know who the man was, or for what
purpose he had forced an entrance to
his home, except that Of robbery. He
reported the incident to the police

Killed on Railroad

On Sunday parties walking the
Mobile and Ohio track near the
Fertilizer factory found parts of
body of an unknown man. The
body was mutilated beyond rec
ognition. A hand-car was Sc
cured and several parties drove
over the railroad as far as Bald
wyn searching for the remainder
of the body. Evidence was found
all along the line that the party
fell from the train about the
time it left Baldwin and was
killed and dragged to the Fertil-
izer Factory. The party wore
black suit with black button shoes
and in one shoe $50 in currency
was found. The remains were
buried Monday in the cemetery
here by Marshall Robertson and
George Lumpkin. Wednesday
afternoon, Judge w. ]. Lamb, J.
C. Tyson, undertaken; and a
young man named Clarke, came
to Tupelo and after an examin-
alton of the clothing. young
Clarke decided that the party
was his brother, George Clarke,
who had left his home near Cor
inth Saturday morning and was
last seen at the railroad station
that afternoon at four O'Clock.
He was known to have had as
much as $100 in money. The
dead man belonged to a WELL
known family of Alcorn county.

Pension Fund Increased

Elsewhere will be found notice
from the Chancery Clerk in
which he states that the pension
certificates for the Confederate
Veterans are now ready to be
delivered.
The amounts received this
year will be the same for the
first and second classes. but the
general distribution of the
amounts for the general class
will be materially increased.
There are two pensioners of the
first class who will receive S125
on account of their total disabil-
ity; there are fifty who will re-
ceive S75 on account of their
partial disability. The general
class will get this year $50. IA,
an increase of Sl3 over the
amount received last year. The
legislature increased the appro-
priation this year by S25, 00c,
gnaking a total for the ear Of
s475, 600.
The states financial condition
makes it impossible to do just
what it should by our old veter-
ans. Some states pension all of
them regardless of whether they
are dependent or not. Missis.
sippi cannot do this because she
has not the money to meet every
necessary obligation. What is
done. however, is a great help 10
the old veterans who have 10
means of livelihood.
The three banks of Tupelo
have very generously consented
to pay off the warrants as soon
as they are received. There
is no money in the treasury to
meet these warrants, but the
banks will cash them on presen-
tation. Just at this time the old
soldiers are in need of some ready
cash and the warrants came at a
good time. The chancery clerk
has them all ready to be deliv-
cred as soon as called for.
We wish every veteran JOY
Gus Christmas, ane take pride in
being able to say that the state
has done better by them this
year than ever before.

HOW RED CROSS SEAL
IDEA CAME INTO BEING
Originating in Norway. Meth.
Cd was Taken up Here Nine
Years Ago
The w or k
for the Red
Cross locally
has beer done
through the
efforts of Mrs.
C.. w. TROY.

who has interested many of our
citizens in the importance of rails
ing funds to fight the White Pla-
que. She has thoroughly car
vassed the town with the view Of
raising $4,000, and of this
amount she has already raised
$500. If the $4,000 is raised,
Mrs. Troy will be permitted to
retain $500 for local work and
the town will have free of cost
the services Of a trained nurse
for ten days during the year 1917.
The children from the Tupelo
High School will solicit contribu-
tions through the residence por-
tion of the CITY. and all funds
paid to them will be turned over
to Mrs. Troy. The cause is so
worthy that every one should
feel that it is a privilege to give.
Following is a short history of
the work:
Over So. $50, 900 has been raised
by Red Cross Christmas Seals in
the last eight years, and yet
many people who will buy these
stickers at this ninth annual sale
do not know how this idea orig
mated.
While Red Cross Seals really
date back to the Civil War when
Charity Stamps" were first used
the first campaign to sell holiday
stickers for the tuberculosis fight
was only 9years ago in, Delaware.
Miss Emily P. Bissell of Wilmin-
ton read an article by Jacob Riis
describing stamrs used for tuber-
culosis work in Norway, and she
conceived the idea of a similar
plan here. Single handed, she
launched a sale which resulted in
So, 600 clear money. When Miss
Bissell tried to. convince the
Anne rican Red Cross that this
idea should be made national as a
peace activity Of that society, she
met with opposition. but finally
persuaded the authorities, with
the result that on an investment
of a few hundred dollars Sl35, :
600 worth of Seals was sold in
1903 and the great national cam
paign was launched. Since then
the sale has gone forward by
leaps and bounds. until now the
Red Cross Seal is an institution
in the United States, and offers
to everyone chance to help in the
peoples fight against the peo.
pies disc ase. Last year oyer 76,
U0O,00 Seals were sold, and this
year the American Red Cross and
The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tuber-
cuosis, who conduct the sale, are
out for a 100 100000 sale or ST.
000,000 for the tuberculosis War.
! The policy on which the sale is
conducted is that the money, ex-
ceot for the deduction of legiti-
mate expenses, shall remain in
the community where the Seals
are soId.'

Delights of Christmas
An Ancient Poem

When Christmas approaches each
bosom is gay,
That festival banishes sorrow away,
While Richard he kisses both Susan
and Dolly
When tricking the house up with
ivy and holly,
For never as yet it was counted a
crime
To re merry and cherry at that hap
Ply time.
Then come turkey and chine, with
the famous roast beef,
Of English provisions still reckoned
the chief.
Roger wishes the cook maid his
wishes to crown,
"Oh, Dolly, pray give me a bit of
the brown"
For never as yet it was counted a
crime
To be merry and cherry at that hap
py time
The luscious plum pudding does
smoking appear,
And the charming mince pie is not
far from the rear.
Then each ticks his chops to behold
such a sight,
For to taste it affords him superior
delight,
For never as yet it was counted a
crime
To be merry and cherry at that hap
py time.
Now the humming October goes
merrily round,
And each with good humor is hap
PLY crowned.
The song and the dance and the
mirth giving jest,
Hike without harm by each one is
expressed.
Tor never as yet it was counted a
crime

The man and the maid and the

Alike must be present to add to the
scene,
For never as yet it was counted a

May each be found thus as the year
circles round,
With mirth and good humor each

And may all who have plenty Of

With their bountiful blessings make
happy the poor,
For never as yet it was counted a
