People who have made promises
to The Globe to pay what they owed,
must remember that time flies. 1t

have promised and fail to call at the
Office with the stuff, will be given
the advantage of al explanation to
the effect that they lied about what
they owed.

This is Meant for You.

It has been truly said that one half the world does not know how the other half lives. Comparatively few of us have per feet health. owing to the impure condition of our blood. But we rub along from day to day, with scarcely a thought, unless forced to onr attention, of the thousands all about us who are suffering from scrof- ula, salt riieum and other serious blood disorders, and whose agonies can only be imagined. The marked success of Hoods Sarsaparl.a for these troubles, as shown in our adgeltising columns frequently, cer- tainy seems to justify urging the use of this excellent msdicne by all who know that their blooi is dsordered. Every claim in behalf of Hoods Sarsaparilla is fully backed up by what the medicine has done and is still doing, and when its pro- prietors urge it's merits and its use upon all who suffer from impure blood, in great or small degrees, they certainly mean to include YOU,

An Associated Press Dispatch Convey
 the Sad Intelligence.

the sad Intelligence.
 w. H. Eustis of Franks township and l.. II. McGuffey of Madison were in town Monday on mournful mis- sion. In the Memphis Appeal-Ava- Ianche of the 4th inst. appeared brief telegram announcing that two fami- lies, Watkins and McGuffey, were frozen to death in blizzard in the In- dian country near the Arkansas line. z. T. McGuffey, n brother of l.. II. Me Guffey and brother-in-law of w. H.. Eustis, is known to have been in that country. Mir. McGuffey received a postal card about the tenth of January from his brother at the Sac-and Fox agency, Oklahoma, which conveyed the idea that he was dissatisfied with his location, and would leave in about q month. 1t is feared he started south with his family sooner than he indicated and was caught in the blizzard and all per. ished. The wording of the telegram conveys the idea that none survived. One thing. however. admits of hope there is mistake. The weather has been SO inclement that it is thought Mir. MeGuffey would not have ventured out in it with his family. We sincere ly trust there is mistake, and that our friends will soon be relieved of all anxiety by information that their rela- tiyes are safe and well in Oklahoma.
 On Tuesday morning l.. II. McGuf- fey received telegram from his nephew, W. M. Clay. of Hot Springs, which read as follows:
 "Only rumors that they froze. Don't think it true"
 Mir. McGuffey is using every possible effort to ascertain the truth of the matter.

There's II lawyer in one of the interior

and the client wanted some papers made

job with snap. for business was dull, and
he was not long in completing it,
Now let him finish his own story.

he says, "and was very well satisfied with
what had done. So well satisfied, in fact,
that l began to wonder if I hadn't better

make it fifty or seventy-fvc dollars whc1

When Moore Sang.

In singing his own songs Moore altered
the arrangement of the airs, and sang the
first part of each verse twice over ut the
beginning instead of as u refrain Mt the
end. In that glorious song of his, "Oh, the
Light Entrancing!" Moore's own singing
of 1t was matchless treat With head
appraised, he seemed almost to revel in the
fresh morning light as he gazed on the
sight entrancing," and his eye sparkled
as files arrayed with helm md blade"
seemed to pass before him, while deeper
feeling awoke rs the passion Of tho SON.,
came upon him.
His voice one Of infnito meditation,
but of small compass-rose clear and thrill.
ing to it's highest pitch as he sang:
Go ask yon dcspot whether
His armed bands could bring such hands
And hearts as ours together.
His song was an inspired recitative, and
he seemed to improvise as he ran his fin
gers over the notes, and as the tide OF
thought came over him it was poured
forth in harmonious cadenccs of eXQuisitc g
variety. Had he been tied to chair, Will,
the added doom of prosy companion, he
would have exploded and gone off like a
rocket or a bottle of sparkling champagne.

the money it can before it goes out of
business.
1t is an open secret that Mexican and
Havana lottery tickets are sold here in
largo quantities in violation of the
Louisiana lottery law. 1t has caused
some surprise that it did not asscr
itself and clear tho fold. The first
move was made yesterday when A.
Bassett, brother of the x.prcsidont of
the Mexican lottery, and William
Churchill. former employee of the
Louisiana lottery. were arrested on a
charge of having in their possession
over $1,000 worth Of Mexican tickets.
They had established headquarters
for their illegal scheme under tho very
shadow OF the United States pcstoflice
and custom house. Tho police report
that the sales of tickets Of tho s.Mexi

largely increasing of late, being openly
hawkcd about the streets Thore is a
growing local trsmc, too, in the tickets
