WHERE MANIT0U SPEAKS

A familiar landmark near Haydn.
Wis, is the old Council Elm" that
stands at a bend in the Manitowoc
river q short distance below Hayton.
The Pottawotomie Indians who once
occupied this region regarded the tree
with awe and veneration, believing It
endowed with special attributes BY
the Manitou or Great Spirit. Under
its shade all important councils Of the
tribe took place. As q meeting place
for representatives OF the different
northwestern tribes who wished to en-
ter the Pottawotomie territory, It
must have Witnessed some strange
scenes. Each spring and fall all the
Pottawotomie clans ere wont to
gather at the spacious camping ground
near the tree. For days the beating
Of drums, the chanting Of barbaric
songs and fantastic dances occupied
the attention Of the savages. Among
the many Indian legends concerning
the tree one Of the few that has sur
vived Is to the effect that the Manitou
speaks to his people in the rustic OF
its leaves and the sigh Of the winter
wind through the bare branches.

NOEL CALLS EXTRA SESSION

pense of National Guard Also

Jackson.-Gov. 4. +. Noel late Thurs.
day afternoon issued a proclamation
calling the legislature into cxtraordi.
nary session and naming Wednesday,
November 1, 1911, as the date of o n
vening.
The provision of the constitution un-
der which the call is issued provides that
nothing IAN be considered at the session
except those matters for which it is
called, and Others that may be brought
TO its attention during its sitting by the
governor in a written communication, ex-
cept impeachment proceedings and inves-
tigaton of state officers. There is no
probability Of any impeachment proceed.
ings, hut il is rumored the legislature
may take a notion to do some invcsti.
eating Of state officers, and in that event
the session may be extended for several
weeks.
The bonds mentioned in the proclama-
ton we're issued at the last session OF
the legislature, amounting to 5000, 900.
Tho governor had some trouble in dis
posing Of them, they bearing date of
July 1, 1910, but some were not sold I'M
til December of the same year. They
were sold with the understanding that
they were to bear interest from July 1,
but thc supreme court of the state de-
cided that this could not be done. The
session is called to make appropriation
for the difference in interest accruing
between the first of July and the actual
date Of their purchase. The proclama-
ton follows:
Whereas, in my judgment, the public
interest requires that the legislature
shall be convened in extraordinary SEES
sion:
Therefore, I, Edmund +. Noel, gov
trnor Of the state of Mississippi, do
hereby issue this my proclamation to
convene the legislature of the state of
Mississippi in extraordinary session and
designate Wednesday, November l, 1911,

B~eardsley, engineer on q freight train.
saw what seemed to be q blue parcel
lying between the rails about twenty
car lengths ahead. But It turned out
to be a child, who arose and sat down
on one OF the rails. The emergency
brake was applied. but It was impos.
sible to stop in time. Beardsley ran
out on the pilot, intending to pick the
child up. He reached the pilot too
late. but had time to extend his foot
and kick the child on the rail- and
down the embankment. The train was
stopped. the child picked up and
brought back to Dent. A doctor was
summoned and It was found that the
child was unhurt except that 1t had
a bruise where the engineers shoe
had struck it.

Weevils Do Not Hibernate in Stalks Of
Cotton, But Lay Eggs in Seed.
Jacksonville statement of r. G.
Cole, a Simpson county farmer that he
had discovered the secret of the hiberna-
ton of the boil weevil, and that it does
not hibernate to any great extent, but
perpetuates the species by laying eggs in
the cotton seed, and that the eggs hatch
at the time the seed sprout, and the
young weevil lives on the tender root
juices until it energies and begins on
the top or crown buds of the plant, Gre
ated . great deal Of interest among cot,
ton men here.
If Mr.. Cole is correct in his conclu.
sions, based upon hie study of the wee
vii, the department of agriculture will
have to rearrange its entire method of
lighting the pest-and Mr.. Cole had q
sack full Of the infected cotton seed to
show that he knew what he was talking
about. Each seed had an egg in it.

