News reached this city last week that Mir Dave McVey, formerly 2 resident of this county, had killed a man, in d difficulty, near Mt Pleasant, Texas. The particulars of the trouble we were unable tc obtain. His brother, Mir. John McNey, has gone to Texas to see about the matter.
 J. NJ Tifin, brother of Mrs. l. D. Owens and E. $. Tifin, of this county, was shot and instantly killed by his brother-in-law, Claude C. Manees, on last Saturday morning at the Tit1in home near barring Cross--just across the river from Little Rock. Tie trouble is said to have grown out of the fact that Tiffin had been abusing his wife, who is Manees' sister.

 \ strong effort is being made by r2erchants and business men along the line to induce the Iron Noun tain railroad people to run their Little Rock and Pine Bluff accom-  modation train through to Warren, instead of stopping at Pine Bluff as it now does. This would give people down the valley road and on the Warren branch an opportu7 nity to make q trip to Pine Bluff, or Little Rock and return the same day.

Annuef Report.

(Continued from first page.) brook, the county seat, where the existing conditions assisted by nature render one practi-
 able at a minimum cost, and reliable data can be given of the estimate cost and the profitable results of limited outlay of capital and labor, and this fact IS demonstrated at Woodruff where the people of that setrle- rnent constructed a dam which has for years withstood the flood waters of the Little Colo ado river, and they are enabled to rrigate quite an extent of country, as also at Winslow, where the water is ditched 15 miJes from. Chevelon and Clear creeks to the bottoms in the vicinity ot the town, and the ga me of Snowflake, Tavlor and Show Low.
 STOCK RAISING
 This industry has suffered considerably in the past two years by the removal of cattle from the county, owned by the Aztec Land and Cattle Co.,, who had originally overstocked the ranges, and after successive dry ears were compelled to remove them, which will however work an eventual benefit to thecounty by having the ranges stocked by individual owners whose inter- ests are more closely identified with the country than that of large companies. The sheep industry holds about the same, and large quantities of wool were produced this year and disposed of at profitable figures.

When the Minnesota State Fair OF
1902 closed it's gates after the most

of success could ever again be
eouaIled. Unparalleled in attendance

livestock exhibited, farm machinery

hibited, race entries, amusement fea-

fair of 1902 eclipsed all other state

within the bounds of probability that

New Potato Pest.

Samuel Price, Ravenna CO., farm
er, has discovered a new and formida-
BILE potato pest, says the Cincinnati
Commercial Tribune While inspecting
a field Of growing tubers he noticed
large sections of dead and dying plants,
due to the presence Of a mosquito
headed, dark bodied, quarter inch bug,
which, armed with a needlelike pro-
boscis, bores into the growing stock,
from which it extracts the life juices,
with fatal results. The newcomer is
very lively, flies like carrier pigeon,
and all ordinary methods of warfare
are futile against it.

CUPID AND STRIKES.
Marriage Recommended as PanaceG
For Labor Troubles.

Marriage Recommended as Panncea
For Labor Troubles.
Cupid's right bower, Mayor Knots Of
Hammond, Ind, has again championed
the cause Of matrimony Bachelors,
says the mayor, are a detriment to
community, while married men are val
liable assets. In an appeal just issued
he asked the merchants and manufac-
turers Of the city to employ married
men only. Mayor Knots declares that
single men are the chief fomenters Of
labor troubles; that they are reckless,
and as a rule do town more harm
than good.
Mayor Knots year ago offered to
marry free all couples residing in Ham
mond and to give them moral and
other support in establishing their
homes.
In his letter Mayor Knots argued
that during the years of labor trouble
in Hammond it had been notorious that
the single men were the first to start
trouble and to talk strike. Married
men, he declared, are more patient and
long suffering and less likely to go out
on unjustifed strikes.
The mayor states that single men do
not make as good citizens. He declares
they are reckless, inclined to wasteful-
ness and spending; that they come into
a town when new enterprise is start
ed, and usually, after short and reck-
less career, depart for some other town,
having done the town no good and
leaving only unpaid bills and friends
around the saloons.
The mayor closes his letter with an
appeal to the mandfac cturers and mer-
chants to call a meeting and take steps
looking to the employment Of married
men only in their factories and stores.
This, he declares, will end the labor
troubles of the town and raise the
standard of citizenship, give stability
of purpose to the town itself and do a
lasting good Married men, he con-
cludes become permanent citizens,
working for the good of the CON-
munity. He argues that the manufac-
turers, having received great benefits
from the town of Hammond, should
reciprocate by employing the married
men and giving them preference at all
times.

