RIVALRY IN AERoPLANEs.

The feat Of ]. Armstrong Drexel In
breaking the record for altitude at
tanned by any heavier-than-air ma
chine was accomplished recently in
England with a French monoplane,
and has. as a consequence. served to
increase the rivalry between the mono
plane and biplane, the two types of
heavier-than-air machines. While for
the moment the monoplane has the
record for altitude. the biplane has
captured many other records. among
others that for long-dista1ce travelling,
says New Orleans Pica7une. So far,
then, no very definite data has been
developed to prove the superiority OF
either type over the other The mono
plane seems the moro graceful of the
two machines, as it more nearly re-
sembles a bird in fight; but, on the
other hand, the biplane appears the
stronger, because of its truss" con-
struction, and the steadier because of
its greater spread of planes. Ameri-
cans will naturally favor biplane.
because 1t is more typically an Ameri-
can development, as It has reached
its present success largely through the
labors of the Wright brothers. The
rivalry between the two types of heav-
ier-than-air machines will, therefore,
continue until one or the other has
demonstrated conspicuous superiority.
or both have given place to some new
ar type, which fulfils all requirements
more successfully.

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Der and October, will be withdrawn.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 Gulfport 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 one that is
capable of competing with other gulf
ports. The railroads showed 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-
tons.

/. /. AND c. OPENS.
Mississlppi's Biggest Female College
Full to Overlooking.

Columbus-The twenty-Sixth annual
session of the Industrial Institute aad
College, Mississippi's greatest home
Of learning, opened Tuesday morning
with the largest attendance in the his
tory of the school. Between 800 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. G. P. j. Mooney, editor
Of the Commercial Appeal, Memphis.
Mr.. MONEYS speech was enthusiast
tically received. He spoke earnestly
upon the Importance of thoroughness
and accurateness 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 reelected the wis
dom of his admonition and instruction
to the minds of 800 girls of Missis-
sippi.

DELTA HAS sEsT LANDS.
Prof. J. w. Fox Gives Sound Advice to
Planters.

Planters.
Prof. J. w. Fox, now of the Aricul-
tural and Mechanical College, but up
to this year manager of the Stoneville
experiment station, delivered most
sensible. instructive and interesting
speech at Inqianola to a 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 was that
he raised last year ninety-four bales
of cotton on eighty-five acres, and had
fifty-two days continuous dry wealth
er. But, he said, these people did the
poorest farming of any set Of people
on earth. Prof. Fox said his main OBJ
ject was. to induce Investigation 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 fertilizer.
That these lands had every element
therein necessary to grow any crop
save that one, nitrogen, which corn
and peas in one crop would afford suf-
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 peas. He said that it required
twice as much nitrogen to grow fifty
bushels of corn 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 it 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.

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


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, was
found in the thicket of Sucatonchee
creek bottom. Ike Dahmer left home
last Tuesday morning with 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 sign 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.

Systematic Work Lackinq.

According to the information in pos
session of Treasurer Clay Sharkey of
the Mississippi Confederate women's
monument fund, only two or three of
the counties have done any systematic
work toward building up that fund.
However, Mr.. Sharkey states that as
the fall months advance they expect
more liberal donations, and that event
ually all the counties will fall in line.
1t is a safe proposition that when the
movement attains statewide proper
tions the contributions to the fund will
grow in proportion to that degree OF
expression, and it is believed the seed
is being sown toward the attainment
of that end.

the week ended September II shows

DID Up Sensation.

Columbus.-The first term of circuit
court to be held in Lowndes county
since last January is now in session,
and the grand jury has already dug up
a sensation in connection with the
county farm. The county farm has
never been a paying institution, and
facts recently developed indicate that
money has been injudiciously expend-
ed. 1t is also alleged that the con-
victs have constructed a public road
which should have been constructed
by the man who has the contract for
the work in the district in which the
farm is located.
