FREEMAN against BROWN.
a MAYoRALTY CONTEST.

The City of Eureka Springs,
Arkansas, over sixteen hundred
miles from New York, is in
the midst of mayoralty contest
not unlike the present one in Pas
sale. The Eureka Springs Fonn-
tain weekly and the Times Eeh0
(daily) are advocating Mr.. q P.
Freeman, uncle to O. S. Freeman
of the REcoRD, against the reign
ing Mayor, Mr.. w. H. D. Brown,
who is running for second term
The Iimes- -Erh0 publishes the fol-
lowing, edItorially (:
IN our announcement column today
will be found the name OF Hon. q. r.
Freeman as 4 candidate for the Office of
Mayor of this City. The man who is to
handle the reigns of the city government
of Eureka Springs during the next term
should be man in whom the confidence
of the people IS not misplaced. who has
the good of the city at heart, and who
has the stamina to carry out al measures
looking to the advancement and better
ment of the people. We think that in
Mr. Freeman all these qualities are com
bined, and that if he is elected Eureka
Springs will have Mayor of which she
may be proud.

Removal of Ground is Forbidden,
by or6er of Frank Kasuell. Supt. of
Streets"
The above is copy of a notice
which has recently been placed on
@. D. Baldwin S property at west
erly end of the Boulevard. As
usual, however, the street superln-
tendent is way behind, hundreds
if not thousands of tons of earth
having been removed from the
line of the Boulevard during the
past two years which will be
needed by the city when that
thoroughfare is opened and graded.
When Mr.. P. N. Jewett was street
superintendent no one was allowed
to remove earth from places where
it was likely TO be needed Not
withstanding the above notice
several carloads of gravel are
taken away every morning before
seven o'clock.

ARBOR DAY.

The Governor of New Jersey has
set apart April a8 to be celebrated
as Arbor Day, at which time the
various public schools and other
private institutions of learning
which SO elect will enter into the
spirit of the occasion and, by exer-
cises of more or less elaborate
nature endeavor to carry out the
ideas the day suggests. In the
country districts the program in
cludes the planting of trees and
shrubs in and about the school
grounds. In the cities it is not
possible to go into the detail of ac-
tual tree planting, but many beau
tiful ceremonies will be enacted,
calculated to teach the young the
lessons in NATURAL themes relating
to the usefulness and necessity of
trees in the economy of nature.
Since this festival was instituted
some years ago it has grown more
and more in public favor, and. from
the beginning which it had in some
of the western States the obser-
vation has, from proclamation by
the various State Governors, been
taken up until now the day finds
some enthusiastic reception IN
nearly every city The, idea OF
tree planting has been the nucleus
around which are groubed the in
structive and practical ceremonies
which form prominent part in the
exercises of the public schools OF
the land. Arbor Day has its sig
nihcance ,andi is to be hoped that
it may become more and more
popular with the coming years

"Ohl how wish i could getout of the

to sew or do any kind of work about the
house for it. = exclaimed a bright Young
woman to a sympathetic customer with
philanthropic inclinations, whom she
was serving. No I've no one could
visit" she continued. in reply to the nat
ural suggestion that she might visit
friend
A few days later the customer was
calling at a charming little home in a
pleasant suburb. when her hostess.
apropos of some pressing duties, said:
/" If | knew of some nice young woman
who would like to spend week or two
in the country. and who would come and
stay here and help me a little with my
work each day. would board her with
out charge, and be glad of the chancei
It would really bel a mutual benefit. she
would have an inexpensive outIng.-a

