of the citizens of Mansfield we cant
not issue a newspaper such as the
city should have. We assure you,
however. that we will do u part
and we feel sure The the people will
do theirs, else we would not have
purchased the business.
We came from Hamilton, Mo-,
as entire strangers. Our first visit to
Mansfield was this week, but the
place looks good to us, and so we
are here to stay. Our family vii

WILL SURVEY
THE RIVER
Hon. T.U. SiSSOn Secures Government
Survey of YaiObusha River.

Hon. T. U. Sisson has secured the
consent of the proper committee of the
National Congress to have another sur
vey of the Yalobusha river from its
mouth to Grenada. This looks good
for Grenada and is indeed tribute to
the diligence and the perseverance of
Congressman Sisson.
The survey made last was not salts
factory to the Government, hence it
took no little labor and tact upon Mr..
Sisson's part to get an order for an
other survey. 1t is needless for the
Sentinel to elaborate on the import
ance of the navigation of the Yalobu-
sha river to Grenada, and it is the
opinion of this paper that the last or
der for survey assures navigation.

The WEEK IN COURT
GRAND JURY REPORTED 81 BILLS
Some Of The important Gases.

There was no session of the circuit
court on Monday. On Tuesday the
court convened and the grand jury
made its final report, which showed
thirty-two indictments returned. Judge
Mclean expressed appreciation of the
earnest and faithful labors of that
body.
There were but few cases of import
arce to go to the jury last week. yet
there was much business disposed of,
Wednesday the time of the court was
taken up with the trial of negro,
Henry Cause, for the killing of Tom
Mcdonald, another negro, on the farm
of j. P. Brooks, last August. The jury
returned verdict of acquittal.
The case of the state VS.. A. P. M g.
ness, charged with having killed G. W.
Gilon on JAM %, was called Wednes-
day. The state announced ready, but
the defense was not ready to make
known its wishes. District Attorney
Lamb asked for special venire, which
was objected to by the defense, but
the court, acting upon what it believed
is the plain letter of the law, ordered
venire of $50 men, summoned to ap-
pear Saturday morning, Feb. 8, to try
| Magness.
At this writing it is not definitely
known whether or not the case will go
to trial this week. Rumor has it that
the defense will ask for change of
venue. The defense is represented by
w. S. Hill and Judge J. 7. Dunn. Dis
trict Attorney Lamb is assisted in the
prosecution by Cowles Horton of the
local bar and George T. Mitchell of
Tupelo.
The case of Sim Caffey, one of the
defendants charged with killing Pope
Searcy, was begun Thursday. A special
venire was drawn.

and in fact mean something, and be
susceptible of being enforced, and not
nullified. We can do it by the exercise
of common sense and reason; let's do
it'll (Cheers.)
Another of Mssissippi's great needs,
according to Gov. Brewers idea, was
the construction of permanent high
ways in the state, and he did not be-
lieve that the real, true prosperity
would come to the state until it was
done.
Zone thing we ought to do is to take
the convcts on the Rankin farm, in
summer when work is slack, and build
magnificent, permanent highway from
that farm to your seat of government
here at Jackson; the convicts at Oakley
should be used to build pike of the
same sort from Oakley tn Jackson; the
convicts at Parchman should be used
similarly to build another great high
way from the Sunfower farm to the
state capital. Then it will not be long
until the farmers along the way OF
these fine and permanent pixies will be-
gin to build lateral branches and joir
them on to these roads, and the terri
tory for miles on either side will bt
more accessible, more available, and /;
better place to live in.
Then when this is done, gentlemen
l feel confident that it will not be tive
years until the next legislature will au
thorize the building of great nortl
and south state road the length ant
breadth of Mississippi

Mrs. Horton Entertains

On Monday afternoon last, Mrs.
Cowles Horizons charming little cot
tage was indeed lovely setting for its
delightful mistress, when she enter
tanned few of her chosen friends in
honor of her aunt, Mrs. ]. A. Slater, of
Nebraska.
The guests, on entering, were served
with hot coffee, which proved very ac-
ceptable just after coming in from a
very bleak outside.
The rooms were artistically decorated
in pink, the color motif being particu-
larly elaborated in the dainty dining
room, where pink-shaded candles threw
a soft, mellow glow over table, which
truly showed how gifted is this lovely
young matron. Here delicious salad,
with hot chocolate, delighted the sight
as well as the taste of each discrimi-
mating guest-for what is better than
masses cf whipped cream on rich cho-
colate? The flowers used were exquis-
ite pink roses.
The afternoons entertainment con-
sisted of two guessing contests, in the
first Of which questions were required
to be answered by words spelled with
the letters composing the name Violet
Hide; in the second, all answers were
girls names. ...

Mrs. N. A. Ross Passes Away.

Mrs. NJ. A. Ross died at her home at
Tie Plant last Saturday, after pro-
longed illness, and her remains We're
carried to Oxford for interment on
Sunday afternoon.
Mrs. Ross was the widow of General
John B. Ross of Georgia and sister
of one Of Mississippi's greatest and
most honored men, Senator L. @. C.
Lamar, who was later a Supreme
Judge. She was representative of
that motherhood which so beautifully
and yet patnetically links the past with
the present. She was highly cul-
tured lady, yet her intellectual training
had in no way minimized her domestic
talents. Her sphere was her home, to
which she gave every care and atten-
ton possible for good mother and a
noble wife.
During her widowhood she had lived
with her sons and for the last dozen
years or more Mr.. ID. G. Ross, her son,
and she had kept house at Tie Plant.
Her house there was an ideal retreat.
Mrs. Ross had long been member
of the Methodist church and during her
younger years was ac tive in participa-
tion of the work of the church. Truly,
she lived noble life and her home was
ever blessed with the sunshine of d
christian life. She is survived by three
sons, Judge J. c. Longstreet ano
M.ssrs. Lamar and D. G. Ross, tt
whom the Sentinel offers sympathy.
