colaultt VIII Have an Opponent.

An outcome of the campaign just
closed, and logical sequence to the
results of the balloting, looms up in
an opposition candidate for the gov
ernorship. Governor Colquitt went
into office as a minority nominee, and
his taking the stump in behalf of
was the red rag which
Infatuated many one against him
people who were inclined to overlook
his firm position along the same lines
during the race for the office and as
manifested in his exercise of power
as governor. Thus infamed and be-
lieving that a democratic primary
would show big majority to favor
pro candidate, it is almost certain
that there will develop opposition to
Governor Colquitt's reelection. His
safety lies in the aspirations of pro
candidates, or in the success of his
followers in getting several of them
to run No doubt he could win in
three-cornered race.-Temple Tele-

There is a continuance of broad
yoke effects for the fronts of dresses,
particularly those used for young girls.
These yokes are extremely effective
in net braided with very narrow SOU
tache and make a charming garniture
for any of the established materials.
The sleeves, in nearly every instance,
reflect the decoration of the yoke, and
instead of the customary vest, an APP
plique of Cluny lace, Valenciennes or
embroidery may be used. After all,
Dame Fashion is practical, because
she. more and more, is considering the
convenience of her disciples. The ad-
dition of an applique of detachable
trimming of any kind instead of vest
Is concession to convenience certain
ly not to be regarded lightly, and while
it solves a difficult problem for the

beauty that never fails to excite ad-

CHALLENGES RIGHT
TO HOLD THE FLOOR
Missourian Defeats Himself BY
BraVado Motion After Cries
of Regular Order"

There is a good story of parliamen-
tary cleverness and rapid-tire perform
ance behind the Senate's agreement to
vote on the tariff commission bill in the
last hours of the session.
Stone of Missouri was on the floor
about o'clock this morning talking
against time and this bill. Senator Over
man demanded that the sundry civil bill
be taken up. To take it up would dis
place the tariff board, which was the
unfinished business.
Regular order, regular order" called
out a number of sleepy voices, which
meant that they insisted on going ahead
with the tariff commission talk and
fighting 1t out on that line.
"oh, well, Mr.. President" observed
Mr.. Stone, I'm willing to make mo-
ton myself to take up the sundry civil
bill" And he did, apparently in a spirit
of bravado and confidence that 1t would
not be carried.
1t wasn't carried, either, and Senator
Stone went right on talking against
time.
But that motion to take up the sun
dry civil bill had been noted by BeV-
eridge Under the Senate rules, Sem
ator may talk a year II ne can keep
steadily at it, but if there is 'interven-
ing business" at any time in his speech,
that business divides the speech, and 1t
becomes two speeches.
Now, a Senator may not make two
gpeeches on the same theme in the
same day, If there is objection. So
when Stone made that motion he ended
his first speech; when he started to talk
again, he was making another speech,
according to tine rules; and Beveridge
was on his feet instantly with the point
II call attention to rule 3, under
which the Senator is making second
speech on the same day, which is VIC:
lation of the rule" he said.
Vice President Sherman had been out
of the chamber; but he was now in the
chair. He held a brief inquest, discov-
cred that Beveridge had his facts on
straight, and ruled that Stone had lost
the floor.
Beveridge instantly presented his de-
mand that the Senate agree to vote on
the tariff commission at $50 a. m. Sat
urday; and il was agreed to.
That is what saved the tariff commits
sion, in all probability.

the information that the missing heiress
had been seen in. Florence, Italy. with

Following the admission Of Miss Sarah
Henry Atherton, a pupil at Bryn Mawr,
