Now that the British steamship,
Conway is at sea with the first car
go of cotton from Gulfport, on her
arrival at Liverpool Gulfport cotton
will be quoted for the first time in
history on the Exchange. The ship
pers with this first consignment were
at n disadvantage, as buyers abroad
assume this cargo is an entirely new
cotton. which is an error, as the
cotttn is not different from that
Eloving through New Orleans and
Mobile. With the next shipment fol-
lowing, when the class of cotton is
known in foreign markets, shippers
will be at an advantage pecuniarily.
The English steamship, Edith, of the
Tussco Line, of which j. w. CORY
and Co., of Gulfport, are agents, has
been chartered for the next cargo.
She will arrive in few days. She
will be followed by another later in
the month Of January. One thousand
five hundred barrels of cotton seed
oil as part cargo have been booked
on the third ship for Rotterdam, com
ing from the Exporters Cotton Oil
Company, of New Orleans, originat-
ing from their factory in Gulfport.

MUTILATED STAMPS ARE NOW
WORTHLESS.
GuIfport Record-Tribune:

Gulfport RecordTribune:
Until quite recently postage
stamp that was torn in half was
good enough to take the missive on
through the mails, but such stamps
are not good any more.
Under an order recently passed by
the Postoffice Department stamp
that is mutilated in the slightest de-
gree is worthless, and this is fact
that should be remembered by every
body.
By the terms of the new order, if
corner be torn off, no matter how
small, or the stamp mutilated in any
way, it can not be used. All letters
bearing such stamps will be held
at the postoffice two weeks for re-
covery, and at the end Of such time,
if not claimed, will be sent to the
dead letter once.
Another phase of the order is also
interesting. Permission is given in
dlviduals to perforate the stamp they
use with a reasonably small instru-
ment for indentificatDn purposes.
Such step is intended to prevent
the sending of anonymous letters or
the theft or mutilation of private
mail of any nature.

DEATH OF HENRY eRANDMoNT
Weii-Known Summer Residents
Death fastened by Christmas Rev
eiry at New Orleans on Christmas
Eve Nieht-Was Brother-in-Law to
n. A. ere, of this City.

The death Of Henry Grandmont,
which occurred at his home in New
Orleans at a late hour Christmas Eve
night, is the occasion of profound SCR
row and genuine regret at the loss
of so splendid gentleman.
He was a brother-in-law of H. A.
Perre, well-known citizen and busi-
mes man of this city, and was sum-
mer resident and frequent all-the-
year-round visitor to Bay st. Louis.
Anew Orleans paper of Christmas
Day gives the following account:
There are many who learned with
sincere sorrow of the demise of
Henry Grandmont, one of the oldest,
best-known. and most generally Liked
dry goods men of this city, which
sad event came tragically last night
at 1920 o'clock, at his home 1921
Esplanade avenue, while the care-free
were indulging in the usual Christ
mas eve celebration.
"Mr. = Grandmont's death was due
in main part TO the noisy merry y-mak-
ing. He had suffered for some time
from heart trouble and his physician
had ordered absolute quiet and rest
rhey had tended him carefully dur
ing two weeks past and it was be-
lieved that he was on the road to
recovery When the noise Of the
cannon crackers, torpedoes and 9TH
er fireworks began last night the
sufferer Immediately began to grow
more nervous, startled by each sue
cessive explosion. Finally, when
shortly after 10 o'clock, an Esplanade
)elt car rolled over and exploded a
number of big torpedoes which a
bevy of little lads, knowing naught
Of the sufferer, had placed on the
rails, his unstrung nerves gave way.
He sprang from his bed and sank
gasping into a nearby armchair. Doc
tors were hastily summoned, but be
Iore they reached him death had
closed his mortal life chapter
"Mr. Grandmont was born in New
Orleans fifty-six years ago, and after
completing his education found en-
ployment in a drygoods establishment
Soon afterwards he engaged in the
business on his own account, locating
at st. Ann and Chartres streets.
Abandoning this, he entered the en-
ploy of the Dreyfous Company, Linn
ited and six years ago accepted a
position as salesman in the Maison
Blanche, where he added to his wide
circle of friends among the shoppers.
He was generally regarded as one
of the ablest, most affable and best
posted drygoods men in the commun
ity.
In early manhood Mr.. Grandmont
welded Miss Elise Perre, of Bay st.
Louis, who with four sisters, survive
him. Inc sisters are: Mrs. r. l..
Bernard, Mrs. J. w. Gleason, Mrs j.
Seruntine and Miss Julia Grandmont.
THE funeral will be conducted by

which he is a member

MY SYMPHONY.

To live content with small means,
to seek elegance rather than luxury,
and refinement rather than fashion !;
to be worthy, not respectable and
wealthy, not rich; to study hard,
think quietly, talk gently, act frankly
to listen to stars and birds, to babes,
and sages with open heart, to bear
all cheerfully, do all bravely, await
occasions, hurry never; in word
to let the spiritual, unbidden and un,
conscious, grow up through the com
mon; this is to be my symphony

CHURCH SERVICES AT CUEVAS.
Catholics Hold Services-Fam
Choir of DeLise Furnishes Music.

The congregation at the Catholic
Church at Cuevas last Sunday was a
very large one. The main feature
was the rendition of the celebrated
Dewitt mass in four voices by the
noted DeLisle Choir. The music was
so beautiful and SO we'll executed
that one OF the church smembers ex-
claimed when going out lof church, If
We can hear such beautiful music
here on earth, then what will it be
in Heaven.' 1t is enough to say
that fine singing was greatly appre-
ciated by everyone present.

The President believes in Mr.. Taft,
as he always has, and leaving Wash
ington, will wish him well. But, after
all is said, he is not so enthusiastic now
about the work of his successor in of
fee as he was three months ago. This
may be due quite as much to the praise
that Mr.. Roosevelt s enemies have been
extending to Mr.. Taft as to anything
Mr.. Taft has done himself.
