A timely note of caution may be given

the use of old potatoes. 1t has always

FOR THE HURRIED SHOPPER
A pretty blue foulard gown is simply
made and simple in design. The pat
tern is a small white dot on a blue
ground The bodice is made with a
yoke and puffs at the wrists of some
thin white material. over the yoke the
bodice is gathered fun in front, the
fulness held in place in the center of
the front by two broad straps of the
material. The skirt was long and we'll
shaped and finished simply with a mar
row plating at the lower edge.
The collarless gown brings the pearl
necklace into vogue to such an extent
tnat tae supply OF real pearls cannot
meet the demand But it is the price
and not the small supply which is the
usual obstacle to obtaining such neck
lace. So the imitation pearls have come
into the breach in greater perfection
and beauty than ever before.
Long black and white ostrich plumes
are very much worn this season, and
they are put on the hat to droop not a
little at one side touching the Shout
der in some instances.
It is extraordinary how we have ban
ished the tight bodice from the list of
ago our best frocks were somewhat
painful to wear, but now we can don
them with a feeling of unbounded joy

HOW ABOUT THE PENITENTIRY.
Aud nov it is reported that one of
he numerous penitentiary directors
declares that the institution Is "bank
rupt" and has nothing but it's debts
to run on" In 1899 the Democratic
hooters issued about 500, 900 in bonds
to pay up the shortage and misman-
agement" of the fusion "adminis-
tration for 1897 and 1898, and they
had put on the face of the bonds
that they were issued on account of
said "mismanagement." The fusion"
crowd had to meet the problem of
bad crop years and Ave cent cotton.
During 1899 and 1900 the Democrat
ic gang mad two good crop years and
"ten cent" cotton, and yet they spent
during that time sos, 900 more than
they made and issued a report at the
beginning of 1901 that the "pen"
was sustaining. Now they are howl
ing that there is nothing but debts to
run on. THE CAUCASIAN believes if
all the facts concerning the "pen''
for the past two years we're laid bare,
there would be exposed the rottenest
and most extravagant management
1t has ever been through.

THE SNEAK BILL

1t has now come to light that the
member of the legislature, We think
from Beaufort County, introduced
ad passed in the last legislature a
bill the title of which is as follows:
IAN act to prohibit the telling Of
timber in certain streams of Beau
fort" It now turns out that the
b ody of the Act applies to the whole
State and prohibits the shipping Of
any logs or timber out of the State.
1t Ii astonishing how such q piece
Of legislation, even with its dishon-
est title could have gotten through;
but 1t is not hard to understand that
tho men who composed this body,
who stuffed ballot boxes and who
were able to commit in the last cam
paign all kinds Of high-handed revo-
luton that would rob the people of
their elective franchise, would not
hesitate to introduce a sneak bill I'M
der such q false and dishonest title.
1t is to be hoped that the Courts
will see some justifiaDle way to de-
clare the the..a invalid.
