THE HOT SPRINGS OF ARKANSAS.
Natures Gift to Mankind.

As an intelligent race, we the peo'
pie of this broad expanse of land,
have cause to offer thanks to the Gre
ator for the bountiful number Of
health and pleasure resorts, which
that great Power has located within
our midsts. OF all the famed places
on the Western Hemisphere that have
felt the influences of such a Divine
Hand, none shine so brilliantly on the
earth's mirrow, as that little spot
among the plne-clad mountains Of the
Ozarks-Hot Springs, Arkansas, 1t
is here that the waters offuse from the
very innermost recesses OF the earth
singing song Of welcome as they
trickle down the sides of the great
hills to those who have sought their
efficacy to Danish away the Ills that
human flesh is heir to.
Fashion also reigns supreme at Hot
Springs, and as for hotels and hotel
accommodations, it is the fourth CITY
in the United States in this respect.
The other prominent health and
pleasure resorts IN the Great South
west that are reached by the rails Of
the Missouri Pacific Railway and
Iron Mountain Route, are San An
tonic, Austin and Laredo, Texas, each
one having its own. distinct virture in
the advancement to longer'life of man
and to higher social scale of the
populace. For copies of elegant il

One Of the earliest pluckiest Of
woman was a Miss Austin, who was a
school teacher in San Francisco, and
taking hor earning she bought a hun

Fresno City in southern California
and planted it to peach, apricot and
nectarine and an extensive vineyard.
Since then she has mostly devoted
herself to the raising Of grapes, aud
her raisiDs are the finest produced in
the state and are demanded IN the
San Francisco market, In the year
OF 1880 her rancho produced 10000
pounds of raisins. She looks after all
the drying and curing, personally.
1t is estimated that her vineyard will
be worth over $4,000. II is much

The Dardanelles.

From the Intee. Ocean.
The Dardanelles.
The Hellespont, or the Strait Of the
Dardanellee, which has been the scene
of so many historical conflicts, is just
now the center Of interest in the
Turkish complications. The strait is
narrow channel connecting the
Aegean Sea with the Sea Of Marmora.
1t is entirely within Turkish territory,
separating Turkey in Europe from
Turkey in Asia, 1t is about forty-fve
miles IN length and is from 800 feet
to four and three-quarters miles in
width. AT one time the passage at
the narrowest point was guarded by
chains. AT the entrance are two cas-
Ties, or forts. which were regarded IS
quite formidable in the old time, but
which amount to nothing as defenses
against modern war ships. AT the
narrow point in the channel are two
other forts, which it is supposed
would make fair defense. There
are in the strait modern gun boats
and torpedos have been placed in the
channel by Che engineers in the SER
vice ct the Turkish government.
The Turkish government has always
maintained that no foreign vessel Of
war should be allowed at any time to
pass through the DsrdsneIles. This
principle was accepted by the five Eu-
ropean powers in the treaty OF Paris,
1t was practically abrogsted in 1870,
but in 1871 the representatives Of the
powers met at London aud on the 18th
of March, in a new treaty signed by
Prussia, Austria, France, England,
Italy, Russia, and Turkey, il was de-
clsrsdi "The principle Of closing the

Dardanelles and the Bosporus as set
down IN the separate treaty OF March
30, 1866, is upheld, as well as the
power Of his imperial majesty, the
Sultan, to open said straits in times Of
peace to the ships Of friendly and al
lied powers, il the execution of the
stipulations in the treaty of Paris
March 80, 1866, should require it."
In this treaty Russia obtained some
concessions as TO fleet in the Black
Sea and made little opposition to the
adoption Of the clause quoted The
teaty Of Berlin reaflirms that clause
OF the treaty OF 1871 referring to the
Dardanelles.
Turkey has always claimed chat as
this channel is entirely within her own
dominions, and as it was really the
gateway to the Ottoman capital, it
was clearly her right to exercise the
closest supervision over it, In ac-
cordance with the recognition Of this
right by the European powers no war
ships are admitted into the strait OK.
cept by the consent of the Sublime
Porte. Ia 1858 the United States
frigate Wabash passed the Dardanel-
les and anchored at Constantinople,
the commander holding that as the
United States was not a party to the
treaty OF Paris this government was
not bound by its stipuations This
was made test case and the vessel
was received in a friendly spirit at
Constantinople. This brought up,
however, puzSling question, because
il the powers that did not sign the
treaty could send war ships into The
Sea OF Marmora and to Oonstanti-
nople, then the very powers that had
guaranteed Turkey in her right TO
control the straits were at a dsadvan-
tage This was settled so far as the
European governmental were concern
ed by the adoption Of the treaty Of
1871,
With this treaty in mind the ques-
ton Of passing war vessels through
the straits becomes a European rather
than a Turkish question. All the
powers signatory TO the treaty OF Ber-
lin are regarded as friendly to Turk
ey, and yet they regard any violation
Of that treaty as an act OF war. II
the gun boats are passed through the
straits conveyed by ships of war and
the forts fire on them, certainly that
Is an act Of war If the Sultan pro-
ceeds to this extreme measure it may
be assumed that he feels that he is
safer with the great powers than in
the hands Of his turbulent people. A
new cause for uneasness as to the
Armenians then presents itself. II
the European powers force a passage
through the Dsrdanelles and are re-
sisted the episode may bs the signal
for brutal butcheries wherever there
are defenseless Christians in Armenia
or other Asistlc provinces. It is pos
sible that the powers have looked for
ward to this and that their movement
looking to the safety Of the Christians
is yelled; and it may be that while
public interest is directed to the OAR
danelles precautions looking to the
protection Of the Christian population
have been made.

