We n11ote A part of the letter from the gentleman at Enic
THE DIXON RE HERSAL

lust as affirmation Of the conviction of Dixon, the W ung Yazoo
county hoodlum and pistol toter, who so wantonly and brually
killed Miss DXop, was expected, the supreme court has found flaws
IN his conviction emitting him to a new trial, and bail. To the a-
erape reader of the reports of the brutal affair, it seemed a case of
clear sailing to the galIows or a lite term. But it is another illustra-
ton of tn" short+isntedness of the public in this sphere. How lit
tie we know of such cases under the def handling of the masters in
the silence of the criminal law, the following from the Yazoo Sent-
mel proves: The case is unparalleled in the history of Yazoo coun
" iuui,prudence, in that no other man has ever been put OIL trial so
many times in 20 short a time, the case having been heard FIVE times
in less than a year"-VCksburg Herald.
We intended to make some comment on the Dixon case in the
Sentinel of last week, but the rush of other matters prevented.
While we have the profoundest respect tor the judges of the state
supreme court, yet we can not refrain from saying that that body
blundered when it reversed the Dixon case. AS we recall, the press
report of The reason assigned for reversal, it was stated that four of
the jurors were biased Then how about the eight that were not BIZ
ased? There was no denial of the fact that Dixon killed the young
lady and all this stuff about junes and not being allowed a change of
venue, should be discarded when the court is in possession of evil
dence, which is admitted by the defense, that the crime was com.
mited. The young lady is dead and her death was brought about
by gnnshot fired by Dixon. The country has too much dingeC
hair-spitting by the courts.
One of the states ex-offcials, who handled the case before the
Supreme Court, tells US that the four so-called CHASED Jurors all
said that they had no prejudice in the case and that they could and
would give the defendant a fair trial. This ex official was surprised
that the case was not affirmed.

.AL.ABAMLAN"S ESTIMATE OF BREWER

The Mobile Register, one of the really big papers of the South.
and which mannests a keen interest in Mississippi, keeping track of
this states events closely and maintaining a bureau in Jackson, in
the issue of yesterday has the following editorial in regard to our
governor, which is printed under the caption of Governor Brewer
Making Good"
"Mississippians have good reason to congratulate themselves
upon the excellent gentleman they have selected as their governor.
His course up to the present time has been admirable. He has adj
vocated only those things tending to bring peace again to the dis
senting factions of his party upon state politics and policies. He has
views and recommendations. Nor has he hesitated to use the power
of his office in vetoing measures he believed unsound, not stopping
TO consider whether friend or foe would be affected. No man has
ear more than any other man-and he is a good listener; yet when it
comes to action he calls his own brain and heart into plav.
in the matter of the prevailing danger of Mississippi from the
Overlooking river of that name, Governor Brewer has greatly en-
deared himself to his constituency. He did not attempt to stay in
his Office and handle the situation at long range. Instead, he got
right in the thick of things at the danger point-so much SO that he
was capszed into the flood water from a boat and in peril of his life
AT the Crucial points he hurried the convicts. He summoned his
best generals and managers of men, and threw all the resources of
the state into the fight at Millers Point. at Beulah. at Christmas
Crossing. If an overflow is prevented, and the levees made to hold
out the devastating waters, Mississippians will have to thank their
governor for the very great service he performed in helping to
achieve that result"

The Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee OF the lower
house of Congress has reported favorably bill giving the Interstate
Commerce Commission authority over the Express companies of
the country. The bill seeks to govern express charges on packages
not exceeding II pounds in weight and fixes the rates as follows: Be-
tween any two points not more than $50 miles apart. two cents per
pound; $50 to GOO miles. four cents per pound and from 1900 to 1000
miles, ten cents per pound. This will be much better than the rates
charged now. but we rather suspect that Congress is about to suffer
itself to be imposed upon by allowing such a law to shelve for a time
a parcels post. The bill also provides tor a close working arrange
ment with rural mail routes.

Mayor William Gaynor of New York City made:a speech at the
Jefferson birthday banquet in that city on the 18TH inst. which
sounds quite like that he would be pleased to have some one pitch
"his hat into the ring for the democratic nomination for the presi-
.dency. His subject was. what would Jefferson say?" He takes
the position that Jefferson foresaw that the courts would, by strain
ing at technicalties, obstruct the progress of the country. Gaynor
has made a great mayor. but the democratic party wouldsdo a very
suicidal thing to place at the head of its ticket a man! that is even
remotely connected with Tammany.

