The dope artist of The Dispatch Is
in receipt of a communication from
aphorism, HE who knocks, be he
ever so honest, must suggest a rem
edy, or he soon descends from the
heights of knocker to the level or
a common growler," and suggests
that the quotation is applicable to
the Columbus baseball team. His
position, however, does not seem TO
be we'll taken. The people of Colum-
bus have been very liberal in their
patronage, and with perhaps a very
few exceptions have been extremely
Ioyal to the team. There is no city
in the Cotton States League whose
people take more interest in baseball
than is manifested by the people OF
Columbus, and the local directors are
very much gratified with the outlook.
The University Celebrates.
| University, Miss, May 16th.-The
recent victory of Mississippi over A
and M. was the cause of a number of
celebrations on the campus. The
principal one and the most unique
was that celebrating the game won
at Columbus, giving the series to
'.Ole Miss
When the telegram announcing the
victory at Columbus was received the
students who remained at home col
lected for a jollifcation. There were
not many more than enough TO con
stitute a respectable corporals guard,
so they couldn't make much fuss, and
decided to express their sentiments
by building nice grave mound to
remember the A. and NJ. by.
Willing hands set to work, and
after hard work a very respectable
mound was raised in front OF the
lyceum, the most conspicuous place
on the campus A large stone was
secured from the new science build
ing. which served as a headstone, and
on which were painted, "A and M,
Nav 10. 1907 to 0, to o." and
a football, baseball and bat. Then
: the grave was covered with ever
green's and flowers, and draped in
: red and white "A. and Ms colors) .
Having finished its work the boys
| chose speakers IOf lHe luhel di OiA
the following day.
2 Saturday afternoon, at the tolling
of the chapel bell, the students gath
! cred for the ceremony. The eXer-
2 cises were begun with song, "A
: and NJ. is Dead" which was sung to
r the tune of Nearer, My God, to
Thee" This was followed by the
funeral service, which was read by
; l.. d. Reed, of Yazoo City. Then j
0 B. Webb read a poem which he had
/ written the night before. After this
| came the feature of the occasion, the
0 funeral Grafton by A. B. Schauber
0 Then the pail bearers removed A. anc
O Ms colors and the crowd dispersed
q This service was largely attended b,
O the students, goods, professors ant
O their wives, with few visitors.
o After hearing Of the victory OF
Saturday, the freshmen having re
: turned from Columbus, organized tn
usual tin pan brigade and built boz
fire. Here are memorial verses com
posed by J. B. Webb in Taylor hal
Immediately after the interment:
Go ring again the chapel bell
Toll, toll the tones away;
Sing out our paean brave and well,
For dead lies A. & NJ. today
Quite dead, the papers say.
Go ring again the chapel bell,
In slow and measured tone;
Ring soft the requiem, soft and vel
Sing, sing, we sing alone;
For the dead the live bemoan.
