At tlie Manse Monday evening the ladies of the Presbyterian church ten- dered the students a reception, that proved a charming social event The yard and gallery were lighted with lanterns anil torches, and the dining room am! parlors decorated with flow- ers. During the evening the guests, who numbered all the students and the society people of the town generally, thronged the house ami lawn, prome- nading, trying their skill at archery, sending up balloons, playing crokinole, or enjoying interesting tete-a-tetes un- tler the spreading oaks, the Port Gibson Silver Band all the while discoursing sweetly music that lent enchant- ment to the scene. An interesting feature which the young folks entered into most heartily was the guessing contest for the number of beans in a glass jar, ami voting a handsome cake to the most popular boy at the Academy. Eugene Currys guess carne nearest the number—800ami he was awarded a handsome scarf pin. E. A. Scott re- ceived the highest number of votes as a popular student and took the cake. Ices were served during the entire ev- ening. Mr. and Mrs. Brownlee enter- tained most delightfully, and the annual reception will henceforth be looked for- ward to with eager anticipations. CHAMBER LAIR-HUHT. Good Enough for Us. Oen'L Walthalls friends have er- ory reason to believe that be will con- sent to a re-election to the senate, if his return is demanded-as it cer- tainly will be. To encourage his •upporters, as well as those of Gen. George, to vote the old ticket straight, we make this extract from a private letter writteu by a promi- nent Claiborne county citizen now at Hot Springs, Ark. t GenI. Wal- thall is here now, and this letter is prompted by a conversation I had with him yesterday. I told him that when I left home it was the determi- nation of Claiborne to return him to the senate. He expressed his grati- fication, and said many other ooun- ties were doing the same thing. Now, it is very clear that if the people will only say they want Walthall lie will servo them as faithfully in the future as iu the pest. He is too big a man to lose as the representative of Mis- sissippi in the U. S. Senate.That should be sufficient. George and Walthall are good enough for us. -Toe Late. In answer to the Reveilles inquiry as to what response the executive committee had received from George, Walthall, Bnrkitt and Allen, who were invited to address the citizens of Claiborne county, Chairman T. J. Aby replies that Burkitt and Allen have not been heard from, and sub- mits letters from George and Wal- thall, each saying he cannot come to this county until later. After the election on July 4th, we shall need no speakers. The votes of our rep- resentatives will have been decided. Louis Hoffman Hardware Co,, $ereillç. DISTRICT ATTORNEY.

Chaney in the academic and Tom E Kelley in the preparatory contests won golden opinions by their very* excellent decla- mations, and if tliey did not quite reach the medals they have the satisfaction of having captivated the audience. lion. John McC. Martin delivered a thoughtful, scholarly address, filled with wise admonitions to the students. His theme was books.He presented a powerful plea for an elevation of youth- ful taste in reading and counseled a close study of history and philosophy as a preparation for and guide to lifes earnest work. He was listened to with marked attention. The delivery of distinctions, certifi- cates and medals by Prof. Guthrie, as- sisted by Profs. Pollitt and Anspach, was the crowning feature in the estima- tion of the boys. Below is appended a . »-PUE DEEEHTO- We me authorized to announce B. A.

In report of the Brandywine demo- cratic club moeting, a few days «go, appeared this : Resolved that our representatives in the next legislature be urged to pass a fonr wire fence law for district five.We are inform- ed that the club failed to pass the resolution quoted, but left the ques- tion open until after the primary. Mississippi will make a strong ef- fort to have the proposed Jefferson Davis monument located within her borders. Jackson has already put in a bid for the monument, and appoint- ed a committee to confer with Mrs. Davis on the subject. There is noth- ing small about Jacksons gall. She already lias the capitol, the lunatic asylum, the deaf, dumb and blind in- stitute, the Millsapscollege, the Confederate monument, a candidate for the Unitod States senate, and the Clarton Ledger. She lias curiosities enough. Deputy Sheriffs P, D. Mullins and M. 0. Jones shot and killed an in- offensive negro at Wesson Saturday. They were at the depot looking for a negro accused of assault on a white woman. When the train stopped a negro got off from the rear of the bag- gage car where he had been stealing a ride. Thinking him the man they wanted, the sheriffs fired when the negro started to run, and shot him to death. He was a saw mill hand from Bogue Chitto. E. L. Alford, a young man w1m> recently disappeared from Shreveport La., under mysterious circumstances and was supposed to have been murdered, wandered into a convict camp near Greenville, Miss., Satur- day in a half demented and terribly emaciated condition, begging for morphine to alleviate his pain. He remembers nothing of his departure from Shreveport. The case is a deep mystery. Hancock countys financial condi- tion is splendid. There is $15;000 in the treasury and the county does not owe a cent. Meridian tUandard. That shows bad management, rather. A county should have no money over and above its actual ex- penses. Claiborne owes no man anything and has abont $3,500 in her treasury, but the approaching circuit oourt and the bridges we are building will consume the surplus. A few more days,» few more days,then comes the millenium in politics. The alliance of Hickory Ridge will en- tertain all of the candidates, cum multis on Tuesday, June 30th.

a prominent feature at the academy and

is a power for good among the boys.

RECEPTION MONDAY EVENINO.

