Many NOtableS Present.

Among the scores of notables who
are taking part in the convention
three or four stand out conspicuously
above all the rest One of these is
the venerable Bishop Futile of Mis-
souri,, the senior bishop of the church
and the presiding officer at the trien-
NAL. The most prominent represen-
tatiye of the laity is j. Pierpont
Morgan, the great New York fnan-
cier, who never fails to attend the
conventions of the church. Two noted
visitors are here frob abroad, the
Rev. DR.. A. F. w. Ingraham Bishop
of London and Right Rev. Edgar
Jacob, Bishop of St Adams.
The presence of the noted repre-
sentatiyes of the Church of England
is due primarily to the fact that the
convention begun today commemor-
ates the Booth anniversary of the
founding of the Episcopal church in
America. Most of the early religious
work in the colonies was done under
the jurisdiction of the diocese of
London and ST. Adams, so that it is
especially appropriate that the pres
ent occupants of those sees should
attend the convention.
The Bishop of London will present
Bible in behalf of the King of Eng
land to the old Bruton Church, the
first Anglican Church in America.
This Bible is a magnificent work of
art, bound in red Niger leather, with
decorative treatment of interlaced
lines fooled in gold. On the front
and back dobulures are the arms of
the King and the United States re-
sDectiyely, and on the back are the
arms of Virginia This sumptuous
Bible will rest on a lectern, symbolic

bany, N. Y, has give notice that in
the convention he will propose a
canon absolutely prohibiting the re-
marriage of divorced persons.

Remedy for Boil WeeviI.

Alexandria, La, July II.-News
of an experiment with turpentine
which has apparently driven the
boil weevil from the cotton fields
about Coushatta, La, was received
here to-day by President Paul Lisso
of the First National Bank of AL
exandria,
An oat sack is dipped in, a solu-
tion of three parts water to one of
turpentine. This sack is attached
to plow by suspending it on
pole tied to the plow handles near
the beams. The sack is then
dragged through the cotton field.
The scent of turpentine thus spread
in Coushatta has remained on the
ground for over a week without re-
newal and not a weevil or other bug
has been found. About one gallon
of turpentine was used to cover four
acres.

Value OF AgrlcuturaI Department

New York, July I4.-The
World S correspondent at Washing
ton sends this
The chiefs of the nine great bu-
reaus of the Department of Agri-
culture have compiled figures show
ing that $23I,S5o,ooa is saved an
EnuallY to the public by the Depart
ment, Of this $50, 900, 900 is cred
tied to the Weather Bureau. Ship
ping is greatly benefited by storm
warnings sent out and cities by food
warnings.
Millions of tons of coal are sent
down the Ohio aud its tributaries
on what are called pop rises. The
Weather Bureau tells the coal men
the stage of the water in all the
headwaters, so they can have their
tows ready to take advantage of
the small rises that occur in the
summer. Without timely warning
of their coming the coal men could
not get ready the great fleets of
coal barges they send down on rises
of from one to 3 feet, Without the
river-dispatched coal every city in
the Ohio and Mississippi valleys
would be, at the mercy of the rail-
roads for its coal supply, and that
means millions to places like Gin
cinnati, louisville, St. Louis, Mem
phis and New Orleans.

THE IMMIGRATION QUESTION.
Four Candidates for Governor
Hold Practically the Same
Views.

Hon. Chas. Scott has been ma
ligned for his immigration ideas
but, according to data furnished by
J. c. Walker of Shaw, Truly,
} Brewer and Sisson entertain the
} same views. He says:
Judge Truly says: I want il
distinctly understood that any man,
without regard to nationality, who
comes here to make his home with
us, who will accept our constitu-
ton, who will share our troubles
and take the benefits of our laws as
they may be administered, to all
such, whether he comes from the
sunlit shores of Italy or from the
barren steppes of coldest Russia, to
all such should be extended the
glad hand of fellowship
"Mr. Scott says: Mississippi
ans are a community of borrowers
rather than lenders. We need ad-
ditional capital in order to give us
cheaper money, to bring more cot
ton mills to the cotton fields, to
bring wood factories to Our magnif-
icent forests. But, to mind, we
need additional labor even more
than we need additional capital.
The question of immigration is one
on which I have been widely and
grossly misrepreSented, unwilling
ly by some, knowingly, intention
ally and with malice aforethought
by others. 1t is not now and nev-
er has been my intention, either in
dividually or as chief executive, if
elected, to try to force on any COM
munity any class of Immigrants. I
could not if / would, and would
not if could. ] AM, and always
have been uualterably opposed to
any undesirable class of immi-
grants. We should repel by every
means the importation of the GRIM
inals, the degeneratesy-the-f -fotman
and petsam Of Europe, but { de-
Glaze myself boldly as favoring i'm
migration of the right sort,

national issue and no matter from
what port an immigrant arrives, if
he complies with our national i'm
laws, as far as travelling
and selecting a home or location in
any part of the United States is
concerned, it is entirely with him.
"The writer has heard all the
candidates speak. and if they can
be judged fairly and impartially by
their utterances every candidate
for governor is in favor of immi-
grafton of the right sort, and so far
as Bolivar county's governor is

MISS A. p. BROOKS.

Miss A. P. Brooks, head nurse at
Mercy Hospital, is winding up her
first year and is slated to leave the
city during the present week for her
home in West Virginia. She came
here to take charge Of the Nurse
Training Department of Mercy Hos
pital, and although she has been very
sick during her stay, has made an ex-
cellent record. Her training, which
she received at the Freedmen's Hos
pital, fully prepares her for the work.
Aside from being an excellent and at
tentive nurse, her manner is said to
be most charming. She made a last
ing impression upon her many friends
who are in this city. It is rumored
that already efforts are on foot to in
duce her to return next fall. Her i'm
preston of Nashville was favorable In
every respect, yet she had little time
to mingle in society. Whether she
will return is a matter undecided a
this time.
