Two prisoners named Smith and
Wright, escaped from the county Jail at
Searcy, one night recently. That Jail
must be a very diSagreeable place to stay
in, if we may Judge from the frequent oc-
currence of prisoners crawling out of it SO
frequently and fleeing the country, to
avoid being returned thereto. The
Searcy literary society gives ice cream
suppers, and those who attend and par
ticipate most freely retire to their homes
early to receive calls from the local ply

Among all the disagreeable consequences
that follow the decay of the teeth, an i'm
pure breath must be the most notifying

the mostinexcusiblea and offensive in society;
and yet the cause of it may easily be re-

that Justly popular dentrifrice, Fragrant
SOZODONT. 1t purifes and sweetens the
breath, cools and refreshes the mouth, and

it removes all unpleasant odors of the weed.

| A BLOODY Yesterday Afternoon
about 3 o'clock there was lively ARRAY on
Carson street in front of the Exchange
Saloon between Edward Reed and a
Chinaman. 1t appears that Reed and
Hymers of Reno had been furnishing China
men to the Carson Colorado K. r. Fol
lowing one of these gangs was Chinese gam
bier who was constantly engaged in rows with
| the company and had been several times
ordered ont of the camp. Last week he called
upon Reed and claimed that he had been
authorized to collect meney for gaag Ii. The
money was refused and when pay day came
the gang was charged with $40 for traHspor-
tation Over this the gambler made con-
sid srable of row and on Saturday drew a
pistol on Reed. Yesterday it was agreed to
meet the Chinaman at the Exchange and see
what his claims amounted to. He showed no
authorization from gang IL and no money was
paid He then followed Reed along the
street and walking up behind struck HIM
with some blunt instrument which cut his
head. Reed turned and gave his assailant
such pummeling with his fist that inside of
two minutes the blood WAS flowing copiously
froM his head and face and he was taken
away in cart to Chinatown. This is Reeds
version of the affair and is correborated by
other parties. Reed was arrested and re-
leased on bail.
The Chinese, On the other hand, say that
when they accepted the contract it was with
the understanding that they were to be furn-
ished transportation both ways, but that after
the work was completed they were brought in
to Carson in wagons and charged two dollars
apiece. The railroad company say that if
there is any misunderstanding, it is between
Reed and the Cinnamon whom he furnished
The companys contract was with Reed, and |
they know nothing of his agreement with the |
men he hired. The Chinese bosses say that |
they have been defrauded by Reed and threat
en- to bring suit to recover balance due.
