In his thanksgiving proclama-
ton President Roosevelt uses the
following:
The time of year has come
when, in accordance with the
wise custom of our forefathers,
it becomes my duty to set aside
a special day of thanksgiving and
praise to the almighty because
of the blessings we have received
and of prayer that these bles
sings may be obtained.
For the past two months mem
bers of Mr.. Roosevelt's cabinet
and other republican campaign
orators have been touring the
country telling the people that
all the blessings they are now
enjoying come direct from the
wise policy of the republican par
ty. Judging from these speech
es we can get uur daily needs
supplied only through the bene-
ficience Of the G. O. P. 1t was
clearly an oversight on the pres
ident's part to overlook this fact.

showing some uneasiness for the

rendered Presidency of Mississip
ri University

The decision of the board of
the University of Mississippi to
tender the CHARACTERISTIC to Prof.
A. A. Kincannon at the meeting
to be held is Oxford next Thurs
day in a notable victory for the
educationa! leaders of the State
who have clamored for the selec-
ton of home man to fill this
position, believing that the NAM
ing of an outsider would be equiv
alent to a declaration that our
own educational system is weak
and inefficient, and incapable
of supplying men of proper quail
ifcations and executive ability
to take charge of the higher in
stitutions of learning.
Prof. Kincannon has never
posed as a scholar of eminent
rank, but as an executive officer
it is doubtful if his superior can
be found in any state in the
Union. He has a genius for
management and administrative
work, and as the head of an ed
vocational Institution he inspires
with enthusiasm and energy ey-
cry member of the faculty by
whom he is surrounded. This
has been ahundantly shown dur
ing his term as president of the
Industrial Institute and college
where he brought order out of
chaos at a time when the faculty
was split up by factions and
every branch Of the work com
pletely demoralzed, and within
a year brought the college to a
standard where it is now recog-
nized as one Of the foremost in
stutions of the country. That
he will accomplish a similar work
for the University of Mississippi
is the belief of his friends, and
some very decided changes may
be expected when he assumes
the management. -Vicks b ur g

The question of the proprety of cer- tain popular amusements crops up periodically in a number of the churches, says the New York Post. Especially do we hear sermons of ad- vice on the subjects of cards and danc ing and the theater, delivered by cler- gymen of those denominations which have adopted rigid rules, or rules in tended to be rigid, for the guidance of their members. In strong contrast to this policy is the attitude of the bishop of Manchester. England. who, finding that many of the members of his dio- cese persist in playing golf on Sunday, instead of attending church, has de- cided that the church must go to the people. and will hold services, aitheI,On the golf links or in their immediate Vi cinity. for the benefit of the players. 4 scoffer suggests that if it is the plan; to sing short hymn after each drive" in the event of ''foozle" the hymn be sung with extraordinary vigor in order to drown the expected com ment of the disappointed player

HETEROGENEOUS. FATE
YACHT HILDEGARDE TO BECOME RIVER TRADER.
Originally Built and Owned by the 2 Prince of Wales, Now King Ed ward VII.-Story of Her Romantic Career.

How art the mighty fallen and now hath the glory of the great departed! The famous schooner yacht Hildegarde is to be dismantled and turned into a trader on the Hackensack river, New Jersey. What an ignominious and hu, initiating end to her brilliant and gay career, for she was built for the prince of Wales-he who is now King Edward VII.-and carried may a gay party of the princes friends on many merry cruise. But that was 20. 90 years ago, and years bring great and startling changes sometimes. But oh. the stories which the old Hildegarde could tell if only the old mahogany walls of her salon and staterooms were endowed with voice and memory.
 It was in 1874 that the yacht was launched at Gosport. in Hampshire, England. Her lines were laid down by one of the greatest designers in England and, Chinese teak and ma hogany were used in her construction, and to-day she is almost as sound in timber and graceful in outline as the day she was launched. She is 120 feet in length over all and 1o2 on the load

One of the striking manifestations of the times is the tendency of young men to seek opportunity in the world uf business. rather than in the profess sions, says a writer. who is inclined to he sarcastic. Fifty years ago every well to do father of six sons made one of them a preacher. one of them Il physician. one of them q lawyer, and one q politician or soldier. Only the black sheep, the harum-scarum and the unstudious were sent into counting houses and factories. To-day behold the change. The flower of America's young manhood is at work not in the hospitals or the courts, but in iron fac. tories and slaughter houses. The younger Vanderbilts are firemen and engineers. The younger Armours slay the protesting swine. The professions, beginning by being overcrowded, have become improbable. and soon they may be sadly neglected. The law does not offer such prizes as the canned goods trade or copper smelling. The ministry is not comparable. in point of profit. with frenzied finance Of the mail order business.

In the long run. says ope writer, the whole of North America will be called the United States, and it is more than likely Mexico will be absorbed by Uncle Sam before Canada. This will be brought about by railroad expansion and close inter-c communication on an almost free trade line. It is expected that more than s1O,00O,0O0 will be spent next year in extending the rail- road systems of Mexico, Narrow guage branches are to be converted into lines of standard width and new roads are to be built to meet the traffic demands of territory that has lately shown surprising development.

 If the average man were asked why he sighed. groaned or moaned he would proba bly, be at loss for reply.
 The London Lancet, however, whose columns seldom fail each week to add to the gayety of the nations, makes the cause of these peculiar manifestations os discontent perfectly clear. says a London special cable dispatch to the Chicago Inter Ocean. The Lancet says:
 There is no doubt that there are con- siderable mental comfort and relief ob- tained from series of long drawn signs during q period of sorrowful de- pression or from noisy ejaculations of the nature of groans and moans made by sufferer from such painful dis order as acute dyspepsia or violent toothache.
 ''Sobbing. signing, moaning and troaning are. as it were. sentences in I monosyllsbic cosmopolitan language.
 These sounds are really the vocal representation of certain overwrought physical or mental states consequent in general upon a longer or shorter period of inhibition of the rhythmic discharge of the respiratory center situated in the spinal bulb. The diaphragm has been fixed. the breath either volunta- riIy or involuntarily has been held or has been shallow. while breathless in irrespective attention has been paid to some absorbing pain or sorrow
 This condition is markedly present in patients suffering from melsncholis. who continually and deeply sigh. If this expression of excessive psychicsl stimulation is rapidly and vigorously performed 6 cry of anguish or Of fright may result. whereas at the other end of this series of phenomena is the feel ing If wanting to sigh well known among those who gre run down in gen. eral health.
 At times these sounds are emitted with the sole object of eiiciting the sympathy of bystzBdeTs. This is nota- bIy the case with hystericsI cTies-

So far as the immediate situation is
