St. Bernard College
Installs Pipe Organ

ST. Bernard October 0.-(Special.) 1.-The
beautiful new pipe organ which has been
recently installed in the college chapel
was used for the first time at the services
last Sunday afternoon. The dedication
services took place in the college chapel
at p. M, at which the Right Rev.
Father Abbot officiated. Immediately pre-
cedng the services Father Abbot deliv-
cred a splendid address, in which he re-
counted the wonderful work done by the
Catholic church in the cause of music,
and showed that the church is not adj
verse to any Improvement that tends to
beautify the divine service. He then
blessed the new organ and dedicated it in
honor of ST. Gregory. A hymn, "Laudi-
bus Gives" was then sung by the monks
assembled in the sanctuary. This was
followed by two organ numbers, Com
munion" and PROFESSIONAL of e. Ba-
tiste, played by Rev. FIR. Sylvester, o. S.
B., in which the beautiful tone effects of
the new instrument were ably displayed.
The services were concluded with the
benediction Of the Blessed Sacrament,
given by Rev. FIR. German, o. S. B.,
followed by the "Te Deum' irf English,
sung by all assembled.
The organ was built at Brattleboro, VT,
and cost approximately $1,000.

Lamar County Must Solve
Problem of Building Road

Columbus, Miss, October 30-(Special.)
The Mississippi route Of the proposed
Jackson highway is being jeopardized on
account of the fact that there is a
small stretch in Lamar equity, Alabama,
which has not yet been completed. 1t
seems that this county has already is
sued bonds amounting to 60 per cent
of the assessed valuation of it's prop
erty, and as this is the legal limit Of
ficials are hesitating about increasing the
Indebtedness of the county 1t is UNDER
stood, however, thatother counties have
exceeded this limit and some Lamar
county citizens are in favor of issuing the
bonds A party of officials of the county
recently visited Columbus for the purpose
Of consulting local attorneys and finan-
ciers with the view Of obtaining their
opinion as to whether or not the bonds
could be readily sold if issued. The mat
ter was taken under advisement and an
opinion will later be given.

pint of red ink" for about 70 cents. But
even then, the head waiter had to be
convinced that was not tightwad.
But a presidential election night is a
new one on me, and 1 am getting ''on'
nicely. Already 1 have discovered that
the only way in which can dine near
enough to the general celebration to hear
the noise, is to do a Wallingford and
awaken a millionaire in the morning.
| Judging from what the head walters
tell me, a great many people engaged
their tables for the coming occasion, when
Mr.. Wilson first became connected with
Princeton university, taking a chance
that ne would one day be a candidate
for reelection as President Of these
United States.
However, the existing conditions of af-
fairs has it's compensations. This head
walters have been kind enough to give
me a peep at the menus, here and there,
and the prices are attached. These lit
tie glimpses have done a lot toward
making me resigned. After all, why
should I go about worrying myself into
condition of melancholia just because
can't find an opportunity to spend soo
or more for an average meal, with two
or three friends?
OF course, in addition to the meal, there

have the pleasure of fixing the head
waiter so he wouldn't insult me; l would
be permitted to hand my own waiter
about Is per cent Of the bill, which would
probably win me one of his rare smiles;
the hat boy would look at me as ii he
really were interested in me, after I had
paid him for annoying me by taking my
hat and coat and making me worry
about whether he would get them mixed
with some other fellows outer coverings,
and / would have a chance to lose as
much sleep as I cared to. and be re-
warded for it by a headache sufficient
to incapacitate me for doing this clever
stuff the next morning.
But, on the other hand, she is all work
ed up to it, and feels certain that we are
booked for the White Lights while they
count Mr.. Wilson into office again for
another four-year term. Ordinarily,
could compromise on a movie, but on
election night, 4 am informed, nothing
of the kind would be accepted in good
faith. If only one of my liberal Birming-
ham friends would show up about No
vember 5 1 would make it a party, and
give him chance to entertain one of the
finest feathered fowls that ever graced
the Broadway Poultry farm.
And my condition represents that OF
many men now here, ana awaiting cleo
ton night Hotels and restaurants will
be jammed to their super-capaclty,
Broadway will be thronged to the point
of blockade, and many other thor
oughfares will be usurped by pedestrians,
both as regards sidewalks and driveways.
Preparations for the big event are every
where in evidence, and nothing but q
tidal wave over the island can stop the
biggest outburst, November Z, that New
York city has never known on similar
occasion.

