Prehistoric Fashion.

At this moment l am anxious to
draw attention to the painted group
of ten human figures lately discovered
on q rock shelter at Cogul, near Le-
rida, in Catalonia. These figures are
those of young women dressed in
short skirts and curious sleeves, the
hair done up in conical mass rising
from the sides to the top of the head
Each figure is about seven inches
high. The great interest about these
drawings is that they are probably
tens of thousands of years old, and
present to us the young women of
the reindeer epoch. No other such
painting of the women of this period
is known, and the astonishing thing
is that, though these are by no means
fine specimens of prehistoric art, yet
there is a definitely modern look
about the drawing which makes one
think at first that the picture is SOME

of a number of shirt-skirted school
girls at play.-Sir Ray Lancaster, in

The "sundowner" is peculiar to the

Poets may sing them in their sweet.
brightest colors, and our memories
may deceive us regarding the days of
long ago, when we were boys on the
farm or in the village, but sober re-
Election, with the glamor omitted says
the Washington Star, leads to the be-
lief that more myths date back only
a score or so of years than stretch to
the days when the world was in its
infancy. How many of us of mature
years had the comforts, much less
the conveniences, of modern life? The
great majority grew up without street
car service, without gas or electric
light, without steam radiators in our
rooms, without the telephone, and
without an abundant water supply for
the kitchen and bath.
The old swimming hole sounds ro-
mantle, and there were many days Of
bliss. But the boy OF to-day has so
many other sources Of pleasure and
delight that he would scorn the swim
ming hole. 1t Is by contrast that
pleasures are derived. The lad of 40
years ago was forced to get up at day
break, go out into dew-laden pasture
and drive In the horses and cows; he
had to carry in wood and in some
cases start the kitchen fire, and some
OF us were required to do part of the
milking.
Whom we were fortunate enough to
find nice red apple after the holidays
1t was a treat indeed; when a half
dozen oranges were brought from the
grocer's, it meant delight that was
not forgotten for some days. Instead
of going to see the best actors and
actresses of the age, the lad of our
memory was supremely happy at the
thought Of going to see the circus once
year. 1t was an anticipation that
surpasses anything within the range
of possibilities to-day.
What were at one time comforts al
most beyond belief have now become
necessities, while our conveniences
have multiplied many fold and the lux
uries are steadily growing in number.
Thanksgiving is an ideal time of year
to look about and find something to
be grateful for. A contemplation of
conditions then and now is not amiss.

OF retrospection. Would you volun-
tarily live over those days? Would

anonymous giver, has announced that
prize of 100000 has been set aside,
TO be awarded to the first person any

OF cure, the only real condition being
that the new cure must have been in
constant use at least FIVE years. and
that the promoter of the cure con-
vince the investigating board of the
merits OF his discovery.
large number of physicians have
been working for years to perfect vac
cine, or anti-toxin for tuberculosis, or
to find some agent, such as tuberculin.
which will assist in the cure of the dis.
ease. Thus far, the experiments have
not furnished product which will
either absolutely cure or prevent con-
sumption, or render the patient i'm
mune against the disease. Many OF
these serums have proved effective in
increasing the resistance of the pa
tient and thus helping in the cure, but

ATTEMPTED TO seize
The JAILER'S WEAPON
Man Had Consumed Large Quantity
of Dope and Was Behaving in Ex-
traordinary Manner-Woman Ar
rested for Selling Dope

Will Pruitt, negro, is in the coun-
ty jail as the result of his extraordi-
nary behavior, caused by the con-
sumption of large amount of cocaine
which he had procured by the assist
ance of a negro woman by the name of
Annie Wilson.
Pruitt was first noticed by some
small boys Thursday night, who, on
account of the peculiar antics of the
negro, believed him to be insane and
began to chase him on the streets.
After they had gone nearer to the
man they noticed that something out
of the ordinary was the matter with
him, so they notified the police. He
was arrested by Police Officer Will
liams and turned over to the county
authorities.
The negro had eaten or snuffed
such a large quantity of the drug that
he was completely under its influence
and had to be dragged up the steps
of the county jail. He was in bad
humor, and while Jailer Giles was
working the combination of the prison
cell door, the man attempted to
snatch revolver from holster al
the side of the officer.
After Pruitt had been forced to en-
ter the door of the cell, it was neces
sary for someone to hold him while
the door was being locked He ap
peared to be absolutely irresponsible
and unconscious of what he was do
ing. After the effects of the drug hat
worn off the man was calm and peace
able, and has shown no further Sign
of a bad temper since, according t,
Jailer Giles.
Annie Wilson, the negro womal
from whom Pruitt claimed to hav'
procured the drug, was arrested an,
is now in the county Jail 1t is proba
BILE that she will be tried this after
moon.
The woman has confessed to hay
ing gotten the cocaine for Pruitt, bu
claims that she bought it from some
one else. The name of the party fror
whom she claims to have purchase
the dope" has been given to the off
GERS and it is expected that an arres
will be made today.

RL0ODHOUNDS FAILED

White Man Arrested on Suspicion and
Brought to County Jail at Hatties-
burg-Man Arrested Claims to Know
Nothing of Robbery.

Police Officer Willis Moore went to
Petal this morning with his blood
hounds, in answer to request made
by citizens there and on information
that a burglary had been committed.
On arriving at Petal Mr.. Moore learn
ed that sthe Carley Mercantile es-
tablishment had been broken into and
robbed of large quantity of valuable
merchandise.
On account of the heavy rain which
fell after the robbery was committed,
it was impossible for the dogs to
strike a trail, and after several fruit
less efforts the attempt to chase the
robbers was abandoned.
In the course of their search around
the premises of the house which had
been robbed, one of the searching par
ty entered an old shop and discovered
there a white man, bare-footed and
bareheaded -Epon--beiHg
the man stated that someone had
stolen his shoes and that he had re-
mained in the shop on that account
He was arrested on suspicion and
brought to Hattiesburg. The man
claims to know nothing of the robbery
Officer Moore brought back with
him a piece of leather strap which the
thieves had left upon the ground
where they had bundled up their plum
der before leaving the town. He
thinks perhaps this strap of leather
may be the means of furnishing a clue
as to the identity of the guilty par
ties.
The value of the articles stolen is
e5timated at about 500, consisting o
dry goods, clothing, shoes and pro
visions.
