been busily engaged making preparations for
n long time, so as to have everything in read
mess and in complete "apple pie order for
those who favor him with their company on
that auspicious occasion, and to afford his
guests every facility of enjoying themselves to
the uttermost. Tiptop music has been spoken
for, the floor of the hall has been fixed up in
good shape, an elegant supper will be served

be wanting; in fact, nothing which the m 'st
fertile imagination could invent. or the most

to render this one of the gayest times on rec

ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER

This valuable preparation containing in a
highly concentrated form all the properties
of the Jamaica Ginger. has become one of the
most popular domestic remedies for all dis
eases of the stomach and digestive organs.
As tonic it will be found invaluable to
all persons recovering fror debility whether
produced by fever or otherwise, for whilst
it imparts to the system all the glow and
vigor that can be produced by wine or bran
dy, it is entirely free from the reactionary eff
fects that follow the use of spirits of any kind
1t is also an excellent remedy for females
who suffer from difficult menstruaton. giving
almost immediate relief to the spasms that so
frequently accompany that period.
1t gives immediate relief to Nausea. caused
by riding in railroad car. or by sea sickness
or other causes.
1t is also valuable as an external applica-
ton for Gout, Rheumatism. Neuralgia, etc.

SINKING OF THE LINNIE
DROWN. ta
Fifteen Lives Lost - Narrow Es-
cape of Passengers Boat
Total Loss.

The steamer Linnie Drown, Captain
John Claycomb, which left this port for
Pine Bluff on Friday evening, struck a
snag or log near Helena, and sunk 10
her hurricane roof, about three o'clock
on Saturday morning. Mr.. Geo. n.
Baker her clerk, arrived in the city yes
terday, and some of the passengers and
crew came up on the j. S McCune this
morning
The widest confusion.prevailed when the
boat struck, there being large number
Of cabin passengers on board, and about
sixty negroes, beside the crew, on deck.
The cabin passengers rushed from their
state rooms on to the hurricane roof,
having no time to save their baggage,
many Of them being in their night
clothes, considering themselves lucky to
save their lives. Some of them jumped
overheard and swan ashore, the boat be-
ing about one hundred feet from land
Many of thenegroes on deck jumped into
the river, some of them swimming ashore,
and others climbing up on the hurricane
deck, while many drowned One pas
senger informed us that he thought that
fully twenty negroes were drowned, while
all agreed that some ten or fifteen lost
their lives. One white passenger was
lost His name we could not ascertain,
as none of the books of the boat we're
saved, the clerk only having time to
make two grabs" into the safe to save
the most valuable packages, before the
water drove him away Two colored
boys employed in the cabin are missing.
We have estimated the loss of life at fif-
teen, which is low figure Several of
the passengers and officers had narrow
escapes The engineers stood at their
post until the water was waist deep, when
they took to the water and struck out for
shore The barkeeper, Mike Blessing,
also had to swim ashore
The Linnie Drown was purchased last
spring by her commander at Cincinnati
for $35, 900, and is insured for 1924, 900
in Cincinnati offices. She had about
three hundred tons of miscellaneous
freight on board mostly dry goods She
is lying one hundred feet from shore,
opposite Helena, and it is thought she
will prove a total loss. The bar was
owned by Kirnan & Sayers, whose loss
is estimated at $500, on which they
have no insurance

On the falls last evening there were 2
feet inches water in the pass down

The prospects favor another rise, as

no boats from the latter port plying be-
low Parkersburg
