Habits of the Golok Tribes who Are Much
Feared by All.
The country of this people extends
in Thibet, from that point southwark
as far as a high range Of mountains
running from east to west, and is
watered by the Yellow river. 1t is
treeless and very billy; but the pas
turage is fairly good in the valleys
and ON the lower slopes OF the noun
tains. which, even In September, show
clenrly-marked snow line. The
Gololxs are shorter and slighter in
stature than the Mongols. and have
higher cheek bones aud rounder faces.
The men wear their hair long and
hanging down TO their shoulders;
their sheep skins are drawn up by the
girdle, forming kind Of kilt below the
waist and large pouch above, in which
they always carry their wooden tea
bowls, called po-pa, and many other
things, when ON journey.
The boots are OF leather, with skin
soles and cloth leggins bound below

garter OF various bright-eolored woods.
The hats, made Of the fur OF foxes.
sheep skins or felt. are OF many pecul-
lar shapes The dress Of the women is
like that OF the men; but the sheep
skin gowns reach to their ankles Their
hair is in two plaits, hanging down
their backs, and inclosed at the ends in
sheath OF cloth ornamented with
round pieces OF amber and cowrie
shells, which they buy from the Chi
nese. Long earrings of silver and coral
hang from both cars; the men limit
themselves to one very massive piece Of
jewelry in the right ear.
The tents utterly unlike those of
the Mongols, are made Of woven black
cloth of the coarse hair OF the yak, the
Thibetan OK. They are about forty
feet by twenty, and are supported by
one small beam on two poles inside
and by several props outside. The
ropes are made OF the hair Of the yak

JUDGE PARKER of Fort Smith re-
Gently gave some startling criminal
statistics, In charging a grand jury.
He stated in substance that official
figures show that during the past
four years there have occurred in the
United States 20,557 murders. For
these there were only $50 executions
and very startling feature is that OF
these only 1872 were by due process
of law and 558 we're by lynching.
Nearly double as many were mobbed
as were legally executed. The fig
ures also show fearful increase OF
all kinds of crime during the past
four years. The greatest amount and
the greatest increase has occurred in
the North, with the exception of mob
violence. While in the latter the
South leads, yet in all other respects
and species of crime the North leads
largely, even beyond the difference in
population.

IT was Peter Cooper who said:
Sin all towns where newspaper is
published every man should adver-
tise, even if it is nothing more than
q card telling his name and the
business he is in. 1t not only pays
the advertiser but lets the people
at distance know that the town
you reside in has a prosperous class
of business men. AS the seed is
sown so is the recompense. Never
pull down the sign if you intend to
do business, for it often indicates
that your grip is financially broken.
The judicious advertiser will receive
ten dollars for every one invested in
the columns of local newspaper"

ARKANSAS contains one of the
largest springs in the uorld-Mam'
moth Spring, in the northern portion
of the state. 1t is 20 feet deep with
a diameter of nearly 200 feet. Sixty
five thousand cubic feet of water
gushes forth every minute, producing
a thousand horse power, about one
third OF which is utilized by two large
industries, the Mammoth Spring cot
ton mills and the Mammoth Spring
roller mills. The cotton mills en-
ploy 125 hands and produce about
5000 yards of cloth each day.
