are regular telephones.
Has a Finger-Reducing Patent.
The Patent Office has granted a pat¬
ent on a device worthy of the ancient
Greeks. It is a system of finger-taper¬
ing and joint-reducing bands. The idea
i3 to make thimble-shaped bands of thin
and pliant aluminum in sets of various
sizes to fit the fingers and thumbs, and
by wearing them at night gradually pro¬
duce the slender and tapering digits so
much admired by the fashionable half of
the world. The aluminum bands are
provided with rings which are crowded
down on the outside so as to compress
the fingers and drive the blood back to
any desired state of diminutiveness. The
letters patent do not state whether the
use of this new device is attended with
pain or not. It is said these bands have
been thoroughly tested by several of the
best known women of fashion in Wash¬
ington and New York, and they speak of
them in the highest terms of praise. The
leading merchant in cosmetics and toilet
articles in Chicago is forming a stock
company to buy the patent and boo m
the huger taperer at the World’s Fair.
The patentee says his idea will go like
wildfire, as have so many other inven¬
tions to pioduce beauty, and he thinks
his patent is worth at least $50,000.—

IT IS JODGE JACKSON.
Presiieiit Harrison Nominates a Be®-

The Nomination Generally Endorsed.
Sketch of Judge Jackson’s Life.
President Harrison, en Thursday, nom¬
inated Howell E Jacksoff; of Tennessee,
to be associate justice of the supreiffe
court of the United States, vice L. Q. C.
Lamar, Howell deceased.
Edmunds Jackson is an ex-sen-
atol-, and at present judge cf the United
SrateS court for the district embracing
Tennessee. resident He is a native and lifeloDg
of Tennessee.
Inquiry about tbe capitol shows that
the appointment, considered from a judi¬
cial and not political view, is a splendid
onte. About the supreme court it 13 said
that President Harrison has shown once
more a great deal of judgement in his
selection of a man for the place on the
bench of tbe highest tribunal in the
land. It is stated that Mr. Jackson has
made a fine circuit judge, and that no
doubt is entertained as to his making a
good justice.
The appointment was a great surprise
to the Tennessee delegation in the house,
The tWo republican members felt sore
over the selection of a democrat, and
a state’s rights man, but when asked as
to Jackson’s personal fitness, conceded
that his character and abilities were $1
that could be desired. The selection,
was the politically no more pleasing who to some
of democratic representatives, re¬
call the fact that Judge Jackson was the
leader of the “up school democrats df
Tennessee,” but unsuccessful an element fight which within made the a
warm
party in favor of the payment of the
state debt, dollar for dollar, substantial¬
ly as demanded by the bondholders.
judge These men said, however that the new
was strong, clean and able.
A SKETCH OF HIS LIFE.
Howell E. Jackson was born at Paris,
Tennessee, in 1833, where his early years
were spent, and where he received his
early education. When come to a proper
1 ge he entered the University of Virginia
where he studied law, graduated, and re¬
turned to Tennessee. He began the prac-
rice of his profession at Jackson, where
his father had removed about the time he
left college, but in 1859 he moved to
Memphis, city. having married formed a Miss Mollov,
of that Here he a partner¬
ship with Judge B. M. Eudis.
He remained in Memphis until after
the death of his first wife,which occurred
in 1873. In 1875 he married the daugh¬
ter of General W. H. Harding, of the
Belle Meade farm, near Nashville, and ih
1880 was elected to the United States
senate, but resigned his seat in 1886 to
accept the position of United States cir¬
cuit judge of the sixth ju iicid circuit of
the United States, comprising Kentucky,
Ohio, Tennessee and Michigan. This
appointment was made by Mr. Cleveland
during bis first administration, and is
the position he now holds.
Judge Jackson has always been a
stanch democrat, though in 1881 he left the
senate to canvass the state in the interest
of the state debt qmstion, being the
leader of the wing of the democratic
party known at that time as the “sky
blues,” who were opposed to repudiating
the state bonds. The bonds were repu¬
diated, but it was against the convictions
of some of the best men in the state,
particularly of the old school, who deem¬
ed it a blot on the reputation of Tennes-
see.
While in the senate Judge Jackson
formed an acquaintance with President
Harrison, then serving as senator from
Indiana. The acquaintance soon ripened
into a warm friendship, which extended
to the families of the two senators. The
two families became very intimate, and
while in Washington were on the easiest
ar.d freest relations, it being a frequent
thing to find the two senators dining to¬
gether at each oth; r’s homes, or drop¬
has ping in to a cup of tea. Ihe friendship
cot been diminished by years, and in
this probably lies one of the motives
which governed the selection of Judge
Jackson as Justice Lama'r successor.
ANOTHER INTERVIEW
Between Hawaiian Commissioners and
Secretary Foster.
A Washington special says: Tbe Ha¬
waiian annexation commissioners and Dr.
Mott Smith, Hawaiian minister, had an¬
other interview Tuesday morning with
Secretary Foster,at the state department.
As was the case with the previous two
ing interviews, it was entirely informal, be¬
confined to an interchange of unoffi¬
cial views upon the subject of annexing
the Hawaiian islands to the United
States. Nothing was said about the
time when commissioners shall be re¬
ceived by President Harrison, and thus
formally recognized, and the determina¬
tion of this date depends upon the nature
of advices from Honolulu.
Recognized by All.
A Washington special of Saturday
says: The statement is made that all
governments including Grtat Britain
have recognized the provisional govern¬
ment of Hawaii. The Star says that
Secretary of State Foster and Secretary
Trar y have admitted that the supposi¬
tion ueretofore entertained that the Brit¬
ish government has witnessed recognition
of the new government in Hawaii is in¬
correct .

