His Last Hope Realized.
From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.

In the first opening of Okla homa to settlers in 1889, the editor of this paper was among the many seekers after fortune who made the big race one fine day in April. During his travelling about and afterwards his camp ing upon his claim, he encoun- tered much bad water, which, together with the severe heat, gave him a very severe diarrhoea which it seemed almost impossi- ble to check, and along in June the case became so bad he ex- pected to die. One day one of his neighbors brought him one small bottle of Chamberlain's s Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as d last hope A big dose was given him while he was rolling about on the ground in great agony, and in a few minutes the dose was repeated. The good effect of the medicine was soon noticed and within an hour the patient was taking bis first sound sleep for a fortnight. That one little bottle worked complete cure, and he cannot help but feel grateful. The sea- son for bowel disorders being at hand suggests this item. For sale by Green Forest Drug Go.

ing in excess of S200,000. One will be over the White river at Cotter. The other will span the the north fork of the White river at Devero, about thirty miles south of Cotter. Work is in pro- gress on both at this time. The Devero bridge is nearing comple- tion. A temporary trestle now spans the north fork of White river, and is used by the con- structions that are running as far as Buffalo City.
 Regular train service is now maintained from Newport to Mt. Olive, about fifty miles north of Batesville. MT. Hartigan stated that the regular service would be extended to Buffalo City by June 15. At Newport the trains con- meet with the St. Louis Little Rock lines of the Iron Mountain, which in turn connects with the Memphis line at Bald Knob. It is the purpose of the Gould sys- tenn to build a cut off between Newport and Wynne, reducing the distance into Memphis thirty miles. The route for that cut off is through an undeveloped sec- tiOn.

Advantages of the Cow-Pea Crop

A writer in the Farm and Ranch presents the following arguments:
 "CD It gathers free nitrogen from the air. CD It shades the soils in summer, keeping them in a condition most suitable to the most rapid 'nitrification' and leaves them friable and loose in the best condition for the future crop. (3) It has large root development and pumps up from great depths and large areas the water, and with it the mineral matter needed by the plant. (4) It's adaptability to all kinds of soils, stiffest clays to porous sands, fertile alluvial bottoms to barren uplands. (5) It stands the heat and sunshine of southern summers. (6) It's rapid growth enables the farmer in the south to grow two crops year on the same soil. CD If sown thickly, will by it's rapid growth and shade, effectually smother all weeds and thus serve as cleaning crop. (8) It is the best preparatory crop known to the southern farm- CT, every kind of crop grows after it. (9) On the alIuviaI lands of the Mississippi bottoms it serves to pump off excessive water, evaporating it through it's great foliage, thus keeping the soil in acondition of most rapid nitrification during the entire growing season. (1O It fur nishes d most excellent food in large quantities for both man and animals.
 With all these advantages it is no wonder it is called the "clover of the south" and were it used regularly throughout the south as one of the crops in a regular but short system of rotation, the soils of this section would soon rival in fertility their primitive conditions.
 In the south cow-pea is planted in late spring or early sum mer, and the crop of vines or peas are harvested or burned for fertiliz- ing purposes in early fall. The growth and development of this plant is both rapid and enormous, particularly when planted on good land. It perhaps assimi- lates more plant food in a short time than any other leguminous plant.

western points for the past three or four summers have been cut out this season, owing to some failure of agreement between the Frisco and St. L. & N. A. rail- roads. The first mentioned cause, of course, cannot be remedied, :, but those who have a right to know say that the excursion matter will be adjusted soon.
 The city has been filling up quite rapidly the past week or more and there is yet hope of a profitable summers business.
 At the Belding we come in con- tact with Maj. Elliott of Aurora, Mo-, who justly lays claim to being one of the pioneer fruit growers of the southwest. Mai Eliott's name is familiar to many people of this section who have been interesting themselves in fruit production during the recent months. At the request of George West, our late railroad manager, Maj. Elliott has fur nished number of articles to the papers, published along the St.. L. 6 N. A. road, which have certainly been of great value to our fruit interests.
 Maj. Elliott is entitled to be heard on matters pertaining to fruit, for he has grown rich in the business. His campaign for or chard planting was launched in Missouri in advance of the build ing of the Frisco road, and he has not yet found quitting place.
 Having the faculty of knowing a good thing when he sees, it., especially in the line of fruit growing, Maj. Elliott is simply struck on this section. He pro- nounces the land surrounding Green Forest as equal to the best for all fruits of this latitude and he knows what he is talking about for he attended the state horti- cultural meeting here last Febru- ary. He declares that our fruit lands are 80 diversified, owing to the different elevations and slopes of the lands and character of the soil, that there are no chances for failure, where the right fruit is planted in the right place. He says the tops of the mountains are simply .paradises for peach orchards. It matters but little how rough they are; blast out holes and set the trees among the rocks; they will flourish and bring almost sure crop. Moun- tain sides may also be utilized for grapes which are certain of abundant yield and profitable harvest, if only properly handled. He says our apple lands are equal in every respect to those of Ben ton and Washington, and that all sorts of berries and small fruits may be produced here with as great success as at any other place within his knowledge.

