The committee on platform went into
executive session as soon as IN approx

members could be made. They went to
work hammer and tongs behind closed
doors, and kept up their lGbors until far
into the night.
General Weaver was proposed for
chairman, but he declined, and Hugh
Cavanagh, general worthy forman OF the
knights Of Labor, was unanimously
chosen for the position. n. X. Taylor,
OF Tennessee, and McClelland, of Kan

The Evil i'm Feminine Dress

The evil in the feminine dress of
today lies not with our rich women
but with our women of average
means, writes Edward W. Box in
cat Home With the Editor" in the
July Ladies' Home Journal. The
wealthy woman rarely overdrcsses;
the a erage woman tar more often,
an she stamps herself by that very
indiscretion. 1t is not the mistress
who overdresses so much as it is
her servant who tries to initiate her.
The nice and refined women, the
women of taste, are not the pur-
chasers Of the snowy dress patterns
and misft hats which we see in the
show windows. Just in proper
ton as woman is refined in her
nature is she quiet in her dress. A
refined woman never dresses loud
ly. The present tendency in red
is not followed by girls and women
of refinement. 1t is affected by
those who forget that red is the
most trying color which woman
can wear becomingly, and there is
no color of which one so soon tires.
Only a few women can choose a
perfect shade in red, and those are,
as rule not the women who wear
it.

In behalf of w. w. Davis, candidate
for Representative, we wish to say that
while we were in Ft. Smith serving as
juror in the U. S court Is months ago.
we had private conversation with the
noted Judge l. G. Parker, and in this con-
versation Mr.. Parker informed us that
w. w. Davis OF Carroll county had serv-
ed on the jury in that court several
times within the past Is years, in some
instances for long term, and he was
always on duty when his service was
needed, that he never was called by
the marshall at the door. He said Mr.
Davis, at that time, was the only juror
he could remember who had never been
tardy. Verify, he is the M an who at

an engagement ring, and told her
if she went back on Der she would
kill her. After all hopes of their
marrying had diminished, Alice
attempted to commit suicide. For
some time before the tradgedy,
Miss Ward had been a resident of
Golddust, Tenn, but made frequent
visits to Memphis, but she did not
pay any att ention to Alice, but in
letter to Alice short time be-
fore the killing, she expressed her
self as yet exercising the same
strong love for her, but dared not
even write her again. Enraged
over the matter and upon hearing
that Freda was in the city, Alice
managed to meet her on the street,
and upon meeting her Alice step
out of her buggy and walked de-
liberately up to Freda and cut her
throat with q razor. She drove
home Immediately, but was soon in
the hands of the officers, and has
since been in jail excepting what
time she has been on trial. She
mover made any explanation Of her
brutal act except that she killed
Freda because she loved her.
While in jail she did not seem to
realize that Freda was dead; but
often cried because she could not
see her. The history of Alice and
evidence of expert physicians who
have examined her, show that she
is undoubtly insane, and, no doubt,
this will be the decision of the court.

THE trial as to the sanity of Miss
Alice Mrchell the murderess of Miss
Freda Ward in Memphis, Tenn., last
winter, has been in session in Mem
phis for the past week. The histo-
ry OF the affair as shown by the evil
dence adduced closely rivals the
most noted stories of fiction. The two
girls, Miss Michel and Miss Ward,
had been for a long time infatuated
with each other. sc much as that
their love was entirely unnatural
and they tancied that they would
get married. They even went so
tar as to make arrangements to
elope, but their plans were discov-
cred and Miss Wards sister pre-
vented Freda from further inter-
course with Miss Michel. But the
burning FASHION of love, stronger
than is seldom exercised by two Of
opposite sex, still existed; especially
on the part of Miss Michell, who ex-
.pected to- be the husband OF Miss
Ward. After their engagement
was brokers' Miss Ward did lot
seem to exercise very much inter-
est in the matter; but Alice con-
tinually worried over it. In making
the engagement Alice gave Frcda

The Use Of Slang.

Henry Lucas to Globle-Democrat
reporter. "It only requires about
three days for new catch word to

night it will be on the lips of the
street gamins of Galveston and

Slang is peculiarly American, 1t
appears to fill want that does not
exist in other lands. Slang is
wasted on Europeans. 1t possess
an audacious flavor that harmon
ICES with Amarican character and
with no other. If not decidedly
coarse a catchy slang phrase is
quickly caught up and accorded an
honorcd place in our vernaeular.
1t is amusing to see with what hor-
ror some purists regard slang, while
habitually using words and phras-
es that were regarded as vulgar
isms only few years ago.

seem to have been doing their level
best to help the Democrats and vice
versa. The remark was doubtless
made in reference to political work
outside of the halls of legislation, but
the same rule seems to hold good in
Congress. The latest achievement in
that line was scored by the Democrats
in having IL, 900 copies of the "force

not under consideration in either body.

II. G. FRIcK, chairman of the Carne-
gle Steel Company at Homestead, Pa,
was shot and, it is thought, fatally
wounded In his office in Pittsburg last
Saturday afternoon. The man who did
the brutal act was a stranger and ust
stepped into Mr.. Flick s office aud began
his death y work. II is claimed the
strikers are not responsible for it, but
when the news was received at Home
stead many of them expressed themsel-
YES IN hopes that he would die. The
news of the shooting created great ex-
element in Plttsburg. The crank who
did the shooting is said to be an anarch-
list Of the worst degree. When asked
why he did the work he said "you know
that" lie was arrested and will have
to at once answer for his brutal work.
