the matter his prompt attention.
 
 There is to be more cash money
 turned loose in Forrest City this summer than was ever before
 known at this season of the year, and the people who receive 1t are class who will be compelled to circulate it in order to obtain tht necessities of life. Times will be
 good all the year round, and even now. busipess in every line, has brightencd perceptibly. There is no merchant who has not noted with pleasure the increase Tn his cash transactions. The large crew of men working for the railroad contractors, together wl.h the force of laborers and mechanics now employed on the oil mill, will naturally cause money matters to brighten up considerably. But this IS not all, Irish potatoes are being harvested, and thls industry ciaims it share of the credit for the healthy business conditions. While unsatisfactory prices haze delayed and retarded shipments, still few cars are marketed every week, and ths purchase money is paid to people who spend it. In Il very short time the city, or rather the Improvement District, will be engaged in an elaborate and exten- sive work which will necessitate the expenditure of several thou sand dollars and large amount of this money will be paid out right here in Forrest city. Residence properties are being improved and new residences are being built, causing the circulation of local and individual capital. Then comes our regular busy season when the cotton farmers begin to marke, the product of their years toil There is always business at this season, and it is such regular thing that most any business man on Front street can estimate it's voIume-after crops are laid by basing his calculations on the sea- son-the amount ofrain VIC did, and the amount we did not get. At any rate. as before stated, busi. ness in all lines will be much i'm proved for some time to come, and It Is not necessary to take an op. tmistic view of the foregoing re- irrespective and prospective con ditions to draw such 8 conclusion. A large bulk of this trade will be cash trade, and the merchant who IS going to do the most business, will be tho one who is the most successful in reaching the people to whom he wishes 10 sell his goods. He must ad vertise his wares, and see that hls advertisements arc read by the people 10 whom he intends to sell. The time is at hand when business men will be compelled to shake oif the lethargy which seems to bind them in handling the business oi the farmer and couLtryman. We're on boom, and you had better get on while everything is quiet because you are liablc to miss the train. It's not credItable to the town 10 look at our columns and think of the number of merchants who are not represented. It is also fact that those who are ad. ver,ising:: arc doing the biggest part of the business and are the most prosperous.

THE DEADLY PISTOL.
P. C! Klie Shot and Killed by hls
 Partner, Chas. A. Graf.

A few angry words followed by three pistol shots, all occupying only two or three minutes tune and P. c. Klie lay behind the bar in the Colorado saloon mortally wounded, shot by his partner, Chas. A. Graf.
 The fatal affray occurred at few minutes after 9 o'clock Wednesday morning when Klie returned to relieve Graf from tending bar. Three meh testified at the coronor's inquest to be- ing in the back part of the saloon and ran out the back door when the shoot ing began. Strange as it may seem, none of them saw shot fired nor mo- ticed anything unusual in the notions and conversation of the parties to the quarrel.
 Mrs. Hubbell, who washed clothes for the firm, testified that she went to the saloon for tie washing and knocked at the back door. Hearing no response she opened the door and saw Klie standing behind the bar and Graf in front of it engaged in an angry alter cation in German. Anticipating trou- ble she withdrew and went down the creek to the footbridge and thence back toward the saloon on Broad street Before she reached there the three shots were fired in rapid succession and when she passed the saloon win- dow she saw a man lying behind the bar and met Graf at the door.
 Several minutes elapsed before any one entered the saloon. among the first being James Crowley, agent of the Chiricahua cattle company, to whom Graf surrendered and few minutes later was turned over to Deputy Sheriff J. W. Voris, and taken to jail.
 Klie remained where he had fallen with his head toward the front window and his feet close to the ice chest at the end of the bar After a nasty ex- animation by Dr. T. S. Collins who pronounced Klie's injuries fatal, the wounded man was removed to a room over the saloon where he died within half an hour after the shooting, with out having regainsd consciousness.
 Two of the three shots fired by Graf at Klie toek effect, one in the left breast m inch above the nipple and one in the back of the head. The other shot, probably the first fired, pierced the center of the mirror be- hind the bar.
 In an interview Graf stated to Q rep. resentative of the SILVER BELT that in shooting Klie he acted in self defense. A misunderstanding over business mat ters had existed for some time, he al. leges, and on two preylons occasions Klie had threatened his life. Very lit- tie is known of the antecedents of eith- CT Graf or Klie, as they had lived here only about six months, but they were both apparantly pleasant and peacea- ble men.
 Acting Coroner Whslley held an in- quest on Wednesday afternoon, the verdict of the jury being that Klie came to his death from pistol shot wounds inflicted by Graf.
 Kie's father living in Alabamai and a brotheriulaw, at Flagstaff, were noti- fed of his death, and after several tele- grams back and forth, instructions were received to bury the body here. The funeral will take place tomorrow fore noon.
 Graf's preliminary hearing is set for tomorrow but will likely be continued until District Attorney Fleming returns from pbnopix

