KNOWLEDGE

tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than Others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
atiye; efectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup

accept any substitute if offered.

THE DISHONEST DOLLAR.

SO much has been said and written
Of the honest and dishonest dollar that
the subject has become somewhat ex-
hausted, but the following vigorous
protest against the dishonest dollar
from the columns Of the Memphis
Commercial will not be without
interest
There are those who hold that any
other kind Of a dollar except gold
dollar is uDsound and "dishonest."
There is no more dishonest dollar than
the dollar which grows in value be-
tween the making and maturity Of a
debt, which causes the burden Of ones
obligation to grow faster than the ut
most possible accumulation Of his la
Dor, which, worse than Shylock, exacts
usury that was notnominated in the
bond. Ours IS a debtor country. All
our great railroads, manufacturing,
mining and other corporations, our
counties, cities and towns owe debts
to foreign syndicates and bondholders.
The burden Of all this at last falls up
on the people The labor Of the peo-
pie must be taxed to pay the cost in
the last anAlysig, TO add to tho bur.

SENSATIONAL TRAGEDY.

Hon SPRINGS, Ark, Sept 18,-J. r,
Rally, ticket agent of the Hot Springs
railroad at this place, was probably
fatally shot, through the window OF
his office, tonight at $3.50 The ball
passed through the right shoulder
near the collar bone and young Rally
is in a precariou5 condition.
Ex-Mayor John Loughran was ar
rested, charged with the shooting, and
committed to Jail without bail by
Judge Kirk awaiting results Of the
injury,
Mr.. Loughran claims that he was in
bed at the time of the shooting.
The above message reached Little
Rock at a late hour last night, by tele-
phone, the Western Union Telegraph
being closed. There is no doubt as
to the correctness of the news as it
has also reached this city today. 1t
seems that bad blood had existed be-
tween the ex-mayor and the victim
of last nights attempted assassination,
but further than this there appears to
be no other direct evidence connect
ing Mi. Loughran with the deed.
Much excitement exists among all
classes over the cowardly attempt to
murder.

X. c., p. & G. BOOMING.

Within the past week several large
excursion parties have passed over
the northern division Of the Kansas
City, Pittsburg & Gulf railway, along
its newly completed line from Kansas
City to Joplin, Mo. The excursions
were under the supervision Of Gcner-
al passenger Agent Donehue and were
composed Of the leading business men
and capitalists of those two cities,
evincing the great interest which is
being felt and manifested by the lead
ing citizens Of that section in the pro-
gress Of this most important railway
enterprise. The first through train to
pass over the newly completed line
was run from Sulphur Springs to
Kansas City, Mo-, on Thursday Of last
week. The train was a freight and
carried two car loads of stock. The
road bed is pronounced by experts
equal to any in the country, Work
on the new depot at Joplin will be
commenced this week if the building
material arrives in time. A plan is
now formulating by which it IS be-
lieved the shops may be secured by
that city, as the railway officials arc
said to favor that point. These shops
are indeed a most important item and
mean, according to conservative esti-
mates, at least 100000 a year Thus
the steel bands of this great system
are stretching out in rapid progress
toward the Gulf. Nor is the work Of
construction at this end Of the line al
lowed to sleep, but as the work pro.
crosses southwark so does it advance
toward the North, until at no distant
date the track layer will raise his ham
mer to drive the last spike in the con-
Meeting rail which will unite Tex
arkana with Kansas City--a consuma-
ton devoutly TO be wished for by the
people Of two great states. Once fin
ished to Tcxarkana the progress Of the
road to the Gulf, its final destination,
will be swift and certain. These facts
all furnish much food for rejoicing to
our city and her people, as on the day
when the connecting rail is lain be.
tween Texarkana and Kansas City
will dawn an era Of undreamed Of
prosperity for both city and surround
ing country. This is prophecy,

den of these debts is to add to the

was received from the secretary of
the treasury notifying the national
commission that in future all vouchers
for members of the board of lady
managers and for women jurors
should be approved by the president
of the board of lady managers instead
of by John T. Dickinson, secretary of
the national commission, as has been
the method heretofore.
About the most interesting of the
many pleasing exhibits in the Japan
ese section is that shown in raw silks.
This material is exhibited in quaint,
pretty packages, just as it is made for
export. According to Imperial Com
missioner Tegima, one of the best
authorities in the empire, about 60
per cent. of the raw silk used in
American factories comes from Japan.
Its exploitation at the fair has been
delegated by the commissioner to the
Kioto exhibitors association. The
designs include beautiful illustrations
of the Yuzen desings-patterns made
after a process peculiar to Kioto, and
taking their name from a Buddhist
priest who revived it and fostered the
manufacture of silks after the people
had almost abandoned it. The pecu-
liarity of the process may be inferred
from the steps described by the asso-
citation. AS preliminary the cloth
is boiled and prepared for the artist.
Then the design is traced with blue
vegetable ink. The blue outline is
covered with a rich starch, colored
dark and red, and the reverse side Of
the cloth is dampened to make the
starch adhere. Then all Of the cloth
surface, except that already touched
by the figures, is covered with rice
starch to prevent the dyes from
spreading. A dark red paste is add
ed to the sketched outline, this is ap-
piled with a sharp-pointed bamboo
stick or paper tube with hollow
metal point working on much the
same principle as the modern toun-
tain pen. Then the parts to be dyed
are covered with paste Of powdered
beans dissolved in water. Finally, as
a last touch, the design is painted in
with water colors. The cloth is
steamed, which removes the starch,
leaving the design as clear as an eich-
ing. When this process is finished
the colors are fixed so firmly there is
no possibility Of fading or running,
The most pretentious of all the de-
signs are two large patterns in bro
cades, resemqling in effect the gobe-
lin tapestries.

OF the condition of bilious stomach
and sluggish liver is the human coun-
tenance. Not only the skin, but the
eyeballs, are tinged with the yellow
hue when the bile gets into the blood.
Besides this, sick headaches ensue, the

in the liver and through the right

fenced upon arising from q sitting or

On the date above named our old
amusement friends, the popular Sells
Brothers, are to again visit Texarkana,
on Saturday, October 1lth making
their twenty-second consecutive an
nual tour. The death Of Adam Fore
paugh aud 2. T. Barnum leaves them
without one managerial rival in the
field, which they have now occupied
longer than any other, and public
opinion will heartily endorse the as
sertion that in many respects their
merit is surprising. 70 their credit
be it recorded that, rich and enter
prising as they are, they have sturdi-
ly refused to "revolutionize the show
business by the introduction of Ii
centious and indecent spectacles, but
keep within the legitimate scope of
Geological and Aremc displays, and
do not sacrifice the most popular ele-
ments of tent exhibition to "innova-
tions," which have usurped the legiti-
mate and belong properly to Black
Crook brass and nudity. This makes
their present enormous unity of Hip
podrome, Menagerie, Circus, Wild
Moorish Caravan and Spectacular
Pilgrimage 10 Mecca, Tropical Aquar-
ium, Aviary, Royal japanese Troupe,
Arabian Nights Entertainment and
magnificent Street Parade altogether
the best and most satisfactory of its
kind. 1t includes, moreover, many
exceedingly rare and interesting
sights nowhere else exhibited, such
as the pair Of huge living IIippopot-
ami, whole flock of Ostriches, the
Hairless Horse, and the pair Of Lili-
putian Cattle, among scores of the
greatest performers. There are also
plenty of mirthful and funny performs
ances for the special benefit of the lit
tie folks. Pronounced by press and
