TIE FLYING FROG.
a Teur winged ErptIle That inhnb-
les Tropical Africn.

KS hii'th.
The curiosity Of tropical Africa is the
wonderful flying frog, first described
by Bishoff of the equatorial African
expedition, which returned to Europe
u the fall of 1891. This oddity of the
reptile family IS about the size of 4
fommon bullfrog and resemble. other
members OF the order of batrachians
In everything but its feet, each Of
which is webbed and enormously CHI
larged, SO much so as to form splendid
substitutes for true wings. The crea'
ture has five toes on each of the other
two, which makes four separate mem
branes on each OF his hind feet and
three on each fore foot, or fourteen III
oil. In his description of 1t BishoH
says, each leg terminates in sort of
fan, and with these the little reptile
paddles the air like locust or like q
partially fcdgcd bird testing its pin
Ions Tor the first time"
Although somewhat awkward in its
dight, the winged frog can dart through
The air Mt speed of aSout ten yards
per second and can keep itself going
forward at that rate for from ten to
fifteen seconds. The average distance
covered by these spurts of grasshoppcr-
like flight is from T5 to 125 yards, but
Bishoff mentions instances where tho
aying frog cleared sandy stretches 200
yards In width.

The Storm.

North Mississippi was visited
by one of the severest wind and
rain storm of the year on Satur-
day night. Winona, Maben,
Okolona, Mathison and other
towns in the central part of the
state were visited by the storm
and eight people are reported
dead from the effects of the
wind. The storm Of wind and
rain here was such as to cause
some apprehension and the more
timid were badly frightened.
East Of here we learn that there
was some damage to property
done and in Itawamba county a
child is reported killed by the
blowing down of a house. The
negro church on the east sideof
town, which has stood in an in
completed condition for some
time, was blown down. The
loss sustained will amount to but
little.
Beginning Saturday morning
the Mobile and Ohio road was
forced to abandon through trains
on account of high water along
the line south of jackson Tenn,
in Forked River bottom. Much
Of the track was under water
and in some places the track
was washed away. The South.
ern road was washed out at Mid
dleton and the trains for the
past week have been detoured
and sent to Memphis over the
Mobile and Ohio and Frisco by
Tupelo. Crops remaining in the
fields have been greatly damaged
and in some sections of the state
there is but little hope of get
ting all the cotton crop saved.

Cotton Ba9eirg

More cotton bales wrapped
with cotton has been marketed
here this season than ever be-
fore. Upon inquiry we find that
the use of cotton has been re-
stored to where it was impossible
to secure jute. The cotton wrap
ped bales present a clearly and
attractive appearance and only
for the habit of wrapping in
jute we are constrained to be-
lieve that cotton would come in
to universal use for the wrapping
of cotton bales. There is no
reason why it should not be done
and our farmers would then be
taking money out of one pocket
and putting it into the other. in
stead of taking it out of one and
sending it away to support the
jute and bagging trust. When
the round bale was making its
fight for recognition cotton was
used to wrap with, but the
round bale was forced aside
by the railroads and compress
people who saw disaster to the
compress business. The rail-
roads went into the compress
business and shut out the round
bale. The round bale is the cor
rect way ofhandling cotton. 1t
saves COMPRISING, is put up in
a neat package that is easily
handled, preserves the cotton
from exposure to the weather
and from every standpoint is
more desirable. But as the round
bale has been shelved the cotton
raiser must demand from the
mills a heavy weight goods for
wrapping his cotton and the
mills will be only too glad to
make it and furnish it at a price
that is as low as jute or any other
wrapping.

John Triplet, an Iowa man, but
for a long time aresident of Tu-

during the recent meeting Of the
Spanish War Veterans, spoke
earnestly and encouragingly Of
the growth Of his state, saying.
among other things: Though a
Northerner and a Republican, |
am proud of the newly born pros
perity of Mississippi. For many
years the state stood still, it's peo-
pie apparently lett far behind in
the procession of sister states.
But in recent days there has been
a great awakeningo of our people.
The rich resources of the coun-
try are being developed, factories
established in the towns, better
agricultural methods, and better
schools. Our present situation
IS a happy one, and the great
bulk of the people, white and
black, are contented and pros
perous.' Southern Field.

Once on a time l knew q man.
Who said it didn't pay
To advertise the goods he had
To sell or trade away.
To prove that he was off his base
And make him clearly see,
| gave him half a page of space
And let him have it free.
1t almost scared him into fits
To see himself displayed
AS 1 displayed him, but he felt
Its influence on his trade.
| kept it up, his business doomed,
1he customers swooped down
Upon his store until he had
The biggest rush in town.
One day / went around to call
And found him on the run,
With people waiting for their turn
When those ahead were done.
well, well,' l cried in great delight,
To see things boom that way,
Don't advertising pay, old man?
What have you got to say?"
/ thought he'd like my work SO much,
And think my plan so nice,
That he'd not only praise my wares.
But pay me double price.
And did he do it? Listen, please:
thought thatI'd drop dead
When suddenly he turned on me
And vigorously said:
"Take out that advertisement, quick:

A Wise Decision.

Now that Prof. A. A. Kincan.
non has declined the chancellor
ship of the State University, to
which he was elected, the trus-
tees Of that institution will soon
be compelled to have another
meeting and make a second Sc
lection. While the Clarion-Led-
ger~never doubted that Profess
sor Kincannon would have made
a success of the State University:
it thinks he did the right thing
in declining the honor and re-
naming with the institution that
he has done SO much to build up.
He has made a wonderful success
Of the Industrial Institute and
College, and naturally feels proud
of the institution and his work.
The patrons and well-wishers of
the girls college will congratu-
late Professor Kincannon on the
stand he has taken. At the same
time, this paper, and the people.
of the state generally, hope that
the trustees of the State Univer-
sity may yet be able to find a
suitable man for the chancellor
ship of that institution; and that
it may greatly prosper and hold
it's popularity with the people of
Miss.ssippi. -Clarion-Ledger.
