rights of citizenship have been &C
corded to them, and they are, there

A BOARD of officers will shortly
be created in the Department OF
the Missouri by general order of
the War Department of the
United States for the purpose OF
considering the preparation of an
e.l. rgency ration, which will CON-
bine the qualities Of wholesomeness
and nutrition and at the same time
be appetizing, keep well and be
portable. Similar boards will be
created in all the departments, in
the hope that out Of multitude Of
counsellors a ration better than the
d-time bareback will be evolved.
Taro flour and banana -four should
be brought to the attention of some
of these boards.

SOME very able arguments are
being made in the Prince Cupid
habeas corpus case and the
Supreme Court, when its decision
is ready, will doubtless present an
exhaustive paper. In the debate
the fundamental laws of three
countries came into evidence pro-
minently. British and American
citations have been numerous and
the Hawaiian constitution has been
probed to the very depths.

Some time or other away back in
the course of time, the idea got into the
heads of the human family that it was
injurious to eat just before going to
bed. This peculiar and unnatural whim
has caused many sleopless night and
many weary day. Just how it ever
obtained its general standing among
intelligent people might be an interest
ing study for some one who likes to
delve after mysteries. AS a matter of
fact, going to bed hungry is about the
most foolish thing that a sensible per-
son can be guilty Of. To he sure, one
should not eat heartily of indigestible
food, but under no circumstances is the
craving for something to eat to be de-
MED. Delicate persons especially those
who have little appetite, and who never
eat heartily, are frequently kept awake
and pass sleepless nights on account of
the demands of the stomach for some
thing to work on. The digestive proc.
esses continue during sleep and indeed
are carried Oh in the best possible man
ner at this time, there being no other
forces at work to draw the vitality from
what is for the moment its most impor-
tant business 1t would be well if every
family made some provision for this
need and could keep ever ready milk,
hot or cold, or a cup of broth or hot
soup. says the New York Ledger.

The value of cold water douches to
the entire frame of workers is seldom

nervous centers are unhinged from

Press the Handle:
the Rod Curls

Do you use hair-curlers We
will assume that you do, are not sat
isfied with the one you are using,
and that you would be pleased
to learn of something better.
We have an excellent assert
ment of Hair-curlers. Some of the
old kind have come vastly improved
in style and usefulness. Some have
dainty bone handles, some wood and
some all metal.
An ingenious Yankee has hit
upon plan to obviate the tiresome
turning of the irons. The Auto
matte Curler has a devise requiring
simply the pressure of the handles to
cause the rod to turn automatically
and curl the hair. 1t is done so
quickly one heating is sufficient to
curl the hair. By the turning of
clasp the rod will revolve in the
opposite direction and it's all done
in a minute, too.
Let us show you these Curriers'.

The fire started shortly after o'clock in
the washroom near the engine room Of
No. mill and within an hour after the
blaze was discovered the flames were

could be seen In Providence
The size of the fire at once became ap.

was almost Immediately asked Of Bristol.
Fall River and Providence The scene
when these out-oftown companies arrived
was a thrilling one, and the whole of the
southern part of the little town OF Warren
was one seethiDg mass OF flames. which
were threatening not only tho adjoining
tenement houses OF the company, but even
the business part OF the town.
Almost Immediately after the arrival of
the Providence companies trouble was
found with the supply Of water, and the
combined department worked under great
disadvantage.
Many Thrown Out OF Employment.
The mill In which the fire started was
built 25 years ago, but the other two were
comparatively recent in construction. and
all these were fve.story brick structures
each 200 feet In length and contained In
all 81 900 spindes. the care OF which gave
employment to 1900 operatives. all Of
whom will be thrown out OF employment
Immediately upon the discovery OF the
fire the sprinklers were turned on In all
three of the mills, but the fire workin 2

In speaking OF the equipment, Mr.. Bar
ton said the three mills contained AZ, 900
spindles, divided up between the three
mills approximately as follows: Fourteen
thousand in the old mill, %, 900 in mill
No. 2, and 80, 900 in mill No. 3. There
are In ell 1000 looms, and the mule room
was one OF the finest i'm the country.
The machinery was operated by 1900

THE PRIZE FIGHTERS.
The Militia Will BE Called Out If
Necessary.

AToRA, ]. T., Ochl. The Choctaws here
are sanguine that the Council which
meets at Tuskahoma, next Monday, Will
pass a bill similar to the one passed n
the Texas Legislature. Governor Cara
ner is full blooded Choctaw Indian,
and his opposition to the fight, ii -
said, will rival even that of Goyeracr
Culberson. The statutes of Arkansas of
1854 are in force in this county, and
they are silent so far as they pertain to
priZe-fig ghting. and there is nothing in
the federal statute books which would
warrant the marshal to take hand 10
prevent the fight. The Attorney Gen
eral has signified his willingness TO call
out the militia to the assistance of the
Choctaw tribe, II requested TO do SO. 1t
is believed the principal chief has the
authority to call upon the United States
government 10 prevent the fight N the
absence of law prohibiting ii on the
statute books OF the Choctaw Nation.
Unless the bill is passed there Is moth
ing here to prevent the mill being pulled
of. IL it were possible for the Florida
Athletic Club TO get permission OF the
Council, then the federal authorities
would not Interfere, even il requested to
do so by Governor Gardner. A represen-
tative of Dan Stuart has been here aud
the general impression is that an attempt
will be made TO secure place two miles
below here on Boggy Greek for the scene
OF the contest. II is about three hours

cient lumber can be secuyod to build an