UPRISING is GENERAL.
Turkey Has 100000 Troops in Dis
turbed District,

IurpeQ DlSCFIcfp
London, Aug, 21.-All the embassies
here unite in the statement that the
news from Macedonia is exaggerated,
1t is officially reported, however, that
Turkey has about 100000 troops in the
disturbed district and this number is
accepted as being an indication that
a large majority Of the population is
engaged in the insurrection.
While it is the general belief that
the United States will not intervene
in Turkey interest is displayed in
diplomatic circles as to whether the
authorities at washington will order
American warships to Turkish waters
The United States European squadron
will leave Vile Franche shortly to en-
gage in revolutionary drills, prepara-
tory to taking part in the manuevers
in the Caribbean sea and it is not be-
lieved in American official circles here
that if it is decided to have the United
States represented in Turkish waters
that more than gunboat will be sent
and it is pointed out that the Machias

NEW CAR WHEEL.
Invention of South Dakota Man Said
to Be Valuable.

4nVenI1On Oh SOuth DdAOta SA4U
to Be Valuable.
G.. W. Hawkins, a former resident of
Great Falls, Mont. but who is now at
work on the Sioux Falls IS. d. divi-
sion Of the Great Northern railroad,
with headquarters at Garretson, Min
nehaha county, has been awarded a
patent on an invention which, it is
said, promises to make him a million
aire, says the Chicago Record-Herald.
The product of his genius is termed a
ball bearing antifriction car wheel. Its
practicability is soon to be tested by
several eastern railroads as well as the
Great Northern. The car wheel does
not differ materially in appearance
from an ordinary wheel and is so con-
structed that it may be made inde-
pendent of the journal and run on the
ball Bearing attachment if occasion de-
mands.
In the event of a, hot journal, often
the cause Of disastrous wrecks, by the
application Of a wedge the journal may
be made to remain stationary, and the
wheel will ran on the ball bearings,
which are constructed Of highly hard
ened steel and are oiled automatically.
This arrangement also permits the out
side wheel to run faster in traversing
a curve than the inside wheel without
slipping, thus reducing the possibility
Of friction to the minimum and doing
away with the wear, which makes it
imOeratiVa that fhe steel on Sharn
curves must be replaced at frequent in
tervals to avoid derailments and result
ing disasters to rolling stock and possi-
BILE loss of life
1t is also claimed for the new wheel
that it will reduce the draft Of trains
fully 25 per cent and that it can be
manufactured and maintained at a
small added cost over the price of the
wheels at present in use.

SITUATION MORE CRITICAL.
German View of Developments in the
Balkans,


Berlin, Aug. 21,-The rising in Mace,
donia is regarded here as bringing on
a darker stage. The insurrection Is
taking on proportions unexpected by
the German diplomatic agents. Bull
garian feeling, excited by the murders
and tortures across the border, is less
restrainable by the Bulgarian govern
ment and the movements of the Rus
sian and British fleets add to the nerv-
BUSINESS on the boerse among traders
and bankers owning Turkish railroad
shares or having commercial interests
in Turkey.
The German foreign Office appears
to be as much puzzled by Russia's pur
pose in moving squadron of her
Black sea fleet as nonpolitical lay
man would be. The foreign office Of
ficials have made no inquiry of Russia
on this point, as such a question
might be construed as suspecting Rus
sia's designs, and Russia, the Associ-
ated Press is informed, has sent no
explanation or assurance on the sub
ject, none being considered necessary.
