MississippPs Legislature and Varda

Mississippi's Legislature and Varda-
man.
If there is any truth in CampbelPs
line that coming events cast their
shadows before" then what the Mis-
sissippi legislature has ordered to be
done in the way of Investigating the
stewardship of former Governor
James K Vardaman, of that state,
with regard to the moneys entrusted
to him for disbursements for various
purposes is of much significance. 1t
is a long lane, as the old adage runs,
that has no turning, and there is
much truth in this old saw.
1t is apparent from the drift OF
things in Mississippi that Mr.. Varda-
mans chickens are at last coming
home to roost. OF course he cannot
reasonably object to this, for the
reason he is cognizant OF the fact
that he must reap as ne has sown.
Having sown hate, prejudice, NAL
content and suspicion, it now seems
that he stands facing the harvest
time. When he proclaimed his in
tention of making two years hence
another attempt to reach the United
States Senate and represent Missis-
sippi lust anyhow, despite the array
of opposition which defeated him re-
Gently, he set in motion that kind of
opposition which means to have him
out of the running good and sure

when the time comes for electing a
Snnnaccnr To Gen On, Pnarnu

when the time comes for electing a
successor to Senator Pearcy.
The "black flag" of Senator Percy's
political warriors may be seen flap
ping on the the political winds in this
investigation coup which has been
launched against Vardaman. This is
a mastery political move, and it is
hardly to be doubted that it means
something sinister, and irrevocably
so, to Mr.. Vardaman's political fu-
ture. If he should manage to drag
himself and his administration
through that which is in store for him
in the investigation, he will know,
and everybody else will know,
that Mr.. James K. Vardaman has
passed through an investigation, and
if he has not shrunk to be too little
for seat in the United States Sen
ate it will be a surprise to everybody
who thinks he has a line on the stu
alton as forecasted by present signs
and events.
There is before the Ex-Governor Of
Mississippi hard row to weed and,
however he may look at it, he is go
ing to find it that way. 1t is going to
be as hard to hoe as it would have
been for him to have torn from the
Federal Constitution the Fifteenth
Amendment, had he landed in the
Senate. The one-time mighty Varda-
man has, from appearance, entered
the tertiary stage Of political con-
sumptives and will soon pass from
tn scene of his former activities as
political power and there are thou
sands and hundreds of thousands of
people who will gladly say Goodbye
when he makes his exit, that is, when
he is forced to make it.

FRIDAY, MARCH rs. 1910.
EASTER SUNDAY.

Next Sunday the Christian peo-
pie generally throughout the world
will celebrate Easter. We understand
this celebration to be in commemora-
ton of the resurrection of Jesus the
Christ. The festival Of the resur-
rection of Jesus Christ, it is claimed,
derives it's Teutonic name from the
festival of the goddess Ostara, which
the Saxons of old were wont to cele-
brate about the same season the
Christian festival of Easter occurs.
In the ancient church the celebra-
ton of Easter lasted eight days. At
ter the eleventh century, however, it
was limited to three, and in this time
only one day, Sunday, is generally
the time devoted to the celebration.
1t was formerly the favcrite time
for performing the rite of baptism.
The courts of justice were closed, and
aims dispensed to the poor and needy,
who were even Toasted in the churches
"a custom which led to much disor-
der. Slaves also received their free
dom at that season; hence the day
was called the Sunday of JOY" To
the popular sports and dances were
added farcical exhibitions, in which
even the clergy joined in some places,
reciting from the pulpit stories and
legends, with a view to stir the
hearers to laughter. Against this in
decency the reformers Of the sixteenth
century loudly and successfully raised
their voices
The proper time for the celebration
of Easter has occasioned no little
controversy. History cites that in the
second century dispute arose on this
point between the eastern and western
churches. The great mass Of the
eastern Christians celebrated Easter
on the 14th day of the first Jewish
month or moon, considering it to be
equivalent to the Jewish Passover
The western churches celebrated il
on the Sunday after the 14th day
holding that it was the commemora
ton of the resurrection of Jesus. The
council of Nice 1925 A. d. decided
in favor Of the western usage.
This, however, only settled the point
that Easter was to be held, not upon G
certain day of the month or moon, but
on Sunday. The proper Astronomical
cycle for calculating the occurrences
of the Easter moon was not deter
mined by this council. 1t appears
however, that the metonic cycle was
already in use in the west for this
purpose, and it was on this cycle thu

FOLK
OPPOSED TO Fight

San Francisco, May 1S.-whiIe none
of the Alameda coup officials will say
positively they will try to stop the
Jeffries- Johnson fight and neither
Richard nor Gleason admit they have
changed their plans, there is a well
grounded belief In sporting circles
here that the big battle will not be held
In the Emeryville race course. Ad-
mitting that the question of the law
in the case is an open one, it is pointed
out that the tremendous amount of
money already involved In the fight
will deter the promoters from taking
any chances of even attempted inter-
ference
Gleason and Richard and others in
terested, have been in conference but

PANIC OUTSIDE
CIRCUS tent
MISTAKEN CRY OF "THE LIONS
LOOSE" STARTS MAD STAN.
PEDE AT NEWARK, N. j.

New York, May 1S.-A mistaken
cry of THE lions loose" threw a
circus crowd of women and children
into frenzy of panic at Newark, N.
j., this afternoon and in the pell-
nell rush seven children were badly
crushed and cut, one man fell in a
fit, woman had her shoulder dis
located and many other persons suf-
fered minor injuries. C.ne little girl
had her jaw broken.
The panic occurred outside of the
circus tent during the parade. Be-
cause of the size of the circus. one
of the largest in the country. the
streets were packed with sightseers.
Suddenly the band struck up. Al
mounted policeman's horse took
fright and bolted straight for the
thick of the crowd. Before he could
get It under control, somebody shout
ed, "a lions loose" and the crowd
went mad with fright.
Adults and children rushed for the
nearest point of safety, upsetting baby
carriages and trampling on the babies
Some jumped front yard fences and
others bolted for open &oors. A nearby
grocer's shop was wrecked. The win
dows We're broken, the counters over
turned and the floors covered with
spoiled goods.
Even after the panic subsidized. when
1T was proven to be baseless, MANY in
the crowd were so shaken that they
refused to enter the circus.

FROM The CAMPS
OF THE Fighters

Ben Lomond, May 1S.--A fast dash to
Boulder Green and return, followed by
the building Of rustic fence around
his cottage, kept Jeffries busy yester-
day morning. He did not go near the
gymnasium.
Jeffries was up early for a glimpse
of the morning papers with their ac-
counts of the settlement of the referee
question.
He made no comment, however, while
out on the road, with the big fellow,
Joe Choynski suffered severe shaking
up when he was thrown by Jeffries'
little fox terrier which ran between his
feet while he was sprinting with his
charge. Joe is now nursing a LAGER
ated hand and huge bump on his
head.