a full equivalent for value received.
You're always studying up some plan
to help people who try to help themselves,
can't you suggest something for my
case?"
She Of the philanthropic inciinations
Immediately bethought herself of the
bright young woman in the sitting city
shop. They talked the matter over. and
in less than week the city girl was en-
joying the longed-for country surround
ings, while her hostess was equally happy
in the prospect of getting caught up
in her work and having some rest The
experiment proved apeTfect success and
thus was sown the germ which has
grown into the Helping Hand Visitors
Club, unique organization, formed on
the plan carried out in the first expert
ment, through which those who have
homes in the country and who would like
to receive Helping Hand Visitor for
sojourn of any specified length can be
put into communication with respectable
self-supporting women in cities. clerks,
seamsfresses. millineFs, etc..--whO.
though anxious to spend a short vaca-
ton in the country, cannot afford the ne
cessaTy expenditure for board.
Undoubtedly. there are many who
would be glad to receive these young
women into their homes on the condition
that in return for board and lodging they
would render some service IN sewing or
housework. leaving themselves, OF
course, sufficient time during the day to-
enjoy the pleasures of walks, drives. or
other recreations.
A Central Bureau has been established
in New York for furthering the purposes
of the club. and extending Its develop
ment IN all directions.

Advertising to Profit.

A neat illustration of the value
of advertising money wisely ex-
pended was given at the Portland
Young Mems Christian Association
meeting Sunday, when General
Secretary Mcdonald stated that he
had some curiosity to know what
method of advertising reached the
most people. He had circulated
thoushands of little dodgers, Civ
ing notice of the meeting, and he
asked those who had seen them
and had been moved to come
through that means to rise. The
hall was packed as full as it could
hold, and of the entire number
about fifteen arose. Then Mr..
Mcdonald asked all who had
read the notice in the news
papers and had been influenced by
them, to rise, and the men rose in
a body.

Hang the skates on the attic wall.
Alas. for spring and summer and fall
No more gliding swift as light
Over the runners keen and bright

In the garret over the shed.
You could fancy it almost drew
A sigh to itself, as if it knew
No more speeding over the snow
Down the steep to the glen below.
No more storming the sIiowfort wall
A breath of spring has leveled it all.
But hip, hurrah, for the bat and ball,
Marbles. tops and tennis and ALL
Bring yoar boat and rejoice to see
The ripping lakes blue waters free.
Bring your rod. and rejoice to find

Who wants snow on the green hillside?

Days and weeks and mopths go by

Well weather once more the wintry blast

Local Newspaper Pride.

The people who form part of
the municipality of city of the
second class, do not, as rule, rel
ish the journalism that has not the
courage to say spade is a spade,
nor will they tolerate personal
aims to the exclusion of city mat
ter since they have been educated
up to the appreciation uf what a
paper should be by the wonderful
specimens of work given daily by
the metropolitan press.
There is a local pride in every
citizen for the place of his residence
or nativity or where he owns prop
erty, and he desires that it shall
be represented by the best that
can be obtained in every avenue
of its varied departments. Being
suburb to one of the great cities,
the local paper is placed in COM
parison with the great journals
which record the daily history of
the world, and much more is ex-
pected and demanded than from q
little weekly in an interior town.
Hence. that paper which truly rep
resents the people, is the one
whose columns are the reflex of
the local events, whose comment
is upon the truthful, whose utter
ances are fearless and direct, whose
actions are definite, independent
and not biased, which can exist
without official pap or the corrupt
ing tendency of official favor and
bribery; whose power lies in pop.
ular favor, won by being the cham
pion of the peoples rights above
the favors of official patronage !;
which has the courage of its con-
victions and does not hesitate to
tell the devil he is devil, and
withal, abstaining from the fakes
of journalism, the brutality of
coarsencss, the cowardice of innu-
endo and the perversion of truth.

One of the Royal Blue Line
trains of Baltimore and Ohio roa d,
on recent run between New York

Should Not Appeal in Vain.

In these days of chronic subscrip-

tribute to all the causes which
appeal to his purse may well keep
his hand in his pocket continuously.
But there are some causes which
stand out from others as so entirly
meritorious that they appeal to
every right thinking man, and
certainly should not appeal in vain.

Personal Friends

MAYOR BROWN SATISFIED.

