Postmaster Collins and his efficient
corps of assistants are in high spirits
today over the announcement of the
arrival of the new furniture and fix
lures for the new postoffice building
which are being unloaded and placed
in shape today. Mr.. Collins has not
as yet received official notification
from the postal authorities in Wash
ington formally turning over the
building to him, but has written to
them asking that they do so at the
earliest possible moment On ac-
count of the rush and volume of bust
ness that is always present during
the holiday season. Manager Col
Inns was particularly anxious to get
into the new building before the busy
time commenced The clerks would
naturally be at a great disadvantage
should they move to the new building

The early morning hours were alive
with huntsmen, hound and horn, all
bent upon destroying the nimble
squirrel and the elusive bird. And
from the number who were out upon
this mission one who was not familiar
with the occasion would have thought
that a small army was being mobiliz-
ed for the purpose Of repelling an in
vading army. There are varied and
sundry reports from the hunters ;
some of them found a few squirrel
and a good many birds, but the day
was spent pleasantly anyway, and the
hunters were repaid if not in game
by being able to get out in the open
and commune for a time with ma
ture.
Some of the churches held special
Thanksgiving services during the
morning hours and We're well attend

pleasantly and as yet no casualties
have been reported from the over

if they do get an order from the au-

next two or three days they will re

that there are several small items Of

Jackson, Miss. Dec during his
visit 10 Washington next week Gov
ernor Noel viii confer with the heads
Of several departments relative to
Federal expenditures in this state
during the year 1912.
The Governor is especially anxious
to secure an enlargement of the work
o. the department of agriculture in
its campaign of education on co-ope-
rativo and demonstration farm work,
and of the bureau of animal industry
for the eradication of the cattle tick.
1t has been chiefly through his per
sstent efforts that the Federal gov
erpment is now spending many thous-
ands of dollars each year in the fur
therance of these two forms of agri
cultural enterprise.
Gov. Noel also desires to see q
larger appropriation or the work OF
the United States geological survey
in connection with the Mississippi
geological commission. Many counties
are clamoring for soil surveys, and
the Governor will recommend in his
biennial message that the Legislature
make an appropriation equal to any
sum that the Federal government will
set aside for work in this state.

st, Paul, March Ain spite of the

jury that Go. A. o. Eberhart set the
date for the hanging of Martin O'Mal-

poisoning his two step-children, the
Governor has steadfastly refused to
comply. He is awaiting action by the
legislature on the anti-capitol punish
ment bill, which already, partly
through the efforts of the state eX-

Gov. Eberhart does not believe in
hanging, even as punishment for MUIR

bending every effort TO have the SEN
ate pass the Mckenzie bill to abolish
the death penalty. He will then sign
the measure and will have O'Malley

TO TEACH CHINESE
GERMAN LANGUAGE

eBrlin, March 4.-German traders
in China, as well as a large number of
manufacturers and merchants here,
have been SO impressed by the SEEM
ing monopoly in the education of Chi
nese possessed by Great Britain and
the United States that they have start
ed a movement which will give Ger
many also a share in that education
and ultimately secure bigger portion
of the Chinese trade for the father
land. With this end in view, an agree
ment has been made among manufac.
| turers and others in Germany to raise
| about one-half million dollars for the
| establishment of school of German
| engineering, a sort Of pOlytehcnic
where German instructors will impart
information to Chinese pupils in the
various branches of technical know
| ledge.
| The scheme has been approved by
the minister of foreign affairs and the
minister of marine.
