saps Library building to be erected

the liberality and philanthropy of
Major R. W. Millsaps, Of this city,
and Andrew Carnegie, the Pennsylva-
MIA steel magnate whom Bishop Gal
leway succeeded in interesting. The
building will occupy fine campus,
and will add materially to the attrac-
tiveness of the really idyllic and clas-
sic surroundings. 1t will be fitted for
at least $4,000 volumes, with mod
ern stackroom and double reading
rooms, this last feature being adopted
in view of the co-educational system

saps Board of Trustees and Faculty.
It will be almost square, the outside
dimensions being 70 by so feet, and
will have a classic front. Above the
tympanum pediment will be placed

First Assistant Postmaster General
Hitchcock, In a statement in connec-
ton with his recent announcement

Jial increase of salaries for postal en-
ployees, said the sum received will

iting the payment of higher compe1-
sation to letter carriers.

Worried Over Outlook.

Passenger officials, especially those
of Western lines, are concerned over
the spread and the increase in
strength of the agitation for 2-cent
passenger fare. There are few North
ern States east of the foothills of the
Rocky Mountains in which the rate
is more than 2 cents in which a more
or less vigorous and well-organized
effort is not being made to get it re-
duced by statute. A deluge of 2-cent
rate laws is expected with the meet
ing Of the State Legislatures this
winter, unless there is decided
change in public sentiment.
In an effort to allay the popular
demand for 2-cent rate in Pennsyl-
vania and Indiana, the Central Rail-
ways Thursday will put all their rates
east of the Indiana. Illinois line on
basis of 2 IL cents or less.
Western traffic officials maintain
that a reduction of rates below the
present level would cause passenger
to be run at loss un-
less special reduced rates and excur-
sions were greatly curtailed.

apartments in Paris for the conduct
of his love affairs. The most notori-
Gus OF these apartments was at Neuil-

wife to get the money, or borrowing

Maitre Cruppi dwelt upon a pas
sage in a letter from Nine. B. which
he declared, left no doubt that liza
son existed. This passage was:
81 never believed you capable of
making a dishonorable use of my
letters. :" Maitre Cruppi disclosed the
fact that in November, 1900, the civil
tribunal of the Seine was about to
appoint judicial trustee in the per-
son of George J. Gould for the pur-
pose of protecting the countess
against the capacity of her husband,
but being unable to appease the cred
itOrs, the case was transferred to New
York

Rumored Purchase By G.. & ST.

A report is current in railroad cir
cles, and SEEMINGLY has a good founda-
ton, that the Gulf & Ship Island road
has purchased the Drookhaven &
Pearl River branch of the Illinois
Central, running from Brookhaven to
Monticello, and that preparations are
being made for IN extension of the
line from Brookhaven to Vicksburg.
1t is known that corps Of Ship ISL
and surveyors has been in the field
for three weeks or more, and the par
ty is heading toward Vicksburg. The
report of the requirement of the
Brookhaven & Pearl River road comes
from such sources that it must be
given a full measure of credence. The
road is about thirty miles in length
and was completed less than year
ago.

Mississippi College Fund.

DR.. W. 7. Lowrey, president of
Mississippi College, one Of the larg-
est educs iional institutions in the
state, is winding up his campaign to
raise fund Of $4,000 to be used
in repairs and improvements at the
college.
DR.. Lowrey has nearly $4,000
pledged to the fluid, all in solvent
notes and securities and payable at
specified periods. This leaves only
$4,000 to be raised, and he is allowed
until the first of January to COM
plete the work. Upon its successful
consummation Mississippi College
will receive $4,000 from the Eduea-
tional Society of New York, through
which John D. Rockefeller is aiding
educational institutions, and $4,000
from Andrew Carnegie, making a to-
tai of $4,000 to be expended by
the institution in improving its IA
cilities.
Mississippi College now has 40
students enrolled, and many others
will be added to the list after the
Christmas holidays.

The Cotton Caterpillar.

Prof. W. NJ. Bamberge, special
agent of the department of agricuI-
ture, bureau of plant industry, in
charge of the field work in Misslssip-
pi, has received a letter from Prof.
Hunter, chief entomologist of the but
reau, who is now making a tour Of
Texas, covering his investigation OF
the ravages of the cotton caterpillar
in Mississippi and Louisiana. The cat
erpillar has made it's appearance at
only few points in this state, but
Prof. Hunter states that between
Shreveport and Baton Rouge he found
nearly all Of the fields stripped clean.
1t is the belief among the government
experts that in communlties-w where the
caterpillar makes its appearance this
year the Mexican boil weevil will not
appear next year, and this is some en-.
couragement.

