MUST COFER UNUSED WELLS.
Accident to NeEFess Reveals Violation
 ms


 of Law.
 The accident by which Annie Tender son, an aged negress, who fell into a day night, sustained possibly fatal in- iuries, reveals the fact that in the re- cords of the Sanitary Department there are the names of more than fifty per- sons who have failed to meet the re- qulrements of the law which dictates that disused wells shal be either flied or covered with brick.
 D. w. Crossland. chief clerk of the department, pointed out tine fact yes terday Mir. Crosslands little list. as if is said in the comic opera, contains many prominent persons names, and if they have not obeyed the mandates of the statuteswhen the time allowed them to do so expires, they will be haled in- to court and be compelled to show cause why they should not suher the penalty for their delinquencies.
 The owners of the properties on which are situated these wells whlch are not now used are allowed thirty days within which they may either hl' the wells with dirt or orther material or arch them with brick. Failure to provide the one or the other of these preventives of injury renders the delln- uuent liable to fine. There are only Q few days remaining for the owners or open wells not used to meet the re- auirements of the law.

Grand Rapids, Michigan, it being a
native product of that section. It is
procured by distillation from the
crude Of the maple tree, Just as we
get the manufactured turpentine

crude. BY following Mr.. Blodgett S
suggestion to boil broken bits of il

vent burning, we concocted one Of

McNair'S Resignation Asked.
Railroad Commissioned Gets
Violently Drunk and Runs
Arnuck in the State
Capital.

A Special to the Mobile Daily Reg
lister dated from Jackson, Mississippi,
April II, contains the following in
telligence:
the resolution calling for the
resignation of Hon. Steve McNair,
president of the railroad commission
and member of the board of control
of the state penitentiary, was offered
in the senate, as intimated yester-
day. Senator Moore, of Bolivar was
the ofercr
1t recites the fact that Mr.. McNair
was on the Rankin county convict
farm last Sunday drunk, and chat he
there engaged in a brawl with Ser
giant Rainey. It states further that
On his return to town he went to the
capitol and raised a great disturb
ance, cursing and swearing and using
the vilest of language in the hearing
of several ladies who were at work on
the code, that he broke up his Office
furniture, defaced the walls OF the
building and raised cain generally
Senator Moore and others spoke in
favor of the adoption of the resolu-
ton, and others took the position
that the senator had better let the
law take its course as the courts have
the right and the authority to deal
with such cases.
After being discussed two hours OF
more and providing the sensation OF
the entire session, the resolution
was referred to a special committee
of three for investigation
The above press despatch goes to
prove that the HERALD's WHAT
WAS IT. Editorial of several week S
back date, in which the conduct OF
Mr. McNair was brought into review,
was both timely and eminently cor
rect. We had the holiness to speak
out against his drunkenness then as a
public official of so high a rank, and
gave it as our opinion that he shonld
be impeachad for malfeasance of Of
fee. It seems that just such dis
position or one amounting to nearly
the same thing now awaits him. We
are not rejoicing over his downfall,
but simply note with qualification
that the Powers That Be at Jack
son" have been brought to an
active cognizance of the weak broth
er.
He should be relegated to private
life, where his love of the cup will
not endanger the interests of the peo-
pie of this Commonwealth. Being in
his district we do not hesitate to
speak our mind. as we believe just
such candid expressions as these from
the press will help rid and keep the
oHicialdom of our State rid of such
incubuses.

Lucedale Plaindealer:- Editor
Faux, the good genius that guides
the GREENE COUNTY HERALD at
Leakesville so successfully through
the buffetting and dangerous waves
of the stormy sea OF rural journal
ism, had the following to say Of his
town in last weeks issue of his pa
per, which goes to show that the
good people at the county seat have
at last cotton on the Car of Progress
and are occupying a prominent seat
thereon. This is the 'Jubilate Dec
our good brother sang in his paper: .
The shrill screams Of whistles from
almost every direction of the needle
point, the wf1irring hum of machine
ny wheels, the peculiar singing of
the saws rushing through the timber,
the rafting and din of pipes about
she artesian well work, the putting
and snOrtlng OF locomotives and
grooming of the cars being pushed in
and out on the siding, The popping
of whips over the numerous OK teams
which daily come to town bearing
away their heavy freights, the clat-
ter of horses hoofs and whirl of bug
gy and wagon wlie els on our high
ways, the thronging stream Of guests
which pulsate in and out Of the hotel
corridors, and tie rush and dash Of
the clerks in the various business
enporiums of our city are some OF
the evidences of the commercial ac-
tivity, which are now charactering
Leakesville and vicinage.
Good for LeakesviIle! For al
the world is it like Lucedale in the
characteristics OF active activity and
progressive progressiycness. "

account of the tremendous prosper
