The state reunion OF the United
Confederate Veterans at Meridian in
1907 will always be regarded as red
letter day by those who were fortu-
nate enough to attend. The city well
coined the old men with open arms,
open homes and open hearts No ex-
.pense was spared, no labor be-
grudged that would eenduce to the
comfort of the veterans. The speeches
in the main were all good. the SEES
sions harmonious, and a fine spirit of
heart comradeship was apparent
everywhere among theicld comrades.
= The better part of two days was
occupied in the transaction of bust
ness. Numerous enterprises dear to
the hearts of the veterans were dis
cussed, and a movement was inau-
gurated looking to securing state and
county aid in the erection of mon
ument to the Confederate women Of
Mississippi. Steps were also taken
to bring out new edition of THE
Rise and Fall of the Confederate
States" by Jefferson Davis
The election for officers of the d.
vision for the ensuing year resulted in
the reelection of Robert Lowry, com
mander; w. A. Montgomery, COM
mander of first or central brigade, and
Geo. w. Helm, commander of third or
northern brigade. AS commander OF
the second or southern brigade, Chas
Humphreys, of Crystal Springs, was
chosen.
| Greenville, Mississippi, was selected
as place of meeting in 1908, that
ambitious little city proposing to dc
as much for the reunion as any Other
place had ever DONE If it equals Me
ridian it will have to get on hustle
and keep it up till next meeting time.

TO GIVE BIG DINNER

GREAT DINNER TO THE GOVERNOR
June 9th, is Selected as Date of

dredS Will Assemble at
the Feast.
GREAT DINNER TO THE GOVERNOR

The dinner VIII ch it is proposed by
his friends to give in honor of Gov.
Terrell just prior to his retirement from
the executive office has outgrOwn
already its original proportions, until
some question has been raised as to
finding a dining hall of sufficient size
in which to give it.
1t was originally contemplated that
there should be served 100 plates, but
as the plans became known, others in
various sections of the state insisted on
taking part until there were more than
25O names on the list.
Now the final limit has been fixed at
800, even with prospect that this may
have to be exceeded.
The suggestion came from a number
of Gov. Terrell's well-known friends
that it would be a gracious act to
tender him a banquet on Thursday,
June 6, which is his 10th birthday
anniversary and also the anniversary
of his nomination for Governor five
years ago.
The dinner will be given probably
either at the Kimball House or the
Piedmont Hotel, to be decided in the
course of the next week. and it is an
nounced that it is positively of no
political significance"

SOUNDS LIKE A SUMTER AFFAIR,

Wilmington, May 29,-'For Gods
sake stop, you're killing me; OH spare
me, spare me!'' Down on his knees at
the foot of the whipping post, Adam
Ward, 10 years of age thus frantically
appealed to the warden as cat-o-nine
tails frightfully cut welts on his naked
back.
One hand which he had torn free ex-
tended frantically towards the warden
who welded the whip. The whipping
scene was before two hundred spec
tators and pathetic in the extreme.
Warden Meserve answered.: 81 am
not doing this of my own free will,
but the law must be carried out. ~
Forty times the terrible lash fell on
Wards shoulders. This with one year
in prison is the punishment assigned
for highway robbery.
Ward was in a terrible condition
when he was cut down from the post
| Nine persons in all were whipped fol
smaller offenses.

''There was not dissenting voice to
the division proposition, said the
rector of Calvary church yesterday.
"It was felt by all that the develop

a division of the labOrs and response

care and direction of two able bishops
it's progress would be augmented.
Bishop Nelson has done an enOr-
nous amount of work in the building
up of the church throughout the State.

for as he would like to care for it. He

"When the general convention of the

bishop will then announce his choice.

to remain in Atlanta, and be known as

of the South Georgia churches for the
election of his successor as Bishop of
Georgia.

When cotton sold in Americus few
