TELEPHONE NUMBER 59.
FRIDAY, APRIL 29, 1904.
It seems now that Jot* Folk is
going to win a regular Jeff Davis
victory over in old Missouri.
If Bryan ingoing to say who the
democrats shall nominate for pres
ident what's the use of holding a
convention?
The Illinois Medical Society
wants to make womens dresses
shorter. So does the Amalgamat
ed Order of Rubberneckers.
If Joe Folk walks off with old
Missouri, what’s the matter with
nominating Folk and our uncon
querable Jeff for president and
vice president?
W. J. Bryan rented a hall in
Chicago a few nights ago and en- |
deavored to puncture Judge Park
er's presidential boom. There is |
a growing suspicion that Bryan
wants to be the whole cheese.
Thomas Emerson,a negro.whose
heart was pierced by a penknife
nearly two months ago, has recov
ered after undergoing the opera
tion of having the wound stitched
and lias been discharged from Jeff
erson Hospital at Philadelphia.
The operation was a delicate one,
and is the third successful case of
the kind ever performed in this
country.
Newark continues to sustain her
reputation as an egg market. There
were 990 dozen shipped out Mon
day, 360 dozen Tuesday and 750
dozen Wednesday, making- 2. loo
dozen for the three days, or a to
tal of $252 worth.
When the “insurgent" republi
cans return to the fold at the Lit
tle Rock convention on the 17th of
May a fellow will have to pinch
himself to find out who he is, in
that motley crowd of “regulars,’*
"dillie whites,” “niggers” and ‘’in
surgents.* *
We notice that many of the re
publican county conventions have
elected from one to three negro
delegates to the state convention.
It would be really amusing if it
wasn’t so blamed disgusting the
way the fool republicans flirt with
the negroes.
Storm Fatal in Jefferson County.
Pine Bluff, Apr. 25.— The east
ern section of Jefferson county
was visited by a severe wind and
rain storm last night about eight
o’clock, causing the loss of several
lives and much damage to proper
ty. At Pastoria two persons were
killed and five were injured, one
perhaps fatally. The residence of
Martin Sanders was destroyed and
Sanders’ wife had a rib broken
and was injured internally. His
youngest son was struck on the
head by falling timber and his
skull fractured. It is though the
boy will die.
The residence of Wm. Smith,
was destroyed and all of the negro
cabins on the place blown down.
On the same place, the residence
of Pleas Thomas was blown down
and his two boys killed outright.
Others, whose names could not be
learned, were injured. Thomas’
wife sustained internal injuries
and is in a critical condition. Oth
er residences were blown down
and the whole town suffered.
Proposed New Township.
The citizens of Madness have;
circulated a petition asking for the
creation of a new township from I
territory now embodied in Big
Bottom and White River. The
proposed new township embraces'
a good portion of the wealthiest i
territory in the two townships from
which it is to be taken. Taking
White river as the south-western
boundary, the proposed lines run
as follows: Beginning at the in- j
teneetion of White river and the !
range line between townships four
and five and running north on the
range line to the north-east corner
of section bt> township lb, 5-w,and
running thence west along the sec- j
tion line to ltuddell township,
thence south to White river. If
the change is effected it will work
a serious hardship on both Big
Bottom and White River town
ships, as it only takes off a very1
few miles of road, but will deprive
the other townships of a good por
tion of the road funds, as the ter
ritory takeh from White River is
j the wealthiest in the township,
while that taken from Big Bottom
is also very wealthy and pays a
large amount of taxes into the
road fund.
A meeting of the citizens of
Newark was held in the city hall
Monday night to formulate a pro
test against the taking of any ter
ritory from Big Bottom, and a pe
tition is also being circulated pro
testing against the creation of the
new township.
Cheap Board at the World’s Fair.
Now is the time to make ar
rangements for board at $2.50 per
day at the Napolean Bonaparte
Hotel which is situated 500 feet j
from the main entrace to the fair
grounds and is run by the Cook
Hotel and Excursion Co. which is
incorporated for $150,000. There
are a few more rooms to let and it
would be well for you to make
your arrangements now as the
rooms will soon be occupied. For
further particulars see I’ d.Raney. 1
Mrs. W. C. Mims.
The entire community was pro
foundly shocked at the announce
ment of the death of Mrs. \V.
Mims, which occurred Tuesday I
morning, from a complication of!
stomach troubles.
She had been in poor health for
some time, but was able to be up
going around until Friday, when
she was taken seriously ill and
grew steadily worse until death en
sued.
Deceased was the only daughter
of Mr. and' Mrs. W. T. Magness,
and was a most estimable lady.
She leaves a husband and two
small children.
The burial took place Wednes
day at Blue Springs cemetery and
a large number of sorrowing
friends followed the remains to j
their last earthly resting place.

Young Plan!
Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
hut some plants arc weak and
others strong.
And that’s the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
ame care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
Scott’s Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
tsrvation, not because of lack
of food, but because the* food
does not feed.
Scott’s Emulsion really feeds
md gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow —
Scott’s Emulsion seems to find
it and set the matter riant.
