CHESTNUT Gull rURE.
A Boom Appears to he Impending in
This Industry.


This Industry.
Chestnut culture bids fair to be taken
up with vim, and many are the ques-
tons asked about it. One query as to
the relative size, quality and time of
ripening of five important varieties
viz, Paragon, Numbo, Cooper, Scott
and Ridgely answered in the follow
ing very practical manner by The Rural
New Yorker. with letters from several
growers
We have fruited only two of the
varieties Paragon and Numbo.
They Iipen at about the same time.
The Paragon is the more productive,
and has no off years. With us Numbo
sometimes fails entirely. Last season it
did well, but the previous year our
largest tree, about 30 feet high, had
only one or two burs, while the Para
gon was too full. AS to quality. we find
Paragon a little sweeter, but not quite
as fine grained as Numbo. The latter is
a more brilliant. glossy nut than Para
gon, but will not average as large.
II. M. ENGLE d Son.

Pennsylvania.

The Paragon and the Numbo are OF
about the same size and general appear
ance. being about the size of the big for
eign chestnuts seen on the street stands.
In my opinion the Paragon is the best
in flavor Of any of the varieties of the
foreign types which are being offered
to the public. 1t is also quite early.
but not SO early as some of the seed
lings of the Japan type. 1t has the very
good characteristic of opening all its
burs within a short time, which is Of
importance in reducing the cost of gath
ering the nuts. Ridgely is a large and
profitable nut, but not so large or of as
good quality as Paragon, so far as l
have tested it. Cooper and Scott | have
never tested. II. Z. VAN DEMAN.

come so palpable that Goebel is against him and all he and his friends hold dear that he cannot escape talk ing sides in the matter, and in that, as in everything else. he will be gov erned by motives that cannot be criticised.
 This Kentucky affair is part of a conspiracy, not so much againsr MT. Bryan or silver or anything else, but rather an attempt of certain men to control the party for ends of their own. And they are selfish ends. They represent corrupt purposes and unfair prin, aries, bossism and ma chine politics. There are not enough of them to control the convention; they cannot even split the party. They may defeat it, as they did in 1896. but that will not give them anything for their pains, and they want something"

AGAINST COEBEL ALTGELD SAYS HE WILL BE CRUSHED TO
 ATOMS. A SELFISH CONSPIRACY
Declares That Democrats Will Not Tolerate Methods That
 Override the People.

A recent issue of the Chicago Re cord contained an interview with former Governor John P. Altgeld. the silver leader of Illinois, regard ing the condition of democratic politics in Kentucky. Ex-Governor Altgeld said:
 "Goebel will be crushed to atoms, The Democrats of Kentucky will not tolerate methods that override the will of the people. Goebel was nom- mated by main strength. The South does not like that sort of thing, and it will be rebuked at the polls.
 Asked what Mir. Bryan would do, Mir. Altgeld replied:
 He cannot support Goebel. 1t is not unlikely that he will come out positively against him. say this, not because have any information as to how Mir. Bryan feells, but can tell about how he will look upon the revelations that have been made and that are likely to be made showing Goehel's relations with the enemies of Mr. Bryan's friends. 1t is simply out of the question for Bryan to help Goebel crush his friends-the men who will send a Bryan delegation to the next na tional convention.
 You ask me if Mir. Bryan will come out positively against Goebel That I can only answer as I an. swered the other question by saying that l believe from knowledge oi him that he will. l don't think he will rush into the affair or that 1t will please him to be drawn into it, for be is not man who likes brawl- ing politics, but I think it will be-

POSTPONED SINCE JULY 'e7 NOW IN THE DESHA
 CIRCUIT COURT
STATE VERSUS KNIGHT
He Killed John King at Redfork Alleging That King Had
 Threatened to Kill Him

Prosecuting Attorney W. B. Sor- rells returned Monday afternoon from Dumas. where he had been in attendance at ten days session of the Desha County court. Mr. Sor- rells returned this morning on a local freight as several cases are yet to be heard in that body.
 At this session of the Desha court there was very important aLd in teresting murder trial It was that of the State vs. ". T. Knight, a white man, who killed John King another white man at Redfork, De- sha County on the afternoon of July IS, 1897. The delay in trying Knight, who has been out on $5, GOO bond ever since the tragedy, was political interference of some kind. When Judge Grace opened court in that county recently he reviewed the docket and finding such an old case still penang, he had the mat ter investigated and called for trial.
 One remarkable feature of this case was that it took from last Tuesday morning to the following Saturday morning to get jury, but after the jury was empanelled, the case was completed in a little over four hours, the jury retiring Saturday evening.
 The attorneys for the defence were Frank Rogers, Obe Pindall and X. J. Pindall. Attorney W. B. SorreIls represented the State.
 Up to the present writing. the jury has not returned with verdict, but the last heard from the jury room, was that the jurors stood Il to l for. murder in the second degree.
 Many Pine Blufians still remem- Der the tragedy. Knight claimed that King had threatened bls life and meeting him at Redfork on the date above stated, July 16, 1897, he blew bis brains cut with do uble- barrelled shot gun. He gave him self up to the authorities and made no attempt whatever to escape or even resist arrest. The grand jury at it's next sitting indicted Knight and charged him with murder in the first degree. The case has been tponed on several different oc- casions, but as stated above, when Judge Grace opened court there he

DIED A HORRIBLE DEATH.
Bill YOwell, of Little Rock, En-
 counters Live Wire.

This afternoon about o'clock Bill Howell, age 35 years, of Little Rock, who is employed as carpenter in the Barring Cross shops at that place and who is also a member of the wreckine crew of the Iron Noun. tain road, encountered 8 live wire near the Valley depot in this city and was instantly killed.
 He was on top of the derrick rais. ing wires, in order to allow the mas sive machinery to pass under, when the horrible electrocution took place. The train was in motion, and he fell fully 25 feet to the ground, striking on his head and shoulder. His shoulder was broken aud his head crushed. The wire burned en- tirelY through the skin and almost to the bones.
 He has two children living in Lit tie Rock, his wife being dead. He has relatives working in the Cotton Belt shops here.

that a state OF anarchy exists in the
