A Beauty Hint.

The hands Of growing girls are often
red and clumsy. and girls who are be-
ginning to take thought of their ap-
pearance are sometimes in despair
about them. not being aware that they
grow whittier and whittier every year.
The ideal maud is white. certainly. but
not dead white. 1t should have a
touch Of healthy flesh tints. The tips
Of the fingers and the portions that
surround the palm should be tinged
with pink. The fingers should taper
toward the nails. the most approved
shape for which is the "filbert." so
called from its resemblance to the oval
form Of the nut Of that name and the
similarity of the direction OF the lines
Of the nails to those on the wood OF

which was once famed as the piece
de resistance in the fruit portion of
a dinner or breakfast table. The
western apple has been working on
ratchet scale of prices-turning al
ways towards the higher market
value, never towards the lower How
ever, fasteners at last admit the su-
perior quality of the Pacific north
west apple. The price they command
in the market, sustained year by
year, shows that these jenizens Of
the east are willing to pay their
money to prove that the Oregon,
Washington or Idaho apples are
worth what they cost.

Make Your Hatpins.

For your dressy hat why not make
your own hatplns Of lace? An old
form can be covered with crocheted
medallion or lace flower The stitches
must necessarily be close in order to
cover the foundation. but when an
Irish lace daisy curls its petals over a
hatpin you will pierce your crown with
joy in the knowledge of having some
thing homemade, but new.

WAS BILBo BOUGHT.

An now comes one Senator Bilbo, with
bedraggled toga, who charges that as
self constituted detective-a pee-wee Sher-
lock Holmes-during the late senatorial
contest, he stalked as a candidate for a
bride, seeking liberal bidder. Now we
venture the assertion that there never was
a close political or partisan fight in which
marketable unit could not find buyer
at fair valuation, but in this case all
the common sense differences are against
the Bilbo dicker
We have no doubt i'm the world that
during the excitement of that great contest
there were many partisan, of each can
didate, as there always will be, every
where on such occasions who would
have bought votes if rendered, as Bilbo
says his was, and if they believed the
creature would stay bought, and withdraw
from the market, but we do not believe
single deal was made.
This man says he was to have had
$1,000, and received $3.50 short-changed
$500 Now, why this silence until long
after the election? If the story holds as
to the BRIDE it falls as to the assumed
purpose, and if Vardaman believes it, he
must despise the So called adherant who
could have hurled bomb into the arena
that would have COMPOUNDED his election.
To substantiate his wild and improbable
story, BiIpo calls as his witness, highly
respected minister, but this is what the
preacher said:
81 was in Jackson on business for some
days in January, and for several days
roomed with Senator Bilbo. did not go
to Jackson at his request, and he never
asked me to witness any transaction of
whatsoever nature.
Zone night he showed me roll of
bills, something less than 5000 | think,
and told me they were trying to bride
him for his vote. He id not mention
any names and did not ask me to keep
the money for him, nor did he offer
it to me. | did not ask hmi any ques-
tons. | do not even know Mr.. Dulaney.
l know nothing of this case, and do not
want my name used in connection with it"
If Bilbo found a buyer, why did he
not carry out his deeply laid scheme
of exposure, the ostensible object of the
deal?
On the ether hand, if he sold with
intent to stay sold, was he waiting until
the last moment for the other $3.50, with
intent to deliver the goods?
In any view of the case humbug is ornni-
present. No one is hit but Bilbo-let him
fry in his own fat-Aberdeen Examiner.

MRS. NEIL TELLS STORY.
Denies Plot to Exchange Cash at
Resort.

Vicksburg, Miss, April 2.-According
to her statement, Mrs. c. N. Neil, whose
name has figured in the Jackson dispatches
concerning the alleged senatorial bribery
charges, has been in Vicksburg since
last Saturday, and intends to remain here
until Monday, when she says she will re-
turn to Jackson to answker to subpoena
to appear before the senate, which she says
she understands is out for her.
81 have not been here under cover, but
have walked the STREETS of Vicksburg daily
and have not cared whether my identity
was known or not" she said, at an East
China street private boarding house to-
night.
When asked if she would make a COM
plete statement concerning her connec-
ton with the jackson scandal, Mrs. Neil
cvaded the direct question.
She is middle-aged woman, neatly
dressed, intelligent looking and comes
up to her looks in this regard in her man
ner and conversation.
Asked what she thought of Bilbo's state
ment, as published in newspaper dis
patches from Jackson, as follows: "When
Bilbo was asked if DR.. Culpepper and
Mrs. Neil were to accompany him to an
alleged immoral house, he replied that
Mrs Neil was to go with him, but he
did not intend to take the minister
along"
think that he is losing his mind" said
Mrs. Neil. 81 do not believe he made
the statement. In fact, have been in
formed by telephone from Jackson to-
day what is going on"
Mrs. Neil stated that she would return
to Jackson and call upon Mr.. Bilbo for
an explanation.
Mrs. Neil stated that she was, as
girl, Miss C. G. Johnston, of Arlington,
Va. She is now a widow, and before
going to Jackson, December "a, she lived
in Chattanooga, Tenn, where she was en-
gagged in the real estate business. Later
she was engaged in what was called the
Standard Home Company of Birmingham,
lending money on property. She admitted
that she was the entire concern, correct
ing former statement and saying she
L. Nail cko 4aI
that after reaching Jackson she found
prospects that had been painted to her
as good in Mississippi were anything
but encouraging for her money lending
proposition, so she was willing to be-
come interested in the political game.
This, she says, she played until she be-
came disguised, but she refused to 60
into details She first stated that she
would tell the full story, giving dates
and names Of prominent people, which she
said would fill four or five newspaper
columns, but afterwards said that for
fear she might violate her oath, given
twice before the Kinds county grandjury,
she would prefere to wait until she is
questioned in the senate; then she would
feel at liberty to talk ferrly.
In explaining her presence in Vicksburg,
Mrs. Neil said that recently she took
the agency of a female medicine: which
she was selling. She visited Clinton and
Bolton after leaving Jackson and has
been here since Saturday.
Mrs. Neil says she is thirty-five years
old, is well proportioned, with high
forehead and brown eyes. She might be
described as business woman of the
world, to all appearances, and in manner
and address.

to such position should be credit
to any administration. AS Speaker of the

ing the memorable Code session of 1906,
Mr.. Thomas won his spurs as a safe

gratifying his ambition to attain the CUB

race with clean, wholesome record, and
has since applied himself strictly to his

the man of money and his friends. Could
it be possible that a bank president
just for the cutting off of the wheels
of buggy and while just violating the
speed ordinance should be sentenced to
the workhouse? The judge remained
firm. The pardon board has now been
solicited, but up to the time this article
was written the bank president was
still in the workhouse. The prosecu-
ton was just, the sentence was right,
and will tend to stop many others from
indulging in bursts of speed contrary
to law. If the pardon board grants
him a pardon they should be retired al
the first opportunity from the Offices
which make them members of tbs
board. A fine of few dollars has nc
terrors for rich man, but the disgrace
of being confined with 3 lot of common
criminals in the city workhouse will
make many sit up and take notice ane
also take off their hats to the spees
ordidance.
