The Johnsons.
The Arkansas Democrat has tho

The Arkansas Democrat has the fol-
lowing;
Not the Johnsons who are known to
the political history of the State, but the
Fort Smith Johnsons--" Boggy," Coo
chic" etc. Meeting Col. /" Boggy" john
son, now member of tho firm OF II.
Simpson Il Co, New York we interview
cd him on the origin of his name, and
that of several other Johnsons at Fort
Smith. Col. J. was not averse to an in
teryiew, AID from him we CLEANED the
following, which will be road with inter.
est, especially by old citizens of the state.
Here Is Col. Johnsons account related
in his own words
In the spring of 1898 | was commits
sioner of subsistence in the Indian do
partment, and stationed at Fort Coffee,
above Fort Smith, where large body
of Chickasaws were encamped. Part of
the tribe were anxious to 60 towards
Red river. Major VIM. Armstrong then
superintendent of Indian affairs west,
gave instructions that depot should be
established about one hundred miles
southwest of Coffee, at or near u creek
called Show-wah," in English, "Brush-
ey." Wagons, with provisions, were
forwarded to that point. When the
Chickasaws reached there they were dis,
satisfied with the location, the country
Immediately around it being very poor.
Word was brought that due south from
there, about q days ride, at a creek call,
ed {" Thlah-be-tah," in English called
/" Boggy," the land was rich, good waite,
and plenty of good timber. Word was
sent back to Major Armstrong of ths
dissatisfaction of the Indians to be loca
ted near Brushey, and he ordered thai
we proceed to the creek further south
We found the country as described, and
the Indians we'll satisfied. The depot es
tabished there, was called after the
name of the creek, "Boggy depot ! and
now, as to the Johnsons
First-There was J. W, who was
book-keeper for Cunningham 4 Henry, Of
Van Buren,. Being small In stature, he
was called " Picayune.'
At Fort Smith there were two broth
ers from Connecticut, W. r.. and Charles
The first mentioned was over 8 feet tall
and was called "Long johnson" Charles
being over the average size, was called
Big Charley Johnson"
The present worthy mayor OF Fort
Smith, when bachelor, was very fond
of cats, and had a number about his
place of business. The Indians gave his
store the name of "Cooche,' Indian fol
cat, and he has since been called Coo
chez Johnson, while |, having been iden
tilted with Doggy depot" have beer
called Boggy."

LIVER Is KING.

The liver is the imperial organ of the
whole human system, as it controls the
life, health and happiness of man. When
it is disturbed in its proper action, all
kinds of ailments are the natural result,
The digestion of food, the movements of
the heart and blood, the action of the
brain and nervous system, are all imme
dately connected with the workings of
the liver 1t has been successfully prov
ed that Green's August Flower is une.
oualled in curing all persons afflicted with
Dyspepsia or Liver Complaint, and all
the numerous symptoms that result from
an unhealthy condition of the Liver and
Stomach. Sample bottles to try, 10 cent,
Positively sold in all on the Western
Continent Three doses will prove that
it is Just what you want, Ward IL Ogden

Decoration Day,

Thursday, the day set apart by the ladies
OF the Southern Memorial Association, for the
decoration of the graves of the Confederate
dead, was delightful one At an early hour
the brass band assembled at the courthouse
yard, and played several pieces, which was
the signal for the assembling OF those who
were to take part in the exercises of the day
Very soon quite large number of ladies
and children, together with good sprink-
ling of men, assembled, and at the hour des-
ignated in the programme, the procession
moved off under the lead of the marshals and
officers OF the association, to the Cemetery
grounds, under the guidanc, of the Brass
Band.
The programme, on arriving at the Gene
terry, so far as the readings of DR.. Strong and
Col Lockhart were concerned, were omitted.
on account of the absence of both of those
gentlemen. An excellent and appropriate
prayer was made by the Rev j. G. Kennedy.
And after few remarks by Hons. B. Brown
and Gran. Wilcox, the work Of the young Ia
dies Of strewing flowers and evergreens on
the graves of the Confederate dead, was per-
formed. Everything passed off pleasantly,
and the sleeping-place of the soldier-dead
was appropriately henored.

The entertainment for the purpose of OBJ
tanning money for the partial remuneration
of Mr.. J. N. Wilson, the Temperance Lectu-
rer, who, for the last three weeks, has been
working among our people, white and black,
which took place, last Tuesday night, was a
complete success. Our excellent string band
constituted the orchestra, the brass band also
filling up the interstices. There were recita-
tions, comic songs and choice musical selec-
lions. Our young friends, Misses Leila Rudy
and lrena Dibrell sung. with much pathos
and excellence, two duettic beauties, Both of
the young ladies have voices of more than
ordinary beauty, which, through the medium
of proper system of cultivation, may be-
come of very superior character. For the
first time, since their appearance in our town
as residents, our people were given an OPP
portunity to listen to and enjoy the musical
attainments of Misses Mamie and Hattie
Nichodemus. Miss Mamie. who presided at
the organ, displayed large degree of that
marvelously bewitching "toueh'' which
seems to thoroughly nfuse the instrument
with that exquisite soul-music that sleeps in
the fingers of the true artist. The Duets by
the two young ladies were delightful. The
vocaization was excellent, the musical tones
evidencing high order of cultivation that
never fails to elicit the appreciation of all
lovers of artistic song. The Misses Nichode-
mus have. by their exquisite musical talents
opened the h.art-doors of our people, and
won a large place in their affection and es.
TEEN. The entertainment, throughout, was
extraordinarily excellent music, Rotations,
comic songs, pretty girls.

Wonderful Shooting.

DR.. w. F. Carver, OF California, is said
to be the most wonderful riae.shot in the
world. He is coming east with his rifle
and reputation. The other day he gave
an exhibition at Denver. His perform
ance is to break glass balls thrown in the
air twenty or thirty feet distant and
twenty or thirty feet high. He engages
to break eighty out of one hundred glass
balls thus thrown in the air. At the
Denver exhibition he broke ninety out of
one hundred. Besides this he made very
difficult fancy shots-firing from his hip
and over his head, and with the rifle up
side down, etc. His most difficult shot
was this: A ball is thrown into the air
about twedty feet high. He fires and
misses it with his first shot. He then
reloads the rife, and breaks the ball
before it reaches the ground. This he
did at the second trial. He loads with
cartridge of course, but this feat requires
amazing dexterity.
The Van Buren press., 1878-05-14
From Across the Continent.

Mr.. John Stiff, of Scio, Oregon, writes
that DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy and Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cured
his wife of catarrh, bronchitis and asth-
ma, after she had been pronounced incura-
BILE by physicians For nearly a quarter
of century DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy
has been acknowledged as the favorite
medicine for cold in the head, ozena
and catarrh, while many physicians use
it constantly in their practice, depending
wholly upon it in this class of affections
We have only space for few of the ma.
ny thousand names of those cured, whose
letters are on file in DR.. Pierce's office,
at the Worlds Dispensary, Buffalo,
N. Y. And the following are among
them:
