IJitlc Bessie.
Karly on tlie morning of Aug. 20
1891 little Bessie Lillian, youngest
daugli'er of Mi. and Mrs. 11. W. Car
michael, went home to Heaven to dwell
among the Angels. Bessie was such
a s\\e,.t loving child that she had en
twined herself aiound our hearts so
strong that it is a hard struggle for us
to give her tqi.
(ill, how our hearts did bleed with
sorrow when they told us that B ssie
was gone.
Well do I remember, as well as oth
ers, her little cute sayings, and espec
ially Iter sweet little songs that she
had learned to sing so well. The tears
have been made to flow from tny eyes
when I have asked her to sing for me.
Two songs that she sang so beautiful
ly I remember were Sweet Bye and
Bye and at the Cross. She sang sosweet
ly here that I know she is holding her
little beckon big hands out beyond the
stars singing at the Cross aud waiting
for her loved ones, and iu the sweet
bye and bye to be clasped to their lov
ing bosoms again.
At the oarnpmeeting (1891) Bessie
was at each service but one or two and
seemed to enjoy it almost as well as
anybody, child as she was. Is it any
wonder then that the Savior who loved
little children so well when he was on
earth, that now lie is iu the glory world,
should want such a sweet singer as
Bessie to help swell the grand chorus
of the redeemed up above the Stars ?
1 would say to father and mother,
and all who loved Bessie so much, to
take courage Part have cross.* ! over
the river and are at rest, and Bessie’s
beautiful and beckoning hands are held
out, and singing home a' last, and wait
ing for you, and in the sweet bye and
bye all will be reunited in the glory
land.
Sleep on, loved one! bye and bye
we’ll meet you, and then we will know
why you were taken from us.

A Jail Full.
The criminal business that will be
brought before the Superior Court
next week promises to be unusually
large.
Sheriff Class has at this writing
twelve prisoners incarcerated in the
couuty jail. Of this number all are
negroes but two—Alex. Grotte and
young Speer. Besides these there are
several out on bond that will have to
appear for trial.
As Stated above the criminal business
promises to consume considerable time,
and Solicitor Womack will certainly
have his hands full.
“It is a Jim l*an<ly.”
Kent/. & Co’s Kail Koad Shows, Mu
seum, Menagerie and Hippodrome were j
largely patronized and enthusiastically
received by two great audiences which I
greeted them last Saturday. It is su- j
perior to the average shows, as the
cash-in advance subscription list is to j
the old time pay-when-you get ready j
style. “It is a Jim Dandy and don’t
you forget it.” One ticket admits to all
these excellent shows, and either one
contains more of merit than some whole
shows of far greater pretentions. It
has the “cinch” on the show business
and no mistake aud we extend cordial
welcome whenever the notion occurs to
visit us again. The gentlemanly cour
tesy of all connected with the entire
outfit is not one of its least commenda
ble features. Grand Uupids Kagle.

'Y* "
Let Everybody Come and see the Newest
Styles and prepare their Nerves to hear the
Startling Prices!
Solution of the Question of the Hour:
The way to make 7c cotton go as far as 10c cotton is to
buy your goods at
The New York Store in Jackson.
The New York people were anxious to sell—time was
short—money was needed—they were compelled to sell.
Our Buyer struck the market at its most critical moment,
and well, he was kind enough to pay the freight on them
home. Rest assured the Bottom was scraped. In
fact, we have marked down lots of goods already in stock
because the new goods were so much cheaper.
Sliocs. Boots. Siloes.
Here is a bonanza to the people who buy and wear Shoes.
Our Buyer lound them —nobody was around—and he picked
them up.
Let Prices do the Talking:
All solid Leather flesh split Boots, only $1.25 pair; just
think of it, worth $2.00 any and everywhere. A splendid
child’s Grain Cap Toe Shoe, sto 8, only 35cts a pair. Did
you ever? The same shoe sells for 50c ts everywhere.
Brogan Shoes only 75HS pair—jewhilikins! they sell ev
everywhere else for $1.25, and arc advertised as bargains.
Women’s Dongola Button Shoes only 1.25 pair, the same
that sell for 1.75 elsewhere. Ladies Fine Dongola Button
Dress Shoes lor only 1.50, worth 2.00 elsewhere. The best
woman’s eyery day Shoe in the world for 1.00.
Boys’ Balmoral Shoes at only 7fcts, worth r. 25 the world
over. The above are blood curdling prices, and are
paralizers to would he competitors. Besides these special
ties is a full *md complete stock of Boots and Shoes from
the following well known manufacturers —
Zeigler Brothers,
East New York Shoe Co.,
Charles Heisler,
Bay State Shoe & Leather Co.,
Marcey Bros. & Co.,
Eagle Shoe Co.
All of which we will sell at prices that cannot he touched
by those who handle jobbers’ shoes. No misrepresentations
allowed—prefer to miss your trade to losing your confidence.
[Straight lorword dealing straight from the shouldci is our
: motto.
Jackson is the place to sell your cotton, The New York
Store the place to buy your goods.
