For the past week the section
of country around Memphis, COW
ering Western Tennessee, North
Mississippi and Arkansas has
been as rough weather as was
ever experienced in this section.
There has been a series of hot
and cold changes unusual for
this season of the year, and with
each comes more or less of dis
aster of life and damage to prop,
erty. The loss to life during the
recent storms that have spread
over the three states has been
greater than ever before and the
loss in property value cannot be
computed. With all three eX-
IRENE changes the weather bu-
reau has failed to warn the peo-
pie by a forecast of their ap-
proach and the usual reports of
Showers" fair" with variable
winds continue.

Representative H~ollingsworth
of Ohio has filed his resolution
in the house of representative
calling for information from the
navy department as to the prob
able appearance of the portrait
of Jefferson Davis on the silver
service to be presented to the
b~attleship Mississippi by the
people of the state. Mr.. Hollings-
worth belongs to that class Of
peanut politicians who get no.
toriety out of such incidents and
his p resence in the national
house of representa- tives would
meyer have been known to the
people generally but for this res
olution. Unless Mississippians
are left to decide among them
selves the character of service
that shall be presented, the YES
sci bearing the proud name of
the state should be denied the
the usual courtesy. The officers
of the vessel, however, are no
doubt gentlemen and we shall
hear nothing from them Of an
Objectionable character when the
service is rendered them.

Privilege Taxes Due

The various sheriffs of the
states are now busy with'the col
lection of privilege licenses, all
of which expire during the month
of May. The privilege tax is the
source of considerable revenue
for the state, and it is estimated
that the state treasury will re-
ceive in the neighborhood OF
$500, 900 from this source. The
operation of the privilege tax ex-
pands at each session of the
legislature, and there are now
but few lines Of business that
are exempt. The doctors, preach
ers and newspapers are still in
the exempt class. The privi-
lege tax was formerly imposed
upon circuses, lightning rod
agents and quacks, but it has
been placed on practically every
avocation and business.

Decoration Day AT Baldwin

Decoration Day AT Baldwin
Monday next, the 10th inst, is
the annual decoration day of the
graves Of Confederate soldiers in
the cemetery at Baldwin. Dur
ing the lifetime Of the lamented
Capt. P. M. Savery, it was his
custom to take a leading part in
this beautiful ceremony, and the
10th of May never passed with
out it's observance. Now that
Capt. Slavery sleeps beside his
noble comrades, and can no longer
inspire us by his example, we
should not forget to pay tribute
to the memory of the heroes
buried at Baldwin.
Those who desire to send flow
ers can do so by sending them to
the 6;25 northbound train Mon
day morning. Mrs. F. M. Savery
will go to Baldwin on the train,
and will carry flowers sent to the
train. The contributions should
be numerous, and beautiful.

Probability of Life

Most people until they reach
the age of at least forty do not
give much attention to the pro-
liabilities Of life. The fact is
most Of them do not take into
consideration the possibility of
dying at all, But when a man
reaches middle life he begins to
scan the future a trife more
anxiously. Insurance experts
have of course made a study of
this matter of life and death. and
have the general averages down
to a fine point. If you are 40 and
in good health the chances are
about nine to one that you will
live to be so. If you are so and
in good health the chances are
about five to one that you will
live to be 60 and about one and a
half to one that you will live to
be 70; about l to 5 that you will
live to be 80. II you are 60 and
in good health the chances are 2
to / that. you will live to be 70,
and about l to 4 that you will
hang on until you are 80. If you
are 70 and in good health the
chances are 3 to 8 that you will
live to be 80 and you stand one
chance in so that you will live to
be 80 If you are 80 and still in
good health the chances are l to
II that you will live to be 80. If
you are 80 and still in good health
well, you are liable in that
event to hang on until you are
anywhere from 100 to 200 years
Of age.--EX.

preliminary surveys are made
the route will be selected and the

"Uncle Joe's New Story"

between congress and the White
House, Uncle Joe" is credited
with a story that has set all con-
gress to laughing, says an ex-
change. 1t deals with a member
of the house who went home
after a late session at the club
rather wobbly as to legs and
somewhat thick as to speech. At
3o'clock in the morning Mrs.
Congressman dug her snoring
spouse in the ribs with her ell
bow.
John" she whispered excit-
eddy, John. wake up!"
Ugh" he grunted.
John, for mercy's sake wake
up!" she whispered again, en-
phazing her appeal with a second
vigorous dig. Another grunt
was all that greeted her.
For heavens sake John, wake
up!' she whispered frantically,
there are robbers in the house!''
You're mistake M DEAR"
said the congressman, composing
himself for sleep. 'Ain't any
robbers in the house. They're
all in the senate"

May POth, Famous Beauty With "TOp Q, til World

Once or twice in the course of a
century there flashes upon the world
a woman so wondrOusly lovely that all
the nations pause and look on en-
tranced and cry beautiful
And then we know that Old Time,
the arch magician, has brought forth
another miracle, an international
beauty.
OF such women, the myths Of Greece
and the legends of southern France
hold records, while in modern years
they have appeared in rare intervals.
In the latter case it is natural that the
stage should be the medium through
which they come into the worlds eye.
Such was Lillian Russell from America,
aud such today is May POth, who came
from a quaint, gray little fishing vii
lage far up on the storm-haunted
coast of Sweden.
This is the first season that May
POth has appeared on this side of the
Atlantic, where she entered in the
role OF a trUmpeter i'm "The Top o. tn
" Grid" which plays at the salt Lake
theatre Friday and Saturday. With
all the suddenness and brilliancy Of a
comet, she has dazzled herself into
recognition as this Centurys luterna-
tional beauty.
There are scores of pretty. and
charming girls in the cast Of THE Top
o. tn World" that captivating musical
play which anticipated both DIT. Cook
and Commander PearY IN discovering
the wonders of the far North pole.
There are piquant. sprightly girls,
who can dance and sing bewitchingly.
There are girls that a sculptor would
grow famous in modelling. There is
every type and style of alluring femi-
uInity but there IS only one May POth.
She stands alone there, as elsewhere
as the one woman whose beauty may
be called International
Just nineteen years ago she was born

/ beneath the misty sky of Sweden in
little village where her father and
mother had halted on their journey to
Stockholm. In that city she passed
her glrlhOOd. Even as a tiny lass she
gave promise of that care and per-
lection of feature which has now made
her renowned. Her skin was LFanSpar-
emily clear, but enriched with a rOsi-
ness that came and went in waves of
color. Eyes. nose, mouth and chin
were as faUltless as those of a mas
ter's statue. People turned to look
at her as she ran past, her opulent
hair blown back by the wind.
But the miracle OF WGmannOOd had
not yet come into her eyes and ripened
her budding loneliness. Each year
seemed TO bring out some new ana
startling charm. At sixteen she looked
like some young queen of the Cloths.
At nineteen she looked like a goddess
of the Vikings.
Here is the beauty of the north, you
think at your first, glance. But as
YOU look again you see the ent1clng
warmth and suppleness OF the south,
and then as she turns the SDIendOr of
the orient a lure like that of Cleo
patra's steals over you. You see not
one woman but all women who have
ever kindled the eyes of painters or
lightened the way of great poets of
fame. She is forever charming and
forever new. One moment she seems
a shy maiden and the next a full blown
queen, and she Is all of these. Not
through any trick OF stagecraft or
and the marvellous years have cOnspired
to make her so. She embOdies the
spirit of beauty which we catch every
where in fleeing CLEANS, the spirit
of beauty which we catch everywhere
but only once or twice in century
grows incarnate in its full splendor
and claims the wonder of nations every
where.
