NEWLY MARRIED,

She was newly married, and
did not know a little bit about
either housekeeping or shopping,
and she was giving her very first
order. 1t was a crusher; but the
grocer was a clever man, and was
used to all kinds of orders and
could interpret them easily.

A REVOLUTIONARY RELIC.

A priceless relic of Revolution
airy days has just been placed in
the statehouse at Columbia, S. c.
for safe keeping, 1t is the sword
which Tarletou used in leading
the British troopers at the battle
of Cowpens, that state, against
the patriots under Morgan, Pick
ems. Sumter and Marion.
The sword is the property of
Colonel 7. +. Pickens, and has
been placed with the sword of
Marion and other revolutionary
relics in the possession of the
state.
Tarleton lost the sword at the
battle of Cowpens, where the
patriots won such a signal victo-
ry which put fresh heart in their
brethren throughout the colonies

ORCHARDS WILL DO IT.

Is there not probability that
the apple business will be greatly
overdone?
The answer is emphatically,
No! For the reason that so small
a part of the world is fit for rails
ing apples. Apples cannot be
raised just anywhere.
Here in North Arkansas we
have the best land on earth for
apples and peaches.
In this connection, the follow
ing extract from a letter from e..
A. Gamble TO the Green Forest
Herald will be interesting: "We
have no hesitancy is saying that
there are thousands Of acres Of
just as good orchard land in Car
roll or Boone counties as there Is
in Benton and Washington coun-
ties, and if the people will turn
their attention to raising fruit, 1t
will be but a few years till they,
too, can market annually three
quarters Of a million dollars
worth of fruit. If the people Will
turn their attention to raising
fruit, it will be but a short time
till the sale Of fruit will bring
more money into the country than
any other industry. Where
there is a will there is a way and
mo time should be lost in setting
,out orchards. There is nothing
to hinder any wide awake farmer
from entering at once upon the
right road to success. "-Harr

HIS LOVE LETTER.

A colonel, on his tour Of in
spection, unexpectedly entered
the drilIroom, when he came
across a compile Of soldiers one of
them reading a letter aloud while
the other was listening, and, at
the same time, stopping up the
ears Of the reader.
"What are you doing there?"
the puzzled officer inquired of the
former.
"You see, colonel, I'm reading
to Atkins, who can't read him
self, a letter which has arrived
by this afternoons post from his
sweetheart"
"And you, Atkins, what in all
the world are you doing?"
please, colonel, | am stopping
up Murphy'S ears with both
hands, because | don't mind his
reading my sweetheart's letter,
but | don't want him to hear a
single word Of what she has

Champ Clarke struck a center
shot at the tariff system in a re-
cent address: "God made it my
duty and my pleasure to toll and
delve and dig to get money TO
spend on my wife and children,
said Mr.. Clark, and the reason |
hate the tariff system is that the
Dingley tariff bill takes lifty-sev-
en- out of every one hundred dol
lars | earn and gives it to some
fellow in the east that never saw,
never expect to see and never
want to see, for him to spend on
himself, his wife and children.
The iniquity Of The tariff system
lies just here, 1t takes from one
man to build up the business Of
another. 1t requires A to work
harder and longer that B may not
have to work so hard and so long.
One can properly object to pay
ing taxes to support some other

triumphant end OF the war at
Yorktown.
Colonel William Washington,
the gallant leader of the Ameri-
can cavalry, pressed Tarleton SO
closely in his fight as to be able
to have one exchange Of saber
blows with the British leader.
Washington's sword cut Tarletons
fingers and the British colonel
dropped his steel, spurred his
steed and obtained safety by
flight.
William Scott, the father Of
Colonel Dickson's mother, was an
American soldier in the battle of
Cowpens. He saw the fight be-
tween Washington and Tarleton
and picked up the latter's sword
when he dropped it. The sword
has ever since been preserved IN
the family as a priceless trophy
Of ancestral prowess in the Rev
olutionary war.
The sword or saber. for the
blade curves back 50 as to give
greater force to it's blows, is long
and heavy. The blade is a yard
in length, while the hilt is slight
ly over 6 inches long, with al
iron guard. There is a long
scratch on the guard and cut il
the iron knob at the end of the
hilt, which are believed to have
been made by the blow Of "a5h e
ingtons sword which forced Tar
Teton to drop his weapon or which
knocked it out of his hand.
The iron shank of the hilt is
cased in wood, which was cover
ed with leather, much Of which
has been worn away.
Upon the blade, close to the
hilt is engraved the word "Pot'
ter" probably the name Of its
maker.
There are many notches in the
blade, and some rust upon it
possibly made by the blood 0,
patriots who had felt its edge.
In this connection it will not b,
amiss to repeat two anecdote
about Tarleton and Washington.
The patriots ladies Of the Rev.
olutionary times had keen wits
On one occasion Tarleton in d
Dragging mood was telling pat
riot lady how he wished he ooulC
meet their boast9d Colone

was, "lf you had looked benin

On another occasion Tarletol
was speaking contemptuously {

he cannot even write his name
