"Spick" Brown, scion of the
house of Brown, so conspicuous in
the criminal annals of Franklin

young negro equally trifling and
worthless, were last Thursday ar
rested at Chanute for pocket picking
The twain touched" Michael
Stipp, veteran who was attending
the reunion. for a valuable gold
watch. Stipp detected the negroes
in ,he theft and sounded an alarm
when the "coons" broke away. A
policeman gave chase, capturing
/ Brown and Shredder and recovering
the watch. Both were Immediately
arraigned in justice court, tried and
found guilty and sentenced to sixty
days in Jail.
There are now three OF the Browns

some member of it is in trouble con-
tinually. "Spick" is bad negroe

points, while the distant months were
only 2dS points up. July closed with ~
hid In New Orleans. white the highest
oher in New York was 7.22. Since last
Friday the July option has advanced
somsthing over &c at New Orlelns, but
spo. values have mode no change
The advance in the Southern market
todav was N the face of an extremely
Light speculative business ana dull condi-
tons generally. Total sales were only
700 bales. The bulls say that If values
can be 50 well maintained when there Is
no buying, any sudden increase in the de-
nand would send the summer months sky
high, They potnt to stocks of only 50 coo
bales In presses at New orleans and CON
tend tia: by the LIST OF July the total will
not be over S5oog and that such an umo mt
could he easily controlled, thus placlng
the seller Of July deliveries In a very dan

States with Indian Names.

Our State got its name before the
revolution, or it would have been
named Oglethorpe. After the revolu-
ton was over and peace was made 1t
was proposed to change Its name, but
1t did not carry. Several of the States
had been named for kings and queens,
and they were not changed. Since then
most of the new States have been
named for Indian tribes, and that is
about all the poor Indian got as he
moved toward the setting sun. He left
his name behind him. Seventeen of
the new States have Indian names,
and it is curious fact that only one
State bears the name of any great man
of our country. and that is the State Of
| Washington. One other State chose the
name of Franklin and kept 1t for some
time. but for some reason II didn't stick
and was changed to Tennessee. But
the great man has twenty-four coun-
ties named for him in twenty four diff
ferent States. don't see why some
of the new States that came in after
the revolution were not named for
Adams and Jefferson and Monroe and
Madison and Patrick Henry and other
fathers of liberty. But suppose that
even these great men had their enc
mics in Congress, and they compro
missed on the Indians. Partisan poll
tics had much to do with it.-Atlants
Constitution.

Tho Wrong Log.

There is an enterprising Liverpool
tailor who has never been known TO ac-
knowledge that he didn't have anything
a possible customer might ask for.
One day customer entered the shop
and asked IL he had any trousers made
especially for one legged men.
Certainly" replied the merchant.
"What kind do you WANT"
Dress trousers, said the man. "The
best you've got. :"
Hurrying into the rear of the store,
the enterprising merchant snatched up
pair Of trousers and shipped off the
right leg with pair Of scissors. Hastily
turning under the edges, he presented
them to the customer.
That's the kind Iwant. What's the
price?"
lone guinea.
"Well, give me pair with the LEFT
leg off,"
A month later the merchant was pro
nounced convalescent and on the higl
road to recovery. Parsons Weekly.
