+. E. Clements, prominent
farmer living one mile east of Dover,
met with serious and painful acci-
sident Monday morning while feeding
his horse. Just how the accident
happened Mr.. Clements cannot tell,
but he is supposed to have suffered
an attack of vertigo. He had gone
to the loft to get some hay for the
horses, when he fell down, a distance
of s or 10 feet, landing on his head.
He was rendered unconscious and one
ear was almost severed.

aged father, Manuel Panaretos, pro-

Panaretos has sold his place of bust
ness to parties from Baltimore who
will continue. Although the Handy
Kitchen has been established only a
few months, it has been a success.
improvements and enlargements of
quarters were being started when
Panaretos received notice and decided
to return to his native land.

The Matter of Schooling.

There are more white children IN
Mississippi than negro children, and
yet, according to recent school statist-
les, one hundred thousand more negro
children are availing themselves of the
public schools of the state. We may
talk about Mississippi for Mississip-
plans" ss much as we please; We may
brag and boast and swell up with pride
when we think Of the great men Mis-
sissippi has grown in the past. But
Mississippi will be judged in the future
by what it is, more than by what it has
been, and Mississippi in the future will
not be much to be proud of if the ne
gro population becomes better educated
than the white population. --Hattiesburg
News.
Our cotemporary would take a more
cheerful view of the situation if ne
would analyze it. In the first place,
Mississippi has scores of private pay
schools, boarding schools and colleges,
that absorb tens of thousands Of its
young people, those at Brook Haven,
Blue Mountain and Jackson probably
representing 2000 pupils; and there is
not prominent educational establish
ment east of the Mississippi river in
America that has not Mississippi boys
or girls on its rolls. In some districts
of large plantations, in our prairie,
delta and bottom regions, there are not
white children enough within reason
able radius to warrant the establish
ment of free school, and those chill
dren are all sent to town or abroad to
the pay schools, except where private
tutors are employed On the other
: hand, the negroes arr almost all pat
rons of the free schools, and on some
, great plantations there are several col
, ored schools with hundreds Of pupils,

Joe POstOn Thomas is Dead.

Joe Poston Thomas, age 10, son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. B. F, Thomas, died at
the home of his parents in Grenada on
Thursday morning at little past 2 o
clock, after an illness of little over
two weeks of typhoid fever.
Death, while sure and inevitable, is
never welcome and it never comes to
home that it does not bring sadness
and sorrow whether it be the young or
the old that is taken. When the aged
die, the world and loved ones are more
reconciled because it is believed that
they have lived out their allotted days;
but when the young die those that have
a bright future and so many days Of
happiness and usefulness to their fel-
lows before them, it seems that fate in
some way has brought about miscar
carriage and the blow falls the more
heavily upon those whose hearts bleed
because of the bereavement. Such is
the situation regarding the subject of
this sketch. He had had the care of a
gentle and loving mother. Nothing that
she could do for her children has ever
been left undone; the devotions of an
affectionate and thoughtful father had
watched over Joe for these years anc
he was ripening into useful manhood.
His conduct at school and with his as
sociates and friends early gave evidence
of the care of loving parents and showed
those excellencies of character which
are destined to shine the more bright!
in the land of the redeemed. The blow
is heavy one to the family, but the,
know that their son and brother nov
dwels in that beautiful city Of Co
and his going can but bind them to tina
eternal home. His life will be a ple
at the great white throne for those wh
! are now in tears and in the days t
come they may all join him there. Go
| is not unmindful of the least things 0
earth and the anguish of heart of thos
who now weep will be garnered by tn
angels, and no genuine sorrow is eve
, in vain.

cor returning from trip to a number
II counties in Mississippi in behalf of
,hs national bureau at Washington.
Mr. McBrien came to this state two
u.sks ago for the government, to visit
tho AGRICULTURAL high schools and write
onecia bulletin on his observation.
Asked regarding his visits, he said
: 81 can most unhesitatingly say that
Mississippi easily is in the lead of all
other states regarding efficient work in
agricultural high schools. Some states
have had these institutions longer, many
states are just starting them, but more
interest is being taken in them in Mis-
sissippi than in any other state, and it
ia hound to result in untold good to the
people,
Mr.. McBrien is now preparing a re-
nort on his trip, and in it makes the
following reference to Mississippi, pay
ing high compliment to State Super
;ntendent of Education J. N. Powers:
Mississippi now has "a county agri-
cultural high schools. Notwithstand.
ING the mistakes that have been made
in the establishment and shortcomings
of some of these schools. | consider
the work of State Superintendent Pow.
ers of Mississippi, and the educator:
who assisted him in the establishment
of these schools, one Of the greatest
pieces of constructive legislation thai
has been made in this or any other state
within the last 25 years. 1t is educa
tional craftsmanship, and have conf
dence that the logic of time will
vindcate him and the men who per
formed this Herculean task. 1t will
stand as a monument to which his chill
dren and their children can point witt
pardonable pride.
Moreover, through the influence o
these schohls in scientific agriculture
in domestic science, in manual training
in school and home sanitation, the dea
corpse of the old south will spring ur
on its feet, and the magic influence @
these schools will touch her natural re
sources and abundant streams of reve
