Curious VIII Contest.

a curious will contest, according to
Paris papers, is about to be tried in the
Seine courts. Five years ago Russian
princess died, leaving a large fortune.
There was great surprise among her rel
atives when the testament was opened.
By one of its clauses she left 5000, 900
francs TO the person who would remain
a year in the chapel TO be erected above
her grave in rhe Pere la Chaise. The
body of the princess, according to the
legendary report, lies in a crystal coffin
III wonderful state of preservation. No
one of her relatives has been able to re-
main longer than two or three days in
the chapel. What will become of the
5000. 900 francs is the question.

:T LOOKS LIKE A SCHEME.
The Midwinter Fair to BE Used to Circum
vent tho Chinese Exclusion Acts

Il AHc -nAu"inter n air TO lie L sed to Circum-
vent the Chinese Exclusion Acts.
The Chinese village that is to be con-
| structed and maintained at the Midwin-
ter fair may prove of interest to visitors
from abroad, but the Chinese who are
back OF the enterprise did not originate
1t Tor that purpose, but in order 60 get
| another opportunity to add several hun
dred coolies to the present population of
| this country.
The Chinese believe that the resolu-
ZION passed by congress granting to the
Midwinter fair the same privileges that
had been granted to the Columbian ex-
position-namely, the entry of foreign
goods free and permitting to enter the
country the laborers, artists and others
of foreign nations connected with the
exhibits of those nations-will offer them
an opportunity to land some more of
their countrymen.
They have placed the matter in the
hands of their attorneys, and from the
expressions of certain prominent Chi
nese it appears that they have received
advice that comedies with their wishes
in the matter
Like all the schemes that the Six Com
panies go into, it will be for making
money, and the plan they will pursue in
this instance became public at the Gus
tom house yesterday.
Already the scheme has been put in
operation, and negotiations have been
opened with coolies in China who desire
to become residents of the United States.
Little Pete, on behalf of the Six Com
panies and other Chinese interested, is in
charge of the affair and will see that it
Is made a financial success.
Little Pete is the go between in all
cases where money is used for the illegal
landing of Chinese, and he is considered
one of the shrewdest ''fixers" doing bust
ness at the custom house. He has been
given instructions to arrange for the i'm
portation of another gang of supposed
actors, and for several weeks he has
been in correspondence with those VINO
are to assist him in China.
Letters have been forwarded to China
announcing that all who desire to come
to the United States and avoid the trou-
BILE that the exclusion acts present can
do so by becoming members of the Chi
Eese village that is to be imported for
the AIidwinter fair.
Under the resolution passed by con-
gress, if it will apply in this case, the
number that will be permitted to land in
order TO participate in the fair is not
limited, and how many will be desig-
mated by Little Pete and his associates
has not been made known. 1t is expect
ed. however, that fully 800 will avail
themselves of the excellent opportunity
that will be presented, and for that priv
ilege each one must pay $200.-San Fran
cisco Examiner.

A VIVID DREAM.

A Passenger Kicked Out Sleeper Window
and Threw Himself to the Ground.
a young business man of Minneapolis
bought furnace and had it set up on
Saturday. Yesterday he worked all day
showing his wife how to run it so she
would not burn the house down, and
last evening took sleeper for ST. Louis
Near Fulton he had vivid dream.
He thought his house was afire and
his family was locked up inside. With
yells of desperation which fairly froze
the blood of the other passengers in the
sleeper, he kicked in the door and found
the floor burned away, his wife and
everything in the house cremated, and
he himself landed in the cellar with
heavy thud. The blow awoke him, and
picking himself up he found himself by
the side of the railroad track CHANGING
about him, expecting to see the train a
wreck and the other passengers killed,
he saw in the starlight his train vanish
ing in the distance. He had actually
kicked out the double window of his
berth with his bare feet and thrown him
self feet first through the window to
the ground while the train was run
ming % miles an hour, and was unhurt,
save three cuts ON his left leg, caused by
the broken glass.
The passengers notified the conductor,
and when the train was backed they
found the man walking to meet it. He
was clad only in his nightclothes. 1t
was almost impossible to believe his
story, but his condition, and the deserted
berth containing his clothes, and the
broken window confirmed it.-Moline

