 From the Flashlight.
 The Sunday School of the First Baptist church, under the lead ership of Superintendent Geo. West, deserves credit for it's ex- cellent work. It is not only do- ing good work locally, but it supports a missionary in China, without aid or assistance from any other quarter. The school desir- ing to still further contribute to the mission cause, recently sent a box of clothing to the family of a minister who is working on the Texas frontier.
 Swazey 6 Swazey, proprietors of the lunch counter at the St. l.. &; N. A. railroad depot, also of the Commercial Cafe, one of the principal restaurants in the city, have failed. Total assets which were seized by Hawkins 6 Co.,, house furnishers, are one-fourth of the liabilities. These young men came here and opened up a nice, clean place, and as long as the business was conducted or derly, the patronage was good, but when 8 disregard to moral laws began to be apparent, the tide turned and failure was the natural result.
 Ollie w. Alexander, aged 36, of Pine Bluff died at the Glenny House Saturday as a result of a peculiar and seemingly trifling accident. Mr. Alexander was addicted to the use of morphine, the habit having been formed during a time of suffering from a fall which hurt his spine some- time ago He had placed him. self under the care of physician here for cure of this habit, and nurse was in attendance. During a period of nervousness, he fell from the bed, striking his back, and he died within two hours thereafter. His body was taken to Pine Bluff, the funeral occurring there on Sunday. He was well known in Southern Ar kansas.

Poultry Notes.
Farm and Ranch.

Farm and Ranch
 Corn is best for the evening feed.
 The farmer should always give his towels large run.
 Exercise is much better than drugs as a stimulant for egg pro- duction.
 Feed the table scraps to the chickens rather than the pigs.
 In majority of cases the soon- CT sick hen is killed the better It may save the rest of the flock.
 In building polutry houses re- member the most important re- quisites are light, ventilation and warmth.
 Never breed from immature fowls no matter how handsome or perfect in looks they may be-
 Do not feed too plentifully of soft feed or the birds will sit and nope after eating. A growing chick, like a grow ing animal, requires plenty of wholesome food.
 Watch out for lice.
 Do not let the chicks get wet.
 Give fresh water twice a day now.
 Bran and buttermilk make a good ration for laying hens.
 Feed your fowls systematically and regularly.
 An occasional change of feed will be relished by the fowls and will help egg production.
 It often pays to kill and eat the hens that are too fat, as often t is a long time before they get to laying again.
 When chicks are trained from the start to stay in the orchard they like no place better and will be perfectly contented to scratch in the dust for worms and catch bugs and insects of every kind.

Arkansas Deserves It.

President Whitaker of the Ar
 kansas Worlds Fair Commission
 s to be commended for the wise Enthusiasm with which he has Undertaken the task of raising yhe sum of S3O,000 for the pur- pose of making a state education al exhibit at the Worlds Fair of 1903, says the St. Louis Republic.
 So excellent an opportunity for advertising the educational prog ress of a state will not be again presented in the lifetime of the present generation. Nor is there any other field of endeavor more deserving of exposition than the educational. It is the foundation of every states fabric of pro- perity. It accounts for the en- terprise, the intelligence, the we'll l-directed efforts which go to make a states prosperity.
 President Whitaker fully real lzes the importance of such an exhibit of Arkansas's education al advancement, as well as the necessity for a competent state exhibit which shall properly and comprehensively represent the wealth and natural resources of one of the greatest American cOmmOnWealthS. His Dlan to raise total of S150, ,000, in which this ESQ., ,0OO educational exhibit will be included, for the purpose or assisting in the proper repre- Tsentation of his state, is admirable and marked by the soundest com mon sense. It should receive the heartiest support of the people 1of Arkansas.

BADLY KNOCKED OUT.
Effects of the Drought Stagnat-
 ing All Kind of Business.

Instead of the genuine, steady upward move that our people had contemplated for the country since the railroad has been put in operation, it seems we are compelled to take several back ward steps, temporarily at least, on account of the long-continued drought, which has had the ef- feet of reversing the lever of , prosperity and turning us back down the track.
 While there is no danger but what all will be able to pull through until another good crop is produced, yet there is every reason to believe that the un- precedented dry season has land ed us blow the effect of which will not be wiped out for some- time to come.
 Farmers--the bone and sinew of the country-are the first di- rect sufferers from the shortage of crops, and as soon as they feel it, it permeates the entire business system of the country.
 Viewing conditions as they exist at present, we need not be disappointed if the growth of our town should reach a sudden stop and no more general im- provements be made for many months to come, and we need not be disappointed either if the fel- low we have been looking for to buy up our cheap lands and turn loose some of his money in de- veloping the country should postpone his visit for awhile. The fact is that most all lines of inn proyements are already effectu- ally set at rest until future de- velopments shall again set them going.
 It is a frs t-rate time now to practice economy-if you don't Mlave it to do you are lucky.

to him in decreasing doses in hopes of curing him of the habit, made his escape Saturday night. Before decamping for parts un- known he entered J. w. Kirk nam's drug store and appropriat- ed fourteen bottles of morphine. This is the second bad break Doc. has made since taking up board with Sheriff Grim. Some time time ago while trusty and the door of the calaboose left unfas- tened that he might roam about at will, he abused his trust and burglarized a drug store, taking number of bottles of morphine and some cigars. These he was compelled to disgorge and since then he has been kept locked up, but Saturday night he broke out and to avoid being deprived of his precious medicine this time, absconded. He was discovered near the Heard spring 5 miles east of town. He had gotten away with nearly four bottles of the medicine but claimed he had nothing to eat for four days which was probably true.

Rule ItefnS.

Weather is very hot and dry. Farmers are much discouraged over the prospect for corn.
 The wheat crop was far better than was expected in this local- ity. The yield was quite up to the average. The oat crop, how ever, in many instances was not worth harvesting. The vegetable crop might as well be classed as a failure.
 The fruit crop is fast on the decline. Apples are much im- paired, while our peaches are morbid and tiny.
 Generally speaking the condi- lions now prevailing bid fair for a much dismantled and prema- ture fruit crop in this community, which has heretofore been called the big red apple and the non- failure portion.
 People are always too prompt in laying the responsibility of unfortunate things to the Su- preme Ruler. They grumble at protracted rains and they raise the hand of scorn rigidly when droughts prevail. This should not be so. Reviewing the past, we find that droughts have an nually come, and and that over- flows have semi annually swept different portions of the globe. This is all in accordance with the laws of nature, and let us make the best of the present, and quiet ly hope for an era of prosperity and plenty, and that the vast re- sources of this portion of Arkan- sas may be developed in due sea- son.

Will Make The Run.

A company of Texas, Indian Territory and Oklahoma men has been formed to make a rush for the lands of the Kiowa and Com manche country when it is opened to settlement, and these men will make a run for homes in that country as soon as the proclama- ton declares it to be open for settlement. They have employ ed Hon. Richard Morgan, of Per- ry, Okla., as counsel and will fight their cases in the courts. They have investigated the mat ter from a constitutional stand- point and have been given legal opinions that the Kiowa and Commanche country has been purchased by the United States government and that it is public domain and is open for settlement by the citizens of the United States and that it can only be subject to the homestead laws of the United States, and these laws provide for but one way of select ing homes, and that is to move onto a claim, stake it off and own it as a homestead, and there is no provision in law for selecting claims by drawing lots. These men are all full of determin ation, backed up by legal advice, and they say they will fight for their rights in the courts.
