Mr.. Rawlins said there would be
many measures to be brought up and
he believed the members should be
ready; he did not think any membe.
wanted the session to run over sixty
days. Like Mr.. Smith, he offered his
services to the committee to aid in
drafting the bills.
Mr. Smith added that the Territorial
committee seemed to have paid close
attention to the business. He believed.
however, that the bills should be drawn
In accordance with the intent of the
trainers of the platform. He said the
business of a legislator was, to a GER
tain extent, the defeat OF improper
legislation. He spoke of the law or
taxation, about which there is much
complaint. This could be remedied by
amendments. He said it would be ao
visabie to pass essential bills only and
not to go in with the idea of passing
many; rather should the members see
how few bills could be presented.
Senator Dowsett endorsed the re-
marks of Senator Smith. He said the
committee should get the bills in a
tangible shape. He explained his con-
nection with the liquor bill and said
he was willing to bear his share Of
the odium A new one should be pre-
pared and presented, but it is liable
to many changes.
Senator Lane endorsed the views of
both the Senators who had spoken be-
fore him.
Mr.. Rawlins asked for information
as to the way the appropriation OF
$4,000 for expenses of the legislature
should be disbursed. He said his i'm
preston is that the Secretary OF the
Territory is to give a bond and the
session is not to extend beyond sixty
days, that If it does the members are
not to be paid for their services dur
ing the extra session. If there is a
string on the appropriation the men,
bers should know it, and he favored
the members meeting the Secretary and
talking over the matter.
Mr.. Ballentyne said 1t occurred to
him that the Secretary would have
to give assurance that the session
would be finished in sixty days Mr..
Rawlins believed the work should be
completed in that time, for many of the
small subjects that had precipitated
wrangling in the past had been taken
away by the esta Adjustment of county
government.
Mr.. Smith voiced the same sentiments
and cited many more matters that were
formerly handled by the Legislature,
but which are now attended to by the
Federal authorities. He thought the
suggestion to confer with the Secretary
a good one and it might be well to
consult the authorities at Washington.
II the $4,000 are available without re-
strictions 1t should be the duty Of
every member to work TO keep within
the time set apart for the regular ses-

Douthitt, who had lent their assistance
during the campaign, to aid in pre-
pairing the bills. He included in the
motion the selection of w. 0. Smith as
a member of the committee. He added,
further, that there would be no trouble
to get the money necessary for the
expense entailed in employing the at
torneys.
Mr. Smith said he was willing to do
everything in his power to aid. He
mentioned the mistake of the legisla-
ture in passing the present bill. It had
done damage on this island, Kauai and
Maui, as conditions had come under
his observation. He cited specific
cases on Kauai where hardshfps were
inflicted on the families of the laborers
through the wage earners being able
to get wine at five cents a glass. The
same conditions exist here and the law
should embody the provision against
adulteration. The speaker thought
there would be very little difference Of
opinion on these points but there is al
ways more or less difficulty in framing
a law governing the sale of liquor that
cannot be evaded.
He also dwelt upon the transfer of
the control of the schools and water
partment. Both required careful con-
sideration.
Mr.. Robertson said the Central COM
mittee would be glad to be in the posi-
ton of assistant and asked that if the
members of the legislature were to
draw the bills.
Mr.. Smith said he thought the bills
should be ready early In the session
and he did not want the Democrats
be ahead.
The chair asked for opinions on other
measures to be introduced,-the liquor
bill was not the only measure.
Mr.. Ballentyne said the business of
the committee Is to draft, or recon-
mend measures in accordance with the

sion. He spoke of the expense the
Philippines had been to the United
States and how peacefully the affairs
of Hawaii had been transacted
F. w. Macfarlane spoke on the same
lines. He said he had learned from
Secretary Atkinson that he must be
satisfied that the session would termi-
nate in sixty days or he would be re-
sponsible under his bond for the $780,
600. He referred to incidents In the
sessions of the legislature during the
monarchy, showing how time was
wasted in those days.
Mr.. Hughes called upon the members
OF the legislature present to go on rec
ord as being in favor of having this
amount available for all expenses OF
the legislature.
David Kanuha gave some valuable
suggestions as to the actions Of the
members in presenting bills and added
that Senator from each county be
appointed on an appropriation commits
tee so that the framing of that bill
could be completed early In the ses-
sion.
Representative Quinn agreed with
every idea advanced by the Senators
who had preceded him.
Representative Rawlins asked II It
would be in order for the members to
meet Secretary Atkinson relative to
the $4,000, and Mr.. Smith said they
should meet him as soon as possible.
Mr.. Rawlins asked that the chair make
an appointment with that official.
Mr.. Long thought he should be COM
nunicated with at once. The informa-
ton might be had tonight. But Mr..
Rawlins thought that due form should
be observed in making the appoint-
ment
The chair suggested that the commit-
tee meet at the office of Senator Smith
Tuesday afternoon and the Senator ac-
guessed. The time was fixed for
p m. The meeting then adjourned.

L. 7. Cooper, the man who believes
that so per cent. of all i'll health OF
this generation is caused by stomach
trouble, is fast winning a national
faith in his theory. His claim is now
admitted by surprising number OF
people throughout the country, and he
is gaining new adherents every day.
While speaking of his success in a
recent interview, Mr.. Cooper said: Il
believed ten years ago that any one
who could produce o formula that
would thoroughly regulate the stom-
ach would have a fortune. When l
got hold Of this formula | knew with
i'm six months that I was right, and
that my fortune was made. | called
the medicine Cooper's New Discovery,
although 1 did not get up the formula.
/ have owned it, however, for over
three years. I have had one lawsuit
over it, which I won in the courts.
When it was settled The Cooper Medi.
cine Company became the only firm In
the world that can prepare the medi
cine. The preparation has sold like
wildfire wherever introduced. AS
have said before, it is successful sim
ply because it puts the stomach il
perfect shape, then nature does the
rest. There are any number OF com
plants never before associated witt
stomach trouble that the medicine ha'
Rlleyiated in thousands Of cases."

