Mississippi's Biggest Female College
Full to Overlooking.

Columbus.-The twenty-sixth annual
session Of the Industrial Institute and
College, Mississippi's greatest home
of learning, opened Tuesday morning
with the largest attendance in the his
tory of the school. Between 300 and
400 other young women Of this state
have applied for entrance, but their
applications were late and all dormi-
tory room was filed.
The inaugural address was deliver
ed by the Hon. c. P. ]. Mooney, editor
of the Commercial Appeal, Memphis.
Mr.. MONEYS speech was enthusias-
tically received. He spoke earnestly
upon the Importance of thoroughness
and ac~curateness of work. While old
scholastic studies are valuable and
should be studied, yet they should not
be studied to the exclusion OF those
things which touch life directly. EN-
phasizing the Importance of careful
study of the English language, Illus
trating this necessity by examples
drawn from his own experience with
both men and women who had been
graduated from leading colleges, and
who held degrees, who could not spell
simple words or form elementary SEN
fences, the speaker reflected the wis
dom of his admonition and instruction
to the minds of 500 girls of Missis-
sippi.

Maj. Sylvester wants the members

joyment they car, he does not, how
ever, want them to violate the law.

RATE CASE COMPROMISED.
Commission Accepts Compromise OF
fered by Railroads.

The Mississippi Railroad Commits
sion has accepted the compromise Of
fered by the railroads of the state in
the Gulfport cotton rate case, and the
suit pending in the state and federal
courts to prevent the commission en-
forcing the order, issued last Septem-
Der and October, will be withdrawn.
This compromise places Guifport on
a parity with New Orleans and Mo-
bile as regards cotton rates, and the
rate extends into Memphis, thus CIV
ing the cotton producers of Missis-
'sippi more than was asked for in this
case.
This is considered one of the most
important matters handled by the
commission for several years, as it
means the development Of a great
port for Mississippi and n that is
capable of competing with other gulf
ports. The railroads showed a desire
to help Mississippi in this matter, as
they have in others. Though an in
junction was secured against the COM
mission soon after the orders were
issued, and are still pending, the rail
roads had no desire to fight the COM
mission, but simply wanted to study
the situation and understand condi-
lions.

DELTA HAS BEST AND
Prof. J.. w. Fox Gives Sound Advice to
Planters.


Prof. j. w. Dx. o Of the Aricul-
tural and Mechanical College, but up
to this year manager OF the S~toneville
experiment station, delivered q most
sensible. instructive and interesting
speech at Indianola to q large sized
audience.
The speaker said that the Delta had
the best farming lands in the United
States, and this he had learned from
actual observations by visiting. The
best example he could cite vas that
he raised last year ninety-four bales
Of cotton on e~ighty-ive acres, n had
fifty-two days continuous dry wealth
or. But, he said, these people did the
poorest farming OF any set Of people
on earth. Prot. Fox said his main OBJ
iect was to induce diyersifcation OF
crops, and he made it plain that these
lands will perish without the planting
of corn and peas which, he asserted,
had no equal as a fertilizer.
That these lands had every element
therein necessary. to grow any crop
save that one, nitrogen, which corr
and peas in one crop would afford SUI
fcient to make poor lands produce one
bale of cotton per acre following, and
he Insisted at all times the sowing OF
one and a half bushels per acre OF
the pea He said that it required
twice as much nitrogen to grow nifty
bushels of corr per acre as it did to
grow one bale OF cotton per acre.
He insisted that native corn should
always be planted for the best yield
and for housing purposes, but that
Northern corn could be grown earlier
and to some advantage, provided 1T Is
used for immediate feed, and not kept
for a future use. What was said
along the hog raising line was edify'
ing and it is believed will bear fruit

Some Districts Show IS Per Cent Are
Infected.

In the districts of the state, as laid
out by DR.. Leathersy in charge OF the
sanitary work for the mississippi
board of health, 50 per cent OF the
people are infected with hook worm.
This is in the more remote parts OF
the state. but even in the cities and
towns, the injection ranges from . to
10 per cent OF the population.
This would be appalling, under oful-
nary conditions, but with the Ihysl-
clans all over the state, the DRUGGISTS
and people generally cooperating the
field agents of the board OF health IN
the work it is not as bad as 1t appears,
nor any worse than in other states
where the work has been taken up.
Every state in the Union is more or
less affected, but the infection Is more
general where little or nc attention Is
paid TO sanitation and hygiene.
While the infection is worse in soni.
parts than others, it is due entirely
to conditions. In the cities, where the
sewerage is good, the conditions are
nothing like as bad as even in the
smaller towns, where they have no
sewerage system.
The infection, according to the re-
pefts, is more serious in South Mis-
sissippi, but the people there realize
the situation fully and are giving the
Sad agents every cooperation in
their work.
DIR. feathers says the disease is SO
prevalent it is attacking u econcm-
lead conditions. The children are
dwarfed, physically and mentally, and
are unable to do good work in the
schools, while they are Indifferent to
their work at home.
One of the field agents made a re-
port on one school in South Missis-
siupi, where there are % pupils. OF
this number 81 were infected, zine
seriously, while the teachers also had
the disease.

DRAG BODY THROUGH WOODS.
Horribly MultiIated Corpse Is Found
by Houston Citizens.

by Houston CttizenS.
Houston.-A horrible tragedy was
revealed in the eastern part of this
county, near Buena Vista, when the
body of Ike Dahmer, a negro man, RAJ
found in the thicket Of S~ucatonchee
creek bottom. Ike Dahmer left home
last Tuesday morning with a wagon
and team and never returned.
The wagon and team were found in
the road, but the driver was missing.
Nothing more was heard of him till
his body was discovered in a thicket.
There were several bullet holes in his
body. The parties that committed the
crime cut the skin on the top of the
head and had taken all of the skin off
of the forehead and face, leaving the
body more difficult to identify.
Many parts of the body were cut,
lacerated and torn away. The head of
the victim had been burned.
The knife of the negro was found
in his overalls, and this was the first
clew to establishing his identity.
Bruises and scratches on the body,
the siga that led up to the place where
the body was found, showed that the
body had been dragged more than a
mile through the woods.

w lSHINGTON-The Indications be
W ing that the census will show the
population of the United States 70 be
over 80, 000, 900, 1t seems assured that
the republic contains more than half
of the inhabitants OF the New World.
1t is quite probable that all OF the re-
naming countries of this hemisphere
have fewer than $4,000. 900 inhabi-
tants.
That point can never be settled def
nitely until conditions change radi-
cally In many extensive regions of
Latin America. Now most Of the
states south of Mexico and north
the Argentine either make a farce of
their census taking or else do not at
tempt it at any time.
Recent estimates, partly based upon
census records. which have been
made In South America and Central
America, indicate that there are about
10000. 900 people living between the
Rio Grande and Cape Horn, including
the West Indies. Canada has per-
haps 7,000,0 600, allowing for rapid
growth since the census of 1901, and
Newfoundland adds less than ESQ, 900.
Unless the estimates. which seem
most in~telligently made, are very wide

act statistics of population, the total
