At the urgent request OF the boar i

has consented to remain in active
management Of the college until his
successor can be chosen. Further
more, he will remain as a guiding
spirit in the direction of affairs, hav-
ing been unanimously elected presi-

No action was taken by the board
looking to the appointment of Bishop

full whether the vacancy will be filled
until several months hence. Numer-
Gus applications are on file, among
them being letters from prominent
educators in other states. The trus

field before making their selection

Jackson, Miss, June Among the
several important subjects to be
brought up for discussion when the
general board of trustees of the four

of a new $4,000 dormitory on the

made at the last session of the legs-

There is an imperative need for this
building, dormitory facilities having
been insufficient to accommodate all
students who applied for admission

limit the attendance to about 800
young ladies. If the facilities exist
ed the enrolment for the next col

near BEER men
Want HIGH License
Think If The Privilege Should Be
Raised to s1oo or $3.50 they Would
Stand a Better Chance.
Special to The Ne,0s.


Jackson, Miss, June Some
of the near-beer dealers will
ask the city council to put
special tax on this beverage
They are not doing it frsm patriotic
motives. but because they think thrt.
TO raise the tax to 500 Or $500, many
of the small dealers would be shut
out. thus giving the larger handlers
of the stuff a sort Of monopoly On the
business.
The movement was started Satur-
day to get higher license on the bust
ness, and the council may be asked,
at the meeting Tuesday, to raise the
tax At present the city gets only
81 25 from the sale of this drink, and
there are some of the city authorities
who think that, as long as it is to be
sold the city should get some revenue
| from it.
As it is, every man with a soft
drink license can sell near-beer and
this splits the business up so that
there is not much in it for any one.
Some of the dealers think if they can
limit the number of dealers by getting
a higher tax on this commodity, there
will be pretty good money in the game
for them. They put it upon the same
ground that the city authorities do
that the city should get more revenue
from it's sale-but it is readily under
stood why they want some of the
little fellows frozen out of the game
The city is only allowed to charge
one-half the tax levied by the state
and county under the present soft
drink license, but special tax can be
levied against dealers in near-beer by
the city, which would mean several
hundrd dollars additional revenues al
least. While 800 has been suggested
as the proper tax, there are some OF
the big fellows" who would not OBJ
iect to double that amount, for they
figure that the higher the tax the less
competition and more business they
will have.
That is thought to be a good bust
ness view of the situation, and one
that would prevent the indiscriminatC
sale of near-beer throughout the city
1t is being sold everywhere at present
and there was suggestion that The
city pass an ordinance restricting thu
streets upon which it could be sold
but this point is doubtful and ma!
not be attempted.
Reports from other parts of th'
state are to the effect that near-bee
has been put on sale in nearly ever,
city and town in the state. There ar
some places where sentiment is s.
strong against its sale that it will no
be attempted, but generally speaking
every city and town in the state ha
its oasis in the Mississippi desert
This will not affect Vicksburs
where beer has always been sold, an
the Vicksburg people don't wan
something almost as good whe
they can get the genuine article
} Then, too, the saloons on DeSoto is
land keep the Vicksburg atmospher
damp, and there is no need for neal
beer.
Just what will be done in the wa
of taxing the sale of this drink i
Jackson remains to be seen. Liquor
have been sold here in good quaint
ties in all these years of prohibition
bat the dealers have only had fee
eral license, as the state would nj
issue license for any price for tn
sale of intoxicants.

1t appears that of the customs of the
store in which she arrested is to allow
the patrons to select articles from the small

to be wrapped. Mrs. Denniston had selected
two combs and wns taking them to a clerk.
so she stated, when she was accosted by a

protested her Innocence and used strong lam

arrest.
A friend OF the accused woman attempted
to furnish bail. but when told that she, could
not do SO. as no bail had been named by the
arresting officer, he became active, and as a
result the charge was reduced to drunkenness
and Mrs. Denniston was released. The combs
still are being held at the police station.

down the etching needle, Joseph Pen

he cannot be more highly honored in
his own country than he has been in
foreign lands. At the last Paris ex-
position the only gold medal of the

signal distinction was the special in

power in depicting the charm of time
