the First Presbyterian church of this
city. The chancel and choir was beauti
fully decorated, and some delightful music
rendered. Mr.. Sterling Harris of Birming-

fashion, these being no Promise Me" and

The wedding was a very quiet one, and
was quite a surprise to even the most
intimate friends of the young people.
The ceremony was impressively conducted
by the Rev l.. o. Dawson of the Baptist
church. The only attendant was the best
man. Mr.. Thomas Ward of this city.
Immediately after the ceremony the
young people came to town, and were
entertained at an elegant wedding sup
per at the handsome new residence OF
judge James c. Brown, a brother of the
groom. Both of these young people are
exceedingly popular. Mr.. Brown is the
chief clerk in the probate office and
quite prominently connected with several
business firms of the city. Miss Ham

Penitentiary Trustees Decide

LIVELY TIMES EXPECTED
State Revenue Agent Writ Adams Has
Filed Suit Against Water and
Light Company for Thous-
ands of Dollars,

Jackson Miss, December 31.-(SpecialJ
The penitentiary board of trustees had
surprise party this afternoon and elected
the following officers for the ensuing
year
Secretary, W. j. Brown; assistant sec
rotary, Mrs. o. NJ Spickard of jackson;
travelling sergeant, Fox Simpson of Gren-
ada; chaplain, Rev. J. f. Gray, Mead

gist, Oakley hospital, Stanley r. Byrd;
physician Oakley hospital DR.. L. b.
Neal; steward oakley hospital, H. NJ.
Buckley, Wesson; physician Rankin
farm, DIR. p. Farley; physician, Belmont
farm, DIR. Henry Christmas
The trustees recommended the following
negroes for pardon on account of meri-
torious conduct: Lee Bradford Pamela
county, murder. for life; Lizzie Thomas,
Lincoln county, murder, for life.
Those elections will doubtless paralvze
the new board of trustees who supposed
they were to elect the officers. However,
the term of the present incumbents was
for one year, and the one year was out.
The newly elected trustees who go into
office January 20 will doubtless demand
their right to appoint new officers. and
there will be a lively session with in
functions and custer proceedings galore.
Big Suit Filed.
State Revenue Agent Writ Adams filed
suit tonight against the Light Heat and
Water company of Jackson. which today
sold out to the city and passed the deeds
to the mayor. for back taxes for %
years. or ever since the plant was in
stalled. The company has been assessed
all these years at 5000, and sells out for
$4,000. The revenue agent wants the
difference for the state, county and town,
which will amount to many thousands
of dollars. This information will create
a genuine sensation in jackson tomorrow
when made known.

OF course, it is the special function of
this department to enforce the law, pre-
serve order, detect and suppress crime.
but I wish to impress upon you the crying
demand of the hour to eliminate the ''pis-

on our streets. 1t has been said that
human life is the cheapest thing in JEFF

of this charge be established by any lack

Does not your Bank adviser suggest that
while 1908 will be good trading year, it will
be well enough to keep close to shore, buying
often and nearer home?
Have you ever looked into the RED SEAL
SYSTEM?-here are few of its strong points:
Cut down the number of styles about one
third
Consolidate on RED SEAL Shoes, and buy
the selling styles in cases.
Every Monday morning send us mail or
der for the sizes you are short and get them in
time for Saturdays trade.
We carry average stock of nearly half
million, and complete today in first ship
ment 80 per cent of all orders
You get the sizes you want when you want
them. 1t takes lot Of speculative long dis
lance advantages to offset the profits you don't
make on the business that you miss.
Mail Orders reaching us in the morning
before 930 get in the depot the same day.
Our Gravity Elevator never gets out of or
der. It's a circular chute, that brings a case
from the top floor to the Packing Room in six
seconds special balcony in our Shipping
Room is reserved for mail ORDERS which always
have right of way.
Our voluntary mail and house orders have
averaged thousand dollars day for sew
eral years. We consider this the best test of
confidence, and pride ourselves that so far as we
know the trust has ever been sustained Any
thing sent out by on mail order, that is
not in every way satisfactory can be returned

