story of double life has been
revealed by the filing at Shell

Shelby county, of suit to re.
cover the estate and pension
money Of the late John Stivers,
formerly a we'll known resident
of Shelby county, who deserted
his wife and four children
about twenty years ago and
lived until eighteen months ago
with another woman as his
wife. His death occurred Oct.
26, 1906, in Oklahoma. He was
the father Of eight children.
four by his first wife and tour
by his second. The plaintiffs
in the present suit at law al
lege that be was never divorc
ed from their mother and that
she and her children are en-
titled to the estate and pension.
Stivers was a veteran of the
civil war and drew a pension
until his death. Since that
time, it is alleged, the money
has been received by the woman
in Oklahoma, who claims to be
his wife.

Political gossips about the

which came here yesterday af-

sources to the effect that James
H. Whitecotton, who had pro-
claimed himself as the Folk
candidate for the governorship,
is to withdraw from the con-
test, prompted so to do by the
entrance into the arena of Judge
Evans. 1t is a feature of the
story that when Mr.. Whitecot-

The Little Woman In Blue,

Sally BIS ready skill soon had the an
kle rubbed to comparative ease. She
prescribed bed; but Miss Hamilton de.
clared for the banquet even II she
must be carried there. and gladly ac-
cepted Stella's offer of help with the
dressing.
Miss Hamilton's lingerie was hardly
less costly and dainty than my lady's
OF to-day. White silk hose and satin
slippers; multiplied skirts more lace
than cambria; the combination OF lace
and blue silk tissue that was the flmy
little gown-with careful hands Stella
unpacked and laid them, 8 snowy
heap, on the bed.
The toilet went slowly. Stella had
been taught a decent respect for the
human body; and her innate love OF
beauty and order had blossomed into
an honest personal n~eatness. But
such complicated hair-dressing, such
caressing Of eyebrow and lash; such
critical attention to hands and nails;
the bathing, hot and cold; the rub
bling and patting Of cheek and arm, be-
fore lotion. powder, and a wee touch of
rouge went on: the examinations at
each stage with hand glass and mir

about the splendid way all the work

"If we only had iron, iron! That's
what binders us. There isn't half

That's a sail for you. And the gales,

As they neared the camps their
conversation changed from railroad TO
other subjects-the latest book; the
newest dance; the poem or picture
most in the public eye. From topic to
topic they fitted, up and down the
polite world of their day.
To Stella, striving TO lose no word,
It was new, intoxicating. That's my
world, too" she thought. Il could say
things like those. I know a little Of
mythology and history" She Won
dered why she had never used such
language with Alfred, why he had not
talked with her as he did now with
Miss Hamilton.
Stella lifted her head in a spirit Of
rebellion quite new to her. She could
never acquire this subtle manner and
she should not stand in Alfred's way.
He would succeed. From serving he
would soon advance to ordering. He
would need a wife like Miss Hamilton.
Mr.. Crocker called Alfred for some
questioning, and in his absence Miss
Hamilton turned to Stella. I'm
afraid I'm ~monopolizing this oppor-
tunity, Miss Anthony. It's m first

The young people Jagged, in spite of
the call of the leaders, and arrived at
the camps to find them already alive
with men and beasts.
"Oh, ] must see the Chinese camps"
Miss Hamilton cried. I've heard OF
them"
They were in time to see the cooks
serving from great cauldrons to each
man his little keller full of boiling
water. There was also an array Of big
black pots simmering over camp fires,
yet white and savory messes were
within, announced by attractive odors.
What do they do with those little
tubs" Miss Hamilton asked as she

Stella WINGED, yet chided herself

only in fun" Still, how could this
delicately reared city girl believe such
a big, awkward creature as herself
capable Of filling any but q mental DO
sition? The real unkindness for which
Miss Hamilton failed to apologize, the
scant minutes she had left Stella for
her own toilet, went unnoticed; for
