Of the people. In speaking of
the platform upon which he will
stand he says:
"The platform on which | am
making my contest for the nomi.

few words: The people want the
Strictest economy in the manage
ment of city affairs, and conSe
quent reduction in the tax rate.

be the policy of my administra-
ton. Under the new charter. in

greater influence than was posi-.
bic in past years. and all that in.

NOT WHITES ENOUGH TO GO ROUND
Effect of the War and the Suffrage Quail
tication in, a Missfssippi County

IA 81 Nhississlppl county.
A special dispatch to the New York
Sun from New Orleans says: An at
tempt will be made ITO induce the leg
islature of Mississippi to cut off a slice
of De Soto county and annex it to
Tunica. Various territorial reasons are
given for the proposed change, but the
real reason is found in the suffrage
qualification of Mississippi and the
Spanish war.
Tunica is black county of the Yazoo
delta, county of big plantations,
many negroes and few whites. AL
though possessngs population of
10000, it has only 359 white voters, and
these seldom cast more than 100 or $50
votes, and even less if the election is
not exciting. When the Spanish war
began the planters sons all showed a
great desire to enlist, and it is said that
two-thirds of the white registered vote
of Tunica county is now in the LIST and
I'd Mississippi regiments. This leaves
behind only 120 whites for jury duty,
holding the local offices, etc The com
plant is made that there are not
enough qualified electors in the county
to fill up the various juries and special
venues; and the slice from De Soto
county is desired to fill out the iuries
and give Tunica enough white citizens
properly to administer the affairs of
the county when it's young men are off
for the war.

BOSTON WOMEN TAKE TO BOXING.
So Punching Bags Are an Acceptable
Christmas Gift in That Town.

SHFISthaS SiIU Ill lnaC l0Wn.
A special dispatch to the New York
Sun from Boston says: " The idea of
giving your wife a punching bag for
Christmas present. said dealer in
athletic goods may seem at first sight
a trifie unWise; yet it is none the less
fact that there is in Boston great de-
mand for these bags, not only among
what you might call gymnasium wo-
men, but also among those who do not
take systematic exercise. Boston women
are not all running to brains evidently.
Ihey must like to spar or they wouldn't
do it. Whether the male part of the
Boston population is pleased or not is
another matter; and it isn't to be pre-
sumed that the men like the prospects
OF general sparring with the bag among
the so-called gentler sex, simply be-
cause they are prevailed upon to pur-
chase the equipments, for when Boston
women want anything they get it. All
men know that"
Looking at the practice of bag punch
ing from a merely physical or sports
Womanlike point Of view, the exercise
is indisputably excellent. For the or
binary woman the punching bag is
necessarily too hard; accordingly, wo-
men use boxing gloves of the horsehair
description. The boxing movements
strengthen the back, waist, arms, Shout
ders and neck, and broaden and build
up the chest. The exercise is recon-
mended to be taken Immediately on
getting up in the morning, just before
the bath, say. OF course, care must be
taken not to overdo it. The work must
be followed out more in science than in
anger, or serious strains are Liable to
result. The most approved styles of
punching bags, too, fly back, and are
apt to hit hard.
The question of women sparring is
delicate matter. which each man must
settle for himself. There are times. Of
course, when a woman must either
strike or speak OUT, and il the punch
ing bag only turns the current in IT'S
direction it may prove a boon to civil
ization.
