Sardis Negro will Not Hang.

A special from Sardis says:
Through the efforts of few
citizens of this place, Charley
Orr, convicted Of assault a year
ago, has had his sentence commu-
ted from the death penalty to life
Imprisonment in the penitentiary.
Orr's case had been before the
supreme court, and the lower
court was upheld by that high
tribunal, and the date for the ex-
'cution was reset for next Wed
rosday. The sc&ffold stands in
readiness in the court house at
this place, but the news has
reached the sheriff that there viii
be no hanging, Gov. Longino hav-
ing commuted Orr's sentence to-
life Imprisonment.
Considerable doubt has existed
in the minds of many who heard
the trial of the guilt of the con-
demned man, aud it was for this
reason that an effort was made to
secure the governors interfer-
ence. Orr had previously been
removed to the jail at Batesville,
it being considered safer than the
one at this place. The governors s
action is commended by the bet
ter class of citizens of this place.

six months duration, on the 2Sth

est child of Mr.. and Mrs. j. S.
B. Boone. As / knew him in all
the relations of life, from child
hood to manhood, in a brief por-
trayal [ would say: He was honest,
truthful, candid and loyal. AT
the early age of 16 years he vol
unteered as a Confederate soldier
and the southern army did not
possess a more loyal one, or one
who more willingly performed all
his duties, and unerringly with
stood all the hardships incidental
to southern soldiers life. Al
his death he was surrounded by
his entire family and with kindly
sympathies ard loving hands min
istered to his every want. Some
years ago he became member
of the Baptist church and at hi:
death gave every evidence ant
assurance of entering triumphant
ly into that bright beyond, pre-
pared for the eternal happines

faith. He leaves wife, sol

OF the millions of people, who today suffer

a direct attack upon the nerves, putting an

LINCOLN's PICTURE.
will Hang in the Capitol Bnt Not in

1t appears that the public has,
to a certain extent, been under a
misapprehension as tn the loca,
ton of the portrait of President
Lincoln, which will not be placed
in the mississippi Hall of Fame, y
as has been generally thought,
but simply hung in the Historical
Department. Director Rowland
to-day called the attention of the
Times. Democrat correspondent to
the fact that his invitation to Hon
Robert T. Lincoln to present the
portrait was coupled with the
statement that it was wanted to
hang in the Mississippi capitol.
and not in the Hall of Fame, men
tion of which was simply made to
show what the department was
doing along the line of collecting
portraits of prominent men. The
hanging of the portrait of Mr..
Lincoln in the rooms of the de-
partment in the new capitol will
have all the significance attribn.
ted by the metropolitan press,
North and South, to the act. but
will silence the criticism that has
arisen because of the impression
that the portrait was to be hung

Suggestions as TO What
Easter will Bring Forth

New York, April 2.-The Easter
fashion parade this year will not be
the carnival OF color that has marked
previous professions; while there will
be beautiful variety Of unts among
the gowns worn Easter Sunday colors
will not run riot. Harmony is the key.
note OF the seasons modes. and the
arbiters of fashion have perfected
their plans so thoroughly that all OF
the contrasting shades may be blend.
ed into an exquisite ensemble. II need
be.
Violet has been superseded by gray
and tan. yet It combines effectively
with both. 1t is more the fashion
however to associate odd colors with
lace in the trimming OF the gown. II
is observed in many OF the most ele-
CANT toilettes that the laces which
adorn them have their patterns traced
with narrow, thread.like bands OF silk
which are embroidered In silver, gold
or steel beads, or embellished with
French knots. The latter are less ex.
pensive and always fashionable.
The gown in which this idea is
beautifully carried out Is designed
for afternoon wear. The skirt Is shir.
red In several rows at intervals OF
about nine inches from the belt to the
knees. A. this point the fulness flares
into a graceful sweep all around the
figure. but the train is not very decid'
ed.
From the bust line TO the belt the
bodice is laid in graceful folds that
suggest a cross between tucks and
plaits. The yoke. which is OF yak lace
is threaded with narrow strips OF
mauve satin embroidered in cut steel
beads. The collar is cut in one piece
with the yoke. which is finished with
four elongated tabs. with hemstitched
edges. These tabs fail over the
bloused front of the bodice. and ar,
made OF gray tafeta In addition L
the hemstitching they are applique'
with medallions OF beaded lace.
The sleeves are tucked at IN
shoulders and above the lace cuni
and the space intervening above am
below the elbow is encrusted with nj
applique Of lace. The effcct OF tn
gown Is sunningly set on by
spreading hat OF gray French chin
trimmed with the same color plumei
and satin violets.
