10 Johnson, prosecuting
attorney Of the district of
which Sebastian county is a
part was hanged IN of6gy at
Fort Smith one night last
week, the dummy beng
viewed until late the next
morning when it was cut
down. Johnson has been the
subject Of much criticism
lately on account Of his pro.
ceedlng with the trial of a
case with a jury composed of
six lewd women. The only
explanation Johnson offers
Tor his action is that he had
mad many cases in that par.
tlcuIar court but had never
succeeded in couvictiug the
parties charged with crime,
and that when the defend.
ants counsel suggested a
jury OF the character aamed
he thought it we'll to let the
public see just what kind of
\ court he had to deal with
|and therefore consented.
euch things, however, do
pot speak well for a state or
people. Johnson should be
suspended from Office.

A LOST BROTHER.

Somewhere, above or be-

brother-John r. Hite-
when | last heard Of him,
was in Matamoras, Mexico,
during the Mexican war,
about fifty years ago, He
was then wagon master OF
one of the United States sup
ply trains. For any intor-
nation concerning him | will
be thankful. If he has
the River, it will be
a relief to know in what part
of the world his ashes rest,
If alive, he has two brothers
and a sister living in Arkan-
sas who would be happy to
see, or even hear from him.

Jerome Miller, an Arkan-
sas boy wearing a volunteer
uniform in the Philippines,
writes to his relatives at
Huntsville, Madison county,
as follows: The reports
which the newspapers have
in the States that the in
surgents will not fight, is
not 50, If they don't think
that they are game let them
come and try them, especially
at the disadvantage that we
have. The only advantage
we have is that we can out
general them and stand the
fire better than they, They
have entertainments which
they get behind while we
have to advance through the
open on them and by the
time we have taken one line
Of trenches they are in an
other in the rear Of the first,
and we haye to again adj
vance through the open il no
other opportunity presents
itself, This is the way we
have taken about forty'nine
miles Of country that we now
occupy ard it is the way we
will have to take the rest OF

IN THIBET.

William Jameson Reid is
the second man to explore
Thlbet recently and write a
book about his experiences.
But Mr.. Reid Jared better
than did Walter Savage
Lander, the young English
man, who was so cruelty
treated by the Thibetans,
and whose book excited the
wonder ard horror Of the
whole civilized world.
Mr.. Jameson's book,
Through Unexplored Asia"
will be issued next month.
1t gives the first connected
account Of his dash into the
mysterious country OF the
Thi5etans, and what he saw
during his visit to the holy
city Of Tzuchan. What he
saw there was horrible be-
You'd expression. He was an
unwilling witness to one OF
the human sacriicial cere-
monies.
He saw five old men and Il
young girl sacrificed by fire
on the altar Of a stone idol.
Reid and his retinue watched
the awful spectacle from a
cave which concealed them
from the frenzied savages,
who, had they known Of the
presence Of the stangers,
would doubtless have sacri'
feed them also, to their
God.

INTERESTING EXPERIMENT.
Find Out Which One of Your Feet
Walks the Faster.

Ho;. may think this is very silly
question to ask, but is it? There is
no catch about it. 1t is n simple, de-
monstrable fact which you can prove
to your own satisfaction in a very few
minutes.
If you will take any pavement that
Is clear of other pedestrians, SO that
there shall be no Interference. and
walk briskly in the center you will
find that before You have gone 100
yards you will have veered very much
to one side. You must not make any
conscious effort, of course, to keep in
the center, or you may do it. but if
you Will think of something and en-
deavOr TO walk naturally it is 100 to l
you cannot keep direct line
The explanation of this lies in the
pecu iarity of one foot to walk faster
than the other. Or, to be more cor
rect, perhaps it should be said that
one leg takes n longer stride than the
other. and this. combined with the
quicker movement. causes one to walk
more TO one side than the other.
1t is well known, for instance, that
If one be lost in the woods the tend
cncy is to walk in circle and even
tually to return about to the starting
point. This demonstrates the fact also
that one foot walks faster than the
other.
You can try an interesting expert
ment in this way if you will place
two stakes in the lawn about eight
feet apart and then stand off about
60 feet from them, allow yourself to
be blindfolded and endeavor 10 walk
between them. You will find il an al
most impossible task. because one foot
will go Il bit faster than the other,
either to the right or left. Now,
which one of your feet walks faster
than the Other:-Kansas City Times.
