THE COUNTRY EDITOR.

Verify the life OF a country
editor is a path of thorns.
His bread is promises and his
meat disappointment.
His creditors chase him by day
and the devil grinneth at him IN
his dreams at night.
One subscription in wood, and
behold it is rotton and soggy and
of short measure.
He whoopeth up the country
politician, who gets elected and
knoweth him no more.
He puffeth the church fair
gratis and then attendeth and
payeth his quarter and receiveth
two oysters.
He boometh his town and all
things therein and yet receiveth
no support, and is a prophet
without honor in his own coun-
,t'y.
He writeth columns about the
progressive merchant, and the
progressive merchant sendeth to
the city to have his stationery
printed.
Two young people marry and
he glveth them a great puff; they
go to housekeeping and taketh
not his paper.
Yes, he is bound down with
woe and his days are full of grief
and trouble and vexation of spir-
it.
But sorrow endureth only a
night and joy cometh in the
morning.
He ploddeth along and endur-
ETY. in patience and it is written
that he will receive his reward at
the judgment.
And we believe it.-Exchange

The Combine.
A Citizen of Calamine
Talks About It.

I wish to say a few words in
regard to the Dayis-Clarke COM
bine against James K. Jones.
The tried and true friend Of the
people of the grand old state Of
Arkansas who has stood in the
Senatorial harness at our nation
al capitol and fought the battles
of the democratic party for over
thirty years and by honesty and
hard labor won for himself the
Iaurels of fame and great honors,
and the man who has hon0ged
the people who placed him in the
senate-tO watch and guard their
interests is Senator James K.
Jones. He is the acknowledged
leader of the democratic party Of
the nation, having been twice
chosen as chairman of the Ma
Jional Democratic Committee, in
which position ne acquitted HIM
self with honor to himself and
country. Now feIIow-d democrats
of old Sharp county, let's come
to the front and show by our
presence and votes that we ap-
preciate the efforts Of our old
honored servant, who has Ia
bored SO long and persistently in
our behalf. Let US not submit to
| the Davis-Clarke combine. Let
us free our state from bossism
and dictatorship. Let every
democrat, young and old 60 to
the polls and roll up the biggest
majority for Jones that was ever
recorded for a man in the history
of tie county. Three cheers for
James K. Jones and Democracy.

YOU CAN'T DO THEsE1HINGs

YOU CAN'T DO THESE THINGS
A man cannot rise from a
chair without bending forward,
or putting his feet under the
chair or outside OF it.
Many a man will back himself
to give another a start of fifty
yards in race Of 100, provided
the man having the start hops all
the way. But no runner, how
ever swift, can give that amount
of start to an ordinary man. For
the first five yards they go at
practically the same pace
Therefore, the runner, to go
ninety-five yards while the chop
per" goes forty-five, would have
to run more than TWICE as fast,
and it would be a weak man who
could not hop forty-five yards al
a pace equal to twenty seconds
for 100 yards; and that would
mean that the runner, in order 10
win, would have to beat all pre-
vious records.
If a man boasts that lis pen
knife is particularly sharp, ask
him to cut with one stroke Of the
blade one of those yellow ribbons,
mostly of silk, which are around
bundles of cigars. In 800 cases
out of 1 900 the knife is not sharp
enough to do this. 1t will cut
through all the ribbon but the
last strand, and that will pull out
long, and the more he tries to cut
it the longer it will pull out.
No one except a blind man can
stand without support of any
kind for five minutes at a stretch,
if he is thoroughly blindfolded,
without moving his feet. If he
does not move his feet he is
pretty sure to topple over in about
a minute. Memphis Scimitar.

induced to leave his office, under
an agreement that he was not to
be horsewhipped. When DEis-
coll appeared he was confronted
by Miss Miller and the town.
Holding the horsewhip in one
hand she extended him his letter
in the other, and demanded that
he read it publicly. He did SO,

TIE HOME AND FRUIT.

A farm without an orchard,
vineyard, berry patch and gar
den ample for the purpose for
which they are intended, is like
a wilderness surrounded, by q
desert. In other words it is not
a good place to live at. How
many farmers, who have these
things, or some Of them, have a
family supply after the fruit is
out Of season. There are facil-
tiles at hand these days which
leave no excuse in such cases for
not having those wholesome
luxuries every day in the year
and every year, whether 'fruit
hits" or not. The process Of
canning in glass is so simple
and cheap that only lack OF
home enterprise can prevent hav-
ing at all times on hand an ex-
ira years supply, thus providing
for any possible contingency

PREVENTED LYNCHlNG.

The sheriff of Nevada county,
through an exhibition Of the
proper nerve and a determination
to prevent mob violence, saved
the town of Prescott from a triple
lynching last night. The three
negro prisoners charged with the
killing of two white citizens in
that county last summer were re-
turned to Prescott yes lrday for
the purpose Of having them ap-
pear before the grandjury. A
mob formed on learning Of their
arrival and the sheriff and six
deputies prevented a lynching
with great difficulty and returned
the prisoners to Little Rock for
safe keeping. In nine cases out
of ten where a sheriff has the de-
termination not to permit any
violence he con succeed, and that
too, without bloCdshed. The ne
groes, if guilty, will no doubt be
hanged as they deserve, and the
good citizens of that community
will be saved the disgrace of a
triple lynching.-Arkansas

APOLOGlZED IN PUBLIC.

A sensational scene was en-
acted here today, when a young
woman, under threat of horse
whipping, compelled a dentist to
publicly read an offensive letter
he had written her, an to make
an apology to the large crowd
which surrounded him and final
ly to promise to leave town,
says the Pittsburg Dispatch.
The man in the case is DR.. c.. D..
Driscoll, a man of family. The
woman is Miss Eva Miller, for
merly a resident Of Paoli, but
now employed as clerk in a store
in the hamlet of SaltilIo, a few
miles north of Paoli.
Driscoll had written Miss Miller
a letter in which he confessed his
love for her and asked that she
meet him. The letter was of an
offensive nature. Miss Miller
came to Paoli today and swore
out a warrant for the arrest of
Driscoll on the charge Of horse
whipping his wife. She lay in
wait for the return oil Driscoll in

DISCUSSED.

Washington, Jan. Is. "A well
defined impression is prevalent
tonight to the effect that the Ist-
main canal commission, which

anna Canal company, will, in view
of the fast that the price has
been reduced to $40, 100000, re-
port in favor Of the Panama
route, 1t is now claimed that
the principal reason why the
Nicaragua was favored over the
other in the first report was be-
cause Of the figure at which the
French company held its untin-

asked was Sl00,OOO,OOo It is
further claimed that while the

STOLE CIRCUS MONEY.
NJ. L. CIarkss Ticket wagon Robbad
Of SIO,3

Last night after the perform
ance at Welsh, a thief or thieves
made it lively for the finances of
the M. L. Clark circus by MAX
ing an entrance into the ticket
wagon, which appears to be the
depository for the show, and
then some, as it is reported by
the show people that $40, 800 was
taken.
Be that as it may, which APP
pears to US as an unusual thing
for any circus to carry or be
able to carry at this time Of the
year that amount. Two mea that
were arrested as being impli-
Gated in this robbery, were
discharged for want of evidence.
