Used to Crow Hours In Lent.

During the season of Lent"
says the London Chronicle, ut was
anciently the custom of the watch
men to crow the hour Of the night
instead of shouting it, the intention
being doubtless to remind sleepless
sinners Of the effect the third crow.

This custom, too, was observed at
the royal court, an officer known az

the duty within the precincts of the
palace. On the first Ash Wednes.
day after the accession of the House
of Hanover, as the then Prince Of
Wales, afterward George H., was
at supper, this officer entered and

Threw Dice for the Maids Money.

"A quaint and interesting custom
was observed the other day at the
Guildford town hall, England,
when two domestic servants threw

two centuries and half ago, to

should throw the highest number
with two dice in competition with
another aspirant for the money.
Clara Howard and Florence Ansell,
both of whom had been in one serv-
Ice over eight years, entered the
lists, and the former-who threw
seven against the latter's fve-was
declared the winner, and received

Senator, Costly Bread and Milk.

A distinguished senator Of the
United States went to Atlantic City
a week or 30 ago for few days
stay, relates a Washington corre-
spondent. He took room at one
OF the American plan hotels, agree
ing to pay So day for his meals
and room. The next morning after
he arrived he was seized with an at
tack of rheumatic govt. The doc
tor he called told him he must eat
nothing but bread and milk. He
stayed at the hotel for FIVE days, and
ate nothing but bread and milk
three times day, touching nothing
on the elaborate menus. On the
sixth day he sent for his bill This
is the way it came: ITO room and
board, five days at So, $40. To fif-
teen dishes bread and milk, at as
cents, S375." But" expostulated
the senator. 81 ate none of the
meals. You shouldn't charge me
for the bread and milk" The clerk
silently pointed to the line, dishes
not on the bill of fare are charged
extra" and the senator says he will
make it cost them a thousand dol
lars by the time he has told all his
friends to keep away.

An Emperor's Plain Diet

Emperor Francis Joseph of Atm
tria is very plain in his tastes and
habits. At 6 o'clock in the morning
he takes his breakfast, consisting
of some cold meat, coffee and fresh
made bread and cake. Between IL
and l o'clock he takes his dejeuner,
two dishes of meat and some ordi-
nary pastry, Dinner is served at
8 o'clock sharp. All his meals are
served in his library at his writing
desk. Not even a tablecloth is
spread. His personal valet on duty
receives the dishes in an antecham-
Der on large tray and puts the
tray before the emperor on his desk.
Often the emperor takes spoonful
OF soup between two signatures.
He is a very busy man. With the
meal the menu for next days dinner
is sent up and laid before the en-
peror. 1t contains two soups, pat
ties, fish, two entries, two roasts,
two desserts, pastry, cheese, fruit,
etc. and the emperor with blue
pencil crosses off whatever he does
not want. The emperor does not
care much for wine. He prefers a
glass Of beer.

Victims OF the Catastrophe are Buried Under
the Debris
The Mountain Exploded the Entire Cap Be-
ing Blown Away, the Land Heaved and
SWeled, and There Was a Great
Commotion of the Sea,

Une laJtef feceded 0OO feet all
along the west coast. Returning
with greater strength, a big wave
covered the whole sea front of St.
Pierre, but caused little damage,
ashore or ahoat. Terrible deton
ations were heard hundreds of
miles northward, followed at If
regular intervals by continued
noises. The town was lit up by
lurid flames from the mountains.
The terror-stricken inhabitants ran
for the hills in their night clothes
screaming shouting and wailing,
mad with terror. The Plissono
family escaped to Saint Turaina,
in steamer. Thirty five persons
mostly women and children, ar
rived here in the forenoon of the
sixth and furnished the above de-
tails. The men remained at
Martinique. The same afternoon
Geographic communication was
interrupted with both the islands
of Martinique and St. Vincent.
During the afternoon of the eighth
the British steamer Roddam, which
had left st Lucia at mid night
on the seventh for Martinique,
crawled slowly into the Castries
harbor, unacceptable, gray with
ashes, her rigging dismantled and
her sails and awning torn and
charred.
Captain Whatter reported that
having just cast anchor off st.
Pierre at : Il. III. III fine weather,
succeeding an awful thunderstorm
during the night, he was talking
to the ships agent, Plissono who
was in a boat alongside, when he
saw n tremedous cloud of smoke
and glowing cinders rushing
with terrific rapidity over the
town and port, enveloping in an
instant the former in sheet of
flame, and raining fire on board.
The agent had just time to climb
on board when his boat disappear
ed.
Several of the crew of the Rod
dam were quickly scorched to
death.
By superhuman efforts, having
steam up, the cable was slipped,
the steamer backed away from
the shore, and nine hours later
managed to reach Castries. Ten
of the Roddam's men were lying
dead, ,contorted and burned out
of human semblance, among the
black cinders which covered the
ships deck to a depth of six in
ches. Two more of the crew have
since died. Two of the survivors

