Billiards VS.. S. S. c.

In their first game since the school
session began the newly organized first
nine of the st. Stanislaus College went
down in defeat before the fast billiard
team of this city on the first of the
week. The good team work of the Dill
lards, their hard hitting in the third
and seventh innings, and the inability
of the Collegians to get more than two
safe bingles from Luc, are the principal
factors in having the score appear 8 to
2 in favor of the Bay ST. Louisans at
the end of the ninth.
The game was an interesting one
from beginning to end, but it was noted
that the college boys did not work to-
gether as did their opponents, but it
must be considered that this is the first
game they have played together, and,
no doubt, after few games more, they
will make different showing; for there
is plenty of good material, commodity
essential to success, among the boys
this session. A very noteworthy and
pleasing feature of the game was the
absence of unnecessary delays and
wrangling.
The features of the game were: the
pitching of Luc, who struck out twelve
batters, walked none and allowed only
two hits, and the hard hitting of Tom
Monti, who got two 2-baggers and two
singles out of four times at bat. Sum-
mers, in center field, made pretty
catch of line-drive by Toups in the
fifth inning.

MISS PLUNKETT'S CANDIDACY FOR LIBRA
RIAN.

Miss Matte Plunkett, present State
Librarian, has been making a partial
tour of the Southern portion OF the
State recently in the interest OF her
candidacy for re-appointment by the
incoming Legislature next January.
On the occasion of this visit, as on
other occasions, the press has been say
ing complimentary things about Miss
Plunkett. Of the number Of newspaper
mentions we herewith reproduce two
each one from opposite sides OF this
portion of the State.
The Pascagoula Chronicle says: Miss
Matte Plunkett, of Jackson, Miss,
formerly of Leake county, present
State Librarian, was visitor to our
city Saturday last in the interest OF her
candidacy for reelection to the office.
Miss Plunkett is one of the States
most cultured ladies and has received
universal Endorsement. This position
requires person of more than ordinary
experience and learning, and Miss
Plunkett, because OF her long service,
is well equipped for the position.
The Poplarville Free Press says:
Miss Matte Plunkett, State Librarian,
was visitor here Friday in the in
terest of her candidacy to succeed her
self. Miss Plunkett has held the position
about twelve years, and has proven
to be very efficient in the discharge
of her duties. She is well known
throughout the State, is a pleasant
conversationalist and is making can
vass of the State preparatory for the
fight before the Legislature against
several opponents.
Miss Plunkett has been received
everywhere with uniform consideration
in regard to her candidacy, and the
Legislators of the different counties
already visited have given her such
encouragement as to make her success
a foregone conclusion. The position
lcalls for especial ability and qualifica-

tons, all of which the lady is fully
equipped to carry out, and by reason
of her experience, in addition to her
ability, these give her start so far
ahead in the race that it looks to an
"onlooker in Venice" that "there amt
goin' to be any second".

1t is learned on good authority that
movement is being quietly placed on
foot to start an agitation for the repeal
OF the statewide prohibition law at the
approaching session of the legislature.
Those who are in a position to give
details of the movement decline to do
so, but it can be accepted as a fact
beyond ali dispute that bill will be
introduced seeking the repeal of the
statutory prohibition law, and return
to the local option system.
The -prohibitionists feel much
encouraged over recent election results
IN Alabama, Texas and Maine, and as
sert with much confidence that public
sentiment in Mississippi is also under
going change on this subject.
The liquor question did not cut any
figure in the recent State primary. 1t
was not an issue in any county, and
apparently the belief did not prevail
in any section that there would be
likelihood of a fight at the approach
ing Legislative session.
The prohibition forces, of course,
will Immediately get in readiness for
the fray, and prominent leaders in
Jackson declare that there is no like
lihood OF the repeal of the statutory
measure; that the legislature would
not dare to fly in the face of public
opinion on the subject.
Governor-elect Brewer is unreservedly
committed to the present Statewide
law and its rigid enforcement. He gave
an unequivocal pledge to this effect to
the Mississippi w. G. T. U. shortly be-
fore his nomination, and there is no
reason to believe that he will change
his mind on the subject.
The i-Prohibitionists, it is claimed,
want the matter submitted to the peo-
pie, and in event of failure to secure
direct appeal by the Legislature,
which is, of course, more than likely,
they will then make fight to have
the questions submitted to the people
at special elections held simultaneously
with the Congressional primary next
year.
In fact, the main hope of the anti
Prohibs is to get an election, and few of
them entertain any idea that the Legis-
lature would directly repeal the exist
ing statutes.
On the other hand, the Prohibition
lists can be expected to assume an ag-
gressive attitude at the very beginning
of the fight, and make an insistant de-
mand for submission to the people of
an amendment to the organic law pro-
viding for constitutional prohibition.
This is the declared policy of the Wo-
mans Christian Temperance Union,
and will doubtless be adopted by other
temperance organizations.
Unlike other Southern States. the
adoption OF Statewide prohibition in
Mississippi was not sudden reform
movement. 1t resulted from steady in
roads on the open saloons through the
waging of local option campaigns, un-
til, at the time the statutory law was
enacted, only six counties IN the State
had open saloons.

