REDUCED ECHOLs' SENTENCE.
But Governor VIII Not Act Until He
Surrenders Himself.

Atlanta, March 15.-The Pardon Board
will recommend TO Gov. Gambler TO reduce
the five years sentence of Charles Ech-
OILS to a 81 900 fine.
Gov. Gambler refuses to take any action
until Echos is in the custody of the prop
er officers and in the state. Echols has
been out on bond pending the hearing of
his case before the Supreme Court and
is now in New York. He did not sur
render himself when that court ruled
against him. The Governor says he has
no authority to act as long as Echols is
not in the custody of the law. There
may be requisition papers issued for him.

The Panama Hat.

THE cheapest straw hat to buy"
said a man who owns q beauty. lis
after all, a Panama, like this. Look
here" He took down his big white
hat, which was creased down the mid.
die like pair of trousers, and rolled IL
up tight; then he tossed 1t in the air.
With Il cracking sound 1t spread open
and fiuttered down to the floor in its
original shape. deep center crease and
all. You could soak this hat for a
week" he continued, land iron it out
fiat afterward. but when you came to
put 1t on again it woJild-lIesJust as you
see it now.
Women in Mexico and roundabout
all that region make the hats, using
straw that has been selected with more
care than l could tell you of. The art
has been handed down in their families
from one generation to another. and it
Is 4 secret art, unknown to any other
people in the world.
These women, living so far away
from everything, are ignorant of the
fashions, and that is why the hats
never change their ugly shape. If they
were fashionably made, the demand
for them would be enormous. AS it is,
hatters travel through all that country
and buy them up at good prices
The perfect Panama hat costs at
least $50. and if you should pay $50 for
Il big and unusually light one you
would not be getting stuck.

Lord Rus.eII,. DiIemma.

Once. when he first came to Lon
Dor and was laying the foundation OF
his great career, says a London letter
the future Lord Chief Justice Russell
went 10 the pit of n theater. The piece
was popular. the pit was crowded and
the young advocate had only standing
room. All OF 4 sudden a man at his
side cried out that hi: watch was
stolen. Mr.. Russell and two other
men were hemmed in.
1T Is one of you three" cried the
man minus the watch.
We'll. we had better go out and be
searched" said Mr.. Russell, with the
alertness OF mind that did not fail him
at n trying moment amid an excited
crowd = detective was at hand. and
the suggestion was accepted. AS Mr..
Russell walked out the idea flashed
through his mind that if the man be-
hind him had the stolen property he
would probably try to secrete it in the
pocket Of his front rank man. Quick
as thought he drew his coattails about
him-only to feel. to his horror some
thing large and smooth and round al
ready in his pocket.
While he was still wondering what
this might mean for him. the detective
theoretically seized the hindmost man,
exclaiming: What, you rascal, At 1t
agaIn" To Mr.. Russell and the other
man he apolOgized and babe them go
free.
But Mr.. Russell, before he had taken
many steps. reflected that he could not
keep the watch. He went back to the
box Office and explained. with cour-
age on which he afterward said he
rarely experienced greater demands.
that though he did not take the watch
he had 1t. SO saying. he put his hand
into his pocket and pulled out-a for
gotten snuffbox
