Awkward Johnnie.

There was once little boy who met
with so many dreadful accidents that
he was called Awkward Johnnie.
He was always getting bruises and
cuts, tearing his clothes and being car
ried home half drowned or with his
bones broken. The family got tired of
plying him. and on such occasions
only remarked:
What an awkward boy Johnnie is,"
Once he went to pay visit to his
grandmother. She felt Somewhat ner-
vous about Johnnies visit. But she
had always declared that if she had
charge of him he would not be so
troublesome. So when his mother
begged her to try Johnnie, she could
not very well refuse.
When he arrived his grandmother
said anxiously:
Il hope you will be a good boy,
Johnnie"
why, of course" replied Johnnie.
You don't think I'm awkward, do you?"
mo, Johnnie. Pm sure you are not
awkward" answered the kindly grand
mother.
But the first day Johnnie caught his
leg in the reaping machine. His
grandmother was glad when he was
safely in bed.
The second day he tore his best
jacket to pieces among the gooseberry
bushes.
Did your mother say she would
come for you tomorrow. Johnnie?"
inquired his grandmother.
"Yes-um!"
I'm afraid you're too old for ME
to begin to cure you of your awkward
ness now. Johnnie"
"Yes-um!" said Johnnie. from the
bed-clothes.
The next morning there was a slight
shower.
But it will clear toward night"
said Johnnie's grandmother. "Sit
down and keep out of mischief, for if
anything should happen you won't
have suit of clothes fit to go home

heart was quite softened by his good
behaviour, and after luncheon she
gave his permission to go out on the
porch.
The rain had stopped. Andrew had
dug trench along the road to drain
the garden. and the water was begin

A half hour later. while Johnnies
grandmother was doing peacefully in
the parlor. she heard Johnnie open
the door.
''Is that you. Johnnie?" she said.
"Yes-um," answered Johnnie. "You
don't think I'm awkward now, do YOU.
grandmother"
"Oh. no. Johnnie; think you have
improved very much since you have
been here. | am sure you will become
a very well-behaved child"
Then Johnnie stepped around in
front of his grandmother's chair. and
when she saw him she said:
Good grarioua."
Johnnie was covered with mud from
head to foot. The streams of water
ran down into little pools all over the
carpet!
And Johnnie's smartness did not
save him from the spanking he de.

Upholstered in Red Leather.

Red leather is the newest color tone
for the seat coverings of dining room
or library chairs. This has been
brought about by the vogue of the
darker toned oaks with which it har-
monies better. Green was better with
the light oaks in style several seasons
ago, with which red would look just
as out of place as the green does with
the more sombre tones used now.

The Missouri Pacific.

That the Missouri Pacific will be built from Webb City to Bates vile is no longer doubted in this section of the country, says the Yelleville Echo. Preparations have been made by the Webb City people to secure the right of way to Granby by the way of Scot land. The deeds for the right of way have been placed in the Ex- change Bank of Webb City and Mr. J. P. Stewart of the bank has the money on deposit to pay for land as fast as called for by the owners of said lands. Work of grading, surveying and clearing of right way on the Batesville end has been in progress for some time. About 50 miles of the line has been surveyed and located. They are grading on the first 20 and the second 20 has been let, the right-of way is being cleared and it is thought by the people that the surveyors will touch this county at Buffalo City within the next 30 days if not sooner. There can be no doubt that the aim of the Missouri Pacific is to tap the mineral belt of North Arkansas. If so it will come into Marion county at the southeast corner and go out at the northwest cor ner. This would give them ac- cess to all the mineral districts in Marion county and portion of Baxter and Searcy counties.

tired to little room containing the electrical switch board.

Oil ONt oO GU llOtAS ioOl1i NOii 9 the electrical switch board.
 It was just exactly Iii when Czolgosz crossed the threshold. But a minute had elapsed and he had just finished the last state- ment when the strapping was completed and the guards stepped back. Warden Mead raised his hand and at 7:12 1-2 Electrician Davis turned the switch that threw 1700 volts of electricity into the living body.
 The rush of the current threw the body so hard against the straps that they creaked percep- tibly. The hands clinched sud- denly and the whole attitude was one of extreme tenseness. For 45 seconds the full current was kept on and then slowly the elec- trician threw back volt by volt until it was cut off entirely. Then as it had reached that point he threw the lever back again for two or three seconds. The body which had collapsed as the cur rent was reduced stiffened up again against the straps. When it was turned on again, Dr. Mac Donald stepped to the chair and put his hand over the heart. He said he feltno pulsations but sug- gested that the current be turned on for few seconds again. Once more the body became rigid. At 7:15 the current was turned off for good.
 From the time Czolgosz had left his cell until the full penalty was paid, less than four minutes had elapsed. The physicians used the stethoscope and other tests to determine if any life re- mained, and at 7:17 the warden raising his hand, announced l: "Gentlemen, the prisoner is dead.o
 The witnesses filed from the chamber, many of them visibly affected, and the body was taken from the chair and laid on the operating table.
 The lengthy report prepared this afternoon by the autopsy surgeons related entirely to the brain and was of a high technical character. After scientifically describing, to the minutest detail the brain of the dead murderer, the report concludes as follows ::
 "No anomalies found. The brain in general is well develop ed, sufficiently marked with fis- sures and the lobes are in normal proportion"
 The surgeons have not yet drawn 8 report on what the autopsy disclosed as to the other organs.

