BRITISH BULLs.-Englishmen are as
apt to perpetrate bulls as 1rishmen
Here are a couple that were exhibited
at parliamentary election:
Expenditure on so vast scale,
proclaimed one speaker who was urg-
ing national economy, will in time
empty even the inexhaustible Golfers
Of Britain and convince her reckless
legislators too late, when the mare Is
stolen, that they must close that barn
door through which for years the flood
Of extravaganza has poured uncheck-
ed"
The second speaker did even better
although it is fair to allow something
for a man who. hooted down by de-
risive opposition, Is naturally too ex-
cited and indignant to carefully consid-
er his words"
Gentlemen, gentlemen" he protest
ed. THE cry Of the cat, the crow Of
the cock and the hiss Of the gander are
not argument. True, they may for the
time overwhelm the feeble voice Of one
man in their roaring tide, but not al
their leaguered forces, howsoever arm
ed and arrayed for combat. shall avail
finally to extinguish that beacon torch
of experience, still gripped fast and helt
high in his unfaltering hand to guide
safely through the breakers the strain
ing eyes of posterity!"

Told by a Health Officer.

"You see some funny things on in
coming Ships" said Quarantine Physi-
clan Heiskell the other day.. ION one
occasion in the dim and distant past I
boarded g. steamer as she arrived
and went down into the cabin. There
were the captain and the first officer.
both Of whom had been looking on the
wine somewhat freely, engaging in tar
get practice, with a customs officer,
also a little unsteady looking on
and applauding. When I entered the
captain had a cat rifle and the first
officer held playing card.
"'See me 1t the bloomin' card, Doc
tor said the captain.
IT demonstrated out of consideration
for the first oncer's salary. but the lat
ter insisted on my seeing an exhibition
Of the captains skill.
"'E can it it every time, he said.
1.-The captain picked up the little rifle
before I could say any more, and the
first officer held up the card. The cap
tain blazed away, and, sure enough, hit
the card, at Whlch the custoihs oiiieei
applauded rapturously.
Nothing would satisfy them but that
the captain must try again, and try he
did in spite of my efforts to dissuade
him.
simultaneously with the crack Of the
rifle there was a howl from the first
officer. The bullet had lodged in the
knuckle of his fingers.
"'My word, doctor, you're a lucky
man." was the captains comment.
You're just in time to get case
"I dug the bullet out Of the officers
finger, and all the time he kept saying:
That's chronic, doctor, that's chronic
meaning 1 suppose that it hurt.-Bal-

FLANDERS of Reporters.

A friend sends The Companion an eX-
tract from a newspaper in which a dis
tinguished citizen whom the reporter
meant to call venerable" is spoken OF
as 1.-THE vegetable judge" The error is
evidently the compositor's. Often how
ever, such mistakes begin with the re-
porter, and the compositor, who Is un-
der strict rule to follow the copy ex-
actly does not correct even obvious
blunders in the manuscript. Mr.. I. l..
Deyinne, the New York printer, in his
book, "The Practice Of Typography,
gives the funny mistakes Of printers.
A speaker made this statement:
I'm these days clergymen are expect
ed to have the wisdom and learning of
Jeremy Taylor"
The reporter wrote and the compos-
itor repeated, the wisdom
and learning of a journeyman tailor"
Another speaker quoted these lines:
"Oh, come, thou goddess fair and free,
In heaven yclept Euphrosyne.'
They were printed as the reporter un-
derstood the speaker:
"oh, come, thou goddess fair and
free.
In heaven she crept and froze her
knee"
Another orator quoted this line from
Tennyson's "Locksley Hail."
Better fifty years Of Europe than a
cycle Of Cathay."
But the quotation was written and
printed:
Better fifty years of Europe than a
circus in Bombay"
One of the worst perversions Of a
hackneyed quotation-incorrectly CIV
en- by the speaker-is this, which
seems to be the joint work Of the zeal
Gus reporter and the equally reckless
printer:
"Amicus Plato, amicus Socrates, sed
major veritas."
"I may cuss Plato. I may cuss So
crates, said Major Veritas.'

THE PEACE OF THE WORLD.
1t Seems to be In the Hands OF the
United States.

