MISSISSIPPI NEWS
Tried and Justified.

The Meridian Star of Oct. makes
'ne following complimentary editorial
reference to Gulfport as regards the
recent disastrous coast storm: - a. -
Ihe one gratifying incident that
shlnes out in relief against the dark
background of loss and disaster from
Tue equlnoetial storm that visited the
gun coast last week is the test to which
misslssppi's single deep seaport was
suoJected and justified. The Star print
eo yesterday a letter from Judge J. H..
Neville showing that Gulfport's har-
DOR works had suffered nothing from
'he severest storm that had visited that
region Tor a century past, and today
we PRINT a comprehensive statement
IRON Mr.. h. Fl. Henry, Jr., secretary
Vi tne local business league, coverin g
III detail every item of damage done by
Ihe hurricane, that left the pier and
shlpplng harbor entirely unimpaired.
This was the first storm test to
which these works have been subject
cd, and how they would resist the fury
OF the wind and wave was problemati-
cal. Many doubts were entertained
and freely expressed as to the perma-
nence of the improvements and their
ABILITY to Withstand the shock of such
storms as sometimes visit the coast.
Ihe experience of last week has re-
moved all of these, and demonstrated
that the port is secure not only against
Vlsltatlons OF this character, but against
the hercest and most destructive eQui-
noctlal storms of which the coast has
had any experience"

KING OF SAFE-BREAKERS.
Marvellous DeIicacy of Hearing Pos
sessed by Milner James.

Miner James was the most artistic
safe-breaker in the business" said
LecOcq the detective. He is dead
now. He opened in his time over 700
safes without tools or gunpowder
solely by working out the combination
with his delicate and patient fingers.
1T took me a year he once said,
to learn the trick of picking cOmbina-
tions. l studied all the locks there
were and had three safes of different
makes TO practice on. The ear is the
most important factor in my method
and it must be held tight against the
safe door on line with the tumb!eTs.
When the knob of the lock is turned
slowly and one Of the tumblers reach
es the notch corresponding to the first
Number of the combination the tum
bier will fall with a little click. Care
must be taken not to diSplace this
tumbler. You keep on trying the knob
back and forth gently till each of the
tumblers drops. Then the door opens.
Hardly one man in thousand has an
ear delicate enough for this work and
to be success at it you've got to give
up tobacco and alcohol"

LITTLE THINGS AND BIG.
I tDiferentiate. Between the Essential
= and the Non-EssentiaI.

Little things are often OF great i'm.
portance. but when they are so they
are not little. The pinion Of a watch
wheel, for example, in one sense is
little, in another sense it is not so at
all; for when it is not perfectly eaj-
sjHsted, the watch is worthless for time
keeping. 1t is not size that makes q
thing little or great, but its relation to
the end for which a number of things
arc combined. If thing is essential
1t Is important. Because SO many of
the people who are always preaching
the Importance of little things fail to
non-esSential, they often make a
wretched mess of the management Of
their own and other peoples affairs.
Theoretically, IL every factor that con-
tributes to result is perfect, the re-
suit will be perfect; but practically,
for want of time, strength and oppOr-
tunity, the efficient man is compelled
to neglect some things for the sake Of
others; and, in order to do this and
yet secure the main end, he has to
discriminate between the essential and
the non-essential. The one who is
thoroughly imbued with the false doc
trine of the Importance Of little things,
spends his strength without discrim-
iGation, and usually succeeds in miss
ing the main chance.-The Watchman

HANDS RAW WITH ECZEMA.

years. At first it would break out
only in winter Then it finally came
