Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
FORT SKATER, Feb. 2..UndeI
orders issued yesterday company com.
to cause all men believed to possess
the necessary qualifications as ath
letes to report to Capt. Paul B. Ma
lone, I'd Infantry, daily at 1:30 p. M,
for the necessary tryouts to select an
athletic team from the regiment to
represent the same in the Forthcoming
Carnival meet.
The regiment intends putting in a
full team IN all of the following named
events in that tournament:
100-yard dash; 220 dash; half-mile
run; retiring sharpshooter race; shoe
race; flag relay race; carrying wound
led race; throwing baseball relay; tug
of war contest; machine gun contest;
50-yard swimming dash and 100-yard
swim.
Capt Malone will have as assist.
ants the two star athletes among the
officers of the regiment, Lieuts. C. B.
Lyman and w. G. Jones. who will aid
in the development and training of
the team.
The success attained last year by
the men representing the I'd Infantry
under the training of Capt. Malone
has made all hopeful that a second
winning aggregation may be turned
out by the same leader. The wins by
the I'd at the last meet were notable
and included the wall scaling and tug
of war, both being events largely de-
pendent on team work, in which as
trainers. Capt Malone and Lieut..
Booth, his assistant, showed marked
superiority of method as compared to
other plans of preparation for those
events.
Friendly Challenge Coming.
Considerable disappointment has
been expressed by the mounted order.
" section of the headquarters compa-
ny of the I'd Infantry that contest
in cossack riding, monkey drill and
horse training was not included in
the program arranged by the commit.
tee on events for the military tourna-
ment as that detachment feels conf
dent that 1t could meet with success
any similar number of men from any
OF the mounted organizations in the
islands In the specified events. Ger
tainly the men and animals have
shown skill and high training along
the lines referred to above. Repre-
sensations as to the desire of the de-
tachment to meet all Corners in a
contest were made to the Carnival au.
thorities, but the matter was referred
by those authorities to the board of
officers and the plan was evidently
not deemed practicable as to arrange
ment.
The detachment now contemplates3
issuing friendly challenge to the cav.
airy and artillery and the engineer
and signal companies to send a five
man team into the arena some time
during the Carnival period and let
the questionlof superiority as to skill
and methods in horse training be set
tied by decision of competent judges.
That the meet would afford an inter
esting exhibit and prove a drawing
card is a foregone conclusion and 1t
remains to be seen what will be the
outcome of the tentative sdefi' of the
"doughboys.

MRS. P. B. BERRY.

On Saturday night of May

Miss, this noble Christian wo-
man passed to her reward. She
was little over "a years of age
and had been for more than 81
years the faithful and devoted
wife Of Captain P. B. Berry, so
well-known in Rankin county,
both of whom have been a bene-
diction to all who have known
them. She was the crown of
her husband and the joy of her
children. Of her it could be
truthfully said, "She looked well
to the ways of her household,
and ate not the bread of idle
ness. Her children rise up and
call her blessed; her husband al
so praiseth her. She was a
noble mother and will live on in
her children to whom she has
left a heritage in exalted life and
character far richer than silver
and gold.

years. It was my great privi-

DEFEAT OF SHIP PURCHASE
BILL FATAL MISTAKE.


