Help Swell the Fund.

The Governors of different states
h rye issued proclamatlons calling
on the school children to RAISE
funds for the purpose of going
toward paying for a monument to
be erected over the grave of La

made a like request. Our school
board met to take action in
the matter and the following ad-
dress has been printed and distri-
bdted over the city by their order

of school directors of Texarkana,
Arkansas, do hereby request all
children of this district, and such
other persons as may feel so dis
posed, to make contribution,
however small, to this fund, and
thus show the appreciation of our
people for the valuable services of

McRae at Rocky Comfort.

Special to Texarkanian over Freeman
Telephone line.
Rocky Comfort, Arkansas, Oct
ober 49, The special train over the
Arkansas & Choctaw railroad that
arrived here this morning, from
Texarkana, brought out a small
crowd, among the number being
Judge E, f. Friedell, George Reed
and Thos. G. McRae, from Texar-
kama, and a small crowd from way
stations along the road. The crowd
that assembled to hear the speak
ing was quite small owing to the
fact that the farmers are busy at
their homes in getting out their
cotton
Mr. McRae spoke for an hour and
those present enjoyed the speech
very much. The people are almost
a unit for his return to congress
and will turn out on election day.

He Shot At His Man.

This morning while a drummer
was spreading his chothing samples
out on the counters at the room
abutting the alley, at the Huckins
House, negro boy, who is known
as a tough character here, ran in
and snatched up pair of pants
and made off with them toward the
railroad, the drummer gave chase
and so closely did he crowd the boy
that the black scamp wheeled and
pulled small calibre pistol, fired at
the traYehng man, whom he missed.
The drummer closed in on him and
made his capture. The boy was
turned oyer to an officer and lodged
in Jail and will be examined this
afternoon before Justice Higgin.

New York, Jan. 29.-The Financier says:
The statement of the associated banks
for the week ended Jan. -. while it does
not show the enormous increases of the
previous week. indicates that money Is
still flowing heavily to this center. The
gain in cash for the week was $685. 100,
OF which nearly S25o0,O0o was specie. The
latter represents Western receipts TO Il
large extent, following Austrian remit
tances.
The increase in deposits. amounting to
St. OIL. 400, tied up $10UO,0O0 of the cash re-
ceived so that the surplus reserve Is
only 81 334, $50 heavier than one week ago.
There is no doubt that the loan expansion
81 1916, 600 reflects legitimate mercantile and
stock transactions, instead of special OPP
erations and technical transactions. such
as have been in evidence since the Union
Pacific sale.
The loan increase is scattered through
a larger list of banks than usual 1t is
worthy of note that the bank which has
been most prominent in financing the
Union Pacific deal reduces its loans four
millions following the retirement of over
due currency skies held by the treasury
on its account against deposits. All the
special depository banks paid to the
treasury 10 per cent. of their holdings
last week. otherwise the gain in cash
would have been heavier. 1t is the de-
post items of the banks doing the
largest business with interior banks that
show the highest percentage of gains.
The future, in view of the continued
piling up of idle money in New York.
appears to favor easier money. 1t should
not be forgotten, however that considera-
BILE of the surplus cash in banks belongs
to the treasury and is subject to its
withdrawal. The commercial demands are
also heavier. and whereas the loans of
the banks during january, 1897. remained
stationary while the surplus reserve in
creased 26 millions the loans in the same
period this year have expanded $4,000 900.
while the excess cash shows gain of
$50, 900 900. Thus. while the supply is in
excess of the demand. the latter Is Inn
measurably more pronounced than at the
beginning of last year. IT IL difficult to

HIS WIFE IS IN W|CKES
Mrs. Peters Was Not the Wife
of w. B. Gordon.
HAD NOT BEEN DIVORCED
The Denver Woman Denounced as an I'M
poster No Truth in the Statement
That the Dead Smelter Man
Had Three Wives.

