CAUGHT MONSTER GAR.

Thomas @. Pringle, while fishing
with George Dohr in Deer creek,
near Mount Sterling recently, pulled
out a monster gar three feet long.
Mr.. Pringle slashed off the head
from the long, snakelike body. and
preserved it, as it is a decided curl
osity, gar of that length not hav-
ing been taken on a hook in that vi
cinity for years.
The cruel jaws with the needle
like teeth are about four inches long
and the coloring Of the head is most
beautiful. 1t is a light gray or sill
yer and is handsomely tinted with
purple slashes throughout Column

A TREE THAT WEEPs.

During the driest months Of the
Rhodesian year-August. September
and October tree called by the
natives Mukololo cxudes moisture in
large drops from its topmost leaves
and gives the traveller who happens
to be standing in the immediate vi
cinity the impression that shower
of rain is falling. When the natives
see one Of these trees dripping they
say: "The mukololo is weeping for
rain" Even during the hottest day
the tree weeps copiously.

THE STANDARD OIL DECISION.

The reciprocity agreement and
free list" bill of the democrats,
have for the time at least, stepped
out of the lime light and public at
tention has been riveted on the
Standard Oil case which has occu-
pied the whole stage since the
United States supreme court an
nounced its decision last week.
The decision was concurred in by
eight of the nine justices, who by
this decision have read into the
Sherman law the word "unreason-
able The vital portion of the act
will now read as follows.
Every contract, combination in
the form Of trust or otherwise, or
conspiracy, in unreasonable re-
straint of trade or commerce among
the several states, or with foreign
natlons, is hereby declared to be IL
legal"
The decision is hailed by the ma
jority as both just and great, but
by many others. including the ven
cradle Justice Harlan, as working
a complete notification of the law.
The decision is based upon the be-
lief that congress intended the law
to apply only to undue restraint Of
trade, whereas Justice Harlan says
that congress knew what it was
saying and meant what it said
when it provided that every con-
tract in restraint of trade is hereby
declared to be illegal"

Flagrant Use of Money.

The Pass Christian Beacon we'll says:
Somehow or other it seems that money
has gotten closely mixed with Missis-
sippi politics since the secret caucus.
Nearly every day, in some part or other
of the state, some of the opposition to
the opposition to Vardaman is reported
as offering all kinds of money for Joint
debates and other wagers. Where is
all this money coming from, and why
should it be made to play such promi-
nent part in the senatorial race? Such
wagering of sums of money was never
heard of in this state before. Some one
must feel that money can accomplish
all ends, but this is not SO; for, while it
can do an alarming amount of corrupt
ing, it has never yet purchased the con-
victions of an honest man, and Mis-
sissippi is blessed with too many such
men for the bribers to ever secure per-
manent lodgment within her bounds"

ALEXANDER AT CAESAR YESTERDAY.
Spoke to Large Crowd in Hancock County OF
Campaign Issues.

CARRERE, Miss. June 30.-This be-
ing the occasion of the annual picnic
and barbecue at Caesar, Hancock coun-
ty, eight miles east of this place, a
crowd of 1000 to 1880 people assem-
bled. The early hours we're spent in
speeches by candidates for local offices.
Hon. C. A. Alexander, candidate for
the United States Senate, spoke from
Ii to 1880 P. M. He said that he was
accused of being candidate in the in
terest of another man, but denied that,
saying that he was out for Alexander
and for no one else. He said that ex-
Governor Vardaman's headquarters at
Jackson during the secret caucus was a
place where liquors were used, and also
said that Vardaman gave champagne
supper on one occasion. Whom he al
luded to Vardaman misappropriating
the funds in his hands the crowd cheer
ed for Vardaman..
Mr.. Alexander left at l o'clock for
Picayune, where he was billed to speak
at $3.50 O'Clock this evening. This is
Vardaman and Bilbo stronghold, but
Mr.. Alexander had a respectful hearing.
The next speaker was Senator 7. G.
Bilbo. who spoke about two hours on
the usual lines. Many times he was in
terrupted by long applause. The crowd
was with him from start to finish of his
speech. Senator Bilbo was with his
friends, kin folk and acquai ntances.
The best of order prevailed throughout
the day.

