Twenty-Five years ago yesterday
Mr.. and Mrs. W. R. B. Smyth began
life's journey together, and twenty
years of this time has been spent in
Mankato. A day Or two ago their
eldest daughter, Mrs. Herbert Snow,
bethought to spring surprise ON her
parents, and friends and neighbors to
the number of twenty-five were in
vited to rendezvous at the residence of
Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Wise at eight
O'Clock last evening and take posses
sion of the Smyth home in body.
This they did, and when the party
was ushered in, evidences were found
to prove conclusively that the surprise
was complete and overwhelming to
Mrs. Smyth, while little later in
the evening it was admitted that Mr..
SmytL had been given an inkling of
what was coming, although he had
not been let fully into the details of
the affair. After congratulations were
over, tables were prepared and pro-
gressive whist was INDUCED in until a
late hour. This was followed with
dainty refreshments under charge of
Mrs. Snow, who certainly did herse If
proud in the preparation and serving
of same, and she received ma ny COM
pliments for the very elegant manner
in which she had carried out the pro-
gram. She was ably assisted by---her
sister, Lima, and the Misses White.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smyth will not soon
forget last nights reminder of their
quarter century marriage anniversary
and the friends present will carry the
event for many years as pleasant re-
membrance. That these good people
may live many years to enjoy the we'll
earned fruits of happy life is the sin
cere wish of all their friends.

fell on his left leg. crushing the bones
very badly below the knee and making

They are making an effort to save it,

Grading Has Begun.

Joplin, March 21.-Yesterday morning 15 or 20 teams with an outfit of graders tools and scrap CTS went to work at Butterfield, clearing off the right of way for the Tennessee Western road which it is proposed to construct from Joplin to Bald Knob, where it will connect with a road already built to Memphis, Tenn.
 The enterprise is supposed to be backed by the Missouri Pacific, since it is to connect at Bald Knob, from which point the Iron Meun- tain runs direct to Memphis. The survey passes through the north east corner of Boone county, and touches Melville.

any other state to which it had ever been presented. He re- ferred with pride to the fact that graduates of the Green Forest High School had been, and were, in the Universities of Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri, California, Virginia, Michigan, Kansas, Tex as and Tennessee, and in every instance, without single excep- tion, whether in literature, law, or medicine, had taken high rank, and among the first honors of their respective classes; of all it's graduates, there was not one of whom it could be justly said that he was not making life a success.
 The concluding essay of the program was the "Valedictory" by Miss Amy Ramsey. It was full of memories and anticipa- tions, of hopes and doubts, of pathos, gratitude and feeling, and at it's close many an eye was dim with tears. THE TRIBUNE re- grets that it can not give in detail a synopsis of it and the other ex- cellent papers read.
 Each feature of the exercise was we'll received and the young ladies were the recipients of show CTS of floral offerings and a around of congratulations from their many friends. The best of order prevailed throughout, and more attentive and appreciative au- dience, it would be impossible to find.
 Especial mention is due the orchestra which furnished the music for the occasion. It was composed of Miss Lora Smith, and Messrs. John Buell., Ebert Rus sell, James Braswell, E. Wise and Richard Taylor, each of whom is a finished artist in his speciality. The rendition of the closing num- Der, "Home, Sweet Home," was most touching and at the close brought forth thunders of ap- plause. It is safe to say that no spectator present was disappoint- ed in his expectation and that every citizen of the town left with feeling of pride in our splended school, and heartiest wishes for it's future success.

It is Glass Le gis1ation.

Senator Buckner has intro- duced formula bill in the legis- lature and it has been reported favorbly by the committee of public health to whom it was re- ferred. It is known as Senate Bill No. 185 and provides that the complete formula must be pulp lished on each bottle of patent medicine sold in this state.
 That is the same as saying that none of the leading adver- tised patient medicines can be sold in the state after this bill is enacted.
 These secret formulas are about the only protection the manufacturers have against un- scrupulous imitators who do not advertise their preparations but make cheap limitations of stand ard patent medicines that pay the dealer an enormous profit and then claim them to be ''just as good"
 This bill is the rankest kind of class Legislation as it is of no benefit to anyone except the manufacturers of these imitation preparations.
 This law would not interfere with the sale of these imitation preparations as they always pulp fish what they claim to be the formula on each bottle.

Did He Blow Out the Gas?

The Kansas City Star of last Saturday contained the following interesting bit of news about d young man we'll known in Green Forest:
 "C. B. T. Enix, a lawyer from Eureka Springs, Ark, came to Kansas City Saturday afternoon and went to the Southern Hotel, 116 West 10th Street. Mr. Enix says he did not blow out the gas when he went to bed Saturday night, but the police surgeon found it necessary to administer restoratives copiously before the lawyer recovered consciousness. The hotel clerk heard MT. Enix's S struggles for breath and called for assistance in time to save his life."

A. J. TABOR.

In as much as the above ticket was refused a place on the official ballot by the county board of election commissioners, it be- comes necessary for the voters to write the names on the ballot for the place left for that purpose if they desire to vote this ticket.
 The law provides that as many blank spaces be put on the off, cial ballot as there are officers to be voted for. and that the voter may write any name he desires on the ballot and scratch out such names as he does not wish to vote for. See Sec. 2650, San del 6 Hills Digest.
 The above ticket is composed of men whose interests have been indentified with Green Forest for many years, and all are property owners and among the heavest tax payers of the town. Every one of these were contributors to the railroad bonus and four of them are on the railroad guar antee committee. This alone is sufficient evidence of their loy- atty to Green Forest.

