MoDoweirs Republican Record.

The American sent a reliable re-
porter to Desha county, Ark, Nc
DOwell's home, where he lived seven
years, to investigate his political re-
cord, which has several times been
brought in question here, and which
reports he has denounced as malicious
lies. The result was that the Ameri-
can published nine columns yester-
day, mostly certificates of prominent
white citizens and leading negroes,
testifying that Mcdowell affiliated
with the negroes as Republican
that he was nominated and run on
the Republican ticket for magistrate
and was elected by the Republicans
that he kept the district in constant
stew by having his constable to work
up petty lawsuits summoning large
numbers,of witnesses, thus disturbing
farm operations; that he made
the Office pay him $4,000 a year,
which previously had been worth
only $50; that he belonged to the
Loyal League, took an active part in
organizing the league and swearing
in the negroes; that he ran with and
eat with the negroes; that he served
as deputy county court clerk under J
N. GraysOn, negro Republican, and
after Grayson's death ran for the Office
as an Independent against Jones,
negro, and was beaten, the white
people voting for Jones in preference
that he finally made himself odious
to both parties. the negroes losing
all confidence in him. The testimony
is overwhelming and the American
dcfies Mcdowell to dsprove it and
invites him to bring II suit in court
for damages as II test. This is the
record of j. ii. Mcdowell who pre-
sides over the State Alliance, parad-
ing himself as Jetlers0nian Demo-
crat, domineering and threatening to
discipline better Alliance men than
himself who refuse to swallow his
sub.treasury scheme and support him
for United States Senator.

INDIAN RELICS.
The Proposition of Mr.. Johnson to the
Commercial Club Explained.

1t is generally known that j. r.
johnson e. Son are now collecting
relics Of pre-. istoric race in this
county, and have an exhibition boat
at the wharf, and have made propo-
sition to the Commercial Club to let
this collection go in with our exhibit
at the Worlds Fair, on certain con-
ditions. The club approved the
proposition, but has not the money
in hand TO aid Mr.. johnson in his
enterprise. A committee was APP
pointed to solicit stock subscriptions
to the fund, and 800 of the money
has been subscribed, but it appears
that the proposition is not generally
understood. Subscriptions are not
asked for as donation, but as an in
vestment. Mr.. johnson is an old
boatsman, and his home is Canton,
Ky. Heand his son have been engaged
in collecting Indian relics for the past
fifteen years and have sixteen large
cases in their boat at the wharf. 1t is
fine collection and is regarded as
very valuable. The best specimens
were collected in this county and he
wishes to devote six months here to
increasing the collection. He needs
money to enable him to carry out his
plans and proposes to sell the club or
company of gentlemen who will
raise the money, a half interest in
his boat, specimens and all that may
be added to the collection, that the
whole collection shall go in with our
exhibit at the Worlds Fair, and after
the fair is over he resumes the privi-
lege of buying this half interest back
for the same amount, with six per
cent interest. This is the whole of it.

His Chances for the Speakership.

A Washington special to the Ban.
ner says: Congressman McMillin,
who is still here, is receiving crafty
ing assurances as to his chances for
the speakership from various direc
tons. He will remain here several
days and then leave for New York,
where he is TO speak at Tammany
Hall on July 4th. He has made an
interesting discovery at the Census
Bureau in the fact that Alabama's
production OF iron last year was
greater than that of Pennsylvania.
The South thus takes the lead in the
iron production of the country. Mr..
McMillin is delighted with this dis.
covery, for he is especially interested
in the industrial development of his

Thousands Poisoned

In recent work on Heart Diseases
DIR. Franklin Miles, the noted special
lst, gives many new and startling facts.
Thousands of people are slowly poi
soning themselves, weakening their
hearts by the use of tea, coffee, tobac
co and alchOhOl. These are heart
whips, causing it to beat rapidly, thus
gradually wearing it out, producing
shortness of breath when exercising,
pains in side and shoulder, hungry
and faint spells. Finally heart failure
and sudden death. For weakened and
irritated hearts the press everywhere
highly recommend the New Heart
Cure discovered by DIR. Franklin
Miles, which is for sale at Owen d

A Blacksmith Saves The Life of A
Little Girl.

Minnie Carney was perhaps as near
leaving this world as anyone can be,
to recover. She was sick with chol-
era mOrbus completely exhausted
and unconscious. The physicians in
consultation pronounced her case
hopeless and beyond the power of
cure. Chas. j. Newcomb, a black.
smith walked four miles through the
darkness, rain and storm to get rem
edy he had himself used, and which
he firmly believed would cure her.
That medicine was Cham berlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
He obtained part of a bottle, with
which he hastily returned, and gave
the little sufferer half teaspoonful,
which relieved her and consciousness
gradually returned. The medacine
was given in broken doses, and in a
short time she was well. He is posi-.
tive that it saved her life, and has

An Assortment of Races.

A short time ago an anthropologist of
New York city got group of men of
many races in his house for a purpose.
In The group there were North Ameri-
can Indian, Chinaman, a negro, a
Hawaiian, Hebrew, an Arab, an East
Indian and Europeans of the Gothic.
Celtic, Slavic and Latin races. All of
them were found in the city of New
York, and all were able to use the
English language well or otherwise.
The anthropologist who brought them
together desired to get their notions
upon certain questions of race,
linguistics and religion, but he had
great difficulty in getting them. He
proposes to hold other conferences of
the same kind, and to prosecute his in
vestigations until his object has been
attained. ''All races of men are of one
blood" according to the Scriptures.

Many Men. Many Minds.

The climate of Hindoostan goes a
long way toward explaining the religious
scruples which would make millions of
Brahmins starve rather than eat meat
stews, but less Ineligible is the preju-
dice of Japanese peasants, who cannot
be persuaded to drink cows milk. The
Abyssinian highlanders would shrink
from neither alternative, but would
promptly cut the acquaintance of a
neighbor who should defile himself by
broiling a rabbit. Moses, too, inter
diets rabbits flesh, which constitutes
the only luxury of the snow-bourd
Jakoots, who would scorn to waste a
copper coin on Chinese tea, but are apt
to fuddle with decoction of fly toad
stood. The Tartar emirs scandalize
American missionaries by their fond
ness for milk brandy (l1oumiss), but
are, in their turn, amazed at the caprice
that makes their pious guests prefer
pork to horsefesh. After all, there is
no disputing about tastes.

PICKPOCKETS ARE BORN.
They Must Have Long, Flexible Fingers
Moist at the Ends.

They Must Have Long, Flexible Fingers,
Moist at the Ends.
A man must have the physical endow-
ment to be pickpocket, just as man
must have a certain mental endowment
to be poet, says noted criminal in
the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. The
lining of the pocket must be taken hold
of about an inch from the top of the
inside. 1t must be drawn up easily and
quickly at the same time.
Not more than half dozen move
ments of the fingers should be necessa-
ry to get the lining out far enough.
With the lining, of course, will come
the pocketbooB, and this should never
be touched by the fingers until it is al
most ready to drop into the hand of the
thief.
Some experts never touch the book
until it is in the hand. Now, the fingers
to do this should be slender, not neces-
sarily long but thin and flexible and the
best piclzpockets are those whose finger
ends are naturally moist.