THOUGHT TO BE DESPERATE

That Chelzceski is desperate crimi-
nal is evidenced by the fact that when
Jailer Sharp went to his cell this evening
he found concealed therein a bludgeon,
which the prisoner had made by filling
two socks with cement, it evidently hav-
ing been his intention to assault the
jailer when he visited his cell later in
the evening to bring his supper, thus
creating an opportunity for escape. This
is why guards were placed over the man,
as the officers have no intention Of al
lowing him get away.
There is a reward of $3.50 for the cap
ture of the May Goodwin's murderer,
and while local police will it is expected,
claim this reward it is also understood
that Richmond Baker, the negro sexton
of the church in which Chelzceski was
found, will likewise endeavor to secure a
portion of this money.

COLUMBUS POLICE
THINK THEY HAVE
WANTED MURDERER
Man Answering Description
of Memphis WOman's
Slayer Found in Belfry
of Negro Church

Columbus, Miss, October SO-(Special)
Securely handcuffed and closely guarded,
a white man who says he is Haraloff
Chelzceski, but who the police believe
has given an assumed name, is confined
in the county Jail here awaiting positive
identification as the slayer of May Good
win, the we'll known Memphis courtesan,
who was killed in her apartments in the
Fluff City several weeks ago. Che1zceski
was arrested in the belfry of negro
church in north Columbus last night
having had on his person two revolvers
and other implements used by burglars.
MEMPHIS POLICE NOTIFIED
This morning local citizens who had
kept up with the Memphis tragedy, and
who had read descriptions of May Good
wins slayer, became convinced that he
was the perpetrator of the crime, and
upon their suggestion local authorities
placed themselves in communication with
the Memphis police. The officers gave
the Bluff City officials brief descrip-
ton of the prisoner, stating that he had
a likeness of nude woman tattooed on
his arm. They were then asked by the
Memphians if the man also had ring
tattooed on one of his fingers, and an
examination of the digit found such an
emblem traced thereon in indellible ink.
This convinced Chief Oliver Perry, of the
Memphis police department, that Chel-
zceski is the man wanted for the Good
win murder, and he stated that the de-
tective, Al Hurst, would be sent here i'm
mediately for the purpose of positively

four trains were ranged alongside the

The spent the afternoon leaning out OF
the windows, gossiping. They swapped
tobacco and rations and lies, and swore
eternal friendship.
OF course the enforced idleness finally
got on their nerves and bred dissensOn,
but not between the states. That, to the
soldier mind, would have been the height
of i'll manners and in very bad taste SO
the Georgians fought Georgians and Ala
bamians fought Alabamians and every
body had a good time, with no kick COM
ing. No damage was done and the day
passed pleasantly enough.
HUNTING JACK RABBITS
Sometime during the night our train
moved up to Pumpville, and there found
the first battalion of our regiment,
Major Bare commanding, held up waiting
for the bridge to be built. The Georgians
came up soon after, and the whole 1000
or more men were turned loose in the des-
ert to enjoy themselves This place is
called Pumpville because there Is pump
there, with water tank and house for
the pump man. There is nothing else but
rocks and cactus. The boys in roaming
about discovered that rabbits abounded,
and then was held the biggest rabbit
hunt that can be imagined.
The sight of hundreds of wild young
fellows yelling and whooping and chasing
around after some scores of frenzied jack
rabbits was a rare one, indeed. Strange
to tell several rabbits were knocked over
with rocks as they doubled about in their
efforts to escape. One of the hunters
caught two nice looking snakes, which
he wore proudly twined about his neck,
and intends to keep as pets.
No auxiOuS narant or sweetheart need
have any doubts as to the boys enjoying
their trip. They are enjoying every
minute of it. They are learning what a
big country this is that they have sworn
to defend and hardly a one of them
would have missed the trip for any price.
