JACKSON, MISS., Deo. G.-It may
be that by a chance discovery, away
down in tho wilds of Southwest Mis
sissippi, will give antiquarians and
archaeologists a new problem to solve,
the answer to which may knock into a
cocked hat all preconceived notions
and theories as to the aboriginal in
habitants of this country, or those in
the lower part of thc Mississippi Val
ley.
At the present moment in expedi
tion is being fitted out, amply pro
vided with funds, and u? der the
direction of d'Stl?guistiuu t?t Cb theolo
gists and antiquarians, who wili give
the "Brandywine Wall" in lower Mis
sissippi a thorough investigation in
thc light of science and experience in
such matters. This expedition is ex
pected to reach Copiah and Claiborne
counties some timo in thc present
month, and excavations will at once
begin. The results of tho work will
be watched by students all over the
world with intense interest.
Some twenty years ago a few of the
inhabitants of thc southeast corner of
Claiborne County, Mississippi, needed
some Htonns for building purposes, to
make foundations and chimneys for
their dwellings. Some of the people
remembered, so it is alleged, seeing
some very nice, regular looking stones
in the woods in a pile, .''rom which the
accumulated loam of ages had been
washed by tho rains. To this
place tho people repaired. They
prized somo of the blocks, which woro
conveniently cut, from their resting
place, and then tho "quarry" became
famous. People for miles and miles
around came to get some of the stones
whonever their uses demanded stone
for any purpose. It was found that
the "quarry" extended east and wost.
Tons of sandstono were taken away.
Some of it was in blocks hewed into
squares, and some of tho blocks wero
longer than others, but they were all
trimmed with almost mathematical ex
actness.
There was a sort of cement, also,
which filled the craoks where the
stones were laid. It is hard, and of a
grayish color. In the upper layers of
the stone, the cement has disintegra
ted, but down in the middle of the
wall it was clearly defined and well
preserved.
The discovery was made that a few
miles from the "quarry" a branch of
Bayou Pierre had brokon through the
"quarry." On either side of the
stream a good idea of the "quarry"
oould be obtained, there was the same
sandstone; it was out in the same rec
tangular blocks, and the "quarry"
seemed to be about twelve or fifteen
feet in width and the same in height,
probably a little wider at the bottom
than at the top. - Along its top grew
great live oaks, slow-growing scrub
oaks and long-leaf pines lerge enough
to furnish masts for the biggest ves
sel that ever breasted waters. It was
noticed that there was a long ridgo
extending over the country, and that
in various plaoes where the dirt had
been washed away, the blookB of the
wall were shown.
Along about 1875-6, reports of the
quarry, or tho "Brandywine Wall," as
it had become to bo known in the
community, owing to its proximity to
Brandywine, a little country settle
ment and post office near who. 2 lao
first stone was taken out, got beyond
the immediato neighborhood. Tho
first person to tako cognizance of them
was a Miss Lou Jones, a resident of
Hazlehurst, Copiah County. She was
a scholarly woman, and moreover, an
enthusiastic amateur photographer,
and she proposed to get up an ex
pedition to go out in the Brandywine
neighborhood and make excavations
and take pictures of the curiosity, but
for some /euson the expedition fell
through, and the pictures were never
taken.
However, the talk of it stimulated
local interest, and a few years later
more definite reports were obtained.
It was then discovered that the wall
could bo traced for several miles by
the mound of earth which covered it.
In some places it was almost level
with the ground, in other places it
towered a number of feet above the
level of the surrounding country, and
at various places along the narrow
ridge the stones were exposed, showing
almost conclusively that it was a con
tinuation of the same work. The ex
act beginning or ending of the wall
has not to this day been ascertained.
After the agitation of Miss Jones
in favor of an expedition to examine
the wal at length, Captain T. B.
Birdsong) of Hazlehurst, became inter
ested in it. About that time Colonel
Louis J. Dupre moved to Hazlehurst
and began the publication of a paper
there. In company with Captain
Birdsong, they agreed to make an ex
amination of tho place. Colonel Bu
'WINE WALL."
