Big Engine is Speedy.

Railway men of all classes are watching with much interest the tests of the "Izoo" series of engines of the Rock Island road, the larg- est running out of Chicago in pas senger service. Engine No. I2oI was given its first severe test for power and speed last week. The patrons of the Rock Island S first excursion to Colorado occupied fourteen of the largest and heaviest coaches. This was enough for two trains to be pulled by ordinary passenger engines of the day, con sidering, the speed required. The big engine did all that was expee- ted of it and more. Between Chi cago and Rock Island 1t pulled that train of fourteen coaches with ease on schedule time, and when called on for a little extra effort de veloped a speed of over 75 miles an hour.
 Engines of that class will haul all the special trains which will be used by the Rock Island i'll its series of Colorado excursions, at the rate of one fare plus S2.oo for the round trip. Three more ex- cursions will be given, leaving here July 9, July I7 and August I. The departing time of the special trains will be 4:45 P. m., but on the dates named excursion tickets will also be honored on all regular trains. The special trains to be used are high-class throughout. Through dining car service is pro- vided and the run from Chicago tC Colorado is made with only one night on. the road. Excursion rates will be made to Colorado and Utah from all points on the line oi the Rock Island between the Mis- souri River and Chicago. -Chiea- go Inter Ocean.

A Correction.

MR. EDTToR:-I suppose it has been rumored over Conway that J. w. Simmons presented a petition to some parties in Conway for money to build church in this vicinity, received some money and then ran away, taking the money with him. I wish to correct this, as it is an absolute mistake. There was no occasion for him to run away, to my knowledge, and be- fore moving from here to Wilber- ton, I. T., where he now resides, he turned both money and petition into my hands and the money will be returned to those who gave 1t, il the church is not built. For truth and right, w. H. HAMPTON.

QUESTION ANSWERED

Yes, August Flower still has the largest sale of any medicine i'll ths civilized world. Your motllerf and grandmothefs never thought oe using anything else for Indigestion or Billiousness. Doctors were scarce, and they seldom heard of Appen- dicitis, Nervous Prostration or Heart Failure, etc. They used August Flower to clean out the system and stop fermentation of undigested food, regulate the ae- ton of the liver, stimulate the ner- vous and organic action of the sys- tenn, and that is all they took when feeling dull and bad with head ache and other aches. You only need a few doses of Greens August Flower, ill liquid form, to make you satisfied there is nothing serious the matter with you. For sale by all druggists.

The supreme court of Tennessee at Jackson, refused the petition to practice law, of Miss Marion Grif- fin, of Memphis, Tenn. Miss Grif- fin is represented as being young lady of highest legal attainment, and fully qualified in every way to make success in her chosen pro fession, and the action of the sa- preme court in debaring her is a great disappointment to the young lady and her friends. The sole reason for debarring Miss Griffin is on account of her sex, the de- cision being, no woman shall prac- tice law in the courts of Tennessee.

Collector of Customs Stackable has
applied to the Secretary of the Treas
ury for the appointment of tea in
spector for this port under the provi-
sions Of an act of Congress passed in
1897, entitled AN Act to prevent the
importation of impure or unwholesome
tea" This act provided for the ap-
pointment of inspectors of tea at New
York, San Francisco, Chicago, Tacoma
and st. Paul, or in fact, wherever there
were ports receiving large importations
of tea. Pending their examination of
the teas the importers are required to
file bond of $1,000 that they will not
remove the tea from the warehouse
until the results of the inspection are
officially known.
Honolulu imports tea in considerable
quantities and under the Congressional
ruling Is compelled to send samples to
San Francisco for testing. This occa-
