anything against her character"
II know she is a disturbing element
at kalvik, and has caused US a great
deal of trouble"
1t was Boyd's turn to laugh. But
surely that has nothing to do with her
character"
My dear fellow"-Marsh shrugged
his shoulders apologetically-"if I had
dreamed she was a friend of yours, l
never would have spoken"
"She is a friend" Emerson persisted
doggedly, and I admire her because
she is a girl of spirit. If she had not
beer possessed of enough courage to
disregard your instructions, I might
have been forced to eject your watch
man and take possession of one of your
canneries."

the others. Sometimes we are mis-
judged by travellers who consider US
heartless, but we can't take care of
every one"
Not even your sick natives. Well,
but for Miss Malotte some of your
fishermen would have starved this
winter, and you might have been
short-handed next year"

we support them?"
II don't know of n legal reason,
and ethics don't count for much up

Boyd.

chimed in. 1.-THE cener is more mar

they all assemble there in hat un-

should-had he the courage to con-
tinue his mad enterprise? 1t was all
so unreal! He was torn between the
desire to have Mildred agree, and fear
of the influence Marsh might gain
during such a trip. But Miss a
land evidently had an eye to her own
comfort, for she replied:

Marsh seconded him with all his
powers Of persuasion, but the girl,
greatly to Emerson's surprise, merely
reafirmed her determination.
"Oh. I dare say 1 should enjoy the
scenery" she observed, with a glance
at Boyd; ''but, on the other hand, I

The Engagement Ring.

Dear Margery Doom:
Kindly tell me If a man proposes to
a woman and Is accepted is il GUS
tomary and proper for him to hand or
place al engagement ring on her fin
ger at the time of acceptance, or can
the ring be given any time after the ac-
ceptance of the proposal?
IN DOUBT.
AS a rule a man does not purchase
the engagement ring until after he has
been accepted. as it is customary to
find out from the young woman her
preference in the matter of a ring. If a
man is absolutely sure that he will be
accepted and has already bought the
ring it would be entirely proper for
him to place the ring on her finger
when she accepts him. There is no
fixed rule in the matter, however.

made his adieus, but in leaving he bore
with him a weight Of doubt and un-
easiness in strange contrast with the
buoyancy he had felt upon his ar
rival.

time in emerging from his taciturn
mood upon Boyd's departure, and

Henry Anderson, his father, received
mortal wound, from which he died
yesterday; negro woman was seri-

where for a time a race conflict was
feared yesterday, was quoted without
trouble and all is reported quiet.
Coroner G. H. Ogbourne went to
Enoka yesterday from Tallulah, and
held an inquest, as the ARRAY occurred
at the Evans store at Enoka, which
is situated in Madison parish, about
two hundred yards from the line divid-
ing Madison and East Carroll parish
es.
The verdict was that John Ander-
son came to his death at the hands of
Abel Evans, and Henry Anderson
came to his death at the hands of par
ties unknown, as it was impossible to
determine who fired the shot which
killed him. Evans surrendered to the
coroner, but was released on his own
recognizance as the evidence showed
he was forced to kill the negro.

Special to The Neacs.

Special to The Neaos.
Jackson, Miss, July THE execu-
tive committee of the Mississippi
Land and Improvement Association is
scheduled to meet here today to map
out plans to carry out the, work start
ed at the recent Statewide conven-
ton. Upon this committee devolves
the responsibility for evolving some
way to properly advertise the state
and properly present the opportuni-
ties of Mississippi to prospective
home-seekers.
Just what plans will be adopted is
not known, but several are suggested
One of the first things to be done is
to raise more funds. 1t is planned to
raise $4,000 by annual membership
dues, to be used toward inducing new
settlers in the state. This work has
already been in progress and about
$4,000, has been raised But this
is not enough to carry on the work
until the next legislature meets, when
an appropriation will be asked to help
carry on the work.
President Sanders and Secretary
Davis have been working on plans for
the permanent organization, and these
will be submitted at the meeting to-
day. 1t seems to be the plan to have
the large land owners, including the
lumber companies of the state, to list
their property with the manager, a
certain per cent to be deducted from
all sales to help pay expenses of adj
vertising the state.
The meeting will take up other mat
tiers of importance, and may be in
session two or three days. 1t will be
decided by the committee whether the
general headquarters of the associa-
ton will be in Jackson or Natchez,
Manager Davis is on business at Nat
chez, and he would be compelled to give
this up, if required to move to Jack
son, while President Sanders and 9TH
ers regard Jackson as the logical To-
cation for > the headquarters. 1t may
be that DR.. Davis will remain at Nat
chez, while branch headquarters will
be established in Jackson, with Assist
ant w. w. Simonton in charge.