THE SOUTH'S NEW INDUSTRY.
The next important industrial development
in the south will be the manufacture of its
thirty millions annually sent out of the
south to upbud other sections of the country
The next time you are in Atlanta we will
be pleased to show you start we have made
in that direction. We have demonstrated the
aptitude of native help to become skilled
artisans with the opportunity to earn double the
pay of the ordinary mill hand
The shoes we are turning out are well re-
ceved by critical shoe stores of the leading cities
of the south, who are giving us the best of all
endorsements-fre frequently duplicate orders
Our customers are invited to visit the fac
tory and see what are putting into RED SEAL
SHOES This, in measured may explain why
they popular with the people By concen-
tralng on a few lines are making them draw
ing cards that bring the best folks in each terri
tory to become regular patrons of RED SEAL
Shoe Stores.
A FREIGHT SAVING
Figure Atlanta rates against any other
manufacturing market, then consider the time
saved delivery. It's the little savings that
sometimes turn the scale on a close balance
sheet
If you haven't one of ouur 1908 catalogs,
say so on postal Up-to-date Tans now in
stock.
We believe the folks in the south are going
to wear Southern Made Shoes the dealer who
has them sale will find it easy sailing.

lew years for the chief of police to re-
eeive and carry out orders issued BY
the mayor of this city. This Will no
longer be tolerated. The proper chan
hel Tor all instructions to this depart
ment is through this commission If
the mayor desires any special or extra
ordinary orders given. he may make
known to this commission his desires
and Il reasonable and proper, the
same will be given.
The very object and purpose of es-
taol1shing the police commission was
TO separate the police department from
the city government and to take it out
of politics. 1t is doubtful if ther is
any record of more outrageous per-
torrance than was witnessed in the
council chamber of this city a short
time since. The mayor seated himself
in the presiding chair and in the
usurped capacity of chairman of the po-
lice commission, ordered the chief of
police not to allow himself (the mayor
to be disturbed in his capacity as mayor
While presiding over the council. and
actually ordered the arrest and eXpul-
sion from the chamber of a member of
the counmil, and the one entitled to
the chair occupied by him. The Offices
of chief of police was never intended
to be used in furtherance of the insa-
tiate desire for power and political am
bition of any man. The wisdom of di
Worcing the two departments is APP

Gaming.

It is almost a second nature of the
American people to take a chance. This
inclination, put in practice leads to gam
bling. Gaming is vice which is known
to be hard to eradicate, and you are
charged with the duty Of keeping this
crime al a minimum, and if possible, pro-
hibiting it entirely. But the citizenship
of this city is more interested in the pro-
.teeton of their homes and families from
the hghwayman, the thief and the bur-
glar than they are in the apprehension of
a 10-cent Gran game

Blind Tigers.

The issue of whether or not intoXicat-
ing liquors shall be sold in this city has
been decided by the ballot. 1t is not for
this department to say whether the issue
was rightly or wrongly settled. The law
shall have a fair trial. AS long as pro-
hibition remains upon the statute books.
this town is going to be dry. One of the
main arguments of the advocates of the
sale of liquor in the campaign was that
prohibition would not prohibit-that
blind tigers would run wild in the
town. This was tantamount to saying
that the law of the land could not or
would not be enforced 1t remains to be
seen If this charge will be laid at the
door OF any officer of this department
and let it be understood now that the Of
ficer who knowingly permits ar allows a
"blind tiger to run on his beat will be
summarily dismissed from the service
upon proof of that fact to this commits

In conclusion let me say that the most
cordial and friendly relations should exist
between this department and the sherff's
office of this county, each ready to aid
the other at all times in the suppression

review declares. depends upon easier

stringency began. While failures were
frequent during the last quarter of the
year the review points out that if the
comparison is carried back to previous
periods of distress there is much cause

revival of confidence both of which
seem nearer than at any time since
October.