The Pecos times is of the opin-
ion that Judge Smith, who is n
candidate for congress in this
district, should mu2zle his "head
bugleman." The Times does not
think that every man who is sup
porting Dean has been Graded Off
or belongs to n combination, as
charged by the Smith crowd,
And the Times is right. The
Smith crowd" is wrong in charg-
ing that every man who is sup
porting Dean has been traded off,
The charge is entirely too sweep
ing. 1t is possible that there
could be found one or two Dean
supporters in many of the coun-
ties of the district who have not
been traded off.

STORY OF THE CATASTROPHE.

Point-a-Pitae, Gaudeloupe Is
land, May 10.-The morning of
May D, Gaudeloupe learned that
the Mont Pelee volcano, in Mar
Unique, had been in a state of
eruption since Sunday, May B,
throwing out ashes, The same
day violent thunder storms began
here. Tuesday very heavy storm
occurred and loud detonations
were heard, At noon came n ru-
NOR that lava was flowing from
Mont Pelee and 300 lives had been
lost at st. Pierre. All that. day
were heard loud noises like the
discharge of heavy artillery, afar
off. 1t is known that these noises
were from the Martinique volcano.
In the afternoon the cables with
Martinique all disappeared. A
very heavy thunderstorm then
broke over Gaudeloupe and lasted
for long time and rumors were
current that the Soufriere volcano
in Gaudeloupe was more active.
The earth was trembling at Bas-
seterre and volcanic rumblings
were heard. News of the destruction
III Martinique was received by the
war vessel Suchet Friday morning.
Mont Pelee, n volcanic mountain
some ten miles north of st. Pierre
the commercial capital of Martin
ique, is the mountain which made
a faint show of eruption fifty
years ago. On May 3, last, it be-
gan to throw out dense clouds of
smoke. At midnight the same
day flames accompanied with
rumbling noises, lighted the sky
over an immense area, causing
widespread terror.
May 4 hot ashes covered the
whole city of st. Pierre an inch
thick and made Mont Pelee in
visible. At noon May 3, a stream
of burning lava rushed 4, 400 feet
down the mountain side, followed
che dry bed of a torrent and
reaching the sea five miles from
the mountains in 3 minutes. In
its rush the fiery flood swept from
its pathway plantations, buildings
factories, cattle.and human beings
over n breadth of about a hall
mile. At the rear of the mouth
of the riviera Blanche stood the
Guerin sugar factory, one of the
finest in the island. 1t is now
completely entombed in lava.
The tall chimney alone is visible.
One hundred and fifty persons
are estimated to have persisted
there including the owner.
AS the lava rushed into the sea,

Something Good.

So many go to their druggist
and merely ask for something
good" for cough or cold. Now,
if the druggist has several reme-
dies he certainly will sell the one
that does not cost much. When
you go to n drug store be sure
you know what you want. Ask
for Mexican Cough Syrup if you
want the incest and quickest
cough cure 25e will buy. Take
no other.

"Where is my Boy To Night"

A gray haired father remarked
to the writer, n few months since
that it seemed TO him that life with
a majority Of people is misfit
and delusion that most parents
spend the best years of their lives
in making proper provision for
their children, only to find life
evening sun setting among the
storm clouds of trouble, brought
on by the thoughtless acts and
indiscretions of the children;
that at the time of life when the
parents should be enjoying the
fruits of their years of labor their
children were getting into trouble
in one way and another, thus
making for the parents trouble
that should be spared to those of
gray hair who have spent the best
years of their lives making pro-
vision for those to come after, as
they should.
Where is your boy tonight?
In the mad rush for the possess
sion of the material things of life,
something to leave to the boys
that they may lose in day, have
you forgotten the momentous
question that may effect your hap
piness in the sunset of life and
may cause your boy to drift off
into places and associations that
will wreck and ruin him and unfit
him for the duties of honorable
citizenship, when he should be
ready to assume the sterner and
more responsible duties among
men, because you We're too busy
with money making to give them
that parental attention, which is
due to every son.
81 know about n half dozen
boys who are going to the devil rs
fast as drink, cards and other
kindred objects can carry them.
They gather almost nightly in a
certain dive and play cards for
money, and the way they spend
their money is worse than the
way they get it, said a young
man who seemed TO be on to the
ropes, to the writer, one day this
week, and further, he mentioned
some names we were surprised to
hear.
Whose boy? Where is your
boyl Do you know as much
about it as you should know? If
it be the mission of n newspaper
to do good, we hope that this hint
may save some parent trouble in
future. 1t is written in the spir-
it of the Golden Rule" and that
some one may profit by its read
ing.

