Bangs"

ON CORONA, Miss, March 26, 1883.
EDITORS CLARION: In late issue Of
The CLARION, there is an article, our
"Woman's Bangs" in which it is said
there is no satisfactory account of the
origin or history of that institution. BY
your permission for the benefit Of your
fair readers, / will attempt to give some
account Of its use, If not Of its origin.
Having spent large part or my boy
hood, and early manhood, upon the bor-
ders and in the territory of the Mas
cogee or Creek Indians, in what is now
Eastern Alabama, ] became. familiar
with the habits and language Of the
tribei one of which was the custom Of
wearing the hair in the style and fash
ion, now known a. ''Bangs," in civilized
and fashionable life, by the maidens Of
that tribe. Whether it is the custom Of
that tribe at present in the Indian Terri
tory west Of the Mississippi, ! do not
know, but 1t was as common with the
fashionable young squaws Of that tribe
in the east from the year 1928 to 1888,
as il now is among the fair votaries of
fashion in civilized life. 1t was also the
custom Of the Cherokees.
remember seeing one young white
woman, wearing hair in that fashion, in
Altoona, Georgia, in the year 1888, and
calling the attention of the spectators
to it at the time (she was in dance)
and ! asked the questions, as to whether
| it was likely to become the style; little
thinking that it would so become after
| forty years. a. q. SMYTHE.

said "Come, I'm going to work, and l
guess you'd better go away with me"
Dunn, without saying a word, arose and
stopped over as though to kiss his daugh-
ter Emma, years of age. While in
this position he pulled revolver, and,
taking careful aim at Mrs. Dunn, shot
her. He then turned suddenly toward
his son Joe, and fired at him. The young
man ran into the yard, and the bullet
struck the plastering. Dunn then drew
knife and seized his daughter Phoebe,
few years younger than her brother,
intending to take her life, Phoebe strug-
gled and screamed. Joe thereupon ran
to his sisters assistance, and struggle
ensued. Two men who were passing at
the time, heard the screams and rushed
in. and theinfuriated father was arrested.
The ball fred at Mrs. Dunn will produce
probably fatal wound.

81 believe it to be of sufficient impor-
tance to impress on the members the
benefits to be derived from the organi-
cation of parish or district associations.
Our meeting last year contributed great
ly to the promotion of the Orleans Par
ish Association, a society which has pro-
NOTED very materially the interest of its
members and has eSerted good in
fence on the profession in this city. 1t
has eradieated many unbusiness like
practices, smoothed the asperities Of per-
sonal jealousies existing between honest
and honorable rival druggists. 1t has
created a fraternal feeling among many
who knew of each other but had never
met or spoken together-a feeling which
deserves to be fostered with kindness by
our State Association, as from its devel-
opment we may expect valuable assist
ance in the advancement of our cali
ing"
From above, you may see the great
benefit already derived from said Asso-
citation and yet it is only eleven months
old. Win we, of the proud State OF
Mississippi, stay in the rear? Why not
follow the good example set in by our
sister States, Alabama and Louisiana
and organize at once mississippi State
Pharmaceutical Association" Have VIZ
not the brains and the means to do it
Certainly, yes! well, if each of us
would give helping hand it would be
a very easy matter. Nearly all thu
States of the Union have their "Phar
maceutical State Associations" which are
all prospering, are beneficial to its mem
bers and serve to elevate the character
of our profession.
We are well aware of the reform We
need in our line of business and it is onl,
by cooperation among ourselves, tha
we will be able to do something good
Therefore, we should organize at once
and be ready for business, when our mex
Legislature meets. "In Union there il
strength"
Some will say ''the experiment hat
been tried but without success" Nomat
ter, it proved that at the time the frui
was not ripe, but now, with little cul
tiyation on our part, we are sure of sue
cess. would most respectfully suggest
that Mr.. Athey, of Holly Springs, Miss.
one of our oldest druggists, would tax,
the lead, by publishing notice in TIL
| CLARION calling meeting Of all tn
druggists of the State, for such dat
and place which he thinks best. If w
are only eight or ten we can organize an,
once organized will increase rapidly an
without any trouble. Now, if any othe
druggist can offer something better,
will be thankfully received and highl.
appreciated, but don't be lukewarm i
the matter and let us all give helpin
hand and success will be our reward.

wEsrvILLE, April 9th. 1885,


EDITORS CLARION: Perhaps a few
"straws" from the "Piney Woods would
indicate which way the wind is blowing.
Politics are at discount. Everybody
seems to be waiting for political light
ming to strike them, | have heard the
names Of several gentlemen mentioned
for the different positions Of the county,
but none as yet have announced them
selves. Really ! don't think that the
present incumbents will have much oppo-
sition, simply from the fact that an inn
prcyement would hardly be possible,
especially in some of the offices. As to
whether we will have Convention or
not remains to be seen. One thing is
certain, we will have no more primary
elections in ours. A Convention COM
posed Of say twenty-five good solid men
from each beat can certainly select a
ticket that would be acceptable to the
people of the county. We are not bound
to nominate man just simply because
he is candidate. II the person who
has announced himself is not competent,
then go to work and select some other
person who would be acceptable. This
is the only way to give satisfaction to a
majority of the legal voters of the coun-
ty. You can't please everybody, it is a
matter Of impossibility. Let us have a
Convention composed of the number Of
voters have suggested, and | will insure
that we will have no trouble in our
ranks. SIMPSON.

A friend and patron of the Messenger
residing sn Monroe county, requests us
to say that large number Of voters on

Hon. j. M. Trice for the Senate. Col.
Trice is thoroughly identified with the
interests of the masses, conversant with
their wishes and understands the wants
of the great agricultural class, and is an
enemy to monopolies of every grade and
character. His record in the Legisla.
ture shows all this and more, and for oui
part we would be rejoiced at his selection
by the goood people Of Monroe, Itawam

IL TIE GOVERNORS TRIBuNAL.

In the phenomenal proceeding now going
on at the Capitol, where the Governor,
aided by the counsels of Judge. is en-
deavoriDg to ascertain whether he has a
right to proceed with an inquiry into the
conduct of certain officials, point has been
raised, which on the 22i of May we sug-
gested as one of the chief questions in the
matter. The Constitution provides that
the Governor shall have power to remove
either of the Directors (of the State PRISON.
for misdemeanor, incompetency or neglect
of duty, after an opportunity to be heard
upon written charges" II occurred to US
then that it was a very interesting cues.
tion to determine whether this constitu.
tional provision is self.executing. Having
declared that a hearing shall be had, that
written charges shall be preferred, it is at
once suggested to the mind that the method
of procedure for the ascertainment of the
faets was not provided for, and that legis.
lation might be necessary to establish the
method before the clause could be made
effective. There is no disposition to crit.
icise the case pending the argument of the
various objections taken to the Governors
tribunal, but the point raised Is one to
which particular attention should be given,
and as it is Of considerable public interest,
it may therefore very properly engage
public consideration. 1t is by no mesns
one-sided, and is capable of dividing Of
creditsble authorities.
