River of Death.

The Yellow river, which has been named the Sorrow of China, is prob- ably the most destructive stream on the face of the earth In less than 100 years it has changed it's channel four times, and the point where it empties into the sea has from time to time been moved up and down the coast a dis tance of 300 miles. It runs through a vast alluyial plain, and is fed by streams from a great system of noun tains in the north. When the snow melting on this range comes at a time of heavy rains, the result is sure to be a terrific flood. It has been estimated that in the past three centuries over 10000, 900 human beings have perfsbed
 the floods of the Yellow river. For estructiveness, both of life and prop
 rty, this stream is unparalleled, and
 le sobriquet bestowed upon it is am~ Iy justified by it's history

An Inquirer Answered.

Editor Graphic.-Is there any req son unknown to the public why the officials of the Light X Water Go. are so earnestly supporting one of the candidates for Mayor.
 INQUIRER.
 The above inquiry comes from one of our leading and most substantial citizens. The Graphic is unable to answer his queray from it's own knowledge; we eau only explain the apparent interest of the officials of the Light & Water Co. in the canai- dacy of one of the candidates for Mayor in the manner it was ex- plained to the writer several days ago by one of the local stockholders and directors in the recently ineor. porated Pine Bluff Electric Light & Street Railway Go.
 His story runneth thus: "The P. B. Electric Light & Street Railway Go. has secured an option upon the plant of the Pine Bluff Light & Water Co.,, and if this option is con- summated it will throw the local officers and employees out of their jobs. Of course, the officials of the LigLt & Water Go. are not only anxious to defeat this option, but also a competing light company. Mayor Bell has been most active in his efforts to secure a competing light company and IS the friend ot the proposed Pine Bluff Electric Light & Street Railway Go. Tht promoters of this latter enterprise are doing everything possible tt make it go, but it take, time for all things and may require some considerable tim, yet. Their option expires in Jun, or July. Should they not be sue cessful by that time, they will asl an extension. And here comes it the danger from the Water ant

He Was Homesick-nN1t,',

While interviewing the Sing Sing conYiets on the subject 0f homesickness among prisoners, one day recently, I found men who were living examples of the woes of Gostalgia. At the same time there were some who drove all tEo poetry out of the situation.
 l approached one of the latter, and had great difficulty in making him un- derstand what I was driving at, al. though I couched my language to suit the exigencies of the case. He was a typical tough, with beetling brows and a head shaped like a nutmeg. When I asked him if he was ever homesick he simply replied. Nav" What were you sent up for?" I asked by way of encouragement.
 What were you sent up for?" I asked by way of encouragement.
 "Bigamy," was the sententious re- ply.
 And the other timer"
 "Bigamy ag'in."
 How was that?"
 Well, you see it was dis way:-I was eenned into marvin two women, unbeknownst. De foist had me arrest ed, an I served me foist term. When ! comes out de odder one has me jug, ged. an here I am. Am I homesfck! We'll I guess nit!"

HENRY AUSTIN ADAMS, of Brook
lyn, N. T., editor of Donohue's Mag
azine, was at one time an Episcopal
clergyman, but is now a convert to
the Catholic faith. In recent lecture
he said political economists say
there is one thing and only one thing
on which society rests, and that is the
home. Destroy its God appointed
sacredness and the country will fall
and all the sacred influences that
radiate from the home will be wiped
away. A true friend of the home is
the Roman Catholic church and the
thing that is debauching the home is
the divorce. In all this country there
is only one voice raised sternly against
divorce, only one church that is ire
vocably opposed to it, and that is the
Roman Catholic church. 1t refuses
to justify it in any way"

WHAT To DO.

There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulhlls every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back,
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the
urinary passages. 1t conects inability to hold
water and scalding pain in passing it, Or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or beer,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of
being compelled to go often during the day,
and to get up many times during the night.
The mild and the extraordinary effect Of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. 1t stands the
highest for its wonderful cures of the most
distressing cases. If you need medicine you
should have the best. AT druggists fifty cents

THE crowded condition OF the
Miners hospital greatly hampers DR..
Biddle's staff in their work, and the
comfort and treatment of the patients
is interfered with because Of these
conditions. The board of trustees
are living in the hope that the Legis-
lature will be liberal enough in grant
ing an appropriation that will be
large enough to cover the expense Of
erecting the additional ward that is
so badly needed. There is no more
worthy institution in the state than
is this one that through its efficiency
brings aid and comfort to thousands
of the afflicted men of the coal re-
gion every year, and state funds could
not be expended in more worthy
cause. With the limited staff it is a
source of wonder TO those who visit
the institution and look over the
records to see the amount of good
work that is done there under the
supervision of DIR. j. G. Biddle, the
efficient superintendent.

THE OLD WAY
OF Treating Dyspepsia and Indigestion by
Dieting Dangerous and Useless one.

Dieting Dangerous and Useless one.
We say the old way, but really it is a very
common one at present time and many dys-
peptics and physicians as we'll consider the
first step to take in attempting to cure indi-
gestion is to diet, either by selecting certain
foods and rejecting others or to greatly di-
minish the quantity usually taken, in other
words, the starvation plan is by many sup
posed to be the first essential
The almost certain failure of the starvation
cure for dyspepsia has been proven time and
again, but still the moment dyspepsia makes
its appearance a course Of dieting is at once
advised
All this is radically wrong. II is foolish
and unscientifc to recommend dieting or
starvation to man suffering from dyspepsia
because indigestion itself starves every
organ and every nerve and every fibre in the
body
What the dyspeptc wants is abundant nu-
triton, which means plenty of good, whole
some, well-cooked food and something to as
sist the weak stomach to digest it. This is
exactly the purpose for which Stuarts Dys.
pepsia Tablets are adapted aud this is the
method by which they cure the worst cases
Of dyspepsia, in other words the patient eats
plenty Of wholesome food and Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets digest it for him. In this way
the system is nourished and the overworked
stomach rested, because the tablets will di-
gest the food whether the stomach works or
not. One of these tablets will digest 5000
gIains of meat or eggs,
Your druggist will tell you that Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets is the purest and safest
remedy for stomach troubles and every trial
makes one more friend for this excellent
preparation. Sold at so cts. for full sized
package at all drug stores.

HELD COURT IN fHa BRUSH.
Peculiar Conflict between Federal and
County Courts I'm Missouri.


County Courts I'm NJ Mlssourl.
Kansas CITY, Mo, March 15.-The
judges OF st. Clair county who are
trying to keep out Of the hands Of fed
eral court officers introduced an innova-
tion yesterday by holding court in the
brush where the mnrshals could not
find them. The tangle is becoming de-
cidedly complicated,
Judges hewitt, Lyons and viii, who
served until January, and who spent
time in Jail here for refusing to obey the
federal courts order to make a tax levy
to pay the disputed issue of st. Clair
county bonds, were released when their
term Of Office expired. 1t was held that,
as the new Judges had not qualified, the
old ones were still in office, and an order
was issued directing them to make the
levy yesterday, and the order was duly
served upon them.
On Monday United States Marshal
Durham learned that the new judges
Intended to qualify and thus make the
courts order of no avail. He went down
to Osceola in disguise, succeeded in To-
eating two of the new judges and served
the order on them. They had not yet
been sworn in. but Durham did not
know it. Immediately afterward they
qualified, and then before Durham could
again serve the order they mounted
their horses and rode out Of town. Yes
terday they sent for the county clerk
and held court in the brush, where the
marshals we're unable to locate them.
