a plan to drive its tunnel through the

from 200 to $50 feet from the ore
body. Bulk headings and timbering

was too much for the timbers. Steel

ported to be between 200 and $50 feet
from where the ore body should b.

LIFE SENTENCE.


A life sentence under the law
means imprisonment until the death
of the prisoner.
The people are to blame that usual
ly lit is only few years confinement
Maudlin sentiment, sympathy for tn
convict's family, and sometimes po-
litical influence, secures the pardon.
Our law should be changed SO
that a sentence should never be re-
duced, unless new evidence should
be found proving that the party was
innocent of the crime charged. A
better system of guarding prisoners
Should be inaugurated so that escapes
would be practically impossible.
The trusty convict guard system
Isl all wrong.
Recent convictions of murderers
in this State give hope of less crime,
but until few hangings legally oc-
cur and man killer knows that
a life sentence actually means prac-
tically shut out of the world the
rest of his earthly existence, the
crininally inclined will continue to
take chances with Mississippi juries
and trust, if convicted, to a pardon
from a tender hearted governor who
is entrenched behind a lengthly PEI
titiOn from many of the most prom
inent people of the State to turn
him loose.
Quit signing pardon petitions and
the country will be better off.

Recent reference to the uncared-
for grave of the mother of Governor
John j. McRae, which is at the little
town of Sanford, in Covington codn-
ty, and the opportunity presented for
some good work to be done by way of
restoring the mound and the head
stone, suggests an inquiry as to the
resting place of the son who in the
later fifties became Governor of his
S tate. According to the official re-
cords and archives Governor McRae
lies buried in British Honduras, wher
he died after the war between the
States. Director Rowland states that
the plea for assistance in the work
of looking after the grave of
Mrs McRae appeals strongly to all
connected with the historical and res
toration work, but his department
has no funds for this specific line
of endeavor, and it remains for pri-
waite or. philanthropic enterprise to
undertake the work. So far as
known the only Governors of Mis-
sissippi who lie buried beneath the
soil of the Capital City of the State
are George Poindexter, Abram N.
Scott, Charles Lynch, A. G. McNutt,
A. G. Brown and VIM. l.. Sharkey,
and the care of their graves is not
Systematically carried on by anyone,

PELLAGRA.

Mrs. India Ray Bell died at Hatties-
burg Tuesday of Pellagra, a disease
caused from eating bread made from
meal ground from unsound corn. For
years the disease has been common
I'M Roumania, Spain and Italy, but
has been known i'm the United States
only two or three years. The treach-
erol1s insidiousness of the disease
makes it one difficult to handle, as
1T may hnger i'm the system for sew
eral months. 1t first attacks the mu-
cous membrane of the mouth, threat
and stomach, and possibly the first
we'll -defined symptom may be found
In the erythema or the superficial red
ness of the mouth and lips. This cry
thema some times afterwards begins
to attack the skin of the back of the
hands and the top of the feet, pro-
ducing a dark discolorahAon, the aft
fected skim soon beginning to- break
DOWN and peal off The essential
features of the disease is said to be
am impairment of and Instruction of
the functions of the stomach and the
attack upon the nervous system.
The victims usually lose their
minds before death relieves them
and no cure has yet been found for
it,
The plan of cutting and shocking
the corn before fully matured NO
doubt is the reason for Pellagra be-
coming less rare. There is no bread
more wholesome than that made from
sound corn but the only way cine can
be certain it is good is to grow the
gTain, see that it is sound and have
