George Washington.

And now it is charged that Geo.
Washington had peculiarities the
same as other men. He was not a
Republican, nor a Democrat, it is
alleged, but a mugwump in politics.
He never made any speeches for
bimetallism nor tore his shirt for
the single gold standard. He was
not a prohibitionist, and often took
a little, for the "stomach's sake.
He was a poor business man and
was guilty of the unstatesmanlike
act of refusing to take his salary as
general of the continental army.
He is even said to have gone out of
Office poorer than when he entered
t. He abode with his army and
shared their privation instead of
getting in on the ground floor on
some beef contract, and was actual
ly caught on his knees praying at
Valley Forge. He set a bad exam
pie and rebuked aspiring statesmen
of the present day by declining re-
election the third time. But worse
than all, he refused to lie about the
cherry tree"

TeXarkana will be given an Oppor-

prize fight between Corbett and
Fitzsimmons, as they appeared in
their fourteen round bout at Carson
City just one year ago. It has been
made possible by the Edison veri-

the object or thing living or moving,
and it is said by those who witnessed
the fight between Corbett and Fitz-

life. If you expect to see this great
show you had better get your seats

Suicide Said to be Epidemic.

DR.. La Rue, the famous French
authority on abnormal pneumonia,
and a professor I'M Laval University,
has, after exhaustive comparison OF
facts in France, Belgium, England
and the United States, come to the
conclusion the inclination TO suicide
is mania, and is epidemic. There
seems to be strong cOrroboration OF
this in our own country where one
suicide-particularly among young
females-follows another. No learn.
ed authority has as yet discovered
with exactitude whether malaria is
epidemic or endemic, but it has
been a matter of notOrietY for near
ly half a century that the mCSt re-
liable preventive audcurative of the
various forms of malaria is Hostel

THAT EXCURSION

We learn from those whom we
believe know, that the Leming eS-
cursion advertised 10 be here yes
terday was a failure, not from any
fault of Mr. Lemiug. iorwe are told
he did his work well aud tried hard
to interest the people where he
placed his advertising matter giving
a description of our city and sur
roundings, bat it seems the people
are not wanting TO make a change
and therefore did not buy tickets in
sufficient numbers to cause the run
ming of the promised train. Mr.
Leming received his pay for the
work already done, and our citizens
will not be called upon 10 make

FOR LAND COMMISSIONERS.

We had a call this morning from
W. P. Wootten of Dardanelle, Ark,
who is in the field for land commits
sioner of Arkansas. Mr. Wootten
was at one time register of the
United States land Office at Dar-
danelle, under a democratic ap-
pointment, which shows that he
stands we'll with his party. He
served four years in the land de-
partment and thereby gained con-
siderable information which would
be of great help to him in the dis
charge of the duties of land COM
missioner of the state. We have
formed a very favorable opinion of
Mr.. Wootten, and hope he may be
successful in his desire to become a
state officer.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
and that is caused by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an in6amed condition of
the mucous Inning OF the eustachian
tube. When this tube is inhamed
you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an infamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
