Persistency in Advertising.

One stroke of bell in thick fog
does not give any lasting impression of
its location, but when followed by re-
peated strokes at regular intervals the
densest fog OF the darkest night cannot
long conceal its whereabouts. Likewise
a single insertion of an advertisement
as compared with regular and syste-
matte advertising-is in It's effect not
unlike a sound which, heard but family
once, is lost in space and soon forgot.

In Memory Of Charlie Rogers.

How hard it was to give him up.
That gentle loving boy;
To drink Of sorrows bitter cup.
And lose all earthly joy,
How long and patiently he lay upon
his bed of pain,
Until the voice of angels called him
from his earthly pain.
Weep not oh, father, mother dear,
Your boy has gone to heaven,
And very soon you will meet him
Upon that bright and happy shore.
Gentle brother and sister, do not weep,
1t was the voice of God
And when at last you fall asleep,
You will go to him in God.
Loving friends and schoolmates cease
to weep,
He is now in that fair realm above the
skys;
The one you have laid to rest is now
where all is bright and fair.
Marie Baum, Schoolmate.

ez. asking that the receiver Of the
defunct First Natchez Bank be
authorized to make settlement Of
the obligations due. from S H
Lowenburg. vice.president Of the

Mr. Lowenburg submits this
offer. with the condition attached
that. if accepted, the authorities
will eDdeavor to have the criminal
proceedings pending against him
in the circuit court dismissed from
the docket.
If Chancellor Cutrer has the
backbone we have heretofore be-
lieved him TO possess, he will not
only reject this offer, but send to
Jail for contempt Of court the man
who makes it.
Such proposal was once made
and accepted in a bank failure case

THE COURT AND THE ASSIGNEES.

Is Chancellor P. z. Jones Judge
of the Lincoln County 'Chancery

Louis Cohn and l.. g. Baggett?
Are the asslRnees of the defunct
Commercial Bank & Trust Co.,
backed by their attorneys superior
in authority when Judge Jones'
rulings 60 contrary to their wishes!
1t would seem that the latter is
the case when it comes to any order
favorable to the depositors of the
institution.

Their first depression was made
several weeks ago when they refus-
ed to pay an order of Judge Jones
in favor of W. P. Wildberger, of
the bank commission. and also one
of the officers of the court. The
assignees, however, finally paid the
amount after a consultation with
their attorneys Last Saturday a
similar order was given which was
turned down cold and a demurrer
setting forth their reasons was filed
today by Attorney Cassidy.
Another instance of their disre-
gard Of the courts order is their
failure. to- publish statement every
80 days. The assignees' last state
nlent was made on May 13. Today
the statement is IL days over due.
Vigorous objection was made by
Mr.. Louis Cohn st one of the de-
pesitors' meetings to a resolution
asking for. this statement each
month. Objection has really been
made to any and everything practi-
cally, which has come from the de-
positors and smacked of a desire to
have direct representation in a dis
position of the banks affairs. 7
Who is to e-the court or the
assignees-will be known by the
assignees attitude toward the mat
ter after Judge Jones takes action
on the commissioners report.
