THE FAMOUS EDDY FAMILY.
These Celebrated Acrobats q Feature Of
Ringing Bros. Circus.


The characteristic which disting-
cuisines Ringing Bros Worlds Great
est Shows from all others is the fact
that no feature is too costly and no

of its kind. In view of this notable
policy IL is not surprising that Ringing

EARLY LIFE OF PAUL JONES.
He Came to Amerfca to Inherit an Estate
 In Virginia.

He Game to America to Inherit an Estate
 In Virginia.
 There is no record of his having at- tended any school except that of the parish of Kirkbean, but he developed truly Scotch passion for reading and writing. He went to sea when 12 years old and made two voyages during bis minority in a shaver, but hating the traffic he left it and the ship too. At 20 he was in command of a fine brigantine. About this time occurred what he calls, in letter to Robert Morris, "a great misfortune. ,, adding, T am under no concern whatever that this or any other circumstance of my past life will sink me in your opinion. The trouble was a threatened criminal prosecution for having had carpenter fogged, which was the usnal mode of punishment in those days. The matter was inyestigat- ed, and Paul Jones was fully acquitted.
 It is worthy of remark that the mag istrate who inquired into that matter notes that Paul Jones expressed great sorrow for having had the man logged, although the charge of cruelty was fully disproved. He returned to Scotland once after this, and although affectionately received by his own family his friends and neighbors seem to have treated him coldly The smart from this injustice turned the indifference he felt for his native land into hatred. and ever after he considered himself quite free from any responsibility for having been born and having spent the first 12 years Of his life in so inhospitable country.
 In his twenty seventh year a great and fortunate change occurred to him. His brother William, who had emigrat- ed to Virginia and died there, left him an estate. There is no doubt that Paul Jones was often afterward in want of ready money, but it must be remem- bered that everybody was in want of ready money in the eighteenth century. Certain it is. from his papers preserved at Washington. that he might be oonsid- cred at the beginning of the war man of independent fortune.
 The two years of his life in Virginia are obscure. as might be expected from a man living the life of a provincial country gentleman. which the records concerning him prove. At the outbreak of war with the mother country Paul Jones hastened to Philadelphia, and through Ms. Joseph Hewes. membex of congress from North Carolina, got his commission as senior first lieutenant in the infant navy of the colonies. It was then he made tbe acquaintance of Robert Morris to whom he felt a pas sionate gratitude and affection, and whom he named as sole executor in his will, Mir. Hewes being then dead Miss Molly Elliot Seawell in Century.

Royal Baking Powder is the purest and highest in strength of any of the baking powders, and hence makes more, finer and better food. These are the official lasts as set forth by the U. $. Government and the various State Chemists reports. Of course great efforts will be made by those interested in the sale of the cheaper made, alum powders, to continue their sale where consumers have made up their minds to have the Royal and call for it at their grocers. The Royal Powder is so much supe- rior to all the orher preparations for quick raising, that it will amply re- pay house-keepefs to use the neces- sary persistency to procure it in spite of all objections.

Famous Words.

One of the greatest physicians in America said to lady patient the other day: If you can keep your bowels active you will never need my services"
 Constipation is one of the most danger ous complaints. It creates disordered liver and then follow sick-headaches, bit- iousness, loss of appetite, etc.
 A physician would first prescribe RamOn's Tonic Liver Pill to open the bowels and clean out all the poisonous bile. He would then give you RamOn's Tonic Pellets for purifying the blood, stimulating the appetite, and strengthening the system. The two medicines would cure you completely and make you feel better than you have felt for years. Ask your drug gist for R amOn's Tonic Liver Pills. They cost 25c. box, and you get with them a box of Pellets free.

 Don't you think it about time for Mabel to consider the subject of matri- mony?" he asked hesitatingly.
 "Oh, there Is plenty of time, replied his wife. Mabel is very ambitious. you know. and she is used to certain so called luxuries that she would dislike to give up"
 "Well, frankly. think she is work ing too hard. D
 ''Oh, no she isn't. It will do her good. And since she won that case iA the supreme court her income has been steadily increasing. If she continues to do as well in her profession. she may be ablo to think of marriage in a year or SO You see, things have changed since we were married '

 ''Then a girls beauty, temperament and accomplishments had more to do with her matrimonial chances, but it is very different now, very different in- deed Mabel is not yet the prize that ] wish her to be. and I doubt If she could be sure of getting the kind of husband that desire her to have.

DKSGRAGE TO 4RKANSAS

4 DISGRAGE TO ARRANSAS.
 Arkansas Governor spat in the face of one of the members of the Legislature, last Sunday, and the Represen tative returned the com pliment. The Governor then drew his pistol, which he had in conven- tent place, and had to be disarmed to prevent murder. Why he carried pistol in violation of the law he did not choose to tell, but his actions indicated that he had murder in his heart.
 Is that the kind of man to be Gov ernor of the great State of Arkan= sas? If the world looks on in disgust at such brutal scenes in her capital, she has only her voters to thank. If men who vote will not take the pains to vote for decent men, but, instead, vote for bullies and bloats who will trample on the laws they are sworn to enforce, the people must take the consequences. This disgrace will not be the last of the kind until men put principle above party. No pioidHc Hdl, Ho indu WHO lS Ao6 d decent man in society, no man who is not known to be an unswerving supporter of the law, should be elected to office. The man who does not control himself, how can he hope to rightly govern others?
 The above is from the columns oi the San Antonio (Tex.) Methodist, of which MT Claude McCorkle, for merly foreman of the GRAPHIC and well known in newspaper circles throughout Arkansas, is editor. As former citizen of Arkansas. MT. MeCorkle is authorized to speak, and his words are not without weight.

TIE Pine Bluff dailies both in dulpe in impeachment talk when dis cussiny the Clarke-Jones episode. The average Jefferson county man declines to forget that Gov. Clarke once roasted the pothouse politicians of that coun ty.-Helena World.
 The people of Pine Bluff, except ing two or three editors, are now all good Clarke men. Little Rock Press
 The GRAPHIC has never demanded the impeachment of Gov Clarke, nor are we aware that any other Pine Bluff newspaper has done so The Governor can only be impeached for mal- -feaSance or non-feasance in office, and cannot be im- peached for his private conduct. The GRAPHIC has too intimate an ac- ouain tanee with the law to demand that which cannot be done.
 As to the people of Pine Blnff be- ing good Clarke men there is not a citizen of Jefferson county who does not know this statement to be abso- lutely untrue. When Mir. Clarke was a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Attorney General he did not receive the vote of a single township in Jefferson countY;neither did he receive solitary vote in his race for nomination for Governor. The people of Jefferson county are too brave and manly to lick the hand that smote them.
 But it is little peculiar at this time to see the Press fawning at the feet of the Governor. It w.ll be re- membered that during the last cam paign Mr. Clarke denounced the Press as Populistic newspaper, and tLe Governor came as near telling the truth then as he ever did at any time. If the Press had any manli. ness or independence about it, it would decline sto bend the preg- nant hinges of the knee that thrift might follow fawning. As to the Helena World, published at the home of Gov. Clarke, it has thoroughly re pudiated the Governors conduct, and being the honorable and fearless newspaper that it is, it could not do aught else, Ii is only the syco- plants and cowardly cuckoos that cringe and lawn at the feet of the tyrant of Arkansas, who has brought shame and disgrace upon our be- loved State.
