STATE FAIR CATALOG UE.
Is Out Today and cau Be Had Ky Calling On Secretary M. l.
 Bloom.

The State Fair catalogue is out and was delivered on Thursday af- ternoon to Secretary M. E. Bloom.
 Tbe catalogue is in every partieu. lar ope of the largest and hand somest extant. It contains 168 pages, well filled with the lists of premiums, descriptive matter and advertising, and is enveloped in a handsome cover in eolors with a United States flag in national eolors on the first outside cover page. Alp excellent half-tone engraving of the Boston Ladies Female Band is alsoone of the attractlYe features. One of the most interesting and valuable contributions to the cata- logue is descriptive article of Arkansas, dealing with the States resources and advantages, by the Hon. W. c. Vincenheller, State Commissioner of Mines, Manufac- lures and Agriculture. Descriptive articles of Pine Bluff and Jefferson county will also be found within the folds of the catalogue, and alto gether it contains much information which has permaney of value, and after the fair is over" the cata- logue will be found to have value as thing of beauty" and a book of reference.
 The catalogue was gotton out un- der the direction of Mr. J. w. Adams, Chief of the Bureau of Pub licity and Promotion of the Pine Bluff State Fair Association, while the entire mechanical work was done by the Adams Wilson Print ing Co.,, ot this city. In that con nection it will not be inappropriate to S tate that the entire mechanical work was done in Pine Bluff, inelud- ing the double-color back and bind ing, and not thing came from abroad, except the type and paper and some of the advertisements ts. This fact, we think, is altogether creditable to Pine Bluff, and worthy of mention, since the mechanical ex- ecution would do credit to metro. politan printing establishment.
 The catalogues are now in the hands of Secretary M. E. Bloom, who has charge of the distribution of same. Parties desiring copy of the catalogue should address or call on him at the Citizens Bank,

 Tennessee's Pardner.''

After the unnatural plays that have misrepresented the West and its life for so many years, "Tennes- see's Farther" will be refreshingly welcome. Itis not dramatization of Bret Hartes pathetic story. The author has borrowed the title and the feeling of the story is strongly impressed on the play; but there the resemblance ends, except in the type of character. "Tennessee's Pardner" was a great financial and artistic success last season. It is Lot neces- sary to precede the coming of this play with fiattering notices. The names of the people entering into the personnel of the company speaking the authors lines and his quaint characters, will justify the filling oi the boards when the play is pro. duced October 10th.
 Rarely is 1t the privilege of Pine Bluff audiences to witness the inter- prptation of such play by such 2 company of players. James M Brophy in the character of swan Percy PIunkett, one of Americas greatest character comedians vii play the chronic liar, "Geewhilikel Hay; Estha Williams will be seer ill her original role Of "Nettiee Blce' and Jane Corcoran will be the "Tenn essee. Frank NJ. Kelley, Annie Mortimer, Walter Ryder and MarioT Bohannon. and others of equal not' take up the balance of this strong 1 nrpanizatiOn.

 aeh Trouble.
Instantly Relieved and Perman ently Cured By Stuart's

 markable cure of acute stomach trouble and chronic dyspepsia by
 the use of the new discovery Stuart E Dyspepsia Tablets.
 He says: The patient was n man
 who bad suffered to my knowledge for years with dyspepsia. Every thing he ate seemed to sour and
 create acids and gases in the stom-
 aeh; he had pains like rheumatism in
 the back, shoulder blades and limbs, fullness and distress after eating, poor appetite and loss of flesh. the heart became affected, causing palpi- tation and sleepleSsness at night. l gave him powerful nerve tonics
 and blood remedies, but to no pur-
 pose. As an experiment. 1 finally
 bought fifty cent package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at drug
 store and gave them to him. Almost immediate relief was given and after
 he had used four boxes he was to al appearances fully cured.
 There was no more acidity or sour watery risings. no blOating after
 meals, the appetite was vigorous
 and he has gained between 10 and 12
 pounds in weight of solid healthy flesh.
 Although Stuart's Dypepsia Tab-
 let's are advertised and sold in drug stores yet 1 consider them most valuable addition to any physician s line of remedies. as they are perfect Iy harmless and can be given to
 children or inyalids or in any condi- tion of the stomach with perfect
 safety, being harmless and contain ing nothing but vegetable and fruit
 essences, pure pepsin and Golden Seal. Without any question they are the safest, most effective cure for in-