While thousands regret the great loss sustained by the reslgna-
ion and removal from the state of President J: =. Hardy OF our -
s. NJ College, the selection of Hon. Geo. K Hightower as MS u
cessor, has met with general approval throughout the state. MT.
Hightower is one Of the big-brained men of the state; has never
shown himself TO be an of6ceseeker, and we can but believe that In
the great work he has done for the farmers and the farmers organ
himself to be a good organize. and an executive officer OF ABILITY.
and there is no reason to fear for the prosperity OF the "A q NJ "h"e
under his supervision.
The above from the Ripley Enterprise, whose editor is a brother
of Hon L. Pink Smith of Greenvine, is a crystalized statement OF
the way Mr.. Hightowers election is generally regarded by the press
of the state. which does MOI Measure all men and matters by certain
partisan aignments. The writer wa a party to naming MIR. High
tower for the presidency of the A. & M. College, and gladly gives
space to the above in the Sentinel, not only tor the pleasure 1t gives
its editor, but for what lit may be worth to one of the states great
educational institutions.

The Sentinel a few days ago received a copy of Watts Official
Railway Guide. The publication is full and complete and gives the
schedules of all the leading railroads of the United States, and be-
sides this, contains much valuable information for the travelling pub

Atlanta, Ga.

SENTINEL GETS BOUQUETS

Our readers will pardon us, we are sure, for permitting them to
see some of the bouquets that have recently been thrown US. We
always endeavor to get out a readable paper and to make it of some
substantial value to II community. We ire not unmindful of the
fact that we do not always please many of our readers, but we are
not surprised and our lachrymal glands do not overflow because of
it. vet an editor is Just human and it pleases him to receive words of
commentator. In the two instances, which we take the liberty of
and what they were pleased to say came as a surprise. The first let
ter is from Mr.. ]. b. Perry, one of Grenada's good men and foremost
factors. The second is from a prominent citizen and leading mer-
chant at Enid. Mr.. Perry said:
Grenada, April II, 1912.
o. F. Lawrence, Editor Grenada Sentinel:
Dear Sir-Everyone thinks he has a perfect right to criticse pub
lie officers, and all newspapers; and like some others have criti-
cised your paper, sometimes a little harshly.
Now want to commend you for the last two issues, especially
the last issue in March. If you can hold up to the standard of these
two issues. our county will have the best paper in this part of the
state.
The editorial page was full of good things, and the local news
page va also good. May the old Sentinel live long and prosper
and grow more useful with every issue.
Very truly,
r. Perry.
We quote d part of the letter from the gentleman at Enid:
You deserve more subscribers, especially since you give so
much for so little money. Your locals are nicely gotten up; your
editorials are super-excelent. They are timely discussions of the is
sues of the day. The mechanical part of the paper is unsurpassed
in the state. notice that you have a good advertising patronage,
but think your business people ought to increase this; it would pay
them to do so. have been thinking for some time that would
subscribe for your excellent paper: regard the Sentinel as one of
the very best papers in the state

p l, 20. For l am in a strait betwixt 2, having a desire to
and be with Christ, which is far better.
I shall depart to be with Christ
Some glad sweet day, in Paradise:
Tho dark the way may seem to me,
When death shall dim the vision of mine eye
When faltering breath shall herald in decay,
And pulsing heart shall cease and all be still,
1t is the Lord. Blest be whate'er He will.
For l shall know as ne'er l knew before
What means His leading over lifes rough way
And shall see as meier l saw before
The dawn of Paradise, where sunbeams play.
Eternal light, there ever shines the sun,
The sun of righteousness, cen Christ the Lord
Till then, let me be leaning on HIS Word.
l shall depart some day to be with Christ;
Some glad sweet day shall reach Paradise, >
And l shall enter in, nor be afraid
l shall attain and iris shall be the prize.
Free from temptations lure, and free from sin,
shall learn heavens laws and be perfect made,
When sounds the trump on resurrection morn,
To stand in Gods pure presence undismayed.
O Paradise: sweet place of rest and peace;
Whose parting is a breath and 10 we stand
Dear souls redeemed, within the church's pale.

That | the cloud of witnesses might see
Which now surround me as l struggle on.
Or like the Prophets servant who beheld
The armed shadowy hosts OF God around
AS trembling, when beseiged by Syrian horde,
His eyes were opened, and deliverance found.
Or like St. Paul, whose vision in the dark,
Didst pierce the seventh heaven, and behold
Things, lawful not to speak of-nor forget.
What tingling raptures shall my heart enthrall
AS all my loved ones gone before, l greet
When l shall see and know them as on earth
And friends long dead to earth, once more to meet.
How we shall speak of days gone by,
When fearsOme oft, as sorrows surge around.
And we shall wonder at the lack of faith
That marked our years, ere Paradise is found.
The saints and martyrs of the church's song
We shall see face to face, and know,
And hear them tell the story-long
10 us retold in calendars-below.
Fen Dismas, who in deaths dark hour
Called from the cross, 20, Lord, remember me-"
Apostles, prophets, long ard holy line,
We shall greet face to face, and hear and see.
The blessed Christ shall touch my hand.

And know my Savior as He IS
And see Gods lilly plans unfold.
Yet not today; for must walk by faith
And not by sight, until my work is Ger.

To train for Heaven, perfected forever more.

Eoxy Joe McGinnity.