SOUTHERN POINT OF NATION

The most southern point Of main
land territory in the United States Is
on a sharp bend OF the Rio Grande
river about 20 miles southwest OF
Brownsville. The government official
survey shows that its latitude Is rs
degrees and 9 minutes. which places It
below the most southern part Of the
peninsula Of Florida. but not as far
south as Key West. The spot IL
marked by a group OF picturesque
Mexican ranch buildings with their
matched roofs. Growing upon the
land are groves Of wild palm trees
which lend to the beauty Of the trop-
ical scene. The distance between
Brownsville and the mouth OF the Rio
Grande In a direct line is approximate
ly ~ miles. but the river has so many
curvatures that its course between the
two points covers 10 miles, accord
Ing to the survey Of the international
boundary commission. which is com.
posed Of the representatives Of the
United States and Mexican govern
ments. Before the river empties into
the gulf It makes a sharp bend to
the south. and this rounded peninsula
forms the most southern mainland Of
the country. Most OF the territory
between Brownsville and the Rio
Grande's mouth Is covered by a dense
wilderness of chaparral. The soil is
OF primitive richness, caused by the
periodical deposits of silt from the
streams overflow. Owing to the In
accessibility Of the little Mexican
ranch. which holds the distinction OF
marking the most southern spot, the
place has been visited by very few
Americans.

PLAN TO BOOST SOUTH.
Finley and Curan Participate in Con-
ference at Meridian.

Finley and Curran Participate in Con-
ference at Meridian.
Meridian.-There was q meeting in
the office of Cliff Williams, general man
ager of the MississipPi-Alabama Fair,
President w. w. Finlay, of the South
ern Railway, President D. D. Curran, OF
the New Orleans and Northeastern, and
other railroad men and prominent lead
ing agriculturists. The purpose Of the
meeting was intended to open the eyes
of the railroad men to the possibilities
OF the South, especially Mississippi, in
an agricultural way.
The meeting had been arranged by
Mr.. Williams for the purpose of showing
the railroad officials what had already
been accomplished and what the future
held in store for Mississippi.
Messrs. Finlay and Curran and the
others were intent listeners and the
first mentioned gentleman asked many
questions that showed he was fully alive
to the Importance Of the matters
brought before them.
The discussion wal led by Fl. B. Cur
Ter, OF Macon, a gentleman who until
three years or so ago had lived in Illi-
nois and had attained fame by being
selected by the government experts to
send a display Of dairy products to the
great Paris (France) exposition in 1000.
Mr.. Gurler gave his views of the
prairie lands of Northern Mississippi
and went into the question of hog rails
ing quite extensively. He declared hogs
could be raised much more cheaply in
Mississippi than they could be raised
in Illinois because of the fact that they
could range longer--in fact, there was
no necessity for keeping them penned
up for any great period at any time of
the year, as was the case in the North
ern states.
Mr.. Gurler was followed by Prof.
Beeson, OF Beeson College, who talked
ent~ertainingly and well Of the possibil.
tiles of tho poultry business in the South
and gave some apt Illustrations Of suc
cess along that line.

SEEK EXECUTIVE CLEMENCY.
Bigamist, Murderer and Thief Want
Pardons.

Jackson.-Gov. Noel has been petit
toned 10 pardon Charles Ennis, con.
victed at the September, 1911, term of
Jefferson county Of bigamy. Petition al
leges he thought his wife had gotten a
divorce, as he had been served with
m and heard nothing further,
and when he married again he did so
in good faith, believing his first wife
had released him.
William Holman was convicted at the
August, 1908, term of Winston county
court for the murder of King Triplett,
sets up as reason for pardon that he is
in the last stages of consumption, and
the provocation to kill was great.
Isaiah Hunter, of Wilkinson county,
serving two years for grand larceny,
has served most of his sentence, and
wants a pardon on general principles, be-
ing sufficiently punished and having
made a good prisoner.
