 Deputy U. $. Marshal Jeff Harbert arrested Guy Mason of Winona Springs and took him before Commissioner Pen dergrass at Eureka Springs first of the week on charge of cutting government timber. The charge was not proven, however, and the defendant was released.
 N. Bradshaw of Kingston is here this week engaged in the making of an ar- tificiai leg for R. D. Galloway. He is a carpenter and stone cutter by trade, but has acquired quite local reputation as manufacturer of artificial limbs. We hope he will be able to fl our friend Richard out in good shape.
 The County Sunday School Conven- tion which was called to meet at Berry vile on last Saturday came close to be- ing a total failure, only a dozen or so delegates attending. Those present, however, took up the program and made the best of the occasion possible under the circumstances. It was decided to hold another convention in Green Forest sometime in August or September It IS to be hoped that more interest will be infused into the movement by that time and that the Green Forest meeting will be attended with much greater success.

No one who wishes to deal squarely is afraid to entrust business in the hands of MT West. He is courteous, obliging, easily approached on every occasion, yet b rim full of bu siness all the time.

 A new time card which effects the present schedules slightly will go into effect Sunday, the change being made in the me-table in this issue. On this same day new train will be put on the Frisco which leaves St. Louis at 2:30, a. m. This ought to enable the Forest at least on the afternoon train.
 THE TRIBUNE is not disposed to criti- else at all, but we would like to call the attention of the railroad officials to the fact that an extra siding is badly needed at the Green Forest depot. Such an ar- engagement would not only be of great value to the public but would largely facilitate matters for the company There is practically but one side of the yard accessible to wagons and teams and that is on the side of the main track. Berryyille has been given a convenience of this sort and the necessity for it is more than two to one greater in Green Forest. We hope Green Forest will be given house track spur, without un- due deltH.

The eye and ear have long been

the sensitiveness Of all human organs
seems gross enough. A Photographic
plate, coupled with a telescope, will
reveal the presence Of millions Of
stars whose light does not affect the
retina in the least. The microscope.
too, with its revelations Of the world
of the infinitely small, tells US how
crude,,r after all is this most delicate
Of the senses. Indeed, we may liken
it to piano where only single octave
towards the middle, sounds. From the
ultra violet to the lowest reaches Of the
spectrum Is range of some nine &C.

save for our new mechanical senses, we
should never have been conscious Of
but one.

That there should be q demand for

Germans have for long time re-

Great Britain and the continent, where
the hospitals have for years nOurished
certain patients with raw beef and
raw mutton. The raw beef sandwich
has also had place in the regimen
of New York hospitals for a long time.

One Of the strange traits Of little
children is their utter misunderstood
ing Of many simple things, and the
endurance Of this misunderstanding
with them through years and years.
Thus. there Is a lawyer Of this city
who thought, until he was twenty or
twenty-one years old, that there was
such a word as "pard1narsens" In the
language. His father, religious man,
had said grace always at the table.
and the boy had heard incuriously,
three times day, "pard-narsens." in
the grace, without comprehending In
the least that pardon our sins" were
the words his father actually had
spoken. This boy was always mis-
apprehending religious things. The
phrase, "For what we may receive"
enta cred his brain each Sunday as,
"What Mary Seeve," and he would
wonder idly who Mary Seeve might
be. Even the first line of his nightly
prayer meant nothing to him.
"Nowalaymy" he pronounced 1t. in one
swift word, and he neither knew nor
cared to know what "nowalaymy"
meant.

UTILIZING PRAIRIE SUNSHINE,

Kansas Farm,

An Irrigation Experiment to Be Made or
Kansas Farm.
An interesting experiment will be
made early next month on farm near
Great Bend, Kan, to test the available
ity Of using the prairie sunshine In .rri-
CATION operations. A drawback in To-
cal attempts at irrigation has been the
expense Of lifting the water from wells.
The vast sheet of water lying from ten
to thirty feet below the surface over
the Arkansas Valley offers an mex
haustible source of moisture, provided
the pumps can be run at q sufficient
speed and with economy.
A solar motor will be set at work
pumping from wells that have not
been lowered by flow of 500 gallons
per minute. An umbrella like frame,
thirty-three feet in diameter, lined
with hundreds of small mirrors on the
under side, which is faced toward the
direct rays of the sun, and kept so
throughout the day by clock-work ma
chinery, focuses the heat of the suns
rays on boiler, the steam generated
being used in pumping the water. A
lifting power Of HOO gallons q minute
