It was first booked for the 5th of November; then for the 9th instant. and now the promise held out is that it will certainly arrive as soon as the tariff bill becomes law. They do not, of course, expect it at all by the means now being employed to produce it.. They know that it cannot be pro dueed by increased taxation. They are still for silver and ready for the next battle i'll behalf of silver. They believe, too, that the next battle will be won for silver"
 Mr. Jones was asked if the adop- ton of the single gold standard by Japan had proved disCoTgagipg to the silver men in this country.
 "Not at all." he rei lied. "Why should il? If the news we have re- ceived about the transaction is cor sustained by Japan's action. We in- sist that gold has been constantly apprt eiating as money ever since silver was demnnetiZed. Japan conced this. Her gold ven, which she now makes her It gal ,nder. will contain only half as much gold as formerly. That tQnalizes her fixing of the parity bel Ween gold and silver 32 to l. Suppose the United States should fix the amount oi gold in q gold dollar at F and Il fraction; wouldn't that be q confession that gold as money has appreciates? Un- duubtedly Japan's action will not affect sentiment on the money qnes- lon in this country at ail. '

He came to Arkansas from Kentucky at the close of the civil war, and first located in what is now Lonake county. laying out the present town of Ionoke. but subsequently, re moved to Jefferson county. settling near WabbaseAa. where he has re- sided for number of years.
 He WAS an upright man and a peaeeabie and orderly citizen. He held in high degree the esteem of his nelghbars and such was their confi- dence in him that he was frequently called an to aFbitrate neighborh0od differences. He was devoted hns- band, a loving father and a faithful friend.

Man. Proud Man.
By Allie" Dreyfus. |

The man who wants the earth in yariably gets it-when he dies. Men and watches are judged by their works; both have wheels.
 If some men would lose their repn- tation they would be lucky.
 The more man has the more he wants, unless it happens to be twins.
 A crank is man who has a differ ent hobby from your owh.
 Nc gentleman will swear before lady-let her swear first.
 A man puts his best foot forward; mule puts his back ward.
 Some men are so exceedingly modest that they shun the naked truth.
 Some men seem to have been made out of dust that had gravel in t.
 Most men are ready and willing to die for their country-of old age.
 It never cools a man off when the street sprinkler throws water on him.
 4 man who beats bass drum should never be encouraged to beat the record.
 A man smiles when you speak Of his level head. but call It fiat and he gets mad.
 Man is made of dust; along comes the watering cart of Fate and his name is Mud. | Instead of going to hell when he dies man ought to be born again and be woman.
 II 1t is true that the clothes make the mani some men ought to change their clothes.
 The chief end of man is his foot especially when he has to foot his wife's bills.
 The man who claims to have no memory may be cured by lending small sums to his friends.
 In the midst of life we are in debtf and our creditors are always remind ing one about it.
 4 man may be as honest as the day is long and still do lot of mis- chief during the night.
 
 When man finds his clothes too loose he should either change his tailor or boarding house.
 Nature has wisely arranged mat ters SD that a man can neither pat his own back nor kick himself. 1t is Il wise man that knows his own name when he sees it on the newspaper list o, hotel arrivals.
 X man may be both success and Il failure; he may be a success as a fAilure, and a failure as q success.
 Every man thinks everyone knows him that's why he writes his name sn you can't read it. l Clothes may not make the man, but it is useless to create a di,tur- bance by going around without them.
 When a man tells you he likes tu work. you may not say SD to his face but yor think il just the same. It :s an easy matter to get your fellowmen to speak well of yor; all you have to do is to lay down and die.

pettiHrCw's Amendment.

Senator Pettigrew has introduced an
amendment to the Dingley bill which
provides for the admission free of duty
of articles controlled by trusts. Should
it become law and be carried out hon
cstly how much revenue would the bill
yield? There are trusts in sugar, coal
window and plate glass. lumber. pot
terry, wall paper. rubber. cutlery and
in nearly al! kinds Of hardware. There
is no trust in tea. but that is probably
because there has been no duty to en-
courage it. There are also trusts in the
WOODEN and cotton industries. Revenue
will be scarce if such a law should be
enforced. But will those elected by
trust funds DESTROY the system which
fosters trusts? They may pass some
such laW, as they did the Sherman anti
trust law in 1890, but it will be only an
other dumrE.
