The Comet.

Many people In this section view
the comet which Is visible each
evening a little after six O'Clock
Just above the horizon in the south
west. Though rather poor ex-
cuse, yet it is a comet (; and as
comets visits are rather rare, even
this one is attracting attention.
Scientists say 1t was first discov-
cred at the observatory in South
Africa. They also say they are
unable to place the celestial visitor,
declaring that it can In no way be
confused with HaIley's Comet.
However, this does not concernus
much.
But a little later we e-promised
a real comet with long tail, the
kind we used to delight in when
boys. 1t Is said that it may appear
quite soon aud remain with us
about four months. This comet is
going to be SO. big. these scientists
tell us; we may become frightened.
They say,-Aowever, that nothing Is
going to happen and there is real
ly not cause for fear.

Too Much Sport.

| Mr.. Thomas Taggart, the vel
known Indiana politician who pre-
sides over the destinies of French
Lick Springs, though better known
as chairman of the Democratic ma.
tional executive committee, was
accidentally shot by a companion
while hunting near Fayette Friday.
Mr.. Taggart was pretty badly pep
pered all over the face and upper
portion of the body and will proba-
bly, lose an eye. Though full of
shot, he was game, laughing and
chatting with friends after the ac-
cident had occurred. The following
day he left for his home where the
shot will be removed.
Mr.. Taggart has been unfortu-
nate In the south. About six years
ago his daughter was drowned iu
the Gulf of Mexico while on an
excursion with party of friends.
1t was thought that the launch In

Fine Burial Equlpage.

Levy & Welsch Co. has just re-
ceived some very fine equipment
for directing funerals. The lot
consists of two magnificent hearses,
a dead wagon and an undertaken S
buggy. One hearse is unusually
fine, being of imitation rosewood
with heavy drapery, superb trim
mings and upholstering and rubber
tires. The other, while not quite
so expensive, is fine and attractive
in appearance. These vehicles
would do justice to a city many
times the size of Port Gibson.

SHIPPING CABBAGE,
Profitable Business. Large A.
mount of Truck and Peanuts
to be Grown.

Mr.. Moses Marx has shipped a.
bout 225 crates of cabbage and
realized good prices for them. MI
George Grifing of Martin has also
shipped number of crates for
which he got good prices
This business promises to be un-
usually large the coming season.
Already many acres of Irish pota-
toes have been planted, and there
will be many more. Besides po.
tatoes, there will be a large ac-
reage of peas, corn and other truck.
Peanuts also will be raised in the
county in large quantities. The
good prices obtained in other Sec
tions for peanuts last year caused
many of our farms to investigate as
to cost of cultivation and market
ing, with the result that they seem
fully satisfied a good profit can be
made on them.
Ifthis class of farming proves as
successful as it promises, many
of our farmers will be glad the
boil weevil forced them into other
things than cotton.

donvicts Increasing.


The records of the Mississippi
penitentiary show that during the
past five or six years there has been
a steady increase in the number oil
new convicts received each year,
the figures being as follows: In
1904 there were 368; in 1905, 32S;
in 1906, 500, in 1907, $50; In 1908
$40; in 1909, 523. 1t is safe to
predict that this year aud those to
come will show above 500 each,
and as great many of them are
long-termers, there is small pros
Pect that the prison popula-
tion will ever decrease. 1t is now
about 1900, and while the State
owns and farms OH about 20, 900
acres of land, the demand of the
trustees is for more land, and the
Legislature has been called on to
furnish it.
So far the trustees have been able
to keep the convicts employed all
their time, but all the wood land
that can be spared has been cleared
and convicts will be idle this year
unless more lands are procured.
The trustees demand at least 2, 900

The Boy Who is rIOst to be Pitied.

