CUTTING WEEDS AND GRASS.

Toe street force have begun cutting
| the weeds and grass in the cutters ~ d
bitches and cleaning out the openings
at the street crossings, making it possi-
bic for the water to get through and
drain off, and destroying some Of the
breeding places Of mosquitoes and iIrrs
This is being done after considerable
unnecessary delay, but we are glad to
see the good work started. and hope
the Street Commissioner will keep
enough men industriously engaged at It
until the whole city is thoroughly clean
ed up and put in first class sanitary con
dition.
In the meantime, property owners
and renters of property have been warn
ed to cut the weeds and grass on their
respective lots. and very few of them
seem to be paying any attention to the
warning. Tomorrow, the 10Th inst,
has been set for n thorough inspection
Of the city by the authorities, and they
should see to it that the order Of the
Street Department is respected.
If we are to have q healthy city it is
absolutely necessary that the sanitary
laws are rigidly enforced

REV. J. W. YOUNG INSTALLED AS
EVANGELIST.

On the evening of July Srd called
meeting of Central Mississippi Presby-
terry convened with the Itta Bena
church. Rev. G r. Gillespie, of Lexiug-
ton, Miss, presided. Stating the pur.
pose for which presbytery had been call
ed, was to ordain Rev. J. W. Young as
an evangelist Rev. Gillespie = remarks
touching the relation of minister and
people were, very impressive. Rev.
Joseph Rennie, of Greenwood, Miss,
preached the ordination sermon, which
was an able presentation of the duties
of a minister in his discourse he gave
an account of Paul's Vision when b."
was called to- be servant of Jesn.
Christ. He clearly showed that ever.
one called to be minister of the Cos.
pei should catch this Heavenly Vision.
Rev. F. R. Graves, ID, Of Grcenvilla,
Miss. delivered the charge to Rev. J. W.
Young in most impressive manner.
The music was exceptionally good.
Miss Annie Mai Thomas presided at the
organ. s..
The solo rendered by Miss Edith Cecil
Rennie, of Greenwood, was enjoyed by
all.-Itta Bena News, July 9TH.

SUPREME COURT UPsETS ANoTH
ER BILBo SCHEME.

jackson, Miss, July s.--The Missis
sippi supreme Court now stands formal
ly and officially adjourned until the see
ond Monday in October, this being the
final order made today at the advanced
final session, which was to have been
held on Monday, but for reasons deemed
sufficient was changed to today. The
court sat en- banc, with all members on
hand except Judge Clayton Potter.
whose cases were handed down by jus.
tiee Cook.
Some so cases were handed down.
leaving in the consultation rooms of the
two divisions some two-seore cases, IN
addition to what is left on the docket
unsubmitted. Answering an inquiry of
Chief Justice Smith, Deputy Clerk
Brown stated that, there are left on the
docket between 700 and 800 cases
which have not been reached, which
prompted the Chief Justice to remark:
THAT is good. When We adjourn
next year, it is reasonable to hope tha,
by keeping up the same rate of progress
this court will be nearly up with its
work.
The court ovcrruled the suggestions OF
error in the cases involving the action
Of the State Board Of Health in sum
marily removing David Mcdowell ~
Factory Inspector and DR.. f. b. Poolr
as Health Officer for Kinds County
which had hitherto been decided in fav-
or of the custer officials but were held
up while counsel for the losing side
prepared and filed their suggestions of
error.
Under this ruling, there is nothing
for it except the recognition of the
claims of the two officers to the compen-
sation which has been withheld from
for six month, owing to the ill.advisrd
action Of the new Board of Health in
undertaking to "play politics"
Among the cases carried over to the
October term next ensuing-is that in
yolving Il construction of the Hcmphill
act invalidating the several suits filed
by J. c. Johnson, former Revenue Agent
to enforce payment Of back taxes as
sessed on buyers and holders of cotton
after Feb. l for a period of six years,
from 1909 to 1915, inclusive. As stated
by members of the court, they wanted
to take more time to look into thi,
case, and meanwhile no interests will
suffer by reason of the delay.

LETTER TO GERMAN conference
POPE BENEDICT WRITES TO THE
GERMAN BISHOPS.

Pope Benedict has written letter
to Cardinal Won Hartmann, Archbishop
of Cologne, and other members of the
German hierarchy assembled at F'ulda
in their annual conference, thanking
them for the message of homage and
loyalty which they sent him on the &C.
casion of the second anniversary of
his election to the supreme See of st.
Peter. He proceeds to express his
keen regret that his appeals for peace
made amidst the cruel slaughter have
been SO far misunderstood that some
have even thought that his object is,
not to bring about a restoration of
peace in justice, but to obtain some
profit for himself, forgetting that the
Roman Pontiff's only desire must be,
as the Vicar on earth of the King of
Peace, solely to, do his utmost unceas-
ingly to restore peace for all who arc
engaged in war. his only aim being to
benefit humanity.
The Holy Father also thanks the
German bishops for the efforts they
have made to lessen the sufferings of
the war victims; and he urges prayer,
children's communions, and peniten-
tial works as the most efficacious
means of obtaining pity from God in
the direction of putting an end to the
awful scourge of war

PROTESTANT PROPAGANDA
ATTEMPT MADE TO INFLUENCE
ITALIAN SOLDIERS.

There is Protestant Action" as we'll
as Catholic Action" From Verona,
Italy, comes warning that little
pamphlet is being distributed freely
among the soldiers, of whom the
town is full. 1t seems to be an insid-
ious little thing, not openly advertis-
ing itself as Protestant, not openly at
lacking the Catholic faith, but preach
ing doctrine all the more dangerous,
as many might read it who would
throw the book away at once, if aware
of its heresy. 1t says to the soldier:
Don't bother yourself at all. Go on
fighting and be quite sure that all that
is necessary to get you to Paradise is
to believe in Christ. He does all; you
need do nothing No need to regulate
your conduct. Confession is an absur-
dity; SO is prayer; SO are all the other
things that the priests are SO fond of
telling you about"
While the Italian Catholic press is
wise in sounding the note of alarm, Il
is very doubtful if one Catholic Ital-
ian soldier in million is moved from
his faith by these Protestant efforts.
While you might, doubtless, tie him
in knot by clever exposition of
what you may call theology, tell him
he need not go to confession, and he'll
say at once you are lying.
