A War Harem.

The Gar Of Russia has recalled
from the front Duke Boris whom he
has just ascertained has as a part CT
his military suite a harem of seven
women. They consume several cases
Of champagne daily and insist on ::
military escort The Car is learning
why his armies are so poorly COM
manded. In most countries a harem
of that size is not considered a part
of a commanders outfit. Once the
Sultan of Turkey aroused the animos-
ity of his entire army by delaying
the marcn to the enemy. The soldiers
were anxious to engage in battle but
the Sultan had a new favorite in his
harem and was in no hurry to move.
The army finally gathered at the Pal
ace and the Sultan was informed that
his conduct was causing the troops
to growl
The Sultan however proved to be
man of action. He did not wish 20
be considered a mere boulder soldier
To assure the soldiers that he was
| through with his foOlishness he
caused the head of the lady in The
case to be cut off and presented to
| the army on the head Of a spear.
He at once appeared at the head
of the squadron on charger and re
marked in deep base voice. "F0r
ward march"
The army responded with a cheer
and he was again solid with his sol
dlers.

Incidental Measures.

Among the incidental measures in

X. McLauril, of Warren, who wants
the first Monday in September, known
as Labor Day, observed as legal hol.
iday in Mississippi. The legislature
heretofore has always been willing to
create as many holidays as the people
want, and Senator McLaurin is prac-
tically assured of getting what he asks
for.
Senator Marlborough wants females

fore the Snake Indians and kecto.

their homes In the southern part Of

have left their cattle and their grain
and are holding dances every night.
All kinds OF threats have been made
against the white settlers in the full
blood districts, and they are alarmed
to the extent Of arming themselves
and sendilg word to the officials here
TO send aid at moments notice.
When the Indians left they promised
to return soon and said that when
they did there would not be a white
man left in the country, An alarm
ing feature is the fact that the S iakes
have kept In constant communication
with the Keetowahs, and have prom
ised to join them whenever they are
ready to make a raid. The Snakes

A measure introduced in the senate
last week which is attracting much
attention among the members Is the
measure Of Senator H. j. McLauril, !,
of Rolling Fork. which seeks to ''dlf.
ierentiate lynching from murder In
other words, Senator McLaurln seeks
10 SO amend the criminal statutes that
a person convicted Of participating in
a lynching or other action of mob rio-
lence resulting in the loss ol life can
not be condemned as for murder, or
even assault and battery with the in
tent 10 kill and murder. More briefly
stated, participation in lynchin2
shall be a lesser crime than commit
Ting murder. and the punishment for
lynching shall be such as may be de.
fined by the trial jury and not by the
court
II any person has ever been con-
yictcd of the crime of lynchine in Mis-.
sissppi and punished as for murder,
the case is not on record, Senator
McLaurin believes that as lynching is
a lesser offense in the public mild
than murder, II Should be so written
in the statutes. The bill is being con-
sidered by the judiciary committee.

ABOUT IMPORTANT BILLS.
New Annotated Code.

Owing TO the fact that the edition
has been exhausted, very few of the
legislators have been provided with
copies of the annotated code at this
session. and the lack of this volume
on the legislative desks is one of the
strong arguments why a new codi.
fication OF the laws should be provided
for before adjournment. 1t is stated
that about one.half of the justices Of
tho peace who went into Office a few
days since have been unable to secure
copies OF the code. their predecessors
refusing to sell their volumes, and
many of them are therefore compelled
to either borrow copies or guess az