[Prehistoric Race i
t. Louis licpublic.
of some note in this State. He held
a consular position under President
Cleveland's first administration in one
of the cities of Southern Mexico, and
while there became deeply interested
in tho Aztec ruins ?nd aboriginal re
mains, with which that country aod
Central America are so rich. The
two gentlemen visited the Brandywine
Wall. Speaking of the trip, Captain
Birdsong said recently:
"Colonel Dupre insisted upon our
visiting it, so toget.ier we drove
through the country, some twenty
four or twenty-fivo iui?es, to th??
J place, in au inaccessible part of the
: country.
1 "With a Mr. Bridges, who lives at
Brandywine, and a Mr. S. S. Starnes,
who also resides in the neighborhood,
' we visited thc wall, locally known as
j tho 'quarry.' On top of the wall it
appears broad enough for a two horse
wagon to be driven on it, and with
plenty of room to spare. In fact, the
top, where the dirt has been removed,
looks much like a paved street, cover
ed with heavy blocks of stone.
"Mr. Bridges got a negro and a
crowhnr and showed us how the peo
ple of that section got the stone out
of the wall. The negro stood on top
of the wall with the crowbar, and then
pounded at tho wall with repeated
vertical strokes until thc crowbar 'bit'
into a crack or seam. Then, working
the bar laterally, out rolled a stone,
several feet square, almost a perfect
cube, from its ancient bed of cement,
falling from our feet as though fresh
from the stonecutter's hand. From
thc spot from which the stone was
moved could bo seen the cement which
held it in place, and the ends of tho
other stones and their sides, cut and
adjusted with mathematical nicety,
were plainly visible.
"High above us, 200 or 300 feet,
rose a hill with an oval shape, much
liko the dome of the Capitol at Wash
ington, and tho marvelous part re
mains to be told-the wall apparently
runs under the hill, for it is exposed
on tho other side.
"I distinctly remember Colonel Du
pre remarking: 'If tb' . hill bo the
sediment of agoB, how old must be
this ruin?'
"I received a letter from Mr. John
D. Jewett, who resides at Newton, O.,
in regard to the wall, and who got all
the information I had about it. He
prepared a statement about tho wall
and submitted it to Professor F. W.
Putnam, Curator of the Peabody
Museum, and to Doctor J. F. Snider,
editor of the Amerioan Archaeologist,
and to Dootor D. G. Brinton of the
University of Pennsylvania, the latter
being probably the most noted au
thority in America on arohaeology.
"Doctor Brinton wroto that he
'thought the wall might he a natural
stone ledge with regular stratifica
tions. Just such a wall is found in
East Tennessee, and has at various
times been quoted as tho work of
aborigines, and the supposed oement
is the decaying surfaces of tho layers
in juxtaposition.' But one glance at
thc wall will convince him that he is
not correct in his surmise. You will
notion that he does net auto positive
ly, but says 'it might be.' "
The conditions for miles around
preoludc any chance of *he wall being
a natural ledge. The nearest saud
stcuu is in the uppor part of Hinds
County, nearly fifty milos away, and
it is of a totally different character,
from the stone in tho wall under dis
cussion and has no regular stratifica
tion.
Governor Longino, of Mississippi,
has become interested in tho subject
and he has individually set to work
and collected a fund of several hun
dred dol?ais to bc expended in making
excavation? along tho wall and in the
hill referred to. In addition a privato
expedition, consisting of R. W. Mo
Claughry, warden of tho United States
Penitentiary at Leavenworth, Kas.,
and several scientists, is expected
during tho present month, as is in ex
6edition undor the auspices of the
University of Chicago, with the pro
jectors of whioh Governor Longino
has been corresponding. Mr. Thomas
C. Watson, a prominent oitizon of
Copiah County, wroto to Governor
Longino, sume time ago, suggesting
that the Capitol Commission might
get the stone for the now Capitol from
the "Brandywine Quarry.' A soo
tion of the stone was sent to Governor
Longino as a sample. The stone was
sent by a gentleman who lives in the
vicinity of tho wall with the hope
that tho Capitol Commission, of whioh
the Governor is the president, will
find it available in the construction of
the new million dollar Capitol. The
supply Rooms inexhaustible. The
(J vernor has sent the sample to tho
Stui'hsonian Institute. If the scien
tists there report that tho stone is
good for such building purposes, the
commission may visit Brandywine
with a view to purchasing a portion of
the land upon whioh tho wall is situa
ted. In that ovent Mississippi will
have tho most interesting Capitol in
the United States-ono built ot atone
quarried and drcssod by, some prehh
torioraoe.
