NO HOPE FOR FISHBACK.

Fort Smith, Feb. 2.-The condition of ex-Gov. Fishback, who is suffering from progressive paralysis, this after noon reached an alarming stage, and the attending physician extends no hope of recovery. The paralysis now extends along the entire length of the governors right side, and his mind is clouded. The sufferers speech is seemingly most difficult and is gutter al of tone.
 Mrs. Wheelis of Texas, Miss Magic Fishback, who is visiting in the North, daughters of Gov Fishback, have been sent for. The attending physician states that the paralysis has been pro- gressing for days and it's force has increased almost imperceptibly.

COMPETITIVE TELEPHONE
 COMPANY INCORPORATES
Bald Knob Telephone Company Pro- poses to Give Long Distance Ser vice in This Section-New-
 port a Connection.

One of the largest of recently incor- porated telephone companies had it's legal birth in the office of the secreta- ry of state. The Bald Knob Telephone Company was incorporated with a working capital stock of S5,OOO, which may be increased. All the stock has been taken. Nearly twenty towns in Jackson, White, Cleburne, Prairie and Independence counties are to be con- nected by long distance telephone.
 The objective points of the new line are Heber, Cleburne county, Searcy and Oes Arc, on the south, Newport, Jackson county, and Pleasant Plains, Independence county on the north. The circuit will be several hundred miles.
 Among the points touched are: Bald Knob, New Augusta, Judsonia, Searcy, Russell, Bradford, Newport, Pleasant Plains, Denmark, West Point, Des Arc, Heber ard other in- tervening points.
 The headquarters will be in Bald Knob, White county, at the junction of the Memphis branch of the Iron Mountain with the main line from St. Louis to Little Rock.
 The officers and corporators are B. R. Wynn, president; George Dickey, vice president; L. G. Wynn, secretary and treasurer. It is under stood that construction work will be- gin immediately.

HEARING POSTPONED.

Monday afternoon, the prohibi- ton attorneys concluded the examina- tion of their witnesses, and number of parties were called to the stand by the other side.
 Owing to the fact that two of the license attorneys are counsel in the Rufus Johnson murder trial, that side asked postponement of the further hearing of the case and court ad- journed over until Monday of next week, when it is to be hoped the question will be finally settled.

JUDGE MOOSE TO PRESIDE.

Thursday would probably have witnessed the completion of the jury for the trial of Rufus Johnson, except for the unfortunate illness of Judge E. D. Fulkerson, who after several days indisposition, is confined to his bed with fever.
 Upon the courts advice that a special judge be called to sit in this important case, the attorneys for the state and defendant agreed upon Judge w. L. Moose of Morrilton. He was located by telephone at Little Rock and accepted the summons, stating that he would arrive in New port on the first train from the south Thursday night when a meeting of the bar will be held at the court house.
 Judge Moose is regarded as an able exponent of the law, whose rulings are ever fair and impartial yet firmly made.
 It is probable that the jury will be completed Friday, though only three have so far been accepted, and the hearing of the case begun Saturday.
 This term of court when ended, will have been the longest in the circuit for the past two years and the Johnson murder trial will cost Jack son County several thousand dollars.

President Roosevelt addressed the Min

Saturday afternoon. Both houses assem-
bled in joint convention at $40 o'clock,
Speaker Babcock presiding, and the judges
of the supreme court occupying seats just

glowing terms as the chief executive,
whose courageous stand had said to the
old world nations who threatened ,ag-
gression in this hemisphere that the Mon
roe doctrine must be obeyed.
The president then bowed his acknowl-
edgements to the renewed applause and
thanked the legislators for their greet
ing, also for the opportunity given to
greet them
The address was a strong appeal for
good citizenship, based on proper educa,-
tion in the schools and at home, teaching
self reliance and the practice of the more
homely virtues. In substance the presi-
dent said: q

HyomeI the Only Cure for Catarrh Which,
Returns Your Money If Not Satisfactory.
It is seldom that a druggist has enough
faith in the medicine he sells even when
prepared by himself, to be willing to re-
fund the money II it does not cure; but
Hyomei has cured SO many cases of ca
tarrh that leading druggists everywhere
offer to refund the money to all who use
it and report that they are not satisfied.
Hyomei is the simplest and most con-
venient remedy for catarrh ever offered
to the public Breathed through an In,
ha1er SO small that it can be carried in the

and soothing and healing the irritated

Some Of the most prominent men and
women OF the country have gladly given
testimonials to Hyomei. After seeking re-
lief in vain for years, this wonderful
remedy has cured them of f-catarrh, and it
is no wonder that they want others to
know of it.
Rev. DR.. Stryker. Of the Thirty fourth
Street church, of New York city, writes:
"Hyomei gives wonderful relief in catarrh
when other remedies have failed It has
been of great service to me. .
If you have catarrh, accept this liberal
proposition and use Hyomei.

The president started down the main
stairway, to find the lobby packed with
men, who called Justify for a speech.
Once more the president had to extend his
greeting and thank Minneapolitans for his
cordial reception, and he was then hur-

Streets Packed With People. -
The line Of march of the parade was
packed with people, who shouted Justify
as the president passed, and he stood in
his carriage all the way, lifting his hat
and bowling to the right and left.
Talked to Students
When the carriages reached Bridge
Square the parade formation was broken
up and the president was whislzed rapidly
to the university grounds. The
chapel was packed with students, waiting
to hear him according to the arrangement
made with President Northrop, and wher
