FRIDAY, OCTOBER T, 1904.
The canning factory at Marshal
has put up 40,000 cans of tomatoes
this season. Why wouldn't a fac
tory of this kind be a paying in
stitution for Newark <
Maj.-Gen. Henry C. Corbin’s
recommendation that negroes be
made eligible for enlistment in the
United States coast artillery has
caused out-spoken indignation and
many of the artillerymen have de
clared that rather then serve with
a negro as a possible non-commis
sioned officer they would desert.
R. W. McFarlane of Green
wood, a member of the state capi
tol commission, has started a move
ment to secure the removal of the
Arkansas state building at the
world’s fair to Little Rock for use
as a governor’s mansion. The
state now pays the governor $500
a year to pay the rent of a man
sion. Mr. McFairlnnd states that
he believes the state building,with
a little remodeling, would be par
ticularly adapted to this use.
The officials of the Methodist
church at this place seem to be
favorably impressed with the
Rooseveitian idea of social equali
ty of the races. They not only
permitted the negroes to hold ser
vices in the church hist Sunday
night, but several of them took
their families and went out to hear
the eloquent colored gentleman
expound the Gospel. YVe refrain
from expressing our opinion of
such deplorable conduct for fear
it might melt the column rules.
But if it happens again you may
rest assured then*'iI be a warm
spot in The Journal that can be
both seen and felt.

She was thin and weak and
paid one dollar for a bottle of
Scott’s Emulsion, and by tak

twelve pounds in weight before
the bottle was finished.
• Eight cents a pound is
cheap for such valuable ma

less, some get nothing for
their money. You get your

Scott’s Emulsion.
We will send you a little

seriously wounded another by the}
name of Flinn. It seems that
Jones had trouble with the two
men at Humphrey because of re
marks made by them concerning
his wife. Jones was at home and
while he was doing his evening
chores, Stone and Flynn rode up
to the gate and called for him.
Only a few words were passed -
when Jones opened tire, with the '
result as stated. Jones is now in 1
jail awaiting a preliminary trial. j1

Lake Baikal contains a queer
tish called the dracuuculus, which
is almost unknown to science for
the reason that no specimen of it
can be preserved.
It lives deep down in the lake,
and when it is brought to the sur
face it falls to pieces in the fresh
air, and melts in the sun.
It is a large tish, often three feet
long, with great, protruding eyes,
its head occupyingabout a third of
its eut ire length.
Altogether, it is a queer crea
ture, which—for the reasons men
tioned—we are never likely to se»t
in an aquarium.
Wooden Shoes in France.
Wooden shoes in France are pro
duced to the extent of about 4,000,
000 pairs yearly. They are made
in Alsace and Barriers by machin
ery, and in Lozere by hand. In the
last named province 1.700 persons
are engaged in this manufacture,
and the yearly product is more
than half a million pairs. The
best are made of maple. In the
provinces nearly every lady pos
sesses a pair of the finer sabots,
for wearing out in damp weather.
These have monograms and other
designs carved on the vamps, and
they are kept on the foot by orna
mented leather pieces over the in
step. The manufacture of these
pieces of leather is a regular busi
ness in France.
Newspapers in English.
Of all newspapers in the world

We especially invite the people of Indepen
dence county to come in and inspect our line of
Fall and Winter goods. The prices we are mak
ing are lower than you have been getting on the
same class of goods.
We don’t quote you prices merely to mislead
you. The merchant who sells flour at cost, as a
rule, makes up his loss on some other article or
palms off a shoddy lot of clothing on you at a
price that would buy first-grade goods at a one
price store. Our prices are uniform, we don't
sell you one article at cost and then rob you on
all your other purchases.
Get the habit; trade with the only one-price
cash house in Newark; the house that saves
you money.
