On the word of one of the wisest philosophers of the age, you may set it down as a truth—-that a man can better afford the most
economical of extravagances than the most extravagant of economies.
It's Extravagant Economy to Wear Your Watch Away for the Want of Attention.
s
If it needs to be repaired we will tell you so and it will cost you nothing to find out.
We know how to repair a watch, and it is to your interest to do it right.
We want you as a permanent customei.

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, Nov. 29.—Vouchers have
been returned for over one-half of the
annual pension distribution of $200,

the county treasurers. Those war
rants will be returned in a few days, i

Will be able to meet them without 1

exceedingly close shave, as the bills f

Augusta, Mississippi, Jnne 20, 1902.
To his excellency, A. H. Longino,

Yorr undersigned petitioners citizens of
said state petition you and ask the
pardon of Nepolean Whittle, who was
at the May term of the circuit conrt of
the first district of Perry county. Miss.,
j convicted of assault and battery with
intent to kill, and sentenced to serve a
term of two years in the state peniten
tiary, and we give as onr reason for
executive clemency the following:
1st. Nepolean Whi'tle entered a plea
of guilt to said ?harge with the hope
and expectation of having executed
clemency at yonr hands.
2nd. There were mitigating cir
, cuxnstances connected with his com
j mitt j n g the offence and had they been
introduced before a jury in evidence
the said Nepolean vvhittle might have
been acquitted
3rd. The said Whittle has always up
to the committing of this offence been
an honest, law abiding, industrious
negro, has never been in any trouble or
convicted before.
4th. His health is very poor; has
now a dangerous and painfnl constitu
tional disease and in the opinion of your
petitioners as well as medical advisors!
that if he is permitted to remain in
prison will die before his time expires.
5th. He has a wife and seven small
children in destitute circumstances who
are badly in need of his help and
presence.
6tb. Because since being in the state
penitentiary he has caused the official
no trouble, but has been industrious
and his conduct becoming.
