The ladies of the Home Mission So
ciety of the M. E. Church, South, gave
a highly interesting entertainment at
the school-house here on Friday even
ing. Some thrilling music was rem
dered by the Misses Cook, of Hatties-
burg. Their execution would have
been a credit to professionals in the
field--s--r~--sr music.
Miss Pearl DAnham r~-ited IN spren-
did perfection several pieces, among
which was the "Convict's Pardon"

sent a violin to the Governor. She
also gave the audience farm negroes

Miss Lizzie Gale recited Sam Pat

IRENE confusion of lovers when first
touched with the divine passion;
Taken as a whole, the evening was
so pleasantly spent that your repor

such things. They take a fellow, SO

The Baptist church, by unanimous
choice, called Rev. E. T. Robinson to
the pastorate of the church here. He
has passed his allotted three score
and ten; but his faculties are undim-
ed by time and his great culture COM

votion warrants the expectation that
the church has made a wise selec-

fifteen years in an nglish prison
upon conviction of the murder of her
husband and who is now reported to
be engaged to marry a Chicago lee
ture bureau manager is today AZ
year Of age. Dates Of her birth as
given in various biographical works,
are in disagreement, but this date is
apparently authentic.
Mrs. Maybrick is a native Of Ala
bama and the daughter of William G.
Chandler a Mobile Banker. Her
mother was Caroline Elizabeth
daughter of Darius Holbrook, of
New York, close friend and bust
ness associate of Cyrus w. Field.
Florence Chandler enjoyed all the
refining influences which a rich and
indulgent father could bestow. She
was educated in Germany and France
and Travelled extensively. On one Of
the ocean trips she met James May
brick a cotton buyer twenty-six
years her senior whose home was in
Liverpool but who spent several
months each year in Norfolk Va.
They were married in 1880.
Mrs. Maybrick's father died and
her mother married the Baron Won
Roques an Austrian nobleman, from
whom she separated later. The Baron
ess Won Roques visited this country
recently in connection. with litigation
through which lands in Virginia,
West Virginia and Kentucky, valued
at nearly $4,000 were restored to
her and her daughter. Their conten-
ton was that they signed away the
property formerly belonging to Da-
rius Holbrook while laboring under
great mental stress in an English
prison.

BIOGRAPHICAL CALENDAR.

marriage and hey were accounted a
devoted coupls, although Mrs. May
brick was much worried over her hus-
bands appetite for drugs. They
moved to LIVERPOOL in 1882, occupy
ing a fine residence called Battle
crease, in the suburbs. A boy was
born in 1882 and girl four years
later.
Maybrick suffered from an ailment
for which he experimental with va
rious drugs, finally hitting on arsenic
as the best fitting his case. Maybrick
was taken i'll late in April, 1889, and
his wife nursed him day and night.
He died on May IL, and the two doc
tors who had been in attendance gave
gastroentertis as the cause of death.
when his wife learned Of his death
she fell in a swoon which lasted for
forty-eight hours. Micheal and Edwin
Maybrick the dead mans brothers
informed the police they had been
told by servants in the household that
Mrs. Maybrick poisoned their brother.
A post-mortem examination revealed
arsenic.
Mrs. Maybrick's trial was described
as one Of the most sensational in the
annals Of English courts. She was
condemned to death. This sentence
was committed to life imprisonment
in Aylesbury prison. Her conviction
aroused great indignation on both
sides of the Atlantic. Members of the
bar present at the trial added their
names to petition bearing 100000
signatures which begged the Crown
for pardon.
Mrs. Maybrick served nearly fifteen
years before she was released on
ticket of leave She arrived in
New York on Aug. 20, 1904, six months
after her liberia zion. Since that time
she has lectdred throughout the

A Cut Glass Staircase.

A recent dispatch from London states
that the diplomatic understanding be-
tween Turkey and Great Britain has re-
suited in an immense number of COM
mercial orders reaching London firms
from the notabilities of Constantinople.
Never before have English goods and
Englishmen been so popular in Turkey,
and members of the Young Turk party
in London are acting as agents in the
expectation of all sorts of leather, silver
and woolen goods.
The Sultan himself has led the move
ment. Abdul Hamid still clings to his
old ideas of gorgeous Oriental luxury,
and he has ordered a complete staircase
of cut glass for his palace. 1t will be
the most dazzling staircase ever seen
outside of fairy story. The "treads"
of the stairs are to be beveled and cut
with Turkish inscriptions. The stair
case will be 25 feet wide, and colored
electric lights will illuminate it on state
occasions. Circular.

are herein printed for their guild
ance.
First, before competing, or even
entering upon the course of train
ing necessary to compete in this
event safely, each athlete is ad-
vised to have his heart examined.
Second, not only should the athlete
have his arms and body covered in
his practice, but he should likewise
wear a loose fitting pair of long
woolen trousers, and he should have
his feet we'll protected, by strong
soles, from the pebbles and hard
road, and thus avoid bruises.
While the man running feels
warm, his arms and shoulders being
exposed to the cold air it is very
easy for him to contract rheuma-
tism and colds, which will result
later in life in much pain and dis
comfort.
The training should be started
with long walks at rapid gait with
frequent jogs, and the distance of
the jog should be gradually in
creased until by the Is of May every
contestant can safely jog at about
two-thirds his best speed the full
course of five miles without great
inconvenience. He should be es-
pecially sure to cover up warmly af-
ter his work, and after his heart
and lungs have resumed their nor
NAL rhythm, and his temperature
has become normal, to be rubbed
down in a warm room, free from
draughts, after which he should rest
in bed warmly covered up for at
least an hour.
Since the race is to be in the af-
ternoon, the best time to train for
this race is at that hour.
Tobacco and liquor should be
avoided, as no man can get in his
best condition and partake of these
things; especially is this true of the
young athlete who has not formed
the habit of depending upon these
stimulants.
