weeks and until recently ths soprano

tenant Charles Train, at which MrB.
Gibson will be a matron of honor. It
is a strange coincidence that Mrs. Gib

folloms the rumor that Charles Dana
Gibson will dress his future Gibson
girl pictures in that garb.
Mrs. Gibson's gown is said by those
who have seen it to live faithfully up
to the plans and specifications laid
down by the Parisian designers of the
grapeskln garb. The slash at one side
which is a pronounced feature of the
very unroomy dress, is present, It Is

CIVIL TERM OF COURT BEGINS
MONDAY FOR THREE WEEKS
Some Important Civil Cases to Be Tried.—No
Grand Jury, But Petit Jurors Have
Already Been Summoned.
If there Is any place on the earth
where finer peacnes will grow than
around Hattiesburg, that place has not
yet been discovered.
It has long been known that the
very finest peaches of any variety
could be grown here, and especially
can the early varieties be made a
great success.
As an evidence of this Mr. C. H.
Colmer, of this place has been mar
keting fine, large, wall-matured peach
es since the 8th day of may.
Yesterday Mr. Colmer sent a box
of peaches to the Daily News In order
to show the possibility of the soil here
for raising this fruit. These peaches
were not selected from among a lot of
others; they were the same size and
kind that Mr. Colmar has been plac
ing on the market, being of a variety
that ripens in June. No. one ever saw
finer peaches anywhere. They were
large, luscious and beautiful, well rip
ened and not a flaw or spec about
them. Their flavor was delicious, far
surpassing both the California and the
Georgia peach. In no section of the
country does a peach have such fins
flavor as do the peaches grown here.
As showing the size, Mr. Colmer
sent one of his largest peaches to a
prominent gentleman of this city and
It measured nine Inches i» circumfer
ence. Think of that! It is doubtful
if its like can be found anywhere in
the United States at this season of
the year.
Mr. Colmer only has two acres In
peaches and very near all of his trees
are fruiting, this being their first year
to bear.
Mr. Colmer Is thoroughly convinced
that the growth of peaches can be
made profitable here and that the soil
around Hattiesburg Is peculiarly well
adapted for growing the best and fin
est variety. Then, too, there Is a more
delicious flavor to the fruit grown here
than in any other place.
Another and very great advantage
about peach growing In this section
is that the fruit comes on early and if
shipped to the market would bring
fancy prices.
