Hotels In America.

The ruling idea in America is that
whatever guest can possibly want is
to be ready waiting for him at all hours
of the day or night. From s O'Clock in
tho morning till bedtime he can eat
Be it breakfast, lunch, dinner or sup
per, there will be something on the
table. In order to post his letters or
to buy 4 paper or to telephone to
friend or to send q message, he has on
ly to walk into the main hall. For
wash, shave, boot-c!eaning, hair
dressing or the relief of his corns, he
has merely to sit down on chair and
the appropriate artist will be at his
side in minute. They ali understand
their business, whatever it may be,
and no time or labor is wasted in ex-
plantations. The guest knows before
hand his own share of the programme
what he will have to eat, where he
will have to sleep, and to cent what
he will have to pay. In the best
managed hotels on our own side OF the
Atlantic the element of strangeness
and uncertainty has not yet been alto
gether eliminated. A person never
knows exactly what may happen to
him; how he may be treated, or what
he may be charged even at the house
which he frequents habitually. But the
American hotel sets your mind at rest
forthwith. For SO many dollars per
day you are free of the house and all
its privileges, which. apars from tho
eating and sleeping, are very consider
able.-B,acksoood MagGsine

Thomas a. Hendrix.

Thomas A. Hendricks, Vice-Presi-
dent of the United States died at his
residence in indianapolis, Ind, on the
oath inst. The announcement of the
sudden lcath of this statesman was q
shock to the whole nation. Mr..
Hendricks has occupied a prom
inent place before the public for
many years, and throughout his long
public career he was noted for his
strict adherence to Democratic princi-
Piles as laid down by the Father Of
Democracy, Thomas Jefferson.
Mr.. Hendricks was born in Ohio,
but when he was yet child his father
moved to Indiana with which State the
subject of this sketch was always
identified. Hs was at the age Of
twenty-six first called into public SER
vice as member of the Legislature,
and since which time he has occupied
various prominent positions. as
commissioner OF Lands he won the
ommendation of all. AS Congress
man and Senator while faithful to his
States interest he was always prompt
to give mis- best efforts to the promotion
of the nations welfare. He was NOM
mated for the Vice-Presidency in 1876
with Samuel J. Tilden, but by the
most gigantic fraud ever perpetrated
on 8 nation he was deprived Of his
Office. In 1884, as the representative
of the old ticket, he was the nominee
for Vice-President with Grover Cleve-
land as President. They were elected,
and since the election Vice-President
Hendricks has discharged the duties of
this Office with the same integrity
which has characterized his whole life.
Bv the death of MIR. Hendricks the
nation loses faithful servant and the
South warm friend.

THE COMING MONSTER AG-
 IRRIGATION.
John B. DOrIs' Mammoth Shows United with the Great Inter-
 Ocean.

At Russe,lville Nov. 11th is the place and date announced for the ap- pearance of the .Greatest Show on Earth" which has received the highest marked encomiums of the eDtlre press and public wherever it's mightiest of canvases have been erected, and one of our exchanges says: From the entrance of it's Grand Geological Institute to the exit of it's Mammoth Three Ring Circus, it commanded wonderful admiration; while the elegance and decornm with which every department of this CO lossal consolidated show is conduct
 ed, secures the patronage and ap- proval of the most fastidious who are not in the habit of attending public entertainments of any de
 scripton. The arenic features are the best on the road, rendered in a smoothness and cleanliness rarely seen with tent shows. Among many of the attractive novelties were the Troupe of French Bicycle Riders; the equestrianship of the wonderful William Showles, who, as bare back rider, has no equal Troupe of Skillful Siberian Roller Skaters, direct from St. Petersburgh, espec- lilly engaged for Doris New Mon
 ster Shows; Fourteen Brawny Turks in their wonderful native costumes, presenting thrilling and acrobatic achievements, the whole forming human pyramids; the Fisher Broth CTS. in their new and original @rial trapeze acts,are truly wonderful, and deserve the immense applause gwen them; Funny (J. R. ] Adams, known as sPico," the celebrated English Acrobatic Clewn, is marvel, one of the funniest clowns. His sayings are new, novel and pleasing. Next comes "Bctts," the ponderous and pioneer war elephant, Al years of age, the oldest in the world. Fol- lowing these you will positively see the best male and female equestrians and equestriennes, mere acrobats, wonderful strongest men and women, twenty of the worlds best leapers, champio hurdle riders, famous lady five-horse riders, lady erialists, lady and gentleman trapeze performers, daring lady wire walkers, whole family of giants and midgets, ten of the funniest of all clowns, fifty cages of truly wonderful rare wild animals, performing elephants, performing lions, caravan of trained camels and tigers, troupe of trick stallions and ponies. The grand free street parade contained twenty open dens of performing wild animals, just as this monster show advertised. This was the most gorgeous exhibition ever given on the public streets. We advise all from distance to be on hand to see the only great show of the season. Parade takes place at 10 A. NJ. Rememberday and date.

No Mystery about It.

There are no mysteries or secrets about the compounding of Browns Iron Bitters. The preparation of iron IS the only one that can be taken without injuring the teeth or stom- ach. It gives vigor to the feeble, life to the debiliated, and health to the dyspeptic. You need not fear to give it to the most delicate child. Mrs. Emma Williams, of Stark weather, Miss, says, 1t relieved my daughter of dyspepsia, and my self of general debility"

Perhaps some Of our people might have thought that the war in Servia had commenced. They hadn't heard from Dardanelle then. Its all plain enough now. Ten white men and one negro in the calaboose at one time, ex- plains it all. Wouldn't it be pity for those temperance fanatics" over there to undertake to interrupt such beauti- full exercises as this?
 The question has been often asked why is it that Wooten X Oates can con troll such large trade. We answer because Wooten & Oates arc live young merchants, they buy close and sell at a very short profit, giving their many customers the benefit of every adyan l. age in trade, consequently they are to- day controlling one of the largest and best trades in North Arkansas.

A warm welcome will always be lodged in Pope awaiting such turn of affairs in the case of Mir. Hearne.
