issippi was re-admitted to the Union
ditions: First. that the constitution of
Mississippi shall never be so amended or
changed as to deprive any citizen, or
class of citizens, of the United States of
the right to vote, who are enUltled to
vote by the constitution herein recog-
nized." This re-admission act was passed
by Congress in 1870, but in 1892 Miss
issippi adopted new constitution and
codified it's laws, and the new constltu-
ton and the new code do disfranch1se
citizens of the United States who could
vote under the constitution of 1870. 1t
will be seen that the condition under
which Mississippi was re-admltted is
much stronger than the Fifteenth
amendment. That provides simply
that the right of citizens of the United
States to vote shall not be denied or
abridged by the United States or by any
State on account of race, color or previ-
Gus condition of servitude." Under this
amendment States are free to limit the
suffrage in any way they see fit, provided
race, color or previous condition OF SER
vitude is not made the dividing line.
Thus they may set up an educational
qualification as has been done in many
States, the chief effect of which will be to
exclude the black vote, and that is per-
fectly legal. Or they may set up prop
erty qualification. So long as the qualifi-
cation is not based on either of the
three things specified in the amendment
it is not an infraction of the fundamental
law, though its effect may be chiefly felt
by the black citizen. But the act under
which Mississippi was re-admitted clearly
provides that neither directly nor indl-
rectly shall the constitution of the State
be changed so as to disfranchise any
person who was entitled to vote under
the constitution as it existed at the time
of the passage of the Congressional act.
That constitution did entitie all the
negroes to vote. That constitution
has been changed so as to disfranchise
part of them. The question presented
is very interesting and important one

ages and Court la dies, and include also
three males and a few babies. The dolls
are of the most unpromising MATERIAL
which the children of today would dis

OF vermillion on their cheeks, but are
so arranged that they are available for
every kind of dramatic gesture and attl-

with painted muslin faces. Whole
groups of dolls represent characters IN

of others performed in the ballots which
were played between the acts OF the

The book is beautifully and deliberately
illustrated by Allan Wright, the colors

gives charming description of each

shows the evanescent'' influences and fash

the duties of recorder, to which position
he was recently elected, and the commit
tee must report to the incoming legisla-

not have exhausted. JAIL the material, and
it proba bly, might go on making expos
ures for some time to coIue. 1t has de-
veloped enough facts, however, to en-
able the officers of the law to proceed
with the investigation before the grand
jury and bring out there any additional
facts that may be of Importance. There
is general demand, however, that be-
fore the committee adjourns finally it
shall examine the superintendent of the
police department, Mr.. Thomas Byrnes,
and this demand will probably be acced-
