THE FIRST WOMAN.

ItT E
An Old Eastern Legend That Tells
How She Was Created.
The last section ...Of I Ginger Of the
Moon Redeemed by the Setting Sun" in
the Sanscrit work called the "SurgingS
of the Ocean of Time contains a legend
concerning woman's creation which is
commonly credited throughout India,
and which runs somewhat as follows:
At the beginning Of time, Twashtri, the
Vulcan of Hindoo mythology, created
the world. But when he wished to
create a woman he found he had en-
ployed all his materials in the creation
of man. There did not remain one
solid element. Then Twashtri, per-
picked, fell into a-profound meditation.
He reused himself to do as follows:
He took the lightness of the leaf and
the suns rays and tears of the mist,
the Inconsistency of the wind, and the
timidity of the hare, the vanity of the
peacock and the softness of the down.
on the throat of the swallow, the
h%arshness of the diamond, the sweet
flavor of honey, the cruelty OF. the tiger.
the warmth Of fire, the chill of snow,
the chatter Of the jay and the cooling
of the turtle dove. He melted all this
and formedFa woman. Then he made
a present of her to man. Eight days
later the man came to Twashtri and
said:
"My lord, the creature you gave me
poisons my existence. She chatters
without rest, she takes all my time,
she laments for nothing at all andris al
ways ILL" And Twashtri received the
woman again. But eight days later the
man came again to the god and said:
'My lord, my life is very 0 li.ary
since returned this creature. l re-
member she danced before my singing.
l recall how she glanced at me from
the corner Of her eye, that she played
with me, clung- to me" And Twashtri
returned the woman to him. Three
days only passedtand Twashtri saw the
man coming to him again.
"My lord" said he, II do not under
stand exactly how, but I'm SURF the
woman causes me more annoyance
than pleasure. I beg of you relieve me
of her"
But Twashtri cried, go your way
and do your best!"
And the man cried, II cannot live
with herr
Neither can you live without her."
replied Twashtri.
And the man went sorrowfully away,
murmuring, Woe is me; Lean neither
live with her nor without her."-Col-
lier's Weekly.

WORLDS FAIR NOTES.

As a preliminary to the exhibit of
Louisiana at the Worlds Fair. it lis
proposed to celebrate the centennial Of
the admission of that state into the
Union. The date is December 2s, 1908.
The celebration will be held in New
Orleans.
a Virginia is considering an apmopria-
ton of $4,000 for state representation
at the Worlds Fair. That state. the
home Of Thomas Jefferson, who bought
the Louisiana territory. has more than
ordinary interest in the coming ex-
position.
It is announced that Francis j. Nor
ton, of Savannah, Ga, has been com
missioned to design the Chinese build
ing for the Worlds Fair at st. Louis.
MI. Norton was architect of the Chi
nese building at the Columbian Expo
sition at Chicago.
Little trace remains at the Worlds
Fair of the recent damage from the
storm of wind and rain which swept
over the country. The section OF the
varied industries building, which was
blown down is nearly in place again.

'Two-what?"
The man seemed to take this as chal-
longing his ~veracity, for he looked
questioningly at the palmettos and
prickly pears beside the path, then be
gan to scratch his head.

1t seems to the Progress that there
is a niger III the woodiple as applied
TO the proposed amendments to the
constitution to be voted upon at the
next election and until the woodpile
is uncovered so we can see for our
selves whether or not the niger is
there the Progress will not supportthe
proposition. The fact that Col L.
NJ Garrett of Carthage, who was in
the city yesterday, is travelling around
over the country at, it is supposed,
his own expense, advocating the adop-
ton of the amendments rather leaves
the suspicion that there is something
wrong. Why not leave it to the
voters of after discussing the matter
through the press of the state? The
man who travels over the state in the
interest of a certain political issue
with no hope of reward is too pa
triotic for these times. But take it
for granted that it is patriotic
motive only, it must be admitted that
there is little too much legislation
in this state already for the good it
does. instead of biennial sessions it
would be better for the state if the
legislature met only every eight years
and it would still have been better if
some of the sessions had never been
held at all.

Tupleo, where John Allen will put

The Progress several years ago tried
to get our people interested III such
factory and some parties went so far
as to make an investigation, but the
matter fell through. But the factory
at Tupelo would not now interfere
with jeans pants and overall factory
here. Such a factory would doubt
less be a paying institution, for there

one. The committee must have had
some object for excluding these gem
tlemen, and presumable all others who
might have applied for admission, but
just what the object was has not
vet been made known 1t is, how
ever, the first time the Progress ever
heard of a meeting of county execu-
tive committee being held privately
or at least with closed doors. This
one was not held with closed doors, if
the Progress is reliably informed, but
it had as we'll been when it excluded
two of the city's taxpayers. 1t may
have been on account of the fact that
the report is current that these gentle
men are republicans and republicans
are not allowed to be on-lOOkers at a
democratic meeting, but as they did
not propose and could not take part in
the proceedings, it does not seem that
their presence would have cut much
figure. However, the committee must
have had a good reason for its action
and it is left with it to state it. AS
the proceedings are published else
