successfully in that section. More
corn growing in this country is
one of the things needed.
The ladies Of the Baptist church

next Monady afternoon at the

Anyone who desires to contribute
anything is invited to be on
hand. New clothes or good Sec

will be thankfully received. The
box goes to the Baptist Orphan
age at jackson. We understand
that there are two babies there
that cannot walk, so there is no
danger of giving anything too
small or too large. Let all help
that can.
Referring to the last item we
would state that the Orphanage
has IA large rooms to furnish and
an effort is being made to get IA
women to be responsible for $50
each toward this object. Place
the matter before your church So

The GOODYEAR Railroad.

The last issue of the Gulfport
Record contains the following in
teresting item:
ut will be several weeks before
the Goodyear syndicate announces
its plans for the route to be fol-
lowed by the construction of the
New Orleans and Great Northern
road from Monticello northwest.
The information comes direct
from Mr.. w. G. Goodyear, presi-
dent of the syndicate, who has
just returned to New York after
spending several weeks in Missis-
sippi inspecting the route for the
road from SlideII, La, to Month
cello, Miss. The Goodyears have
not determined in their own
minds what route will be follow
ed, and a great deal depends on
future developments. The dis
tance from Slidell to Monticello is
about 100 miles, and the construc-
tion of the road over this route
will be pushed as rapidly as posi-
Bile. There are very good reasons
to believe, however, that the road
will find its northern terminus at
jackson, for it is positively
known that that city is to be made
the headquarters for the Missis-
sippl interests of the syndicate,
which will be managed by Mr.. /.
G. Enochs, and it is net likely that
the company would put their
offices at an isolated point. "
1t is very generally understood
that the Goodyear line will be
built into jackson, where it will
have connections with two large
railway systems. The men at the
head of the enterprise know the
Importance of jackson as their
northern terminus, at least for
some time to come. The efficient
manager, Mr.. I. G. Enochs, is
thoroughly posted in these mat
ters, and his advice will doubtless
be accepted, and the road be built
to jackson at no distant date,
There could be no good bust
ness sense in stopping the road at
an inland town like Monticello,
which has no railroad connections,
except the little line that runs to
Brookhaven, connecting there
with the Illinois Central.
jackson is the natural northern
terminus of the Goodyear road,
and it will necessarily be forced
TO come here, and will run
through one of the best timber
and farming counties in the State
from here to Monticello.
In after years the road may be
built to Memphis, but for the
time jackson must be regarded as
| It's northern terminus.

a HAPPY FAMILY REUNION.
How Nc. and Mrs. Lewis Il. White
Celebrated the Fourth.

SNtSWto oes0 eals tVuttns
On the Fourth day Of July, the
family of Mr.. and Mrs. L. III.
White, enjoyed a family reunion
at the old home near Wesson.
The nelghbors had been invited,
and they came with we'll filed
baskets, glad Of ali opportunity to
meet with this noble family and
make the day a pleasant one.
From early in the morning they
came: Children, grandchildren,
relatives, friends and neighbors,
until about two hundred persons
big, little, old and young had as
sembled. A happier or better
humored crowd we have never
seen. The little children romped
and played; the young people
sang and played on their musical
instruments, the old people gath
cred about in groups and talked
Of things in general and Of old
times in particular.
At about twelve O'Clock dinner
was spread upon a large table,
built especially for the occasion.
1t was a large table, and it was
full. After the crowd had eaten
until they couldn't eat any more,
"they gathered up, well, "sev.
ersl baskets full of fragments. =
After dinner was over with, the
family, that is, the children and
grandchildren, were lined up and
counted; there being present six
ty four, besides eight or ten who
failed to get there.
At this iuncture, Mr.. L. HI.
White, who is now about seventy
six or seven years old, came for
ward and made a nice little
speech, thanking his neighbors
for their presence, which fact as
sured him of their good will. This
speech was responded to by some
of the neighbors present, in a
very appropriate manner. Take
it all in all, it was one of the most
enjoyable occasions we have ever
attended. Mr.. and Mrs. White
seemed to enjoy the occasion very
much; and, by the way, Mr..
White, who has been in bad
health for a long time, looked ten
years younger on the evening of
the fourth than he did the day
before. No doubt he felt better.
Before we close we feel like we
ought to say one more thing with
reference to this family. From
our early childhood we have
known this noble family. Often
in our boyhood days have we yis-
tied in this dear old home and
mingled with the boys and girls
of that home, and | can testify
that it was one of the happiest
homes we have ever visited. The
children all seemed to be very de-
voted to their parents and to each
other. We are glad to say that,
although the children are all
grown and have all married and
moved away, that this love for
parents, for each other, and for
the old home abideth with them
still. In our judgment, this is
one of the nobIest and best fami-
lies in this section of the country.
The parents are and long have
been consistent Christians, and
the children are all walking in
their footsteps. They are all
good citizens. While there is a
large family of them, yet / have
never known one of them to vio-
late the laws of our country; but
where ever they have gone, they
have proved a blessing to the
country and to the people among
whom they lived.
May Mr.. and Mrs. White live
to many more such reunions is
the wish of a true friend.

Continue Cautious Tactics.
London, April 19,-Baron Hayashi
the Japanese minister to Great Britain
expressed the opinion to the Associated
Press that Admiral Togo would not
give battle to Rojestvensky with his
entire squadron, but would continue
the cautious tactics which character
lied his attacks on the Port Arthur, not
because he feared defeat, but owing to
his desire to inflict the greatest
amount of damage on the Russians
with the least loss to himself While
confident of his ability to accomplish
the total destruction of the Russian
squadron in big battle, there is the
danger of Togo losing one or two of his
big ships Therefore. Baron Hayashi
believes Togo will employ his torpedo
boats and torpedoboat destroyers
which number more than 100, and are
vastly superior to the Russian torpedo
boat flotilla, In harrassing the Rus
slams. gradually picking off the Russian
warships. He said the coasts of Japan,
Korea and Formosa lend themselves to
night work with torpedo boats, while
the narrow channels will make the
maneuverng of large warships difficult
