THE Arkansas City Journal pays
Senator James Berry the following
deserved tribute: Senator Berrys
friends will not be called upon dur
ing the coming comraign to apollo
gize for anything he ever said or
did This is due to the fact that he
has never saido done anything that
needs to be apologized for. His life
is an open book At all times,
whether as a private soldier in the
Confederate army, humble coun-
try school teacher, a member of the
Arkansas Legislature, a judge of
the circuit court, Governor of the
State Of Arkansas or a member of
the United States Senate, he has
done whatever duty demanded.
He battled for our rights under the
dag of the Confederacy, he led the
fight upon the crowd Of carpet bag
scalaWags that infested the State
during the days of reconstruction,
and since he has been in the Senate
he has let no opportunity to give
the rabid radicals of the north a
blow pass. He has nothing of the
time serving, yacilating politician
in him He has always known
which side he was on without wait
ing to see which was the most pop
ular. AS between him and Fish
back the people Of Arkansas ought
not to be slow to decide which they
want to represent them in the
United States Senate, That Fish
back is Berrys equal Intellectually
may possibly be true, He has al
ways been received as man of
splendid ability, but when that is
said, all is said. He never saw the
day and never will see it when he
possessed one hundredth part of the
noble manhood, political integrity,
honesty Of purpose, answering de-
votion to principle and intense pa
triotism that enters into the make
| mp of James Berry. He possesses
the love admiration and esteem of
all Of his colleagues in the Senate,
and can do US more good in a day
than Fishback could in six years.

Extraordinary Experience Of q Youth
I'm the Swiss Alps.
From the Philadelphia Press.
An extraordinary story of a young man
passing as a girl all his life until a month
or two ago is just related from Treschatel,
in the Alpine district Of Switzerland. He
was known by the name of Laura Besnar,
and came of a good fsily. Why his friends
sholld have registered the child as a female
and subsequently, kept up the deception is
a matter Of mystery. The young man is
said to have found the companionship of
the weaker sex very pleasant and would
probably have cortirred to frequent the So
ciety of young women as one OF their num-
Der had he not fallen in love. but in order TO
WOO and win the lady of his choice he de-
clared his proper sex.
The earlier years OF his Efe were spent in
a convent school, on leaving which he
studied cure for stammering and subse-
Quently founded a school for that purpose
This was so successful that In q few years
he amassed 10000 frsrcs and then decided
to study medicine. With this object he was
entered as a student at Grenople School OF
Medicine as a woman, and to all outward
appearances was one.
and othing in the shape of a mustache or
whiskers was to be observed. In every way
he comported himself as q female, and
seemed quite at ease in the character he as
s'.med. The only thing which might have
betrs yed him. perhaps, was a slight sus-
picion of the masculine in his voice This.
however. was scarcely sufficient to attract
special notice.
The young man has been married, and as
a husband he has already become acquaint-
ed with the hardshlps of the rougher SEX
for, sad to relate, he is registered for mil
ftary service in 1895.
