TAMPERINC WITH THE MAILS.

OF course one can hardly expect
Denison to get grown up all in a
minute. That is probably why some
cheerful idiots insist on putting their
cigar and cigarette butts in the mail
collection boxes. When these
sports get little more used to
city life they will know better.
Yesterday lighted cigar was found
in one of the boxes. 1t might have
set fire to valuable mail. The post
master will give reward of five
dollars for information leading TO the
arrest and conviction of any one found
stutfing the mail boxes in this man

you waiting half hour, no less. 1t
is no wonder you re mad with so much
on your mind And sometimes Ma
gets cross too. CHOW you just Sc.

noise, or III never take you to a
Carnival again. ''Johnnie get your
boots off n Martha's dress. Don't you
know better n that?" You are in great
luck if you get away from the house
without someone expressing the earn
est wish "that they never had gone
to the Old Carnival
Finally you're off, all three seats
crowded. the basket tied on behind,
and the big boys on horseback whoop-
ing down the road ahead. You have
gone just about a quarter of mile
before Ma says. Land Sakes, if
haven't forgot the cuffee.
This is the time that tries men S
souls. If you are an angel you will
say it to yourself. if not. otherwise.
Ma sends Johnny back for it. sit

there is excitement in the air as you
see the crowds converging along the

We cannot possibly tell you auy-

 Financial Timber.
 Wall Street Journal
 As result largely of rise in the level of moral sentiment, in corpor- ate business, there has been a remark able thinning out Of tall timbsr In the forest of prominent characters in this community, One. can easily count score or more Of the names of men who stood in the first rank of public attention when the Armstrong commit. tee began its work with the first pub He nearing September 6, 1905. Mean4 while there has been a vast amount of Investigation, legislation. and litiga- ton, The public attitude towards bus mess responsibilities has become more critical and the measure of public con- materially enlarged. As part of this transformation many of the older per sonages who had made careers for themselves have practically disappeafcu from the field. The change has made room for younger growths. and the end of displacement is not yet.
 To follow the analogy of the for este. when the monarchs of ancient growth Jose their footing by decay or Are blown down by storms, they leave a large place in the ttmbered district Into which tho sunlight pours it's nu- tritive powers for discrimination the younger timber where the giants of the woods have long overshadowed. This Is what has been taking place in the management or large nnanctal, con1- mercial and industrial in Q tutions. Within couple of years or an old order of things has passed away and with 1t a new era of more critical stand- ards of business integrity has begun. More light has been let in from the top. It has called for type of lead ershtp which is more responsible to the demands of the age for cleaner business methods.
 It is enough so say that this public demand will get what 1t wants. all though it may have to wait somewhere for all that it desires. Most of the tall timber has reached its growth. What Is left may still flourish. but only on condition that 1t Is adaptive enough to adjust itself to the vitaliz- ing requirements of the new moral sense which occupies the throne The failure to foresee this means gradual death at the top. the loss of grip on the roots of affairs, and the gradual dwindling of almost regal power. On the contrary, the capacity to appre- ciate the newer standards of public and business life is the guarantee of permanency and whomsoever is given the gift<of reading the signs of the times. Rarely has there been a time when more large places were opening for types of men of large possibilities In them than today.

 Her father had very little to say while in the city.
 case: W. T. Underwood, Jr.. the young bookkeeper who was arrested after the body was found, has been released on $500 bond. Dr. R. A. Thagard, who was brought into the case. made bond in the sum of $2,500. Another arrest will be made and the negro woman is being held pending an investigation into the contents of a large medicine bottle found at her place.
 Dr. Thagard denies positively that he had anything to do with the case. He stated that Underwood went to see him several days ago and told him of the girls condition and that he refused to have anything to do with the case. The young man met the negro wo- man, Ella Croft. in the hall at pr. Thagard's office and the coroner be- lieves that arrangements were made to have the girl go to her house.
 
 he was with Miss Matthews in the neigh borh ood of the negro's house and Miss Matthews took sick and he left her there, returning in a little while to find that she had died suddenly.
 Sheriff Higdon Is doing everything in his power to unravel the matter. There is a belief expressed that the young woman may have taken poison.
 When asked why she left the place after the white woman died the ne- gress said today that she became frightened. The negro woman denies having given the white woman any thing and says that very little time elapsed from the time that the man and woman came to her house and when the woman died.
 The dead woman resided In Epes and came here to take advantage of scholarship in a business college won in a newspaper contest After grad uating she accepted a position here. She was in Birmia sham about a year.
