Governor Retains ATTORNEYS.

Assurance is given by Gov Varda-
man that Mississippi's contention in
the boundary dispute with Louisiana
involving territory valued at $4,000
900, and which is now pending before
the United States Supreme Court, will
not be allowed to go by forfeit, not
withstanding the failure of the legisla-
ture to provide proper compensation
for the attorneys engaged to represent
the State
Gov. Vardaman will ratify the for
mer agreement made with the Hon.
Monroe McClurg, of Greenwood, the
Hon. Hannis L. Taylor of Washington
and Messrs. Dodds and Griffith of BIZ
loxi, and these attorneys will look to
the next legislature for compensation.
An agreement to this effect was reach
ed last week after a conference be-
tween the governor and Gen. Nc
Clurg.
Notice has been received from At
torney General Guion, of louisiana
that the taking of testimony on be-
half of that State will be commenced
on April and continue until the
work is concluded. Gen. McClurg will
be present to conduct the cross-ex-
animation of witnesses in behalf of
Mississippi, and will be assisted by
Messrs. Dodds and Griffith. After
Louisiana's testimony is concluded,
testimony for Mississippi will be TAX
en-, and both sides will then have re-
buttal. Arguments will probably be
delivered before the United States Su-
preme Court next October.

Were Good to Themselves.

An examination of the records in
the State treasurer's office shows that
the State paid 81 each for the chairs
used in the senate during the session
just closed. The total number of
chairs purchased was forty-eight and
the bill rendered to the capitol COM
mission shows total cost of $192.
Notwithstanding this fact the senate
adopted resolution allowing it's mem
hers to purchase the chairs and desks
they had occupied during the session
at the uniform price of So each. The
principal involved in the affair is caus-
ing the members of the senate to be
subjected to some very caustic criti-
cism.
The house passed a similar resolu-
ton, allowing the members to pur-
chase their desks and chairs for 50
each, but the house furniture was all
old, and had been in use for many
years. These desks and chairs, how.
ever, were unquestionably worth much
more than So each, and the members
paid a cheap price for these posses
sions, which it is alleged they desired
merely as a matter of sentiment.

like hooiaioai Ito testify, but what do
you suppose his opinion is of the English
word Strength not to mention
strength'nd"
An American, after a long residence in
COnstantinOple, wrote:
There is only one word in al my let
tiers which | am certain of not having
spelt wrong, and that is the word bactsh-
tlSch. which signifies a present | have
heard it so often. and my ear is so accus-
toned to the tongue and my tongue TO
the pronunciation, that | am now GER
tain am not wrong to the hundredth
part of whisper or lisp. There Is no
other word in the Turkish so we'll i'm
pressed on my mind, and so we'll remem-
bered. Whatever else I have written.
BGctShtaSchi my earliest acquaintance in
the Turkish language, shall never for

The American was really referring to

an illustration of it in the name of Tolstoi
or Tolstoy. There is corresponding
semi-vowel for use after consOnantS, but
1T is much nearer the vanishing point, so
near that there is nothing in English to
remotely represent it. 1t is almost as
hard for the unframed ear to detect the
sound as it is for the eye to see the breath
The third semi-vowel has no sound of it's

weak consonants 1t changes the sound
into that OF the corresponding strong let
tiers. Thus, b is sounded as p, V as f,
G as X. ID as T, and X as S. You may

the Russian letters. or Kishineff" if you
wish to make the sound clear to the I'M
derstanding of the English reader. Thus
the " Aleksandrov" of Russian may he
translated as 'Alexandroff. although in
Russian the letter Y does not have the
sound of ks" The effect of this semi
vowel on the other consonants is to harden
those consonants. At least the Rus
slams say so, and | will take their word
for it. for the difference in sound is too
subtle mystery for my ear to discover it.
Yet on the whole the Russian consO-
nants are easy of pronunciation when
attacked separately. In some Of their
combinations they may well terrify an
English speaker. For example: ode
(where). ktO (who). chto (whatl. rdova
(widow), mHe (me). nyanyd (nurse-maid).