L
United States.
1t Is necessary to say two things in
regard to the political crisis through
which the world is passing at the pres
ent moment. The first is that it is i'm
possible to obtain substantiation Of the
gravest rumors which are now cur
rent, and the second, that the RESPONSE
bility for keeping the peace Of the
world may be thrown entirely upon the
American and German governments.
1t is not necessary to discuss in de-
tail the most alarming reports which
have gained circulation, save to say
that they do not receive credence in
this or any European capital. This
much is true.
The Russo-French declaration re-
garding the Anglo-Japanese alliance
has been followed or accompanied by
important negotiations. France and
Russia have asked the other powers,
including the United States. Germany,
Austria and Italy, what would be their
respective attitudes toward the new al
lance. The inquiry In at least two
cases included the question whether
neutrality would be maintained in case
of war between Great Britain and ia
pan on the one hand and France and
Russia on the other. It has been In
ferred In certain quarters that II as
surances of neutrality had been OBJ
tained from the United States and Ger
many war would have followed almost
Immediately. This inference Is not,
perhaps, absurd, but nothing In the ma
ture Of confirmation can be obtained
from the best informed authorities.
On the other hand, the British foreign
office, which is fully aware Of these in
ter-national inquiries, utterly discredits
any belligerent significance. It Is
pointed out that 1t Is the diplomatic
custom to exchange notes between gov
ernments regarding the Interpretation
and effect Of any important treaty.
There cannot be any doubt that Russia
and France would be exceedingly
pleased to obtain pledges Of neutrality
from America and Germany. The re-
fusal Of such a pledge by both coun-
tries would almost centainly prevent
war.
There is good reason to believe that
Germany has already given such re-
fusal; in other words, the Kaiser insists
that he will retain complete liberty OF
action.
England is confident that the United
States will take similar attitude. She
does not expect America to come to her
assistance, but she does believe that the
Washington government will do moth
ing to precipitate a conflict which
might result in the destruction OF
American trade interests in the Far
East.
It is not going too far to say that a
declaration at the present moment OF
neutrality in case Of war might preci-
pitate that war. This must be fully
understood by the Washington govern
ment. Hence the confidence here that
no such declaration will be forth-com-
ing.
Todays news from South Africa
which indicates that the Beers desire
to negotiate for peace. has an import
ant bearing on the situation. II by any
possibility Russia has belligerent de-
signs she will either bring them quickly
into action before England can trans

dia or she will abandon them entirely

her cousin, Mrs. J. A. Hilton, at Ker.

was vaccinated. her jaws seemed
strongly affected, and she at once be.

man Of her acquaintance who had
been similarly affected after Vacc1na'

To Organize a State Fair.

The following call has been issued by citizens of Little Rock:
 Whereas, The state of Arkansas in the last decade has rapidly in- creased in population, in the devel- opment of her agricultural and min eral resources, and her people have put forth large individual efforts for the improvement of her differ ent enterprises, especially in the raising of hogs, poultry, grain, cot ton and fruit and
 Whereas, No state effort has been made on the part of the people for any organized attempt to exhibit and develop her agricultural, indus trial, commercial and other indus tries, and the state has long been a laggard in this line, while other states have far outstripped her by systematically displaying their ad- vantages at state and county fairs and industrial exhibits. Now, there fore, be it
 Resolved, For the purpose of or ganizing a state fair, so as to give an exhibition of the various prod ucts, including livestock and other resources, mass meeting of the cit izens of this state, county and city is hereby called at the board of trade for June 10, 1902, at the hour of 8 o'clock p. m., for the purpose of taking steps to incorporate a state fair association and to put on foot all necessary movements to success fully accomplish said end; that all citizens having in view the develop ment of the industries and resources of the state are hereby cordially in vited to attend said meeting.

Storm Damage at Texarkana.

Texarkana was visited by de- structive storm May 25, the church. es being the special prey of the wind. The Christian church, Oak Street Baptist (colored) and c. M. E. (col- ored) were nearly ruined. The Fairview Methodist and Episcopal churches were also badly damaged. The Odd Fellows hall, a mammoth structure, was shifted over a foot. The damage to fruit and shade trees, fences and outbuildings was terrible and many fine residences were stripped of porches and shut ters. The business houses of s. M. Ragland and the Hoffman Hard ware Company were unroofed. Will Chances house and a smaller one west of town were totally destroyed. Dozens of dwellings under course of construction were leveled

NEWS OF ARKANSAS.
Worlds Fair Commission

The Arkansas worlds fair co1n-' mission met at Little Rock May 27, with all members present-Messrs. Geo. R. Belding of Hot Springs, James c. Rembert of Helena and George T. Lake of Fayetteville. Attorney General Murphy sustained the board in its contention that the old board had no authority to make a contract for a building at St. Louis to cost $1OO,O00, when only S3O.OOO is available. Another question decided by the attorney general is that the old board eX- ceeded its authority in allowing the members mileage and hotel ex- penses in attending meetings of the board, the law being specific in the designation of the uses to which money may be put. The attorney general says that the legislature may not have intended such a con- struction, but that the act Is very clear upon that point. Several hum dred dollars have been paid out on that account. President Beldlng says that a literal construction of the law may force the closing of the office until further legislation can be secured, which would be se- rious loss, but they must move in strict accordance with the law. A resolution was adopted revoklng the contract made by the former board with Architect Hart for a $10O,- GOO building at St. Louis. Another resolution was adopted continuing the officers until July 1, when deti- nite action will be taken. A third resolution adopted requests the former members of the board to re- fund moneys they collected as travelling expenses.
