Texarkana Raised Almonds.

This morning the editor ate
Texarkana raised almonds,
and they were as good as
those raised in the tropics, ard
which are shipped in here and sold.
The nuts came from tree on Mr..
Henry Sins place, on Maple street,
and he accidentally found out that
il bore almonds. Some years ago
q or 81 he bought and planted the
tree for "choice plum, and for
two or three years past he has no.
ticed that the supposed fruit all
dried up, and he was about to cut
the tree down, when one of the dry
pods was accidentally opened and
it was found to be bearing almonds.
Mr.. Sins will now carefully nurture
the tree and see how many nuts he
can get from it. The tree resem-
bles plum very much, IN every
way.
Now, let others go into the al
mond raising business; this, with
pecans, would pay well.

terday from Marshall Texas, and
informed the reporter of this paper
that he was in a hotel at Marshall,
Texas, the night before, aud awoke
to find the building on fire and the
flames so close to him, that he had
no time to think, but that he must
act to save his life. He had put
his money and valuables under his
pillow, and when he jumped up he
had only time to secure his wearing
apparel and jump through the win
dow. He reports that a woman
was burnt up in the building; he
could not say what her name was,
The building was the one called the
Railroad Eating House, near the

Poor Indeedl

There are degrees and kinds of
poverty, just as there are diff
ferences of opinion among those
who compute and measure poverty
and riches by different standards
Some men deem themselves poor
because they are less rich than
others, again there are compara-
lively poor people who are satisfied
with competence There is a
kind of poverty for which no amount
of wealth can compensate, namely,
a poverty of bodrly stamina, eviuced
by nervousness and a arrangement
of the functions of digestion, bilious
secretion and the bowels. To restore
yigor upon a permanent basis there
IS one remedy that fully covers the
requirements, fills the bill, and
this is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
BY restoring digestion, giving a
healthful impulse to the action of
the bowels aud liver and tran
QUILTING the nerves, it fulflls the

tion of strength by the system. 1t

matism.

BIG CONTRACT LET
And Deep Water Promised for 100000,
So It Is Reported.

So 1t is Reported.
ROCKFORD, Sept. l2.-Special.-
From a private, but authentic
source, il was learned today that q
contract had been let to a New
York firm, in which the firm
agrees to get and maintain deep
water for the sum of 100000
at Arkansas Pass. The con-
ditions which exist today at the
Pass are about as follows: When
the work was first commenced, the
plans and specifications of the en-
gineers required first and para
mount that the jetty should be
built as rapidly as possible to en-
able the contracted channel thus
formed to at once scour the accum-
ulation Of sand which formed the
bar, Work at the Pass was con-
tinually procrastinated and the
warnings of the engineers have at
last become true. There is less
water over the bar now than when
the work was first commenced.
The jetty as now built extends
from near the southeastern part
of st. Joseph island to deep water
on the gulf side Of the bar. The
water on the inside Of the bar is
quite deep being nearly thirty feet
and Swallowing very rapidly to-
wards the crest. The current car
rying the sand in suspension con-
tinually scoops the inside deeper
and precipitates the sand on top
Of the bar, instead of carrying it
into the gulf which would not
have happened il the jetty had
been built rapidly thus allowing
the scour to take place at the crest
Of the bar and not allowing time
for the to rapid deepening of the
inside edge of the bar. The propo-
sition now is to dredge the crest al
lowing an even current and chan
mel and probably second jetty to
more confine the current.
