WANT HANDS BADLY.
There is No Use Tramps Begging
This Time of the Year.

1t appears that the special cor
respondent of the Arkansas Ga
zette from this place, has made it
appear that all one has to do here
to get hands to work is to 20 out
and blow horn and the starving
bucks will come in droves pleading
for a Job to keep the wolf from the
door, when, in fact, the negroes
here, with few exceptions, dress as
well as the white laborer and seem
to get along about as well, and
there are as few idle negroes here
than there are whites.
We published a letter from Mr..
Gray of Homan Station, to the
mayor on Friday, asking him to
send idle negroes there as he would
give employment to many OF them,
he having read the Gazette special

see from the Gazette that your
city is over run with idle negroes, if
you will head them for the Arkan-
sas River bottom, east of this city,
they can get all the work they
want. Negro labor east of here on
the river is scarce. For the last
two years the Mississippi River
bottoms has made large cotton
crops and was late in picking it
and lots of negroes has gone back
there. will give you few names

The lady whom we mentioned
in Fridays paper as being
in a destitute condit IN in the old
wooden factory, has a husband
so we learn, who spend his time in
idleness on the streets, while she
works at odd jobs about the hotels
as dish washer, thus procuring
plenty to eat besides getting some
money for her work. We also learn
that the couple own farm at the
spur switch on the Cotton Belt,
and have a COW, a horse and buggy,
and could do well if her husband
would work as industriously as has
the woman. This couple aban-
doned their home some time ago
and took up their abode in one of
John Carmichael's houses, near the
wool factory and played the pau
per act on the neighborhood for
some time, getting their rent free
and whatever else the neighbors
would donate to the children. Now,
that the woman is sick, and the
children too small to help about
the house, and the husband being
born tired, the woman needs some
one to look after the affairs of the
house for the time being, but as
to the family being paupers, 1t is
denied by those who seem to know
the facts in the case.

SOME WONDERFUL CURES
Made With Glasses.-Dr. Seymour's
Success.

During a few moments conversation
with DIR. Seymour. the successful
Omaha optician. he said that while he
fully appreciated the high esteem his
patients and friends held for his pro-
fessional skill. yet he saw nothing
wonderful in 1t, as to him 1t is simply a
matter of science and requires patience
and hard work which is Of course very
materially aided by accurate instru-
ments and years of experience.
DIR. Seymour has performed some very
successful cures by the use OF glasses,
and n of his patients, a prominent
business man of his native state, testi-
fies to the fact that he had not read a
word for twenty years and had been To
every eye specialist in his city as well
as having taken treatment in Kansas
City. and only obtained relief after go
ing TO DIR. Seymour. He said hat DIR.
Seymour a done more in making him
see sufficient to read any man he
had ever visited, and he expressed MS
sincere belief that by the aid of glasses
prescribed by the doctor he would be
able to read and transact his own pri-
vate business.
Another one of his patients. a lady.
says that although she had for
years that one of her eyes was or little
use tn her. yet she had neglected IL,
and as the other seemed good. she
dreaded wearing glasses. But the old
maxim of pride before a fall a proven
true, n the good eye had been abused
until IL had failed and consigned her
to the ranks of the half-blind, who are
thankful IL they can retain sight
enough TO recognize their friends. with
no nope of ever again being able to
enjoy the pleasure Of reading. which Is
the price paid for neglecting this most
precious of all gifts bestowed by a gen.
erous Maker.
She was very enthusiastic in her
praise OF DIR. Seymour's skillful manner
of treating her sight and said that by
the assistance of his marvellous instru-
ments combined with patience and
care, he had been able to bring her
back into the world OF sight to an ex-
tent that h had not dared to hope for.
and that she was already able to read
a paper a thing she had not been able
10 do for over a year.
These are only "A few of the cures
accomplished by DIR. Seymour, and IL
certainly should be a serious subject
Tor consideration for suffering
wlta defective vision. hat IL this can
ne done Tor others IL surely can ID
hone Tor you. Do not neglect TO meet
the doctor during his stay IL you think
You are at all in need of glasses.
DIR. Seymour's remarkable success is
vouched for by hundreds of people I'm

his skill. and those who let this oppor-
tunlty pass will have only themselves
