ABOUT ST. HELENA.
Abounds in BeeItifGI scenery, but
Ia sn a E5ecadent state.

Abounds I'm Beautiful Scenery, but
Ia an a s5ecadent State.
TIE governor Of the Isle Of St Helena.
after eight years Of continuous service. is
now enjoying his first holiday, and is in
London. he says that untraveled Lon
doners know nothing about S.. Helena,
except that Napoleon was g prisoner
there and died at Longwood. He says
that practically no Napolecnic tradition
now survives among the islanders, who
number about 1850. Of whom 80 are
white. the garrison having been with
drawn four years ago.
st Helena Of to-day" says Gov. Call
wey, in the London Evening News. is
In a bad way. Her prosperity began to
take a downward course in 1855. when the
SOez Canal was opened. In the old days
thoU-,Id ships a year called at the
island. but now the number does not ex-
coed nifty or sixty. The general idea is
that the island is a barren rock. and so 1t
may appear 10 the passengers on passing
ships. but the scenery in the uDlands Is
beautiful There are rich grasslands,
woods in plenty. and hills covered with
an extraordinary variety Of tropical and
other vegetation. while the climate Is
probably the most healthy in the world.
Therefore, there is no foundation FOR the
statement often made thar Napoleon was
condemned to a bad climate so that it
might end his life.
The old house a. I.ongwOod, where the
Emperor passed the last six years Of his
life. is empty, and the French government
spends very little in keeping it in repair
Close by there is now an excellent golf
course Of nine holes
The tomb, from which the body was
taken in 1870 and conveyed to France,
is situated In a beautiful valley through
which runs a stream which bubbles out
Of a spring within a fe= yards Of the
grave. This stream is called the Sane.
and was thus named many years before
Napoleon was taken to St. Helena. The
fact is curious, because in his viii he ex-
pressed the wish that his body should
lie on the banks Of the River Seine. as
il does now. But Napoleon himself. IN
aware OF the name OF the little stream
in the valley. chose 1t as his temporary
resting place.
Napoleon liked that velley. He sat
in It q great deal and people who pic
ture him standing on a barren, volcanic
rock would be surprised If they could
see how charming that favorite spot IS.
There still exist the Venetian shutters IN
Count Bertrands old house. through
which the Emperor used 70 peep at the
British troops drilling on Deadwood
plain.
Napoleon did not like the idea OF
being seen. so in the shutters ne had
two holes made-one On level with his
eve when standing and the other when
seated. Shutters with holes complete
are stin in that little front room"

STILL AssA1I1Ne BURTON.
Longworth and Cox Angry at the
Junior Senator.

Junior Senator.
Columbus. Ohio. July S1-Politiclans
gosslped to-day when they learned what
George B. Cox said about Senator Bur-
ton in an affidavit Representative
Longworth's friends were inclined to be-
Iieve Cox, as they also encountered op-
position when they approached Burton
with suggestions as TO Longworth's can
didacy.
Cox says Burton Esd RoOsevelts SON
in-law was a snob. Longworths friends
hadn't heard that. but had heard things
about as caustic from Burton.
Many here think Cox Is about to retire
from politics, and has decided 20 get
even with some OF his old and some Of
his new political enemies. The Cox ex-
plosion has damaged Senator Burton ma
terially throughout the State In Ohio

balance Of power. with fourteen or If
teen members OF the house and senate
from his home county. That none Of his
votes viii be cast for Burton when the
junior Senator comes up for reelection
seems a foregOne conclusion.
In his sworn statement. Cox says that
Burton sent for him on the Monday night
of the convention and agreed with him,
in the presence Of Joe Garretson, editor
of the Cincinnati Times-Star, to divide
the Cuyshoga vote on the first ballot be-
tween the three avowed candidates and
deliver all Of his votes to Judge Brown.

and he could not secure respectable
following in half dozen counties IN

such. In fact while certain, sections

GRENADA COUNTY'S
BOYS CORN CLUB.


Rule l. Each contestant one-half
acre (2420 square yards) must be meas
ured by committee Of thyee disinter-
ested persons to be selected by himself
and said committee is to measure the
land and the yield, but all>measure-
ments must be made by this committee
at the time the corn is harvested, and
must be reported to the County Super
intendent Of Education on or before
October 18th, 1910.
Rule 2. The committees will be re-
quired to use the following method in
measuring the yield from each one-half
acre, Shuck and shell one barrel of the
average corn of the yiela; then measure
the entire yield on the one-half acre by
this same barrel similarly filled, thus
ascertaning the number of barrels in
the same. Multiply the number of
barrels in the yield by the weight of
the shelled corn obtained from the one
barrel, and you get the weight of she'll
ed corn in the entire yield, which if di-
vided by 56 gives the number of BUSH
els.
Rule 8. Each committee is expected
to use correct scales in weighing the
corn, make careful measurement and
true report.
Blank reports were mailed out tc
each member of the corn club last
week. If any member of the club fails
to receive one of these reports they car
be had by making application to this
office.
l expect all the boys to make re-
port and also an exhibit at the Grenade
fair.
In addition to the premium of S25 0(
in gold offered by Jno S. King on the
best yield on one-half acre. Hon. 7
U. Sisson will give premium of 81,

this very thing will cause the price to

While Mr.. Percy and candidate Alex

While Mr.. Percy and candidate Alex
ander have been for some time parad-
ing the state making speeches abusing
Vardaman, and thereby attempting to
boost their own candidacy, Mr.. Var
daman has had very little to say, and
his friends have set steady in the boat.
It appears extremely foolish for the
campaign to have been opened up so
soon. and Mr.. Vardaman seems to real
ize this fact to the fullest. We have
no special objection to the opponents OF
Vardaman saving away in an effort TO
corral votes, for we do not really be-
lieve tbey are going to be able to lasso
anv of the Vardaman supporters. Mr..
Vardaman's friends as a rule are Tor
him because they believe in the man or
in the principles he advocates, and
thew are men who are not likely 10

We have known candidates to start
ont on an aggressive campaign SC
much too far in advance OF the election
that they would wear out the patience
of few friends they had to start with'
and if Percy and Alexander DO mol
have a care they will be subjected t'
the same fate. vardaman is mar
