Mississippi State Fair.

The management of the Miss
issippi State Fair announces their
Fifth annual show to be given at
Jackson beginning with Tuesday,
October the 9th and continuing
until November 9th. This is usu-
| ally a very pleasant time Of the
year, when the crops are mainly
harvested, when schools have all
assembled, and a little recreation
can be easily taken by the far
mers, schools, and business people
generally.
The State Fair has steadily
grown from the beginning at the
Old Capitol Building until it has
been necessary to put up new
buildings and equipments each
year. Philosophical citizens
from various counties and locali-
ties in the State have aided great
ly in the growth and usefulness
of this annual show. All the re-
lceipts from operation Of the Fair
have been expended in premiums
and ntertainments, and improve
ments on Old Capitol grounds.
And each season public subscrip-
tons have been made by Jackson
business men to make the Fam
better, and give to the public the
very highest class Of entertain
lment.
New buildings have been

THE MODERN MISTRESS 10.
Charming and Cultured Women
of the Five Civilized Tribes.

In Indian Territory dwell the
Indians that are known as the
five civilized tribes-the Chero-
KEGS, Choctaws, Chickasaws,
Seminoles and Greeks and of
all the American Indians these
tribes are the most advanced in
civilization, the most progress
i've, and have reached a higher
stage of development than any
others of the red race. tits here
one finds Indians who are ora
tors, statesmen, men of great
wealth and business ability, and
men successful in all the pro-
LESSONS. And it is among these
tribes one finds modern Mistress
Lo-the most refined type 4 of
Indian Womanhood. She is quite
a hundred years removed from
savagery, and although educa-
ton, intermarriage with the
white race and ali the processes
of her interesting evolution have
tended to obliterate Indian Gus
toms and many of the Indian
characteristics, making modern
Mistress Lo to all intents and
purposes a white woman, she is
yet an Indian, and proudly traces
her ancestry to Indian chiefs and
warriors. Even those possess
ing only a fractional part of In
dian blood will tell you, II am,
an Indian" with as much con-
viction as if they were full
bloods. 1t is therefore some
what Of a surprise to those who
hold the general opinion of the
Indian woman to come among
her people as they exist to-day
among the five civalized tribes of
the Indian Territory. Instead
of finding Mistress Lo in front of
her wigWarm pounding corn,
with perhaps, her brown pap
poose strapped to board beside
her for thus many picture her
one sees her as civilization has
transformed her-a handsome,
correctly goWned American wo-
man, comparing favorably with
her white sisters, She presides
over a "Wigwam" built after the
latest styles of architecture and
furnished tastefully, comfort
ably, often elegantly; she is
easily the leader of social affairs
in all the towns of Indian Ter
ritory, and carries herself with
the grace and assurance of any
other refined and cultured
American woman.
We find among the Indian Wo-
men Of the Territory graduates
from many Of the best education-
al institutions of the south and
east.
Mistress Lo plays an active
part in the life of her people. In
the Territory one meets Indian
women who are musicians,
artists, writer's and teachers;
those who are achieving success
lin professional pursuits and in
the business world. It would be
a difficult task, indeed, to point
out all the brilliant women of the
Territory who boast Indian
blood. As aclubWoman Mistress
10 is quite prominent today. In
every town there are literary,
musical and social clubs, and
among the most enthusiastic
workers are Indian women.

Dust laden with the germs of con-

on every street, but disease does not
develop unless the germs find condi-
tons suitable for growth.
In the catarrhal condition there is

more than one officer could do to

CHIEF SHORT STARTS
HIS new CHAIN GANG
One Intractable Prisoner Given Rig.
orous Course BY Chief Of
Police.

Chief of Police Short started his
chain gang Tuesday with two of the
vacancies filled. one of the applicants
being compelled TO wear a ball and
chain, as he refused to work. Today
the gang will be reinforced by six
or eight new eligibles, and improve
ments in the appearances of the
streets are promised.
The police court has been handi-
capped for want of this gang, and a
number of petty criminals have been
allowed to go free rather than go to
the expense of feeding them.
With the gang at work it is
thought the applicants for lodging
at the city Jail will be decreased.

What Women Wear.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1S.-New
spring materials are now appearing
in all the shops and the display is
much larger than usual Wooden
materials for lightweight tailored
suits are in great demand and
checks instead of stripes are receiv-
ing the most favor Checks of bril-
liant red, blue and purple are seen
on white ground, and irregular
checks are seen in white with black,
prune blue and dull colors. Mixed
goods will be much in vogue. In
stead of plain pin stripe will be
one outlined by threads of a crude
color which give a pleasing effect
Mixed gray fabrics will continue to
be worn; they always look neat and
are very attractive. Cheviots will
ever be in fashion and the heavier
English cloths are most desirable for
long listers.
Thin materials We're never love
her. Silk null will be popular VITA
large soft flowers on a plain back
ground. Scotch plaid messaline and
two-tone striped silk, it is predicted,
will have quite run. Among the
less expensive dress fabrics for shirt
waist dresses are printed cotton fou-
lards in pin stripes or checks and the
fancy bright-faced silks which come
in the one and two-tone effects.
Lowenette" is new cotton mate
rial which has a satin-like finish.
This will be very pretty and service
able for lightweight jacket suits for
spring and summer.

A HERO.

Not all heroes receive medals,
nor do all heroes have monuments

heroism of every day life goes IN

oveIalls are overlooked in our anx-
iety to pay tribute to heroes in mil
itary trappings. The Little Rock
lark. } Gazette tells of a hero in
overalls, but through a regretable
oversight fails to mention his
name. Two men, both members
of the same brotherhood, were en-
ployed under local agent of an
Arkansas railroad. When the re-
cent financial furry was on in full
force the agent was told to dis
charge one of the men. One en-
ployee was unmarried, and he was
entitled to the job by reason Of the
longest service. The other man
had a wife and four small children.
The agent called in the two men
and explained the situation. 81

DRY.CLEANING DAINTY GAR
NENTS.

The question of how to clean
blouse waists of crepe de chine,
moussel;ne de sole, and other fine
fabrics, comes up every few weeks,
no matter how often it ia snswer-
ed. Here is a way that is recon-
mended: Place the waist in some
jar which can be covered, and
cover it with gasolene, leaving for
twenty-four hours at least. After
this, take from the jar and place
in clean gasoline, and look over it
to see that DO stains are in the
material; then hang it on the
line in the air to dry; brush with
a clean, soft brush, when thor
oughly dry. No rubbing or scrub
bling should be done. To destroy
the odor of gasoline which clings
to the garment, iron the article,
as heat will kill the scent on the
clothes. Do not put the garment
away in wardrobe or drawer until
the scent of the gasoline is we'll
gone; then wrap in tissue paper
with a sachet powder sprinkled
over it.
