misfortune of getting his arm
badly mangled as to necessitate
its amputation below the should

five men in Woodruff connty that
have lost an arm that way.
A. J. Mead, of Eight Mile, was
up to pay us a financial call last
Tuesday. He informed us that
if the deer hunters w'ould bor
row his net, they would not need
a barn, Judging from informa
tion we get, the people haven’t
much confidence in our hunters.
Now, our advice to the deer
hunters is, go and kill a deer or
more, bring the News man a nice
piece and we will do the remain
der.
The Show.
Tike a fantom dream, the show
appeared and vanished. Civiliza
tion moves on without a ripple.
This was the best little show we
have ever seen. The trained dogs
did well. Even the dogs go to
sleep in church and have to be
aroused with an unctuous amen.
The slight of hand performer
puzzled and baffled Bill Colier
and J. J. Hocott. He even had
Mr. Colier put on another man’s
coat. Mr. Hocott tied the actor
with a half inch rope and still he
untied himself.
The ponies and the mules were
well trained. A mule distinguish
ing one color from another; buck
ing and not bucking at the prop
er time.
There was a large crowd in
town that day and strange to
say some one just had to light;

in the interest of the Arkansas
Cotton Oil Company.
J. L. Garrett, of Augusta, was

What The Editor May do.
j
He may wear old clothes, he
may swear at times — there are
numerous occasions that would 1
warrant his doing so—he may get
drunk—most of’em do sometimes
he may lie in order to make some
ugly,sour tempered old maid who
is a bride, appear to the world
as an angel; he may try to
smoothe over and cover up the
record of some dead hypocrite
that the world may think he is
standing on the other shore with
harp in hand while the funeral
procession is passing, when, in
fact,heissquirming on the broil
ingironattheothei end of thecom
pass—he may boost the town and
laud the people who have stood
with hands akimbo as his wants
increased; he may raise the devil
generally through a half century
of suffering and finally yield up
the ghost and in a pine box be
followed by five hundred delin
quent subscribers to the mostout
of the way corner in the grave
