 MT. Miehell's family will arrive this week and will become permanent resi- dents of Green Forest. MT.

IRWIN TRIED TO SEVER CUFFS.
And Lands In the County jail For
His Deed,

Upon the charge of aiding a prison
er to escape, Frank Irwin Jr. was
landed in Jail yesterday by Sheriff
Bell and Deputy Gatewood and will
have to explain away that serious
charge before the court.
TWINS little axe got him into all
this trouble.
1t is charged that when Luke Ford,
the black desperate, choked down
Jailer Poole the day before and made
good his escape, that Frank Irwin Jr.
assisted him.
Ford wore handouts, and two of the
pursuing party saw another negro
strike the cuffs several blows with an
axe in an effort to break them and
thus free the prisoner. It is said thai
Irwin did this.
Jailer Poole was still sore yesterday
from the rough usage received the day
before, but was still able to attend tC
his duties.

NEW IMMIGRATION.
Some Points of Interest Gathered
From Statistics.

The changing character of our in1mi-
grafton may be seen by the ten months
record of the present year, says the At
lanta Constitution.
The total immigration is 10000. of
which only $1,000 were from Great Britain
italy. Austria Hungary and Russia. OF
the $1,000 from the British islands, $4,000
were from Ireland.
Only 4,00e people came from the tropics.
which leads the report to say:
The fact that during that year the i'm
migration from Oceanica, India. Arabia.
Africa, South America, Central America.
and the West Indies, combined-the en-
tire tropical territory of the world
amounts to less than 1900 people, or less
than 1 per ceat of the total .mmigra-
ton, indicates the unwillingne5s of the
average citizen of tropical lands to trans
fer his residence to even so mild q elm
ate as that which the south part Of the
United States offers.
The further fact that during the year
1900 the total number of immigrants com
ing from the Hawaiian and Philippine is
lands into the United States was less
than $50 indicates still futher the 'un-
popularity of a climate such as our own,
even when joined with the material pros
perity such as exists in no other part of
the world with natives of the tropics.
Under the designation of immigrants
from the tropics are included all inl5ni-
grants from Mexico. Central America and
the West Indies, all of South Afro a.
Oceanica, all of Africa and the small
fraction of Asia which lies south CT the
Tropic of Cancer.
With our congenial population of $780,
900, we can readily assimilate these
strange people and make of them, in the
second generation, good American citi-
zens.