Southern Governors to Meet.
Governor William Fisbback, of Ar¬
kansas, issued a circular letter Friday to
the governors of all southern states asking
them to join in a convention at Rich¬
mond, Va., April 2d, for the purpose of
formulating a plan for developing the
resources of the south and iffering in¬
ducements to^capital and labor.
CLASH OF AUTHORITY.
Soota Carolina’s Goiemor at War with
Uncle Sant's Cwt*
H* is Making a Determined Effort to
COllM Railroad Taxes*
A Columbia, S. C. dispatch of Tuesda
Says ! The clash has come and Governor
Tilltndn aiid the federal court are in di¬
rect conflict ov*r thh railroads Situated
in the state. Governor Tillraan has
thrown down the gauntlet and bid defi¬
ance to the United States court, and
tjncle Sam has accepted the challenge.
As stated in the press dispatches,
the sheriffs throughout the state, acting
under instructions from Governor Till¬
man in a secret circular issued rsfcehtly,
have levied upon the rolling stock of the
railroads which have not paid their taxes
as claimed to be due by the state, and
have chained the Cars to the track, thus
blocking the proper operations of the
road, delaying valuable freights id tran¬
sit, amounting in value to several
times the taxes for which the levies have
been made, and which were declared by
the courts in 1893 to be illegal.
After hearing the petition of the
Richmond and Danville road concerning
this “arrest of trains,” Judge Simonton
of the United States court issued au order
releasing all trains that have been tied up.
and restraining sheriffs from further in¬
terference with the property. This was
ordered served upon the sheriffs Tues¬
day by United States marshals.
Dispatches from several of these points
state that the sheriffs are paying no nt-
teption to these orders. When the gov¬
ernor learned of this procedure he called
a conference with Judge the attorney general,
the assistant and Samuel Melton.
After a lengthy council of war the gov¬
ernor telegraped the following instruc¬
tions to the sheriffs:
Where the amount of taxes in execution for
1891 and 1692 is less than two thousand dollars,
hold the property to satisfy the force. execution, sub¬ un¬
less it is taken from you by Then the
mit to arrest and we will take the case to
United States supreme court on habeas corpus
proceedings and make this federal judge obey
the decrees of that court.
Iu regard to his p sition in the matter
the governor said : “Wo propose to see
that the state of South Carolina collects
her just taxes. Our present purpose is
to hold all of the property on which
levies have been made, Tuesday and let Judge
Simonton do his worst. morn*
ing I telegraphed all of the sheriff* to
hold the property on which they have
levied. Our idea is that Judge Simon¬
ton is in contempt of the state govern¬
ment, and we want him to act so we can
get the case to Washington as soon as
possible and prove it by the
supreme court. 1 think wo can
prove that he. is in contempt. What
we want is for him to arrest the sheriffs.
If they are arrested the matter will go up
iu the shape of habeas corpus proeceding3. hasn’t
If we are wrong—that the state
tke right to collect her taxes—the sooner
we know it the better. Judge Simonton
has just beeu told that he has no right
to interfere in cases where the amounts
are less than $2,000. We will resist tyr¬
anny, or ignorance—whichever it maybe
—and bring the matter to a focus and
have our rights established.”
QUARANTINE REPORT.
A Thorough System Recommended for
Florida and Gulf States.
A Washington special of Saturd y’says:
Senator Call, from the committee on im¬
migration, Saturday made a report to the senate
on the examination made by
the joint congressional committee that
investigated the quiranticn system be¬
tween the West Indies an 1 F.orida dur¬
ing the holidays. The report states that
there is great danger of the introduction
into the United States from th se islands
by immigration and commerce and re¬
commends a liberal appropriation to main¬ iu
tain a thorough quarantine system
Florida and the South Atlantic and gulf
states. The report recommends the
insertion of an amendment to the
sundry civil appropriation bill, appro¬
priating 11,009,000 t> be expended bv
the president in co-operation with state
authorities to prevent epidemic or con¬
tagious diseasand that the president be
given authority to suspend all immigra¬
tion and commerce when necessary until
the danger of contagion and infection
shall have passed. The rep >rt also re¬
commends the establishment of a system
of international sanitation and regulation
to ptevent the introduction of disease
through immigration republics between of North, the people Cen¬
of the several
tral and South America and the West In¬
dia Islands.
HAWAIIAN COMMISSION
Reaches Washington and Calls on Sec¬
retary Foster.
A Washington special says: The first
interview between Secretary Foster and
the Hawaiian annexation commissioners
was held in the diplomatic parlor of the
state department Saturday morning and
lasted half an hour. There were present
Secretary Foster and Solicitor Partridge,
representing the Uniti d States; Messrs.
Thurston. Wilder, Castle, Msrsdon and
Carter, Hawaiian commissioners; Mr.
Kinney,of Salt Lake City, who is present
with them as unofficial advisor, ar.d Dr.
Mott Smith, Hawaiian minister,the latter
of whom made the introductions.
There was some informal talk over the
annexation proposition, and this was con¬
cluded by an agreement th t Secretary
Foster should again meet the commis¬
sioners Tuesday morning for an extended
conference. The commissioners, while
they are saying very little on the subject
of the ultimate accomplishment of much their
object, intimate that they feel very
encouraged. No arrangement has been
made for their reception by President
Harrison, but this will probably take
place in a few days as the recognition of
the new government by this country re¬
moves any hesitation the president might
feel in giving the commission a formal
audience.
