Mississippi's Folly Brought Home.

The folly of commonwealth trying
to carry its own insurance was strik-
ingly illustrated last Tuesday when
one wing of the Mississippi Insane Hos
pital was destroyed, involving loss of
$4,000, No insurance was carried on
the building, the legislature having re-
fused at its last session to make an ap-
preparation for this purpose. AS re-
suit the board of trustees Of the hos
pital will be compelled to borrow funds
to replace the structure, paying about 8
per cent interest thereon until the Janu-
ary session of the legislature, the regu-
lar appropriation for support not being
available for this purpose. The hospital
is filled to overnowing with patients,
and it is imperative to replace the
structure at the earliest possible mo-
ment.-Insurance Field.

MISS MATTE PLUM
KETT FOR STATE
LIBRARIAN.

One of the important duties of the
Legislature, after it will have convened
on January ], 1911, will be the appoint
ment of State Librarian, and already
there are number of applicants for
the trust.
Miss Matte Plunkett, who has held
the Office now for three consecutive
terms, will be an applicant for reap
pointment, and the indications in her
favor and for her success are particu-
larly strong. Miss Plunkett is not only
thoroughly conversant with the duties
of her Office and acquainted with every
frequenter and patron, but she is a
woman with particularly wide ac-
quaintance over the State, and if the
matter of the appointment were to go
to popular vote by the people she
would get the nomination without a
doubt. She is a veritable epcyclope-
dia, active and accurate, and her SER
vices to the legislature and public have
become well nigh indispensable. In
order to retain her splendid services
it will behoove every member, who is
not already pledged, to cast his vote for
Miss Plunkett, thus giving to the Office
the best to be had, and in Difference
to the choice and will of the people as
we'll.
Her application will go before the
Legislature well recommended by men
high in office and by prominent factors
in the official life of the State. Her ex-
perience and ability have we'll qualified
her for the position, and the legislators
will owe it to the people, to themselves
and to the Office to vote for her re-
She has attended strictly
to her duties and has not been aligned
with any of the political factions of the
State. In fact, she will be recommended
from all sources-the choice of the peo-
pie and the logical successor to herself.
Tried and not found wanting, she is de-
serving of another term on behalf of the
patrons and the people generally. Her
friends are located all over the State,
and they will urge her appointment at
the hanes of the forthcoming session of
the legislature.

APPOINTMENTS TO BE
MADE.

Already there are candidates galore
for the minor offices in the gift of the
state legislature and by appointment
For clerk of the house it is understood
that L. Pink Smith, of Greenville, who
has held this lucrative place for the past
fifteen or sixteen years, will not apply
again. AS Smith managed Percy's
campaign committee for him, and
through his paper, the Greenville Dem
ocrat, poured hot shot into Vardaman,
and as Vardaman's friends are in the
saddle by large majority, Mr.. Smith
has concluded discretion is the better
part of valor, this time at least. 1t is
understood that Paul Hobbs, editor of
of the Brookhaven Leader, and one of
the staunchest Vardaman men in the
state, and very capable man, will
make the race. There may be others,
but they have not yet announced,
For clerk of the senate, thus far, Fred
Yerger is the only man announced. He
was one of the assistants at the last
session and has had some experince.
Just what his political affiliations are is
not apparent as he was out of the state
most of the time during the campaign.
There number of women after the
position of state librarian, and Miss
Matte Plunkett, who has had the place
for twelve years is also an applicant
j. Nj. Mcdonald, assistant secretary OF
the Mississippi State Fair and one. OF
most popular young men in the state, is
candidate for sergeant-at-a of the
senate. He has been very pronounced
/ Vardaman man and will very likely be
elected. T. H. Maxwell, clerk of the
railroad commission, will probably be
opposed by James Calceran, who i:
now chief clerk and bookkepper to ths
state treasurer
| There is some talk in political circles
that Capt. Frank Burkitt, representa-
tive from Chickasaw county, will be ;
candidate for speaker of the house

The announcement of Mr.. Paul Hobbs,
of Brookhaven, as an applicant for clerk
of the House in the next Legislature
will meet with general appreciation,
and that he will secure the appointment
seems to be a foregone conclusion. Mr..
Hobbs is son of the late Editor Hobbs,
of the Brookhaven Leader, one of the
best citizens of the State, and Major
Vardaman had nc truer and more de-
voted friend. Young Hobbs is efficient

The Wife Of Mississippi's Attorney General Elect

A great deal has been said and writ
ten of the beautiful influence of woman
Eulogistic epigrams have been laid at
the feet of women for their tireless ef-
forts in behalf of those whom they love.
Not only do they work with love as a
supreme factor, but their versatile en-
dowment of all principles that govern
human nature with that subtleness that
knows no understanding, but realizes
, the soothing influences of her guidance
is keenly felt.
In the recent magnificent campaign
of Hon. Ross A. Collins for attorney
general of Mississippi, it is fully con-
ceded by his most intimate friends that
the power behind the throne of his sue
cess is due to the splendid aid given
him by his lovely wife, Alfredo Grant
Collins.
From early morn until darkness how
cred over the city she could be found
with her retinue of co-workers in the
Offices of Collins & Collins.
The daily workings within that Of
fee, with Mrs. Collins at the helm, can
we'll be appreciated by those who un-
derstand campaign work.
Mrs. Collins is well known as one of
Meridian's most brilliant young ma
irons. Nature has given her an over
share of those attractive womanly at
tributes that make all love her who
know her. She is the eldest daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. M. r. Grant, of Meri-
dian, whose beautiful home, "The
Knoll" in Marion Park, is known for
its lavish hospitality.
Acknowledging the fact that Mrs.
Collins has aided much in the election
of her husband to high and very respon-
sible Office, it is but natural to believe
that the future, with this lovely woman
at his side, will do much to crown his
administration with a gistening laurel
wreath during their life at the capital.
Meridian's social circles and club life
will miss Mrs. Collins, but the proud
thought of the honor given to Meridian
and Lauderdale county will be right
royal panacea to the knowledge that
she will live elsewhere.

