A Good Citizen Gone.

The following tribute to the mem ory of Dr. ]. H. Pinson, who died at Fl Dorado last week. we take from
 the Union County Tribune, and as the deceased gentleman has many friends in Pine Bluff, we take pleasure in reproducing it as q slight token of respect to one who was held in such high esteem by all who knew him;
 At q few minutes before , o'clock on last night Dr. J H. Pinson, of this city, calmly and peacefully sur rendered his soul to the God who gave it and his spirit winged it's flight to that home not made with hands prepared for those who ad- here to he divine teachings of Holy Writ while sojourning on this earth. He was born in South Carolina i'll 1881 and in 1857 was married to Miss
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1896-12-01

Fannie E. Ducker, of Mississippi. In 1858 he moved to this county and settled, where he has resided since
 He leaves behind a bereayed wife, two sons, one daughter, several rel altiyes and a host of true friends. NO man in Union county has done more for the people. He was philan- thropist, patriot and christian gen tleman and his many acts of kindness and charity will ever live in the mem ory of those among whom he has lived so long. He was sFreasurer of this county for many years and no man in the United States ever per formed more faithfully a public trust than he. He was at all times and under all circumstances q leader ln every move that was for the benefit of mankind and his cool, collected judgment and sound wisdom ever showed him to be Il true gentleman whose counst could be relied on, for his opinions were always i'll keeping with that which was right. Dr. Pinson always did a large practice in his profession and the fact that d man was poor and unable to pay his physician never deprived him of medical aid forat ali times and under all circumstances he ever cheerfully resuond to The calls of the poor, not only furnishing them with bis serv- ices, but the needed medicines as well, when he was fully cognizant of the fact that never dime would he get for the attentions and drugs he ever so cheerfully furnished. Cur town and county, the church, and the peo- pie in Dr. Pinson's death lose q friend whose place can never be filled. It is hard to give this sainted man up but all who know him have the blessed assurance that his soul is only trans planted from this life to that heaven of rest above where he will be found when the Monster. Death, oyertakes us at the pearly gates of heaven, ready to welcome his many true friends in this section as they drop off and go before that Just Judge to give an account for the deeds done i'll the body.

As the wintry winds begin to howl around the corners the full b.ooded cyclists, who ride their wheel the year around are beginning to give some attention to dress matters for the cold weather. Warm but loose fitting clothing is absolutely neces- sary to comfort in cold weather rid ing Most wheelmen and wheelwo- men find it a difficult matter to keep the hands and feet warm in the face of a stiff, cold wind. Bicycle gaunt- let's may be all right in their way, but pair of heavy wooden gloves, which will reach well up the rists seems better \ silk or cotton stock ing under the regular golf hose, with piece of paper fitted between the two stockings is guaranteed to keep out the cold in the most bitter weather.

BICYCLE NOTES.

The lively interest taken in cycling at the different colleges promises we'll for the intercollegiate cycle rae ing for next season. It is now as sured that two days meet will be held next season, and the affair promises to be one of the most inter- esting of the year. Considerable in- door training will be done during the winter.

One of the most valued novelties that will be shown at the coming cycle shows will be drawn sheet steel crank hanger, which is abso- lutely seamless. This device has of course been patented by the Western Wheel Works and it will be used i'll all of their or Crescents. X well known mechanical expert who re- gently examined this new improve menJ, stated that it was without doubt Il work of art. The manufaet- urers have spent thousands of dol lars in the effort to add strength to the frame. The seamless crank hanger will not only add strength and rigidity to the frame but if lends an artistic completeness and sYmetry a the same time.

 ARMED FOR BEAR
l. inc way same countrymen Deem II Necassaay to Come to
 This City.

If seems singular, yet it is q fact, that more eountrymen are arrested with weapons on their persons than are city people who spend their lives i'll the city. When many coun- trymen come to town they seem to think that they are going into a den of iniquity in consequence of which they must go armed and prepared to fight for their lives; hence tkey come in with either pistols girdled around their bodies or else with brass knuekles or Bowie knives in their pockets or hid about in convenient places in their clothing. After they arrive here, and feeling their importance with their arsenals. the least word brings on a quarrel and the eountryman draws his weapon, and this results in his arrest, and he is compelled to pay a heavy fine, which, if he had left his weapon at home, and come to town as q peaceable, law-abiding citizen should, he would never have gotten into difficulty.
 Such cases as the above were be- fore the Police court this morning, when Judge Brown assessed q fine of $50 each against two farmers from Lincolh county. by the names of Cogbill and Bohannon. The men paid Wares Theater visit last night. and after coming down on the street they violated q city ordinance and were arrested and carried to the police station where they were searched. On each of their persons were found n pair of brass knucks. 1 The leass fine for carrying these weapons is $50, so each of the men will be coi..pelled to pay out that sum for their foolishness.