Big Blaze at Eureka Springs.

The city of Eureka was awak- ened at Il o'clock on Friday night of last week by the dreaded fire alarm. .-'
 The damage reported by the Times Echo of Saturday was as follows:
 "On King street the buildings totally destroyed were the East Lynne, the Hill saddle barn be- longing to Dr. Floyd, the resi- dence of Judge Senate, and John Bridgford's barn. Nothing else was seriously damaged. On Spring street the residence of Park Worden was totally destroy ed, but the houses of w. P. Fuller and Mrs. H. F. Hawkins, on each side, were permitted to suffer but little comparatively. Nothing was saved in the hotel or Judge Senate's residence, and MT. and Mrs. Senate had just arrived yes terday to occupy the house for the summer. They live at Car thage, Mo.
 The saddles in the Hill saddle barn were destroyed, belonging to J. w. Hill, and John Bridgford estimates his loss at S7OO. The total losses to property will proba- bly, aggregate S1O,OOO.
 A serious result of the fire was the personal injuries sustained by some inmates of the East Lynne. Miss Lou Fisher, a relative of Miss Montgomery, who ran the house, jumped from the front porch to the street and sustained injuries to her spine, the extent of which cannot be ascertained. A brakeman on the railroad, /, named Andrew McNulty, was in bed when the fire occurred, and as he started to open the door to escape, was met by the flames. Seeing that his life was in great danger he ran head first through a window with no thought of con- sequences, and broke both arms and some ribs. In dazed con- dition he wandered up to the resi- dence of F. A. Pickard, and was taken in and cared for. He did not regain consciousness until this morning, and besides his physical fractures, as badly burned. An engineer on the road was also burned, whose name is Thos. J. Sullivan. Both were sent to their homes in St. Louis

 Our Exhibit at Paris.

I. T. Shahan of Green Fore st., who contributed some samples of "Missouri Queen" corn for the United States Agricultural dis play at the Paris exposition last year, is in receipt of the following letter from the Department at Washington:
 Washington, D. c. Mar. IA, 1901. MT. l. T. Shahan,
 Green Forest, Ark. Dear Sir:
 We send you by this mail Bulletin No. 24, the basis for the improvements of American wheat primarily as a mark of our ap- preciation of your kindness in contributing to the cereal exhibit which the United States made at the Paris Exposition through this Department, but also with the hope that it will contribute to the improvement of American agriculture. Our cereal exhibit was pretty generally conceded to be the best at the Exposition. The principal portion which in cluded your own samples, was entered as one large collective exhibit in the name of Secretary of Agriculture, and was awarded the grand prize. A full report of the exhibit as compared with the exhibits of other countries is now in course of preparation by the i Cerealist in charge of that work, and copy of this publication together with our bulletins or grain Investigations will be sent you as soon as issued.
 Very truly yours,
 ALBERT F. WOODS,
 Chief of Division.
 MT Shahan tells us that his crop of corn last year consisted of three acres of the "Missouri Queen" and that he gathered from this crop 162 bushels, or an average of 54 bushels to the acre. This is certainly a remarkable production of corn in this coun- try. MT. Shahan is able to sup ply a limited amount of seed corn of this variety to persons who may wish to give it a trial.

 The origin of the fire is un- known. It evidently started in the basement of the East Lynne, which accounts for the fact that it had gained such headway before it was discovered.'

In the western hemisphere there
have been few changes in territorial
lines. British title to the northwest
territory has been confirmed and the

almost equal to the discovery and an
nexation Of a new continent. Finally,
in Africa, there has been stupendous
progress. Sixty years ago Great Brit
tain owned Cape Colony and two or

GROWTH OF THE EMPIRE.
Territorial Expansion Wit
messed by Victoria.


messed by Victoria.
The territorial growth of the Brit
ish empire during the reign of Queen
Victoria has been prodigious. In
Asia between 1887 and 1883 the terri
tory of Scinde of the Sikhs, Tanjore,
Lower Burmah, Nagpur, Sattara,
Jhansi and Dude were brought under
British dominion. In the latter year
all British India was transferred
from the British East India company
TO the crown. And since that date
Upper Burmah, the Shan states, Be-
luchistan, Manipur and Chitral have
been annexed. Nor must the little
but enormously valuable territory Of
Hong-Kong be forgotten as one of
the acquisitions Of the reign.
Passing from Asia to Australasia,
even greater changes have occurred.
Before 1887 New South Wales and
Tasmania were the only organized
colonies in that region and the rest
of the great islands were practically
unknown land. Since then New Zea-
land, Vhtoria, South Arstrs'Rsia.

NOTABLE LEGISLATION.
Some of the Most Important Enacted
During Nictorin's Reign.

During Queen Victoria's reign there
were many notable acts of legisla-
ton. Several reforms demanded by
the chartists, then considered revolu-
tionary in the extreme, were quietly
and peaceably effected. The corn
laws were repealed and England en-
tered upon her marvellous prosperity
under free trade policy. The Irish
church was disestabished and the
odious system of purchase abolished
in the army. There was a sensational
feature connected with the last-named
measure. 1t was opposed by the
house of lords and defeated by a trick.
