BOYS, TAKE WARNING.
The Mayor Has Given Orders to Arrest Parties Guilty of Jumping on
 Moving Trains.
NUMBER 85.

The practice of jumping on and off moving trains is not only very fool- ish, but 1t is dangerous, and even the oldest and most expert railroad en- ployes aie0ften naimed for life or killed in this manner. Think how much more dangerous it is then for young and inexperienced boys to at tempt it. There is too much of this in Pine Bluff, and it is very annoying to the railroad officials, who not only fear that an accident will happen, but know that if one does, the railroad company will be blamed for it no matter how innocent it may be. Yesterday Assistant Superin- tendent F J. Connolly, of the St. Louis Southwestern Railroad, wrote Mayor Bell the following letter:
 PINE BLUFF, Dec. s26, 1894. Hon. D. c. Bell. Mayor of Pine Bluff.
 DEAR SIR;-The small boys of Pine Bluff are again getting into the habit Of Jumping on and off our moving trains, which is an exceedingly dam gerous practice and will result, sooner or later. in the death or maiming for life of some of them. Cannot you do something to help us put a stop to this? Our Watchman on Main street will give the officers all the assist ance he can, if it is desired Yours truly, P.J. CoNLEY.
 Asst. Supt.
 In reply tothe above letter Mayor Bell informed GRAPHIC reporter that he had given the police of the |eity orders to arrest every person found guilty of jumping on or off a moving train. and they will be fined to thefull limit of the law i'll every case.
 Parents, warn your boys of this fact, and even if you dc not object to seeing him risk hisslife, you may, per haps, object to paying a fine for him for doing so.

WILL QUIT COTTON.
Planters in Chicot County to Abandon the Fleecy Staple and
 Raise Tobacco.

Mr. R. A. Buckner, of Dermott, Chicotcounty, was in the city yester- day en route to Louisville, Ky. He was met at the hotel yesterday afternoon by a GRAPHIC reporter to whom he stated that he had been in correspondence for some time with parties in Louisville in re- gard to establishing d tobacco fac tory at or near Dermott.
 ''I am going to Louisville to com plete the arrangement, he said. and expect to plant no less than 2,- GOO acres of land in Chicot county next season in tobacco. I have been . heavy loser by cotton during the past two years, and must find some crop more profitable. We planters q the South will have to turn our attention to something else. z

A WORD TO YOUNG AMERICA.

.'The Evening World' has a few
words to say TO Its excellent and valued
friend Young America on this ami
versary OF our National Independence.
The Fourth Of July Is essentially your
day. For whom Is 1t made II not for
you? II 1t is not honored and celebrated
by you, by whom ought its glories to be
commemorated?
You will hear In some quarters and
read in some newspapers OF the bless
ings OF peace and quiet to-day. You will
be told that the police are instructed to
restrict this or that frolic. People will
preach about the blessing OF getting out
of the city to escape your fun and noise.
You will be reminded that the streets OF
a city are not the places to explode
Chinese crackers and fire of pistols and
toy cannon.
Fudge! Make Just as much noise as
| YOU like and have lust as much fun as
| you can, Young America. The day be-
| longs to you. 1t Is only twenty-four
hours long. and you will be foolish II
YOU do not get out OF It, or crowd into
It. Just az much recreation and enjoy
mrrt ~ YOU can.
At the same time, heed our advice
Pc patriotic. but be prudent. Kindle the
names Of patriotism. but don't set fire
to dwellings. Recall the language OF the
Declaration OF Independence. but don't
look down the muzzle OF n loaded pistol
Remember the Fathers OF the Republic
hu. take care OF the children OF you,
nerhhors Glorify freedom, but dom
hold lighted explosives too long in your
hands, nor blow the fuse OF bunch Of
ftrecrackers held in close proximity &c
your eyes.
Then, when the last sky-rocket shoots
upward and gracefully drops It's col
ored lights through the air. and wheI
the last bunch OF nrecrackers closes IL

lated explosions that have fingered be

The Beautiful In th-Tub.

Bathing is the basis of beauty. Ma
ture uses no other medicine. After a
washout the landscape smiles and the
gardens of all creation are trig and
sweet. A bath can only be enervating
when prolonged. Bathing is weakening
only when 1t is rarity-when tho
person is not used to clean living. A
girl who is afraid of water will never
be beauty. A cool or warm bath at
night is restful. A cold morning bath
is invigorating; If there Is any sparkle
in the eyes or any blood in the cheeks
they will be brought out. There Is no
perfume in Persia, India or Arabia as
lasting or as agreeable as lots Of cold
water.

New York according to schedule.
1t is fitting that he should come back
on Independence Day. He showed him.
self Independent OF public opinion when
he made his sudden and secret depart
ure In apparent dread OF the Lexow
Committee.
He was Independent of the sentiment
Of the people when he made q brazen
show Of his wealth and refused to say
where he got 1t.
He manifested independence of tho
principles OF justice and fairness when
he denied the rank and file of the or
ga nizat ton over which he held the lead
ership the privilege OF having an opin-
ion OF their own and required from them
blind obedience to his will.
He was quite Independent Of the re-
quirements OF Democracy when he tried
to compel the Democ ats Of New York
to vote for an unfit candidate whom
they did not want for the Court OF Ap.
peals.

TARITv BILL PASSED.

The Senate showed some little respect
for public sen,imeHt when 1t passed the
Tariff bill last night, and thus closed
It's disgraceful performances OF the last
three months, before the coming OF the
Fourth Of July.
OF course, the result Is not such as
could he wished The bill Is dishgured
so much that its friends In the House
who sent 1t to the Senate might well
be puzzled to recognize It. But It's pas
sage sends It back to the House. and
there Is hope that II may yet he restored
to something Of Its original condition.
Any way. the settlement OF the tariff
question in some shape is what IL mostly
needed to remove the paralysis OF busi-
ness and to set the commerce OF the
country again In motion.
There was not any great excitement
on the taking OF the final vote. Senator

sert his party. INDUCED in parting var
at the income tax feature Of the bill. blu,

Care of brushes,

A number Of little things in the care
Of ones brushes determines the length
Of their service and the condition In
which they last. For one thing. a hair
brush should be washed often enough to
keep 1t thoroughly cleansed. For this
soda water or ammonia water must be
used. and then the wet bristles set
downward-do not turn 1t on its back
and left In the sun to dry. A nail OF
tooth brush should never be left in the
holder with the bristles uppermost. II
stands to reason that water will soak
into them in time, with such treatment
and that discoloration and general de-
moralization will follow.

The Best Food.

1t Is not possible to prescribe proper
food for the multitude. Some people
"eat to live;" most people rlive to eat"
and nearly every individual has some
idiosyncrasy preventing the digestion
OF one or more articles Of diet. Owing
to this popularity It is profitable to
know myself" The foods that yield
the most nourishment and require tho
least effort to digest are the best. Il
only takes two hours to digest raw
cabbage and broiled liver. but both are
hbrous and contain little nourishment.
Rare broiled or roasted beef is digested
