"No, I'll not drink with you today
boys" said drummer to several com
panions, as they settled down in a
smoking car and passed the bottle
''The fact is, | have quit drinking, I've
swore off,"
whats the matter with you, old
boy ?" sang out one. If you've quit
drinking, something's up. What is
it?"
"Well, boys, will tell you. Yester-

Clark street customer of mine keeps
pawn shop in connection with his
other business l called on him, and
while I was there young man of not
more than 25, wearing threadbare
clothes and looking as hard as if he
b hadn't seen sober day for a month
came in with little package in his
hand. He unWrapped it and handed
it to the pawnbroker, saying Give me
ten cents And, boys, what do you
suppose it was? a pair of baby's
shoes; little things with the buttons
only a trhe soiled, as if they had been
worn only once or twice. Where did
you get these?' asked the pawubroker.
Got em at home, replied the man,
who had an intelligent face and the
manner of gentleman, despite his
sad condition, My wife bought them
for our baby. Give me ten cents for
'em-I want drink You had better
take those shoes back to your wife;
the baby will need them said the
pawnbroker. No, s-she won't because
she's dead She's lying at home now
died last night. AS he said this the
poor fellow broke down, bowed his
head on the showcase and cried like a
child. Boys" SAID the drummer,

never drink another drop."-Ex,

ED: TRIBUNE:
We see that our name occurs in the
Progress in connection with the Norm
al controversy. We were not one of
Mr.. Doxsey's informants, as he has
already virtually Stated in a former
issue.
/ would be painful to have the good
citizens of Green Forest form miscon-
ceptions in regard to our motives.
While we made hasty protest during
the voting. we did not afterwards care
for the result, knowing that Berryville
has heretofore had more than her,share
of Institutes and similar gatherings.
Berryville will get Normal in due
time.
During our short stay down there we
took special notice of the town and
surrounding country and formed the
conclusion that it is yet in its infancy
in point Of development:
Hope that Brother Doxey and Broth
er Burney will draw straws and stop
their controversy.

A CRAVE CHARGE

Tennessee authorities passed through

committed in East Tennessee five wears
ago. The parties who came after him
fully identified him as the man Waot4a
saying that the name Lauderbalk was
an alias, that his true anne is o. p.
Anderson.
1t will he remembered that Mr.

his arrest. few months after Mr. l..
came to Berryville he was married TO
Miss Ida Crume, with whom he seem
ed to live happily up to the time of
his departure to Tennessee to answer
for his crime. He was very Quiet,
unassuming man and had many friends.
During his stay in Berraville he served
one year as recorder.
Since the arrest of Lauderbalk we
have learned from Merchant G.. b.
Grim that it has been known here for
some time that Lauderbalk was going
under an assumed name. Sterling
Bates, residing five miles east of Green
Forest year or 90 ago said he knew
Lauderbalk several years ago, and that
his name had been changed and il IL
Mr.. Grim's recollection that Mr.. Bales
said his right name was Anderson"
One of the authorities who carried
Lauderbalk away saw the murder com

OF murder in the first degree. The
young lady murdered was an ,ex-sweet-
heart of Anderson. Laud eroaik SAYS
he is not the man wanted.

CARROLL COUNTY DOCTORS
HOLD THEIR QUARTERLY MEETING AT cAR-
BOLTON, LAST TUESDAY.
Tri-County Medical Society Organized. Pleas
ant and Profitable Meeting.

A TRIBUNE representative took
a run over to Carrollton Tuesday
to take dinner with the doctors
and make a few notes concerning
the meeting of the Carroll County
Medical Society which was in ses-
sion there. We did not have the
pleasure of being in the meeting
during its deliberations, but we
learned that it was q grand success.
The attendance was fairly good,
and the interest very great. There
were present members as follows:
Ray and Ramsey OF Green Forest,
George and Poynor OF Berryville,
Cate OF Eureka Springs, Cardwcll
and Poynor OF Carrollton and
Moore of Oak Grove. Visitors
present were: Hall and Scott of
Denver, Baker and Watkins of
Carrollton, Ruth and Evans of
Harrison.
The meeting was held in Dr..
Cardwell's elegant new Office where
everything was tastefully and COM
fortably arranged for the occasion.
A number OF important subjects
were enthusiastically discussed
and some rules were adopted rela-
tive to practice in families who
refuse to pay their bills, by furnish
ing each other with Il "black-list"
OF those who do not make salts
factory settlements, at least once
year. This, however, does not ap-
ply to objects of charity. The
NJ. DIS certainly cannot be cen
sured for making move of this
kind as they undoubtedly need
protection against persons who
are continually beating their bills.
1t will therefore be to the inter
est OF all delinquents to see that
they are no: "black-listed." The
laborer is worthy of his hire.
The paper by DR.. Card we'll on the
"Review of the Medical Active
ments of the Past Half Century"
was pronounced by all an able
document.
The society and visitors were
given a banquet by Drs. Poynor
and Cardweil at the Crockett Hotel,
where all Jared sumptously. The
table was we'll laden with good
things to eat, and u hungry set of
physicians certainly made the best
OF the very rare opportunity.
The Crockett Hotel is noted tor its
we'll supplied table.
A Tri-County Medical Society
WAS organized. 1t will be compos-
cd OF the doctors Of Carroll, Boone
aud Newton counties, 1t will
meet semi-annually, and its first
meeting will be held in Green
Forest, the End Tuesday in May,
next year. Fl. L. Routh was elect
ed president and W. G. Cardwell
secretary of this association.
The next meeting OF the Carroll
County Medical Society will be
held in Berryviile, 3rd of Decem-

