On our journey from Pelion to
Steadman it was our privilege to spend
a few hours in the growing town of
Perry. This was our first visit to this
place, and to say that we were favor
ably impressed is expressing it mildly.
We met the merchants CT the town.
They carry elegant stocks of mer-
chandise. Messrs. B. A. Hutlo &
Son do lage business, and their
stock is superb and embraces pcacti-
cally everything in merchandise.
Starnes & Bodie is another enierpris-
ing firm. The school at Perry is un-
der the very able management of
Prof. @. W. Stuckey and the enroll
ment is large. The sick of the town
and surrounding neighborhood are
cured of their ills by that prince of
big-hearted men, Dr.. J. w. Milhouse,
who enjoys very wide practice. A
number of excellent families reside in
Perry. G. NJ. II.

Washington, February 1.-tSpeeial)-A few days ago Representative Hehin of Alabama, offered an amendment to the emergency appropriation bill asking for $9O, GOO additional for the purchase of rare and valuable seed for distribution and the amendment was lost by only one vote.
 Mir Hefiin was contending for the ad- ditional purchase of rare and valuable seed to be distributed among the farm CTS this year. He carried the fight to the senate and Senator Bankhead offered the Hetlin amendment when the bill came up for consideration there.
 A point of order was made against the amendment on the republican side and 1t was defeated, but MT. Hefin did not give up the fight. He is a member of the com mittee on agriculture and has succeeded in getting a provision in the appropria- tion bill just reported for the purchase of rare and valuable seed to be distribut- ed in the spring of 1910. He more than doubled the appropriation that he asked for in the house and the amount that the bill carries is S75,OOO.

ONLY SURVIVOR
 OF LAKE SCHOONER

New Orleans, February 1-William Rob- inson, the only surviving member of the crew of the schooner A. J. Ramsey, which sank in Lake Ponchartrain near Little Woods, La. Saturday, was brought to the Charity hospital here this after noon.
 In spite of the terrible ordeal through which he passed it is thought he will recover For 36 hours he was partially covered by the icy waters and lashed by the terrific winter blasts. He managed to hold on to the top of the cabin un- til he was picked up late Sunday by the schooner Petersen.
 Peter Jackson, captain of the schooner was swept off the deck Friday morning and was not seen again.
 After the Ramsey sank Robinson and two other members of the crew, George Rogers and George Jones' climbed into the tree of the mast. Rogers and Jones. were finally benumbed with the cold and fell into the water, where they drowned. Robinson, seeing he could not hold on to the mast longer, climbed down to the roof of the cabin, to which he clung until rescued All of those on board were negroes.
 Several schooners reported last night as being in distress in Lake Ponchar- train reached here safely today It is believed now that none but the Ram sey went down.
