Two Steel CARS
FOR TRACTION CO.

The Hattiesburg Traction Company
received Thursday, two new motor
cars, and they were at once gotten
ready for service, thus adding very
materially to the companys equip
ment
These new cars were shipped from
High Point, N. c., last Saturday and
their delivery here was unusually
prompt. The cars are quite handsome,
and being of steel construction they
are very substantial The interior
finish is in ash and the seats of sani-
tary construction. The cars are brill
liantly lighted with Tungsten lamps.
One feature different from all the
other cars of the company, is the
device which permits the motorman
to throw open and close the doors at
either end of the car without moving
his position. Three additional cars
are now in course of construction for
the use of the Traction Company.

ROYAL CHILDREN OF ITALY
HAVE HAD HAPPY CHILDHOOD

ways looks well in her white serge
suits with broad collars, but she is
rather precocious, as are many Italian
girls, and already shows a truly femi-
nine interest in matters of dress. 1t
is a great Joy to her to be allowed to
assist in selecting her mothers mil
linery, and she chooses hats for the
Queen on most lavish scale, never al
lowing herself to be trammeled by
considerations of expense. Yolanda
admires her beautiful mother intensely,
and she was present on a public &C.
casion recently when some one re-
marked to her that the Queen was look
ing particularly WELL The little girl
answered:
my mother is the very handsomest
Queen in Europe" After a short
pause she added: "And am going to
be exactly like her"
The resemblance between mother
and daughter is most striking.

Rome, June 5.-Whatever the future
may hold of sorrow or joy for the
royal children of Italy, the son and
three small daughters of King Victor
Emanuel and Queen Helena will be
able to look back upon an exceptional
ly happy childhood.
The Quirinal Palace in Rome, where
the children live. has its own shaded
gardens, but lest these should not suf-
flee, the King has bought villa close
to the city to serve as an open play
ground for the youngsters. This villa
is on the ancient Via Salaria. The chill
dren are often taken out to it in motor
cars, and spend long afternoons at
play with their ponies and other pets,
exactly as though they were in the real
country.
When spring comes the little prince,
Um-berto, aged nine, and his sisters
spectively twelve, eleven and six years
old, go down to their fathers hunting
lodge of Castle Porziano, about fifteen
miles from Rome, where a scented
wood of pine trees borders the >Medi-
terranean and where, dressed in simple
and practical clothes, they live in the
open air, bathing and climbing trees
till they become as brown as berries
and as hardy as the children of the
peasants around them. Later on In the
summer they go to the seashore at San
Rossore. near Pisa, and later still to
the fine country Castle of Racconigi,
in Piedmont, which has always been
the summer residence of the Carignano
branch of the House of Savoy.
1t used to be the fashion for Italian
children of the better class to dress
deliberately, like miniature editions of
their parents. but Queen Helena, realiz-
ing how much happier is the life of
boys and girls who have not to care
for their clothes, has set the fashion
for simplicity by always dressing her
children in loose and comfortable sail
or suits" Thus arrayed the Royal
youngsters enjoy without restraint the

of some of the neighbors Mr.. and Mrs.
Keller had quarrelled frequently over
money matters.
Mrs. Keller's alleged confession OF
the murders and her subsequent repu-
diation will probably be used by her
counsel as the foundation for a plea
of temporary insanity. During her
confinement in jail the woman has
made numerous contradictory state
ments and has told many wild stories
in connection with the Staying of her
husband and daughter. Many persons
are of the belief that she Is really in
