INJUNCTION PROCEEDINGS
Filed by Attorney M. A. Austin of
 the Iron Mountain Road.

Attorney M. A. Austin, of this city, made a visit to Arkansas City recently. MT. Austin is attorney for the Iron Mountain railroad and the object of his visit was to file injunction proceedings in the chan cery court at that place restraining the sheriff of Chicot county from selling the property of the railroad company for delinquent levee taxes. This includes the taxes for the year of 1899. and several years back taxes extended against the com pany's property, that by oversight, or some other eanse, was never extended until the year of 1895. This is suit that has aroused con- siderable interest, there being about $15, 900 involved, that will go into the levee treasury if the leyee board wins the fight.

Hndson Hit Hard.

Hudson, Wis, June 12.-One of the most terrific cyclones ever wit messed by the citizens of Hudson passed through the country here at 5:30 this afternoon. It formed in a waterspout four miles south of Hudson, on Lake St. Croix. It was witnessed by hundreds of people, and seemed to follow the lake and to be making directly for the city, but about two miles south it veered to the east and left the lake and cross ed the country. It was about twenty rods wide, and destroyed everything in its track. Much farm property was destroyed and a great deal of live stock was drowned.
 On the farm of H. s. Mattison not building, wagon, tree or piece of machinery is left whole. The house was swept from it's foundation and nothing remained but the floor, which covered the cellar. in which the family had sought refuge.
 Telegraph and telephone wires are all down and adjoining towns can not be heard from,

OTTO kROUSS
Says Tt is 8 Shame That Pine
 Bluff Has No Opera House.

Sunday afternoon Mir. Otto Krouss passed through the city over the Iron Mountain road witks his sopera troupe, the Holman Company. They were en route to Hot Springs, where they will play a two- weeks stand. MT. Krouss said "it is a shame that town the size of Pine Bluff has no playhouse" and in our opinion he is right. Do you know" said Mir. Krouss, that the theatri- cal world consider Pine Bluff the best town in the state, barring none Why, 1 regret to have to pass through here without a stop, as I have been playing this town annual ly for several years and met with success on each visit. Pine Bluff, believe, has the men, if they will just push the work they could have one of the prettiest theaters in the South" And just as Mir. krouss completed the conversation, the train pulled out and he jumped aboard.
 Pine Bluffians are we'll acquainted with MT, Otto Krouss and everyone will doubtless agree with him when he says "Pine Bluff has the men and they have the energy, if they would only use it, is needless to say they would meet with success in the erection of a handsome theater.

saltwater, Minn., June 12-The AsaIaga of New Richmond, Wis, was 6Imast wiped out of existence this Eysping by one of the most severe EgoIones that ever visited that To- H,btg. It carried ruin and death < ifs path and at this hour it is i'm bossible to give even partial list X those who are seriously inJured. lis thought many are dead.
 The news of the disaster was Brought here by J. A. Carroll, a Travelling 1aa from Portage, Wis, sbo was stopping at the Nicollet Aouse in New Richmond when the #Feone struck. He saw the funnel Hbaped cloud as it came up the brincipal street and took refuge in sbe basement of the hotel, which kas completely wrecked, together kith every other business house in he city. In terrible sheets of rain bllo8ing the cyclone MT. Carroll Ind hls companions succeeded in Enoying the proprietor, Charles sIeKennon. wife and one child from he debris. They also removed the bundry girl, who was so seriously hiured that she will probably die, snd two men named Barrett and 3sRal, who were very seriously Rlured Mir. Carroll drove to Still Fater by team foro Selief, and the Fan with doctors will leave here

ABOUT ANCHORS.
Those Carried on Merchant Vessels
& AL. b Observation-Disclosures AM
&s chOrs ON Yachts. ~

Ships anchors cost from five to seven,
cents a pound, so that a e,00O-pound
anchor, which would be a very large
one, would cost, even at the lowest
price, about $500; and the big ship that
required an anchor of that size would
carry two of them. The two big an
chors carried by a ship of. say 1000
pounds each, says the New York Sun.
The anchors of merchant vessels are
painted or tarred. Whenever the YES
sci is painted the anchors are painted
also, to preserve them from rust. But
on yachts and various smaller pleasure
craft galvanized anchors, are used.
which, of course, do not require paint
ing. Galvanized iron anchors have been
made for torpedo boats in the navy,
but, generally speaking, their use is
confined to pleasure craft. A galvan-
ICED anchor cost nearly as much again
as one not galvanized.
The galvanizing preserves the anchor
from rusting and makes the anchor
more slightly in appearance. and it pre-
vents the anchor from dripping rusty
water and SO staining and marring
decks or other surfaces with which ii
might come in contact Anchors wei gh-
ing 1.4C0 pounds have been galvanized.
such anchors being for very large steam
yachts; anchors are galvanized in vari-
Gus sizes from that down to the very
small anchors used for sailboats and
small yachts. Of small galvanized an
chors many are sold.

come out of the telephone booth after

attentive man may be at Other times
his wits seem to go wool gathering after

rette smokers are the most forgetful.
When man is talking through the
phone he puts his lighted cigarette on

Relative Importance OF Letters.

10 those who have never considered
the subject it might appear that each
letter is of equal Importance in the
formation of words, but the relative
proportions required in the English Ian
guage are these: A, IS; b, 16; c, 80; d,
A; e, 1870; f, IS; G, II; h, Ga; i, 80; j,4,
k, 8; l, 40; m, 80; n, so; o, so; p, II; q,
S; r, 62; s, 80; t, 90; u, "a; v, 12; w, 90;
x, 4; y, 20; z, 2. It is this knowledge
of how frequently one letter is used
compared with others that enables
crpytogram readers to unravel SO many
mysteries.
