Handsome Portrait Of Jefferson Davis
Becomes Property Of the State.

jackson, Miss, Dec. THE
final arrangements have been COM
pIeted and the programme per-
fected for the presentation to the
State of the handsome portrait of
Jefferson Davis, the President of
the Confederate States and Missis-
sippi's most distinguished son,
which is painted by a distinguish
ed Washington artist. The like
ness of Jefferson Davis will be
given to the State by the local
chapter of the Daughters of the
Confederaey, which organization
raised the fund to have the por-
trait made.
The presentation will take place
Jan. 10, the birthday of Robert
e. Lee, the leader of the armies
of the Confederacy. The cere-
monies will be held in the House
of Representatives.
On the afternoon of the 10Th a
general reception will be rendered
the Daughters of the Confederacy
from over the State by Miss Katie
Porter, President Of the local
chapter of the Daughters of tie
Confederacy, at the Porter resi-
dence on Northwest street. Many
members of the State Division of
the organization will be present.
At s o'clock in the Hall of Rep
resentatiVes of the new Capitol,
the presentation will take place.
The likeness of JGTerson Davis
will be unveiled by Mrs. E. o.
Gregory, who originated the plan
to present to the State this pic
ture, and to whose Individual
efforts is largely due the success
of the movement.
Miss Katie Porter, as President
of the w. D. Holder Chapter Of
the Daughters of the Confederacy,
will present tc Gov. Vardaman
the picture, and the Governor
will accept the likeness on behalf
of the State, and in turn present
it to Dunbar Rowland, Director
of the Department of Archives
and History, who will accept it
in behalf of his department..
The exercises promise to bring
a large number of people to the
city, as the Daughters of the Con-
federacy from over the State are
expected to take part, and partici-
pate in the programme. Many
prominent visitors will be invit-
ed. Mrs. Davis, the wife of
President Jefferson Davis, will be
invited, but it is hardly probable,
owing to her ill-health, that she
will be present. Mrs. Hayes, of
Colorado, Jefferson Davis daugh-
ter, will also be invited. Gen. S.
D. Lee, President Of the Confed-
crate Veterans, and other promi-
nent veterans will be present.

 ing the rainy season that this plan has been but little adopted The only method which will produce results and the one which will shortly be put ill operation is that of draining Dams will be erected 300 feet apart and centrifugal pumps will be installed for the purposes of drawing off the water. The results of the work cannot be a question of doubt, judging from the past per formances of these diamond mines
 The question naturally arises, Why have tie diamonds heen found in the San Jose? The answer to this is not difficult, and Is given when we state that the original rock which formerly occupied the high plateau-has been gradually disin.eg,ated, the debris of the rock being carried by rains into the San Jose. Because of their density the black and white diamonds were concealed under the sand, together with the mineral accessories which surround them and which are the indications of the precious stones. Thus i'll the course of years these beds have been formed, beds the richness of which is incalcula ble = Jules TurpeAn, ir Par.s paper.

cause It IS destined 70 etnDellSh the hand of feminine grace, but because of the fact that 1t has been widely applied in industry, where 1t IS almost as valuable as it's white fellow. The home of the black diamond is Brazil, the classical land of the diamond, the richest beds of the mineral having been found i'll the province of Bahia and on the banks and iu the bed of the San lose river. The stone. which is perfectly opaque, is not beautiful, ard if the magical word diamond had never been apl lied to the sub stance, there is no doubt that to this day the black diamond would be a thing unknown. However, the favor which this mineral enjoys is of very recent date, for twenty years ago its properties were un- known and the trade in the stone was practically nothing.
 The constantly increasing per lection of boring instruments brought out the value of the black diamond, the use of diamond point drills nov having become so gen. etal that the price of the mineral has iii consequence rapidly increas eI Tol4y the diamond has become of prime necessity in working tenn pered metals, .aWirg of III l s, piercing of tun"e.s and galleries, and in mines.
