Indianapolis. Ind, Jan. 13.-It is a
matter of coment that w. B. Van Horne
of Indiana Harbor, who is credited
with having played with the Demo-
cratic organization" on much of It's
program legislation two years ago, has
been given a number, of good commit
teeships this year. The fact seems to
be that Mr. Van Horne, Judkins the
Progressive, and number of RepubIi-
cans have received better appointments
than many of the Democrats. Tht most
notable committee on. which Mr. Van
Horne serves is the judiciary which
is regarded as one of the more import
ant committees together with the
rules and ways and means All Of
these are closeup" committees The
former of these two is regarded as the
most important of all and has for its
makeup the pick of the inner circle.
On this are to be found the names of
the speaker. w. w Spencer. Storen,

Great Weather.

1t is estimated that the long spell of
Indian summer which lasted pract csliy
all of November was worth something
like 100000 % to Noxubee county.
Certainly the county produced four or
five thousand more bales of cotton than
was looked for late in Oct ,ber. But
the long, dry, warm spell ripened every
boil and probably over two thousand
bales were gathered that in ordinary
weather would have been lost.
Another, though only possible bene-
fit of this fal's weather is its effect on
the boil weevil There are many who
say the first cold snap on October 2o.h
sent all the boil weevis into hiberna-
ton and killed all the green vegetation
on which they sub ist in the fall. III n
when the long warm spell brought tn m
back to life and the necessity for food
they starved. However, the boil vice.
vii is a hardy insect and wise guy,
and it probably takes more than cold
day in October to get his goat.

Agricultural Notes.
Noxubee Stock on ST. Louis Market.

Mr.. David Cresswell, who four years
ago came here from Bramer, Mo-, and
bought the Babe Taylor place twelve
miles east of Macon on the Memphis
road, and who, by the way, is one of
the very best farmers and stock -raisers
ever in Noxubee, carried car load of
hogs and lambs to St. Louis last week.
His lambs topped the market for the
day bringing eight cents pound on
hoof. At this price an ordinary well
grown lamb would bring from $500 to
$500.
His hogs brought seven and a half
cents pound on the hoof, which was al
most equal to the top prices on the mar
ket that day for hogs.
Only those who know how much,
heretofore, our stock has been discrimi-
mated against in the western markets
realize how much the above means
Put us on fair footing in the markets
and we can beat the world.
Cavett Bros. and Gurler G. Minor will
ship today car load of hogs to St.
Louis.

NEW YORK COTTON.


 New York, Jan. 10.--While still more or less nervous, the cotton mar ket showed a generally steadier tone today on continued trade demand with the close firm at a net advance of 4 to 13 points. The open ing was steady at decline of one point to an advance of one point, and during the early trading the active old crop positions sold about 8 to 9 points over the closing figures of yes- terday. This reflected bullish ad- vices from Liverpool reports that after their activity Of yesterday. spin ners were again calling freely and overnight advances from the South. indicating that Interior holders haf not yet developed any general dis2o- sitions to follow the decline an flu. lures.
 It was reported during the day that between 30,000 and 50,000 bales of cotton was on its way from the south and that probably considerable part of it was Intended for delivery on January contracts. January, how ever, maintained a premium of about 36 points over March. Owing to the sharp falling off of the intosight movement and continued full spin ners talsings the worlds visible sup ply of American cotton showed a de crease of 124,000 bales for the week, comparing with an increase of 29,- 900 last year.

Chancery Judge Henderson turned questioner in case under trial in his court yesterday when an issue was so oppositely drawn in the evidence be- fore him that parties swearing to op- posite conditions could not be mere ly mistaken, but that one side or the other must be swearing falsely.
 The case was one wherein Mrs. u " Meeks was seeking to secure alimony and expenses for herself, penRng an action for divorce. Meeks is a gambler and is employed at the City Hall Club. where 1t is stated he has one-third of the poker rake-off.
 In the taking of evidence there was some evidence showing that Meeks was here last August and September His being here at that time seemed material to the issue. And when Meeks took the stand he swore posi- lively that he was not here at the time.
 You say you were not here in August and September" asked Judge Henderson.

NATURAL CRANK,
MAYORS SHOT
At BROYLES
"0yspeptic, Fanatic, Stoneheart,
Monomaniac" Are Other Terms
in "FinaI" Retort.

Mayor Woodward Saturday said he
was finally Diminishing Recorder Nash
r. Broyles from his mind with the
statement:
He IS a natural dyspeptic. crank
and fanatic. II he ever had heart
II has turned to stone. Therefore,
It is natural that he should become
a monomanlac over the subject of
using his czar-like authority in his
own petty sphere. I don't care any
thing more about him"
Mayor Woodward again went over
the head Of Recorder Broyles Friday
when he reduced the sentence of
George Poulos, a restaurant keeper
on Alabama street, who had been
fined 800 and sentenced to 80 days in
the stockade 70 violating the prohi-
bition law.
The Mayor said he was much sur
prised that the Recorder did not make
the fine $40 and the sentence 29 days
so as to stay outside the Jurisdiction
of the Mayor
It was expected that Mayor Wood
ward would issue a full pardon but
he didn't. He just reduced the fine
to S49 and the sentence to 20 days.

BEAUTYCONTEST.
ENL|VENED BY
NEW ENTRY
Miss Helen Goodrich Considered
Excellent Type-RaCe Is
Gaining Popularity.

The beauty contest Saturday
all eyes that hitherto have
evaded its lure with the nomination
of Miss Helen Goodrich, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. G. A. Goodrich, of No
sol Edgewood avenue, Inman Park.
The whole object of beauty, of
course, is to attract the eye. The
question of whose face is to adorn
the 100000 Club" booster buttons
has come to dominate the talk of the
town. Atlanta is famous for her
pretty girls.
Miss Goodrich is a graceful. ath-
letic girl with very rich brown hair
and deep brown eyes. She is re-
garded as a fine type of Atlanta girl
The beauty contest is to continue
for some days yet Who the prettiest
girl is to be is as much a puzzle as it
was at the beginning. Yet the ques-
ton must be decided before the $780,
600 Club" buttons can be ordered
and the club actually organized.
Nominate your candidate at once
and send in her photograph.