A PROSPEROUS DROUGHT.
The Value of This Years Crop
 Greater Than Usual.

hS SdlNC OI HIS ears crop
 Greater Than Usual.
 It IS somewhat paradoxical that "the year of the drought" 1901, IS also a year of great prosperity among the agriculturalists of the United States. One becomes confused and amazed in trying to estimate what might have been but for the blight of excessive midsummer heat. Yet such are the laws of equalization and com- pensation that perhaps the gross profits might not have been much larger if the corn crop had been normal and the fruit crop a rec ord-breaker, says the Kansas City Star.
 The Orange Judd Farmer, re- garded as one of the best author- ities on farming processes and conditions in this country, de- clares that this is the most pros porous year in the history of the American farmer. While the shortage in the corn crop caused great losses to a large number of farmers, the total value of Amer ican crops was more than equal ized by the unusually large crop of wheat and the good prices de- handed by this commodity and many other farm products. Strange as 1t may seem, this agri- cultural paper is of the opinion that the potato crop, because of it's own shortage as much as any thing. else, was worth more than if it had been an average or ab- normally large yield. The wheat crop was worth 150 million dollars more than that of last year, while the total value of farm products is 400 millions more than that of 1900. The year 1896 is taken as a representative pe- riod with which to make compar- isons between the present high pressure prosperity and that which existed before the present conditions. Nine staple crops of the United States are worth 700 millions of dollars more than they were then, while there is a gain of about 1000 millions in live stock by the same comparison.
 Comparisons between the out put of the last five years (19O1 es- timated) and that of the preced- ing term of the same length is also interesting. On the five-year comparisons the cotton growers have gained 400 millions of dol lars. The cereals (wheat, corn, oats, barley and rye) for the past five years are valued at 6,26O millions of dollars, a gain of about 1000 millions over that of the same products of the five preceding years.
 Incidentally it might be said that the farmer has perhaps more than his proportion of the increase in circulated money, which is now S28 per capita, a gain of 33 per cent in five years.
 Itis satisfaction to note that along with his enlarged income, the American farmer is showing a progressive spirit. He is enter prising. He is willing to pay for those things that make his life easier and pleasanter. He takes up with new ideas of convenience. He is more generous in the edu- cation of his children and i'll the indulgence of his wife and daughters. He likes rural free delivery, the telephone and the closer contact that modern faclll- ties give him with his neighbors and the world at large. He goes about more than was his. won't. He is becoming a better citizen not in heart, but in the equipment that his greater prosperity has brought him.

y a private corporation whose very life depends upon national legis- lation and which I declare to you in my judgments one of the most nefarious trusts that has ever burdened the people of the South. Why do ] say that the very life of Senator Jones' American Cotton company depends upon national legislation? First, because it is a patent. Four companies were contending for the patent rights of this concern and in order to harmonize and keep down bene- ficial competition they pooled their companies and placed them in one great combine known as the American Cotton company, the objects and purposes of which was chiefly to control the cotton market of the world.
 "We do not need any senators and representatives in our nation al congress who invest in private enterprises to the detriment of the best interests of their constituent cy. The greatest act of states manship that was ever performed by our late President, William Mckinley, and the thing that en- deared him to me more than any other thing, except the tender re- gard and solicitude for his invalid wife, was the fact that he adopted the policy of Thomas Jefferson and refused to invest his salary in any stocks or bonds or securi- ties of any kind, but died with ac- tual cash in the bank. Why did he do this? Simply because he knew that his official duty might clash with his personal interests were he to do SO; and has it been left, my fellow citizens, for the head and front of the republican party to teach the chairman of our national Democratic commit tee wholesome lesson in state craft? Yet Senator Jones says this is good thing for the people. Then let him remove the restric- tions of a patent and let the people have free and full access to the benign blessings that flow from the organizations of this great company. He says his stock when last quoted on the market was only worth 10 cents on the dollar. Gentlemen, how many of you have got. anything that is quoted on the market? Here we have our senator carry ing around on his person stuff that is quoted in the market. Did you ever hear of old Jim Berry doing such thing?
 "But, gentlemen, he says it a good thing, 8 benefit and blessing to the people. Every crime that was ever committed in politics on earth has been committed in the name of the people. And every man that wants to perpetuate an unjust burden upon the people cries that tits simply for the bene- fit of the masses; and he says that his stock is quoted at 10 cents on the dollar; says it is just old stock Really it is not worth my fellow citizens, to hear him tell it, but he is worth S850, ,000 oft. Why, I would like to have S850,000 in Confederate money, just something we could count over, you know, and i'm agine we had something. That will not do, gentlemen. If his stock is not worth anything he ought to give it to some of these farmers to paper their houses with. 1 say to you that that stock is worth something, or D. R. Fran cis, one of the biggest financiers of this government today, and who isreported to be worth S4,- 100000 or S5,O00,O00, would not be fooling with it. He is one of Senator Jones partners in busi- ness.'
