The portrait of her by Winterhalter,
made just after she was married,
though presenting her in the crinoline
of the time, shows the elegantly dress
ed woman even to the critical eye Of
today. for the keynote of her taste is
simplicity, and that is the one thing
that never grows old fashioned
Though in the sixties, the queen has
still a perfect figure, which is always
dressed in long lines to accentuate
its height, whether in her coronation
robes or in a simple tailored waist and
skirt. The queen disdains furbelows
of any kind, and many another queen.

PeliOn of frills, has wondered why
she could not achieve the distinction
Of the British queens simple attire.
Of late years the queen has dressed
almost entirely in mauves, violets and
grays or black and white, but her ia
yOrite colOrs are pale pink and blue,
and these are always introduced in
her apartments wherever she may be
staying.
The accompanying cut shows one
OF her fayorite sitting rooms done
in white and pale pearly gray silk
The rug and draperies introduce the
pink and blue, and, as in all apart

empire, the screens and pillows in
brocades showing pink and blue on q
gray foundation. The whole shows

better, at this stage of the litigation for all concerned to wait upon the judgment of the highest court of the state.
 It Is not necessary now to consider what may be the duty of the court to act on it's own, independent judgment, if com plainant be unnecessarily delayed in get ting a decision from the highest court of the state. The defendants have avowed in open court their intention to aid in bring ing to a spedy decision in the supreme court of Alabama, some one of the several applications for mandamus brought by other parties to obtain licenses in the counties of Mobile, Dallas and Montgom- cry. This court cannot doubt that that high court, will aid in bringing to final conclusion a question which for the pulp lie good should be speedily set at rest. Counsel for respondents may draw an or der refusing complainants motion for preliminary injunction with leave to it at some later date as 1t may be advised in view of the posture of the litigation con- cerning this matter in the state courts, to renew it's motion hereafter.

Bessemer, January 13.-(Special.) 1.-Two eases have been handed down by the su- preme court within the past two days that are of more than ordinary impor- tance and interest to Bessemer. The first was case in which the board of educa- tion of Bessemer was the defendant the style of the case being T. A. Moore MS. R. w. Waldrop ct als. Nearly a year ago the city council having adopted the municipal code proceeded to elect a new board of education, which took its seat and assumed the duties. among oth- CT things adopting plans for new high school building, letting contracts etc. Some months later quo warranto pro- peedings were instituted and the case came up for hearing in the Bessemer city court, the court holding that the new board was the legal body. Petitioners then carried the case to the supreme court, and Justice Denson handed down the decision reversing and remanding the case, and it is stated that from the de- cison the new board is busted and the old board placed in charge of the affairs of the schools The justice held that the time of electing new boards was in April, 1909, and not in April, 19OS as was done by the council.
 The regular meeting of the board of eduoation was set for last night. but the body did not hold a meeting after read ing the opinion of the court. This even ing there was joint meeting of the two boards The board as constituted before the election last year, was pr. T. F. Rob- inson, pr. J. H. Downing, I. A. Lewis c. F. Goodwin, W. l.. Rush and Dr. E. w. McNeil and Dr. R. P. McTyeire The new board holding to this time is Dr. J. H. Downing, pr. R. w. Waldrop. Dr R. P McTyere, W. l.. Rush and w. H. Lewis. Considerable interest is manifested in the outcome of the twist In the affairs.
 The other case was that of the State of Alabama vs Lon Tyler, convicted on the alleged charge of carrying a weapon with barrel less than "A inches in length. Tyler was an officer in Jonesboro and had made an arrest and in the trouble which resulted a warrant was sworn out against him for carrying concealed pis- the lower court was affirmed and the constitutionality of the John law estab- ilished by the decision.