He VIII Not Make Amy Further Com
test.
Mayor Brown was seen this
morning on the way to business in
New York and asked if he in
tended to make any further con-
test. He said not, and added:
Passaic City record., 1893-04-01

No matter what the cause may
be Mr.. Slater has fairly got the
nomination and is entitled to Re-
publican support
Passaic City record., 1893-04-01

Who is it that is pushing Mayor
Brown forward ? Certainly not his
friends. 1t is not a contest be-
tween Mr.. Brown and the people
but between the people and the
politicians, and the people are go
ing to win.
Passaic City record., 1893-04-01

The politicians continue to pull
the wool over Mayor Browns eyes
while they pretend to be his
friends and working for his inter
ests. He has been too kind heart
ed and considerate to be led to the
slaughter now by men who are
fighting for political Office and pat
ronage, and who have no regard
for him beyond the extent to which
they can use him in furthering
their own schemes.
Passaic City record., 1893-04-01

Having publicly announced
his reluctance at running for re-
election, and having, after the pri-
maries, admitted that Mr.. Slater
had been chosen by the people and
that therefore he would not make
any further effort to retain the
office, it seems the hight of folly
for Mayor Brown to allow his
name to be placed at the head of
an independent " ticket.

artificial flowers. She wore the usual
veil. Prince Kalanianaole acted as
best man and Miss Helen Parker as
bridesmaid. After the marriage
ceremony had been concluded, the

Mana, Hawaii, their future home.
The BULLETIN wishes the couple a

TWO SHOTS FIRED.
The Guards See Night Providers In
the Palace Yard.


At 2.45 O'Clock this morning shot
was heard on the Palace Walk side
of the Palace yard and few minutes
later another pang was heard from
the Richards street side. Captain
Schlemmer, who was on duty at the
Police Station, heard the shots and
Immediately made for the direction
from whence they came. Opposite
the Government building the officer
met Captain Ziegler with a squad of
guards coming out of the Govern
ment building yard, going to investi-
gate the shooting.
The guard stationed on the Palace
Walk gate of the Palace was inter
rogated by the officers. He stated
that while on duty he had seen three
men, one of whom carried bundle,
stealthily moving among the bushes.
The guard halted them and they
stopped. He called out to the cor
poral of the guard, when the men
turned and ran towards the Richards
street gate, when he fired shot.
The guard stationed on that side
was seen later. He said that after
he heard the shot, he saw two men
running towards the fence on Rich
ards street, when he fired also. The
two men then turned and ran to-
wards the Government building and
disappeared in the darkness. The
guard on the King street side did
not see anybody.
Captains of police Schlemmer
Juen and Klemme made a thorough
search of the Palace premises, but
did not find anybody. 1t is the com,
mon belief that the guards saw

The Invention of a Genius.

A New York genius has invented
a machine for the self-propulsion of
ships. 1t consists of long strong
platforms rugged out on either side
of a vessel that rise and fall with
the roll of the waves and operate a
propeller. The motion of these
platforms in strong sea would be
similar to that of the pump handles
of the old-fashioned fire engines
when the boys were shaking her
up lively" The inventor thinks that
the tendency of these outriggers
would be to steady the vessel as
we'll as to force it forward. They
would operate in dead" calm
nearly as well as in storm, for the
ocean is never at rest.-New York

Chicago to Liverpool in Five Days.

"Within another year the ocean
voyage between Liverpool and this
country will be reduced to three
days." said Charles l.. Taylor of
Toronto at the Palmer recently.
"The Canadian Pacific steamship
line will run direct to Newfound-
land, this route being nearly thou
sand miles shorter than the route to
New York. In fact, we propose to
land passengers in Chicago five days
out from Liverpool, or in the same
time now occupied in making the
ocean voyage to New York. A rail
road will be constructed from New
foundland to connect with the Bos-
ton and Maine road, and passengers
bound for the United States will be
enabled to take the short sea voy-
age, which is destined to become
the popular route to Europe and
