Jackson, Miss., Nov. 24.—A great stir hat been occasioned .In Mississippi by a letter that was read at Oulfport dur ing the meeting of the Daughters ot the Confederacy. This letter was writ ten to Mrs. Judge Kimbrough, of Greenwood, some time before Mrs. Jef. ferson Davis died, and Is alleged to be a defense of why she permitted the body <jt her husband to bo burled In Richmond and why she lived In New York Instead of Mississippi, her native state. In this letter she Is alleged to have passed some, severe criticism on former Governor Lowry, of this city, and other prominent Mlsslsslpplans for what she termed their hostility to her. General Lowry Is the commander of the Mississippi division of the United Con federate Veterans, and Is prominent In politics and social life. Mrs. Davis had been very much put out with Mis sissippi ever since the legislature short ly after the death of her husband re fused to grant her a pension, as was proposed by her friends. The bill was Introduced in the legislature, but was bitterly fought and never came up on tho floor. Somehow or other the letter that was read at Gulfport was never printed, and the newspapers have been making guesses at what It contained,, and those who havo seen the letter say that. these guesses are correct. Mrs. Kimbrough has been bombarded with letters and telegrams from papers In ahd out of the state, asking that the letter be given out for publication, and It Is probable thnt she may give It out wihln the next few weeks.

The defendants are to pay Miss Ashby (2,600 and the costs In the case. This, with their lawyers’ fees. It Is thought, will amount to about 25,000, Mias Ashby's condition Is Improving rapidly, but It is feared she will never have the use of her left arm, which was paralysed by the wound Inflicted tn her shoulder by a pistol bullet. Miss Ashby was returning from party In a buggy with another young woman and a man when the attempted assassination was made. The shot fired from ambush took effect in Miss Ashby’s shoulder and for a time the doctors despaired of her recovery. The two young men were arrested on suspicion. The price of light Is always going up and folks are always kicking. The price of milk has gone up. The price of coal.has gone up. The price of turkey has gone up.

"That’s what we expect you to do,” answered a member of the committee, and the fellow with the dire warning tied In humiliation. There's a consolation, even to the man who looks upon the wine when It Is red, and looks long and lovingly. It’s better for the saloon men to‘try to make up for the heavy license by rais ing the price than by cheapening the quality. I, Y. EXCHANGE ROOT OF STOCK GAMBLING DEAD CAROLINAN RATED MILLIONAIRE Greut preparations are made for the men’s meeting at the Baptist Taber nacle Bunday afternoon at 3 o'clock.

In speaking of Mr. Wicker's meetings this week, Dr. Broughton, the pastor of the Tabernacle, says: "There ha* never been an evangelist In Atlanta that surpasses Mr. Wicker for thorough work. He Is an able preacher, entertaining, Instructive, and deeply spiritual. He says some ot the funniest things In the most reverential way ot any man I know. He has great ly gripped our congregations. The Tab ernacle has been full almost at every service. I have had no trouble what ever about the audience since ho came. He will preach at 11 a. m, 3> p. m. and 8 at night. He will also preach every night during the coming week. We specially Invite the men, and boys over twelve, to the Sunday afternoon serv ice." In Us current Issue The Cotton Jour nal goes to the root of the evil and calls for the abolition of the New York Cotton Exchange, on the grounds that It Is a gambling Institution, pure and simple, and the daddy of organisations smaller and worse. The eplnner who buy# middling on the exchange and gets “dogtall" and a cheek to cover the difference Is com pared to a person who might purchase sheeting for future delivery, and when the time came would accept the same amount of mosquito netting and a cash rebate sufficient to make up for what was paid for the sheeting. The new department called "Prime Pickings From the Current Crop," which Is edited by Verner Jones, Is a page of paragraphs, grave and gay, well worth wading. __ _ „ With the current Issue The Cotton Journal Is six months old.

MONEY IN A NUTSHELL. Reed Pecan Grove. Tissue Shell Pecan Nuts. THE CROP THAT PAYS Neither frosts, drouths, rain* or heat affect the yearly augmenting produce of the Pecan Tree. The Reed Pecan Grove Is over ten years old. No waiting for results—the results are here. No off-seasons: every year hits. They grow ever Increasing barrels of nuts. Expense of buying land, purchasing trees, planting and cultivating, heretofote enormous, has ceased at the REED PECAN GROVE, i and there remains only 'the expense of gntliering and marketing and the thousands of tons ot hay mowed four times yearly, meet all expenditures. Listen to the opinions of newspapers, growers and marketers of the PECAN NUT Atlanta Constitution: “What else Is there. In all the realms of finance, manufacturing, trade or agri culture. to compare with the possibilities of pecan culture?” Atlanta Journal: "Georgia trees are-producing 220.00 worth of pecans. A crop never fatls. When an orchard Is established It means a fortune to the owners." / > Tlmes-Democrat. New Orleans, La.: "An Investment for a young man that will pay him twenty fold at middle age. and fifty fold when he growa old—an endowment for hts children and grandchildren—one that will j*y better than stocks, bonds, or any huslne** enterprise.*' Mississippi Horticultural Society: "One, pecan tree yielded this year over 1250.00 worth of nuts; one pecan tree grow over 1,000 pounds In one seasqp.” United States Department of Pomology: "The cultivation of pecan nuts will soon become the greatest and most profitable Industry." - » Department of Agriculture: ‘The pecan tree will bear annually for hundreds of years, and the yield Increase, with age.” Professor 11.

