to protect our
district from overflow at all times,
President Barry says that all that
portion of levee which has been com
pleted is in fine condition and that it Is
his determination to have every foot Of
the system put in the same shape. He
says further that the Board hopes to
soon be able to reduce the present high
rate of taxation for levee purposes,
but that this cannot be done until GER
tain needed improvements in the system
have been made.
We congratulate the District upon
the splendid showing the Levee Board
is making in the conduct Of its affairs.

Turnverein in War Time

The first Turner societies in the
United States were founded in Phila-
delphia and Cincinnati in 1S41, and
shortly after, the New York Turn
verein had it's start in Hoboken. Two
years later ten societies were flourish
ing and these were formed into Ma
tional Turner union, says Outing.
The revolutionary spirit which
blazed fiercely in Germany in 1S4S
was rushed for the time and many
patriots of superior education and in
teligence fed to this country as an
asylum. They were strangers in a
strange land, unable to communicate
with the native born and sociability
was limited to intercourse with their
own countrymen. They had been
Turner'S at home, using this organiza-
tion al nursery of patriotism, in
which high ideals of political, social
and religious progress were cherished.
together with the training of the body
for the hardships Of the field and
camp.
This ideal of classic times, wisely
reincarnated in modern Germany to
serve nations needs, was trans
