A Trade Excursion Comma.

A special train of three sleepers, a
dining car, an observation car and a
baggage car, will leave st. Louis Sum-
day night, November 5, for a tour
through Tennessee, Alabama and Mis-
sissippi. On the train will be about
eighty men, representing the largest
wholesale and manufacturing houses in
st. Louis. These men are members of
the St. Louis Sales Managers Associ-
alton and their trip is so arranged as to
permit them to make more or less brief
stops at thirty-four of the cities and
towns along the l.. G. N, Southern and
Illinois Central lines.
The trip is trade extension excur-
sion Of these eighty men to put them
into closer touch with the retail and
jobbing interests of the South and is
one of two similar trips made annually
By the Sales Managers Association.
A band of fifteen pieces will be along
| to play concerts at the hotels at the
night stops and to escort the St. Louis
ans into the business districts of the
towns where the stops are shorter.
The personnel of the party is made
up from nearly every important busi-
ness in st. Louis. There are six banks
represented, five of the big wholesale
dry goods houses, as many of the shoe
manufacturers and one to three or four
from almosl all of the other important
business interests of the st. Louis mar
ket. This is not selling trip, but a
serious visit of lot of serious busi-
ness men to the retailers and jobbers
of the South, to get into closer and
warmer business touch with them.
There will be no attempt at order ta-
king or at selling goods. Handshaking
will be the rule.
The secretary of the St. Louis Sales
Managers Association writes the Sem
tinel that the above party of St. Louis
ans will reach Grenada Friday, Nov.
10, at 3 p, M, and will remain one
hour. Let Grenada give these people a
cordial greeting and the proper well
come. The Sentinel feels sure this will
be done.

George Hardgrave appeared before

said that he had put In his own side

for 1t by the city. His case was re-
ferred to the aldermen of the seventh
ward to report at a future meeting
of the council.
The mayor opened the meeting by
speaking of city finances and the
budget. He requested the councilmen
to use their best business Judgment
and discretion along the line Of ex-
penses. The park board and the
school board making heavier expendi-
lures this year than last, makes the
city load bigger and the mayor sug-
gested that with these things In view
the aldermen would cut out ex-
penditures whenever possible to do So.
The report of DR.. ]. w. Durham.
city milk and meat inspector, was
rather interesting. He had tested
eight cows and condemned one as
tubercular. Furthermore the u. S.
inspector had condemned three cows
and he had supervised the slaughter

made twenty eight tests Of milk and
found them all pure.