The Boy Who is rIost to be Pitied.
The very reading of the title sug-
gests the little fellow of the street,
who is knocked about and cufed
at the place he calls home, and is
dirty and unkempt and untaught.
Butts he the most to be pitied,
after all?
A successful business man was
talking frankly the other day to a
visitor. This business man had
accumulated money in abundance.
But he leaned over his desk a
weary, heart-heavy man. To the
visitor he frankly confded that his
older son had gone wild; and then
he said: J"And there is my other
boy, now sixteen. Only few days
ago friend warned me that this
boy was going with a wild crowd.
Whereupon / put down the names
of the boys he was going with, and
l find the crowd is made up of a
minister's son, a merchants son, a
physicians son-each man stand
ing at the very head of his group
IN the city. If those boys are not
fit chums for my boy, where on
earth will l find fit chumsl' And
the great body trembled and the
eyes filled with tears.
Mark it: This was not a gang
of friendless boys, but group of
wealthy boys. And two nights
later the same visitor sat in the
home of one of the boys mentioned.
The telephone bell rang, the boy
was called to the instrument, and
accepted an appointment to go to
the theatre with chum, who
should call for him in his automo-
bile. The boy was fifteen years
old. No word was offered to the
parents to tall them even of his
destination, and they asked for no
information aside from that they
heard from the telephone conver-
sation.
What a harvest there will be
from that sowingi A wealthy boy
of that type has not even fighting
chance to come out all right. Pity
the street boy we may, but, at
least, he early learns something of
the art of self-preservation, and it
often pulls him through. Not so
with the pampered wealthy boy.
Money buys his way everywhere
why should be be anxious about
the futureP If he wants anything,
he gets it. Can there be any more
mischievous preparation for life7
While the Church is awakening
to the needs of the boy on the
street, let us not forget the needs
of the wealthy mans son, when
that son is unwisely pampered and
spoiled. He, too, needs friend
that will savehim from his folly

What a Non-church-ooer Thinks
A. K. JONES.
Port Gibson, Miss. Ian. 20.

1
Editor Reveille:
|, a non-church goer, read with
great interest Rev. R. L. Benn's
paper, "Why more men do not at
tend Church" The distinguished
failed to give the true reason why
few men and few male communi.
cants go to church. The number
less secret societies have weaned
men away from Jesus Christ to a
Pantheism, a Deism aud Atheism.
The obligations the members take
to mere man is contrary to all
religious and moral principles; the
oaths administered to these men
defeat justice and destroy religion.
As soon as a Christian joins one of
these organizations be becomes
indifferent to religion and church
attendance.
Take d census every Sunday of
the number of men at services and
you will find that they do not give
allegiance to secret societies, and
you will find that those who do
that their religious nature is strong
er than that demanded by their
fraternal orders. Those who do
not attend church you can be sure
they are faithful in their devotion
to their respective mystic lodges.
One of the most alarming signs
of the decay of religion is the re.
movaI of the country church to the
towns and the indifference of the
farmers and their families to relig-
ious duties. The family prayers,
the grace at table and the reading
of the Holy Book have fallen from
the daily custom of our fathers.
The secret societies are taking the
place of the church in the country
and they permeate the home of
every male member of the farmers
household. The rural Inhabitants
are pressingly in need of spiritual
food from missionaries to bring the
gospel of Jesus Christ to their
doors.
If men were to obey the church
like they do human institutions,
attendance would increase. Then
the universal brotherhood of man
would be a reality instead of a
mask to war against our divine
nature. Go anywhere, and you
will find in city and town, village
and country that the secret socie-
ties with their rituals will sooner
or later oust the church unless
some militant churchman will save
souls to Christ, and check the en-
trance through Dante's Inferno,

behind" HOPE.

