While the scientists are inquiring

its symptoms, should run the disease
out Of their systems by means Of that

In speech before the Texas Leg
islature, Senator Regan made the
following strong utterance on the IL
nancial question: In the govern
ments OF Europe having the best IL
nancial systems, the circulating me-
dunn amounts to from So to SEQ per
capita OF the population. In this
country we have nominally s22 per
capita and this includes $500 600 900
to 500 900, 900 in legal tender notes
and gold and silver stored in the
United States treasury. The reserves
of the national banks are also includ-
ed, 80 that when you come TO sift 1t
down YOU will find not more than 50
per capita in circulation. Ny judg-
ment is, there ought to be $50 per
capita in circulation. Applause 1t
would not be too much-the business
interests and a healthy activity in
trade require that much. / would
have free and unlimited coinage Of
silver.

Have an Eye to Your Eyes,

How few think of the value of
good eyes, till they begin to fail :
How many have failing eyes and
don't know it. or if they know it,
are ashamed to make it known; OF
those who wear spcctacle>, how few
have them to fit, or suit their eyes
Aud how few know that an imperfect
fit Injuries the eye: We have for
several wears made a speciality of the
eve, its study and treatment, and
for twelve months have made a
speciality of testing and fitting fine
glasses by the aid Of the Johnston
Dioptric Eye Meters We guaran-
tee fit, and perfect satisfaction, and
when this is done, with good pebbles,
the eve not only ceases to fail, or As
is said, go from You" but the
sight generally improves. To all
who wish 20 know if their glasses fit
their eyes, and to those who have
never worn glasses, and want to
know whether they need or would be
benefited by the use Of glasses. we
offer free examination. Specta-
cIcs Of all kinds furnished at reason
able rates. Respectfully,

RAILROAD REGULATION.

The action of the Arkansas Legs
lature in refusing to pass bill Great
ing n State railroad commission, IS
to be regretted. All admit that the
proper regulation and control OF rail-
roads is as much needed in this as
other States, Since Georgia inaug-
Grated her railroad commission, it
has been shown that freight rates
have been lessened very consdera-
bly,, and all unjust discrimination
Other States have success
fully tried this plan. Texas, by her
Legislature, has just created rail-
road commission, the question hay
ing been the main issue in her last
State election.
Again, we say the action Of the
Arkansas Legislature in refusing to
pass the commission bill, is to be
deprecated. We are truly glad to
know that our representative, Hon.
f. f. White, voted for the commits
sion. The Gazette and Democrat,
of Little Rock, both opposed the
measure, be it said to their discred-
it; it has often been charged that
both are corporation papers, and it
begins to look that way. A strong
railroad lobby also worked against
the bill. Much might be said along
this line.
1t now looks like Arkansas, like
Texas, will have to make railroad
control by a commission, a State is
sue in our next campaign. We
heartily hope such will be the case.

THE KEY OF DEATH.

An Object of Curiosity to tho Visitors of
Venice.
About the year 1900 stranger named
Tcbaldo established himself as n mcr-
chant in Venice. Soon becoming infat-
uated with the daughter of one of the
most ancient and wealthy families he
asked her hand and was rejected, the
young lady being already afIianced.
Half crazed and thoroughly cnraged he
planned revenge. Being an excellent
mechanic he soon evolved most formid-
able looking key. The handle of this
unique weapon could be easily turned.
Being turned it disclosed spring with
n missile in the shape of needle of OK.
quisite finencss. With this weapon Tc-
baldo waited at the church door until
the maiden he loved passed in on the
morning OF her marriage.
When the bridegroom appeared the
desperate lover, unpcrccivcd, sent the
slender poisoned needle into his rivals
breast and within an hour he was dead
of strange battling disease" Again
Tebaldo demanded the hand of the
maiden but was refused. Within few
days both her parcntshad died in Il very
mysterious manner. Suspicion being
excited examination was made and the
sInall.steel instruments were found in the
flesh in both cases. One day the maiden
allowed Tebaldo an audience but told
him that she would never be his bride.
Within an hour she was corpse Tc-
baldo was suspected, the key was dis
discovered and the culprit hanged. The
celebrated ''iSey of death" is still shown
to the curious visitor of the Venice
museum.
