SWALLOW ED A PIN.
An Accident Befell a BenWood Young
Lady Wednesday Night--.0ther
BenWo0d News.


Miss Maggie Hyde, resident of low
er Benwood, was the victim of an I'M
common accident, which occurred at
her home on Wednesday evening. Miss
Hyde was in the act of clothing her
self, preparatory to going to church,
and in doing so stuck a pin between
her lips. Forgetting the pin was there,
Miss Hyde suddenly drew deep breath
and the pin was drawn back into her
throat. Immediately after the acciden-
DR.. Alley, of the Emergency hospital
force of physicians, was summoned,
and on arriving at once set to work in
probing for the article. However, the
probing proved of no avail, as the pin
had been forced down the young lady :;
throat by her repeated swallows to a
point which rendered it impossible to
be reached with advantage. The pin
went down the lady's throat very slow
ly, passing into the stomach without
lodging at any point. The attending
physician stated yesterday that it was
necessary to closely watch the case for
a few days, but at the same time antici-
pated no serious results.

A Commercial League.

There is no difficulty in organiz inc a Commercial League in Pine Bluff. The trouble begins in keep. ing it vigorously alive afterwards, and that is simply matter of dol lars and cents. Will the business men of the city furnish the moneyf A few prominent citizens have ob- tained information about similar leagues and know about what monthly income will be necessary.
 The League at Fort Smith raises STD, which has been sufficient for their purpose. It is thought Sl25 per month will be amp,o for this city for the first year. A commits tee will this week call on the busi. ness men and explain their pnr- poses, and will ask each man tC subscribe definite amount to bt paid mon thly. On the result O their efforts will depend the estab lishment of the League or it's aband onment. Can the merchants atfor( to let this movement fail? There are plenty of active, able hosicesi men here, some of whom will give their thought and time to making the work of the League effective.
 All that IS now in the way is thC matter of an assured monthly in come. Let our business men sub scribe a stipulated sum to be paiC monthly for this purpose.

"Queer Conditions"

Our esteemed contemporary, tho Commerclal, of recent date contain ed very aele editorial on the sub ieet which makes the caption for this article, and which reminds us that we have discovered a very "Queer Condition" to exist in the conduct of the editoral department of tue Commercial
 For a year or more the public has been highly entertained and edifed by the perusal of moral homilies, philosophical essays, learned disser- tations, and elaborate disquisitions on variety of subjects in the edi- torial columns of the Commercial. h consequence of these Editor Newman has acquired a reputation which is, at least, Statewide, for philosophy and deep thinking. We have ourselves often been regaled and edifed by a perusal, even at second hand, of,these learned essays. But we have discovered a very striking likeness between the edi- torial matter ID the Commercial and that which appears from time to time in the editorial columns of the Albany (N. Y.) Times Union. In fact, the likeness is so striking that editorials in the Albany Times Union appear uer6atina ct liteyotin, in the Commercial of an after date, all the way from one week to month apart. Alter observing this exact ness of subject aud diction we were prone to think that it was simply another instance of where 'great minds run in the same channel, :" but we have since been informed that the Albany Times Union reaches the Commercial office with the same regularity that it does the Graphic's exchange table.
 The remarkable resemblance be- tween editorials in the Times U nion and those appearing at a subsequent date in the Commercial, without

office, that have been stolen bodily from the Times Union and palmed off on the public as original by the editor of the Commercial:
 "A Transformation: Appeared in the Albany Times Union Noyem- Der 15. 1898; appeared in the Com mercial, without credit and as original, in it's issue of November 29, 1899.
 "Uniforn Divorce Laws" Ap- peared in tneITimes Union on Nov ember 23; appeared in the Daily Commercial without credit and as an original editorial in it's issue oi December 2.u
 "Life's Whirligig," appeared in the Times-Union on November 26; appeared in the Commercial as "pure reading matter" and as an original editorial in it's issue of De- cembor q.
 "Courting America"-appeared in the Times Union on December 19, and was reproduced in the Commer- cial as an original editorial on Janu. ary 3, 1899.
 The above papers are on file in this office and will be exhibited without charge to any who may ap. ply. Other instances might be mentioned but the above will suffice to show that the editor of the Com mercial is rank plagiarist, fake philosopher, a hypocritical moralist and a quack essayist.
 The editor of the Graphic may be grossly ignorant" of historical names and events, as asserted in Saturdays Commercial, but he pre- tends to be nothing more than he is: he does not steal the productions oI others to appear classical; does not plagiarize in order to shine in 2 false light, and would rather bt guilty of "gross ignorance than tC be literary thief.