ENGLANp's NEW CABINET.
Government Supporters Don't Think
II Will Last,

The three weeks cabinet crisis In
Great Britain has ended in manner
more remarkable and dramatic than
that of its inception. The new cabi-
net is composed as follows:
Mr.. Broderick, formerly secretary OF
war, succeeds Lord George Hamilton
as secretary for India.
Austen Chamberlain. postmaster
general. succeeds MIR. Ritchie as chan
celor Of the exchequer.
Alfred Lyttleton. recorder OF Oxford.
succeeds Joseph Chamberlain as Sec
retary Of the colonies.
H. Arnold Forster, secretary to the
admiralty, succeeds Mr. Broderick as
secretary Of war.
Graham Murray, lord advocate Of
Scotland, succeeds Lord Balfour Of
Burleigh as secretary for Scotland.
Lord Stanley, financial secretary of
the war department. succeeds Austen
Chamberlain as postmaster general.
Mr.. Bafour's new ministry affords
measure Of the enormous difficulty
he has had to contend with In the
task of reconstruction, and its COM
position seems to indicate that the
premier himself can have little belief
Of its durability. The most sanguine
supporters Of the government express
the smallest hope Of such an admins
tration living many months. and the
prevalent idea is that there will be
general election before parliament
reassembles.
The withdrawal of the duke of
Devonshire is heavy blow. Had he
remained. the government might pos
sibly have survived another parlia-
mentary session by avoiding legisla-
tion dealing with the fiscal problem,
but with him goes the support Of the
strong party Of liberal unionists in
the country.

MANIAC FOUGHT The GUARDS
SAID HE WANTED TO SEE
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT.
When Denied the Privilege He Became
VioIent-Was Armed With a Re-
volver and Long Pair Shears-Was
His Second caii-Was Suspected
Denied He Wanted to Kill President.

Washington, Oct. "a man who
later gave the name of Peter Elliott,
his residence as Milwaukee and his
occupation that of a machinist, at
tempted to gain an entrance to the
White House Monday morning.
Being told he could not see the
president, he became violent and
fought desperately. He was armed
with revolver and knife and used
the latter on the doorkeeper, inflict-
ing a severe wound on the elbow.
The doorkeeper finally overpowered
him after innicting a bad scalp
wound. Elliott was removed to the
emergency hospital and later to the
police station.
An hour earlier he had demanded
to see the president. When asked
his business. he claimed he had been
sent for. and then said the presiden:
wanted to see him for fun. AS he
seemed harmless, he was not detained
at that time. Yesterday he attracted
attention by trying to reach the presi.
dent in church, but he was turned
away by an usher.
1t is learned that Elliott wrote a
long and incoherent letter to Roose-
welt last week. He enclosed his photo
graph and said he would call this
week to see the president privately.
Secretary Loeb opened the letter
and considered it sufficiently danger
GUS to show all the doorkeepers and
special officers the photograph.
When Elliott called the second time
at the White House this morning
Doorkeeper Cisele recognized him and
invited his inside to take. seat.
Elliott sat moment and then started
down the lobby, fourishing a knife.
Cisele at once sprang after him.
He would have been worsted but for
Chief Usher Stone, an old but muscu.
lar man. There was hard fight.
After being apparently subdued,
Elliott was placed in police van,
when he again became violent and
attacked two men, In the fight that
followed the glass sides Of the van
were broken. Csseie thinks his own
wound came Of broken glass.
The president, at the time of the
encounter, was in his Office in the
west wing Of the White House. He
knew nothing Of the affair until 1t
was all over.
The search OF Elliott revealed a
loaded revolver and pair long-bladed
shears. He denies he intended to kill
the president. His language is that
of foreigner. He is perfect type
Of an anarchist and talks in a ram
bling manner. The doctors believe he
is insane. He says he came from
Baltimore on Thursday and met the
president at church. He says the
president wants him to marry Alice
Roosevelt.
He claims the royal blood OF
Sweden flows in his veins. and that
| an attempt was made on his life in
Minneapolis, from which place he
was compelled to fee to AVOID death.
He insists he is the presidents per-
sonal friend, and only carried the
weapons for self protection.

viii Call an Extra Session.

