Improvement in the security mar kets began with tn eNew York re- publican convention which sarrend- cred to Roosevelt. Instantly the quiet report went through Wall Street. Buy stocks. Roosevelt Is now at the head of the republican party in New York and we win bury Roose- welt and the element he represents in the coming eleition."
 Some weird tales are being told of Roosevelt actions that do not jlbe with strenuous preaching of high moral ideals and a strict interpreta- tion ef the moral code. Bankers are asking whether Roosevelt actually did perjure himself in order to be elected governor of New York. Defi- mite statements are made that doc umentary evidence of the swearing off of tayes by the ex-President be cause he was no longer a citizen of New York has been discovered. IL had been supposed that Platt and Croker had seen to the effectual dis appearance of such discomforting eslucuCcs
 Wal Street is telling strange sto- ries. too. of lavish entertainment bills contracted by the ex-President which the railroads were obliged to settle whenever the Chief Executive elected to travel abroad. The figures men tioned run so large as to seem al- most incredible-incredible in fact as did the supine and cowardly atti- tude of the railroads in submitting to such exactions.
 There are no party lines in New York's financial district The old termino,ogy means nothing. Wall Street is ss.9 per cent anti-Roose- welt and there is no reason to doubt that 1t is backing it's sentiments with the cash that will give Candidate Dix the means to carry on an aggressive campaign.

lower than they have been in a long time past.
 One producer says consumers are just awakening to the fact that pro duction is to be limited to consump- tion and are anxious to cover their re- quirements at the current prices.
 Prices for copper have been ad vancing abroad for the last week and sales for export have been large. Shipments of copger to Europe last month were the largest in years. but notwithstanding this. foreign stocks continue on the decline. As an ex- ample. figures today showed a fur ther contraction of close to 5,o0o, 900 pounds over the last two weeks.
 Until a short time ago consumers bought for immediate requirement.. only; but they are now convinced that producers in this country and abroad are determined to curtai, out put to the extent of 15 per cent.
 One copper producer holds that within the next two. weeks copper will be selling above 13 cents a pound The United Metals Selling Co. is not anxious to to sell the metal at IF 3-f cents pound. and an advance to .127-s cents pound vill likely be made before the close os the current week

aspire to the senatorship, none Of
them took advantage of our new pri-
mary law to go before the voters as
they might have done.
1T is due to the general belief that,
in the present unusual situation In
Ohio, an attempt to settle the senator
ship in advance would increase the
risk of having no senatorship to set
tie.
Mr.. Bryan's opinion is always en-
titled to the greatest respect, but am
confident that his long absence has
made him unfamiliar with the present
conditions in Ohio and that if he
knew them, as they are known here,
he would see the good policy of omit
ting the senatorship from considere-
ton by the convention"

DISRSTROUS fire
EARLY TODAY
Residence on Court Street Occupied
by Mrs. Thomas Foote and Fami-

At about o'clock this morning fire
was discovered in a building belong
ing to Mrs. Derrickson, situated on
Court street, and occupied by Mr..
Thomas Foote and family, and some
of the occupants of the family had
narrow escapes from death.
The origin of the fire is not known,
but it evidently started, it is said,
in the attick, between the ceiling and
roof, and had been burning for some
time before it was discovered. Mr..
Foote, together with his family, were
sleeping in the upstairs apartments,
and before they awakened the flames
had practically covered the ceiling
and had broken through the roof.

ENORMOUS WASTE
OF CITY WATER
Estimated That Three Quarters of a
Million Dollars are Wasted Daily
BY Hattiesburg Citizens.

1t is stated on reliable authority
that there is wasted in Hattiesburg
every twenty-four hours three-quar-
tiers of a million gallons of city water,
while the actual consumption will not
exceed 25O,O00 gallons during the
twenty-four hour period.
plants are now drawing their full ca
pacity of water, which is one million
gallons per day. One of the city
wells has already been exhausted. it
is stated, and it is not improbable
that, unless the enormous waste is
stopped, the city will be compelled
to go to Bowie river for it's water sup
ply within the not far distant future.
1t has been suggested that the
leakage might be remedied by inau-
gurating the meter system A recent
test made by Superintendent Vain
wright, of the Water Works, showed
that certain business concern in the
! city consumed in one month more
than 100000 gallons of water, which,
If charged at the lowest possible
meter rate, would have cost several
times as much as the fiat rate, which
is now being charged.
1t is thought very probable that the
city council will take the proper steps
to correct this condition at its next
meeting.

Sad Sequel to a Meeting In the Days

Sad sequel TO meeting IN the Days
When Middies Fought.
One of the most pathetic duels in
the early history of the American navy
was that between two young midship-
men whose names are not given in the
record, according to recent writer.
Their ship was in the Malayan wa
tiers. One hot night they quarreled
over the question of leaving open the
scuttle The dispute was finally set
tied amicably by the exchange of cots
A superior officer who had overheard
their heated words made it plain to
one of the midshipmen that he would
have to "call out" his friend if he
wished to retain the respect Of his
friends. To avoid ostracism and to
conform to the standard of honor i'm
posed by his superiors the unwilling
midshipman challenged.
The meeting occurred on the sea-
shore. He wrote of it afterward as
follows: upon the signal we both
fired. l found myself wounded and
was about to lean upon my seconds
arm when l perceived my opponent
fall upon the sand. My own wound
was in the fieshy part of the thigh. 1t

kneeling down by his side. I implored
his forgiveness, which he instantly
granted.
MY despair at his fate knew no

murder, upbraided with the bitterest
reproaches those who had urged me
to send the challenge. For weeks after

nent. whose greatest joy was to antici-

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY.

Don't waste your time in longing
For bright impossible things;
Don't sit supiuely yearning
For the swiftness Of angels wings,
Don't spurn to he a rushlight,
Because you are not a star;
But brighten some bit Of darkness
ny shining just where you are.
There is need of the tiniest candle,
As well as the garish sun;
The humblest deed is ennobled
When it is worthily done;
You may never be called to brighten
The darkened regions afar,
So fill, for the day, Your mission
BY shining just where you are.
