Vernon, the hypnotist. had small house
at the Crawford Grand last night, but the
attraction was no less meritorious The
house was kept in uproarious laughter all
the way through, which was evidence of
the high appreciation Of Vernon's wonder
full power. During the evening he had
eight different subjects on the stage doing
his will. They hunted butterflies. fought
bees and did all manner of pranks at the
beckon of their master. At the close Of
the performance the hypnotist put man
to sleep and he was carried 20 the drug
store Of Romig & Howard. on North Main
street, where ne will be kept in suspended
animation until tonight when he will be
carried back to the opera house and
awakened at o'clock in the presence Of
the audience. Vernon says the most sci
entific feature is the act of bringing the
subject out Of his deep sleep when, he
says, it will require six strong men to hold
the subject twhile he is being resuscitated.
The performances of Vernon are well
worth going to see.

A Tribute to the Memory of A. D.
 lichlWer.

Aaron D. Lichlyter departed this life on the night of Feb. 13, 1899, at the home of John Kasinger, near Marked Tree, Poinsett County, Arkansas.
 Uncle Aaron was on his an- nual trapping trip and had been in feeble health for some time, and before his death re- quested that his body be sent back to Washington County, for interrment in the Liehlyter grave yard near Shady Grove. His wishes were followed, and the remains arrived at Spring dale on Feb. 15, and after ap- propriate funeral services at the Shady Grove Church, his mortal remains were consigned to rest in the soil of the hilly country far away from the swamps where he had spent so many winter seasons.
 The deceased was born in Jefferson County, Tenn, on Sept, B, 1928, and through the long years had been a faithful observer of the Golden Rule.
 For many years he has been spending the spring and sum mer season here with relatives and friends, but as the trap ping season drew nigh. Uncle Aaron would make arrange ments to return to the sunk lands" of eastern Arkansas, where for thirty years or more he had spent the winter season where the wild game ranged.
 Our acquaintance with Uncle Aaron dates back a dozen years or so, and during that time, at various intervals. we have had the pleasure of hear ing him relate many incidents of his life as a hunter and trap per. His was quiet and un assuming disposition, and no vain or hoasting language was ever used in his narrations of those scenes and things that have vanished so rapidly be- fore the onward rush of eivila- zation.
 .The blessings of his quiet life fell on
 us like the dew.
 And good thoughts, where his foot
 steps pressed, like fary blossoms
 grew"
 He has fought the good fight and has learned the bright se- cret hid beyond the bright stars. Our old friend now rests in peace and his many acts of kindness and love will never be forgotten by those who knew him best.
