A strange incident IS reported from Cane Hill this week. On Tuesday Charley Kellam was blow ing a pair of Capt. J. P. Carnahan's mules in the orchard on ". F. Crawford's farm, when the earth g1ve way under tho mules and they dropped di>tatce of twelve feet and one of the mules was smother ed to death before they could be taken out. Of course there was a cavern beneath. covered by thin crust of earth, but that old orchard has been trodden by man and beast a thousand times before and always stood the test. It is certainly a very strange incidcn..-Fayetto vile Democrat.

GENERAL. JOE GEiGER.
Two Stories About the Ugliest Man in tho
 State of Ohio.

Two Stories About the Ugliest Man in tho
 State of Ohio.
 There is mother story told as original on quaint old Joe Geiger, says the Washing ton Post. He has always been known as the ugliest man In Ohio, and prided himself on this distinctive and superlative title. It is not every man who can achieve super latve. When he was campaigning for the Republicans down on the big Darby he was introduced as the ugllest man ill Ohio. His fame, both in this respect and as great joker, had preceded him, of course. A village joker, who was no prize beauty him 'lf arose when Joe was introduced, and, pointing pistol at him, said: Il made 8 solemn vow many years ago that if 1 ever met man uglier than myself l would kill him"
 Joe looked at him second and exclaimed: 1: 'ShOot, for Gods sake, shoot! If l am ugller than you are want to dien'
 Another story about Joe relates to his habit when he was speechmakng of hay ing something in the way Of a 'stimient" on his desk to partake of during his efforts. He used to have private engagement with hls agent by winch some gin was put in his pitcher, which he would pour out as pure, unadulterated water, so far as appearances went.
 Once when he was about to open up to a large audience in Mansfield, which included John Sherman, one of those busybodes who make themselves prominent on crowded occasions hustled up and took tho prepared pitcher.
 ''rll get you some fresh water, General" he said effusively.
 No, nov' exclaimed the General in great alarm. ''That water is all right. l don't like fresh water"
 But this has been standing here some time" said the tiend, ''and is stale. It won't take me but moment, General"
 Please leave that water" begged the General, Tn an agonized voice, II love stale water; love 1t real stale and warm. That water isn't warm and stale enough Fresh water makes my head ache. Please leave it. Don't trouble yourself, beg of you"
 ''Oh, no trouble at all," said the fiend, cheerfully, and away he went for fresh water, followed by the Generals eye, which had an expression embracing the glare of the eye of . tiger thirsting for blood and the look that is never seen in the human eye except when despair is in the heart
 The General can never tell the story without a shudder, and always concludes it by asserting his belief that it was job put up on him by sherman

tons letter regarding it. While all
 honest, tair-mlnded men III the State deDlorc the murder of John M. Clayton, and would be pleased 10 see hls slayer brought to justice, they cannot stand idly by and see the State siandered, and the people malignod on account of the crime of one ortwo men. The making of the killing of John M. Clay ton an excuse for the wholesale slander ol Arkansas was the grandest mistake Gen. Clayton ever made. His DO litical control of the Republican party of Arkansas is fast weaken ing and if he entcrtalns any hopes of ever again ruling the State, he had just well abandon them. His political sun is fast setting and ms honors, if he eveI had any, are fading from hiI mantle.

XATHEN they find how rapidly health w is restored by taking Ayers Sar- saparilla. The reason is that this preparation contains only the purest and most powerful alternatives and tonics. To thousands yearly it proves a yeritable elixir of life.
 Mrs. Jos Lake, Broadway Centre. Mich. writes "Liver complaint and indigestion made my life burden and came near ending my existence. For more than four years l suffered un- told agony. I was reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly had strength to drag myself about. All kinds of food distressed me, and only the most deli cate could be digested at all.
