wm R,nsst Cattle Shipper

Arkansas delegation In congress,
for some time past, has been en-
deayoring 10 effect an arrange
ment with the agricultural depart
meut. by which the rigid cattle
quarantine restrictions regulating
the shipments OF stock from this
state would be modified, or over

resulted in Secretary Wilson deeid-
inp upOa establishing dipping sta

be Of great benefit 10 Arkansas cat

Senator Berry on the subject, Sec
retary Wilson says:
"I have given attention TO tht

A SOUTHERN KID.

The above play was gwen last
night to quite d mall audience,
The play ran rnuehly to the vau'
deyile.
The acting, well YOU might say,
was more on the mechanical order
than natural or studied art, gener'
any found ia. some one or two mem
bers of a travelling troupe.
P. c.. and Miss FiHa Rosar, il
their nuscal specialties redeemed
the entertainment by giving some
fine selections on various kinds Of
instruments. Their banjo PLAYING
was the best we have heard in
long, long time.
La. Petite Eileen, the 6-year old
prodigy, proved to be a bright, VI
vacious child, who went through
her parts in a very creditable man
ner. She bids fair, if properly
scbooled and trained for the stage
to become a rising star.
P. c. Rosar would do better anC
show off to better advantage if he
would drop the burnt cork part anC
act in a white character.
We never could see or reconcile
the fitness OF a play, where a negro
character on the stage is necessary
especially when the coon is to put
himself on an equality with the fe
male and act in concert with them
| 1t is Illuminating to the white race
and looks a little Ike the show peo
pie are trying to put ''black heels
on white neCks.
The stage is growing bolder every
| year. or at least we hear and SEE
things would better be lett unsai6
and not acted.
The law makers in some of oui
| states have already tOund it neces'
/ sarv to restrict the show people il
some OF their vested q privileges
as to dress, and the kind Of printed
matter exhibited ON walls, yet, We
find them bold and s2uCv when be
fore the fOOt-hghts.
We hope to zee the moral tone Of
! the stage and people improve, but
| up to the present time We have no
| tiCed no change.

The silver men have more thor
oughIv united. For several weeks
past the leaders Of the Democratic,
Populist and silver Republican par
ties have been in conference at
Washington City, and on the 10th
inst, issued an address to the peo-
pie on this question. They seek to
unite the members of the three
parties in future elections upon the
financial issue as the question OF
paramount Importance and send
separate appeals to each Of the
parties to consolidate all along the
lines for this purpose. The address
to the Democrats is signed by Sen
ator James K. Jones of Arkansas,

His Price for a Broken Heart.

Not long since a DanviIle, H.,
iury ordered the male defendant in
a breach of promise case to pay
the decidedly competent sum of
s54. 1888 to the afflicted fair one.
This was thought to be the largest
amount ever awarded by a jury in
a similar action. Though il is
pretty high estimate of blighted
afection, there is another estimate
which il not in dollars and cents eX-
actly as high, yet in general con-
sideration of excellence reaches as
lofty an altitude. That is the es-
innate of the people in their gen.
eral verdict as to the efficacy OF
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as
remedy for constipation. The ac-
ton of this gentle, but effective,
laxative is never accompanied by
the gripping and other abominal dis
turbance which precedes or accom-
panv the operation of a gripping
carthartic. Moreover, it is an III
comparable remedy for and pre-
ventitive of malarial, rheumatic
and kidney complaints, a never
failing means of invigOrati1g the
stomach and nervous system, and a
promoter OF appetite and sleep.
Persistence in It's use is strongly adj
visable.

For a Grand Reunion.

The G.. A. R. post at Cakes has
inaugurated a move for a grand reunion
of all soldiers of the civil war, both
Union and Confederate, at Washington
in 1900, the government to be the enter.
tainer. The resolution by which the
matter was brought before the attention
of the post is az follows:
Resolved: First, that we ask as a
patriotic measure that the government
of the United States invite all soldiers
of the war Of the rebellion, both union
and confederate, to Washington, as
guests of the union for one week,
beginning the first of July, 1900.
Second, that IN the fourth, independ-
ence day, of that year, the president, his
cabinet, and the surviving generals OF
both armies, review the grand old
armies, as they march down Pennsyl-
vania avenue, each army dressed, as
near as convenient, in their former
colored uniforms, but all under cold
Glory the flag Of our union.
Third, that we urge all G. "A. R. posts
and all patriotic citizens to help carry
this into effect.
Fourth, that congress be petitioned
and urged by patriotic influences, &c
appropriate the money necessary to de-
fray all expenses.

Plenty Of Wheels.

Godfrey Herlund, a Cav.ier county
farmer recently brought to the asylum,
but recently lost his mind. Last week
he took a kerosene can to his barn and
poured the contents over the straw be.
hind the horses. He was discovered in
the act Of applying a match and
desisted. Later he eluded his watchers,
and set fire to the straw, burning the
barn and all his harnesses, together with
his granary, containing 500 bushels of
wheat, 200 bushels of oats, q quantity OF
barley, and corn, several stacks of hay
and a lot of other property. The fire
was discovered in time to save the
horses.
While the people who were watching
Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1898-03-11

him were fighting the fire Herlun went
to the house, poured kerosene over the
bedding and was discovered by his wife
just as he was applying a match. It
went out before he was successful, and
she told him she could do better that he
could at the business. He gave her the
matches and she thus frustrated his
scheme. He then attempted to cut his
throat, but being prevented from getting
hold of any instrument with which to do
the cutting he used his thumb nail until
he brought the blood. He claimed his
horses were afflicted with CHAMBERS and
that he had leprosy, and that they were
dangerous to the welfare of the COM
munity, all around.
