JUDGEsHIP ANNOUNCEMENTS
R. H. POWELL.

Judge R. H. Powell, for the past forty years resident of Independence and Izard counties, announces himself in this issue as a candidate to succeed Judge Fulkerson on the circuit bench of this district
 A native of Tennessee, Judge Pow ell came to Arkansas at the breaking out of the civil war, making Batesville his home and enlisting with the army of the Confederacy. He served through that conflict, part of the time a prisoner of the Yankees. In 1868 he was elected to succeed Judge By CTS in the fifth circuit, but was recon structed out by the "carpet- baggers'' in '68. Under the new constitution of "A he was elected to the circuit judge ship over such men as Byers, Aber- nathy, Coleman and Boswell, and re- elected in '84, carrying every county ln the circuit, over General Robert Neill. In 1886 and also in '94 he was again honored by the people of his circuit.
 In all these years of service upon the bench, his decisions were charac- terized by fairness and wide ac- quaintance with the law and prece- dents of other courts. His popularity, as shown by his strength at the polls, is a fitting testimonial of the esteem in which he is held as man, and the re- spect accorded his rulings as magis- trate.
 With gallant record in the 'slost cause," his veteran friends are nu- merous and loyal, and as one of the wheel-horses in his party councils and campaigns, his candidacy deserves the careful consideration of the voters of his party

F. D. FULKERSON.

In this issue of the INDEPENDENT appears the announcement of Judge F. D. Fulkerson, of Batesville, as a candidate for the office of circuit judge of the Third judicial circuit for sec ond term.
 For the past four years he has pre- sided i'll our circuit court and mixed with the people of Jackson county until his record and acquaintance make any words upon our part super huous. That he has been called upon to adjudicate questions of law upon which our people were divided, diff ferences that were bitterly contested upon either side, is we'll remembered, but never did he waver in a strict and impartial interpretation of the law. His personal integrity has never been questioned and the judgments of his court have not only been regarded as those of an able, but conscientious and honest jurist.
 Oflnineteen cases appealed from his court to the higher legal authorities, in which decisions have been announc- ed, only two have been reversed, a most remarkable record. A close student of law, he was, before elevat- ed to the bench, regarded as an at torney of keen discernment and we'll versed in the decisions of the courts, and as judge he has ably sustained this reputation.
 AS loyal partisan, his public life has furnished abundant proof of his sterling democracy.

 He was born at Fort McKavette Texas, and is a quiet and companion able young man. He is very modest in referring to himself, but was interview ed under protest yesterday by a Repub- lican reporter, for his story is interest ing.
 MT. Lee is a cowboy both by choice and circumstance. He had to be a cow boy for he was born in a COW country and likes the busine ss In January. 1S9S he wandered into El Paso, and as cow boys sometimes do went up against the tiger. Luck came his way and he de- cided to use the money in seeing the wonders of the world he had read about so much. He went 70 Tampico, Mexico. took ship to New York, where he stayed short time, sailed for Gibraltar. then through the Suez canal to Ceylon. from
 
 hila' Australia, back to Manila, Yoko- hama. Hong Kong. Shanghai, Annoy. Yokohama again, again to Honolulu, then to san Francisco and Phoenix.
 He says he had many exciting exper- iences during his long trip but would not recite them for fear of gaining too much notoriety. Speaking of seasick- ne'" he said he was feeding the fishes before he got out Of the harbor of Tam pico and he never did get SO thorough ly cured of 1t but that 1t would return on the appearance of the slightest rough weather.
 But altogether he had splendid time and learned a great many things that cannot be found in books. At New York he provided himself with a cam era and put in a great deal of his time

| mother, and the divorce of the latter lover followed in rapid succession. The rumored engagement of Miss Mary Scott is her second experience with the Vinnage family, or rather that 1 of Mrs. Vinnage's step-mother, Mrs. R C, Webb. In the present she gains d
 husband, and In the former she lost a lover. Here comes the most interestne of the series of romances.
 Miss Scott made her home in this city with Mir. and Mrs R. C. Webb at the | time when the Iowa soldiers were en- camped at the fair grounds and was said to be the promised bride of Lieu tenant R. G. Gaines of Greenfield an officer of Company I, Fifty-frst Iowa regiment One evening when Miss Scott desired to visit the camp grounds Mrs.
 Webb volunteered to take her there in her carriage, They both remained to mess with Lieutenant Gaines, and it was then that Mrs. Webb first met the young officer.
 The death of Mrs. Webbs husband occurred July 6, 1900, and only a short time later it was reported that she be- came engaged to Dr. O. D. Benson, a prominent practitioner of Des Moires. About this time the Iowa soldiers re- turned from the campaign in the Phil ipplnes and Lieutenant Gaines was of their number, Instead of returning to WOO Miss Scott he became devoted to Mrs, Webb, the widow, and their we'd ding was matter Of only few weeks time. The doctor was forgotten by the widow and her soldier husband forgot the young lady who wrote to him dur ing his sojourn on Filipino battlefelds.
 The climax in Seattle-tha rumored double wedding-is intended to get ev- erything right. heal the wounds of the forgotten young lady. console the young man who was bereaved. and cause Vim mage to forget the disheartening news he received from his wife while in Chi cago.

The various weak nesses which afflict their delicate or ganism spring from inflammation or catarrh of the mucous lining, ,and Pe-ru-na is specific for catarrh in any organ of the body. Any congestion of a mucous membrane simply means catarrh of the organ affected. This is why Pe-ru-na cures all sorts of troubles where other remedies fail. If there is catarrhal affection the matter with you anywhere Pe-ru-na will cure you.