Barley Culture Pays in Wisconsin.

The Wisconsin barley crop COM
prises about one-eight of all the
barley grown in the United States or
pproximately %, 900, 900 bushels an
nually,' states Prof. 4. A. Moore in
Bulletin 212, Barley Culture in Wis
consin, recently issued by the agrl-
cultural experiment station Of the
University of Wisconsin. The main
barley growing section IS in south
and eastern Wisconsin, in Dodge,
Washington, Ozankee, Fond du Lac,
Sheboygan, Manitowoc and Calumet
counties. However. the barley grow
ing are being extended and several
western counties are producing con-
siderable amounts.
The classes Of barley which have
proved the best yielders in Wisconsin
have been six-rowed varieties known
as Oderbrucker, Manshury, Silver
King, and Golden Queen. The new
Wisconsin pedigree varieties have
demonstrated their superior value by
returning higher average yields than
the other sorts. The result of 10 years
Of barley experiments at this station
has been the breeding and selection Of
a few reliable varities to be multi
piled in quantity for dissemination of
barley to most of the growers of the
state has been made possible through
CO operation with the members of the
Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment
Association over 1900 Of whom are
growing barley and selling seeds Of
improved quality to their neighbour
ing farmers. Tests by these growers
have shown that the pedigree varities
are much superior in yield and
quality to the common varities grown
in the community.
The culture of barley needs to be
improved along with the use Of better
seed. Careful seed testing following
by sowing on we'll prepared soil
will aid in securing great yields.
Treatment of seed barley for smut by
the hot water method has proved
effective in keeping down losses from
this cause. If this method is regu lar
~ practiced there will pe no serious
losses from smut.

YOUTH HANGS HIMSELF.
1t is Not Thought That Act Was Preme-
ditated but Accidental.

Word was received in Lancaster
Tuesday evening Of the sad death of
Roy Hodoyal, the thirteen year old
son of George Hodoval who lives near
Hurricane The death was to all ap
pearances a suicide but an investi
cation showed convincingly that this
was probably not the case. Late in
the afternoon the boy was found dead
in the barn his neck in the loop of
strap which had been hanging on a
door post for some ii me. His hands
and feet where both touching the floor.
The lower end of the strap was
only about three feet above the floor
and the loop was about eight inches
in diameter and not tight about the
boy neck.
Beyond the nature of his death
there is no reason to believe the hang
ing was Intentional or premeditated.
Roy had commented several times up
on the strange suicide of William
Bennett and had wondered whether
the latter suffered long before death
resulted. This did not suggest to his
hearers anything more than boylike
curiosity 1t is believed that he was
merely xperimenting with the strap
to satisfy himself as to how long a
person could endure torture of this
kind. Before be could release himself
he probably tainted and death result
ed
He was of happy disposition and the
day of his death, especially, was in a
cheerful buoyant mood. A coroner $
inquest was not thought necessary
when the facts of his death became
known.
Roy is survived by a father mother
and three sisters.
Funeral services were held from the
home Friday. Interment followed at
at Hurricane cemetery.
