OLDEST LIVING TRIPLETS.
Two Men and Woman of Mississippi Celebrate
Sixty Eighth Natal Annivery.

Jackson, Miss, March IS Those who
are perhaps the oldest triplets in the
world celebrated their sixty-eight BIRTH
day here yesterday, but only two OF them,
the '.boys" being present.
These tripiets are Mr.. J. F. Price, a
well-known popular hotel man Of
Jackson and for the past twenty years;
his brother, Henry Price, of this city,
and Mrs. Nancy Philips of Calhoun
county. Mrs. Philips lives several miles
from the railroad and it was found i'm
possible to make the long trip to Jackson
to attend the annual reunion this year,
as has been her custom heretofore.
The brothers and sister claim TO be
and perhaps are, the oldest living triplets.
They are to all appearances good for
several years to come, being hale and
hearty and perfect specimens Of physi
cal man and womanhood. Henry Price
is a bachelor, but Frank and Mrs.
Philips have been married many years
and have grandchildren.
They were born in Cumberland county,
North Carolina, but came to Smith
county, Mississippi, Immediately after
the war, and, with their parents, settled
on farm in the piney woods belt. The
boys served through the war between
the states, and it is said they we're as
good soldiers as there were in the Con-
federate ranks.
There were several other members of
the family, boys and girls, all older than
the triplets, but all save one are dead.

HOW TO KILL YOUR TOWN.
Kick.

Kick.
Keep kicking.
And don't quit kicking.
One. pull one way and one t'other.
Go to other towns and buy your goods.
Denounce your. merchants because
they make a profit on their goods.
Knife every man that disagrees with
you on the method of increasing busi-
ness.
Make your own town out very bad
place, and stab it every chance you get.
Refuse t. unite in any scheme for the
betterment of the material interests of
the people.
Tell your merchant that you can buy
your goods a great deal cheaper in an
other town and charge him with extor-
ton.
Keep every cent you get, and don't
do anything of public nature unless
you can make something out of it di-
rectly.
When you say anything of your town,
say it in such a way that it will leave
the impression that you have no faith
in it,
Patronize outside newspapers to the
exclusion of your own, and then de-
nounce them for not being as large as
the city papers.

Much progress is being made in the
building of the Bay Lumber Company's
sawmill, and Messrs. Gex and Ulysses
express satisfaction on the results being
attained from day to day by the force of
carpenters and mechanics. The mill
building proper has been completed and
also the power house, with three boilers,
and three giant smokestacks that point
skyward many feet. The work of plac-
ing the machinery, all new and OF the
latest pattern, is being carried on. This
will be operating within comparative
short time and will be one of the largest
in this section of the country. 1t will
give employment to about 90 men, and
prove a boon to the business community
of Bay ST. Louis.

Church News From the Wolf River Town.
Programme For Easter Sunday.

Correspondence Sea Coast Echo.
On Sunday, March 10th, the services
at the Catholic church of this place were
attended by an unusually large congre-
cation, half of the number failing to
gain entrance and attending the serv-
ices without, with windows and doors
open. A good many of the number
came from miles and miles around and
made the occasion one for performing
their Easter duties, as prescribed by
the church. This large outpouring evi-
denced, to the qualification of the pas
tor, the activity of the faith of his flock.
Professor Aniseto VidarosagS: sang
for the occasion with much success, and
in the Gregorian style also rendered
several selections in most finished
manner. He is a talented vocalist and
ever willing to lend his voice and art to
the greater glory of God and the church,
and his efforts, at all timss, are appre-
ciated by the pastor and congregation.
Special thanks are also due to Mr..
Athanase Mauffray, who assists the
priest at the molly sacrifice OF the mass.
He carries out this duty most fittlngly
and is always on hand.
Sunday-Easter-an elaborate musi-
cal programme has been prepared for
the mass:
Kyrie, from the Festival mass by Rev.
r. J. Sorin.
Gloria-R. J. Sorin.
Credo-R. J. Sorin.
Alleluia easter offertory) -Lambi-
lotte.
o Filii-Gregorian.
Sanctus Agnus, from the Festival
mass, Christ the Lord is Risen-Duyal.
Sermon will be delivered in the beau
tiful French language by Mgr. Chas.
Quay.
The church will be beautifully deco
rated, and an immense crowd is expected
to attend the divine services.

LOUIS MISSISSIPPI SATURDAY.
J.w. TURNER 4 CANDIDATE.


