Action has been brought against
both the Pennsylvania and Wabash
railroads for violations of the full
train crew law enacted by the legis-
1ature at its last session. The law
provides that no trains shall be run
on the steam roads of the state, no
matter how light, unless full train

that the law is unconstitutional and
test cases will be made at once and
passed upon by the supreme court.

Mr.. N. N. Christopher depart

final settlement of his business
affairs for the large amount OF
work done for one of the largest
saw mills located within the
State. This mill has a line Of
rail road for logging tor Is or 20
miles and will be extended to
Meridian finally. We under
stand that it will transport pas
sengers and freight, though this
may not be fact.
Mr.. Christopher IS a remarka'
BILE man. He has built more
cotton seed oil mills than any
other contractor, perhaps in the
South within the last two years.
These mills have been erected
in this state, Alabama, Tennes.

a very few years ago he learned
the trade of brick mason,
working long hours of rain and

in making Soc a day wages out
of which he paid his board and
clothed himself. The brick and
concrete work he thoroughly

entire satisfaction. Such men

LETTER TO PROF. HERBERT,
StahkyIIIe, Miss.

Dear Sir: Here's another prob
lem for those arithmetic and al.
zebra scholars:
If DevOe is worth $1.75 gal
Ion, and spreads a half further
than average paint, and wears
twice as long, what is average
paint worth a gallon put-on,
painters wages being $3.50 a
day and days work a gallon OF
paint.
The answer is minus S1.75 a
gallon. That is: you could afford
to paint with average paint il
somebody gives it to you and
pays half the painters wages.
Yours truly
"a FW DEvoE & Co.

Prof. S. M. Tracy who for
many years was Director of the
Experimental Station at the A.
& M. College, spent Saturday
and Sunday at the Campus OF
that institution with friends most
pleasantly. He spent a portion
of Monday in the city looking up
old friends and acquaintances
who were real glad to meet him.
He removed from here to Biloxi
where he has ever since resided.
He is still connected with q. s.
governmental service and travels
from Florida to California. He
departed for his home Monday
evening with the best wishes OF
old friends and the community.
The Prof. seems to grow young
er instead of older.

but brave and true men can cor.
rect it.