A good deal Of pressure has been
brought to bear on the president to in.
duce him not to call congress into ex-
ira session In November. but to all
callers who have spoken to him IN
that vein he has said that this govern
ment is committed to the proposition
that the Cuban reciprocity treaty be
made effective at the earliest date.
and he regards 1t as a matter of good
faith that this country should keep its
word. He has declined, therefore. to
consider any proposition looking to the
abandonment of the idea of an extra
ordinary session.

ELEVEN PERSONS DROWNED
A STEAMER cAPslZED ON LAKE
MICHIGAN.
Seven Persons Rescued After Floating
Around All Night on Pieces Of
Wreckage-Boat Was Struck by a
Squail During the Nieht-Seven
Miles From Land.

Marinette. Wis, Oct. 5.-During a
squall on Lake Michigan the steamer
j. II. Hackley capsized and IL persons
were drowned. The Goodrich line
steamer Sheboygan rescued the other
seven persons on board the Hackley
after they had floated about on pieces
Of wreckage ,all night. The Hackley
was struck by the squall when seven
miles Off Green island. The upper
works were blown away before the
boat could reach haven. The boat
then turned over and went down in
deep water. The drowned
George Laclaire, Jr., Jacksonport,
Wis; Joseph V. Crus, captain of the
Hackley, Fish Creek; Edna Barringer;
Lawrence Barringer. Fish Creek;
Henry Rabitoy, Fish Greek; Carl Kel.
ky, Fish Creek; Miss Frances Vincent;
Miss Vncent's sister, Egg HarDor
Wis.,; Freeman Thorp, Fish Creek;
Nels Nelson. Sturgeon Bay; Frank
Fftzgibbons, Jacksonport.
The rescued: Frank Blakefield,
purser. Fish Creek: Orrin Rollin, en-
gineer. Fish Greek; Milton Hansen;
Blaine McQuesney. Fish Creek; two
men Of Ellison Bay, Wis.
1t was several hours after the Hack.
ley sank before the Sheboygan hove
within sight.
After the Hackley went to the bot
tom those who would and could seized
on floating wreckage while the women
and three or four of the men, failing
to find any object to which to cling,
sank in the sea, SO far as known.
The waves were rolling high, and
several Of those who at first saved
themselves from immediate death lost
strength and sank. 1t was more than
an hour after the Hackley sank before
the Sheboygan hove In hailing dis
tance. The shouts OF the noating men
attracted the attention OF the sailors
Of the Sheboygan and every assistance
was lent. The darkness made rescue
slow, but the officers OF the Sheboygan
feel sure that they took ABOARD every
person afoat. Some OF the persons
who were rescued say that 1t is pos
sible that one or more OF the II per-
sons missing may have escaped death.
This view is not given much credence
by the sailors of the Sheboygan. The
Sheboygan made into Fish Creek when
hope Of rescuing other persons seemed
impossible.
The rescued persons were 80 ex.
hausted from their struggles against
drowning that they were unable for
some time to tell anything about the
wreck.
The persons saved by the Sheboygan
say that with the washing away OF the
upper works all persons aboard the
Hackley ran on deck. Hasty prepare.
tions for plunge into the water were
begun. but before any plans could be
carried out the boat listed. turned over
and went down like a rock. Search is
still making for any persons who may
have escaped death and for the bodies
Of those who were drowned.

The Big Gun Jared a Few.

San Francisco.-The concussion
caused by the discharge Of the 12-inch
gun on Angel island. which was fired
recently by the artillerymen in prac-
tice, shattered windows in Sausalito,
shook houses, knocked down plaster
and caused much excitement among
the people. The Preside also was well
shaken. The boom of the heavy gun
made the general hospital feel unsafe
for few minutes. so violently was it
rocked by the shooting. All the Off
cers' dwellings were also shaken.
