He said he believed that was one %
the principal causes OF the difficulties

the missionaries tried to force their
creeds upon a people who did not want
them and who are suspicious Of them.

needs are teachers Of scientific things
and economics and perhaps men well
versed in medical science. Such men
he said We're seldom found among the
missionaries sent To Asia. They come

WHISKY" COLD CURES.
Danger of Using Alcoholic Mixtures or
Coal Tar Tablets

The most dangerous thing that one
can do when affected with a cough or
cold is 10 use a medinine that contains
whisky or a tablet that is made %
some coal tar product. Putting aside
all moral objections to filling Up with
whisky. or drugs because one has 4
cold, the injurious physical effect
should be sufficient To keep one from
using these strong medicines
The most sensible as well as the
only scientific way TO treat a cough or
cold is by inhaling medication that
will Kill the germs and give relief 10
the irritated mucous membrane in the
nose. throat and lungs.
Among the few remedies that are
used in this way. HyOmei stands pre-
eminent. II is breathed through a neat
pocket inhaler that comes with every
outfit. and the first breath OF its heal
ing air relieves the irritation. and lis
continued use soon effects a thorough
cure.
The best people in Phoenix always
keep Hyomei at hand In the winter
months, and at the first symptoms OF
a cold or bronchial trouble, use the
remedy and prevent serious and last
ing illness. If you have any doubts
as to the effects Of HyOmei in curing
coughs colds and all bronchial trou-
bles. the guarantee the Larson Drug
Co. give with every outfit should con-
vince YOU Of its curative powers \
Hyomei outfit costs 81. and il il does
not give satisfaction the Larson Drug
Co. will return your money.

can be obtained for 50c. but the COM
plete outfit is usually enough 20 cure

THE COTTON STATES LEAGUE
Everything Ready for the Opening
of the Season

Jackson, Miss, April 5.-The base
ball season of the Cotton States
league opens April IL, and the man
ayers of the six teams are putting
their players through hard practice
work and getting in readiness for the
opening event.
Columbus opens with Jackson, and
big street parade, headed by the
board of trade band, is being planned.
President Stacy Compton, of the Cot
ton States league, has been invited
to come over and witness the event,
and the usual formal ceremonies will
take place at League park before the
order to "play ball" is given.
Gulfport will open at Mobile and
Vicksburg at Meridian, the three
largest towns on the circuit having
been selected for the opening games.
At the Alabama town the 1906 pennant
will be raised aloft on the opening
day as one Of the features of the cere-
monies.
A careful review of the material
gathered by the six managers war
rants the belief that the Cotton
States circuit has secured a better
standard of players than last year,
and majority of the teams are con-
siderab1y above the class d organiza-
tions.

cau for a special meeting is made,

vote OF majority of the whole

In the matter of changing the pres

decided that before any action be
taken by the board, the chief engi-
neer first obtain a report from Capt.
Hoffman, the government engineer
in charge OF this district, and find out
from him what work the government
proposes to do in the district and on
this report Of the chief engineer OF

then order a meeting, called to adver-
tise the work to be done.
The claim of Ira Magee for $50,

was allowed
Mr. L. c. Dulaney then brought
UP the claim of l. G. Collins for skiff
and Messrs. Hart & Mitchell for
difference in pay between $I.5o and
SI.25 a day for men worked by them
on the levee during recent high
water, and as agreed on by the gov
ernment engineer who employed
them.
On statement of the chief engineer
of the board, Mr.. Collins was not or
dered by him to purchase skiff, .as
the board had their on skiffs to send
out when requested, and he had made
no requisition for same. In the cases
OF Messrs. Hart & Mitchell, both
gentlemen were employed by the
government through engineer Toll
niger, and not by him. And further,
the board, through its treasurer, has
already paid the men worked by
them, $I.25 per day, when it should
have been paid by the government
He felt the board had done its full
duty in the case and these gentlemen
should look to the government for
the difference claimed.
On motion, the claim was rejected
by a vote of 4 to I, Commissioner
Fitzgerald voting nay. The follow
ing amounts for mileage and per
diem were allowed and ordered paid:

Resolutions.

Following are the resolutions that
were adopted by the city council at
an adjourned meeting held at the city
hall yesterday afternoon at o'clock:
Whereas, the city council at adj
journed meeting held yesterday,
April 4, 1907, found the city marshal,
A. c. Hebron, not guilty as charged
in the matter of drawing a deadly
weapon without cause, yet consider
ing this offense, in connection with
other similar causes of complaint, or
dered that said Hebron be reprimand-
ed and warned. Now, therefore, the
city council admonishes the marshall:
That he has no right to display
deadly weapon without absolute need
to protect himself in the discharge of
his duty
That he has no right to use violent
or abusive language either in making
an arrest or in any official capacity,
even if addressing a hardened crimi-
nal
1HC city COuiICll 1HSiSlS that
er the marshal nor any policemen on
duty shall enter any saloon for the
purpose of drinking.
The city council appreciates the
energy of the marshal in the dis
charge of his duty, but demands of
him that he conduct himself with
greater self control and discretion.
The city council, as a whole, agrees
that any violation of the instructions
here given or any indiscreet conduct
on the part Of the marshal will lead
to his immediate discharge.

the affair, Mayor Yerger. City Engi-
neer Allen, Tax Collector Ransom,
Clerk Starting. the defendant, Mar
shai Hebron and Mr. Rigney, the
person on whom the gun was said
to have been drawn The testimony
showed that the marshal did draw his
gun. but Mr.. Rigney made the state
ment that he did not believe he drew
It on him with the intention Of shoot
ing him with it. The council, after re-
ceiving all the testimony, went into
executive session and after remaining
there some twenty minutes, returned
to the council room and Mr.. Will
czinski announced that the charges
were not sustained.
Hon. Van B. Boddie then asked
to be heard by the council as spokes-
man for the investigating committee
for a few minutes The council
agreed and Mr.. Boddie made talk
of some Is minutes on the lack of
enforcement of the law against gam
bling in the city. He called the coun-
ellis attention to places that were be-
ing operated, one OF which he and
Mr.. Alexander saw men and boys en-
ter and coming out. He stated that
the committee, on their promise, ex-
pected the law to be enforced.
Mr.. Alexander followed Mr.. Bod
die and substantiated him in his
statements about gambling. While
he, with a few others on the COM
mittee, felt that all gambling, high or
low, should be suppressed, some did
not agree with them but all were a
amt for the immediate suppression
OF crap dives and similar places, and
said he was glad to know that Mayor
Yerger had ordered the marshal to
arrest anyone found gambling, and
this he thought was right, for all
should look alike, the big gambler as
we'll as the small one, the white crap
shooter as we'll as the coon. Each
is violating the law and when found
doing so, it is an officers duty to ar
rest them
Mr. Alexander then asked the
council members individually if the
evidence was furnished against places
and men, would they support the
mayor in breaking them up and ar
resting those found gambling. They
answered they would. He then
thanked the mayor and council for
their stand.
Capt. w A. Everman asked the
mayor if it was the duty Of this COM
1nittee to furnish the charges and
proof in order to break these places
and convict the men who run them
or gamble in them, and that if they
did, he was one who would not do it,

Both companies have a good busi-
