Putting Wild Cats to Good Uses.

Messrs. E. Donzelot d Son yesterday
received a consignment Of 1924 pieces
of fur from Texas, which contained
the remarkable number of 1, 024 wildcat
skins, said to have been the largest
single shipment of this particular fur
ever sent to this or any other market,
for that matter, because of their scarcity
and the danger attending the pursuit
of this savage beast. There is a good
demand for this species of fur. as they
are very handsome, some of them bar
ing q close resemblance to that of tho
leopard, and are extensively used for
lining coats and Ia lies circulars. -.-[St

found in an interesting story of a

OF her means. She borrowed some
money and went abroad, where she
purchased whatever was rare and
beautiful in bric-a-brac and works

BY MRS. T. A. DUNLOP,

Mrs. Chase has been sick at Eureka
Springs. She went to Harrison and
then to Mable City to attend the NJ.
L. Church Assembly. The overland
trip was very hard on her. She is
now in Benton county at work again.
Mrs. Hart started for the south

give one month to that part of the
state. We have received very en-
couraglng reports from her former
visit to that part of the state.
Maj. Hilton's work in this city was
grand success in every way. About
sixty new members were added to
the Union. The old members were
greatly strengthened and encouraged,
and best of all, the spirit of prayer
and faith was manifest at all the
meetings; especially was this true of
the afternoon Bible readings. His
instruction to the Union in methods
of work will be of lasting benefit.
Wepaid all expenses, which amounted
to about 500, and have $50 left in
the treasury. We thank God and
take courage.
The W. c. 7. U, of Walnut Ridge
have been called upon to mourn the
loss of their beloved president, Mrs.

Tuesday night, after short but pain
ful illness. The husband and chill
dren receive the deepest sympathy of
many friends in their great affection.
The following resolutions were adopted
by the union of which she was a faith
full and devoted leader: "Whereas,
our beloved president, Mrs. S. C.
Camp, departed this life on vester-
day; and whereas, Sister Camp was a
wise leader, a courageous worker and
a kind sister, who lived a consistent
Christian life, died the death of the
righteous and now rests in the home
OF the blessed. Resolved, that in the
death of Sister Camp our union has
lost one of it's best members. the
community pure, good woman, and
her family a devoted wife and mother.
Resolved, that we will cherish the
virtues of our departed sister and
initiate the noble example she set us
In her useful life. Resolved, that we
tender our heartfelt sympathy to the
bereaved husband and children and
commend them to the God in whom
our sister so firmly trusted. Re-
solved, that these resolutions be
spread upon our minutes, and pub
llshed in the Telephone and Greene
County Events"

cism-perhaps his greatest one-which
that great man perpetrated at the expense
OF astronomy. Artemus Ward said that
he could understand how distances be-

weight and chemical composition Of those
bodies, but he would be hanged if he
could understand how the astronomers
ever found out their names. MIR Proctor

hearty laughter.