The market for the nuts Is unlimited." , Georgia Commission of Agriculture: "No Invsstmsnt could be better than planting pecans.” State Etymologist: "Many old people are planting the pecan tree for the sake of their children, and many young people are taking nn Interest In pecan culture because they expect to reap abundant reward." Stone A Co., Thoinnsvllte, Ga: “The pecan tree Is bejter than a lire Insurance policy, government bonds or a bnnk account." * J. T. Brown, Waycrose, Ga.: "A pecan grove Is better and surer than a life Insurance policy. The best inveatment anyone can make. I sold from a 12-year-ohl tree 388 worth of nuts." ft A. Halbert.

C.: "My trees at ten years, old bore at the rate of 3159 per acre. At fifteen year* the yield was (300 per acre. No Investment pays better than a pecan grove.” HOME EVIDENCE. West Point Inter-Btate Herald: "We have the Reed pecan grove, which ls one otthe finest and largest In the South. It Is Just beginning to bear nicety. There Is no reason why this grove should not make the owners and their children rich."

ASSOCIATED CHARITIES: JTMIIIIIHI *1 WHAT IT MEANS TO CITY B[|K[ |, pj, How the PubLc Can Aid Society in . Its Work. By RABBI DAVID MARX. The Associated Charities of Atlanta has no less an aim than to be of gen uine'service to the needy and dis tressed. Recognising that charity Is rather the dealing Justly with those who are Its recipients than the easing ot one’s cctisdenee or the satisfying of a generous heart, through thoughtless gifts to the worthy and unworthy alike, this organisation has wisely outlined Its general purpose to attack poverty by investigating the causes that lead to and hold tn dependency those who seek relief at Its hands. It Is not "only another society for alms-gtvlng.” It no established fund to be utilised for the needy, prefers to place the worthy poor In di rect touch with existing charity organi zations or with Individuals who desire to help the unfortunate. Its usefulness, therefore, depends In great measure upon the co-operatfon received from all churches, charity organisations, work ers amongst the poor and Individuals who desire to help those who are In want and are worthy of assistance. What the laboratory Is In the field of chemical and physical research, It* of- flee I* In this branch of sociology. In vestigative and determinative. Investi gating causes and dstermlnlng the best methods to be followed In doing the least harm and the greatest good to Its beneficiaries. Such a task Is of the highest Importance. It la an act of In justice to claaalfy all the needy under one head. There Is the needy man who ie so because he refuses to better his condition, and there Is the needy man who Is so because of weakness In one direction or another. Financial help to the former is a premium placed upon Idleness; to ths latter It may be a stay until he glows strong enough to light out unassisted the battle of life. Problem is Complex. The problem is complex In Its char acter and presents many divisions and sub-divisions. It demands In Its solu tion the continuous guidance, co-oper deep heart feeling and of clear mental outlook who, moreover nre willing to serve, but the demands of a busy world do not allow them sufficient time to de vote hour* dally to th* taak. And yet, the worthy needy ones are to be as sisted and must be assisted while frauds and chronic beggSrs must he wisely dealt with. Everybody’s busi ness soon becomes nobody's business, and as a result harm corns* to the com munity or the etate; the worthless re ceive the aid that should go to th, worthy, and continue to grow more worthless, while the beneficent, whose goodness of heart has been Imposed upon, defeats the very Intention of the gift and aids In pauperising men and women who. If properly dealt with, wqutd eoon learn the dignity of him who rejoices In the work of hts own bands. The Associated Charities has as IU objects. First, the thorough Investiga tion of all case* that come before It; second, the securing for applicants as sistance adapted to their condition; third, obtaining employment for ttiose able and willing to work: fourth, tho placing of those who are able to work and refuse to do so under proper cor rectional Influences; fifth, the protec tion of the public against the habitual beggar, the vicious and the fraud; sixth, the providing ot the poor with helpful friends whose patience. Influ ence and example will teach habit* of thrift, self-control and Independ ence. e - It Is a gigantic work and requires stout hearts and brave souls. Your co operation I* asksd. The plan Is simple. Before you extend help to an appll cant for relief Inquire at the office of the association for Information con cerning him. HIs rase may already be on record. If so, you will receive all information relative to him that the files contain. If hi* case Is not a re corded one, the office will make full Investigation for you, If you so deal re, and report to you. Should you per chance be assisting any case without tile aid of the office, co-operate with the office to the extent of reporting that you are caring for that case. There will he no publicity attached to such report- You will merely be safeguarding the office and the recip- Chlcago, Nov. 33.—At a meeting rff the general committee of Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, held at the Wel lington hotel yesterday.
