PLANTED FOR ORNAMENT;
LADEN WITH PLUMS

Mr.. Jack Bradford, living about five
miles southeast of town, has in his
yard tree that is at this time heavi-
ly laden with plums, the popularity of
which is worthy of mention.
Several years ago he planted the
tree in his yard for ornamental pur-
poses. 1t was afterwards discovered
to be a fruit bearing tree and this
season it has an abundant crop of
plums, which have the appearance of
monster cherries Aside from the in
terest attaching to the popularity of
the fruit, another proof is thus given
that fruit of many kinds may be
grown in this section.

need FOR HOME
FOR INCURADLES
Strkingly Shown Since Opening Of
State Charity Hospital at
Jackson.
Special to The Net0s.

Jackson, Miss, June 5.-That there
is vital need for a home for incura-
bles in Mississippi has been striking
ly demonstrated since the opening of
the new State Charity Hospital in
this city last Saturday.
According to DR.. S. H. Mclean, sup
erintendent of the institution, the hos
pital is being deluged with applica-
lions for admission for incurables,
chronic invalids, and others who need
medical treatment, and yet who can
not be looked after in charity hos
pital.
IF we throw down the bars the
hospital would be filled within twenty
four hours with incurables," said DR..
Mclean this morning. MANY of these
persons do not seem to be able to I'M
derstand that we cannot accept tuber-
culosis patients, or persons afflicted
with pellagra. l have had more than
a dozen applications from persouns af-
fiicted with the latter disease, for
which there is no known remedy, and
which We must therefore regard as
incurable. have been more thorough
ly convinced than ever before that
Mississippi needs a home or hospital
for incurables. OF course, many of
these persons are deserving of public
charity, homeless and friendless, and
yet if we take them at the charity
hospital it will leave no room for
emergency cases, and that is what the
hospital was established for"

BETWEEN DEVIL
and Deep SEA
Concise Statement of the Political
Situation From Republican
Politician.

Washington, June 5.-This is the
sad state in which stalwart Republi-
can congressman find themselves in
this age of trials, as concisely put by
one of them:
"As far as the Roosevelt people are
concerned, l am now in purgatory;
from purgatory there is hope of es-
cape. If I go little further will be
in hell, and from there you cannot
escape.
81 am not afraid to talk about
Roosevelt, but there is no point in
talking now. AS to the general situa-
ton, we face two roads leading to the
same place. If you take the one to
the left, you will wish you had taken
the one to the right, and if you take
the one to the right you will wish you
were in hell.
Therefore, what's the use to men,
per your pie when you know that you
may have to eat it."

brings Jackson close to the seven per
cent statutory limit of bonded indebt-
edness. The issue, bearing five per
cent interest, 2O-year term, sold at
premium of 1882 and accrued inter
est.
The next important action of the
council was the award of contracts for
street paving on Robinson, Hamilton,
South State and Silas Brown streets,
aggregating 32,25O square yards, at a
cost of $S9,396.10. The contract was
captured by the Southern Bitulithic
Company, of Nashville, and bithulithic
material will be used on the four
streets named with concrete for the
area occupied by street railway tracks
on Robinson and South State streets.
This is the largest contract for paw
ing work ever awarded by the city
council of Jackson at one meeting.

TO ORGANIZE TAILORS.

New York; June 5.-A movement
has been started by the United Garment
Workers of America to organize all
the tailors in New York, and mass
meeting of all the branches of the tail
oring trade will be held this evening
in Cooper Union to perfect plans.
Leaders of the unions in all the gar,
ment trades allege that this has been
a bad year for the workers in these
industries. Wages have been steadily
going down in many of the trades and
strikes of garment workers on large
scale had been planed for this spring.
At the last moment it was decided
that conditions were not such as to
make it wise to declare a strike until
a more thorough organization of work
ers had been perfected.

HOG CHOLERA
IN Jones COUNTY

Laurel. Miss, June 5.-There is an
epidemic of hog cholera in Jones coun-
ty, and farmers report that many of
their hogs are dying of this malady.
Several farmers in the $3.50 communi-
ty have applied to DR.. Hughes for in
structions and he has advised them
to purchase a hog syringe and give
anti-toxin to their swine
Prof. Hutchinson, of the Agricultural
high school, states that if the farmers
will purchase the medicine, he will
go, or send one of his students to treat
any infected hogs. The students of
the Agricultural high school were in
structed by him in the administration
of the remedy, and are competent to
give it.
1t is an absolute prevention of this
disease if given in time, and by the
use of it, any farmer can absolutely
insure his hogs against death by
cholefa. 1t is comparatively cheap
being furnished by the state at actual
cost, and as Prof. Hutcheson will do
the incubation without charge, there
is no reason why any farmer should
lose his hogs from cholera. 1t should
be borne in mind, however, that the
serum prevents cholera, and does not
cure it. Consequently every farmer
should have his hogs given the treat
ment before they become sick.

HOUSE PASSES
BILL over VETO
Measure Revising Wool Duty
Has Margin Of Five Votes.
WHO SCENE IN The CHAMBER
Speakers Ruling Not Counting Votes
Of Those Who Answer "Present" Ac-
composites It-Sugar conferees Dis
auree-Excise Tax Bill Will Wait.

Washington, Aug. 14.-By a narrow
margin Of five votes the house passed
the wool tariff revision bill over Presi-
dent Taft's veto. The vote, ia to 80,
was made possible only by the defec-
lion of twenty-0ne Republicans, who
voted with the Democrats.
The announcement of Democratic
success created wild scene in the
house and amid great confusion the
Republican leaders protested that
Speaker Clark must count as voting
ten members who answered present
to their names, a ruling which would
have defeated the Democratic program
by overcoming the five-vote margin
and making impossible the recording
of the necessary two-thirds vote OF
the house. This the speaker declined
to do
Less than an hour after the wool
bill had been repassed in the house
the corferees on the sugar tariff bill
met and disagreed. They determined
to report to the house and senate that
1t had been found impossible to reach
a compromise between the Underwood
and Ledge Bristow bills.
This action is expected to mark the
end of sugar tariff consideration in
the present session, and the excise
tax bill, which was framed to make up
revenues that would have been lost
by the reduction of the sugar tariff,
also probably will remain In confer
ence when congress adjourns.
While Democratic and Progressive
leaders of the senate do not believe
the wool bill can be passed in that
body over the presidents veto, they
will continue the demand for action on
the cotton tariff measure.
