A WONDERFUL CHANGE.
A Child's Complete Restoration 10
Health.

Eyes, sir; l can certainly say that the
treatment of my little girl has been Won
derful." The speaker was Mrs. Annie FL
lott. wife OF Lycurgus Elliot, and living
on Webster avenue near b street, PARK
View, Portsmouth. Mrs. Elliott talked
freely of her child's suffering and onder-
full restoration TO health. The child is only
five years old and bears the same name as
its mother. Here is Mrs. Elliotts state
ment: Less than three months ago L
carried my child to see DR.. Coates. The
child had been suffering for three years
with catarrh of the head and no physician
in this city could relieve her. | read Or.
Coates advertisement in the papers out
would not go to see him until | had made
some personal inquiry. l saw MIR. II. j.
Lambert of Atlantic City, who had been
cured by DR.. Coates. and asked him about
II. He told me that he valued the beneft
received by him at over 81 200. When 1
went TO the Doctor my little girl was In
an awful condition.
There was a constant discharge from
the ears, which was horrible and very OF
fensive. She was deaf, had no appetite,
and her health was poor. In less tina
three weeks | noticed the improvement. in
her condition. Now she is well. There Is
no running at the ear, her appetite. Is
splendid. and that tired feeling has en-
tirely disappeared. She has also gained
I'm weight. All that l can say is that the
change I'm her condition has been wonder
full. and I have no hesitancy in recon-
mendIng DR.. Coates to all sufferers from
catarrh."

A Good Omen.

While on the train recently we were
agreeably surprised to hear words of
praise and commeudation spoken of
Texarkana from the lips Of an entire
stranger TO our city. Our ears have
so often been assailed with bitter and
sometimes maglignant criticisms of
Texarkana and her pec1le, without
just discrimination betw cen good and
bad, that it came like the soft murmur
Of gentle fountain or sweet strains
of soulful music to wcaried ears, to
near words of honest praise spontan-
eously spoken in behalf of this much
maligned and long suffering city. The
conversation alluded to was carried
on by intelligent and cultured people
who had spent Christmas day in
our midst and who unhesitatipgly
declared that the example
of sobriety, decency and
morality as observed in this city In the
celebration of this day was one which
might be emulated with profit and hon
or by every city in this land The fact
that they found every saloon door
closed and the streets clear Of all NOISY,
boisterous chapacterG, struck with sur.
prise those who had been accustomed
to hearing Texarkana spoken of as a
typical representative of all wild and
woody western towns. Thus it can be
seen that every good deed meets with
its lgstreward, here In Texarkana, as
elsewhere.

A Pleasant Affair.

One ef the most enjoyable events of
the holiday season was the delightful
social entertainment given last evening
by Mr.. and Mrs. j. M. McGill, at their
hospitablc home on the West side. A
delightful evening was passed by oil
present, the pleasant pasttime being
kept up until late hour, when tho
merry-makers dispersed in their sew
eral ways, voting both host and hos
tess past master and mistress Of the
art of hospitable entertainment. Quite
a large number of West side bellies
and beaux we're in attendance.

KILLING AT AsHDowN.

Last night about midnight, at Ash-
down, a small town on the Texarkana
4 Fort Smith Railroad, in Little Riv-
er county, aud twenty-six miles dis
tant from Texarkana, an unfortunate
killing occurred. Tragedy took place
at a ball, and the soul of j. Nj. Bennett
a saloon keeper of AshdOwn, was
quickly and without warning sent in
to eternity, TO meet its God. Dick
Fields, of Futon, shot him through
the body twice, causing almost instant
death. 1t is supposed that whisky
caused the trouble, After shooting
Bennett, we learn that Fields exclaim-
ed; "He was beating me over the
head with his pistol, and l shot him.'
But no pistol was found on Benefits
person, we are told.
Immediately after the killing, two
friends got railroad velocipede and
came here, to telegraph for the de-
ceased's father, Mr.. Charlie Bennett,
of Fulton, who at once came over on
the early train, and will take his sons
remains to Beirne for interrment. Mr..
W. L. Franks of this place is a brother
in-law of the man killed.
Both parties to the trouble formerly
lived at Fulton. AS stated Mr.. Ben
nett was running saloon; his slayer,
Dick Fields, was clerking for Rosen-
burg Il Goldsmith. After the killing
Fields gave himself up. We could get
no detailed account Of what lead to
the fatal difficulty,

The Kid.

The above pleasing and mirth pro.
yoking comedy was presented to a
medium sized audience at Ghio's
opera house in this city, on Saturday
evening of the Oath instant. The play
is all that is claimed for or could be
expected from it, many Of the features
being especially "fetching" and laugh
able, There Is, of course, an element
running through the play which can
not be codsinered otherwise than OBJ
jectionable, owing to an apparently
utter lack of either refined taste or
correct judgement on the part Of near
ly, If not oil farce-comedy, writer's.
This, however, is intended in no wise,
as a reflection upon the "Kidn Com
pany, which is composed of excellent
comedy artists and highly accomplish
ed specialists.

First century OF the Christian era,
for one of the most important indus.
tries Of our time-thc canning husi.

city. an American came upon sew.
cral Jars OF figs. When they were
opened the contents were found to
be as fresh and palatable rs when
they were put up eighteen centuries
before.
Investigations instituted on the
spot proved that the fruit had been
put into jars in II highly heated
state, ami thdt an aperture for the
escape of steam had been left in the
lid. which, when it had served its
purpose, was sealed over with wax.
Yankee ingenuity caught the idea ut

factories were erected all over the
