LARGE DEAL IN REAL ESTATE

A very important transaction
has been consumated during the
past week in the timber business.
The deal consisted in the pur-
chase of all the timber belonging
to Evans Bros. to the Wilder
muth-Bending Co. of Columbus,
Ohio. This deal was consumat-
ed by the Adams Realty Co.
Mr.. Herbert Stanley stated that
this sale means a great deal
more to Columbus than appears
on the face of it. The Wilder
muth Bending Co.. is a large
concern which manufactures
automobile spokes and rims and
they have about decided to put a
branch of their industry in Co
lumbus for the purpose of finish
ing raw material here. The To-
cation has already been selected
and operations will be begun in
the very near future.

A very interesting and in
structive service was held at the
Second Methodist church on Bell
avenue Sunday evening.
The officers of the local auxil-
iary who had charge of the meet
ing and sat within the chancel
were: Mrs. r. P. Neblett, pres
ident, Mrs. Henry Cox, 1st vice
president, Mrs. J. A. Jourdan,
3rd vice. president. Mrs. Sam
Erwin, secretary. and Mrs. A. B.
Dixon, treasurer.
The chorus by the children of
the Juvenile Missionary Society
was very pleasing. Each of the
officers explained the work in
her department and Miss Marye
Neblett of Brownsville, Tenn,
gave a reading: ''The Finding
of the Cross" One of the best
features of the program was
recitation by Miss Stella Clardy
an exceptionally talented young
lady. the subject matter being
Leaves from the Diary of a
Member of a Missionary Society. "
Little Gertrude Reynolds ex-
planned the method and use of
the baby roll. Four young men
from the Senior Epworth League
sang a beautiful quartette. A
fitting and loving tribute was
paid the memory of Mrs. w. B..
Waters, by Mother Erwin, who
knew her as child, young wo-
man and missionary.
The house was we'll filled with
interested listeners and dispite

SEVERE SLUMP IN
COTTON MARKET
WEATHER MORE SATISFACTORY
JULY AND AUGUST OPTIONS DROP on
REALIZING. SOME RECOVERY IS
MADE

New York, July 19. The cot
ton market was sensationally
active again today and prices
declined even more rapidly than
they had recently advanced un-
der heavy general liquidation and
aggressive selling for short ac-
count. At the low point of the
day July showed a net loss of 81
points and August of SO points,
but the close was a little up from
the lowest, although the final
was barely steady at a net de-
cline of from Ia to 48 points.
The market opened steady at a
decline of 6 to Ia points under
realizing and local bear pressure,
inspired by an idea that July
short interests had either cover
ed by purchases of contracts, or
through shipments of cotton
from the south or Liverpool, and
that the bull leaders would not
oppose a good reaction following
the recent excited advance.
Early sellers found big over
night buying orders around the
ring, however, and shortly after
the call prices rallied to within 3
or points of yesterdays closing
figures, but weather reports
were little more satisfactory
owing to the showers in Texas
and the prospects for clearing
conditions in the eastern belt,
and as soon as the demand from
outside sources began to slacken,
local sellers became even more
aggressive.

SUCCUMBS To
HEART TROUBLE
REMAINS SHIPPED LAST NIGHT
MRS. ELIZA ASKEW OF HATTIESBURG,
DIED At LAKE PARK AT AN EARLY
HOUR TUESDAY NlGHT

The citizens of Columbus were
shocked on Tuesday evening to
hear of the sudden death of Mrs.
Eliza Askew, which occurred at
Lake Park at 9 o'clock. She was
72 years of age, and her death is
supposed to have been caused
from organic heart trouble.
Mrs. Askew, who resided in
Hattiesburg, was in Columbus on
a visit to her daughters, Mrs. E..
F. Griffin and Miss Fannie Askew,
the latter of whom had been i'll
for some time, came to Columbus
several weeks ago to recuperate.
Mrs. Askew was apparently in
good health and had gone with
her daughter, Mrs. Griffin, to
the park where they were enjoy
ing the entertainment. Suddenly
she fell on her daughters shoul-
der and expired without a strug-
gle Gunter Bros. were immedi-
ately notified and sent their am
bulance out for the remains.
The body was shipped to Hat
tiesburg at II o'clock last night
via NJ. & O. r. R., where the
funeral will be held today, con-
Quoted by Rev. Trotter of the
First Baptist church of that city.
Mrs. Askew was a noble Chris
tian woman, and besides many
near relatives she will be missed
by a large circle of friends.

The Mississilsi Land Develop
ment Association, which was the
outcome of the successful State
wide immigration Convention
held in jackson last month, has
gone actively to work with def
mite plans and purposes.
The officers and the executive
committee held a meeting in
Jackson on July z, and formu-
lated plans for work. The first
of these consists in the appoint
ment in each county of the state
a direetor. These directors will
be named within each congress
sional district by the member of
the executive committee residing
in the district. Each director
will, in his county, solicit men,
bers for the organization, and
assist in all other work within
his county. The membership
fee is 81 per annum. or $5 for a
life membership.
The membership in this new
organization, which promises so
much for the state. is increasing
daily. There is not a community
in the state that will not be
directly helped by this great

ligent and energetic farmers the
now idle lands of the state. 1t
is believed that the membership
will soon reach %, 900.

