Chronicle Suffers From Fire.

4 fire struck Chronicle last Satur
day originating in the loft of Bartlett
Livery Stable. The flames swept the
block north to corner opposite from
Mrs. Herupson S residence. eating up
everything in its travel, all the in
tervening buildings being wooden
structures. Southwark it traversed
the block in the Same destructive
way until it reached the Nicely brick
building. Here the devastating
flames were checked. The portion of
block or rather portions two blocks
destroyed was that part of the bust
ness part OF the town lying alongside
track north of new brick center peri
meters to new Depot Some of the
buildings which fell food to the flames
was Blrte!l livery stable, Jernigan
hotel, both barber shops, Allen 5
lunch stand, Lilly's hail, Denmark
meat market, DIR. Blewett office and
residences, Beard store and residen-
ces, Newell residence and store build
ing and miner small shops. The cdi-
tor caught birds eye view of the
wreck in passing through on the
train. Smouldering embers, ashe
heaps, crunibled brick pillars, soli-
tary looking and partly standing
withered and burnt flower
beds and shrubbery. shade trees and
a general whitened and lonesome
open, proclaimed the sad story of
the fire. The vacancy presented
such a transformed scene as to make
familiar lots almost unrecognizable,
thus shorn of their housely land
marks.

Wa. It Politics?

Some of the newspaper fraterni-
ty in old Mississippi can discern
political complexion beneath t h e
eperdermiS of nearly every incident
connective with the State-body. Bro
Mckee of the Biloxi Review explains
the scabbing over of the McNair ul-
Ger by such a line of reasoning, hear
him:
''Some one has said that, all
things come to him who waits, or
words to that effect. Another trite,
If crude suggestion, is that 1T all
comes out in the washing. These
are recalled in story of explanation
of the course pursued in recent no
torious affair, which is going the
rounds of the State Capital 1t will
be remembered that the country was
shocked by the doings of a certain
State official, and that so offensive
was the conduct Of this official that
the Senate, then in session, felt call
ed upon to take cognizance of the af-
far and resolution was adopted call
ing for an ivestigation. It cannot
be forgotten the rocky road that this
had to travel, the packed committee
by the presiding officer of the Sen
ate, only those opposing the investi-
cation and the present administra-
tion heing placed upon said committee
and the very summary SUPPRESSION of
the affair. That there was method
in this madness is apparent, and the
cry of politics so free with a certain
class Of malc0ntents in connection
with transactions the legislature.
shows the very center of this kind of
thing was with them. There is to
be the wagging ears of the lily con-
cealed ass in the skin Of the monarch
of the forest, in this whine of politics,
the cloven foot in the sensational eff
forts of this coterier to prevent an
investigation, the fear of giving
prominence to sobriety in o fiji e
which might have some effect upon
The senatorial race OF next year. It
is a well known fact that Governor
Vardaman in sentiment and practice
stands for sober officials and to have
allowed this investigation to have
gone on and the measuer giving the
executive power TO suspend drunken
officials to become law would have
given significant conspicuousness to
this trait of the Governors character
which meant discontinue and defeat
to bis enemies, and that was not to
be tolerated. Yes, there was politics
in the legislature but principally with
those quick to charge it to every move
which meant for the bctterment of
the public service, the protection Of
the welfare Of the people and the ele
walton Of official conduct from the
cesspool OF drunkeaess and debanch-
cry to a proper dignity of right.
The indications are clear that these
hive over reached themselves.

Select the Brush with Care, Consult
a Dentist Whenever Certain
Symptoms Appear.

So many people show little discrim-
nation in the choice of tooth brushes.
1t is equally wrong to have them too
soft or too hard. This ought to be as
certainable by the touch, and they
should not be used for any length of
time, but at once discarded. Cheap
brushes with which the market is now
flooded are an abomination, for the
hairs are sure to come out and lodge
between the teeth, causing much dis
comfort, and, moreover, the bristles
are often secured in such a way with
wire that it becomes dislodged, and
pricks the gums. Teeth should always
be closely watched, and if the gums
recede or any decay is perceived, re-
course should be had at once to a
dentist, for in dentistry a stitch in
time does not save nine but ninety.
Once let decay get any deep hold little
can be done, but it is easy to arrest 1t
at the beginning.
Parents cannot be too careful in in
stilling into their children early the
necessity of care and attention to the
teeth. 1t seems quite a weakness in
the young to shirk tooth cleaning, and,
moreover, mothers should watch the

Advice About Teeth.

growth of the second teeth, that there
is no overcrowding. In early youth
many defects can be cured by proper
treatment. Teeth that are growing far
apart can be brought together easily;
it would be a far more difficult matter
later IN when the gums are harder
and the teeth have attained their full
growth, but care should begin before
the first teeth have been exchanged.
1t indicates something wrong if they
decay, and it is a state of things that
would be likely to repeat itself.
The writer remembers how as a
child an old nurse who had been in
the same post for two generations
took infinite pains to teach her charges
exactly how they should clean their
teeth. She always said that pastes
and liquid dentifrices were all very
well in their way, but that powder
should be used once a week at least,
and that there was a great art in
using a proper brush, which should be
small and soft, and not too big for
the mouth. 1t should be not only
passed from one side to the other, but
up and down, and great care taken
to clean the back teeth as well as the
front; finally 1t was essential to wash
out the mouth with water, to which
a few drops Of fragrant dentifrice
liquid should be added.

QUIET AGAIN AT CANANEA
Eight of the RingIcnders Shot BY
Rura1es, Who Die Shouting
Away With Mexico"

Naco, Ariz.-Renewed trouble broke
out at Cananea Sunday night
between the striking Mexicans of Col.
w. G. Greene's mines and the ruraIes
under Col. Kosterlitsky. Five rioters
we're killed and Is injured. One of the
rurales was shot, but not seriously
injured.
The fight was resumed shortly be-
fore the arrival of 200 Mexican SOL
diers from Hermosillo.
All of the American women of the
town and many women of the higher
class of MeXicans are CHARTERED in the
home of Col. Greene, which is under a
heavy guard.
Eight leaders of the Cananea rioters
were lined up in front of a stone wall
a short distance over the hills from
Ronquillo and killed by a volley from
the rifles Of the rurales under the com
mand of Kosterlitsky, who, it is re.
ported, cried out, as the shots were
fired: "Vive lie Mexico, so perish all
traitors"
Without fear the doomed men re
piled as one man: ITO hi with the
government. Away with Mexico"
