He Says They Will Practically Revo'
l~utionize Pacific Trade.

New London, Conn, April 15.-"They
will revolutionize the carrying trade
of the Pacific The words are James
]. Hillside was talking of the des-
my of the two great steamships build
ing for the Great Northern railroads

Eastern Shipbuilding Company. Well
might Mr.. Hill make the prediction
for these ships-the first of which,
named the Minnesota, will be launched
Thursday, April 16, at 1890 p. NJ
are the largest ships in every way in
the world with the single exception
of the recently completed Atlantic
liner the Cedric. and the latter craft
exceeds the Minnesota in displacement
by only $40 tons. Some idea of the
immense proportions of the Minnesota,
is possible by comparison with the
Cedric. The measurements are as fol-
lows: Minnesota. Cedric
Length over all feet. $50 200

Displacement. tons .... $4,000 1880
Horse power ..........l2,OOO l6,OOU
Speed, Knots ..........l4 10
But it is in carrying capacity that
the Minnesota will exceed any vessel
afoat, a capacity equal to that of half
a dozen steamers of common size on
the Pacific.
Forty.fve cargo winches will feed
it's nav through as many matches as
the Cedric contains. The Minnesota
can carry 400 head of cattle, 5000 tons
of coal and 5000 tons of water. Ar
entire locomotive can be shipped
ready to run out on some oriental rail
way; 1900 passengers can be accomo

director, that's a lot of turkeys to kill with one bullet"
 "Go ahead, professor" said I, that's nothing for Arkansas.
 No, sir" said the professor, and, as l was a sayin, I had counted IS goblers and 9 hens when l happened to look up and l seed where that ball had struck a sycamore tree, and by gosh, there was something I running out of the hole. 1 trapped my countin' and run to see what it was and durn my hide if wasn't honey. 1 stuck my finger in the hole and reached down to get q stick to put in the hole and got rabbit by the leg. 1 slung 1t down to kill it and it struck in q bunch of quails and killed S3 of 'em. l cut down the tree and the honey covered the ground so deep l had to climb a saplin' and the squirrels ran out of the hollow limbs of that tree fer three days and nights. l start ed home with all the turkeys l could tote, and drove of wild ducks started to fly over me. l shot into 'em and they fell so thick and fast they like to smothered me to death.
 Here the professor paused and looked at me and 1 could see the tears in his eyes as he said, And my poor old dorg is under them ducks yet.
 The director looked at me and then at the professor, and after a bit he said, Well, I guess we'll discontinue the school; 1 don t think there is any use to continue it any longer. "
 Now, Mir. Editor, that's how he lost his school and why he had to leave here, and 1 know he planes me for it. But l couldn't help 1t. We all clipped in and made up money enough to send the unfor- tunate boy back home to his folks where the people all know him. l hope the people there will take care of him. Your friend,

Judge Arnold Celebrates
 His oZnd Anniversary.

A large number of relatives and friends assembled at the home of Judge and Mrs. M. l.. Arnold on Thursday, the 18th, to celebrate Mir. Arnold's 62nd birthday.
 The guests were entertained with true Southern hospitality and that they thoroughly enjoyed the occasion goes without saying. Judging from the bountiful feast spread before those who gathered at that hospitable home there is no likelihood of its happy and con tented occupants ever going lover the hill to the poor house. "
 Mir. Arnold is yet spared in good health and prosperous circum- stances, to see his children and his children's children, and while he and his good wife have rejoiced together over the cradle and wept together over the grave, we are glad to know that they yet have most of their children with them, the fairest flowers of this glad festival.
 We hope there are many happy years in store for both Mir. Arnold and his estimable wife, although he is entering upon the youth of old age, and we have no desire to hide from him the fact that his sun is turning to the west. But Mir. Arnold can look back over a life well spent; q life of usefulness alike to himself, his country and his fellow man. We feel safe in saying that there is not q man in the county more honored, loved and respected by those who know him best than is Judge Arnold. Loved because of his uniform kind ness to friend and fellow man; honored because of his honorable and upright career as a true gentleman of distict character and bearing. and respected because of the high and lofty sentiments of patriotism that beats within this breast of a genuine Southern pa triot.
 May he and his good wife and many friends be spared to ceIe brate many more happy birthday, Is The Journals sincere wish.

Among the strong arguments presented by the Arkansas Demo- crat in favor of its pet measure, the newspaper bill, passed by the legislature, we note that 1t pays the measure high tribute as an educational measure and makes the strong point that the country press should cease it's denunciation of this outrage and join the good Democrat in q song of praise to those who passed the bill over the governors veto. The Democrat thinks the country papers will ultimately reap q rich harvest and have to buy q larger subscription book to accommodate the great in- crease of subscriptions brought about by this measure. There Is no doubt but that the sending out of 90 to 40 copies of the Little Rock dailies for couple of months once every two years into county containing 10000 people will have wonderful effect in educating the people to read, as the Demo crat claims, and we can't under stand why the Democrat didn't t have some of it's trusted lieuten- ants to amend the measure so as to make the country press pay the expense of sending out these pa pers, instead of making the state pay it. The country papers, ac- cording to the Democrat, will reap the benefits of the measure, and, of course, they ought to pay the freight. But the Democrat de- rives no benefit from the measure and it is only from a feeling of profound sympathy for the coun- try press that it consents from the depths of its great, honest heart for the state to pay this expense. Verify, the Democrat is a kind hearted and generous old sister.