The defeat of President Will
sons ship purchase bill which
met defeat during the Congress
just closed, at the hands of the
Republicans, and a few dis
gruntled Democrats, has proven
to be one of the greatest blund-
ers in national affairs in recent
years, says the McComb City
Enterprise.
While thousands of American
citizens in all sections of the
country are unable to find en-
ployment, this country could, if
it possessed an adequate Mer-
chant Marine, be enjoying the
most stupendous and far-reach-
ing business boom that was ever
known. We could be shipping
to foreign ports at least one
hundred million dollars per
month more than we are selling
(which is $3.50, 200, OOO) if we
had the ships to carry the goods.
We leave the reader to esti-
mate how many more of our
people would be employed if we
were manufacturing, raising and
shipping an additional twelve
hundred million dollars of man
ufactured goods and foodstuffs
in the course of each twelve
months.
The Pan-American financial
conference in session in Wash
ington during the past few days,
launched a gigantic shipping
combination, the greatest ever
conceived in the history of the
world, with capital of hundreds
of millions of dollars, and with
all the governments of South
and Central America, as we'll as
that of the United States as
owners of the controlling inter-
est which if established will
eventually overcome the fatal
error made by the defeat of
President Wilson's Shipping Bill.
England and Germany are the
two best examples of what a
Merchant Marine does for a
country.
The great empire Of Germany
which could be set on the state
of Texas and then would not
cover it by ffty-fve thousand
square miles, has by its enorm-
Gus Merchant Marine maintained
a population of about seventy
million people.
Great Britain has only one
Ehr%ssdred and twenty thousand
square miles, so it is not half as
large as Texas and it has the
largest export trade of any ma
ton on earth which is maintain
ed by her enormous exports
through her Merchant Marine,
which gives employment to her
forty-fve million inhabitants.
The United States has a popu-
lation of one hundred million; it
has tremendously large manu-
featuring plants manufacturing
clothing, etc., of wide
variety which are saleable in
foreign countries, but it is USE
less for the manufacturers to
produce but little more of their
goods than is needed to supply |
the home demand for the simple
reason we have no possible way
of shipping our goods to foreign
markets in appreciate quaint

ANENT THE NEW COUNTY.

The old, old question of doing
something for the Rankin turn
pike was up for discussion be-
fore the Board of Trade last
night.
1t is unfortunate that this or
ganization of Jackson's, business
men is not equipped with the
necessary funds, otherwise the
much needed work on the turn
pike would have been completed
a long time since.
That the supervisors of Ran
kin county do not intend to do
anything in the way of turnpike
improvement is qnite evident.
Prompted by the foolish notion
that a frst-class highway would
divert country trade from Bran
don to Jackson, the Rankin
board has deliberately ignored
all petitions, requests and de-
mands for the repairs of the
pike, and if the work is ever
done it will have to be paid for
by the county of Kinds and the
citizens of Jackson.
There is one solution Of the
problem, and it is certain to
again assert itself. The crea-
ton of a new county placing the
pike outside of Rankin's juris-
diction will bring about the much
needed improvement.
One year ago the citizens were
on Bonded knees before the leg
islature imploring the members
not to create a new county.

jackson Daily News.
Jackson, Miss, April 81, 1915.
Kinds county candidates for
the Legislature are being asked
by a good many voters as to
whether or not they are in favor
of a new county with Jackson as
the capital. Some Of the candi-
dates answer the question frank
" and promptly, but at the same
time do not think that issue
should be sprung, declaring that
if the legislative candidates are
forced to take sides it will in
volve all other candidates. The
demand for the new county
comes from the city of Jackson,
as matter of course. 1t has
been an issue for many years,
and will continue to bob up SO
long as Kinds county remains a
double barreled county'-that
is, with a court house at Jackson
and at Raymond. The city Of
Jackson pays more than half of
the taxes of the county, and the
first district, in which Jackson is
located, pays about three-fourths
of the taxes of the entire county
of Kinds.
The citizens of the western
side of Rankin county are now,
and always have been, anxious
to Join hands with Jackson in
forming a new county, and are
expressing the nope IL VIII De
made a live issue in the present
campaign.
1t has been suggested by one
of the Legislative candidates
that the question of new coun-
ty be put before the people at a
special election to be held at an
early day as far ahead of the
August primary as possible, so
that the voters need not force an
expression from the candidates.
The suggestion is considered a
good one, but will hardly be
acted on at this time, so that IN

TYPHOID AT BAUXITE.
Health Officer Garrison Finds Water
 is Responsible.

Little Rock, Dec. 3.-Bauxi.e, just below Little Rock, where the mines Of the American Aluminumt company are located, contemplates the erection of a high school building next year.
 pr. e. w. Garrison, state health of ficer, visited BauXite this week at the solicitation of the company, to ex- anime into the causes of about 25 cases cf typhoid fever during the past summer. He found that all the cases originated where the victims drank water from springs and surface wells. There was no infection where hy- drant Watar was used exclusively. The company agrees to spend con- siderable money in extending the water system, and will probably put in a sewer system