In this issue Of The Echo will be
found the formal announcement of j.
w. Turner a. = candidate for supervisor
from Beat 3, Mr.. Turner is q resident
of Lacey, and there is no man more
prominently and better known in this
county along the Northeastern Road
than he. A representative citizen, he
is also leading business man. Identi-
fed with the timber and milling busl-
ness, and thoroughly conversant with
business methods, and a, man who has
been successful in his own private af-
fairs, it stands to reason that he will
succeed, and he is admirably qualified
to administer to the business needs of
Hancock County in the all-important
capacity of supervisor. Mr.. Turner has
time and again been chosen and made
foreman of the grand jury, discharging
this duty in most thorough manner.
He is an advocate of the public schools,
an active promoter of good roads and a
friend of all other progressive methods
and principles that rebound to the moral
and material welfare of the local COM
monwealth, and his election would also
give the county the benefit of his thor
ough and practical knowledge of finan-
ces. Since Mr.. Turner is willing to
sacrifice personal time and give the
public the benefit of his splendid busi-
ness, executive and legislative ability,
the people of Beat 8, one of the most
districts of the county, should
not hesitate, but ought to give his can
didaey their most earnest consideration
and accord him such support as would
insure his election.

A COAST PAPERS OPINION OF THE
GUBERNAToRIAL RACE.
The Conservative Ocean Springs Progress
Says Hon. Charles Scott is the Lead.

There is no question but what the
the Hon. Charles Scott is far in the
lead in the race for Governor. Next
to him we believe Hon. E. F. Noel, of
Holmes county, is the strongest.
Hon. T. n. Sisson has some scatter
ing support over the State. Hon.
jeff Truly is not setting the woods on
fire, and so far he is not very prom
inent figure in the contest. Brewer
and Thomas have o good following in
their home counties but that seems to
be the extent of their strength.

TRAGEDY IN COLUMBIA.
AT Order of Mother 12-Year-0i Boy Kills
Older Brother

Columbia, Miss, March 26.-At the
order of his mother, the f2-year- old
brother of Hiram Patterson shot and
killed Hiram Sunday night. The shoot
ing was the result of a mistaken identity,
Mrs. Patterson believing her son was a
burglar. Her delusion was caused by a
supposed prank of the young man in
coming home late and demanding admit
tance, while refusing 40 tell who he was.
It is believed that he had been drinking.
Mrs. Patterson was at home alone with
her 12-year-old boy and his sisters.
When she could not learn the identity
of the man at the doof she told the boy
to get the shotgun and shoot. The
tragedy was generally known until
today.

CHANDLER WANTS
RETTEW BOOKS
Doesn't Get Them But is As.
Sured That Statement is
Forthcoming

In Levy Court this morning County
Comptroller Chandler tried To get the
books of Horace G. Rettew. collector
of delinquent taxes OF New Castle
county so that he might ascertain the
amount Of money owed the county by
the collector.
Mr. Chandler told the court he had
ordered all the collectors OF delinquent
taxes TO return their books to him by
May 10 and that many of them had
compiled. He had made no such re-
quest of Mr.. Rettew. however. as his
books have been in the hands OF ac-
countants under the direction Of the
Levy Court for two months. Mr..
Chandler thought II about time that
they were being returned TO the court
sand demanded that he be allowed Ia
examine them that he might balance
his own books.
Messrs. Hopkins and Scott thought
Il unwise to take the books from the
special auditors az this time, as mel
had about finished their work Mr.
Hopkins remarked that he had the as
surance Of the Lew Court attornc,
that the result OF the audit would b'
made known to the court at It's mex
meeting. This statement satisfied Mr.
Chandler.

the Widening of Tenth

The Levy Court this morning op-
posed Ne widening of Tenth street
between Market and King streets.
At the last meeting OF the court Il
communication was received from tho
Street and Sewer Department asking
that the court deed TO the city n feet
Of the land on the south side of the
Court House that Tenth street might
be widened. The communication was
referred to the public building COM
mittee of the court which committee
reported this morning adversely on the
proposition, taking thes tand that the
cutting of of the lawn would mar the
ebauty Of the square The court ap-
proved the committee report and di-
rected it's secretary to so notify the
Street and Sewer Department.
1t has been the desireof the Street
and Sewer Directors to widen Tenth
street from Tatnall to King streets
Already property owners on the north
side of the street. between Market and
Orange streets. have approved Of the
plan and Il is likely that property
holders between Orange and Tatnail
streets will eventually sell their prop
critics to the city IN orderVr that the
street may be windened. The acrian
of the Levy Court. this morning. hofv-
ever, prevents the widening OF the
street to King street as was hoped.
