DINNER FOR Ex-SLAvES.

Columbia, S. c., Dec. 23.-Columbia
merchants have contributed literally
for big Christmas dinner 70 be given
to the former slaves Of this city and
vicinity. "Uncle Charlie Jaggers,"
one of the hest known negroes of
Columbia, collected the fund and has
made the arrangementse for the feast.
Uncle Charlie" decided that the bet
ter plan would be to send we'll filled
baskets around to the home OF the ID
slaves. At first it was decided to give
the dinner at one place and invite the
ex-slaves to attend, but Uncle Char
lie" vetoed the plan on the ground
that there would be too much snatch
ing' at the table and that the older
guests would probably get the worst
of it.

Washington, Dec. 23.-Senators Var
daman and Williams have made ten
tative agreement on the division Of
Federal patronage in Mississippi and
very probably the long-standing dis
pute between the two senators over
the patronage question will soon be
settled to the satisfaction Of both.
Under the agreement reported Mon
day Senator vardaman is to name the
two United States marshals and Sena-
tor williams will name the two United
States district attorneys.
| Mr.. .vardaman is to select the
United States register of public lands
and Mr.. Williams will name the United

These men already have been sc

RENEMDRANCES
FOR CITY'S POOR
LADIES HAVING WORK IN CHARGE
WILL BEGIN DISTRIBUTION
WEDNESDAY MORNING.

The Catholic and Protestant ladies'
of the city who have been working for
weeks to provide Christmas remem-
brances for the poor of the city, have
not only thoroughly canvassed the city
for the purpose of learning where they
should bestow their gifts, but have
gathered a very liberal supply of good
things, useful things and toys, for chill
dren, which they will begin distribut-
ing Wednesday morning. They have
shown commendable discrimination
and good judgment in seeking to make
an equitable distribution.
Owing to the fact that the city deliv
cry wagons will all be busy tomorrow
the ladies' are confronted with the
problem of getting prompt and proper
deliveries Of their packages. 1t is sug
gested by them that possibly there are
numbers owning buggies or automo
biles, who would call tomorrow morn
ing at the Traction Company Building
and help them to meet this difficulty
They trust that this mention viii
give the requisite notice and bring the
needed response.

Vicksburg, Miss, Dec. 23.-Two ste
nographers who said they took notes
form telephone records of conversa-
tions State Senator Hobbs had with
Stephen Castleman, testified in the
Hobbs trial for bribery today.
w. L. Douglas, who was supposed
to have taken notes in a Vicksburg
hotel, gave details of the testimony
he begun yesterday. J. G. Guern-
hauser said he took notes of con-
versation in a Jackson hotel last JAN
uary until, he said, Hobbs tried to
get Castleman out Of Castleman's
room to discuss the proposition, but
Castleman Indignantly refused. Guern.
hauser said from what he heard, 1t
seemed that both men were becoming
suspicious of each other. The conver'
sation ceased after midnight and nc
agreement was reached.

Money VIII Be Used For Purpose of
Furnishing Producers and consum-
ers lnformation-LittIe Coubt Mis-
sissipPi viii Get Another Judseship.
(By Frank D. Lander, JrA


Washington, Dc. 23.-While the
main body Of the lower house Of Con-
gress has been languishing under long
speeches on questions that are not to
be decided for many weeks, waiting
on the Senate to get through with the
currency bill, number of committees
have been meeting regularly and in
at least two instances action has been
taken that is to result in great benefit
for Mississippi.
Most important of the two is agree
ment of the committee on agriculture
that in its bill this year it will recon-
mend an appropriation of $194,O0O to
be used by the bureau of markets for
the purpose Of furnishing producers
and consumers first-hand information
that will tend to eliminate the middle
man from the marketing of agricultur.
al products.
Representatives Harrison and Quinn
or MISSISSIPPI LOOK the lead In this
fight, both of them appearing before
the committee when that section Of
the bill was reached Their effect
upon the committee is evidenced in
the fact that the appropriation for the
! markets bureau~was increased from
$50,0O0 to $194,000 Immediately aftel
their presentation of the case.
The appropriation of $50,000 which
has heretofore been the rule for thi'
department was found to be entirel.
ineffective. Most of it went for gath
ering information and practically non,
of it for distributing it. The increas,
to $194,0O0 is one of the largest tha
will be recommended in this year

Washington, Dec. 23.-All that q
Mississippian hath will he lend to
President Wilson that he may be com.
Portable while at Pass Christian. All
that Louisianan hath or can borrow
is also at the disposal of the chief
American. The Mississippian had not
thought Of borrowing that he might
lend to the President. Without doubt,
however, he will make his offer in
clude all his wife's relatives can bor-
row If the President will but signify
that he will accept anything.
A people never mas given more un-
mistakable signs of pleasure than have
been shown by the residents of the
Gulf Coast over the coming of the
President. Other Presidents have gone
South for a short time, to hunt or to
eat alligator, or, something equally as
outre, but Woodrow Wilson is the first
occupant of the White House, at least
since the Civil War, who expressed a
desire to go to the most delightful
winter resort in the land for the mere
purpose of living and resting for the
recovery of strength spent in perform
ance of duties.
Every known means Of communica
tion except wireless has been called
into requisition to get word to the
President that he can have boats
steam or sailing yachts, pianos, plan
olas, hunting dogs, horses, photo

and, in fact, everything a human be

Castleman Corr borated.

Vicksburg, Miss, Dec. 23.-Some OF
the much-discussed testimony said to
have been obtained by means of
telephone device was brought out In
the trial of state Senator G. A. Hobbs
Monday, and notes read in court tend
ed to substantiate the story told by
Steve Castleman. Cross-examination
of Castleman, who told story OF
how he had given Hobbs 5000 as
bribe and for which Hobbs is being
tried, was concluded Monday, and the
work Of introducing evidence said to
have been secretly obtained was
started.
HI. Douglas, who said he recorded
conversations between Hobbs and
Castleman, read to the jury what pur-
ported to be notes then taken.
According to these notes Castleman
was willing to give bribe and Hobbs
was willing to receive it.
Castleman maintained in his story
that no money was passed in the room,
but that he gave it to Hobbs i'll the
lobby of the same hotel that same day.
r. L. Jones, manager of the hotel
where the alleged passage of money
was supposed to have taken place,
testified that he cashed check for
$1OO for Castleman when Hobbs was
In the lobby, and soon after saw Cas-
tleman hand Hobbs something" H
said he could not see what 1t was.
An effort to prove that Governor
Brewer hired detectives to find out II
anyone was resorting to bribery was
evident when the defense cross-exam
ined witnesses.
Morris Burger, one Of the detectives
I, said he thought the bills for installing
the telephone devices and some othel
expenses were charged to Governor
Brewer, but he had no proof of 1t.
When court reconvened at 3 p. m
Mr.. Castleman was redirectly exam
ined, after which he went off the stan'
and Manager R. l.. Jones, Of the Ma
tional Park Hotel, Vicksburg, was In
& troduced. He testified that he wa
present when Castleman gave Hobb
what witness supposed to be money
Mr.. Jones cashed the check and say