Not withstanding the beneficial ef

number who cross once or more each
year on business, and to- whom time

For travel, the big ship will eventual
ly supersede the smaller ones. as fast
as they are retired. although the cost
in weight and fuel consumption makes
it unlikely that any substantial low
ering of speed is to be expected.

OPEN EYES OF KANSAS GIRL
Young Lady Finally Awakens 90
What Her Fate Would Have
Been With Stinqy Man.

There was broken In Atchison re-
GENTLY an engagement OF two years
standing between a girl and a stingy
man. It was the first engagement she
had ever had, and consequently the
first she had ever broken, and she
felt that she must follow the custom
that is arbitrary at such a time and
return all the gifts the young man
had made her
Search was made of the house from
garnet to cellar, with the result that q
messenger boy next day carried TO
the stingy man a cook book which
had been given away to advertise q
baking powder, 50 which represented
what he had spent on her for theater
tickets, and a narrow band engage
ment ring, which had cost him moth
ing, for it had belonged to his mother.
She wrapped the articles up, with
tears in her eyes, that also being an
established precedent, but when the
boy had gone and she had neglected
no detail due the sad occasion, even
watching the boy depart through
binding tears, a great light burst up
on her She saw what it would have
meant to marry a man so stingy, and
burst into such a loud hosanna be-
cause of her escape. that she ava
kened the babies three blocks away

everywhere-in public as IN private,
on the elevated cars, in the subway.

used to seeing the manifestation of

but / was a little surprised this
morning-yes, just a Ifttle-when I
saw a lady reading a newspaper as
she rode up on an escalator from
the sidewalk to an elevated railroad
platform
know the restless American en-
ergy which prompts you to the ut
most economy of time, to the utiliza-
ton OF every minute, so that no
chance for gain shall be lost; but IL
seems to me In my duh and stupid
old-world way that there might be
such thing as OVERRIDING this bitter
economy of time, don't you know.
In the case of the lady, reading on
the esca,ator. for instance, was
afraid it might lead to an accident to
her. It is only a short ride on an
escalator, and / was afraid she might
forget and fall at the top. for she
seemed very intent In fact.
couldn't tell whether she was econ
omtzing time or whether she was
reading because she was so inter
ested in what she was reading
But, however. she read and read
intently all the way up, or until she
had got three steps from the top and
then she stepped and looked up, and
then stepped OF briskly and quite
safely
'Tt must take about twenty-five sec
onds for that escalator to carry one
from the ground to the platform and
she had read all but three steps, she
had utilized twenty-five seconds of
the time consumed on the trip and

NEW SCIENCE OF F7E-
Production of Artificial Geld Reoom.
ing important Industry-Ma-
chimes on Big Vessels.

The production Of artificial cold has,
during the last Is years. become quite
an important industry. Freezing ma
ehines" are now among the permanent
requisites of civilized life.
The refrigeration Of perishable ar.
tacles of food for transport by ship
stands first on the long list of COM
nercial applications of the science.
In the cold air freezing machines
now employed on board ships for the
transport OF meat from Australia New
Zealand and America. the meat Is
placed in large chambers, the walls Of
which are double. the interspace be-
Ing hIled with wood charcoal as a
non-condueting material
A Jet Of intensely cold air is deliv
e7ed into the chamber at each stroke
Of the piston Of the expansion cyIin-
der, and the temperature Of the cham
Der is thus kept at or near the freez'
ing point during the whole voyage
Another interesting application of
cooling by means of solutions which
have a very low freezing point has
lately been made in mines. One of
the greatest difficulties which can
occur in the operation of sinking a
shaft is that presented by a stratum
Of sand saturated with water. In
more than one case this difficulty has
been overcome by freezing the sand
and water into firm mass through
which the shaft can then be easily
bored as into solid rock.

Boston Schools Less Democrats.
Mrs. Ella F2agg Young, the able
woman who revised the system Of the
Chicago public cchools during her ons
year as superintendent, and who was
in Boston recently, was asked what
she thought of the public schools Of
the Hub, and, after a pause In which
she seemed to weigh her answer care
fully. she replied: The Chicago
schools are more democratic than
those IN Boston" She said she re-
garaed this as an advantage, but she
would not go into details concerning
the Boston system. She pointed out,
however. that many school systems
were tending to make a great ma
chine out OF the schools, and that thus
the individuality OF the pupils was
lost sight Of 81 believs." said she,
that the minimum salary OF any
school teacher should be 81, 500 year.
and at that salary 1 am confident that

would pay teachers CT cooking that