War Is Inevitable,

London, Sept. 5.-The latest news re-
ceived in this city from various points in
South Africa is vague and contradictory.
Nothing more is known regarding the
status of negotiations between Great
Britain and the Transvaal than was
learned yesterday
Officials of the British war office, en-
phatically deny that reserves have been
called out or that any steps have been
taken to that end.
The afternoon newspapers follow the
leadf of the morning papers in taking an
extremely grave view of the situation. al
though the war Office denials all tend to
allay the wildly alarmist reports current
last night.
The Boer organ here the Standard and
Diggers' News, to-day prints a dispatch
from Pretoria saying the tension there
was apparently less severe, and it was be-
lieyed arrangements for the proposed con-
ference at Capetown would be completed,
although President Kruger Is unlikely to
attend.
The opinion of those who regard the be-
ginning of war between Great Britain
and the Transvaal as matter of only a
short time is voiced by the st. James Ga
zette, which says to-day
News concerning the crisis Is very
grave. We learn that three more infan-
try brigades have been ordered to Cape
Colony, including the Gordons of Dargai
fame; one battalion of Highland light in
fantry, who fought in Crete; the I'd bat
TALON of the Black Watch and I'd battai-
talon of the Camerons.
'These regiments are under orders to
be ready to leave on "a hours notice. OFF,
GERS and men are delighted at the pros
poets of active service.
I'm service circles the war is considered
absolutely certain. The admiralty have a
number of transports ready to convey
troops to Cape Colony. The Beers, while
procrastinating in regard to their reply,
have been making every preparation for
war, and are contemplating raiding the
Natal frontier Laings Neck, which is
the sole route from the Transvaal to Ma
tai, is undefended.

An aggressive campaign has been ordered.
The military men of the service will be
given full sway. Colonel DENLY and Pro-
lessor Worcester, the two civilian men,
bers of the commission now In the Phil

Cure for Insomnia.
the Ladies' Home Journal.

From the Ladies Home Journal.
Insomnia is a self-intiicted curse
through the violation of natures laws.
The cause may be oyer-anxiety, plan
ming for the morrow, thinking and
worrying over the yesterdays and to-
days, but no opiate can remove the
cause, even though 1t may bring sleep.
If the cause is merely mental ever
work 1t may be quickly removed by
relieving the brain of the excess of
blood. Physical exercise is a panacea
for about every ailment which human
flesh is heir to. Therefore, stand erect,
and rise slowly from the heels; descend
slowly. Do this 40 or 80 times until
you feel the congestion of the muscles
in the leg. Almost instant relief fol-
lows, and sleep is soon induced.
For those who are averse to a little
work l would recommend, instead, a
bowl of very hot milk without so
much as a wafer) Immediately before
retiring. The hotter the milk the bet
ter for the purpose. This will prove a
better sleep producer than all the opi-
ates known to medical science. 1t
brings about an increased activity of
the blood vessels of the stomach, eaus-
ing slight temporary congestion, which
relieves the blood vessels of the BRAIN
The hot milk is also quite strengthen
ing to the stomach.
