AT Verona cemetery Sunday at ter
O'Clock friends and loved of.es gathered
to pay the last tribute Of respect and
loye to the remains. Services were
conducted by Rev Babb, assisted by
S. P. Harris. While the sweet strains
of .'Asleep in Jesus rose soft and
clear, friends lowered the white casket
to It's last resting place. The sorrow
ing little schoolmates covered the
mound with beautiful floral offerings.

Looped back from the waxen brow;
Little hands, so dimpled and white, !
Clasped together, cold tonight. |

Two pale lips with kisses pressed,
There we left her to her rest;
And the dews of evening weep
Whede we left our Zaidee to Sleep"

Davis and George.

In the Hall of Fame at Wash
ington two inches have been set
aside for each state to place
therein the statues of her two
most favored sons. This is done
by act of the state legislature and
approved by congress. Some of
the southern states have never
filled the spaces allotted to them
for the reason that some of their
greatest and best loved men were
connected with the Southern
Confederacy and it has been the
popular belief that congress
would not accept the statues of
confederate soldiers, or allies, to
be placed in this famous hall.
After waiting a number of years
Virginia has at last taken action
and by act of her legislature will
present to the Hall of Fame in
the national capital the statues
Of Geo. Washington and Robt. E.
Lee. In the selection of these
two men Virginia has every right
to feel great pride, as it has been
her happy lot to place there the
Father Of his country" and by
his side one no less great and one
no less beloved in the South
where he was best known.
The places allotted to Missis-
sippi are yet vacant and as Vir-
ginia has acted SO it is time for
Mississippi to follow suit and
present to that hall statues Of
her two best loved men. And as
Virginia placed the Father Of
his Country and next to him a
great and good Confederate sol
der, who rendered good seviee
both in war and peace, so should
Mississippi place there the Faith
er Of the Confederacy, if such
we may call Jefferson Davis, and
by his side should be the statue
Of JAS. z. George, who in point
of distinctive service to his state
has given more to Mississippi
than any man who has ever lived
within her bounds. The editor
of the Sentinel will favor at the
legislative session next winter
tie passage Of an act placing in
the hall OF Fame ia the national
capital at Warrington in the
inches allotted TO Mississippi the
statues Of jefferson Davis and

In Memoriam.

How silently the rover roWed,

Though well we knew the boatman pale

We knew cur loved had neared the

While layed her feet the rising food

She saw when eyes of ours were dim,
She heard when ears vf ours heard

Ana mid our grief, amid our tears.
We felt her room a hallowed spot.

TAX ON PISTOLS PROPOSED BY
StSSON.
Will Increase Cost But Will Not Get
Them on the Tax Rolls.

T. T. Sisson, one of Mississippl's
new representative in Congress, has
made a start towards earning his
salary by introducing bill providing
for a 50 tax on all pistols dirk knives
and brass knucks manufactured and
sold in the United States. In view
of the fact that the consumer would
have to bear the tax Mr.. Sisson is
going to have good deal of explain
ing to do when he enters upon his
next campaign for a denomination.
The State of Mississippi has abund-
ant proof that there is small use
trying to tax pistol after it gets in
10 the hands of the individual, as
they will not return them TO the
assessor for taxation. In cities the
size of Jackson where every man
owns and hundreds carry pistols,
only about 100 were found on the as
sessment roll. There should have
been at least five thousand. The
same is true of every city and town
in the State. Every negro arrested
