don cemetery in the presence of
large gathering of friends and
relatives. A very impressive SER
vice was conducted at the grave
by DR.. Zeno Wall, of Jackson.
The battle royal did not pan out
as expected. Everything was
ready and willing except the
fighters, all of whom developed
severe case of cold feet when the
time arrived for them to go into
the ring. However, two or three
little bouts were pulled off which
seemed to satisfy the eager spec
tators. as
The biggest and best potato we
have seen for long time was
sent to us last week by Alvin

later.

The News prints in another col
umn of today's paper the propos-
ed amendments to the state con-
stitution, which will be submitted
to the voters on the End of No
vember for ratification or rejec-
ton. The most important one,
according to our views, is the one
relative to imposing a poll tax on
females. If this amendment is
defeated, negro women will be ell
igible to vote without restrict
ions Of any kind. Don't forget
this-vote for amendment to pro-

The failure of the Pelahatchie
Bank, which occurred last week,
is indeed very unfortunate, not
only for the institution, but for
practically every business man

that the amount will be large. We
understand that the failure of the
bank was due to the slump in the
lumber markets, in which indus