MRS. E. NJ. RANSOM DEAD,
Her death Occurred Last Monday Morn.
inQ,

On last Monday morning at 2
O'Clock death claimed the spirit OF
Mrs. E. NJ. Ransom, wife Of the Cir
cult Clerk CT this county ,aS its victim.
She was in her fOrtieth year. She
had been a sufferer for many weeks,
from consumption and had borne IL
all with a cheerful and ChriSt-like
meekness. To those who came to her
sick room, she always spoke cheering
words and manifested the most per-
feet confidence as to the future. ThlS
was but in keeping with her whole
life which had given evidence all along
it's pathway of righteous conception
of duty. Those who knew her best:
appreciated the quiet rectitude
Of her life.
Her funeral was conducted from
the Baptist church where both Revs.
Carothrrs of the Presbyterian church
and Bacon the pastor, paid oeautl'
ful and touching tributes to the mem.
ory of the departed She is survived
by a devoted husband, besides several
brothers and sisters and other rela-
tives to whom The Sentinel offers
coincidence. Her remains were foi'
lowed by large concourse of sorrow

THANKSGIVING IN GRENADA
All Business Houses Close-Re-
ligious Services Held.

Thanksgiving Day was a day OF
quiet and cessation from business in
Grenada. All the business houses
closed and thanksgiving and rever-
entail spirit seemed to pervade the
community. A downpOur of rain in
the forenoon served to keep many
within doors that would perhaps have
been out cunning. In the afternoon,
bird hunters were hieing out in every
direction to indulge in the paStime
of following a dog and taking them
on the wing" Union religious ser
vices were conducted CAT the PreSby-
terian church. Rev. 4. III. Williams
delivered a very appropriate sermon
and it is TO be regretted that the in
clemency of the weather deferred SO
many from attending.
Good dinners were served and many
social gatherings were had and alto
gether it was day to bind friends
and cement the ties Of kinShip an3
encourage acts of generosity.

years with my stomach. | consulted

"I was very nervous, and could
hardly sleep; I had roaring in my

THE MUSICALE MONDAY NIGHT
Miss Anna Clyde Martin Captures the
Audience.

On Monday night a most delightful
musicale was given at the opera house
by Miss Anna Clyde Martin, of Hous-
ton, Texas, assisted by Mr.. walter
May, of Memphis, and local talent.
The program was opened with a
piano number by Mrs. j. Sidney
Suarpe. Mrs. Sharpe is a thorough
musician and her Interpretation OF
"Old Black Joe" and the Nevin selec-
tion was charming and enthuSiastical-
ly received.
Miss Esther Broadstreet, one OF
Grenadas coming violiniStS, artiStl-
cally rendered two selections, accom-
panied on the piano by Miss Ward of
Grenada College.
Miss Martin, the star Of the even
ing, is the fortunate possessor or a
beautiful contralto voice which showed
to wonderful advantage in her well
chosen program. One had only to
listen to her first selection to readily
see in the voice the evidences of fine
cultivation and training. She was
formerly a pupil of Marie Greenwood

past season or two has been studying
under Madame Won Klenner, of New
York. She delighted her audience
from the first and Grenada was very
fortunate in having SO rare an oppor-
tunity to have such gifted singer.
Mr.. Walter d. May, a leading Men,
phis singer, added greatly to the
splendid evenings performance. He
has sympathetic and beautiful bass
voice and quickly sung his way into
the appreciation and understanding
Of his audience.
Miss Lawrence, of Grenada College,
who played Miss Martins accompani-
ment, needed no introduction to a
Grenada audience Her musical abll-
ity had never been more plainly EVIL
denced than in the sympathetic and
true accompaniment on this occasion.
The musicale was given for the bene-
| fit of the Methodist church and was a
splendid success in every way.

A FRAUD IS PRACTlCED
By a One.Armed Red-Headed
Man.

A few days ago one-armed red-neaded
man by the name of Long dropped into
Grenada and claimed to be connected
with the Alabama Carnival Company
as a sort Of advance advertising agent.
He at once get busy to get the buSi-
ness men of Grenada interested in an
advertising scheme, each party to be
allotted so much space on certain
number of circulars he claimed he was
going to have printed and distribute
to announce the coming Of the show.
He soon got his advertisers, had few
circulars printed, collected from his
advertisers and sought passage on the
first freight train for WinOna. Just
prior to his departure from Grenada
the proprietor and manager of the AL
ALBANIA Carnival Company landed in
Grenada and as soon as he had aScer-
tained what had been done by the red
headed man, he declared he had no
connection with his company and
averred that he would have Long ap
pretended and would prosecute him
for practicing fraud on his company.
The telephone wires soon appriSed the
chief of police in Winona that Long
was wanted in Grenada and in less
than an hours time an officer was
in Grenada with him. He was placed
in iail where he remained for a couple
of days, He returned the money he
had collected to a number OF the firms.
wherever he could he talked them in
to taking his due bill. After arrang-
ing matters with his advertisers" he
was given his liberty and soon made
his exit from the city. He claimed
that mis- hurried departure from Gre
NADIA without paying his bill to the
printer or distributing the circulars
as he had promised, was because OF
previous alteration with the mana
ger of the show which had not been
amicably arranged and that he knew
that there was not room in the town
for both without a serious difficulty.
However. subsequent events showed
this was far from the truth. He is a
pretty slick duck" and his success
here only shows how easily an outsider
can work" good business men.
