Jackson, Miss, January 16.-(SpeeiaL) J. The Mississippi mills at Wesson, the largest cotton mills in the south, have gone into hands of receiver, Thad 5. Hampton, ex-treasurer of Mississippi be- ing named in that capacity by Federal Judge Niles this evening.
 This mill was incorporated in 1871 by John T. Hardel, William Oliver. A. Walker. c. NJ. Walden, H. s. McComb A. M. West and D. D.

 The capital stock was sl0O,00O and was later increased to $S4OOO0 in 1875.

"RobIn Hood.n

Robin Hood" the offering for this aft ernoon and tonight at the Jefferson, for the past decade has held the record as the greatest of all operahc successes. The main reason is that it combines & popular story told in an inimitably hu- morous way and the musical score by Reginald De Koven has not been equalled by composers of light opera in recent years.
 For over twenty years Robin Hood" has been the favorite opera in the roper toire of the Bostonians and up to the close of their season played to large re- ceipts When the BoStonians disbanded their organization recently, many opera companies tried to secure the stage rights of the opera, but it remained for The Aborn company to purchase the stage rights to Robin Hood" as well as the costumes and scenic equipment. The management of Robin Hood" have en- gagged such well known comic opera ar lists as the tenor.

"The School Girl"

Dainty and tuneful, ''The School Girl" is one of the most delightful musical plays that has visited Birmingham in a long time. Theatregoers who missed the performances of the piece at the Jefferson theatre yesterday afternoon and last night were indeed unfortunate, for 1t is one of the most captivating musical comedies presented in recent years and is characterized by music that is at all times pretty-oftentimes ex- quisite melody. It is to be regretted that "The School GirP' was so long in going on tour, but London and New York ap preciated it's admirable qualities so the south waited patiently until this sea- son.
 An agreeable change from so many mu- sical organizations that visit the south was found in the company presenting "The School Girl. Vocal ability was not lacking and there were well trained voices to render the music which Leslie Stuart wrote in his happiest vein. Miss Carrie Reynolds, as Lillian Leigh, not only sang well but imparted a most at tractive personality to the performance. She was the graceful, dainty figure that one would wish the school girl to be- May belle Raymond, as the Mother Superior, also revealed a sweet voice and Gus Vaughan as Edgar Verney, sang his num- bers with good effect There were sew eral other pleasing singers in the com pany. while the chorus showed far more vocal ability than one usually finds in that department of musical show.
 All the song numbers were sung de- lghtfully, the Little Girl You'll Do" and "Cosey Corner will finger in the so enjoyable that 1t would be difficult to pick out numbers for special praise. The staging of the various songs, light et- fects and ensembles also contributed no little to their success.
 The comedy element was well present. ed by Arthur Woolley, Harry Maxwell and Robert White, Jr. MT. Woolley has a comical figure and sings well. He managed to be funny without indulging in horse play. In fact the comedy was welcome for its refinement and orgi- nality.
 The staging of "The School Girl" was complete and satisfying. Although the scenery was not new it was pretty and some handsome stage pictures were pre- scented.
 Despite it's English flavor, distinctly apparent in the jokes, "The School Girl" proved one of the most enjoyable offer

Philadelphia, January 16.-The first definite announcement concerning the attitude of the big coal corporations regarding the request of President Mitchell of the United Mine Workers of America for a conference was made today by E.
