TREES THAT LIVE CENTURIES
One at Least is Known to be ovei
700 Years Old.

Brazilian cocoanut palms live from
600 to 700 years. and the Arabs assert
that the date palm frequently reaches
the age of 200 to 300 years. Wallan's
oak, near Paisley. Scotland, is known
to be over 700 years old, and there
are eight olive trees on the Mount Of
Olives near Jerusalem which are
known to have been flourishing in
1893. The yews at Fountains Abbey,
Yorkshire, were old trees when in
1882 the abbey was built, and a red
wood in Mariposa Grove, Cal, is .
manifold centenarian. Boabab trees
of Africa have been computed to be
over 5000 years old, and the deciduous
cypress at Chapultepec is considered
to be of still greater age. Humboldt
said that the dracaena -draco at Orota-
va, on Teneriffe, was one of the oldest
inhabitants of the earth.

KILAuEA WORTH A VISIT.

This volcano is on the island of Ha-
wall, and the shortest possible trip
that can be made to 1t form Honolulu
covers four days. This allows only
half day at the volcano, which Is
much too short a time to study the

Central Railroad from Natchez to Hat
tiesburg will be run today.
The event is one of more THAI lass
ing Importance. marking another dis
tinct step in the advancement Of this
progressive metropolis of South Mis-
sissippi-
The Mississippi Central has been in
operation from Hattiesburg to Brook
haven for several years, but the extern
sion Of the line to Natchez makes it
a trunk line and gives us another gate
way through the Mississippi River to
the gulf
Freight rates can make or mar any

Mississippi. and the News believes
that it will soon become the largest

state.
Natchez merchants are now en-
route to this city on special train
They win stop at all of the stations
en- route to meet the local merchants
and solicit trade. Hattiesburg whole
saIers must meet this competition, and
they should begin without delay to cul

Timely Warming.

The Forrest County grand jury calls
attention to the fact that the public
school buildings of Hattiesburg are
unsafe-meaning, of course, that the
doors open to the inside and that there
is danger of serious loss of life should
fire break out while the children are
at school.
The warning is timely one.
1t emphasizes the report of the
building inspector to the city council
several weeks ago, mention of which
was made in these columns at the
time. and the News is confident that
no time will be lest in remedying the
deficiencies.
Hattiesburg ras the best public
school buildings of any in the state
but recent disasters, particularly that
at Collinwood, Ohio, a few months
ago, have emphasized the fact thai
doors to school buildings should oper
from the outsider from both sides
as the grand jury suggests.
These changes will cost little ant
the city council should see that tn,
necessary repairs are made before TIL
opening of another school year.

Ward Hugh McInnis and Angus
Farley.
The, work is being thoroughly done:
and notices are being left at every
house, unless personal service is OBJ
tanned.
OF course this does not mean that
many people are to appear and work
the streets. The payment of SO set
ties the matter for one year.
In the notices, however, it is stated
that the city will provide the neces--
sary tools, but very few negroes even
will make their payments by work in
stead of money.