MEMORIAL SERVICES
HELD SUNDAY
IN FIRST METHODIST CHURCH
IN HONOR OF MRS. LULA LlPSC0MB
WATERS FOMERLY 0FCOLuMBUS WHO
PASSED AWAY M CALIFORNIA

Beautiful and inspiring memo
rial services were held at the
First M. E. church on last Sun
day at IL o'clock in honor of
Mrs. Lula Lipscomb Waters who
passed away in California. Mrs.
Waters for many years had been
a missionary with her husband
in Japan where they were doing
a great service until her
ters' health failed, and they
came to the United States. Up
on arriving at San Francisco she
was so i'll that she was taken to
St. Helena Sanatorium to recu-
perate enough to come on to her
mother and loved ones, but she
gradually grew worse until the
end came.
The services began with appro-
pirate songs by the choir after
which Mrs. Julia Leigh, aschool-
mate of the deceased gave a
short sketch of her life, in which
she spoke feelingly of her spot
less life and ennobling examples.
She said: Lula Lipscomb gradu-
ated from the Columbus Female
College and later graduated from
the Peabody Normal School at
Nashville, Tenn. For several
years she taught in the Franklin
Academy and was unusually sue
cessful in her work. She was
from childhood a consecrated
Christian, as she grew older she
became impressed with the fact
that she would be a missionary,
believing in this way she would
have an opportunity to conse-
crate her life to Christ's cause.
She went first to China and later
met Rev. Waters and they were
married and went to Japan for
service. Four children were
born unto them, three survive,
one was buried on foreign soil. !"
Miss Mary Stokes next read a
biography written by Mrs.
Georgia Young that went into
detail, and told of the great
work she had accomplished here
on earth. Mr.. O. P. Brown.
who for many years was this
consecrated young woman's
teacher in Sunday school, paid
her beautiful tribute.
Mrs. Mary Erwin who had
been very close to her in her
girlhood days gave some sweet
personal experiences and read
several passages from the Good
Book, that had been Mrs. Wa
ter's notices in life. Rev. T..
w. Lewis closed the impressive
service by making a short talk
on the good that Mrs. Waters
had done and closed by saying
that instead of building momu-
ments to generals and great
men of war that he would build
them to the memory of such as
Lula Lipscomb Waters.

Lightning Strikes Barn.

The Columbus fire department
was called to Tabb's Hill, in the
eastern part of the city. at 9:15
Sunday night. A barn which is
owned by Mr.. Henry Recthin
was struck by lightning and but
for the quick work of the fire
men would probably have burned
to the ground. Only slight
damage however was done.

Another Tiger Turned AIoose.

Charlotte Clay, a negro woman
residing in the northern part of
Columbus, who on Tuesday, July
II. was mistried by jury before
Justice of the Peace Beverly
Matthews, was retired Monday
and turned aloose. The woman
was charged with unlawful re-
failing and at both trials it was
clearly shown that she was
mixed up in the offense, but on
account of the jurymen not
agreeing as to her guilt she was
freed.

tions. This tour was to acquaint
the members with the extent
and scope of their work and the
magnitude of the responsibility
which rests upon their shoulders.
1t is understood that some nota-
bic reforms will be formulated
before the next sessions begin.
jackson has solved the prob
lem of negro women vagrants.
Instead of allowing them to lie
idle in jail, to be fed at the ex-
pense of the city while serving
sentences, a calico gang" has
been organized and the women
forced to pull up weeds about the
streets.
Biloxi has recently become
aroused at the extent of the
blind tiger" evil within its
limits and employed Pinkerton
detectives to unearth the viola
tors of the prohibition law.
Fourteen arrests were made and
convictions secured in every
case, fines of 500 and costs
being imposed on each offender,
with warning thrown in for
good measure.
Governor Noel has put a curb
on the state institutions that
have been in the habit of draw
ing money from the state treas
ury in greater amounts than in
mediate needs justified. Several
thousand dollars interest will
accrue to the state each year by
this reform.
Capt. j. F. Merry is making
an urgent request of Mississippi
agriculturists and manufacturers
to have a creditable showing at
the Ohio Valley exposition to be
held in Cincinnati beginning
August %. He pledges the ac-
tive cooperation of the Illineis
Central Railroad, of which he is
the immigration agent, in trans
porting exhibits to and from the
big show.
The international Training
School of Sunday School Workers
of the third international dis
trict, which comprises the states
of Mississippi, Alabama, Tennes-
see, Georgia, Florida and the
Carolinas, is to meet at the
Monteagle, Tenn, assembly
grounds July 31-August z. An
attractive program insures the
success of the great gathering.
Announcement is made that a
Touring mill will be established
in Lexington, Miss, in the near
future, and the news is received
with interest throughout the
state. Good men are behind the
movement and a sufficient acre
age in wheat will be planted
within a radius of fifteen or
twenty miles to justify the ven
ture.
