I'm Memory of Jodie Adams.

Jodie Adams was born in KEN
per County, Miss, and died at
Elljsville, October 9th, 1907, IN
his young manhood.
He united with the Binnsvile
Presbyterian Church three years
before his death, and lived a cons
sistent Christian life. lie was
modest and unassuming, yet ev-
eryone who knew him was im-
pressed with his manly, noble,
lie. Gentleness and good will
to everybody were marked traits
OF his character. In the home,
his lie was most beautiful; he
was never known to be irritable,
to do or say an unkind thing to
anyone.
lie possessed such an enviable
spirit OF self control under all
circumstances; those who knew
him intimately say they never
saw him give way to his temper,
nor become excited when press
ence of mind was needed. Some
one heard him say, shortly before
his illness, that he had never
used an oath in his lite, adding,
that somehow it had been 10
temptation to him.
And too, his lips knew not the
wine cup; SO we may well say
that he was temperate in taste,
as well as III sleech and habits.
Many times OF late years had
he been the "Good Samaritan"
to those in need OF a helping
hand, not only outside OF their
homes, but inside, as we'll; here,
it afforded him pleasure to assist
in alleviating pain, and to make
the sick more comfortable.
His illness was OF short dura.
ton, and from the beginning he
was resi- igned to the Fathers will,
giving many beautiful express
sions of his hope and trust only
in the blood OF Jesus.
Many times has death entered
the mothers home, claiming the
husband and six children; yet it
is a sweet aud blessed thought
that they have only gone on be-
fore, and are now together, en-
joying the rest that remains for
the people OF God.
Your loved one is absent, but cannot be far
While safe In the bosom of love,
That holdpth you also, and hope as a star
Is shining SO brightly above.
Oh, faith can he patient, whatever TIE time
40 wait In the shadow and palm,
While nearer is coming the glory sublime,
70 bring you together again!"
Pastor Presbyterian Church,
Eilisville, Miss.

A Woodworking Suggestion.
Seooba, Miss, Feb. 10, 1907
,JitOr kEMpER IIERALD:

Editor kEMPER HERALD;
| think now would be a good
time to discuss the public road
question-it is up for discussion
IN the State Legislature. Mr.,
Potter, OF Kinds County. has in
troduced a bill in the Senate to
give Boards of Supervisors the
right to return to the old system
OF working the roads under over
seers. 1t appears that Kinds Co.
tailed to secure contractors to
work the roads.
| would advise our Board of
Supervisors not to be too exact
ing, but to allow contractors to
make reasonable amount of
money for their work-and we
will have no trouble in securing
contractors; but if they do not,
they will run them all out, and
we Will find ourselves in the same
predicament as Ilinds County.
Then the poor man will have
to shoulder his spade and 90 at
it, while the rich man will throw
mp his hands and say: 81 thought
at first it was a failure" "
But | will give our Board OF
Supervisors credit in this respect
tor they have managed to keep
contractors to work our roads.
Our trouble is different from
lhat of the Kinds County people,
and especially so in this, North
east, Beat; and to take the peo>
pie OF this Beat as a whole, | be-
Iieve ] can truthluIly say that
they are much better satisfied
with the contract system than
they were with the old style OF.
working the road, and | do not
think they would willingly re-
turn to the old system.
But as we are living in a pro
GresslVo age, why not discuss
something better than what we
have and give it a trial, and if
we do not like it we can return
to the contract system. My plan
is this;
For each Beat in the County
to have a small iarm of 10 acres
at some suitable point near the
centre of the Beat, have one
house suitable for the family OF
the ovcrseer to live in, tenant
houses TOR the hands, barns for
the stock, etc. Give some good
road man wages and house to
live in, free OF rent for himself
and hands, furnish him with a
road machine, wagon, four or six
good mules, and such tools us he
may need to work the road with,
let him have hands and work the
road under the supervision of the
Board of Supervisors; let him
work the county convicts, and
those delinquent in the payment
OF taxes; the overseer to keep a
strict account OF sall work done
and expenses, and to render am
itemized statement every month
to the Board of Supervisors; the
Board of Supervisors having iull
jurisdiction to approve or disap
prove at any time. and in this
way we would have direct con-
troll!
| fully believe this plan would
meet the approval Of the tax pay
ers OF this Beat.
Some may contend that we
haven't the money to buy the
small farms ard the machinery
and tools necessary to start ~
with. / think $4,000 toathe Beat
would do at first, and il we found
it too much of an eXpcrimet, lei
one Beat at time try it. be
lieye the tax payers OF Northeasi
Beat would be willing to give i
a trial.

THE LILIHA STREET
CASE AND DECISION

Castle & Wilmington Yesterday re-
ceived a cable in answer to one sent
by them for more detail as to the Lii
liha street decision. The answer was
that the point on which the case was
decided was that in the matter of
changing schedules. the executive de-
partment and not the courts deter
mined what might be permitted.
This corroborates in every particular
the view of the decision presented in
the Advertiser yesterday.
\ disposition seems apparent among
some Of the Liliha street property-own-
ers to blame the Attorney General for
the decision. He is Indirectly cen
sured for appearing in the case at all,
although it was brought IN mis- name,
and could only have been brought with
his consent. 1t was not brought until
after he had become Attorney General,
and long before he went to Washing
ton it was known by all interested that
he would appear in the case in the
supreme Court if it could be brought
10 a hearing while he was there

CHUNG YEN PERJURY
CASE NOL-PROSSED

The ease against Chung Yen was
nol-prossed in the police court yes
terday. Chung Yen is the Chinaman
who was arrested on the complaint of
Secretary of the Territory Mott-Smith
on charge of perjury in connection
with an application for a Hawaiian
birth certificate. The case was mol
pressed because of a defect in the chain
of evidence. A part of the evidence
consisted of his statements to the I'M
migrant Station officers. The notes
of this statement are in existence. but
it cannot be learned who made them,
and as the rules regarding evidence in
perjury eases are very technical this
lack broke the chain of evidence.

