From Our Exchanges.

The good old town of Mokelumne
Hill that was once the rendezvous of
joaquin Muretta and his band, and
which according to tradition, is said
to contain in and around IL numer-
GUS hiding places of their ill-gotten
plunder, was thoroughly gone over
during the last two weeks by the
seekers after hidden treasure. Some
two weeks ago, a lady fortune teller,
mind reader, trance medium, palmist
and locator of hidden treasure struck
the town. She gave public lecture
in the church, at which she did n
little mind reading, telling people
what they already knew as we'll as
some things they didn't know. She
stayed about ten days during which
time she bettered herself financially
to the tune of a couple of hundred
dollars and then she went away leav-
ing some of the good citizens with
blistered hands and perspiring brows
still delving in out of the way places
for the hidden treasure that as yet has
failed to materalize. You all know

MENAcEs TO THE SOUTH.


 since the days of Reconstruction" remarks the Kansas City Journal, the south has been continually in a state of sociological and economic viyisec ton.
 Almost invariably every budding plogist of one kind or another has broken out of college and struck the trail to the south to study this or that condition.
 The good and patient people of the south have been exposed as sort of anthlopological clinic for the high brows to poke. rasp and irritate gen orally. 1
 Not long ago the scientists emerg- ed from the south bearing ltriuwphant- is the unloyely twins, pellagra and the hook worm
 There is much truth in this state ment and 1t serves to emphasize the the fact that the people of the south for nHoxe than century managed to increase in number and to get along quite happily in spite of their ignor- ance of such menaces as pellagra and the nook worm, which the scientists have suddenly discovered and are frothing nightly in the magazines.
 A few days ago an international convention was held in Columbia. s. C.. to study pellagra. Something like ton Of written stuff was read to tho solemn assemblage by learned men, but little information about pellagra was furnished the anxious public.
 Now the bnegolent MT. Rockefeller has given sl,ooO0o0 to fight the grue- some hook worm, provided sowe bald headed scientist can locate the thing and destroy it with a dose of thymol and epson salts.
 A recent census bulletin on the hook worm fails to justify the fright it has caused or the generosity pf Mir. Rock efeiler. becaanse it shows that even at Afi tii6 utdtus AfOin Hllttiid WeIt caused by the hook worm which is not the case---it is a harmless sort of disease.
 The bulletin gives figures showing that in a given period there were ,li5s deaths from anemia in the whole country. and in the same period there we're 33,465 persons killed by cancer. G1.261 by pneumonia, 43,SS3 by Bfight's disease, 32.467 by apoplexy and 7S.2ss by tuberculosis; hence the dreaded look worm does not appear to be much more dealy than the collie or the nettle rash.
 An investigation of the disease call. cd pellagra, which, we are told, is 'ravaging the south" has disclosed She fact that it Is responsible for not more than twenty-three deaths, but as the total number of cases is not given by the census bulletin the death ratio cannot be estimated. but it is probably as great as the death rate from in- growing toenails.
 The learned scientists say that pei lagra Is caused by eating wusty corn. yet for many years the only bread eaten by the pioneers who settled the south, the southwest and the west was made of corn meal. which was Of

More FuILneSS in Skirts.

It is rather gratifying to see that new
skirts turned out for late winter wear
have quite good deal more fulIness than
the extreme skirts OF the autumn.
Even a plat or two shows on some OF
the tweed and cheviot skirts. These are
put in at side cores and fare below the
knees. The back also has a double box
plat, inverted and stitched to knees.
The short skirt which came In with the
first styles OF the winter. was too tight to
De comfortable. Il gave the effect OF a
pair Of peg-tOp trousers. for It sloped in
from knees TO hem IN a decided manner.
The new ones do not have this slope. al
though we may return TO II later in the
season, but just at present it Is being
omitted IN the makeup OF a good-looking
skirt.
Il Is not quite correct to call the adopted
style OF this month full skirt. for It IS
still many inches narrower than anything
We have had for years. Neither does II
definitely fare from the hips There is
just a general loosening up OF the tight
lines. and the effect IS good

Nashville, Tenn, March 1.-The end of
the trial OF Col. D. B. Cooper, r. J.
Cooper, and J. D. Sharp. charged with the
murder Of ex-senator Carmack seems to
be in sight. The general impression is
that the presentation OF the defendants

up Of the testimony in rebuttal by the
State. Then VIII come the argument in
which three attorneys on each side viii

charge to the jury viii be delivered next
Saturday or Monday.
Physician Takes stand.
An exceedingly interesting question was
presented 10 Judge Hart soon after the
convenlng OF court for the morning ses-
sion, and by request Of counsel for the
defendants the jury was excluded and
the facts were laid before the Judge. It
was stated by Judge Anderson that DR..
McPheters Glasgow. a well-known Dhysi-
clan OF this city. had been employed by
the State to perform an autopsy on the
body OF Mr. Carmack. which had been
buried az Columbia. in order that he
direction Of the wounds inflicted by the
bullets from the pistol used by Robin
Cooper might be ascertained.
Information TO this effect had come 10
the attention Of the defense. and sub
poena was issued for Dr.. Glasgow. thus
making him a witness for the defense
alro. but the dortor refused to give coun-
sci for the defendants the information
/ learned unless the State agreed. The at
torneys for the prosecution declined 10
/ assent
L was finally agreed. after Judge Hart
/ had asked for authorities. that Mr.. Glas-
gov might talk 70 the attorneys II they
would pay the expenses Of the autopsy.
/ and the defense finally agreed 10 pay FOR
1 the services, whether the doctor was used
or not.
/ The State then withdrew its objection
/ and the doctor gave the evidence de-
sired. The doctor read from a typewrit-
I ten report on the autopsy. which was
/ performed eight days after the tragedy.
/ The examination developed that two OF
the bullets entered Mr.. Carmack's heart
/ There were three wOunds-ons below the
/ left nipple. one in the left shoulder and
one IN the back OF the neck
Two Bullets Extracted.
| Two OF the bullets were extracted from
the body on the night OF the shooting
and the third was found lying in the
street near Mr.. Csrmack's head.

Taste in Wearing Black.

Many women think that a touch OF
black is effective on any costume. The
idea Is worked 10 death
Many think that It Is quite safe to
wear q black hat with a gown OF any
color; that black scarf can always be
worn: that a bit OF black velvet, OF Jet,
or tulle. gives the necessary French touch
to a costume.
This touch Of black Is easily advocated
but difficult 10 rightly apply. There are
many costumes marred by il. It is not
true that black can be put against any
color or that 1t gives distinction and a
French look when it is added.
An -alI-bIack costume IS easier 10 wear
than q touch Of black on a colored COS
tune. The introduction OF this somber
note on certain costumes and certain
faces gives an almost grotesqUe appear
ance.
It may not be widely known that black
absorbs tints or colors, and that when Il
Is placed against them IL lowers their
tone and becomes dull itself. This is the
reason that white and black so so well
together They resist each other
The old-fashioned method Of trimming
pale-colored muslin sowns with black vel
vet ribbon was hideous Happily Il was
tabooed and put out Of style. Yet there
are women who. when in doubt about
any trimming viii use black velvet as
