Seldom, if ever, does one so an

become a worthy, useful citizen.
III we look to the other extreme and
behold one well born enjoying all

wherein is the environment a de-

departure. Then there must be
exceptions to the general rule of
environment as developer. From
this exception there may spring fu-

classes. We all had four grand
parents in our immediate family,
that makes eight, and if we go back

am now recovering from wreck
- not railroad wreck, but horse
power wreck. A horse ran away
with myself and brother, down a
long steep hill, last Sunday after
noon, April 3rd, and after one week
we are still sore from our bruises.
We were going over to sec another
brother, and just as we started down
the Baker hill, on the road leading
out to the dam, the girth broke, and
the shafts got across the horses
back, the axle ran against his legs,
and he ran. The hill was steep
and long and the horse ran with all
his might. knew it was serious
affair, when a line broke and |
could expect nothing only hurts,
probably broken bones, was afraid
for this, and | acknowledge it was
an awful state of suspense to be in,
inviting the finale, while flying
down that hill. When just near
ing the bottom the buggy turned
over and VIC under it, but it un-
coupled. The momentum was so
great 1 know we sided or bounced
twenty feet down and into the side
bitches, when we struck, and |
came near having my head burstcd
against the road bank, and bruised
and skinned all about in spots,
mostly about my arms, shoulders
and head, Brother had the same
bruises, but one will have to be
lanced yet. We were temporarily
laid up from active work, and it
took both of us to make 3-4 of a
man for week.
| For two days | could scarcely
move about. 1t is dangerous enough
to be thrown out of a buggy on lev
cl ground while horse is running
full speed and doubly SO ON steep
hill, and if have the least warming
hereafter, | don't expect to ride
down hill so fast anymore, | will
jump out on the first intimation.
My head is not built for butting
road banks etc, and would you be-
licve it that horse ran clear to the
dam nearly four miles, and carried
the front wheels nearly three miles
before he tore loose from them.
That was the worse runaway scrapc
| was ever in, and | have been in
several and mostly going down hill.
Later: In the case pf Bill Hill, it
now crops out that since he jumped
his contract he went to Florida and
back, and was doing active work
getting up immigrants to go to
chippcy, but he was not so sharp
as he was patting himself ON the
back to be. He was suspected and
was being shadowcd. Posters at
this place and Carlisle were watch
ing him, and at Carlisle he would
have been arrested as soon as he at
tempted to board train as that
was the objective point of his taking
the train with his shipment of en-
migrants. Mr.. Clarence Gist was
conspicuous in watching him at
Carlisle, | learn and difiusing in
telligencc of some of his movements.
There are steps being taken by sew
cral parties to prosecute him for vi
olating the state laws for acting the
cmmigration agent without license.

see scheming rascal foiled and put
in clutches where he belongs.

out that Hon. Haryle Jordan,
President Of the Southern Cotton
Association, would visit Brookha-
ven and address the people on
Thursday, Oct. 10th, which an
nouncement was made in Satur-
days Leader.
This was erroneous. Secretary
Wood, Of the State Association,
has arranged for him to be in
Brookhayen on Wednesday, Oct.
18th, instead Of the 10th. Mr..
Jordan will speak at The McComb
Fair on Tuesday, Oct. 17th,
Brookhayen, Wednesday, Oct.
18th, and HazIehurst, Oct. 10th.
The Lincoln Cotton Association
will meet in Brookhayen on We'd
nesday, 18th inst, and it is desir-
ed that the people of Lincoln
county, from far and near, come
to hear the head of the Associa-
tion, which has done SO much for
the cotton farmers and Southern
interests in general, during its
brief existence. Farmers can
afford to lay down all other work
on that day and come and hear
what Mr.. Jordan will have to tell
them about the work and the OBJ
iects OF the Cotton Association.
The farmers undoubtedly have
the cotton market In their own
hands, if they will stand together.
Southern bankers and merchants
are ready to cooperate with and
help them to win the fight against
the cotton gamblers and specula-
tors OF the world, and this is one
of the lines Mr.. Jordan will talk
on.
Be sure to come to BrookhaYen
on October 18th and hear him.

The Mayor and Board Of Alder
men met Wednesday evening,

bers present except Alderman

The quarantine was raised
against bananas from non-infected
points in less quantities than car
load lots.
The superintendent of the Pow
er house was directed to employ
the necessary help to repair the
entire electric wire system.
By agreement between this
board and the Board of Supervis-
ors it was ordered that a friendly.
suit be brought against the coun
ty for the recovery of tho II mill.
road tax paid by Brookhayen I'M
der the levy for the years 1903
1894, which the county has refus-
ed to allow. The sum involved
is ], 1,348.56. This action is taken
because of a doubt raised by a de-
Ecision of the Supreme Court as to
whether or not the city is entitled
to X the county road tax collect
ed on property within its limits.
The tax collectors annual re-
port was received and approved.
The Mayor and City Clerk were
authorized to sign and deliver to
the Commercial Bank the $40, 800
issue of school refunding bonds,
and to pay the amount received
therefrom to the Bank of Brook
haven and take up the original
bonds.
An order was passed that the
Board hold an adjourned meeting
on Monday, Oct. %, for the pur-
pose of canYassing the city assess
ment roll and making such in
creases and reductions as may
appear just and necessary, and all
tax payers are to be given the
legal notice of such meeting by
posting the same at 5 public
places.
The account of w. D. Davis,
for the lithographing the new
school bonds, amounting to $500
was allowed. The Bank of Brook
haven was allowed $83.74 on ac-
count Of interest on old school
bond issue after maturity.
The following tax levy was
made:
For general revenue purposes,
4 mills; general improvement
fund, IL mills; teachers fund,
~ mills; school expense fund, II
mill; water works sinking fund,
il mill; water works bond inter
est fund, 2 mills; school bond
fund, / mill; street fund, "a mill;
school bond refunding fund, "A
mill.
This aggregates a total of -
mills, the total of last years levy.
The assessment rolls give the tax
able property within the corpo-
rate limits, including personally,
realty, railroads, etc., as 81, $50, :
595 Ian increase since last year of
$32, 40.

In view of the fact that the ex :
aminations have been interfered
with in many counties Of the State

extent that many teachers have
not had the opportunity to stand

general examination day for white
teachers in the State Of Mississip-
pi, and the 10th and 18th for
negro teachers, fox all counties
that desire it.
You will please let me know at
once If you desire this exanina-
|tion for both or either race. This
examination will confer all Che
rights and benefits that q regular
examination gives.
Please give notice that no spe-
cial examination will be given in