in question has proven beneficial in so
large a majority of cases that nine-tenths
of the people who are sufficiently anxious
to call for a sample find so much relief
that they continue the products use and

a very large demand has been created.
The Shakers have a long record OF sue

Importance. The younger trees with small
trunks, as well as the nursery stock, have
made equally as good growth. There are
those who believe that the future bearing
orange trees of this section will come
from the younger stocks. These people
have misgivings concerning the healthful-
ness of the trees which may come from the
old roots. Time alone Will determine the
question.
But there are reasons for belleveing that
the younger trees are preferable. or,
rather that the sprouts from the old roots
are to be cut down before they can reach
maturity. In most of the groves the old
trees have been left standing like ghosts
OF a departed glory. The young sprouts
coming from the roots at the collar of
these trees are fast hiding the old trunks
and stretching upward in an effort to
hide me branches. But the borer has
made an attack upon the dead wood,
and has perforated il with thou

THE NEW YORK A FIREBUG.
Shot From the Cruiser Said TO Have
Caused a Cotton Blaze.
From the New YORK Xnrld

Boston, Sept. u.-Can a 6-pound gun
throw a burning wad a distance of two
or three hundred yards and leave enough
fire in the missile to start a blaze
wherever it may fall? State Fire Mar
shall WhtcOmb says II can, and he
charges the United States cruiser New
York with incendiarism. The cruiser
is not now where he can make formal
arrest, but the fire marshal proposes
to force Uncle Sans marines to prove
that the gun was not the culprit.
The blaze occurred a week ago, Just
fifteen minutes after the New York had
fired a salute from her 6-pound bow bat
terry. on the Boston and Albany dock
was a pile of cotton at the end nearest
the cruiser, The cruisers bow was
turned towards the dock and a strong
wind was blowing just in the right d.
rection to carry any wadding from her
guns directly over to this Undertook
upon the wharf.
This combination gives plausibility to
the theory that the guns of the New
York were responsible in some way for
the blaze, otherwise there is no explana-
ton of the cause of the fire, which
burned up more than $4,000 worth of
property.

HIS CERTIFICATE WOULDN'T GO.
One of the Many odd Dicks tae OrdI-
nary Has to Deal With.

Early yesterday morning a colored man
named Fortune Duncan called at the or
dinarys Office for a marriage license. Az
ter receiving it he hesitated about paying
for it. He finally placed the amount
upon Mr.. Keilbaeh's desk and in a nerv-
Gus and wavering voice jabbered out:
Boss. here's paper l wants TO get some
understanding bout an eff you'll look at an
please to 'splain to me wat he mean by
dat; de gemman who gee 'em to me, say
dat any publican magistray will married

Use 10 pay him seventy-five cent, he
cOmmenin' me to som cOlOred magiStry.
/ forget he name, but doan no what TO
tlnk bout EN-, please, sir, gem me some
instruc ment."
1t CHANGED that Fortune had misplaced
the certificate IN one of his pockets, and
after grunting and searching he brought
the much priced document and in a self
satisfied manner laid IL on the clerks
desk. 1t read as follows:
1S64-1S94. Silver Certificate. Issued in
celebration of twenty-five years success
in the cigar and tobacco business in APP
probation of past patronage and as an In
centive to four shares in our prosperity.
Keep this certificate in a safe place, ten
Of them enttle you to set of silverware.
Full directions on the reserve side.
The certificate had a heavy silver like
border around il and on the reverse side
appeared an advertisement in reference
to the silverware offered on cetrain condi-
tions. In fact, it had the appearance of
an old marriage blank and greatly re-
sembled some legal document. This el-
IDENTIFY deceived old Fortune.
Upon examining the paper to help the
joke along the clerk smilingly handed ii
to Recorder Wilson who CHANGED to be In
the Office and referred to him for his legal
opinion. The judge remarked that it was
good, but Fortune understood it differ
ent. He thought his scheme would work
as he had been told and that he would get
his money back that he paid as a fee,
but the clerk told him the paper was right
so far it went, but it wouldn't go far
towards buying a marriage license ana
in consolation of Fortune, they assured
him the party who gave him the license
was playing joke and for that would be
prosecuted to the fullest extent for trifling
with the law of matrimony.
