SCOOBA Miss, Dec. 26.-One COM
pany of infantry and a battery of artil-
lery arrived here this morning in COM
mand of Col. r. G. McGantz and are
patrolling the town and adjoining coun-
try, which has been so much disturbed
by race riots.
Several negroes have been reported
killed, but these rumors are not con-
firined
Gov. Vardaman has issued instruc-
tions to military officers to preserve
peace at all hazards.
Col McGantz, commanding the
troops, has wired Gov. Vardaman that
the situation is well in hand and there
is no cause for further alarm.
Everything is quiet with no indicaNs
| tions of more trouble.
! Late yesterday indefinite reports
reached this town that four negroes
had been pursued by a posse and killed
five miles east of here.
1t was also reported that the negroes
in and around the town were in state
of unrest and trouble was feared.
A telegram was sent to Gov. Varda-
man at Jackson asking that troops be
sent here from Meridian.
The governor ordered out a company
of militia and the soldiers arrived here
early IOudy.
They found, however, that no trouble
existed in Scooba and they are now
walking about the little town chatting
with citizens.
The reported killing of four negroes
yesterday was direct outgrowth of the
recent trouble at Wahalake, where a
desperate fight occurred on a Mobile &
Ohio railroad train between two ne
groes and Conductor Cooper.
One of the negroes was killed out
right and the conductor received severe
injuries.
Great excitement prevailed at Waha-
lake when it was reported the negroes
had threatened to eXterminate the white
population and burn the town.
Gov. Nardaman promptly sent the
state militia to the scene, but after re-
naming one day Col. McGantz, in COM
mand, returned to Meridian, reporting
that danger of further trouble had APP
parently passed
Citizens of Scooba say today that. no
clash with negroes is feared. The negro
population is quiet.
Advices from Wahalake this MORN
ing state that excitement there has sub
sided and business is now being carried
on as usual.

Forgotten, Man Be-
comes Desperate
Shoots Himself While in
Third Street Tunnel
Fires a Shot Into His Head and Is
Not Expected to LiVe-Many
Pedestrians Witness
the Deed

Disappointed because his friends and
relatives had failed to remember him
with either Christmas or birthday
gifts, Joseph S. Kelley, an electrical
worker, living at 52O1s Towne avenue,
attempted to commit suicide by shoot
ing himself in the head at the east
entrance of the Third street tunnel
last night
The bullet lodged in his head, and,
although he was conscious when he
was taken to the receiving hospital,
the physicians do not believe they win
be able to save his life. Yesterday was
his 25th birthday.
Kelley came to Los Angeles five
weeks ago from Chicago. He at once
obtained a position wiring cars for the
Pacific Electric. December q he quit
his position there, stating he was dis
satisfied. A letter of recommendation
was given him, in which it was stated
that he was sober and Industrious.
Forgotten by Friends
Since that date Kelley has not been
working and passed the greater por-
ton of his time around his rOominS
place. Yesterday he complained that
all his friends had forgotten him; that
it was his birthday and yet not one of
them had thought to even write him a
letter. He left the house late in the
afternoon and it is thought went to a
nearby saloon and began drinking.
When he shot himself the sidewalk
was lined with pedestrians and the
sound of the shot created consterna-
ton. Captain Kelley, H. e. Colby and
Samuel Walker were within a few
feet of him when the shot was fired.
They at once ran to his assistance and
then called the patrol.
When questioned at the hospital
Kelley stated he had a brother in
Rochester, N. Y, and sister in Buff
falo, N. Y, and also had relatives ir
| Chicago and Barberton, Ohio. He re-
fused to give any further information
about himself

On first thought 1t seems to be
rather paradoxlcal statement that the
nearer we approach to the equator the
shorter Is that intermediate stage OF
transition from day to night and from
night to day which we call twilight
This being the case, however, the pc
Rod of duration of "the dim, uncertain
light In all tropical countries Is very
short when compared with that Of
countries of high northern or southern
latitude The explanation Is this: On
the equator the suns path Is at exaci
right angles with the horizon. The last
beam Of light fades from view when
the sun Is at IS degrees below the horl
zon. This IS degree mark Is quickly
reached at the equator for reasons Civ
en- in the first sentence Of this explana
ton: The farther from the equator we
get the less become the angles which
the suns course makes with the horizon
and the longer the time required fol
him to reach the IS degree mark; hencf
the longer the period Of twilight.

know you will say just the same
thing that I said when the cucumbers
for picking came In at the rate OF
three, four or perhaps a dozen day.
what, stop work and pickle those few
paltry things each day? Never! The
game is not worth the candle" But try
this method: The work Is done little al
a time; thus 1t Is hardly appreciated
Take a stone crock, cover the bottom
with cucumbers and cover these with
one-quarter Of an inch Of coarse salt;
then put In another layer of cucumbers,
another Of salt, and so on until the Gu
cumbers are used up. On top place a
round board Just a trfie smaller than
the crock and good sized stone to
hold 1t down snugly. The next pickles
that come to the house are added to
the jar. BY the time the crock Is
full a little water is poured In II the
brine does not cover the cucumbers. A
cloth is laid over the top, the board
replaced with Its weight and the outfit
stored away until a convenient time
FOR picking comes. A few horseradlsb
leaves placed under the cloth prevent
molding, and the pickles will keep thus
for months, even for years.
When the psychological moment ar
rives you may pickle all your hoard Of
cucumbers or only part Of them, as
you wish.--Garden Magazine.

ELKS AT 1T AGAIN.

In conversation with a jolly frater OF
the B. P o. f. yesterday he spoke very
enthusiastically of the magnificent prep
arations being made at Denver for the
entertainment of the Elks of the coun-
try in July next and among other things
said:
Although the police regulations of the
city of Denver forbid any operations on
the part of the two highwaymen. known
as the tall man and the short man,
these two worthies will be in that city
next July when the Elks congregate
these. The tall man and the short man
are both Elks. They are from Hobart,
Indian Territory, and will both attend
the annual reunion OF Elks in July.
Robert l.. Schurman i, 3 feet inches
tall and weighs ll2 pounds, while his
companion. Robert Hayden, is 6 feet
inches high and weighs 1856 pounds, less
than two pounds to the inch. Both OF
these will stand a chance for receiving
substantial reward for coming to the
reunion There is a prize for the small
est man and a prize for the tallest man.
The first in the midget class gets a
beautiful elk tooth charm set with dia-
monds, and the tallest man will receive
gold watch, beautifully engraved with
the emblems of the order
THE Elks of the city Of Denver have
fund Of 100000 which they will
spend for the purpose of entertaining
the visiting Elks and costly and elabo'
rate prizes amounting to $4,000 in all
have been offered to attract great
crowd. One Of the most beautiful
prizes is a massive silver elk given by
Fred G. Shaffer, a wealthy mining man
of Colorado, for the lodge bringing the
largest attendance of ladies. 1t is eX.
pected that the attendance at this meet
ing of the reunion will be unusually
large a. the weather is delightfully."-

RADIO, and tourists flock to the state in
large numbers. The railroad rates are
very low, and everywhere I have beer
