A New Catholic Church.

As direct result of the Chapel
car of the Catholic Extension Soci-
ety's visit to Natchez few months
ago the Catholic residents of Red
Lick, Jefferson county. about "a
miles northeast of Natchez are to
have a church. The Catholic Ex
tension Sociery has donated liberal
ly to the building fund and Father
Spengler has raised a considerable
amount toward that end. He states,
however, that some money is still
needed.
Joe Zeigler, who has the contract
for building. has promised to have
the church ready by the last of the
month, when Bishop Helsin will
dedicate the building and confirm a
class. This will be the first Cath
olic Church erected in the COM
munity and will be called St. Mary's
Chatholic Church. There are only
about thirty or torty Catholics in
the community and considerable
help is consequently needed for the
building fund. .--Natchez Democrat.

Sprott-Harvey.

On Tuesday, June 18th, at Vicks-
burg, Mr.. Chas. E. Sprott, a pros
porous young man of this neighbor-
hood, and Miss Kate L. Harvey,
one of Claiborne's most efficient
teachers, were united in marriage.
Though the approaching marriage
had been announced at the Catho-
lie Church several weeks ago, It
was not generally known until the
happy couple returned to Port Glib
son after the ceremony had been
performed.
Ithad been planned that immedi-
ately after the marriage the couple
would take an extended bridal trip,
but the recent rains delayed farm
ing operations to such an extent
that the groom found it necessary
to postpone the trip until his work
at home is completed.

Rev. H.G. Hawkins received las
week from Lieutenant Commando
KittrelIe, executive officer of the
battleship Mississippi, stating that
the colored engineer who insulted
Mr.. Hawkins while that gentleman
was on board of the vessel at Match
ez, had been punished by being re-
duced from an engineer of the first
class to fourth class. This is Sc
we're punishment, bat it is not more
severe than the offense deserved.
While on the battleship Mr. Haw.
kins asked the engineer civil
question about some feature of the
Ship. The reply was pert and Of
fehsive, whereupon Mr.. Hawkins,
who was accompanied by several
ladies, rather than precipitate trou-
BILE, turned away from the man.
But this did not end the unpleas-
ant episode. The colored engineer
followed and was even more often
sive than before. Mr.. Hawkins then
got his name and the names of some
sailors standing nearby and i'm
mediately reported the matter to
the commanding officer, who as
sured him that steps would be TAX
en- to punish the offender. The
letter last week shows how faithful
ly he kept his promise.
Being reduced from first to fourth
class means loss of about half pay,
besides, 1t will be years before the
the lost numbers can be regained,
and there is a possibility of their
never be regained.

The blight which the cattle tick
casts over the agriculture OF the
South is graphically pictured by
Mr.. Herman; but we cannot for
one moment accept the conclusion
at WHICH he serms to arrive-that
the farmers of the South must stick
to all-cotton system until they are
rid of the ticks. We rather think
that we must begin the fencing OF
our pastures, the cleaning out OF
the ticks, and the breeding of more
and better cattle all at the same
time. In any case, we must get
rid of the cattle tick. We cannot
afford to have this burden resting
upon US in the future. With vlg-
orous, determined, persistent effort,
the South could be practically freed
from ticks in five years and the
South placed upon an equal foot
ing with other sections in cattle
raising Southern Farm Gazette.
Every farmer and all others IN
terested in the welfare of Missis-
sippi ought to urge the Representa-.
tive and Senator from every coun'
ty to vote for an appropriation tc
eradicate theItick in this state.

THE TOWN BEAUTIFUL.


In a recent interview with q
Reveille reporter his Honor the
Mayor made a suggestion which
might meet with thefavorable con.
sideration Of the prospective mem.
bers of our proposed Civic Associ'
alton. This suggestion was to the
effect that a general monthly clean.
ing up day for our town should DC
appointed, on which the private
enterprise of the citizens should
combine with the public efforts ol
the municipality to accomplish The
work IN view.
In offering such suggestion any
reflection on the competent city
officials such as the Town Marshal,
Sanitary Inspector and their as
sistants was earnestly disclaimed.
Their work has been and is being
we'll and diligently done as far as
It can be directed by their constant
and faithful personal attention,
and as far as the insufficient fnan-
cial means at their command may
empower. Their services deserve
and receive full recognition from
an appreciative community.
Likewise there was no suggestion
or insinuation conveyed in his
Honor's remarks that we are dirty
or disreputable-looking as a mu-
nicipality. Perhaps, without of
fence it might have been delicately
limited that it would profit the
town to make itself the leastwise
cleaner. Except in a few instances,
under the conditions, il would be
no Augean task to accomplish that
desirable work, and thus heartily
cooperate with the efficient Health
Inspector in promoting the good
cause of local sanitation.
The idea is advanced from the
Mayors mind that in order to
brighten and further beautify our
normally clean, pretty and delight
full town, and have it so that it will
be unrivalled in the matter of pub
lie health and comfort, and also in
an esthetic sense, as it already is
in its natural charms and its high
degree of human refinement, it Is
necessary for our private citizens
and our public officials to work to-
gether for at least once a month
toward the end specified.
This excellent custom prevails
in other towns of similar size and
like lack of financial resources,
Where, under the ablest and
most energetic supervision pro-
curable, the public treasury i:
powerless to perform as much
work as meets the popular require
ments why should not our towns
people here, as we'll as elsewhere
suggests his Honor, get their head:
together and have it done IN pop
ular way1 They could not thus
pave our streets with wood, brlcl
or artificial stone, as our Board o
Aldermen once vainly tried to do
but they could do all that was de
sired in the extra advancement o
the general health, comfort ans
happiness,

England is reapting in vanish

Germany's case is still more con-

The following is the summary of
Farmers Bulletin No. 318:
The COW pea is the best legume
for the entire cotton belts, and can
be prohtably grown much farther
north.
To make good cowpea hay re-
qares careful handling Of the crop.
The plant should have made its
growth and have at least the first
pods ripe when the moving is done.
The curing is best done in small
cocks and the hay is ready for the
stack or barn when no moisture can
be wrung from the stem by twist
ting it with considerable force.
Cowpeas for hay production are
very advantageously grown in mix
ture with sorghum, Johnson grass,
or soy beans. The yield is thus
increased, the quality improved,
and the curing more easily done.
Pasturing cowpeas is not the
most economical practice, but it is
frequently resorted to because of
the small expense it entails. Cow
peas are especially suitable for
grazing hogs.
Cowpea hay is very nutritious.
1t is nearly equal to wheat bran as
part of a ration. 1t is satisfactory
for work stock and for beef or milk
production, and it gives good re-
suits when fed to poultry.
Cheaper cowpea seed will result
in the much more extensive grow
ing of the crop. Harvesting for
seed can be done most cheaply by
the use of machinery. The crop
should be cut with a mower when
half or more of the pods are ripe.
When thoroughly dry the thrashing
may be done with thrasher.
Cowpeas add nitrogen to the soil
and improve its mechanical condi-
tion. They are most proftably
grown in rotation with other crops.
