ANOTHER SPECIAL PRIZE
ROmbaCh Bros viii Give Manicure and Toilet Set This
Week.-Mrs. Driver Again Leads Miss Hartman Second
End of Big Contest Draws Near

With characteristic enterprise,
Rombach Bios. have selected a
splendid combination manicure
and toilet set from their exten-
sive stock to be given as a spe-
cial prize in the contest this
week.
The lady who secures the
largest number of subscription
votes during the week ending at
4 p. m. next Saturday will be
given this special prize. 1t is an
attractive and servicable present
and the contestant who wins it
will have occasion to long re-
member the generosity of the
reliable and busy jewelry firm of
Rombach Bros.
Interest in the big diamond
contest has now reached the
acute stage. Comparatively few
days remain in which to secure
the votes required to win the
elegant prizes, and the young
ladies and their many interested
friends are making the most of
the time available.
Miss Driver. who was the first
contestant to forge to the front
in the campaign, and who has
been busy ever since, is once
more in the lead. She is receiv-
ing the support of a large circle
of friends, including the men,
bers of the Woodmen lodge.
Miss Driver will give the 500 in
gold to the Woodmen, if she wins
the diamond ring, and the Wood
men evidently intend to see that
she wins it.
Miss Lonnie Hartman, who
will favor the Columbus Masons,
if successful in the contest, IS
making a splendid race. and is
receiving liberal support from
friends at Crawford and Boone
vile and among the members Of
the fraternity favored.
The candidate who is causing
the other young ladies no little
uneasiness is Miss Fannie Dis
mukes, the candidate of the Co
lumbus Elks, who is now third
in the race and getting votes
right along. The Elks enjoy the
of getting everything
they go after, and Miss Dis
mukes is admittedly a dangerous
candidate, in the opinion of the
other workers.
But it is "anybody's race" af-
ter all, for the ladies who have

SENATOR PERCY
WILLING To SUBMIT
VARDAMAN MEN SURPRISED
RESOLUTIONS PROVIDING A SPECIAL
ELECTION IN NOVEMBER INTRO
DUCED BY JOHNSON IN
THE JOINT SESSION

Jackson, April 15.-In an adj
dress before a joint session of
the two houses of the legislature,
within tWenty-four hours of the
period for final adjournment,
United States Senator Leroy
Percy gave a terrific arraign-
ment of the persons VINO have
charged or insinuated that his
election to the seat of McLaurin
was accomplished by fraud and
corruption.
Hurting defiance at his critics.
Senator Percy declared that he
would rather resign than hold a
commission that, in the opinion
of the members of the legisla-
ture, he had obtained by fraud
and corruption.
Taking the Vardaman support
ers completely by surprise,
Mr.. Johnson of Coahoma. a
strong supporter of Senator Per-
cy. introduced a resolution offer
ing to subject the validity of
Senator Percy's election to a
special state primary to be held
between the 1st of November
and the 1st of December of the
present wear.

lege chapel on Wednesday morn
ing. Mrs. Lamkin, the state
president, was in the chair.
This session was held especially
to hear the reports from the
standing committees. The fol-
lowing reports were given by the
chairman of the several commit
tees:
Report of music committee.
Report of art committe. This
report of the art committee was
given by Mrs. Seidenstricker of
West Point. The policy outlined
was very good indeed. The
committee recommended a study
for the greater knowledge and
appreciation of art; putting art
into the homes and public
schools; and working up a state
exhibit. 1t suggested that jack
son be made the art center of the
state; and that a travelling art
exhibit be sent to the different
towns.
Report of the civic committee.
This report showed that the
movement for more beautiful
and sanitary towns was per-
vading the whole state.
Report of home economics
committee.
Report of of health committee.
Report of reciprocity commit
tee.
All these reports which were
Immediately accepted by the
house, showed that the commit
tees had done most excellent
work.
Next came the reports from
the clubs which were left over
from the previous sessions. The
following reported good work
done:
Alderman club, Iuka club,
