 With the Sheriffs of the State prop erly organized, as are those of the State of Texas, it will be next tu im- possible for | criminal to escape nr- rest.
 In Texas nil Shemns are required by law to belong to o.an organization similar to the Sheriffs Association of this State, and statistics show that since this organization was per fected arrests of criminals have been largely increased, while crime. in the State of Texas. has deerensed 40 per cent.

G. N. HART, A PROMINENT BUSINESS MAN OF PINE BLUFF, BROUGHT TO
 THE A8YLUM.
HE HAS LOST HIS MIND.
Vice President of the State Epwortl League, and Well Known Over
 the State.
From Tuesday. s Little Rook Democrat.

fFram Tuesday Little Rock Democrat-j
 c. N. Hart, yiee.President of the Arkansas Epworth League, is an in- mate of the State Insane Asylum
 Be was placed in that institution this morning hy friends who brought him CD from Pine Bluff,
 where he has been q leading business man for q number of years.
 His mental alteration brings sor- row to many friends throaebont the State. When the League couyen- tion met in Little Rock June g, 1896, Mr. Hart was one of tue most prominent participants in it's pro eeedings. His tall, striking figure and his vigorous denunciation Of sinfulncss iu all it's forms were noticeable on all occasions. There vas no indication then of the shadow that was so soon to envelop his life He was 3 druggist at Piue Bluff for q number of years, and a sudden reverse some months ago forced him to the wall This prey ed upon his mind and for some time friends have noticed that he was not himself A month or so ago he secured a commission to travel for 2 New Orleans drug house, and is was hoped by those who were watch ing his demeanor that application to bushes would relieve the mental depression that had alarmed his friends They were doomed 10 q sorroBfol disappointment. Satar- day he was stricken with partial paralysis, and this completed the impairment of his mental faculies. Since then he has been under the constant watchfuIness of friends. He is not violent, but AigbtY and irrational. Sometimes he refuses to talk al all, and simply waits, as he says, to feel the power of the Holy Ghost impelliag him to talk before answering any question pro, pounded to him. Dr. Hooper says his recovery is doubtful The un- fortunate nan has a wife and three little children It would be painful indeed toFcview the sorrow and an guish of that little family. They have the sympathy of . generous publice in their sad affliotion.
 When the Enwovth f,eagners of this State vent to Toronto Q few months ago Mr Hart exhibited the
 first pronounced symtoms of in- sanity. Rev. James Thomas, of this city, and Rev. \. c Evans, of Pine
 Bluff, who among others noticed his abstracted manner discussed the aavtsabihig of preventing lis riding on the platforms of trains, H. was
 feared by them that he might fatl under the wheels of q train and be
 killed
 He wia be well cared for al the asylum, nhare itis hoped the rest from business cares may restore his
 mental equiiibriami bat his case is generally regarded as doubtful.

NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
A Positive Cure for Dyspepsia.


 This may read aa though we wore putting 1t little strong because fl is generally thought by tho majority nj people that Dyspepsia in it's chronic form is ineurablc. or practle- ally so. But we have long since shown that dyspepsia is edrable. nor Is fl such difficult matter as it first appears.
 The trouble with dyspcptics is that they are continually dieting, starving themselves, or going to op- posite extremes or else deluglng the already overbnrdened stomach with "bitters, after dinner pills, etc., which invariably increase the difficult ty, even If in some cases they do give slight temporarg' relief Such treatment of the stomach simply makes matters worse. What the stomach wants is rest. Now how eaa tho stomach become rested. re- cnperated and at the san time the body nourished and sustained?
 This is tho great secret and this is also the secret of She uniform success oI Stuort's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is comparatively new remedy, but it's success aud popularity leaves no donbt as to it's merits
 Tine tablets will digest the food anyway, regardless Of conditition oi stomach.
 The sufferer from dyspepsia accord iug to directions is to eat an abund- anco of good, wholesome food and use the tablets before and after each meal and the result will be that the food will be digested no matter how pad Eonr dyspepsia may he. be- cause. the tablets will digest the i00d even if tue stomach Is wholly inactive. To illustrate our meaning plainly, Ii you take 1,S00 grnins oi meat, eggs or ordinary food and @ P'ace it in Il temperature of 9s tie- # sFees, and put up with it one oi eleafts Dyspepsia Tablets, It will # digest the meat or eggs almost as x perfectly ns if the meat was enclosed & Within the stomach.
 The stomach may be ever SC weak M Net these tablets will perform the # work of digestion and the body and N ofaln will be properly npurished and 'e 'ne same time radical, lasting sze ute of dyspepsia will be made bp- f"use tho much ahsned stomach will " giVen. to some extent, much ''eeaed rest.

Ii You
Were
About
To Go By

To go buy Bicycle, don't do so un-
til you first know it were wise to give
OURS the "go by" Why we sell so
many Bicycles is no mystery, for the
names Rambler" Columbia" and
'Stearns" are known to every one who
knows what the word Bicycle means,
and about everybody in the Islands
knows that we are the agents for these
three leading makes.
We will not say much about the
"Stearns" this time, as the lot of 80
wheels which left New York on Febru-
airy 10th, did not catch the Australia -
and you do not want TO hear about a
wheel you cannot see, so we will tell
you about them when they get here.
But if you want a pretty mount, some
thing up to date, come in and see orr
'97 Columbus" and "Ramblers;" but
come quick, as we have sold over half
of the lot just received, and we are sure
to be out of both makes before we can
get good look at them ourselves.
We will have just forty-four (44) BIZ
cycles on the Australia" when she gets
here on March Goth, and from that on
we don't think anybody will go by to
buy a wheel because we have not got
the stock to show them.
Our "Columbias" this year, as we'll
as our "Ramblers,' are fitted with the
well-known G.. & ]. tires. This tire has
proved to be the best one ever used in
these Islands, and il you get the gen
uine G. & ]. tire you get what you need
for this climate and our roads. The
genuine G. e ]. tire is sold by the
Rambler" Agency here, and is fitted
TO wheels we order. You can get tires
that are said to be G. & ]. and look
just the same, but you won't want more
than one pair; looks don't wear, you
know.
Points of interest to you will be the
way the spokes are fastened on the
"Columbias," the new special seat and
the handles and grips on the Ladies
"Ramblers; in fact. you will find lots
to interest you, and you are welcome to
examine any wheel TO your hearts con-
tent, even if you have no idea Of buy
ing We have just added largely to
our stock of sundries-such as Lamps.
Bells, Luggage Carriers, Bike Stands,
Enamels, etc-and we can fit you out
with about anything you need.
FOR THE BEST of everything in the
wheeling line, go to
