THE BIG SHOW OF THE WORLD.
Twenty-Second Annual Tour of Sells
Brothers Enormous United
Shows.

On October 14th, 1898, the famous
Sells Brothers will visit Texarkana
with their entire colossal unity o.
Circuses, Menagerie, Moorish Caravan
and Spectacular Pilgrimage to Nee
ca, Regal Roman Hippodrome, Olym-
pan Elevated Stages, Tropical Aqua
rum, Aviary, Royal Japanese Troupe,
Arabian Nights Entertainment and
splendid Free Street Parade. Had not
Adam Forepaugh made his final exit
from mortality's great arena, pre-
sumably to manage "a galaxy of stars"
elsewhere, he would be forced to con.
cede that Sells Brothers now have es-
sentialy the Greatest Show on Earth,
and the only legitimate one of its
kind left. A menagerie which includes
among many rare wild beasts the only
pair of full grown giant Hippopotami,
worth 100000, is something to boast
of. Other notable exclusive features
are a most singular Hairless Horse,
whole flock of stately Ostriches, and
the tiniest pair OF cattle ever known
veritable mites from elfdom. The
program Of ofHippodrome races is upon
a truly imperial scale, and introduces
the greatest drivers, riders and ath-
ietes of both sexes, including an as
tonishing troupe of Berber and Be-
douin gymnasts. The newly devised
spectacle of the Pilgrimage to Mecca
will introduce many rich, striking and
romantic novelties. Excursions on all
railroads.
Best Of all these alluring features is
the reduction ofadmission prices from
81 to 80 cents.

Facts for the Travelling Public,

Emigrants, commercial men, tourists,
mariners and miners relating to the
preservation of health under condi-
tions unfavorable to it, may be CLEAN
ed with profit from the oft published
testimony of such persons relating to
the protective and remedial qualities
of Hostetters Stomach Bltters, a very
valuable remedy to those who tra-
verse "the briny deep" or are sub
jected to malarlal influences or out
door exposure. With as much cer-
tainty as DR.. Koch's celebrated lymph
destroys the organic microbe, the Bit
ters counteracts unhealthful germs in
malaria-tainted air and brackish wa
ter. 1t prevents and removes disor-
ders caused by poor and unaccustem-
food, and restores tranquility to worn
out nerves and weary brains. Rheu-
matism, kidney and liver complaint,
cramps, collie and dyspepsia are
among the ailments that it subdues.

THE RIGHT RING.
Senator Colquitt, of Georgia, Gives
Utterance to His Sentiments
ON Silver.

Few men in the United States Sem
ate are better known or more gener-
ally esteemed for their sterling quail
ties than General Colquitt, the noted
Georgia soldier and statesman, and
although he has as yet taken no very
conspicuous part in the fight over the
repeal bill, he has been regarded by
all as faithful champion of the silver
bill. That he is such, and will make
the force of his opposition to that
measure felt by the opponents of the
white metal, is amply demonstrated
by the following uncompromising
declarations made by him in a recent
interview with a representative of the
press, at Washington.
Prefacing his remarks with the de-
laration that he is one member Of the
Senate who is opposed to yielding
one inch to the repeal men, the Sena-
tor said:
q am in favor of continuing this
fight indefinitely unless the admins
tration people agree to some compro-
mise in favor of silver.
81 confidently blieve that the de-
struction of silver by denying it free
coinage will be more injurious, OPP
pressive and destructive to the masses
of this country than the surrender ofI
Lee and the emancipation proclama-
ton was to the material interests of
the South.
"The majority have no natrual right
in any case to govern the minority. |
1t is mere conventional right, grow
ing out of necessity. What are we
to expect from majority bound to-
gether by two Of the strongest pas
sions Of human natere-aVarice and
There cannot be more
odious and lntolerable torn Of des-
potism than majority stimulated by
motives of self interest and acting
any restraining favor on the
interests of the minority. There is
no refuge for the minority if the sa-
cred and protecting power Of the con-
stitution is denied them
"Can there bo a more gross, mon
strous and insulting mockery than to
tell the oppressed and outraged and
deceived people Of this country that
the repeal of the Sherman act is
sure road to free coinage? 1t would
be just as rational to say that the re-
peal of the fugitive slave act would
restore slavery.
"This contest may bring what Mr..
Benton predicted. 1t may cause
division of parties based on man on
the one side and money on the other.
1t may be well in considering to be
by an authority on popular
government, who said that in such
cases history had offered no instance
where money had not triumphed.

nation of the money power and

EAST SIDE PUBLIC SCHOOL.

In accordance with the notice pub.
lished in Saturdays issue of the Dem.
oCRAT, the East Side Public School
Board met in special session at 4
o'clock, on that afternoon, for the pur-
pose of electing principal for said
school, to fill the vacancy occasioned
by failure on the part of Prof j. e.
Bowman to comply with the terms OF
his contract previously ratiged both
by himself and the board. After
some deliberation the directors agreed
upon the selection of Prof. j. r. Cow
ling, of Russellville, Ark, whose en-
dorsements both as a man and scholar
were such as to recommend him
strongly to the consideration of the
school board. Prof. Cowling, who
was IN the city at the time, was at
once notified of his selection and
promptly advised the board of his ac-
ceptance, entering upon the duties of
his position at the opening of the
school this a. m. The board may be
congratulated upon securing the SER
vices ofa competent man at such short
notice and thus relieving itself from
an awkward and embarrassing posi-
tion.

MISS PoLLARD's NEW FIELD.

The public at large have again been
surprised by new and unexpected
act in the sensational legal drama
which is yet TO be played out, in the
courts Of Washington, by Madeline
V. Pollard and Congressman W. G..
p. Breckenridge, or their legal repre-
sentatives. This time it is Miss Pol
lard herself, who adds the new fea-
ture, the following account Of which
has been telegraphed abroad from
Washington, D. c.: "Miss Madeline
Pollard, who has sued Congressman
Breckinride of Kentucky, for breach
of promise, has voluntarily identified
herself with the House Of Mercy here,
which seeks TO reclaim fallen women.
The restriction imposed upon those
who place themselves under its pro-
lection are very severe. Miss Pol
lard is not known as Miss Pollard in
the home, having assumed another
name. She has not entered the insti-
tuition as unfortunate women are re-
ceived. She has been accepted as a
"willlng worker" and is now engaged
in missionary and educational duties.

to all intents and purposes been bro
