Major MlIIsaps Back in the Harness.

The return Of Major r. w.
Millsaps to active business life as
vIce-president Of the Capital Ma
tional Bank is an event Of more
than ordinary interest to the fnan-
cial world, especially III Missis-
sippi, where he is so well and
favorably known, being recogniz-
ed as perhaps the foremost finan-
cier Of the commonwealth.
With the retirement of Mr.. w.
M Anderson as vice president
and cashier, Major Millsaps has
been selected by the board of di-
rectors for the Office of vice -presi-
dent, and that be will handle the
affairs Of the Office with all his
olden sagacity and industry goes
without saying.
The bank is also fortunate in
having two splendid young fnan-
ciers as assistant cashiers, Mr..
Amos r. Johnston, who has been
with the bank for number of
years, and is one of the most
highly esteemed business men of
the community, and Mr.. w. D.
Davis, of Brookhaven, who comes
to this city with the highest refer
ences and endorsements. The
Capital National will continue the
successful career it has always en-
joyed, and continue to grow and
prosper with the steady develop
ment of jackson. Jackson Eve

Religious Revival at Nhitworth.

Mr.. Editor: 1t was my good
fortune last week to conduct re-
vival meeting for the students
and faculty Of Whitworth College.
Il was meeting remarkable for
power, and the total absence Of
excitement. A large number of
students were converted, and, with
very few exceptions, all conse-
Grated themselves anew to the SER
vice of God. Twenty young
ladies applied for membership in
the different churches.
The personnel of the student
body is very fine. It is charac-
terized by exemplary department,
studiousness, and a deep religious
feryor. Amoug the students are
number of active Christian
workers. The head and heart of
a young lady are in safe hands in
this institution.

An ENCOURAGING Report from Pike.

The Magnolia News has the fol-
lowing to say about the decrease
of crime in Pike county:
Crime is not SO rampant in
Pike county as it was, perhaps.
But lay not the fattering unctlon
to your soul that we have driven
it forth, as st. Patrick drove the
snakes from Ireland. Several
matters of the utmost Importance
still demand attention. The SUI
pervisors should continue the
good work of selecting the best
citizens to serve as jurors. And
the people ought never to lose
sight of the fact that vigilant
criminal sheriff like the present
incumbent is a decided factor in
the equation. Drop back to in
different methods of selecting ju-
rors and trailing criminals and
you return to chaos again. If the
people, however, would secure
and hold the upper hand in the
laws enforced, they must begin
the work in their homes. Re-
spect for law and order is first
cousinsto q lively interest in edu-
cation. z
Good juries and a faithful sher-
if not in league or sympathy with
criminals are a terror to evil doers
and can correct the worst criminal
coEaitzbHs. Pixies sheriff has no
superior in the State, and if the
Board of Supervisors, the juries
and other good citizens down
there will give him their active
cooperation, the improvement
noted by the News will continue.

Last Saturdays Teachers Meeting at
Union.


The teachers meeting at Union
last Saturday was quite an enioya-
BILE and profitable occasion to
those who attended. As num-
ber Of the teachers Of this division
of district No. 3 were absent, the
published program was changed
lin some particulars to meet the
exigencies of the occasion.
Prof. G. I. Mckee and about
so or 80 pupils Of various grades,
made a fine array for the Union
school. The first exercises were
readings in the primary grades,
followed by recitations for the se-
lection Of two representatives Of
the school to enter the district
contest later. For this honor
there were is contestants, 3sboys
and 13 girls. The judges ap-
pointed to pass on the merits Of
the recitations gave the decision
in favor of Mr.. George Ritchie
and Miss Eva Boyt.
The meeting was gracefully
presided over by Miss Victoria
Hill, who, as principal of the
Pleasant Hill school, is SAID to
have impaired new and sweeter
meaning to "Dogwood's" syno-
nym. Devotional exercises we're
conducted by Mr.. j. M. Boyt
and the welcome address was
delivered by Mr.. j. j. Mar
tin. Mr.. Martins address,
which was spoken with unassum-
ed cordiality, made every visitor
feel at home,. Mr.. 2. G. Hodges
read an interesting and instruc-
tive paper on ''What Education
Will Do for U.s. and pointed out.
some apt and impressive examples.
Editor w. H. Weathersby, of
the South Mississippian, was on
the program, and responded with
an excellent address, in which he
urged the Importance of Missis-
sippians developing their own
native resources, along both edu-
cational and material lines, at the
same time uttering a timely warn
ing against the spirit of CONNER
cialism and greed for wealth
which, if given free rein, dwarfs
or destroys the moral and relig-
ious character of a people, on
which must rest all abiding pros
perity and true greatness. The
editor of The Leader, who was a.
late arrival and hoped he had
escaped being observed in the
audience, was called on. after Mr..
Weathersby's speech, and deliver
ed few impromptu remarks.
A bountiful dinner was spread
on the ground at the close of the
program by the ladies of Union
and enjoyed with zest.
There has been great progress
and development at Union during
recent years. There are large
church and school buildings. both
comparatively new, and the edu-
cational and religious spirit among
the people is fine. On the walls
of the school room there were
many interesting exhibits of the
work of the pupils. Rev. r. j.
Boone, Of Brookhayen, is pastor
of the church, and Prof. G. 7.
Mckee principal of the school.
Both appear to be the right men
in the right place and are very
popular.

A Peculiar "Chain Letter. :

The following letter is being
circulated in Brookhaven among
the ladies of some of our well
known families.
The letter speaks for itself. It
is superduous to say that it does
not represent the intelligent
Christian sentiment Of Brookha-
ven. 1t reads, verbatim ct litera-
tim, as follows:
THE PRAYER.
o Lord Jesus Christ, we i'm
plore you @ Eternal God, have
mercy on us and all mankind pu-
rify us from all sins by your pre-
cious blood and take us to be with
you eternally Amen 0 Eternal
Holiness have mercy on all men.
Pardon our offenses and deliver
us from all trials through your
precious blood, Amen. This
prayer has been sent from the
Bishop of-a word left out rec
ommending it to be sent to nine
persons. She who will not say
this prayer will be afflicted with
great misfortune. Any person
who pays no attention will meet
with a bad accident.
She who prays this prayer for
nine (9) days and distributes it to
nine persons stating the day re-
ceived and sending only one each
day will have great JOY after
nine days. At Jerusalem a voice
was heard to say, ''She who says
this prayer will be delivered from
all calamity
Received here on 7th of March
II have found out the word left
out is Gamanis. The Bishop Of
Gamanis is the way it should
read.
Superstition, ignorance and
stronglyimplied threats, bound
together by a cotton cord Of mis-
taken religious zeal, are portray
ed wildly in the above. There is
law against the latter, and the
promulgators of such propagan-
da might do we'll to respect
authority and to remember that
the day of "sooth-saying' and
prophecy are all past and are even
now being fulfilled, according to
the Scriptures.
"Be not carried about with div
ers and strange doctrines; for it is
a good thing that the heart be
established with grace. = There
is not much grace" displayed in
the letter published above.
Every member, save one, of
the Embroidery Club, was present
at the meeting yesterday after
noon with Mrs. E. NJ. Bee, and
that one was unavoidably absent.
The guests Of honor we're Mrs.
VIM. Anderson, Of Jackson, Mrs.

sons, Miss Dele Storm. Mrs.
Bees inviting dining room was

hour spent over an elegant lunch

pitality of Mrs. Bees home is ele-
CANT on account of the handsome

the desire always to give the
greatest pleasure possible to
quests.
