Trade and small Coin.

An interesting feature in business
is the fact that its activity on
the one hand or it's dizziness on the
other is indicated by the stock of sub
sidiary silver Qess than 81 in the
Treasury. When trade diminishes the
stock increases, but when the former
becomes active the latter diminishes,
because it is wanted for circulation.
For instance, in 1892, when the pres
sure set i'll, the treasury had about ten
millions of such coin, but it gradually
increashd to nearly seventeen millions.
On the other hand, just as soon as
trade improved, the stock was reduced,
and it is now but little more than
fourteen and half millions Small
coin is wanted by retailers just in pro-
portion to the amount of their traffic.

STRANGE SIGHT.
Annexation Placards Posted All Over
the CITY of 81. Johns N. +.

The inhabitants of ST. Johns awoke one
morning to find the city placarded with large
bills calling upon the people to agitate for
the annexation of Newfoundland to the
United States. The placards are unsigned,
but it is believed they owe their origin to
faction of radical politicians in the city
who have been avowing annexationist
principles for years past. 1t Is under
stood that club whose object will be the
furtherance of the annexation movement is
formed, and that members of the organza-
ton will begin the work of popular agitation
in day or two.
The city is in a ferment of excitement over
the matter. Gov. O'Brien is very indignant
because of the appearance of the placards,
and the officers Of the British cruiser Tour
maline, in port here, are making great hub
bub about what they denounce as 'the insult
to Queen Victoria" thus manifested.

A quarter of century ago fever
patients were treated in a way that at
present seems little less than barbar-
ous They could get no water either
by entreaty or strategy, and were FREE
quently almost starved, on the theory
that fever must never be fed. Now
a-days eminent medical men give fever
patients eggs, chops, beef and other
articles In short, they feed them on
the dishes they most liked when in
health. Enormous quantities of water
are given and baths as well, with II
much larger percentage of recoveries.

The Greatest rIedical Discovery

KENNEDY'S
Medical Discovery.
DONALD KENNEDY, or ROXBURY, MASS,

Has discovered in one of our common
pasture weeds a remedy that cures every
kind of Humor, from the worst Scrofula
down to common pimple.
He has tried it in over eleven hundred
cases, and never failed except in two cases
(both thunder humor). He has now in
his possession over two hundred certif-
Gates of its value, all within twenty miles
OF Boston. Send postal card for book.
A benefit is always experienced from the
first bottle, and perfect cure is warranted
when the right quantity is taken.
When the lungs are affected it causes
shooting pains, like needles passing
through them; the same with the Liver
or Bowels. This is caused by the ducts
being stopped, and always disappears in a
week after taking it. Read the label.
If the stomach is foul or bilious it will
cause squeamish feelings at first.
No change of diet ever necessary. Eat
the best you can get, and enough Of it.

THE ONLY COTTON PICKER.
Invented by a Fort Smith Man and
Patent Issued TO a Fort Smith
Company.

About a year ago Mr. James
Neighbors, of this city, conceived a
plan for cotton picking machine
one that would pick cotton and he
worked diligently to perfect it on
lines entirely different from all
others attempted. Many cotton
picking machines have heretofore
been patented, but none of them
were evel of thoroughly practical
use, as they utterly failed to gather
the staple in manner satisfactory
to the grower, or in a condition to
go directly from the field to the
gin. This difficulty was sought to
be overcome by Mr., Neighbors, and
after many veXatious delays and
discouragements, he today has the
proud satisfaction of knowing that
his invention has received the en-
dorsement Of the United States
Patent Office and patent issued
therefor. The patent was issued to
George Sengel, Capt. John Mat
thews, Frank Nichols and James
Neighbors jointly, all citizens of
Fort Smith and widely known ds
men Of progressive spirit and en-
terprise. 1t is the intention Of the
named to arrange at
once for the manufacture of these
machines and be ready to supply
the cotton belt with them when the
cotton picking season opens. The
labor of gathering cotton will be
completely revolutionized by the
of the new invention,
and our people can view with no
little pleasure the prospect for
another big manufacturing plant in
Fort Smith.
The Developer joins the people in
hearty congratulations to Mr.,
Neighbors and the gentlemen as
sociated with him on the issuance
of the patent for the only perfect
cotton picking machine ever invent
ed, and all hope that It may prove
a highly remunerative investment
for them, -[Developer,

BOB PITTS SLAYER.

The murderer OF Bob Pitts has
not yet been apprehended, Sheriff
Dlllard came back to the city on
Sunday, with clue, and left again
this morning with Constable Joe
Vinson, and will make an arrest if
the party whom they now suspicion
has not skipped the country. We
learn that a white man living near
Pitts, was angered at HIM a short
time ago, and was heard TO say
that Bob Pitts had stolen a yearl-
ing calf from him, and that If he
did not return it, he would kil) him,
This would be strong circumstantial
evidence against this mao, and he
would have TO prove 4 strong alabi
to get out of this murder. He may
be ever so innocent and yet If wit
nesses turn up against him in court
and swear he made such remarks
he will be held for the murder unless
he shows by equally good witnesses
that he was elsewhere when the
fatal and murderous bullet was fred
from the rife, There may be some
excuse for shooting a man in an en-
counter or under a passion, but
there is nothing iustidable in lying
in wait and killing a man from an
ambush, The guilty man should be
hunted down and punished