WHAT THE CHURCH
SHOULD STAND FOR

Before a gathering which overfiowed
the main room of the Baptist church
Sunday evening, Rev. Hargreaves
discussed Definite Things for Which
A Church Should Stand" The general
outline of the address follows:
Recognizing the natural tendency of
the soul to express itself God-ward,
the church should stand for worship.
1t should provide the opportunity for
the best possible expression of deep
soul feelings by such songs and gen
eral exercises as will interpret the
religious feeling of young and old.
The church must recognize, as a
basis for its existence, an independent
Spirit of Life with whom the indivi-
dual can have personal contact and
from whom he can receive help and
salvation. The Spirit of Life had it's
complete embodyment in Christ Jesus.
AS its history of religion has been a
history of continuous development of
the idea of God and His relation to
men, the church should be practically
hospitable to progressive revelation.
The only true definition of God will be
in the terms of our own experiences.
To teach in the languages and ac-
cording to the experiences of past
generation is often recommended as
''the Isafe procedure. Such use of
the term 'safe" calls to mind the rich
old farmer who was driving along a
stony road in an antiquated lumber
wagon with large hubs, narrow tires
and piece of fence board across the
box for seat. Being of hospitable
nature the old gentleman asked us to
ride and desiring company and little
life on our way We accepted. AS we
went humping along the road the
narrow tire first slipping with a jolt
from one stone and then another, we
ventured the more or less impertent
question, when you have as much
money as you have why in the world
do you not get road wagon which is
up-to-date?" The old man responded
in a brief statement, my friend,
this is safe" adding the further OBJ
servation, when you are in this
wagon you know you are riding" So
some Christians in their real loyalty
and devotion, have a tendency to think
that religion has its only embodyment
in expressions of the past. Such is
not necessarily the case, presenta-
tions of truth can be in harmony with
present day development and still
be safe and more fully appreciated
than when given according to the
experiences of past period.
The church as an institution based
upon the teachings and earth life of
Christ, must stand for the express
sions of practical sympathy. Failing
in this it misses one great purpose of
its existence. AS organized charity
in the form of hopsitals, etc., had its
birth in the Christian church, so such
should continue under its control be-
cause of the spirit Of sympathy which
should be connected Herewith. The
church should be able to meet in
its brotherly and secretive manner all
reasonable requests for aims. At this
important point we must acknowledge
at least a partial failure and this
causes US to think again, as one of our
delinquency of that misfortune which
consists in our present large number

WILL MAKE MONEY
THROUGH APPLES

After having been employed in MAX
ing real money in the United States
Mint in Philadelphia, for the past five
years, c. D. Hoyt has decided to
locate in Hood River and make money
which will be just as good for raising
the worlds best apples. Mr.. Hoyt
has bought the 40 acre place of Mrs.
Sarah E. Tousey in the Summit dis
trict through the agency of Devlin &
Firebaugh paying $4,000. The place
is nearly half of it in orchard part of
which is bearing fruit.
Mr.. Hoyt, whose home was formerly
in Cleveland, Ohio, has been here for a
month looking over the valley. Mrs.
Hoyt and two sons came out two
weeks ago and they have taken the
house on Front street formerly oc-
cupied by G. Y. Edwards and family.
The Hoyts will live in town this
winter and they expect to build a
modern house on their ranch in the
spring. George Kluz, who came out
with Mrs. HOyt, returned to his
home in Cleveland this week.

Went Around Mt. Hood.

Walter Ford and Bert Jayne re-
turned Friday from an extended camp
ing trip in the mountains about the
base of Mt. Hood. They spent
several days at Lost Lake and then
taking pack horses went out west and
south through the mountains to the
Sandy River Thence they followed a
trail to Government Camp west Of Mt.
Hood and from there they made the
ascent of the snow-capped peak. They
went up the mountain without a guide
and had some very thrilling exper-
fences. Young Ford took slide down
the glacier which might have resulted
in serious accident had he not been
able to stop after sliding about 100
yards. After the boys came down the
mountain, they went to Badger Lake
which is south and east of Mt. Hood,
returning home after spending few
days in that vicinity.

TWELVE TREES
YIELD 277 BOXES

Oscar Vanderbilt has twelve trees
of Gravensteln apples in his orchard
which are l2 years old this year from
which the yield of apples averaged
over % boxes to the tree the best
previous crop was Is boxes while the
harvest this year was ovre five times
as great. This count is of the boxes
as they came into the apple house
before packing and makes big
record. One tree of Gravensteins had
80 boxes on it. Mr.. Vanderbilt also
reports a remarkable yield from eight
trees of the Wealthy variety which
had LOG boxes this season. This was
more than four times the number
yielded four years ago and the trees
are s and years old.
Mr.. Vanderbilt had not noticed the
particularly large crop on the trees
Of the early varieties and last week he
left the ranch for couple of days
giving orders to gather the Craven
stems and Wealthies the day he left.
He was somwehat chagrined to find
the crop not all in when he returned
two days later, but was agreeably
surprised to find that he had about
three times as much fruit as he had
expected,
