The Rat That Sailed.

A rat was caught alive on board q
British naval, vessel in a trap and the
beast was thrown from the trap into
the water without being killed. A
large gull that was following in the
wake Of the ship to pick up scraps
Of food thrown overheard by the
steward, swooped several times en-.
deavoring to pick the rat up. Once
the bird got too close to the rats
jaws and the beast grabbed it by the
neck. After a short fight the rat
succeeded il killing the bird. When
the gull was dead the rat scrambled
upon the birds body, and, hosting
one wing as n sail and using the other
as rudder, succeeded in steering for
shore. Whether the rat reached
shore or not is the question, since the
ship soon got out OF sight OF the
skipper and it's craft.--London Field.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications cal they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition
bearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out OF ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition OF the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot he cured by

"Hell on the Border"

The Arkansas Legislature will be
petitioned to forbid the sale of book.
The citizens of Fort Smith have the
petition well under way. The petit
ton states that the book is calculated
to prejudice the public against Fort
Smith.
The BOOK is the life story of the
Hanging Judge" the sternest Of all
American justices. It is the biogra-
ply of Judge Isaac Charles Parker.
The title is Hell on the Border"
Judge Parker was known as the
American Jeffreys" He sentenced
200 men to death, One of his chief
executioners alone hanged sc men.
His court was continuous perform
ance. He opened court at a. m and
sat In judtiment until dark. When
he passed his first death sentence he
burst into tears. Notwithstanding that
he atterward sentenced 1879 others to
death and sent 100 more to prison
for life. He was burned and hanged
in effigy in Indian Territory. On the
day Of his death there was a joyful
riot at the old Jail at Fort Smith, Ar
kansas.
He had two ruling principles: do
equal and exact justice" was one and
the other, @Permit no innocent man
to be punished, but let no guilty man
escape" Men were hanged In squads
OF five at time by his orders. He
was at once the most esteemed man
in Arkansas and the most hated man
in Indian Territory. Though he
passed the death sentence on 200
men he was opposed to capital pun
ishment. He administered Justice
according to the laws of his state. He
quarrelled with and won a victory ov-
er the Supreme court of the United
States.
George Maledon, slim, 1.-the, smile
less and 68 years old, the man who
hanged SO men, Judge Parker's able
Lieutenant. the "Prince of Hangmen,"
as they picturesquely put it in the west
the most famous executioner Of mod
ern times, is another figure of al ell
on the Border"
George Maledon was the hangman
during most Of Judge Parker's ad-
ministration. He hanged SO men. He
was dubbed Judge Parker's under
study. Very grim and very pictur-
esque is the humor of the west under
such circumstances.
s. W. Harmon served on the jury
In the famous terrible court" hun
dred times. He is the author of the
memoirs Of what he styles great
court and greater judge" to which
he has given the title, "Hen ON the
Border"

Gradually but surely the great
herds OF range horses on the interior
plains OF Washington, Montana and
Idaho are being driven to the wall.
Several causes are working together
to depopulate the bunch grass ranges
OF the vast herds of wild horses that
have roamed there. Briefly stated,
these causes are the increased de-
mand Tor irrigable lands by settlers
and the purchase or lease, followed
by fencing, of great areas of range
lands by cattlemen and sheepmen.

court house last Saturday to take
the proper steps to awaken the in
terest of all the people of this com,
munity in the esta blishment of the
industrial School in our midst.
Our two other competitors have all
ready made strenuous efforts to
capture this much coveted prize,
and 1T behooves every man and
woman in the parish of Lafayette
to do his or her utmost to help
these public spirited men in their
laudable undertaking. 1t is need
less to say low much benefit the
community would derive from such
an institution.
Ruston, in the Northern part of
the State, without easy means of
communication with the outer
world, and where is locs ted such
an industrial institute, has built
State wide reputation as an educa-
tlonal centre. 1t won for her about |
twenty-five well-trained teachers as
citizens, and scores of Young men
and women from other parts of the
State make Ruston their home for
several months every year It's
value to us is inestim able and we
hope that the gentlemen who have
taken the lead in this movement
will meet with the hearty cn-opera-
ion of the people of this parish.