1t is said by those who have looked
into the material progress of the Sec
tions Of the Union within the last ten
years, that the progress of the South
will be far ahead of any section of the
Union. With over two hundred cot
ton factories established and at work
within the present decade, to say moth
thing of those in contemplation, with
the oil mills in the different cotton
States, with the forges and furnaces for
the development OF our own industries,
and the wood working establishments,
are fed directly from convenient re-
sources OF mines and forests, our
progress will be considered remarkable,
if not amazing. What we need is cap
ital, and that is finding its way Sonth,
as our vast natural resources begin to
be understood. Instead OF transport
ing the product of our cotton fields for
use, the cheaper and more convenient
plan is bringing the spindles and looms
to the cotton fields. The spinners and
manufacturers OF the North see this
change ahead of them and some of
them will soon Toe locating in the
Southern or rather the cotton States,
and we see no reason why Mississippi
should not be first among them.

captured q young one, which after

sented to an American lady from Dem

Twill never shoot another monkey,
the mother of the young one was not
dead when we went to her. She raised
herself up and tore open the wound In

The style of the women's dress on the
Isthmus is at once striking and decid-
edly ''decolette." They have nothing
at all above the waist and very little
below. They use no powder or cos
metics to injure their compilations and
are a rich mahogony color.
The Tehuantepec Indians are mag
nificent specimens OF women. They
have regular grecian faces and their
physique is perfect. Tall and really
beautiful, but their manner of dress
was decidedly shocking to men of our
modest temperments, and often caused
US to take TO the woods rather than
face the women in their most remark
able costumes. ''Worth" never had
anything to do with making their
dresses. Alison threatened to bring
this also to the notice Of the Secretary
of State, but l talked him out OF it on
my promise to give him notice when

The opening Of this isthmus is attrac-
ting great deal Of American money

fevers yield readily to treatment and
one familiar with the tropics can tell
the fever districts by its appearance Of

chances on this isthmus as to health
than in the swamp country west OF

The natives are kind and hospitable
and make good labor. They are paid
from 25 to so cents per day, Mexican

gold will in the States, and notwith.

Hon. JAS. N. varilaman . Candidate
fDr Governor.

Ambition to serve the State was q
marked feature Of the young men Of
birth and talent, in the early days Of
the republic Of Rome. They began po-
litical lie early and arose by degrees
until they reached a consulship, and
from that, the highest honors OF the
Republic. Even staid old England has
at times followed this tread Of public
opinion, as at the age Of twenty-three
William Pitt became Chancellor Of the
Exchequer, and at twenty-five he was
the most powerful subject that she had
had for generations. The name of
Hon. j. X. Vardaman, of Greenwood,
as a candidate for Governor, revives
the "reminiscences of past ages. as We
believe he has all the great qualitica-
tions to fill the distinguished part Of
our chief executive with decided hon
or to himself and entire satisfaction to
the people. In every position he has
filled, whether of voluntary choice or
by the sutfrages OF the electors, he has
left the indellible marks of his genius,
as IA clear thinker, an inci5ive writer,
an eloquent speaker. His powers Of
thought, his ability in debate, were
emphasized with success in the consti-
tutional convention and in the Legis-
lature as Representative of the county
OF Leilore, when he became speaker
OF the House, and made an exceptional
presiding officer. In these responsible
positions he had the opportunity Of
developing the latest craftsmanship,
that now seeks broader field, and
higher responsibility for practical
display. At the bar amongst the legal
profession, he is regarded us u lawyer
OF fine ability. AS writer, the
columns of his paper the Enterprise,
are standing monuments of his ready
powers with the pen. His Democracy
is IL blrthright, that no price can buy,
no force could weaken. In private
life, Mr. Vardaman is a finished gentle
man, whose associates are not only
pleasant, but instructive. With these
splendid qualifications, he would make
an executive of whom the people would
be proved. The young, as well as
many of the old Democracy will rally
around his standard.

that society was out in full force.
