What do you think of having a neat, breezy paper in Bald Knob?
 It seems to us that the time has come. No town worth any thing can hope to get along with out the help of the press. It is one of the necessities of a mod ern civilization. Let every one advertise his business; jet people know who you are and what you are doing; build up yourself and don't forget that you live in the town of Bald Knob. Keep in mind, what helps the town helps you. Put up your mite to help the paper, and thus show by your action that you have faith in the town and it's enterprise. Keep in mind the fact that you are a part and parsel of the peo- pie, and show it by helping the paper. If you have any business to advertise, advertise it. Sub scribe for the paper and pay in advance. Keep in mind that it takes doe to run a paper as well as brains. s.-By a Citizen in the Bald Knob Herald.

JAIL DELIVERY.

Last Monday evening about g o'clock two prisoners made their escape from the county jail. Jail or Short went in the jail to carry John Jones (col. some small arti- cles which he had asked to be purchased for him, and was open ing the cage door so Jones could get the articles which had been placed on the floor beyond the door, when Jones jerked the door from the jailers hands be- fore he had gotten it far enough back to latch into the wall, and made break for liberty. Jailor Short kept his presence of mind and dealt Jones several blows on the head with lock weighing about five pounds, but which had no other affect than to bruise Jones up little. While Short was scuff1ing with Jones Frank Wiley, white man, also made his escape. Al Shorts timely arrival on the scene prevented the escape of other prisoners. Wiley was captured that night about five miles below town, at Dennis Store on his way home. Up to the time of going to press Jones has not been apprehended. Augusta Vidette.

There are two distinct kinds of advertising, indifferent and wide awake. The former is always a failure and the latter never. The wide awake advertiser studies advertising and always says something to the point. The reading public, which includes 80 per cent of the whole, learn to read that kind of advertising. The truly prosperous merchant is the one who advertises, and hard times does not affect him until all others have been affect ed.
 Essex Peppin, the negro rapist of Cross county, an account of whose crime appeared recently in the News, was tried in the Cross county circuit court the first of last week, the jury re- turning with a verdict of guilty, which for rape cases means death.

WORDS OF ENCOORAGEME ENI.
 If there is anything that will stimulate and encourage a per son in doing anything in life it is the appreciation and words of praise of the public. It is the praise and encouragement of a commander to his soldiers in the midst of battle that causes the latter to rush madly forward with renewed vigor to the front, Everyone is subject to praise.