The Journal has always been
 friendly toward Senator Hinkle and, while we indorse the position
 he has taken on many questions before the legislature, we must say that, in our judgment, he made mistake when he introduced and secured the passage of his bill -1aising-tse county clerks salary
 frMn S1, QUO to ~S2. 100 per year. We venture the assertion that there has never been man elected county clerk who was making more than $50 a month prior to his election. The clerk salary before this bill went into effect amounted to $150 a month, and he pays about $50 of that to his deputy, who gen erally does most of the work, thus leaving the clerk net salary of S100. We think this a sufficient salary, and, in fact, we have never heard of the clerk kicking for q raise. The clerk does not earn more than S100 month and it

Consumption is a human weed flourishing best in weak lungs. Like other weeds it's easily destroyed while young i; when old, sometimes inn possible.
 Strengthen the lungs as you would weak land and the weeds will disappear.
 The best lung fertilizer is Scott's Emulsion. Salt pork Is good too, but 1t is very hard to digest.
 The time to treat consump- ton is when you begin trying to hide 1t from yourself. Others see it, you won't.
 Don't wait until you can't deceive yourself any longer. Begin with the first thought to take Scott's Emulsion. If 1t isn't really consumption so much the better; you will soon forget 1t and be better for the treatment. If 1t IS consump- ton you can't expect to be cured at once, but if you will begin in time and will be rigidly regular in your treat ment you will win.
 Scott's Emulsion, fresh air, rest all you can, eat all you can, that's the treatment and that's the best treatment.

The Latin word for which pagan is derived originally meant fountain or spring; then the village which Sprang up around it, and finally the residents in the village. AS Chris tianity took strong root at first in the large centers of population and the worship of the pagan deities fingered longest in the country and among the country villages, it come to be under stood that pagan or villager, was, in virtue of his residence, a worshiper of the old gods, and thus the term &C., quired it's present significance.

Why the Lost Boy Came Home.


 Enon, Tex, March 21, 1903. Editor Newark Journal.
 Upshur county has lost q noted citizen; but. as the professor said, it is Arkansas gain. He left like many others of his kind, and for got to attend to some matters that honest men usually settle before leaving community. His land lord was also very mad when he learned that the professor was gone. Besides other matters that should have been settled, the pro- lessor dug a well for his landlord. He had the we'll about two-thirds done when he left, and the landlord happened around the next day to see how he was getting along with it. He told me the well was so crooked the bucket would fall out of it. l told him the professor was cross-eyed, and he said if he had known that he wouldn't have let him dug it.
 Say, Mir. Editor, did you learn how he lost his schooll 1 am satis- fled he has not told any one, so l will tell you how it was.
 had gone over one morning to take his family some few things they needed to eat, and while l was there man rode up to the gate. l learned afterwards that he was one of the school trustees. The man got down and came in and the professor hunted around and got him box to sit down on the professor and l were sitting on two stumps in front of the door in the sunshine. as he didn't have any wood to burn. We had been talk ing over old times and after the man had sat down I said to the professor, Well, old chum, how would you like to be back in old Arkansaw this morning to go huntingl"
 Is there much game back therel" asked the director.
 Well, yes, should say there is" replied the professor.

 Well, Mir.

From that time my happy, care!esU
life was ended. In vain they tried
TO impress me that j had only an
swered the demands of justice, for
that shadow was always across my
path, and my thoughts and dreams
were haunted by the sorrowful, plead
ing eyes of Henry Derbin.
Ten years later l was married and
lived in neighboring town to our
old home. Strange to say, my husband
was one of the lawyers for the state
in the case of Henry Derbin. At that
time he was just starting out in the
profession, and his eloquent speeches
i1 that trial was the starting point
on his road to success.
We often spoke CT the case, and
while, of course, as a lawyer, his con-
science did not trouble him, he vain
ly tried to impress on me that l had
done only my duty, and that my ideas
about it were all mistake.
AS if it were only yesterday l could,
in imagination, see his pale handsome
face and reproachful eyes as they car
ried him away to prison.
1 think the shock to my sensitive,
childish mind completely hushed all
whisperings of justice, and the fact
only remained that by my words had
doomed fellow mortal to lifelong
misery and shame. My heart ached
for him when we heard that once he
had attempted to escape by jumping
from a boat into the river, but owing
to his shackles was promptly captured
and returned to prison.
One evening, not long after this,
about dusk, my husband and | were
sitting on our front porch, when man
came walking quickly down the walk
and halted at the steps. l was horri-
fled to see that his hands were shackled
together. and on one foot he dragged
long chain he wore a convict's garb,
and in his pale, thin face we both rec
ognized the features of Henry Derbin.
He it was-but oh, how changed
from the handsome, dashing fellow we
had sent to prison years ago! The
beautiful brown hair was cut close to
his head and the once flashing eyes had
the :.unted look of a closely pursued
animal, and the hdeous convict clothes
hung like a sack from his emaciated
form. He glanced nervously from my
husband to my own startled face, but
was glad to see he did not recognize us.
Friends" he said, "as you see, am
an escaped convict. No doubt you
have heard of Henry Derbin, sent to
prison from this county years ago.
He now stands before you begging for
mercy. 1 have not long to live, but be-
fore l die L must see my mother, and
the woman who has been true to con-

but can do nothing in these shackles.
The officers are not far behind, but
they will never take Henry Derbin to
prison again." and he significantly

Individual Braxery.

Gen. Miles says that the most reck-
less display of individual bravery he
ever saw was during the civil war,
when a regiment was marching into
battle, led by its young colonel. Shells
began to fall and four or five of the
men would drop at time. They
were comparatively raw troops and as
the fire became more and more dead
ly they showed just symptom of hesi-
tation. Suddenly their youthful lead
er rode out in front, waving his sword
in the air and yelled: 'Move up, move
up. Do you want to live forever?"
Gen. Miles characterizes this as "a
specimen of utterly abandoned cour-
age."-Indianapolis News.
