NEWSPAPER WASTE.

Announcement comes from Ell Paso
Texas, that the Daily News of tha
city, has after years of struggling vol
unfairly quit business after spendina
| about fifty thousand dollars in TRYING
to keep a paper in a field that was al
ready filled, the publisher finally real
izing that it was useless to continue
to burn up his money.
There is probably no more certain
way of squandering money than trying
to maintain two newspapers where
there is only room for one, and the
more that the history of the two pa
pers in Hattiesburg is investigated
the more certain it is that money has
disappeared like magic. since two pa
pers were published instead of one.
The News does not hope to monop-
Ollie the newspaper field in Hatties-
burg, but for the present we do ex-

when we get real competition in the
newspaper field it will only be after
the promoters of any new enterprise
of this sort have thoroughly canvassed
the business interests and have ascer-
tanned that they are willing to saddle
themselves with the responsibility of
another paper.
There are always reasons for start
ing another paper in a place where the
field is already filled, and quite fire.
quently the motive is a desire to get |
even with some one instead of filling !
a real need in the newspaper field. |
For this reason it will be the part of |

THE LATEST TRAGEDY.

1t seems that one of our young men
had an engagement to call on a young
lady last evening. He attired himself
suitably, completing his toilet with &
six-shooter. 1t happened that he and
the brother of the young lady didn't
get along. They met on a street car,
there were words, blows and the snap
of that six-shooter. The young lady's
brother was shot through the heart
by her admirer, and another horrible
tragedy has been added to the long list
which has made Memphis almost a by
word in the nation. The young man
killed, but didn't call. If there had
been no pistol there would have been
no murder. There would have been
no dead son and brother in that now
desolate home; there would be no con-
science-stricken manslayer this morn
ing Just think of it! A man going to
call on lady, arming himself with

SHAKESPEARE REPEATS

Shakespeare often repeated the
same words and thoughts, and the say
ing so often INDUCED, that Shake
speare never repeats" is erroneous.
An examination of the works of this
prince of weird fancy shows that the
saying is without foundation of fact.
The phrase short and long of it,
is to be found in his Merchant of Ven
ice and Merry Wives.
Thereby hangs a tale is used in
three of his plays, Merry Wives. AS

chant of Venice.
This poet uses sea-storms to compli-
cate matters and impart the thrill of
terror to at least four of his dramas:
Tempest, Twelfth Night, Comedy of
Errors and Pericles.
The writer does not at present
recollect the use, of any other storms
on ocean, but it is not improbable
that others can be listed.
AS to having women to disguise
themselves as men, by DOMINIC mems
clothes, Julia does this in Tempest.

Adam Byrd, and he is reported as hay

state.
The fact of the matter is that the

the class of lower grades of lumber
which worries the manufacturer: his
high class heavy timber has no COM

reason to believe that lumber would
be any cheaper to the consumer with
free Canadian lumber than with the
present protection, for the retail dealer
would have bought where could buy
the cheapest and would have maintain

We can see no good reason for any