Popullsm Not Dead.

The vehemence with which the SER
vile press asserts that ''populism is
head" has had the effect to make
them believe it true themselves. They
sre much like the man who tells q lie
at first in fun, then repeats it SO often
that he thinks after awhile it IS true.
So far from being dead, the following
will show that it is distinctly alive
and kicking;
II has more votes to It's credit than
the democratic party in Minnesota,
Nebraska, Oklahoma, Wyoming, North
Dakota, Nevada, Washington, South
Dakato, Kansas, Colorado, Montana,
Idaho, Oregon and Arizona 1t has
more votes than the republican party
in Arkansas, Louisiana, Alabams, Flor
ida, Texas, Mississippi, Georgia and
North Carolina.
Thus it will be seen that in no less
than % states and territories, or half
the whole number in the United
States, and embracing almost three
fourtbs Of the territory, it is the first
or second party.
With such figures as these before
us, it would seem that it is worse than
folly for any member Of the party to
become discouraged, mnch less think
OF deserving its ranks. American

WoMAN'S DEPARTMENT.

"It we had nothing but the reason
Of men to deal with and that reason
were pure aud uncorrupted, it would
then be a matter Of no great skill or
labor to convince another person OF
common mistakes, or to persuade HIM
to assent to plain and obvious truths.
But alasl Mankind stands wrapped
round in errors, and entrenched In
prejudices; and every one of their
opinions is supported and guarded by
something else besides reason" What
Is prejudiceH-a prepossession-in
jury-prejudice Is an evil that will
cling more tenaciously than bad hsb-
its, it is greater evil, in that, those
who do not possess disagreeable habits
do possess prejudice. Anyone pos
sessing this disqualifying attribute is
hsmpered In all his intentions for
good, it is always an injury to himself
and others in greater or lesser de-
gree, according to his amount Of
prejudice, and hindrance and hand
leap How often do you hear some
one say, Il am not prejudiced in the
least bit against so and so or about
this or that" and at the same time be-
fore they are through with telling
their reasons for not being 80, some
little weak spot will appear in the ex-
PLANTATION, which will convince all
hearers to the contrary. 1t is the
most insiduous and non-recogizable
element ia human nature. How many
epochs of history have had to struggle
and wrench themselves from out this
hide-bound word. Does it not also,
always tell us that all new innovations
what ever they are, no matter to what
great lasting benefits they may be,
are always subjected for a while to
this one great judgement, and then
follows time of breaking down and
altering the sentiment of judgement,

good common sense that it fnally
succumbs This pref ossesslon, first

the old adage is Chat first impressions

these infantite ideas and being
thought Of, and, on so much, they be-
come SO deeply rooted that it requires
heroic treatment to uproot them, and
especially il any period OF time elapse
when no counter actions or sentiments
are brought to bear upon them, it
grows into a regular hydra-headed
monster, who will feroclously and
tenaciously guard against the march
and assistance of advancement and

been the downfall Of plans for i'm

willie Whiteman Is Dead.

DIR. j. b. Wheeler removed the bull
let from Willie Whiteman's head last
week. The operation was performed
at the hospital. 1t was found that the
bullet had split. Half of it rested
Just under the scalp and the other part
was imbedded in the skull but press
ing on the brain and causing the de-
lirum. Some broken pieces OF the
skull were also removed. He died
Friday morning at the hospital. 1t is
the third death in this tragedy. His
death,it appears, was not the result OF
the operation but of pneumonia, that
disease having developed the previous
day. The operation for the bullet gave
every Indication of success, the brain
showing a healthy condition, and il
was hoped that he would recover.
The other boy is in comfortable
condition and it is thought that the
bullet did not penetrate the skull but
is lodged beneath the scalp.