QUEEN To ADOPT
HER C0D-CH|LD
Things TO Follow Compromise
of Prince David Will
Contest.

There viii be no contest of the Prince
| David Kawananakoa will.
That was settled yesterday when the
| Princess Kawananakoa withdrew her
appeal in the Supreme Court from the
order of Judge Lindsay Diminishing her
contest of the viii on the ground that
she was not an heir at law. This was
followed Immediately by a withdrawal
of the contest of the will by the minor
children, Liliuokalani and Kalakaua, by
their guardian ad litem Samuel Parker.
The will was then admitted to pro-
bate by Judge De Bolt, and an order
was entered directing that letters tesla
mentarv be issued to John T. Colburn
upon his giving a bond in the sum of
$1,000, the amount to be subject TO
change as circumstances should dictate
The will was admitted to probate on
the testimony of Samuel Parker, D. F.
Howard Humphris and c. W. Ashford,
who were witnesses to the will. The
testimony of all three, but especially
of Humphris and of Ashford, was taken
in much detail, all the circumstances of
the execution of the will being de-
scribed.
An order was also entered by Judge
De Bolt appointing R. w. Shingle, Job
Bachelor and Charles A. X. Hopkins
to appraise the estate of the deceased.
The exact conditions of the com
promise which resulted in the abandon
ment of a contest of the will are not
known. The Princess will get share
of her husband s estate equal to what
her dover would have been, if there
had been no will.
Growing out of the compromise and
perhaps a factor in it, it is said that
the little son of the Prince and Prin-
cess, Kalakaua, is to be adopted by his
uncle and aunt, the Prince and Princess
and the little daughter Ii
liuOkalani is to be adopted by her
gOdmotheT, Queen Liliuokalani. The
Princess Kawananakoa in this does not
feel that she is giving up the children,
nor do those who are thus proposing
to adopt them. For they will remain
right here where they can be with her
much of the time, and at the same time
have the care and affection of those
who are near to them in blood and have
always been affectionately fond of
them. This arrangement will also give
to these children the worldly advantage
of excellent financial prospects, though
that is not a motive in the matter.

EX-WIFE COMPLAINS
Of ClTHCART'S CLERK

\ petition for an amendment of a
decree Of the Circuit Court of rather an
unusual kind was fled yesterday by
Judge \. 5. Humphreys on behalf of the
petitioner. The case'is that of Caroline
X. Silva vs. Patrick Silva, the defend
ant being a clerk in the Office of the
County Attorney. The petition alleges
that a decree of divorce was granted
TO the plaintiff from the defendant by
Judge Lindsay May % last on the
ground of extreme cruelty. The decree
gave the plaintiff alimony at the rate
OF $50 a month for the support of her
self and her four children. The custody
of the children was awarded to the wife
also, with leave to the father to visit
them at reasonable hours. 1t is alleged
the plaintiff, on August (, married Her
bert f. X. Mundon, and Silva has, it is
alleged. contributed nothing to the sup
port of the children since July 81, al
though he is in receipt of salary of
500 month from the county. At the
same time it is asserted he has been in
the habit ever since the decree of di-
vorce was granted of taking the chill
dren ont of the custody of their mother
and keeping them with him for an I'M
reasonable length of time, on some occa
sions keeping them away from their
b,,. 10, ct
While thus keeping them away from
their mother he has advised them to |
disregard her authority and has sought |
to instill into them a hatred for her, it |
is alleged.
The petition therefore asks that the
decree may be amended so that Silva
may be deprived of the right to visit
the children at all, or at least only I'M
der such conditions as the court may
prescribe; and that he may be required
to make such provision for the support
of the children as under all the circum-
stances may be deemed just and proper.
More Jurors Drawn.
The following were drawn to serve
as trial jurors in Judge Robinson s
court yesterday, the panel having be-
come reduced by a number being ex-
cused for the term, and besides those
now serving have been serving for a
month: Water Starbird, John D. Pada-
ken, f. L. Berndt, Thomas W. Carroll,
Frank j. Robello, Benjamin Sammons,
Frank B. Cook, William K Isaacs, John
w. Macdonald, Ranney Scott, Robert
Q. Jones, Wentworth NJ Buchanan,
Oliver Merseberg, Robert Bemrose.
Kimura Acquitted.
\ jury in Judge Robinson's court
yesterday found Kimura not guilty of
an assault with knife on Nagata. The
affair occurred in the Winston block,
l. The end of Nagata S
nose was sliced off till it hung only by
a shred of flesh. Good surgery. how
ever, made the nose almost as good as
new, and Nagata apparently bears no

The evidence was of an assault first