At tlie Manse Monday evening the

ladies of the Presbyterian church ten­

dered the students a reception, that

proved a charming social event The

yard and gallery were lighted with

lanterns anil torches, and the dining

room am! parlors decorated with flow­

ers. During the evening the guests,

who numbered all the students and the

society people of the town generally,

thronged the house ami lawn, prome­

nading, trying their skill at archery,

sending up balloons, playing crokinole,

or enjoying interesting tete-a-tetes un-

tler the spreading oaks, the Port Gibson

Silver Band all the while discoursing

sweetly music that lent enchant­

ment to the scene. An interesting

feature which the young folks entered

into most heartily was the guessing

contest for the number of beans in a

glass jar, ami voting a handsome cake

to the most popular boy at the Academy.

Eugene Curry’s guess carne nearest the

number—800—ami he was awarded a

handsome scarf pin. E. A. Scott re­

ceived the highest number of votes as a

popular student and took the cake.

Ices were served during the entire ev­

ening. Mr. and Mrs. Brownlee enter­

tained most delightfully, and the annual

reception will henceforth be looked for­

ward to with eager anticipations.

CHAMBER LAIR-HUHT.Good Enough for Us.Oen'L Walthall’s friends have er-

ory reason to believe that be will con­

sent to a re-election to the senate, if

his return is demanded—-as it cer­

tainly will be. To encourage his

•upporters, as well as those of Gen.

George, to vote the old ticket

straight, we make this extract from

a private letter writteu by a promi­

nent Claiborne county citizen now at

Hot Springs, Ark. t “Gen’I. Wal­

thall is here now, and this letter is

prompted by a conversation I had

with him yesterday. I told him that

when I left home it was the determi­

nation of Claiborne to return him to

the senate. He expressed his grati-

fication, and said many other ooun-

ties were doing the same thing. Now,

it is very clear that if the people will

only say they want Walthall lie will

servo them as faithfully in the future

as iu the pest. He is too big a man

to lose as the representative of Mis­

sissippi in the U. S. Senate.”

That should be sufficient. George

and Walthall are good enough for us.

-Toe Late.In answer to the Reveille’s inquiry

as to what response the executive

committee had received from George,

Walthall, Bnrkitt and Allen, who

were invited to address the citizens

of Claiborne county, Chairman T. J.

Aby replies that Burkitt and Allen

have not been heard from, and sub­

mits letters from George and Wal­

thall, each saying he cannot come

to this county until later. After the

election on July 4th, we shall need

no speakers. The votes of our rep­

resentatives will have been decided.

The hall was, as usual, packed to the

doors with a crowd in which a large

number of visitors from/a distance

united with home folks in doing honor

to the boys. ,, ,

There is always necessarily more or

less sameness about commencements,

but the public never tires of oratorical

contests among its sons. The young

gentlemen acquitted themselves admir­

ably last eveoing ami the générons ap­

MUSIC.

The medals in declamation were

awarded Shelton J. Smith and E. A.

Gordon, both Port Gibson boys of whom

we are all justly proud. B. E. Chaney

in the academic and Tom E Kelley in

the preparatory contests won golden

opinions by their very* excellent decla­

mations, and if tliey did not quite reach

the medals they have the satisfaction of

having captivated the audience.

lion. John McC. Martin delivered a

thoughtful, scholarly address, filled with

wise admonitions to the students. His

theme was “books.” He presented a

powerful plea for an elevation of youth­

ful taste in reading and counseled a

close study of history and philosophy

as a preparation for and guide to life’s

earnest work. He was listened to with

marked attention.

The delivery of distinctions, certifi­

cates and medals by Prof. Guthrie, as­

sisted by Profs. Pollitt and Anspach,

was the crowning feature in the estima­

tion of the boys. Below is appended a

McCaleb.A Correction.

In report of the Brandywine demo­

cratic club moeting, a few days «go,

appeared this : “Resolved that our

representatives in the next legislature

be urged to pass a fonr wire fence

law for district five.” We are inform­

ed that the club failed to pass the

resolution quoted, but left the ques­

tion open until after the primary.

Mississippi will make a strong ef­

fort to have the proposed Jefferson

Davis monument located within her

borders. Jackson has already put in

a bid for the monument, and appoint­

ed a committee to confer with Mrs.

Davis on the subject. There is noth­

ing small about Jackson’s gall. She

already lias the capitol, the lunatic

asylum, the deaf, dumb and blind in­

stitute, the Millsaps’ college, the

Confederate monument, a candidate

for the Unitod States senate, and the

Clarton Ledger. She lias curiosities

enough.

Deputy Sheriffs P, D. Mullins and

M. 0. Jones shot and killed an in­

offensive negro at Wesson Saturday.

They were at the depot looking for a

negro accused of assault on a white

woman. When the train stopped a

negro got off from the rear of the bag­

gage car where he had been stealing

a ride. Thinking him the man they

wanted, the sheriffs fired when the

negro started to run, and shot him to

death. He was a saw mill hand from

Bogue Chitto.

E. L. Alford, a young man w1m> recently disappeared from Shreveport

La., under mysterious circumstances

and was supposed to have been

murdered, wandered into a convict

camp near Greenville, Miss., Satur­

day in a half demented and terribly

emaciated condition, begging for

morphine to alleviate his pain. He

remembers nothing of his departure

from Shreveport. The case is a

deep mystery.

Hancock county’s financial condi­tion is splendid. There is $15;000 in the treasury and the county does not owe a cent. —Meridian tUandard.

That shows bad management,

rather. A county should have no

money over and above its actual ex­

penses. Claiborne owes no man

anything and has abont $3,500 in

her treasury, but the approaching

circuit oourt and the bridges we are

building will consume the surplus.
