At the first sign OF reaction in Albany

But IL would not be surprising when
transit and other more pressing needs
are out of the way to see the New York
officials leading an assault on the State
capital on behalf of welfare projects
which no State administration could
give.
Much curiosity was expressed when IL
was learned that Mayor Hylan had gono
to Chicago for a rest" 1t was ex-

visit was made known. Mayor Thomp-

fire against Hearst by declaring he

opinions. The Hearst talk to-day so
disconnected the veteran East Side
leader that he nearly ruined his golf
game.
The Mayor and Mr.. Murphy were to-

no explanation was made. The Tam

of the New York Athletic Club and for<

Whelan were initiated into the, game of
golf. 1t was the Mayors first expert

This afternoon the Mayor went for
a long walk. Mr.. Whelan pursued his
favorite pastime with a cross-country
ride and Mr.. Murphy played golf in

Georges Clemenceau had some of the
happiest moments yesterday afternoon
that he has experienced since he arrived
in the United States. His old friend
Ignace Paderewski whom he had not
seen since the Peace Conference days
in Paris. visited him. gave and received
resounding smack on either cheek,
and then. though tired from concert
earlier in the day. played four selections
In the music room of the Gibson home.
Clemenceau's secretary, Louis Lefevre,
said that the greeting between the two
old friends was the most affectionate he
had ever seen. The minute Paderewski
came into the room Clemenceau began
apologiZing for not attending the con-
cert, as he had hoped to do, but Pade-
rewsh would not listen.
1T is ! that should have come to
you." he said. II have come. have
come to thank you from the bottom OF
my heart for your speech. 1t was
wonderful. 1t was superb. 1t was NOV
ing and 1t was touching"
NJ. Lefevre said that Nine. Pade-
rewska arrived at the house with her
husband in their car, but did not get out
of the machine. The pianist. however,
bounded up the steps in great excitement
and requested that he be allowed to see

ried to Clemenceau's room and asked IL
Paderewski should be sent UP.

1t has been six years since there

one case before this in town this fall,
and that Is among the negroes.
The germs are In the atmosphere

should use every precaution to keep

Parents of school children will
remember that the Shick Test was
given to their children last year. The
test Of this child, who has diphtheria
now, showed that she was not i'm

child to have its throat swabbed to
see II it has the germs, and do every
thing possible to keep them down.

JUDGE TANN IN
CHANCERY COURT
MAKES FAST TIME

Judge Tam, presiding in Chancery
Court. made record this week when
he disposed of work which ordinarily
would take two weeks in the short
time of two days.
The Pelahatchie Bank case. which
has been dragging along for the past
several months, was heard, and an
imposing array of legal talent was
lined up on each side.
W. FL Watkins and Judge j. r.
East were looking after the Banks
interests while Col Sidney Nc
Laurin, Judge Byrd and w. f. Nc

interests.
There were quite number of
cases disposed of by agreement of
attorneys. In the cases which did
go to trial the bank lost.
One case in particular, III. Nj.
Purvis ct al, attracted considerable
interest. This case appeared to be
the storm center, and the attorneys
for both sides made frequent and
heated arguments. The Purvis in
terests recovered a considerable sum
from the bank.
Three negro divorce cases were
settled to the apparent satisfaction
of all, as were number of ex parte
matters.
Judge Tam is proving one of the
most popular Chancery judges ever
to preside here, and the way In which
he handled all the cases which came
up before him at this term proves
that he is "A jurist of no mean ability.

HAY SHIPMENTS
ARE WATCHED TO
KEEP OUT WEEVIL

A. & NJ. College, Miss Nov. T.
Reports have been received at the
office of the State Plant Board that
certain hay dealers are recOnsigning
to Mississippi shipments of hay that
may have originated in states that
are infested with the Alfalfa Weevil.
George f. Arnold, Quarantine In
spectOr for the Plant Board is, there
fore sending the following letter to
each hay dealer who has received
Plant Board permits to ship hay in
to mississippi:
Gentlemen -
I'VE have recently received infOr-
nation that causes us to suspect that
some Of the firms who hold hay per-
mits have been making recoRsign-
ments of hay into Mississippi from
the states infested with the Alfalfa
Weevil. You will recall signing an
affidavit that you would not ship any
hay into this state that was grown
in the states of Colorado, Idaho
Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Wyoming
This affidavit states that you will be
positive of the exact locality In which
ali hay shipped into Mississippi is
grown, thereby eliminating the pos
sibility of an error which might al
low the shipment from one of the
above mentioned states.
I'VE wish to warn you that
thorough investigation will be made
TO determine if any firms have act
ually been making shipments from
the prohibited areas. We will i'm
mediately cancel the permits of all
firms found guilty of making such
shipments and start legal proceed
ings under authority of the state law.
In the enforcement of these regu-
lations we are endeayoring to protect
the alfalfa growing interests of our
state against Alfalfa Weevil. This
pest has never been found in Afissis
sippi and would cause a tremendous
loss To the alfalfa growers should 1t
ever become established here. 1t has
been estimated that the loss from
the weevil In some Of the states in
the Northwest totals about so per
cent of the alfalfa crop each year.
We feel that we are Justified In the
enforcement of quarantine against
Alfalfa .Weevil infested territory in
view of the injury caused by the
insect and in consideration of the
fact that the chief danger of intro
ducing it into this state would be in
shipments of hay from the infested
territory"