Ch.ap Giving of the Rich.
Abraham S. Hewitt, formerly mayor
of New York and member of Cougress,
has long been a mau of wealth and
distinotion. He has been successful
iu bunin ?BB and honored in society.
No one could speak severely of the
shortcomings of the rich with less
risk of being wriltuu down an envious
or mischievous person, seeking any
unworthy end.
Therefore when Mr. Hewitt told the
Educational Alliance, at a meeting
held io his own splendid and fabu
lously wealthy city, that tho rich
were very far from doing their duty to
tho poor, and asserted that their giv
I ing, even thc freest and the greatest,
i? relatively smull and inadequate, he
was listened to as ono speaking with
authority. He is out of politics. For
two national campaigns he has stood
with the organization against which
he used to struggle in the more con
servative days of Democracy. Ho has
nothing to gain by sensationalism.
And the rich manufacturer and civic
leader is right. The giving of the
rich, even thc most imposing and
famous of thc benefactions of the
very wealthy, is small and niggardly
by contrast with tho offerings of the
poor. It is vast in amount. In figures
it is thc most notable giving ever
known, but weighed against thc wealth
out of which it is taken it amounts to
little. Measured by the personal sac
rifico involved, by tho narrowed op
portunities for enjoyment, tho pinch
ing and caro required to get along
without what is given, all tho gifts ol
all tho millionaires uouibiued cannot
stand against the relief that very pooi
people give those still poorer when fl
simple tragedy of death or terrible
illness blackens some dark fireside it
the Blums of a great city.
Gao a man who retains $10,000,000
or one-tooth of ?hst sum, out of hi
yearly income be said to make anj
personal sacrifice if he devotes all th?
rest of his annual gains to benevolent
or philanthropy? Does his generosity
entail any lack? Does it make th*
least difference to him except in th
accumulation of money beyond hi
utmost possible wants ?
But the unnoticed giving of the poo
and much of that which is dono b
tho middle classes must always mea
.self-denial. Its price is paid in les
enjoyable food, less satisfactory clot!
ing, fewer books and pictures, nat
rower advantages for children, res trie
cd travel and sight-seeing. It mean
less provision for the chances of at
vcr si ty, more dang?r of want in ol
age or leng illness. It is real givir
of the very heart and spirit of tl
giver. Who shall presume to measu:
in the same balance such gifts ai
the great sums set apart by the vei
wealthy for purposes of charity or ac
other public objeot BO long as snob ui
of riohes implies no privation at
costs no self-denial?
Mr. Hewitt emphasized anoth
phase of the meager giving of the rit
when he pointed ont that by lettii
the poor jaok ample means of eduo
tioo in youth and reasonable opport
ni tier, for self-improvement all throuj
life possessors of wealth were neglet
ing tho best possible precautio
against social disorder and exoessc
He laid great stross on the need
schools, libraries, museums, and 17
institutions as safeguards against da
gerous forms of vice and ignorant
Ho asserted that from a purely selfi
point of view overy rioh man must
more giving than ho has dono he
tut'ore if he is to be guided by pi
denoe.
The obligations of great wealth i
much discussed at present, but thi
is still more to be said on 3 that gr?
subject. It is a matter of the utm
importance in a country whero gr
fortunes are rolling up to prodigit
size with the rapidly witnessed in t
United States.-Cleveland Leader.

