YOUNG LADY KNOWS How.
Raises Four Bales Of Cottun Which She
Sells for $l.4OO.

There has been some pretty stiff
prices paid for cotton in this State
the present season. For instance,
ia Madison farmer got nearly $500
for a single bale, while a Yazoo
and an Issaquena county man sold
bales that netted them in the neigh
borhood Of $500 each.
This is doing pretty we'll, but it
remained for a young Kinds county
lady to beat them all. She resides
near Cayuga, and her father is a
we'll known and successful farmer
of that neighborhood. She had
been raised on her fathers place,
and had watched his methods of
farming, and took it into her head
that she could do something in that
line herself. Notwithstanding the
fact that the boil weevil has
operated in that vicinity to a con-
siderable extent, the young lady
made four bales of cotton, of a
very superior long staple quality,
and one day during the past week
she sent it to Utica, going along
with the cotton, and returned home
with 1,40O as the result of her
farming operations.
Of course the cotton of itself did
not bring this enormous sum, but
seeing its superior quality, a de-
mand was created for the seed and
its sale was included in the amount
she received,

Chinaman and Neeress Marry at
Jackson.

For the first time in, the history
of Kinds county, so far as the rec
ords 60 to show to the contrary,
license has been applied for and
issued for the marriage of China
man and a negress. this having
been among the transactions in the
circuit clerks office Saturday eve-
ming. The parties to the license
are Joe Toy and Ida May Began,
and as the clerk could find nothing
in the statutes against such an al
lance. the license was issued. The
Mongolian has been a resident of
Jackson for some time, and, in
partnership with the Began woman,
has been conducting a small grocery
and soft-drink establishment in
negro town. and there did not
appear to be anyone anxious to for
bid the bans.

The Candy That Price Sells.

Mr.. w. r. Price. of the Price
Drug Co., in Brookhaven, can do
what very few sellers of candy
anywhere can vouch for the abso-
lutte purity of the sweetness dis
pensed at their place of business.
We have reference to Jacobs candy

Price Drug Co. are exclusive agents
for in this city.
Mr.. Price returned last night

never saw a cleaner and more sani-
tary establishment than the one in
New Orleans, and that he is will

Yardaman is Solid in Amlte County.

Dear Editor:-I feel sure that

caption They Are After U.s."
The opposition would like very
much to nuzzle the press of the

they will not succeed, and we hope
you will continue to WELD the
bludgeon Of truth and not cover.

in for the secret caucus COM
bine, and will give them a rebuke
at the polls which they will not

fact that Mr.. Alexander was a

Mr.. A. MIKAS.
EuIOgy EeIivered by Dr.. !. ". Cooper,
Of WhitwOrth College.

The Leader takes pleasure in
printing below verbatim copy Of
the eulogy delivered by DIR. I. w.
Cooper at the funeral Of Mr.. A..
Mikas in Brookhaven last Wednes-
day:
Greece has impressed the world
-as no other nation-in the realm
OF philosophy, poetry, history ora
tory, architecture, sculpture and
painting. The Greek language is
a model of beauty and harmony.
Her history is thrilling and inspir-
ing. The names of Homer.
Socrates, Plato. Aristotle, Phydias,
Myron and Pericles are immortal.
More than thirty years ago one
of her sons came across the sea to
find a new home in the land of
Washington. The country of
Washington had already caught the
spirit of Demosthenes and Leonidas
and he was no stranger. He and
his brother brought the best from
their country and the best in the
new country gave them welcome.
We are here today to express our
sorrow that our friend has left US.
He was the embodiment of cheer
fulness. Did any one ever meet
him who did not feel the spirit of
his joyous greetings? If there
were any clouds around they parted
when he came and the wealth of
sunshine flooded the soul. 0, my
brother. the Apostle of Good Cheer,
in the lonely days we shall miss
thee! o.
The law of kindness was in his
speech. There was no poison in
his words. They were like honey
and the honeycomb. The character
of the absent one was safe when
he was present.
His conversation was as pure as
that of refined womanhood. His
words were as spotless as the lilies
of the valley.
He was from the land of Damon
and Pythias. Pythias never loved
Damon more than he loved his
friends. He was not only ready to
die for them, he was ready to live
for them. Every one loved him
he loved every one. Little chill
dren loved him-like little children
he was simple and unselfsh. Little
children cry in the streets. This
morning a young lady working in
an office) asked when will he be
buried. We cried last night. lie
brought US flowers. He loved
flowers and gave them away, just
as he gave his love and friendship.
The great Athenian when dying
said: 81 never caused an Athenlan
to go in mourning" Our friend
could have said this. He did not
forget his former friends, for he
requested to be buried near his
friend Warren.
He was not a Methodist, nor a
Baptist, nor Presbyterian, nor an
Episcopalian, nor a Roman Catho-
lie, nor a Jew-he belonged to the
brotherhood of mamie was a
Christian. We all say to the Greek
Catholic church, you can not claim
him. He belongs to the universal
church. All Christians are cosmo-
politan when they reach heaven.
Our friend was cosmopolitan here.
His love, for his brother was
beautiful, passing the love Of
woman.

erowths Which Exhaust Trees.

The growths which spring up near
plum and other fruit trees and roses
have an exhausting effect, and are
rightly termed suckers. They should
be carefully cut away from their point
of origin, removing little soil for the
purpose.
1t is useless to cut them off near the
ground; remove the soil down to the
root from which they spring, and make
clean cut with sharp knife. 1t may
be stated that the principal cause of
the appearance of suckers around fruit
trees Is the damage done by digging
among the roots of the trees with the
spade.
When carelessly used the spade
scrapes the surfaces of the thicker
roots, and from these wounded sur
faces the suckers spring When roses
throw up suckers around their base it
is owing to the non-removal of the
buds in preparing the stocks before
planting-Denver Times.