Great Falls, Jan. "a special from
the Standards correspondent at Belt
says: James A. Gordon, resident OF
this town and a brother of the w. b.
Gordon who was burned to death in the
recent fire at Spokane, says that his
deceased brother. married in Berlin,
Wis., at a date he has forgotten, Miss
MCGOWAN, who is now living at Wickes,
this state. He had five children by that
marriage, three sons and two daught-
ers. One daughter married Norman
Stewart a mining man of Salt Lake.
Gordon says that the Mrs. Peters men
toned in the dispatches was not his
WIFE and w. b. Gordon was not the
father of her children. He is also posi-
tive that his brother was never i'll Den
yer, and that the Denver woman who
claims to have been his wife is an inn
postor He has never heard of any
trouble between his brother and the
wife at Wickes. His brothers home
and considerable other property was at
Wickes, though his business interests
kept him in other states larger part
of his time. He may have lived with
other women, but James is positive
that his brother was never divorced
from the Wickes woman and all of the
OtneT cld11ndHLS are IHlpuStoIS. hN
parents of the Gordon boys are both
dead
The above statement is called out by
the article in a Spokane paper received
here to-day, which says that w. Il.
Gordon, who was killed there in a fire,
and who was wealthy mining man,
had three wives living, from none of
whom he had obtained divorce. From
two gentlemen in this city who knew
him well at Wickes from the time he
first came there the following facts
are learned concerning him.
He reached Wickes in the year 1882,
bringing his wife and two children from
Wisconsin, where he had been engaged
in smelling. He was made superinten-
dent of the smelter of the Helena Min
few years of service went to Castle,
where he put in the Cumberland smell
ter. Then he went to Pueblo, and on
this trip, so the two informants state,
he got into a ScraDe with a man at
Denver. His brother is mistaken in
this matter. He put in a smelter at
Pueblo and another on the Columbia
river and another in old Mexico, being
in fact, one of the finest practical smell
termen in the Western country. He
made big money and amassed consid-
cradle property at this period. On his
Pueblo venture he was associated with
August Raht and he also was in charge
of the East Helena smelter at one time
He also was employed by the Omaha
and Grant smelter.
At the time of his death he must have
been about 80 years of age. At Wickes
he was one of the most popular men in
the camp, and it was not known that he
had any bad habits.

Just a
Little Pain.

The 6rst touch of Rheumatism is a
fair warning of much torture to follow.
The little pains which dart through the
body are not so severe at first, possibly a
mere parg, and cause little inconven-
fence, but if the warning is unheeded,
they will multiply rapidly and increase
in severity until they become almost
unbearable.
Rheumatism as rule is much severer
in winter, though many are so afflicted
with it that they are crippled all the
year round. Those who felt its first
touch last year, may be sure that with
the first season of cold or disagreeable
weather, the mild pain of last year will
return as a severe one, and become more
and more intense until the disease has
them completely in its grasp.
Being a disease of the blood of the
most obstinate type, Rheumatism can
be cured only by a real blood remedy.
No liniments or ointments can possibly
reach the disease. Swift's Specific
Is. S. S. is the only cure for Rheuma-
tism, because it is the only blood remedy
that goes down to the very bottom of all
obstinate blood troubles, and cures cases
which other remedies cannot reach.

A RADICAL DEPARTURE.
The Broadwater Has Decided to Lease
the Upper Workings.


Great Falls, Jan. 29.-What may be
considered as a radical departure from
the usual custom at the Broadwater
mines, is the recent action in subleas-
ing the upper workings. For several
reasons it was deemed ineXpedient to
keep a force of men at work there, but
at the same time ii was known that
there was ore there that would pay well
if it could be worked carefully and
economically. says the Neihart Miner.
Last week it was made known that re-
sponsible miners could obtain leases,
under certain conditions, in the upper
tunnel of the Broad. Men out of work
were not slow in taking options on the
ground with the result that there are
now a number of men at work there.
The proposition made by the company
is very fair, everything considered, al
though at first thought the royalty
asked seems high. The company de-
mands for it's portion a royalty of % per
cent. But it agrees to furnish sharp
tools and the necessary timber. etc.
Powder, caps, fuse and candles are to
be furnished at wholesale cost price
and assaying done for % cents. In the
event of a leaser not shipping ore he
will not have to pay for material used
or for assaying and will be out nothing
but his labor. The company has already
let out all the ground it cares to at
present though later on it may con-
clude to parcel out tunnel No. . on SIM
liar conditions.
We look to see some of the boys, who
are all good workers and reliable men,
strike little Klondyke of their own.
At any rate the new scheme is liable to
increase the ore shipments to some ex-
tent

CHICAGO MARKETS.
Produce.


Chicago. Jan. 29.-Wheat showed some
strength at the opening. principally be-
cause Liverpool had responded fairly well
to Yesterdays advance here. Holders of
lines already heavy were good bidders at
the start, which was at 97AM9112c for
May, an advance of 1s@9sc. A good deal
was for sale at those prices, but the SELL
ing did not depress the price lower than
SIC, and sortly after a general buying
movement set in which carried the price
up to $50. That advance, however, raised
a short selling breeze of such strength
that in half an hour the advance had
melted away, the decline not stopping
until May was down to $3.50.
The heavy dumping OF long lines yes
terday made many traders afraid to risk
their money in wheat at prices above 97c,
and this fact had good deal to do with
augmenting the liquidation which car
ried prices down. Most or the routine
news was bullsh.
Bradstreet's made the weeks clear
