Meridian Male College with all furni-
turc, improvements and fixtures, anC
buildings save the Wesley Hall
which was erected last Summer
burned.
The loss was about $40, 600 with
only one-fourth covered by insurance.
All the inmates escaped, with no
hurts except h few scratches and
bruises. The building saved contains
nearly all the recitation rooms, and
some bedrooms. The School is run
ming smoothly on in spite of the mis-
fortune, using a large Tabernacle
tent for taking meals in. As several
young men have attended the Col
lege from out of Greene County, we
know this will be interesting read

1t is the policy of the management
to rebuild pretty quick, and in the
meantime no break will occur in the
carrying on of the College work.

are remaining right on, securi' g

FOR DISTRICT ATTORNEY

In view of the fact that we are to
soon have a new Circuit Court Dis
trict of which Green County is to
form a part, and the additional fact
that Wayne will have no candidate
for District Attorney the News ea-

Greene, believing that no ADLER or
more deserving man could be found
for the position.
AS will be seen by an article from
the GREENE COUNTY HERALD, pub

Harrison is not without honor in his
own county, the tribute paid being
not only most eloquent but meri-
ted one.
We commend Mr.. Harrison to the
confidence of all our readers and ask
that they give him their hearty sup

use? Let's live and love and sing
and smile, and work some now and

The whipping of negro convict,

the Mansion, by Governor varda-

ton from some of the Papers of the

niticant an incident to make politi-
cal fuss about. Our opinion is in no
manner founded upon political atfili
alton, for if anything we would be
classed as out of the Governor S fol-
loving, as most strenously did we

Atlantic and spending a brief time
at home, he will make q special trip
to Australia and New Zealand.
Feeling that his countrymen will
desire to learn his experiences and
impressions, and daring to tell the

Bryan has consented TO write a series
of letters. covering the various pha-
SEES of his journey. These will not
be delayed until he has had time to
prunc and polish, but will come fresh
from the scenes of his study. They
will be timely, vital documents, and
a literary sensation In order that
his views may reach the people

nit simultaneous publication in the
leading newspapers of the United

given to few men. He knows what
the American people want to know,
and he knows, too how to look and
how to describe what he sees. There

any other writer, statesman or tray

The Philippine question, the future
Of Japan, the fate of China, the
mighty changes stirring in India, the
renewed sttention to Palestine, be-
cause of zionism, the crisis confront

to say. They will have the full series
