was railway mail clerk, became objec-
tionable to some of the citizens Of IN
dianola and she finally was requested by
them to resign her Office Threats were
made against her and she was led to be-
Eeve that her life was in danger. She
expressed 70 the Postoffice Department a
desire to resign, but when the facts were
developed, the Department declined to
permit her to do SO. Feeling over the
matter became bitter and, as Mrs. Cox
felt that she could not remain in the office
with safety to herself, the office was
closed, the government refusing to make
any other arrangement. For long time
the people of Indianola have been reeelv-
ing their mail from Greenville, town

native route designated IN the statute.
Mr.. Simmons continued:
at is contested and vehementy assert
ed by some OF the opponents OF this
treaty that a vote for its ratification, un-
der the circumstances, is tantamount to
condoning the action OF the 2dministra-
tion, both as to the revolution and to
the recognition. If I thought that, as IA
vorablv as I regard this treaty, as deeDI--
important to us as is the immediate cor
struction of the canal, and as veXatious
as | am sure will be the delays in the
commencement of that great work, if
this treaty ehould be defeated l do not
think | could vote Tor it
Il join my colleagues on this side OF
the chamber in condemning Whateveh
the wrong the President and the admin
istration may have done in bringing about
the independence of Panama, but in my
vote upon the treaty / propose to recog-
nize and act upon the fact that Panama
is an independent State, possessed of equal
rights and powers to make this treaty
as we ourselves possess, not only with
our consent, but with the unanimous con-
sent of all the civilized nations of the
world.
ITO my mind, you might as we'll say
that / cannot administer on the estate
Of dead man without approving of his
death, as to say that I cannot act upon
the admitted fact that Panama IS an in
dependent nation without approving o1
the means by which that independence
was achieved"
Mr.. Simmons also announced his lnten-
ton to vote for the various resolutions ot
inquiry and closed with the expression
or a desire that Colombia might be com
rensated for her loss.
Other Democratic Senators who
are expected to speak in favor Of the
treaty are Seantors Clay of Georgia, Nal
lory of Florida and Clark Of Arkansas.
The Republicans were today claiming the

pressed an intention of voting for the

the Napoleon in shirtwaists.
Linen, both sheer and
heavy, is tremendously popu-

There is a leaning toward
delicate effects; heavy en-
broidery is used, but designs
are smaller than last season.
Teneriffe work is much in
evidence, Renaissance is
seen on the sheer linens. On
many, tiny pleats are the sole
trimming.
All the new waists are es-
sentially feminine - t h a t