of the crew were loud in their
praise of the heroic conduct of
the captain, steering their vessel
with his own hands, which were
badly burned by the rain of fire
which kept falling on the ship for
miles after she got under way.
Beyond burns all over his body,
the captain is safe, as also the
ships agent, though he is badly
scorched.
Mr.. Pl,ssono is believed the sole
survivor of the 10000 inhabitants
of the town and all the shipping
in the port has been utterly de-
strOyed. The West Indian e. Pana-
ma Telegraph Company's repair
ing steamer went first. then the
Quebec Lines Roraima, Captain
Muggah of the latter waving his
hand in farewell to the Roddam
as his vessel sank with a terrific
explosion.
The British Royal Mail steamer
Esk, which called off Martinique
at 10 O'Clock last night, reports
standing off shore fivemiles sound
ing her whistle and sending up
rockets. She received no answer.
The whole sea front was blazing
for miles.
The Esk sent a boat ashore,
but it could not land on the ac-
count of the terrific heat, which
was accompanied by loud explos-
ions. Not a living soul appeared
ashore after the boat had waited
for two hours. Fire and ashes
fell all over the steamer.
The steamer was loaded with
foods of all kinds and was sent
back to Martinique at Z p. m.
The Captain of the vessel report
ed that some thirty persons left
st. Pierre by the 6 o'clock boat
Thursday morning for Fort de
France and, consequently, were
saved. All attempts to get in
st. Pierre are barred by fire.
The closest observation possible
showed houses still blazing and
streets strewn with charred bodies.
1t is certain that the whole town
and neighboring country for
miles is utterly destroyed, and it
is feared here that few, if any in
habitants escaped. The volcano of
the island of St. Vincent has
burst out in sympathy. A steam.
er returned from there last night
reports that the northern part of
the island was in flames and cut
off from assistance by a continu-
Gus stream of burning lava, ashes
falling in heavy showers as far as
100 miles away. Kingston, the
capital of st. Vincent is safe.
but people here are very anxious
as to the fate of that island. Do
mlnlca and st, Lucia have very
active geysers, but they show no
departure from normal condi-
lions. Foodstufis of all kinds are
urgently wanted.
Nearly every one here has rela-
tives in Martinique and intense
sorrow prevails.
All the stores here are closed
and the flags are flying at half
mast. The mountains of Guada-
loupe are shrouded in thick
clouds, and heavy storms contin-
ne. The people are on edge with
anxiety, fearing that La Soufri-
ere may become active. A light
earthquake shock or increase in
the smoking of the La Soufriere
would precipitate a panic here.
1t is believed, however, that there
is now no local danger,

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

By local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear.. There is only, one way to cure deafn ess, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in- famed condition of the mucus lining of the Eustachain Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have rumbling soundor imper- feet hearing, and when it is en- tirely closed, deafness is the re- suit, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; Nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucus surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

NEXT Wednesday is McKinley's birthday. Gov.

The National Memorial Association is urging contribu- tions from all sources, and it is hoped some liberal allowances will follow, that memorial will soon be erected which will fittingly honor the memory of our martyr ed president and at the same time will honor those who will give aid to this most praiseworthy cause. Therefore, in obedience to a request made by the Hon. Wm. R. Day. president of the Mckinley National Memorial As- sociation, I earnestly request that upon the 29th day of Janu- ary the schools and churches of Arkansas will conduct special exercises and take up contribu- tions for this monument fund, the contributions, when collected, to be transmitted to the Hon.

THIS is the other side. We have been saying things of late of the importance of frugality as a means of getting along in the world. On account of the great preponderance. of free-handed people-those who spend as they go and who wouldn't and ,couldn' t keep dollar in their pockets un- der any consideration-it is very easy for the thrifty and frugal to pile up competence. The num- Der of spendthrifts help to make a community prosperous. A town where they are all frugal soon becomes as quiet as grave yard. But there comes 8 time when the frugal, in one way or another, is taxed to support the shiftless. That in a measure evens up things.
