TEXARKANA ARKANSAS THURSDAY EVENING AUGUST 81 1893
The committee also resolved to press
the bill as rapidly as possible.
YES, "TELL THE TRUTH"

After copying small squib from
this paper, as to its efforts in helping
to build up Texarkana by advertising
her properly, the News of this morn
ing goes into an uncalled for TRADE o.
abuse of Texarkana, under the cap
ton, "Tell the Truth"
Yes, we say "Tell the TRUTH" and
the; News, by inference, and with
holding part of the truth, as tC
our opposition to lawlessness, did moi
act fairly in its comment upon oul
squib.
This paper, since our connection
with it, has always condemned al
lawlessness and bloodshed, and in the
strongest terms, and the News should
not attempt to insinuate to the con,
trary, as it appeared to do this morn
ing. We are 10th to believe it would
willfully attempt to try to thus injure
U.S. in our business, The present man.
agcr Of that paper is probably fond Of
sensationalism-hence the article.
We believe in showing up our nu.
merous advantages, industries, health.
fitness, railroad facilities, growth and
prosperity, and our squib (The DEM

ted the course of the paper
If newspapers here have "enCour-
aged" and actually fostered" "incar.
nate DEVILS" end have advertised "the
town before the public as paradise,
we do not know of it, and such com.
ment under our squib was out Of
place, and calculated to injure this pa.
per, by inference.
We have, time and again, said that
we do not have enough legal hang
ings for murder, and that juries are too
ready to turn loose those who kill their
fellow man, and we propose to keep
up this work. Have time and again
statedt that the killings and acts Of
lawlessness in this city did her more
damage than could be computed, and
we hope to see the time come when
law and order will prevail the year
romd.g
In conclusion, Texarkana is no
worse than hundreds of other places,
but this is no excuse for crime here.
There was no occasion for the News
trade OF abuse against Texarkana
this morning, as there was no out
break of lawlessness to call it forth,
and it can do little if any good, but
may do much harm to the city.

Southern Industries and Crops.


The Tradesman, Chattanooga, Tenn,
in its review Of the industrial situa-
tion in the South for the week ending
August 2S, reports that there is no
material change in industrial add f.
nancial conditions. The failures re-
ported, for the week are less in num-
Der and Importance than for the week
proceeding; several of the banks which
thad suspended business have resumed
payments, and others give notice of an
early intention SO to do, and IN mer-
camille business a slight improvement
is noted, especially in the hardware
trade.
Crops reports from all parts of the
South are generally favorable. Cotton
is coming into market, but not to a
large extent The price is too low to
tempt farmers who are not obliged to
sell, and this class is larger at present
than in any former season.
There are no reports of the estab-
lishment of new industries of special
importance. The Tradesman reports
tWenty-three new industries as estab-
ished or incorporated during the
week, together with four enlargement
of manufactures, and nine important
new buildings.
Business generally throughout the
Sonth is being conducted on con-
sefvative basis, and is considerably
restricted. Credits are carefully scru-
tinized, and while the volume of busi-
ness is small there is a prevailing be-
lief that the worst is over, and that
Improvement may be expected hence
forward.

The Century contains reminiscent ar
ticle by Matilda L. Mcconnell on the home
life of the Prince and Princess Achille Mu-
rat In Florida. Among the many stories
related by this old friend of the family is
the following;
The prince passed his time in the acqui-
sition of learning. The range of his expert
lnents may DC inforIed from Ghe princes
declaration that alligator tail soup will
do, but the turkey buzzard is not good"
On one occasion when, at Achilles sug-
gestion, Mime. Murat had gone to spend
the day with a friend, he took the oppor-
tunity to test the merits ola plant which he
thought would make fine dye. He knew
the process would occupy some time and
that his dear Kate" might be an obstacle
to his undertaking. When she was about
to return, the coachman called her atten-
tion to cloud of smoke rising from the
plantation. Nine. Murat, seriously alarm
ed for fear the house was on fire, was driven
home, accompanied by some of her friends.
AS they approached huge kettle could be
seen, under which was the fire that caused
the anxiety. Over it, heated and smoke
stained, they detected Achille eagerly at
work. AS he saw his wife approaching he
rushed to her and said, while his face was
radiant with success: 20 Kate, / have
made all your clothes a most beautiful
pink You will look so lovely in them"
Sure enough, to her dismay, she discovered
that he had dyed Unfortunately all that he
could lay his hands on-sheets, pillow cases,
tablecloths and various articles of clothing,
even including dresses, though the servants,
seeing what was going on and knowing
that their mistress would disapprove, had
hidden great deal from him. Years after
heard Nine. Murat relate the circum-
stance with much feeling. She never could
refer TO him without tears in her eyes, for
notwithstanding his eccentricities, he was
most a1ecliunate husband.

SOME SAID THAT 1T COULD NOT BE DONE
ALL WAITED WITH DEEP INTEREST
AND BREATHLEss ANXIETY-PRoVED
A MIGHTY AND INvINCIBLE CoNQUERER
ATLAsT.
A rumor has gained circulation that
the well-known Edward T. Feron, Esq,
vi 5OT East 81 ST., New York City, TGS
utterly brokea down in health, had be-
come unable to attend to his duties and
was really in a condition beyond cure.
Over twenty doctors had examined and
treated his case, and all were forced to
give up and acknowledge that his case
was beyond their skill.
Then the remark was made that here
was test ease for the great and popular
medicine, DIR. Greene's Nervura blood
nerve remedy. 1t is of course a widely
known fact that this wonderful remedy
rarely if ever fails to cure, but could even
its marvellous curative powers restore
health in this most serious case?
The Nervura was used and everybody
watched its effects with deep interest
and almost breathless anxiety.
We will give Mr.. Feron's own version
of the affair.
"For five years." he said, II have
been running down, gradually losing my
health and strength; at last got very
bad and was troubled with pains in my
back and around my heart.

issue is preferable to that of Massachu-
sets.
The British War Office announces

the code seems to need reforming so as

The following story is from a Helena pa

ter Faro, owned by John Kepple of Helena,
Mon, entered the Capital gambling house
with $40 bill in his mouth. Going to one
of the faro tables. the dog dropped it on the
queen. To say that the suave dealer was
surprised would be putting it mildly. But
recovering himself after few moments, he
asked the dog if he wanted a copper on the
$40. The dog barked as if in the affirmative,
so placing copper on the money the dealer
made the turn. The queen came up a
smiling loser, and the dog won. Taking
two $40 bills in his mouth, Faro gave them
to his master.

Embalming In Egxpt.

It is estimated that the number of bodies
embalmed in Egypt from B. c. 1000, when
the art is supposed to have been first prac-
ticed, to A. D. 700, when it ceased, amounts
to 400, 100000. Another estimate places the
total number of mummies at TAI ,0OO, 900,
but this is based upon the extension of the
beginning of the practice to much earlier
date. The traffic in the mummies is very
profitable to the modern Egyptian dealers.
