Theatens Dead Negroes Sons

Hattiesbarg, Miss, July 10 lit
was reported in Hattiesburg Friday
that the people in the Rawls Springs
and Lux neighborhoods were very
much excited over the fact that three
sons of Aaron Hampton, the negro who
was assassinatsd near the Springs
early last Wednesday morning, we're
in the neighborhood. Many rumors
were circulated as to threats the neg
roes we're said to have made, but
investigation showed that these ru-
mors were n the main without foun-
dalton.
The facts are that the negroes who
caused so much excitement and whose
presence in the community was gem
orally objected to, came here from
Abita. La, where they are emplo yed
at saw-mill, for the purpose OF at
tending the funeral of their father
The negroes denied that they had
made any threats or that they had
any other inf sntion in remaining here,
than to see that their stsp-mother and
her family of small children were
provided for.

LOST in A DESERT
u. S. Grant Returns With
Indian Guide and Finds his
Brother Raving.

San Diego, CAL, July 17.--Lost in
the desert hstween the little towns of
MECCA and Brawley, Cal, Chaffee
Grant and his younger brother, u. s.
Grant ", grandsons of President
Grant, tramped for three days on the
verge OF death. They were rescued
by pure chance and the aid of an old
desert Indian, known, in the district
as Piuts Jake.
At one time during the awful period
Chatfee was SO far gone with thirst,
hunger, and exhaustedthat his brother
himself dazed and almost crazed by
his experience, fought with the Indian
in an effort to shoot the helpless man
aud to put him out of misery
Chaffee and u. S. Grant left Los
Angeles in an automobile over what
is known as the hundred thousand
dollar turnpike" leading across the
desert to Brawley. When they passed
the little town of Palm Springs they
noticed thattheir engine was beginning
to give trouble. 1t held up for soma
time, however, and hey passed Mecca
still going fast.
About midway between Mecca and
Brawley, seventy or eighty miles
away from the nearest help, tie engine
went dead. For hours the brothers
worked over the balky motor. Then
their supply of drinking water ran out
and they were forced to drink the water
in the radiator of their machine, thus
putting the engine hopelessly out of
commission.
When this water was gone the
brothers cast about for some plan TO
get them to civilization.
TWAS decided to go direct to Brawley
asthe nearest point. In attempting to
make this trip they became lost and
wandered into the hills, frantic. parched
and starving.
For day the pair tramped through
the binding clouds of dust. They
were overtaken by storm and when
this had passed they we're hopelessly
lost.
The next day Chaffee broke down
His tongue was hanging
out of his mouth, his eyes burned deep
into their sockets, and.his limbs refused |
to carry him further. U. s. Grant was
IN little better condition, but able to
traYel. Leaving his brother, u. S.
Grant went on until he found Piute
With the Indian he returned to |
whore Chaffee was lying on the |
sand. Chatfee was raving by this |
time and u. S. Grant, himsel half |
,raked, decided it would be better to
shoot his brother and put him out of |
ais misery than to attempt the seem
ngy hopeless task of gettingio Draw
Icy.
The Indian, however, refused to
allow the shot to be fired, and forcing
.. s. Grant to go with him, tramped
niles over the desert to his little hat
There they found durro. With
his they went back to where Chaffee
vas lying and hosting the raving
louth over the animal carried him to
where the auto was stalled.
In forty-eight hours the brothers had
walked in a circle and had progressed
ess than ten miles in a straight line.
With the burro they dragged the car
o Brawley.

ANOTHER SIDE TO MATTER
One Man Has Discovered That Offer
ing Floral Bouquets to the Living
Is Not All Joy.

There has been a good deal in the
paragraph section of our exchanges
for some weeks to the effect that you
should give the bouquets now; not
wait to lay them on the. coffin lid"
says Tom Thompson in the Howard
Courant. Ella Wheeler before she was
a Wilcox wrote a poem On that
theme; Chancellor Bradford at the
chautauqua dinged it into US, and
most of us have been affected by it.
But say, my brother-sister, have you
tried it yet? I have-twice. First,
tried it on a very dear friend of the
other sex, and she began to get nerv-
GUS like she thought l was trying to
fiirt with her. Then / quit, for ] am
prominently no fiirt. Next I tried it
on a brother in my lodge and Sunday
school, and he SHE'D off like he ex-
pected me to ask him for loan. So
after this / shall water my flower beds

occasions exclusively. Very few peo-
pie know how to receive floral offer
ings, anyway.-Kansas City Star.

RARE PRESENCE OF MIND
At Least 1t Is to Be Supposed Young
Lady's Mother Regarded 1t
as Such.

Speaking of rare presence of mind
recently recalled to ex-President Taft
the case of handsome young woman
of his acquaintance. She had gone to
the railway station to meet man
friend of the family, and when he de-
barked from the train the young man
lost his head and impulsively kissed
her. The girl thought it the part of
prudence to tell her mother of the af-
fair, upon which the latter was simply
Mortified.
you don't mean to tell me that he
had the impudence to kiss you?" she
cried. "And to think of the crowd at
the station! Why, my dear, what did
you do in such an embarrassing sit
uation?"
why, mother, I Just kissed him
back, of course. IL wanted to give all
those people the impression that we
were relatives. The Sunday Maya

What So Precious
AS a Healthy Baby?
Every YoungSfer Can Have Fine
digestion, if GiUen q Good
Baby Laxative.

In spite of the greatest personal
care and the most intelligent attention
to diet, babies and children will be-
come constipated. and it is fact that
constipation and indigestion have
wrecked many a young life. To start
with a good digestive apparatus is to
start life without handicap.
But, as we cannot all have perfect
working bowels, we must do the next
best thing and acquire them, or train
them to become healthy. This can be
done by the use Of a laxative-tOnic
very highly recommended by great
many mothers. The remedy is called
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and has
been on the market for two genera
tons. 1t can be bought conveniently
at any drug store for fifty cents or one
dollar bottle, and those who are al
ready convinced of its merits buy the
dollar size.
It's mildness makes it the ideal medi-
cine for children, and it is also very
pleasant to the taste. 1t is sure III its
effect, and genuinely harmless. Very
little of it is required and it's frequent
use does not cause it to lose it's eff
feet, as is the case with so many other
remedies.
Thousands cap testify to its merits
in constipation, indigestion, bilious
ness, sick headaches, etc., among
them reliable people like Mrs. James

Peculiar Belief.

Two centuries have passed since
the Scottish judge Lord Monboddo
was born. In his "Origin and Prog
ress of Language" he argued that hui
man beings should be studied like
other animals; but this doctrine seem
ed to the contemporaries of DR.. John
son so ridiculous that the wags based
many jest upon it. His belief that
men got rid of their tails by sitting
upon them would now scarcely raise
a smile among anthropologists Among
his more startling proposition was the
earnestly maintained one that the ou-
rang-outang was a class Of the hui
man species, and that its want OF