Through their efforts to obtain la
Dor on the work of the Isthmlan Ca
nal the members of the Canal Commis-
sion have found that there is dearth
of labor in practically all parts of the
world. So great is the demand for
labor in connection with railroad
building and other improvements on
large scale that countries which for
merly have sent thousands of laborers
to this country monthly are now using
their labor at home.
Leroy Park the Agent for the Com
mission has been in Spain for some
months recruiting laborers, who have
shown themselves so well adapted to
conditions in Panama. Many hundreds
Of the men whom he has sent to the
Canal Zone are writing favorable re-
ports to their friends in Spain, and
in a short time Mr.. Park expects to
send large number of workmen.

Jackson s Depot.

The Illinois Central Railroad Com
plny has large force of hands ac-
lively engaged in the work of reno
vating and enlarging the union pas
senger station in jackson. The plans
for this work, while extensive and ag-
gregating an investment Of about
$4,000 for the new work are still
not entirely satisfactory to the busi-
ness meu and public generally. It
is undersssod however, that the new
Goodyear line will not enter the sta
ton on the terms proposed by the
Central people, and it is stated that
the Goodyear road will join with the
Alabama & Vicksburg company in
separate passenger depot on the site
of the old A. & V. passenger station
at the southern end Of State street,
which is much nearer to the business
center Of the city than the l. C. un-
ion station, and also has a car line
to any part Of the city.

CASTELLANE

INHUMAN TREATMENT

Daughter Squandered on Other
Women.

Paris.-Before a crowd which taxed
the capacity of the courtroom in the
Palace of Justice, in the old Latin
quarter, the case of the Countess de
Castellane for divorce from her hus-
band, Count Boni de Castellane be-
gan.
Count Boni's attorneys made no eff
fort for further postponement, and
with Henri Ditte, president of the
Tribunal of First Instance of the
Seine, presiding, and with two asso-
ciate justices on the bench. Maitre
Cruppi presented the plea of the coun
tess for absolute divorce and the Gus
tody of the children. This plea was
made upon documentary evidence,
and without summoning witnesses.
The great lawyer spoke for four and
a half hours, with an intermission of
only fifteen minutes. The case was ad-
journed before Maitre Cruppi's ar
gument was finished and he still SEEM
ed to have plenty Of ammunition in
the locker.

Tariff War Avertea.

The long-threatened tariff war with
Germany, it is now believed, will be
averted by the official visit of COM
mission which President Roosevelt has
appointed to take up with the Kai-
ser's Commission some of the vexa-
tious problems that have annoyed
both governments several years. The
outlook year go was very dark, but
Germany concluded not to bring the
differences to an issue and let the en-.
forcement of discriminating rates go
over for twelve months from last
April. 1t is regarded as unlikely that
there will be any more temporizing
when the twelve-month period is up,
and that, unless there are some sub
stantial concessions from this end of
the line, American exports to Germa-
ny will find themselves with the maxi
mum rates levied by that country.
The administration believes that
the way to an adjustment will be
smoothed by the Commission, head
ed by DR.. S. N. D. North, Director
of the Census Bureau, which will
leave this country early in Novem-
Der. 1t is also thought the adjust
ment would be reached without end
less trouble and difficulty involved in
the negotiating and ratifying of a
new trade treaty with Germany, or a
treaty at once arouses the
4ntagonism of the high-tariff men in
Congress, and, as the Senate is now
constituted, such a treaty is impossi-
BILE of ratification. The Commission
may find way out of the difficulty
by the route Of administrative con-
cessions. This is what is expected
of it.

To Appropriate Million.

Buffalo, N. Y.-The general mis-
sionary committee of the Methodist
Episcopal church, composed of kish-
ops and laymen from all parts of
the civilized world, met here.
One Of the most important actions
will be the appropriation of $1,Ct\4-
600 for missionary work.
The features Of the opening ses-
sion was the report of the treasurer
of the society. DR.. Homan Ealon of
New York, which showed that the
cash receipts of the missionary So
ciety for the past year just ended,
amounted to $1,695,859, an increase
over the previous year of $113,644
The disbursement of the year had left
a balance in the treasury of $40, ,4444
In addition there had been received
during the year for specially design
ated objects $374,O80.
The first public announcement of
the deliberations of the committee on
consolidation of the benevolences of
the denomination was made. The proc
lamation to the church showing the
plan for the reorganization of the
great benevolent societies was read.
The new plans go into effect January
l, and involve the separation of a
present missionary society into home
and foreign mission board. There is
to be board of foreign missions,
with headquarters at New York.
board Of home missions and church
extensions, with headquarters at Phil