Manager Joe McGinnity of Newark
was offered back Joe Agler by tie
Cubs, but declined to take him, since
he is sure Harry Swacina will fill all
requirements. Agler and Smith went
to the Cubs in deal by which Nc
Ginnity was to get players or cash.
Bob Fisher was sent to Newark and a
list of others, including Agler, submit
ted to McGinnity. None of them look
ed good to him and he demanded cash
instead to the amount of $4,000. Pres
ident Murphy sent him a check for the
amount and Agler went to Jersey City
The deal McGinnity made was a good
one, for Fisher bids fair to be worth
as much as both Smith and Agler, aud
Joe has the 5000 bones besides.

'Dode" Paskert tells an interesting
yarn on Matty and his headwork. The
Reds were playing the Giants and
Mike Mitchell was clouting Mattys
shoots to all corners of the lot, while
Dick Hoblitzel had famed three sue
cessive times.
The Reds had a man on second and
a man on third, with two out in the
ninth inning. and the Giants had a
one-run lead. A single would have
won the game and Hobby was the
hitter. The fans were giving up hope
when Matty deliberately passed Hob
by to take a chance on Mitchell, who
had made two triples and double in
his three trips to the plate.
The fans shouted and laughed. They
thought it was all off with Matty.
Mitchell had been clouting Matty's fast
ball and Mike expected to see the fade

taught to accomplish almost any ace
that it's owner wishes.
The birds are naturally fond of play
and to combine play with instruction
is said by Edward Montague, an old
New Englander, to be the best meth.
cd of training. Montague's ancestry
dates back in 1868, when Richard Mon
tague settled in Hadley, Mass, and ali
of his descendants. Of whom there are
more than five hundred in the United
States, take pride in displaying tho
Montague coat-of-arms.
In addition to being proud of his
ancestry, Edward Montague is ex
tremely proud of his flock of trained
cockatoos and some of his birds
doubtless because of his training, dis
play almost human intelligence.
The cockato is found in immense
f1ocks in the wild regions three hun
dred miles west of Melbourne, Aus
tralia, and there they are easily
caught in traps. There are several
species, but those with the yellow
crest are the most beautiful as well
as the most intelligent.
1t is a strange feature of the breed
ing of the cockatoo that the mother
bird matches her young in a particular
ly torrid climate and then immedt
ately flies away to some colder cline
where the young bird quickly attains
its growth. Another feature of the
bird is that the crest is a barometer OF
feeling
When incensed, the crest is percep
tibly raised, while when the bird
sulks, the crest is correspondingly
lowered. Naturally the bird Is OF
vicious nature and one pick from the
sharp bill is sufficient to sever the end
of finger.
Training OF the birds is an interest
ing vocation and usually extends over
a psriod of two years. The individu
al bird must first be taught to per
form and then similar instruction has
to be given to the flock. The birds
can be taught to dance, engage III
chariot races, do stunts on the hori'
zontal bars, perform on revolving
balls and lastly to talk and swear
The birds strangely pick up profana
words much more quickly than words
of any other type, and some cockatoos
know more profanity than anything
else.
They live to be more than one hun
dred years old, and some birds are in
captivity which have exceeded the
century mark. They do not require
any more treatment to sustain life
than a human being, and il they are
fed regularly and kept out of draughts
they contract no illness. But they dis
like extreme hot weather. and thoae
in captivity always grow restless
when the hot sun shines upon them.

HOW CHlCAGOS LOST O'BRlEN
Carl Lundgren Gave President Murphy
His Opinion That Buck Would
Not Do for Cubs.

"If 1t hadn't been for Carl Lundgren
today" says President Murphy of the
Chicago Cubs. 'Lundgren played for
the Chicago team many years and
was most excellent pitcher. He was
uniformly good during the cold days,
when most twirlers can scarcely hold
the ball. He won many games for the
Cubs at such times and was a factor
in our success.
His judgment slipped up in the
case of O'Brien, however. had heard
a lot about O'Brien's wonderful work
in the Connecticut league. In fact.
many persons had written me advis-
ing his purchase by the Cubs. l
picked up an eastern paper one day.
noticed where Lundgren was playing
on the Hartford club, the same that
OBrien was a member of, and de-
cided to get Carts opinion OF the
youngster. ssSN
Carl had pitched for the University
of Illinois before joining the Cubs, and
as George Huff was coach of the IL
linois, in addition to being our scout
at that time. l decided to get busy.
First of all / asked Huff to write
Lundgren and find cut what he
thought of O'Brien. The answer came
back in due time: 'O'Brien is only
fair pitcher
THAT settled OBrien for me. If he
didn't look good to Lundgren. didn't
see where he could be used by the
Cubs. Yet that same O'Brien pitched
amazing ball for the Denver club OF
the Western league. and was grabbed
up by the Boston Red Sox before we
could get another crack at him. Jack
Hendricks, manager of the Denver
club, and one OF the best developers
of young ball players in the business,
according to my way of thinking, con-
siders O'Brien the best young pitcher
he has ever set eyes on.
For that matter. club owner has
to pick and choose diamonds in the
