NEW RULING ON ILLICIT
STILLS BY u. S. COURT
Land Owner Guilty If Still Is Found
On Land is Ruling Made BY The
u. S. Supreme Court.

Washington, D. C.-Prohibition en-
forcement officials in Mississippi are
much gratifed over the news that the
United States Supreme Coat has
made g ruling to the effect that when
an Illicit still is found it constitutes
prima facie evidence that the owner
is guilty Of illicit distilling.
This will make it much easier for
the prohibition enforcement officers
to secure convictions in the courts.
for in many instances where stills
are captured it is impossible to legal
ly establish the ownership thereof.
Lawyers point out that this decis-
ion makes it very hazardous for land
owners to allow whiskey to be made
on their land, as it not only subjects
them to indictment and conviction.
but that it carries with it forfeiture
of the lands on which illicit stills are
operated.
This is matter that is apt to stir
up much feeling and deep resentment
because of the fact that in many in
stances stills are clandestinely oper-
ated on wild lands owned by nom
residents, as well as persons who are
opposed to violations of the Volstead
act as anyone can be, and who are
wholly powerless in the matter and
absolutely without cognizance of the
lcatiOn of such stills on their prop
erty.
This ruling goes even further than
the new Mississippi statute which
makes possession of a still, or any
part thereof, prima facie evidence of
guilt. In the new state law, however
possession must be proven.

MASONS TO ERECT new
MASONIC TEMPLE
Mclean Lot on Main Street Pur-
chased. Young Blood Takes The
Initiative. Planned 30 Have Read
ing Room ard Other Things When
New Temple is Complete.

The Masonic fraternity of Grenada
has been dreaming and dreaming for
a long while that at some time III
the future it would erect handsome
Temple in Grenada for its uses. A
few weeks ago some of the younger
blood Of the Order concluded that it
was time to cease to dream and to
put wishes into action. and thus it
was that action was taken which re-
suited in the naming of a committee
to consider the matter of the pur-
chase Of suitable lot upon which
to build a new Masonic Temple.
At a stated communication of the
Masons held Monday night, that COM
mlttee made its report, which, among
other things, showed that it had op-
tions on three lots. One of the lots
was the Mclean property occupied by
Mrs. W. G. Richardson just across
from the post Office and on the corner
of Main and Second Streets. Anoth-
er was the lot just in the rear of the
First Baptist church and the third lot
was where the old Pass store was
located on First or Depot Street.
When the report of the committee
was read, some one followed with
motion that the Mclean lot be bought
and the Lodge voted almost unani-
mously to buy that lot.
1t is not thought that work on a
new building will be begun any time
real soon, nevertheless all plans are
expected to work to that end, and just
as early as possible. 1t is understood
that a handsome Temple is to be
erected, one that can be used in part
for a reading room for the town and
that will serve the community in 9TH
er ways. Big plans are in mind which
if they materialize will give Grenada
Temples in the State.

WELL KNOWN CITI-
ZEN PASSES AWAY.

Mr.. J. NJ Hudson died at 4:4E
O'Clock on Wednesday afternoon al
the home of his son. DIR. A. G.. Hud.
son, in Memphis. His remains reach.
ed Grenada on /. G. train No. 3, on
Thursday and were carried out to
his old home near Graysport, and
laid to rest beside others of his fami-
ly who have passed away.
Mr.. Hudson was II years of age
He was born at Pine Valley, Yalo-
busha County, where he remained
until he was about Is years old,
when he moved to Water Valley, and
where he lived until he moved to
Grenada County, in 1883. His wife
was Miss Estelle Williams of this
County. He left his farm and came
to Grenada in 1913.
Mr.. Hudson was by nature and by
training a kindly disposed and a
generous minded man. He endeavor-
ed to live at peace with his neigh
bors and with the world and to stand
for those things in society which he
thought the best moral sentiment Of
the community endorsed and which
he believed squared with the teach
ings of the Bible. He was an oblig-
ing and an exceedingly considerate
neighbor and friend. He was sympa-
thetic and thoughtful. He was mind
full of the sick and the needy and it
was his aim to SOW seeds that would
bring forth that fruit that pleased
his Maker. In the years ago he
identified himself with the Presby-
terian church and as the years pass
ed his faith grew brighter and his
devotion to his church increased.
The funeral services were conducted
by his pastor, Rev. J. R. Cunningham,
who paid fitting tribute to the life
of the deceased. Mr.. Hudson is sur
vived by his wife and two children,
both Of whom are married, DR.. A. G..
Hudson and Mrs. R. c. Rhodes, of
Winslow, Arizona.
To the bereft The Sentinel tenders
the sincerest sympathy.

AMERICAN LEGION MINSTREL
REVUE PLEASES AUDIENCE
Matinee and Evening Performance
Last Monday Wins Approval. En-
tire Cast Made Up of Amateurs.
Attendance Not a. Large az Ex.
pected.

The Minstrel Revue staged bv tn,
members of Jim Trimble Post No. 35
The American Legion, on last Monda,
for two performances at the Grenada
Opera House was highly pleasing tc
all who had the pleasure of attend
ing the show. The entire cast was
made up of local boys and girls, al
of whom acquitted themselves with
great credit.
The Revue was divided into five
| episodes or acts and each drew its
share of the liberal applause. The
first number was the oldtime minstrel
first part with spirited repartee and
snappy songs. The blackface comedi-
ans were Messrs. Donald Sharp, A. M.
Weaver, Bob Townes and Roy Mitch
ell who delighted the audience with
their amusing antics and ridiculous
anecdotes. The musical numbers were
especially good.
In the second episode, the sketch,
Getting Acquainted with Miss
Eunice Jones as the girl and William
Wright as the boy, with the assistance
OF a beautiful chorus, drew much ap-
plause, being repeatedly encored.
The Aylophone selections by Mr..
Johnnie Wagner, in the third part,
were highly entertaining.
"Nothin' But Rice" was the act
that seemed to please the audience
more than any other. William
Wright as a young man with ideas.
and his dusky valet, Phillup With
grub, played by Roy Mitchell, are in
CHINA seeking fame and fortune, or
rather the former is after riches while
the latter desires nothing more than
plenty of "eats," claiming that he has
had nothing more satisfying than rice
since he arrived in that Oriental coun-
try. He brought down the house"
numbers of times with his comical do
ings and sayings. Miss Estes CAL
houn, as the Mandarin's daughter. en-.
tertained with her excellent rendition
of several song selections.
The last act, "Circus Day in Dixie"
was a "nigger" act that received
generous share of applause.
Although the crowds were not as
large as had been expected and that
had been hoped for, those that saw
the show were well pleased. The
gentleman who directed the rehearsals
and who had charge of all details of
the entertainment, Mr.. F. S. Wiki
nsOn, was young man of pleasing
personality and made many friends
turing his short stay here who will
give him cordial welcome should his
work bring him back for a return visit |
