quick rescue. Griffith had been close second and carried the child to near. by house. but his ardor and his fingers were alike frost-nipped. Now, after witnessing his fond pride In Maude's helplessness, Lefty longed for the postponed proposal with all her heart.
 "Ill fight her with her own weap. ons," she automatically decided land after this I'll never make rescue in Grif's presence. If he can't stop run away horses and snatch children out of airholes. they shall meet their fate Next time I'll faint or something"
 This point decided, she started to walk home In the meadow lot, she saw Grif approaching
 Now is my chance," she thought, as they neared the field. q must pre- tend I am afraid to climb the fence and pass the cows, and then he will feel himself monarch of all he sur voys."
 As her lips parted to utter the pro test she saw woman running through the field 4 bull was in hot pursuit.
 Alas for the plans of bulls and Let ty. At once she grasped the situa. tion. The bull would overtake the woman before either she or Grif could reach the scene of action. This time Grif anticipated her and was over the fence rushing to the rescue There was only one thing to do. She must divert the bull.
 With ringing cry she hurled her red parasol into the field. It landed between the bull and the woman, in the path Of the infuriated animal which charged upon the gorgeous ar ticle fercely and effectively Grif rushed the woman over the fence to safety, and Lefty stood silent, imper- vious to the woman's gratitude and Grif's praise
 Presently the woman went or and Griffith and Lefty continued tleir way in silence. They entered the cool. olive depths of the woods. and sud denly Lefty did feminine and un, premedldated thing. She burst into tears-hysterical tears, partially in- duced by derision at the failure of her plan.
 Instantly Grifs arms were about her.
 "My darling. what is it?" he cried "No. Lefty! I won't let you go! You can't put me off again. I will tell you that I love you, Lefty. Do you care at all?"
 It was easy sailing, then, and the course of true love ran very smoothly and pleasantly.
 "Tell ne. Lefty, why you cried?" he demanded presently.
 "Oh. Grif-I don't know-I was so afraid the bull would get you. and"
 'He would if it hadn't been for your presence of mind It is that and your bravery that make me love you, Lefty.

You are so different from the other ordinary, tiresome, flippant girls"
 Then Lefty almost cried again, but her sense of humor conquered. and she confided to Grif her fears and her plans. His roar of laughter was re- assuring.
 "Oh, Lefty! I made up my mind when I was dancing with that silly Maude that I would find you to-day and make you listen to me"

SENATOR WRITES LAWMAKERS
LETTER MUCH DISCUSSED IN PRI.
vATE CONVERSATION.
Warm Fight Expected Over the PROPOSE
ton to Create a Few County to Be
Named Vardaman.

Jacksonville publication of the let.
ter written by Senator John Sharp VIII,
liams, in which the senior senator from
Mississippi denied the right of the leg
i~slature to instruct him on any question,
created a sensation around the capitol
here. The letter was read with interest
and greatly commented upon by the
members OF the legislature in private
conversation, but they refused to be
quoted for publication. The leaders OF
the Vardaman faction were guarded in
their comment, preferring to await the
arrival of the original document from
Washington before making any state
ments or outlining what course they will
pursue. The leaders of the Percy fac
ton wore disposed to indorse the posi-.
ton of Mr.. Williams, but they did not
wish to be quoted in print. Senator
Williams has required that his letter be
spread upon the journals of both houses,
and when this request is presented in
official form it may reveal the plans of
tho political factions in the legislature.
The Legislature is gradually undoing
the work of the Noel administration.
The senate bill abolishing the supreme
court commission, which was created by
the legislature In 1910, wa passed by
the house by a vote Of 90 yeas to / nay.
The bill will now go to the governor
as soon as 1t is signed by the officers
Of the two houses. The house took an
other whack ut the Noel administration
by adopting a concurrent resolution Of
fered by Mr.. Owen, providing for the ap-
pointment of a joint committee TO in.
vestigate the necessity for the four new
circuit court districts created by the
last legislature. Mr.. Owen, in support
ing his resolution, said that the four new
districts were unnecessary, in his opin-
ION, and imposed a needless burden upon
taxpayers of the state.
The contest over the creation of new
%,ounties is one of the warmest issues be-
lore the Legislature. Up to this time
tight contests over new counties have
out, but not all TO them have
aiken form in the shape OF bills. One of
The most interesting fights is over the
of the proposed new county Of
vardaman. 1t is the plan of the Varda-
nan county boomers to slice of parts

BILL PASSES
Separate Accommodations for White
and Negro Children.

~Jackson.-In the senate the Donald
juvenile reformatory bill passed as
amended, 30 to IA. Senator Broyles in
opposing the reformatory bill, said he
was not opposed to the principles o n
tanned in the bill, but if passed as
drawn the state would have a white
elephant on its hands," He said if the
bill was passed it would be but a ques.
ton OF time when a negro reformatory
was asked for.
Senator Sanders wanted TO know If
the senator was "willing to see the
white children go to hell because a few
negroes might be saved" Senator
Broyles said he did not want to see
anybody 60 there.
The senate finally went into commit.
tee of the whole to consider the bill,
which was read section by section, the
amendment providing for separate ac-
c~ommodations for white and colorei
children being adopted.
