H c. Copeland and Bondsmen Sued
 by White Sewing Machine Co.

In the Jefferson Circuit Court today the case of the White Sewing Machine Co. against H. c. Copeland and his boLjsmen is occupying the attention of Special Judge Coleman.
 The case was commenced at 9 o'clock this morning and will be concluded late thls afternoon. The case is being tried upon counter : claims filed by defendant against the complainant.
 That which is alleged in the com plaint is admitted by the defendant, but seeks to recover sums ot money as credit on the amount claimed by the White Sewing Machine Go They are counter-elaims. To these plaintiff filed response, in which each claim was specifically denied. The arguments of counsel began at 1:30 this afternoon. The plaintiff is represented by Hon. J. H. Har- rod, of Little Rock. The defendant is represented by Judge D. H. Rous. seau.

SHOULD NOT SERVE.
So Rules the Attorney General Re.
 garding Teachers.

Attorney General Jeff Davis rer- dered an opinion concerning the serving of school teachers on the boards appointed by the superin- tendent of schools aud each county judge, regarding the purchasing of school books.
 From the attorney generals con- struction of the law those who are now serving on the textbook board will be placed in very embarrassing attitude, since the attorney general rules that they should not serve on the board. The two teachers ap- pointed by tte superiutendento of the schools stand.
 As regards the appointments of the county judge the=Iaw refers to more directly. The attorney gener- .al's ruling is that the law says that the county judge shall appoint two citizens, other than teachers.
 We regret tue attitude tbis places some of the gentlemen on the board of Jefferson county in, since they are all honest, upright and capable men, aod Judge Jones displayed lis judgment when he made the selec. tion of MT. G. E. Lytle, Prof J H Hinemon and Mr Creed Cald we'll.
 The board will, as heretofore ehronieled, meet and conclude their work on December 8. 1899.

A "GIG." !"
Obsolete in It's Meaning of g rlighty
 Girl.

Obsolete i'm It's Meaning of s Fiiwhty
 Girl
 .Gig" has one or two obsolete and Academy. It is obsolete in it's mean Ing of a fighty girl, though a writer so comparatively modern as Mme D'Arblay wrote in her diary: Char lotte L. called, and the little gig told all the quarrels." h the sense of an oddity or fool the word probably survives locally. Whyte-Melville makes someone say in Kate Coven- try" Such set of gigs my dear, l never saw in my life. Not a good-looking man among them" Yet note that the word is put into quota ton marks. ''In high gig" meant in high spirits. "Gig" had the third meaning of fun, glee. Sir Walter Besant locates the phrase in the thir- ties of this century in his Fifty Years Ago: "A laughter-loving lass Of IS, who dearly loved a bit of gig" No connection with "giggle" is suggested. By the way, I see that MT. Leslie Stephen has had the temerity to write of the house of commons "giggling over some delicious story of bribery and corruption" Although gig" a dighty girl, is obsolete, "giggIet, !" meaning the same thing, is apparently not so. A writer in Chambers Jour nal uses it with effect in the sentence: Why should female clerks in the post al service consist of pert giglets hard- ly out of their teens?" 'Giglet fairs tfor hiring female farm servants) are still held in the west of England.

4 woman's Chance of Life.

Of 1000 women at the age of 20, $40 live ten years more. thus making the chance at the age of 20 of a woman living to the age of 30 about 16 to in favor of living. Similarly. of 10,000 women living at the age of 30, S06 live twenty years more; the chance at the age of 30 Of woman living to the age Of 90 being, therefore, about to 1 in favor of living. Again, of 1000 women at the age of 60, 25o live 20 years more -i. e.. 25 in 100 live to the age of 30, and 75 in 100 do not.

THE FUTURE OF SAMOA.
Effect of Policy to Be Adopted by the
 Three Powers.


 Three Powers.
 The questions now come up, says the Independent: Will the three govern ments interested be able to work in harmony and will the general effect be educative on the people, tending to- ward the development of the power os self-g government? AS to tka former. much will depend on the ultimate pur- pose of the governments. If the islands are to be exploited for the prime advantage of Germany, England and the United States, then we can scarcely expect anything else than 9 renewal of the criminations and re- eriminations of the past years and harmony may as well be thrown 70 the winds. If, on the other hand, 1t Is made evident that in the conduct of the government of the islands the first thought is what will be best for them, even if 1t involves some sacrifice of other interests, then there is no req son why there should not be a happy and prosperous future for the commit nity. Upon the same thing depends the answer to the second question. That the Samoan can rise to self gov ernment few, if any, will deny, Whether he will attain to It, however. is very different question. If he is made to feel that he is simply an agent to further Engiish-Amertcan trade interests, his keenness may be developed, but not his character. That will only come by recognizing his man hood, trusting while at the same time guiding his judgment: stirring his am- bitioD by opening to him new oppor- tanities.
