NAMING OF STREETS.

Hattiesburg expects to be a city
some day. That is not mere talk. The
men who are at the helm; the men
who are building great railroad sta
tons, and enlarging their packing
plants; men of affairs, far-sighted and
judicious, when they say Hattiesburg is
going to be city some day, mean
it; they mean just what they say.
Now what would a city look like
with its streets named Elizabeth"
Agnes" Katie" "Rebecca," "John I"
and james," The names would not
mean a thing to anybody. Katie"
and "Rebecca," James and John
will have been lost in the shuttle, and
the stranger in a big city would be
lost trying to locate them. The
town itself is not any too fortunate in
its name, and to keep that sort Of
naming up would make it sound ridic-
ulous when IIattiesburg becomes "A
city.
We invite the attention of the City
Council, therefore, to the ques-
ton of remaining the streets. The
quicker it is done the easier and bet
ter; the longer it is put off the more
there will be to kick about it. In a
few years from now some people will
think they have a vested right in the
names of the streets they live on.
Better settle the question now, while
the town is young.
In naming the streets the consensus
of opinion is that only numbers and
not names should be used. Main" is
good name for a street, and Main"
in Hattiesburg might stand as it is.
1t should be the dividing line. All
the others should radate from that,
and they should be called avenues or
streets. and named numerically as
they come; the streets to run one way,
the avenues the other. And, to the
extent that it can be done, the lines
should be Strengthened some streets
connected with others, so that pedes-
TRANS will not have so many crook
ed, winding ways to travel
While we are building a city, let's
build it right.

INDICATION OF
CIIY'S PROSPERITY
One Of Strongest Is Wonderful Growth
Of Hattiesbure Trust and Bank
ing Company.

Elsewhere in the News is published
a statement of Hattiesburg Trust and
Banking Company, showing the condi-
ton Of the bank October 6, and report
ed to the auditor of public accounts,
as required by law, together with a
comparison of that condition with cor
responding date last year.
The proclamation of a return Of
prosperity to South Mississippi has
been made so many times and from
so many sources, it becomes a mat
ter of general interest whenever the
News is able to give concrete exam
pies of this proclaimed truth. Not
only are the patrons, stock holders
and officers of Hattiesburg Trust and
Banding Company Justified in their
appreciation of the splendid showing
made, but the general public should be
pleased to note this particular evil
dence of growth. Such showings give
indisputable evidence or return OIL

means health of the body. The per

assets and IA per cent. earned on cap

Lives Lost
An Awful Toll Collected by Consump-
ton. Many Unnecessary Deaths
From This Disease.

If people could only understand that
systemic catarrh is an internal dis
ease that external applications cannot
cure, they would not need to be warn
ed so often about this malady, which,
when neglected, paves the way often
times for consumption, at the cost of
millions of lives every year. Yet ca
tarrh may be cured, if the right trea
ment is employed.
Catarrh is caused by a general dis
eased state of the system which leads
commonly to annoying and perhaps ser
ious local conditions, which may prove
fertile breeding ground for germs of
consumption. External remedies give
but temporary ease.
The only way to successfully treat
catarrh is by employing a medicine
which is absorbed and carried by the
blood to all parts of the system, so
that the mucous membrane or internal
lining of the body is toned up and
made capable of resisting the infec-
ton of consumption and other dis
eases.
We have a remedy prepared from
the prescription of a physician who
for thirty years studied and made
catarrh speciality, and whose rec
ord was patient restored to health
in every case where his treatment
was followed as prescribed. The REM
edy is Rexall Mucu-Tone. We are so
positive that it will completely over.

CarIyIe's Prediction.

America, too, will have to strain its
energies, to crack it's sinews and all
but break its heart, as the rest of us
have had to do, in the thousandfold

demons, before it can become a hab.

1t depends very much upon the men
tai lenses you use. Some people con-
denim the theatre Unfortunately, all
plays alike. Others see good and bad
in it; the lights and the shadows.
Speaking of David Warfield's produc-
ton of the Music Master" the Chat
tanooga News says, "he bids fair TO
be as popular as Joe Jefferson. He
seems moulded in the part OF the old
German musician. The play is one
in which comedy and pathos are in
termingled. 1t aroused the emotions
of the audiences to high pitch. None
who saw it was not the better for the
spectacle" A lady who saw Blanche
Walsh; discerning and christian
lady, said, 'it was as powerful for
good as a good sermon" We saw in
five cent moving picture show the
other evening, the rehearsal of the
play entitled "A Drunkard's Reform. -

could picture to man the catastrophy
of a drunkard's life, stronger than
those moving pictures told the story.
There are sermons in trees and
stones and running brooks" and
sometimes in moving pictures. The
stage too often panders to that
depraved taste which loves to
look upon the seamy side of life !;
but quite as often between the tears
and fears, heart-aches and sad endings
of the play-folks, there is a lesson 70
be learned and a sermon to be stud
died 1t were not we'll, therefore, to
condemn the theatre Unfortunately
1t were better to differentiate between
the good and the bad, the moral and
the immoral and to demand more OF
the good and less of the bad. The
playwrights will give the public what
it wants.

There has been a search and seiz-
ure law in Alabama since the memory
of man runneth not to the contrary.
1t is so in all or nearly all the states.
If officers have reasonable grounds to
suspect that thieves inhabit house
and keep their stolen plumber there,
the officers have the right to procure
warrant and search that house, and
seize any, stolen property they may
find. Or if they suspect that coun-
terfeit money is being made in a
house or on the premises, they not
only have the right but it is their
duty to take out the proper warrant
and search the house and premises
and seize any counterfeit money they
may find 1t was not until the search
and seizure law was applied to blind
tigers that the kick came. In Mobile
they searched a house under suspicion
that whiskey was being stored and
furnished from that house. They
found some, but not much, and a
mighty howl went up from the whiskey
press and Tray, Blanche and Sweet
heart. One would suppose that it
was some bran new law; some entire
ly new principle OF law being invoked.
Whiskey orators are tanning the am
bent air all over the state and wax
ing red in the face and perspiring
great drops of booze, because some
body's castle" has been invaded. Did
you ever observe how quick liquor
tie Is to appeal to the law, and how
slow he is to obey it?