"I reckon that my epicurean tenden
cies are as weil developed as those of
most men," said au old newspaper man
I yesterday to a group which was dis
cussing things grastonomic, "and I
have quite a taste for the elegant in
the edible linc, no to speak. But of
all the meals ? ever partook of thc
one stands pre-eminent in my experi
ence was my Thanksgiving dinner in
1888. Some time previously I had
started from Memphis with an artist
on a commission from a Memphis
paper to write up tho educational in
stitutions of Mississippi, and during
Thanksgiving week was at Columbus,
in Lowndes County, where the Girls'
Industrial School, one of tho most
valuable colleges I have ever seen or
heard of, is located. I was invited by
a friend to go quail shouting Thanks
giving Day and gladly accepted. By
daybreak we were ou our way to the
sparsely settled country down thc
Tombigbee Uiver in a light wagon
that not only carried us and our dogs
and a darky boy driver, but a basket
filled with eatables and drinkables.
Reaching a point where my friend
said we wonld begin to find birds we
left the wagon, tho boy being directed
to meet us later in the day several
miles away.
'.Wc followed the dogs, which were
duly diligent, but not a covey did we
find. Beaching the rendezvous made
with a ohuckic-headed darky wo didn't
find him or wagon either. My friend
had killed a rabbit a short time pre
viously, and we were discussing thc
propriety of building a fire and bar
becuing the bunny, when we noticed
j smoke curling out of a hollow near by.
Investigation discovered th.;t it carno
from a negro cabin, and when we
reached it a big, f.i, obsequious,
smiling mammy, wi tl: a bandanna
around her head, stood in the door
way. Well, she cooked that rabbit
for us and made us some ash-cake and
fried us some big hominy left ovei
from breakfast and made us a oup oi
coffee. Talk about your Thanksgiving
dinner. I have eaten my share, but
that meal stands out pre-eminently in
my memory as the finest ever."

SORES ANE
Sores and Ulcers never become chronic
unless thc blood is in poor condition-ia
sluggish, weak and unable to throw ofi
the poisons that accumulate in it. Thc
system must be relieved of the unhealthy
matter through the sore, and great danger
tr? iif/? would follow should it bcd before
the blood has been made pure and healthy
and all impurities eliminated from thc sys
tem. S.S.S. begitj? the cure by first cleans
ing and invigorating the blood, building
up the general health and removing from
the system A QQNSTAHT ORAS ft
thiner. UPON THE SYSTEM.
When this has been accomplished the dis
charge gradually ceases, and the sore or
ulcer heals. It is the tendency of these old
indolent sores to grow worse and worse,
and eventually to destroy the bones. Loca;'
applications, while soothing and to some
extent al le viate pain, cannot reach the seat
of the trouble. S. S. S. does, and no matter
how apparently hopeless your condition,
even though your constitution has broken
down, it will bring relief when nothing
else can. It supplies thc rich, pure blood
necessary to heal the sore and nourish
the debilitated, diseased body.
Mr. J. n. Talbert, Lock Box 24s, winona, Miss.,
says: " Six years ago my leg from the knee to
tb? foot was one sol?a sore. Several physicians
treated me and T made two trips to Hot Springs,
but found no re. :f. I waa induced to try S. s. s ,
and lt made a complete eui c. I have been a per
fectly wellman eyer since."

DEAN & RATLIFF'S LETTER !
SOME PLAIN TALK.
WHEN it cornea, to plain, open lyiog we are not in it, but when in the
course of human events it becomes necessary for os to tell just what we are
doing we are bound to do it. A nybody that waichee the intelligent crowd of
pleased customers who throng our Store from dawn Hill dusk must know that
we don't have to advertise in the newspapers to make ourselves known. The
quantity and quality of Shoes, Dry Goods, Jeans, Hats, &c, that are carried
out cf our Store daily show that the wind is blowing in our favor, while the
scores of wagons that we load every day with purest Flours-Dean's Patenfc^
and those Pure Rust Proof Oats, Rice, Meal, &c, ?imply tell the tale for us
wherever they go. While we will see to it that every one is waited on in the
rush, and while we want as many more to come in and get happy as they
deserve, but we must insiat upon those who have already been made happy
and who owe us for it by Note, Lien or open Account coming in to settle at
once, ns all such Accounts and Notes are due on October 1st, and we must
have our money or it must be satisfactorily arranged.
Guano and other customers will bear this in mind and act accordingly.
Yours for Business,
DEAN & RATLIFFE.
Sole Distributors of Dean's Patent Flour,
And Headquarters for all Plantation Supplies.
