Messrs. Franklin and Rhodes. but the crew of hands were principally negroes. Mr. Rhodes was a short distance from the mill at the time of the explosion, and escaped un- hurt. Four of the negroes were badly injured, two of them proba- ply fatally-one scalded and the other struck on the head with a piece of timber. The other two were scalded, but their wounds are not thought to be serious.
 Drs. Gannaway and Thomas were sent to the mill as soon as possible. after the explosion, and dressed the wounds of the men.
 The wounded men were from Dermott and Winchester. They were sent on the train Saturday morning to their respective homes.

W0RLD-FAM0US AGR0BATS.
Ringing Bros. Present an Entirely New Company of Gymnasts
 This Year.

The superb company of aero bats which Ringing Brothers have secured for their circus this year, illustrates, as never before, the magnificent possibilities, of the human form in the absolute perfection of physical develop ment. Not only are these per formers the greatest opponents of acrobatism that the world has ever produced, but they are handsome, superbly developed men and women, whose lives are a tribute to the value of modern atheletic training. In compa- ny embracing so many star ar lists 1t is difficult to individual ize, and yet there are many among these great performers whose exceptional skill entities them to distinctive mention. At the head of the list is the famous Nelson Family. This giant com pany of acrobats embraces ten men, women and children. Their act is original with themselves, and III its intricate novelty as we'll as the ease with which the most difficult and thrilling evo- lutions are performed. 1t has no peer in the wide world. The costuming of this great act is al- so matter for comment and unstinted praise. New features that will also attract attention when the show exhibits in Mon ticello. Sat. Nov. 18th are the performances of the Roberts Family, the exceptionally clever acrobatic feats of the Pettits and Dibolian Brothers and the beau tiful posing of the farfamed Ka- walski. Genero and Theol pre- sent and astonishing exhibition of graceful and difficult contor- tion, in company with the great Eduardo, who occupies the cor responding stage. Scores of other acrobats and gymnasts combine with the worlds great est riders, the worlds cleverest clowns and the worlds most skillful specialists to make this the most remarkable exhibition ever organized A gorgeous horse ballet, an immense menag- erie, which offers as special fea- lures the only giraffe known to be alive and 30 big and little ele- plants; trained animal de- partment, marvelously educated bears, seals, dogs, ponies and elephants; and a glorious reviv- al of the thrilling sports and spectacles ofold Rome round out a performance that has no counterpart on earth. This years street parade is all new and is brilliant beyond power of human pen to describe.

RESULTING THE DEAD.

The relic hunters who some times scufile for a scrap of cloth ing from the dead body of a ne- gro W ho has met with summary punishment at the hands of a mop deserve to be suppressed by some severe and effective means.
 The painted coffin of Jim Younger, the ou law, while awaiting the arrival of train which was to convey the body to his old home in Missouri was the special object of these despic able vandals.
 They not only cut the corners of the coffin and carried off long slivers from 1t but wrote on the sides of the casket. When 1t was taken up to be shipped away some one had written in almost an illegible scrawl, Good bye Jim Thus do we find persons in almost every city who are mean enough to insult the dead They deserve some kind of pun ishment that would be effective in restraining others.
 A goodly portion of the above from the Arkansas Democrat is timely and appropriate, but the words of "Good-bye Jim, which the Democrat seems mostly to censure are deserving of better fate. They carry with them a pathos and melody as sweet and hallowed as a summer dream. A relic hunter IS, most generally, a nuisance, and especially those with ghoul-like propensities, but the man who bids good bye" is not to be reckoned with that ilk, no. not by good deal.
