VICTOR HUGO

Describes the Fate OF the world Hanging
ON the Nod of Peasant.
In his wonderful sketch Of the battle
OF Waterloo, drawn with touches as bold
and masterful as the crayon strokes In
one OF Michael Angeles cartoons, Victor
Hugo describes the fate Of the world as
hanging on the nod Of peasant. When
Napolean was examining the ground on
which the English forces were awaiting
his attack, he searched every spot care
fully with his glass, but failed to discover
the sunken road of Chain, which did not
make 90 much as ripple on the hillside
90 completely was IL hidddn from view
Turning to the guide, peasant of the
neighborhood, he asked If there was any
obstacle to the advance Of cavalry. The
guide shook his head. The cavalry were
ordered TO charge. They did 80, and
Hugo says that 1000 horses and / 800
men were buried in the sunken road.
This he declares to be the beginning Of
the long list of disasters which determined
the fate OF Napolean at Waterloo. Had
the guide nodded instead of shaking his
head, the cavalry might have been or.
dered forward by another route, and the
fortune of the French emperor and the
history of the world might have been
changed. AS though, however, to coun.
terbalance this, the same writer says that
had the little cowboy who acted as guide
10 Blucher advised him to debouche from
the forest above Frischemont, rather
than below Planchenoit, the shaping of
tho Nineteenth century might have been
different. Both incidents are probably
apocryphal, for only one authority, and
he by heresay, speaks of the Butcher
and the existence of the sunken
road of Chain is disputed by several,
who boldly assert that there was no such
road at the point indicated; but either
is significant, ms showing by
what trhes the course of history is de-
flected. Times.

illness, and cure such ills as are liable to
come upon all in everyday life. For in

INTRODUCTORY.

Having purchased my brothers s
interest in The TRIBUNE, [ succeed
him as editor. I deem it sufficient
to say that the policy of the
paper remains unchanged. l have
spent the last four years in other
countries, convincing myself that
Arkansas is without Il peer, conse-
quently my whole soul shall be
emerged in the interest of it, and
especially that OF Carroll county.
While | am a novice in the newspa-
per business, yet with the able
assistance Of B. B. Eslinger, pre-
dict for The TRIBUNE .hc same
hearty support that it has hereto
fore received from the hands of the
good people of the country.
The people Of Arkansas have
more reasons to be proud of them
selves now than ever before. The
financial stringency that has in
vaded the whole country during
the year 1898 was less felt here
than amy other place within my
knowledge. The cause of this is
obvious. The country is selt-sup-
porting with an abundance to
spare. Indeed it has taught the
people Il lesson in economy by
which they are prosnering.
The advantages of our country
shall have due notice by THE TRIB-
UNE and nothing left unsaid that
will be conducive to it's welfare.
Last but not least the interests
of our already prosperous little
city of Green Forest shall be guard
cd with care.
In making my appearance before
the reading public my highest am
bition shall be to merit the hearty
cooperation of all.
Respectfully,
A. j. RUSSELL.

The United States WAS no

The United States was no more
unfortunate last year than the conn
tries Of Europe. The business de-
preston extended all over the
civilized world and the commerce
OF all nations suffered to some ex-
tent. According to the London
cablegrams, the foreign trade of
Great Britain has fallen off more
than $l00,000,000 as compared
with last years figures. The
shrInkage is greatest in imports,
but it amounts to about $50, 900, 900
in exports. The falling off in sales
reduces prices and profits there as
here. 1t cuts down wages and
throws men out of employment
England is buying less now than
ordinarily, not because her crops
are larger or better than usual or
because her needs are less from any
cause, but principally for the same
reason that has caused IL reduction
in this country's foreign purchases

SIGNALING BY WATER
The Method of Transmitting Sounds Sue
 cessfuIIy Tested in England.