Muddying the Waters.

Don't let 'em pull the wool over your
eyes, Mr.. Voter. Did you know that
all these charges against Vardaman
have been brought up since or during
the secret caucus? Did you know that
Vardaman had been out of the COVER
nor's office three years before he was
accused of having misappropriated the
contingent fund |? If Vardaman stole
that money, why not appeal to jury
of his peers instead of to the swill bar
rell? It's all just piece of political
trickery. They are trying to muddy
the waters and escape themselvee dur
ing the confusion. The "common eau
sers'' made no charges against Varda-
man until after their own deviltry in
the secret caucus was exposed. Is
not this significant ?-Kosciusko Star
Ledger.

THE STORY OF THE MAINE.

!, Will the mystery OF the Maine eve
be solved? OF, sill the sea forever holt
the secret?
It is a question that none seem able
to answer, and, as the waters receds
and the battered and bent remains O.
the once great battleship are exposed tc
view, the mystery deepens.
| Possibly it is best that it should be so
Possibly, now that the. war with Spain
is over and the two nations are at peace
once more, it is best that there should
be no further controversy. Spain still
contends that the wreck of the Main
was caused by an interior explosion,
while the court of inquiry decided that
it was the result of a mine or torpedo
fired from the outside. When the navy
department began the work of raising
the Maine it was conceded that the
secret of the explosion would be finally
| determined and an end would be put to
the existing doubts. The sea is relent-
| less, however. and it refuses to disclose
the secret.
There has been growing doubt for
some time in the political centers of
the world in regard to the sinking of the
Maine. War with Spain was inevitable,
whether the Maine had been destroyed
or not. The strained relations in Cuba,
the threatening attitude of Spain to-
ward this country and the general feel
ing which existed at the time all con-
tributed to the war which followed.
The destruction of the Maine wa.
merely an incident.
With each days report from Havana,
telling of the reduction of the water
level in the cofferdam that surrounds
the wreck, the mystery seems to
deepen. The story that the receding
waters tell is not one to enlighten peo-
pie, but rather tend to add perplexity
to problem which will, no doubt, never
be solved. There have been no bodies
recovered. The waters of the sea have
fully done their work. Many of the
brave men who lost their lives will still
sleep in the sands of the harbor.
The theory first advanced when the
explosion occurred was that the armor
plate had been forced inward, indicat-
ing to the lay mind that the battleship
had been purposely blown up. AS time
went On, experts figured out that the
natural tendency of the metal hull
would be outward in the case of an ex-
terror explosion.
Now that the barnacle-encrusted hull
is being exposed to yieW,s ii becomes
more and more evident that time and
the action of the sea have destroyed
conclusive proof. The mystery will re-
main mystery unsolved and unanswer-
able.
1t is, no doubt, gruesome sight, this
gradual exposure of wreck so long
hidden from view. The coral-covered
skeletons, the shreds of decayed uni
forms, the remnants of side arms, the
thin and dangerous decks all tell their
sad story of the Maine.

Tally's Speech at Meridian.

Hon. J. R. Tally's speech before the
Vardaman Club at the court house the
other night was masterpiece that was
as effective as it was pointed; polished
and finished, it was clean. There was

LITIGATION or abuse of anybody, de-
lightful and refreshing contrast to some
of the TRADES that are heard from tn {
opposition sources during the current
campaign, and how it was appreciated
by his audience, was told in the fre-
quent and generous applause with which
he was often interrupted.-Thc Missis-

Maine in "Dry" Column.

Augusta, Me-, Nov. 9.-Maine re-
tains constitutional prohibition.
Gov. Plaisted and his council late
Monday night decided to accept the
corrections in the vote of four towns
cast in the special election in Sep.
TENDER, thus reversing the result.
Returns on election day, Sept. IL,
indicated a majority of about 900
for the amendment but later the Of
fetal count showed majority OF 26
for repeal.
1t Was found by comparison how
ever, that in four cases the figures of
the town clerks we're reversed from
their early returns, and in each case
the clerks claimed the error to be in
the official figures. After hearings
on the subject the Governor and
council took the matter under con-
sideratiou, and the result was the
announcement Monday night that
Maine retained constitutional prohi-
bition by 75S votes.
