Honestly Answer This.

Honestly Answer This.
Is not the word of representative
citizen of Pine Bluff more convincing
than the doubtful utterances of peo-
pie living everywhere else in the
Union? Read this:
G. H. Garfield. locomotive engineer
on the Cotton Belt route, running be-
tween Pine Bluff and Texarkana, resi-
dence 1902 West Sixth avenue, says:
II am pleased more than pleased, that
an opportunity has been given me to
add my indorsation touching the mer-
its of Doans Kidney Pills. Not only
did suffer for years with dull pain
in my back, but annoyance from the
kidney secretions, accompanied the
former. If the jolting and jarring OF
the engine was not the primary cause
of my trouble it certainly aggravated
it when deep-seated. Be that as it
may. spent great deal of money and
used lot of medicine without getting
any permanent results. When l saw

The Elks formally opened house
Thursday nieht, by giving a lawn
social at their new home, corner Of
Main and Eighth streets. This
building was erected in the palmy
days Of Lexington, and was a
"Branch of the State Bank OF Mis-
souri,. Millions of dollars have safely
reposed in its vaults, 1t is probably
the best constructed building in the
county, its walls being thick and
strong, tine rooms finished in bard
wood, and the doors and windows
handmade. Our Eiks have secured a
magnificent home, which viii last for
ages. They have not yet furnished
the rooms, but this is for the future
The lawn social last night was a
complete success, and was largely
attended. The tables were all liber-
ally patronized, the refreshments
we're up to the high standard that
was expected, the receipts were sat-
isfactory, and everybody we'll pleased.
The Marine band furnished the music,
and a large monograph filed in every
moment when the band was not busy.
A kangaroo court furnished much
amusement, and made many dollars
for the Elks. The boys were arrested
for walking with girls, and for being
alone; for wearing hats and for being
bareheaded. A fine of 25 cents
always followed, and was always paid.
Judges Chinn and Reid Ryland ard
Clerk Geo. Venable were in their
element. No appeals we're allowed.
The 'police" were extremely vigilant,
and no innocent Elk escaped. Every
one present has a good word for this,
the first entertainment Of our Elks.

Died, at the residence Of his aunt,
Mrs. William P. Beck, at Pueblo,
Colorado, August 10th, of typhoid
fever, Rev.. John B. Andrew, aged
about 80 years, only son of Captain
and Mrs. S. j. Andrew, of this city.
Mr.. Andrew had been i~ndisposed
for some time, but about a month
ago became so feeble that he came
here from Eminence, Ky. on a visit
to his parents. They went with him
to Colorado, hoping that the change
would be beneficial. Their hopes
were in vain. He grew steadily
worse, and Sunday morning passed
away. His father and mother were
with him at his death.
Mr.. Andrew was one OF the best
young men we ever knew. Born,
reared and educated here, be was
known to all, and beloved by all. He
was pastor Of the Presbyterian church
at Eminence, KY, for several years
past, and was as well beloved there
as here. He leaves a father, mother
and two sisters, Mrs. Albert G. Young
and Miss Elizabeth Andrew, all OF
this city. Just four months ago Cap
tain and Mrs. Andrew lost a daughter,
and this blow falls on them before the
wound has had time to heal. Our
whole community will grieve with
them over the untimely death OF
their only son.
The funeral services took place al
the Presbyterian church Thursday
afternoon at $3.50 O'Clock, conducted
by Rev. E. G. G rdon, and were
largely attended.

sideTation OF the fact that the COVER

During my term as governor l have

murderers have been executed during
that time. In nearly every one OF
these cases strong appeals were made
for executive clemency. | declined to
graat clemency because there were no.
fasts OF circumstances sufficient to
warrant an interference with the
findings Of the courts and iuries, and
for the further reason that | believe
the best way TO secure obedience TO

"As governor, therefore, / have
given no excuse for mob violence in
any county of the state, however
much it might be provoked. | feel
that it is the duty of sberiffs aud
other officers Of the law, charged with
the responsibility Of preserving life,
TO make every effort to protect prison
ers against mob violence, The people
Of Missouri desire a strict enforce

governor l will uphold the yerdicts of

SLAUGHTER
OF NATIVE AMERICAN ANIMALS.

Just preparatory to the formation of the Ma
tioaal Geological Park. public interest much eS-
cited by the almost total extinction of the American
buffalo, or bison which covered the country as
far east as Virginia with herds of almost countless
numbers and which. rereating before civilization,
had finally succumbed to the unchecked eStrava-
gance of avaricous hunters and the repeating rifle
until there remained but few herds, small in num-
bers and widely scattered
This is one of the most striking and appalling
cases of the effect of the contact of man with ami
mate nature but many others also noted which,

that most of the larger native animals indigenous to
this continent were doomed to extinction unless ac-