A very interesting test of a new method of signaling through water has been made in England, says the Pitts burgh Dspatch. The system is the in- vention of Capt. Neale, and is in- tended for the exchange ot messages and the carrying on of conversation between ships on the sea or on rivers. whether moving or stationary, or be- tween ships or lighthouses and har- bors, forts or piers on the shore. Com munication is effected without any connection whatever between the two objects, except the body of water on which the ships float or the lighthouse stands the water being the sole medium through which the message is trans mitted.
 The system utilizes a we'll known law of acoustics. If musical note in a given key be sounded an object ca pablo of emitting sound in the same key will, under certain conditions, sympathetically respond with a sound similar to that which induced it, it being, of coure, a primary condition that the two objects shall be nominally tuned to unison. Capt. Neale's in- vention is based on this principle, utilizing the high conductivity of water for the transmission of sound. In the recent test the apparatus was mounted on two punts, moored about two-thirds of mile apart, and carry ing transmitter and receiver respec- lively. The transmitter consists of bell about sixteen inches in diameter attached to the lower end of a fram' ing, which is fixed in the side of the punt, at the upper end of which is a crank handle. This handle, worked from the punt, actuates a double-beat hammer, which strikes and sounds a bell submerged about six feet.
 The Morse code is employed, quar- ter turn ct the handle being given for -<ho dnte of tho code and whole rapn- lution for the dashes. The receiving apparatus consists of a pair of metallic drums, about ten inches in diameter, open at one end and fixed mouth to mouth, upon piece of board placed between them. These drums, suspend ed in the water, are connected up with a small battery, and through it with tape-recording instrument. Messages were correctly transmitted and re- corded. The speed of operating was somewhat slow, as the signaling had to be carried on by hand instead of electricity, which will shortly be util ized. The trial, however, was most successful and is said to have dem- onstrated the practical character of the invention and the correctness of the principles upon which it is based.

GREAT AMERICAN RESIGNER.
An Expert Bank Accountant Who Takes
 Frequent Vacation Spells.

Frequent vacation Spells
 Living in a fashionable town within committing distance of New York is gentleman who invariably attracts att tention by his long hair Strangers al- ways conclude that he is nothing less than great lawyer or bank president. When a reporter for the Commercial Advertiser asked his fel1ow-townsmen about him he was told the following story: One day the gentleman, who is one of the best accountants in the metropolis, stepped up to the president of the bank by which he is employed and said he had decided to resign, and that the resignation must go into eff feet immediately. The president was 10th to lose so valuable man and urged him to reconsider the matter. He talked with him for an hour, but to no purpose. The employe, whose skill as mathematician was beyond any thing ever met with by the officials of the bank, has bound to leave the in. stitution, but absolutely refused to give any reason for doing so. The ac- countant left that day and the bank was obliged to get along as best it could without him. Ten days later the cashier was astonishcd on entering the bank to find the accountant hard at work at his old desk. The mathema- tician said good morning, just as he had done every day for years before he resigned, but offered no explanation. The president and cashier let their strange acting employe keep at his work and ask no questions. Three months later the accountant went into the presidents office again and ten dered his resignation. It was accept ed and the man was absent for week or rmore. Then he suddenly returned. The same thing was repeated again and again. Now it is a standing joke in that bank that the accountant has resigned. It is his way of taking vacation. He never stays away more than two weeks.

The superstitinus Turk.

There is no land on earth where more superstitions prevail than that of the unspeakable Turk. Some of them are interesting. If by any chance a sparrow or swallow flies in the window and cir cles three times around the room it is sign that blood relation of some one present is about to die. There are many signs and happenings that are supposed to predict marriage. For in- stance, if horse sneezes when a young girl passes in the street she is positive that her time is nearly come. If her hair becomes unfastened she knows that she will soon be sought for, and
 if she goes to eat a peach and finds it's kernel split she is equally certain that she will soon be welded. -

THE AUTHOR OF "sPARTAcUs." |"

Composed by Elijah Kellogg When Stu
 dent at Andover.
 Talking with correspondent of the Boston Herald Rev Elijah Kellogg, of Harpswell, Me, thus described how he school boys: "Spartacus to the Gladia- tors":
 Ut was while was at Andover," :" said he, smiling as the remembrance of the event came back to him. ''We were required to prepare speeches for our rhetorical exercises, and after each man had spoken he was subjected to criticisms by his fellows-and their comments weren't always so compli- mentary as they were pointed. Then the professor would follow with seri- ous criticism, and he always found faults that needed correcting.
 ''So these speeches came to be looked upon with dread, and at last made up my mind that I'd try to get something so different from anything we had had and so interesting that it would hold their attention too closely for them to think about points on which to criti- else me, and so I would get off free.
 ''Well, wrote 'Spartacus.' When I began it worked just as I had ex- pected. They were so taken by sur prise that they never thought of any thing but the speech. You could have heard pin drop at any time while was speaking, and they did not recover until had finished and had come down to ask for criticism.
 "Then when Prof Payne turned to the students and inquired: What criticism have you to offer, young gen. tlemen?' there wasn't one of them had a word to say, for they were all think ing of the piece and hadn't noticed anything else.
 'Gentlemen,' said the professor, we are not here for theological dis quisitions nor for learned arguments, but these exercises are purely rhetor ical, and, gentlemen, that is rhetoric
 ''Then, turning to me, he remarked; T could criticise you, Kellogg, but I don't know whether it would do you more good or harm, and so, on the whole, think I will say nothing.'
 ''So," added the old gentleman, with chuckle, q escaped criticism"
