Jackson, Miss, March THE
legislature will adjourn on March
Goth. but it won't get through it's work
by that time said Col. H. M. Street,
the veteran speaker of the house, this
morning.
There is more business now pend
ing on the calendars than | have ever
seen at legislative session." contin-
ued Col. Street. I'VE won't be able
to get through with it, therefore, we
will simply have to quit.
Many of the measures pending are
going to provoke long debates, and
this will necessarily retard the dis
patch of business. am going to put
the boys to work in earnest in the
lower house this week, however. and
try to get rid of as many bills as
possible. We will doubtless hold two
daily sessions. and three if necessary
All of the committees are well up
with their work, very few new bills
will be introduced from now on, and
there is no reason why we should not
get right down to hard labor

Had Threatened Suicide.

DR.. Lazard had told him that he had
once threatened to kill himself by TAX
ing morphine, but had changed his
mind; he had also shown some white
powder with which the young physi
clan said he intended to end his troub
les, but DR.. Card said he had not given
the matter much attention, and that
he had done all in his power to make
the respondent man laugh his trouble
away. He said the white powder was
cyanide of potash.
In a pocket of a coat which hung
in dresser closet in the room of the
dead man was found an empty vial
of chromium sulphate. DR.. Carl said
that this kind of medicine was poison
if taken in quantity, but that the
young man had never been given more
than a dose at one time. He could not
account for the presence of the vial.
There was no indication of a drug on
the body, nor any other unusual signs.
The back was purple and red, an in.
dication of sudden death, in which
case the pendant parts are colored
thus The body was slightly warm on
the back, though it was stiff.
The body will be shipped to New
Orleans on the 3;15 Louisville and

The stage setting seems to have
been prepared with unusual refine

Had a Strenuous Trip.

1t was a weary looking bunch oil

three-day iunketing trip to the state
institutions at Meridian, Starkville
Columbus and oxford was evidently a
strenuous one, and many of the solons
plainly showed the effects of the loss
OF sleep, even though a goodly mum.
br had spent Sunday in bed.
The opinion generally expressed by
members. however, is that the trip
was beneficial; that it gave them a
better understanding of the needs of
the states educational institutions,
and they will be able to vote more
intelligently on the pending appro-
priation bills, all of which are in I'M
finished shape.
1t is expected that joint confer
ence committees will be necessary for
the final disposal of the Industrial
Institute & College, A. & M. College
and State University budget. and
much depends on the personnel of
these committees. The spirit that
mas heretofore prevailed in the lower
house concerning these institutions
has been decidedly parsimonious, and
the educational leaders sincerely hope
that the recent trip will cause more
liberalty to be shown.

The only heater known that combines simply
and perfectly the three vitaI features that make
for the most successful and economical out
door heating.
NOTICE THIS: simple and positive reg
ulation of the fire by simply drawing the cover.
This gives flow of heat just according to the
temperature requirements of the night and the
consumption of oil just in proportion to the
amount of fire used This is the only sensible
and economical principle and makes it a small
consumer of oil. 1t couldn't be otherwise.
Secondly. A reservoir of oil not under fire
which admits of all night burn with posi-
lively no attention required after lighting. This
feature makes a uniform fire throughout the
period of burning and saves labor as no others
Thirdly 1t gives just the proper combustion
for most successful outdoor heating Rochester
lamps and oil stoves are intended for indoor
heating and orchard heaters have to work un-
der very different conditions. Look into this
thoroughly and don't be deceived.
1t is the simplest in construction, the easiest
to operate and positively the most effective
heater known and these features have all been
proven and tried thoroughly in this valley last
Spring, when more fruit was saved from the
frost per heater than any other devices used
We can show you.

TELEPHONE COURTESlEs

Three fatcors are mainly re. sponsible for the discourtesies only too common in telephone usage and the lack of considera, tion shown to telephone opera tors, on whom a great part of the discourtesies are practiced.
 First, the lack of personal ele- ment, because, not being face to face, the sense of a human per son Ii y at the other end is lost. Second, although nearly every one uses the telephone nova days, there are many people who do not know how to use it prop erly; and together with these there are many more who are ab solutely ignorant of the methods of operating and who are very willing to charge every fancied or real trouble to the negligence of the operator. Third, the ina bility to ascertain by seeing, what is actually going on at the other end of the line when, there Is a wait of few moments, arouses an impatience which is a potent cause for great deal of telephone discourtesy.
 It seems strange that a man will browbeat telephone opera tor because number is busy or the party is slow in answering. The same man would be most polite to this girl if she were his stenographer and no matter what mistakes she made, he would never think of speaking to her as he does to the operator. It is the more to be regretted be- cause in most cases the opera tor is not at all to blame, and therefore it is good for the pub. lie to know and understand the telephone problems and meth odS. But that is no excuse for diScourteSy, as a little reason ableneSS, a little forbearance, and a realization that the person at the other end feels the slap as keenly as if the angry words had been said face to face, instead of to a shining metal instrument, will bring about kinder, more polite and altogether more sue cessful telephone dealings.
 Discourtesy may be shown in actions, even though the other end" cannot see our actions. The woman who keeps the telephone bell ringing for five minutes and more at a stretch before she will feign to answer, shows as much discourteSy as if she kept her caller waiting on the door step. The man who impatiently sends an office boy to answer the tele- phone bell and then when the caller is announced goes on with his affairs until he gets good and ready to answer, is grossly dis courteous. He might at least, if his affairs are very pressing in struct his boy to tell the caller to call again a little later. Still more diScourteous is the man who or. ders an employee to get some one on the telephone for him and then when the desired party is secured, keeps him waiting many minutes. Both the latter instances are a fruitful source of the busy report.

On the Lonesome 2, Road

His mother watched him from the window, her face full of pride and love, her heart full of tenderness and perfect understanding of what had brought the tinge of sadness to his brown eyes.
