THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

TO the care and skill with which it is

all the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIe SYRUP Co.

assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FoRNIA FIG SYRUP Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It Is

as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken

Homestead Rights of "A Widow.

Mr.. Justice Hughes delivered an
opinion in the state supreme court in
the case of Irene Duffy VS.. Mary j.
Harris, which is an interesting one. as
# raises new question in this state:
This was an action Of eJectment brought by
Mary J. Harris VS.. Irene Duffy. Mary Harris
claimed tine property as her homestead. as be-
ing the widow OF Dan Harris The defense TO
her action that she had deserted and
abandoned her husband. Dan Harris long be-
fore his death and had relinquisaed her home
stead rights by such desertion and by removing
to Tennessee, where she continuously resided
in adultery with another man.
In his opinion Mr.. Justice Hughes quoted
article tx. section OF the constitution relative
10 the homestead rights o: a widow and stated
that it would seem this settled the controversy.
He said in addition: Mary Harris was never
divorced from her husband and she was un-
questionaby his widow In some states it has
been held that such facts would constitute an
abandonment Of her homestead rights, but in
others the contrary doctrine is established.
In this state ii is held that the domicile OF the
wife follows that OF the husband and we un-
derstaud this to be the rule, and that the fact
that she abandoned her husband and lives
apart from him in another state, will not form
an exception. or cause her to forfeit her right
to the homestead. She is not nonresident
while her husband is resident. Her legal
status as 10 this is governed by that OF her
husband. The husband owes the wife protec-
tion and support as long as that relation ex-
lists between them. and the desertion of the
wife could not alter her legal status. Harris
was still her husband and the head OF a family
and as long as that relation existed de jure
she was his wife. and at his death was his
widow, and entitled, under the constitution, to
the right of homestead

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

minds of good many that the so-called
business interests" of the country
would accept peace at the price of ma
tional dishonor.-Peoria journal.
President Hanna's message has
at least had the effect OF stirring up
lively discussion, which is something
after all. III we can't or won't fight let
us take ii out on the Spaniards and on
one another in withering language
Chicago Chronicle.
If President Mckinley could but
muster up the courage to cut loose from
Hanna and his stock-gambling friends
it would perhaps be possible yet for
him to regain in some measure the con-
fidence of the people. But with Hanna
he is like Sinbad with the old man of
the sea astride his neck.-Kansas City
Times.
When we have done with Spain,
the question will be what to do with
Mckinley. He will drag along through
his term the most despised man ever
elected TO great office. When his term
ends he will drop into an obscurity
compared with which the present life
of Cleveland will seem a distinguished,
giittering public career.-N. u Journal.

a TRAGEDY IN LONOKE.
W. X. Booe and His Two Sons Killed r,y
the Eagle Boys-Had Been Enemies
n Number Of Years.

A triple killing took place in the
little town of Lonoke, W. X Booe and
his two soDs being the victims, and Joe
P, Joe E., Dave, Robert, e. L. and
Miles Eagle and Bob Daugherty were
arrested for the killing. A short time
ago Charley Booe was shot near Eng
land from ambush, but was only slightly
wounded. The Booe's accused one OF
the Eagle boys, and the killing of the
father and two sons was the sequel
Charley Booze and his father arrived in
Lonoke from England and were met at
the depot by w. III. Booe, another son.
They were met by the Eagles and the
shooting began, the three Booes falling
victims to the Eagles unerring aim.
None of the Eagles were injured, and
it is not known whether or not the
Booes did any shooting, although each
was armed with a six-shooter. The
parties to the tragedy had been on un-
friendly terms a number of years, and
after the attempt on Charlie Booe's life
at England it is claimed they threat
ened to wipe out the Eagles at the first
opportunity. W. ii. Booze and his son,
VIII, were engaged in merchandising
at Lonole. Charley was young lawyer
and citizen of England, in Lonoke
county. Bob Daugherty, who is under
arrest, is a son-in-law of w. II. Eagle
Joe p. and r. e. L. Eagle are sons of
W. IL. Eagle; Niles and Dave Eagle are
sons of Dave Eagle, deceased; Joe E.
is sen of Doc" Eagle, deceased. All
the boys are nephews of ex-Gov. James
p. Eagle. In the early days of Lonoke
county both the Booes and Eagles dis.
played their bravery, and figured in
number of tragedies where the VIM
chester and six-shooter were used with
deadly effect
