It is sad story in which a west ern editor mourns the loss of two subscribers. The one wanted to know how to rear twins safely, while the other wanted to know how to rid his orchard of grasshoppers The answer went forward by mail, but an accident transposed the envelopes, so that the man with the twins received this answer: "Cover them oyer with straw and set fire to them and the little pests, after jumping around in the flames, will speedily settle, while the man plagued with grassho2pers was told to fgiye them castor oil and rub their gums with a bone.-Ex.

The communication which have recently appeared in the columns of the city papers, signed by pr. Bell, do not seem to have the sanction of tue leading and most influential ele- ment of the cCIored citizens of Pine Bluff The reporter for the Graphic has investigated the slings that he has recent tly made in regard to the salaries of our city superir tendent and a number of the teachers under him and he finds that Dr. Bell has not stated the facts. The city of Pine Bluff has school board, and all such statements as tue colored doctor has recently made are con demned by that body as being un- true, and if such is the case, then pr.

THE 4NERLGAN NATY.

Every American is proud of Uncle Sam's 4aYy. and it pleases him much to hear foreigners speak in praise of it. One of the bestinformed men in naval affairs is Capt Lieut.. Von Reuber= Paschwitz of tke German embassy at Washington. He has lived in this country many years and has made a close study of the American navy. He has carefully inspected all our war vessels aud declares they are the bestconstrucG- ed of any in the world As to the personnel of the American navy be says the officers have more teehnI- cal knowledge than those of any navy iu the world. He also pays a very high compliment to the Ameri- can sailor. The system of recruit ing in this country is the best that has ever been devised which results in the enlistment of the best men physically that are obtainable. They are self-reliant and it requires men of this kind to make good fight CTS. The discipline and general conditions observed on board of an American man,of.war, says Capt
 Pasehwitz, are equal to those of any naval service in the world. This German officer strongly recommends to his government the sending O
 German naval training ships tt America that the young sailors might pet an idea of the energy anC ingenuity shown all through tht American navy.-Ark. Gazette.

 C. $, Smieh. of Nashville, and the Boston Cup5ant are after Booker T. Washington
 This disposition shown by the white tax payers of Zine Blnff is commendahle.
 The feeling among the. eolOred and white people of Pine Bluff was never better than now.
 The colered people are buying lots in the new town to build new yiI- Iage and, church.
 The col0red people are proud of the three colored schools they have in the city of Pine Bluff.
 The speech delivered on last Sun day by Rev. A. NJ. Middlebrooks was and is still all the go among the col- ored people.
 It is a stubborn fact that the negro IS initiating the industrious white man in getting homes and beautiiYing the same.
 The colored people do not endorse the onslaught made on the school board and the superintendent of the city schools, Prof. Hlnemon.
 Not one negro that we have yet heard express himself, wants to go to the Philippine Islands, The ne- gro is an American.
 The colored Baptists had a red letter day on last Sunday at St. Paul Baptist Church. Among the most prominent speakers were A. Nj. Middlebrooks and .. H. Jackson.
 Hon. Bart Alexander said in his speech last Sunday that the first preacher he ever heard preach was the Rev. George Robinson, whose work and influence in this communi- tY is still growing for good.
 Prof. J. E. Knox is a candidate for the principalship of the Merrill High School. He was in close quarters on last sunday and Monday with the cololed divines of this city, Knox has a good job and should cultivate t.
 Prof. McMakin may not be a pro- fessionaJ, but he is discipliuarian and a moralist. What the negro needs is morality and piety. Rather have moral negro teacher in the schools who can teach we'll in the English branches than have an im- moral professional.
 A prominent negro was heard to say that the Romans and the Gre eians educated their children in log nuts, and they were the ruling na- tiors of the world in their day. Therefore, said he, it is not the brick houses we need for our children, but good government, comfortable hous- es and common sense. Moral teach CTS. The fellow that is always kick ing had better save his legs to run with when that light comes.
