BATHING IN THE DEAD SEA.
by No Means q Pleasure, According
to One Traveller.

mo sooner has one plunged into
the water than one is whipped off
ones feet and goes bobbing helplessly
about like a wretched cork" says Rev.
Haskell Smith of bathing in the Dead
sea. In the effort to regain ones
footing and to get back to shore, ones
feet and shins are barked by the
Jagged stones and pebbles, and when
at length one does emerge from its
treacherous bosom, with the lower
limbs bleeding and torn, one becomes
aware of horrible tingling and burn
ing sensation in eyes, ears, nostrils,
mouth and almost every pore of the
skin, from the brine and bitumen
which have penetrated everywhere.
Unless great care is taken the
bather in the Dead sea is liable to an
eruption, which breaks out all over
his body, and which is commonly
known as the Dead sea rash The
best antidote to this is to hurry across
as quickly as possible to the river Jor-
dan and take a second plunge therein.
The soft and muddy waters of that
sacred but dirty stream will effectual-
ly remove the salt that has incrusted
the bOdy"

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT.

On the 9th day of May, 1907, oul
comrade, Hector Mckenzie Graham was
ordered by our Supreme Commander
from the warfare of life to the peace
eternal. He was born in Monroe county
Alabama on the End day of February
1887. He responded to his country's
call, and gladly followed the banner OF
the Confederacy, and when it was furled
he was Captain of Company E, of the
Twenty-third Alabama Infantry. A
brave soldier in war, in peace he was
a good citizen. His was a kindly and
generous nature and to no one did he
ever knowingly do wrong. He was
an active member of Featherston Camp
No. 1916, U.C C. ", and it is fitting that
this memorial should be made; there
fore be it
Resolved, That we depiere the loss
from our Camp of our Comrade and that
our sympathies be with his family in
their grief.
Resolved further, that these resolu-
tions be spread on our minutes, and a
copy be furnished the family of our
deceased Comrade.

Representative Bowers at Washington.

Washington, May 15.--Representative
E. j. Bowers called at the war depart
ment today in regard to the construction
of dredge boat for the exclusive use OF
the Mississippi coast. The last rivers
and harbors appropriation bill contained
a provision for the construction of such
a boat upon the recommendation of the
war department. The cost of the dredge
will be about two hundred thousand
dollars, the amount designated in the
blu, but its construction is permissible
rather than manatery. Mr.. Bowers
feels encouraged as result of his con-
ference with the war department officials.
He did see Gen. Mckenzie, however, as
the general is absent from the city with
the deep waterways commission.
Representative Bowers also took up
with Surgeon General Wyman of the
marine hospital corps the the question
of having ships fumigated at Pasca-
goula instead of Ship Island. The de-
paItment will look into the matter.

situation.

stands for, the Democratic party ought
to be very strong. Everywhere the peo-

"Even the President has shown the

or advocated has been popular; every
thing unpopular he has done has been

A meeting of the State Democratic
Executive Committee has been called by
Chairman Lomax to meet in the Senate
chamber of the new Capitol at high
noon on Thursday, May 80. This meet
ing will be of no especial interest, it's
work being merely to fix the dates of
the first and second primaries, and but
little latitude is allowed the committee
under the primary election law, as the
first primary must be held from the tst
to the 10th of August, both inclusive,
which gives the committee only ten
days, one of which is Sunday. The date
of the second primary is fixed positively
and definitely by tho law-three weeks
after the first one. The committee will
also prepare the official ballot or sam
pie of the official ballot, to be used in
the various counties.

SCHOOL CHILDREN Al JsRMc PARK.


Due to the open-hearted hospitality
of Mr.. F. Matthews, delightful outing
was enjoyed by teachers. pupils and
friends of the Bay ST. Louis High
School on Thursday last. Leaving the
school building at p. m. We were soon
at Spring Park, the beautiful grounds
of which had been placed at our dispo-
sal, and here, under the shade of the
friendly trees, we enjoyed our spread of
good things in general and drank the
cool sparkling water of the famous st.
Roch's Springs, which gives life and
vigor to the aged and sick and adds
energy and vitality to the well and
young.
Games were then indulged in by pu-
pills and teachers, but greater treat
was still in store for US. Mrs. E. L.
Saxon, as only Mrs. Saxon can, most
instructively, Interestingly and charm
ingly spoke on the love of nature and
the care and cultivation that should be
given to Gods countless gifts of Nature
and on the yet-to-be- e-seen glorious fu-
ture of Spring Park. Her address was
responded to in very fitting words by
Mr.. Matthews and Prof. Bell. Then
Miss Lillian Chapman stepped forth,
and, in her usual sweet and modest
manner, thanked Mrs. Saxon, in the
name of the school, for her address and
presented her with a beautiful potted
fern, the gift of Mr.. Matthews.
We shall always remember the day,
and most heartily appreciate Mr.. Mat

COMING SESSION OF LEGISLATURE.

Although it is seven months until the
next session of the Mississippi Legisla-
ture is convened, large amount of new
legislation is being mapped out for the
solons, and the indications are that it
will be very busy session.
First and foremost, the lawmak ers
will be compelled to spend considera-
BILE time correcting the numerous errors
and bungles in the now annotated code
perpetrated at the last session, many of
which are of serious character. Some
of the more important matters already
suggested for legislative action are as
follows:
Constitutional prohibition, to be pre-
ceded by a statutatory prohibition meas
ure until the constitutional amendment
can be adopted.
A child labor statute.
New legislative apportionment.
More equitable method of distributing
the common school fund.
Creation of State board of equaliza-
ton, and more equitable system of as
sessment.
Presidential suffrage for women, and
also right for women to vote in school
elections.
Training charity hospital.
Sale of old capitol and Governors s
mansion property.
Establishment of juvenile reforma-
tory.
Law authorizing fire insurance COM
panies to maintain inspection bureau.
Two cent fare on railroads.
General appropriation for public
roads.
Establishment of State armory for
the national guard.
Many other measures have been sug-
gested, but the above outlines the more
important in the list, and which will
provoke the principal fights of the ses-
sion.

THE Wo0DMEN OF THE WORLD ABANDON
BRONZE TABLETS.

Norfolk, May %. The Sovereign
Camp, Woodmen Of the World, in hien-
nial convention, today decided to aban-
don the use OF bronze tablets upon mon-
uments erected to deceased members
and to use carving only upon these
monuments. Italso changed its laws so
as to permit of the erection OF joint
monuments with inscriptions by other
orders or friends of deceased members,
providing that the 500 contributed by
the Woodmen for each monument is
by at least $10O. An amendment pro-
posing that all structural iron workers,
stone cutters and pottery workmen be
placed in the hazardous risk class, was
defeated. Members Of paid FIRE depart
ments were taken from the hazardous
class and placed In the preferred list.
