oh, the sports of jolly winter! They are
with us in bunch;
We're so busy with enjoyment that We
haven't time for lunch!
First it's fill the furnace UP and next it's
stop a 'chink
And then it's thaw the water pipes and
take another drink.
The wee sma' hours will find us at our
merrymaking still,
For the furnace eats 10th day and night
and never minds the bill.
So smash the parlor furniture and stoke
till early dawn,
And we'll burn the grand piano when the
furniture Is gore.
The old thermometer has struck; it's done
in days like these.
Well wrap it up in blankets so the mer
curry won't freeze.
Well fill the furnace up again, and next
We'll stop cbink
And then Wen thaw the water pipes and
take another drink.

from one of the apartment rooms in the

and he is only thirteen years old.
The police department was informed of
the matter this week and young O'Brier
had talk with Marshal Trickey. He
stoutly denied any knowledge of the
money and was allowed to go home
again. The Marshal visited the school
where the boy attended and learned from
his teacher that he had been bringing tc
school a great deal of fancy stationery,
forty cent candy, ETC., for a day or two.
The Marshal also learned that the boy
had been taking his friends to the theatre,
ETC.. treating them to ice cream, and
having a good time generally. Then
there was a second talk with the boy and
the Marshal succeeded in causing him to
confess that he had had $40 in six one
dollar and two dollar bills These were
the bills that were lost at the Columbian.
The boy was in court yesterday morning,
but his case was continued till today.

Mr.. Holland was like Mr.. George W. Beale,
had crew of men who did certain kinds
of work. They managed the shop just
the same as if an independent establish
ment, except that they did all the work
for the company. Mr.. Hollands crew

Therefore for 40 years Mr.. Holland had
charge of the brass work for that estab-
lishment, and was of course good deal
of an expert in brass.

Commandery. He leaves a widow, two

THE GRAPHIC is informed upon what we believe to be entirely reli- able authority that the average clear profit on ton of cotton seed to the cotton seed oil manufacturer is $5 per ton. From the same au- thority we learn that the Pine Bluff Oil Mil from September 27, 1894, to June 27, 1895, bought and manufac- tured into oil and cake 15,000 tons of cotton seed. With profit of $5 per ton, this makes the profits of the Pine Bluff Oil Mill for a period of nine months aggregate $75, ,0O0,

LAST year a cotton oil mill :,

LAST year cotton oil mill was built in a Southern city at a cost of $60,00 The very first year tne mill was in operation it's profits paid for the plant, in addition to which dividend of b per cent. was declared on the capital invested. This was last year when the cotton crop was over 9,O00,00O bales, and the price Of $6 per ton was raid for cotton seed. This year the cotton crop is estimated at 100000 bales, and yet the poor cotton seed oil trust can't afford to pay over $5 per ton for cotton seed.

their seed to enrich their soil, thereby reaping richer and more abundant harvest in the future. At the present price cotton seed is worth more for fertilizing purposes than at the oil mills, and if the farmers will refuse to accept the un- precedent ted low price fixed by the mills this season, they may be able to force the trust to pay higher prices before the season closes. Cot ton seed will be scarce this year, and the mills are bound to buy the crop or else suspend operations. There fore. if the farmers will act inde- pendently of the trust, and hold their crop for higher prices, they may yet be able to force the Arkan- sas wing of the great monopoly to pay them the value of their cotton seed.

Legitimate Journalism.

To give proper publicity to crime is not only legitimate journalistic function, but a public duty. Crime is not a private matter. It is an offence against society, and its ex- posture, as well as it's punishment, is duty to society. So far from ha ing any deleterious effect, we believe publicity has a deterrent influence, and hence serves a useful public end On the criminally in clined mind fear of exposure is fear of punishment. In public affairs nothing is more conductive to hon. esty and purity than the vigilance of a free press in watching the doings of public officials and fear lessly exposing corruption and wrongdoing, IE our courts there can be no star-chamber tyranny when all proceedings are under the eyes of watchful reporters. The value of the aid rendered the police and posecuting authorities by news papers is universally recognized and cannot be overestimated.
