A Noteworthy Race.

The population of st. Kilda the most
westerly of the inhabited Scottish isles,
is a unique one in many respects. The
people are the most lonely in the Unit
ed Kingdom, there being very little
communication with the mainland and
sometimes not for months at stretch.
Socially the islanders are practically a
commune. If the head of a household
is injured or loses his life among the
rocks, his widow and family share in
the proceeds of their labor as if he
were there to take part in it. If family
illness prevents any one joining in the
days work, he is asked to stay at
home, and his interests will not be lost
sight Of. All questions, complaints,
etc., are determined by their mode, or
local parliament, whose judgment is
final. Early morning conferences usu-
ally determine the days tasks.
st. Kildians are most industrious
and active as we'll as religious peo-
pie, and on the island at any rate the
vexed problem Of church attendance
has been solved. Every man, woman
and child capable of leaving the house
hold goes regularly to church, and
only some serious disability will keep
any person at home.-Scottish Ameri-

influence of Children.

Childhood in it's weakness is often a
strength that resists the strain Of all
the passions, and that holds even when
deep hatred eXerts it's power to drive
asunder.
'If it were not for the child, would
not live with you another day." l
heard an angry husband say to his
wife, when righteous indignation drove
him nearly to distraction.
That was quite a number of years
ago, and now they have two more chill
dren to strengthen the bond between
them. This little episode of domestic
infelicity was recalled by some Stats
tics that recently emanated from Ber-
lin and which speak volumes.
These statistics have been carefully
gathered from the divorce courts, and
show that out of 1000 divorces $40
were granted where there were no chill
dren, PA where there was one child,
139 where there. were two children, 60
where there were three children, %
where there were four children, II
where there were five children and 10
where there were six children.-New

The Poor Dog.

A Partisan clothes dealer kicked a
dog out of his shop. The dog shot out
with some rapidity and knocked over
woman with a jug of milk. The
woman broke the jug and upset an
elderly gentleman, and the jug cut
both of them. At that moment a cy-
clist arrived and was thrown off his
machine by the PROSTATE figures, and
simultaneously cart came up and
smashed the bicycle. The magistrate
blandly advised the entire squad to
proceed against the dog. and they are
now looking for it.-LOndOn Globe.

Judge M. M. Stuckey went to Little Rock Friday afternoon on business for a client.
 The passage of an ordinance, re- quiring stock to be kept up, is being discussed and many of our people feel that Newport should get out of village ways, as many nice lawns, upon which time and money are constantly expended, are ruined by the depre- dations of the town COW, to whom most gates are slight obstacle. The innovation might work hardship upon many, but one can hardly ex- pect to enjoy the privileges of city and country life at the same time, for in the government of congested cen- ters of population it is necessary that many of the natural rights and privi- leges of the individual be curtailed.

MISSOURI FIX X-GOVERNOR
 SYMPATHIZES WITH DAVIS.

Little. Rock, Ark, March 19.-Just before the. adjournment of the com mittee in the investigation of the charges against Gov. Davis last night the governor read a letter from Lon W. Stevens, former governor of Mis- souri, in which MT. Stevens expressed his sympathy for Gov. Davis in the I@undignified and puerile" islanders against him. Mir. Stevens stated that he had always considered the con tingent fund of the governor as ap- propriated for such use as that exe- Icutive saw fit and proper.
 After reading the letter Gov. Davis said he had received communications lof like nature and, turning to Col. Murphy, said: "I would like to read you some more of these letters"
 Col. Murphy replied: eff they are all from such men, who are as desti- tute of character as the author of that letter probably is and as you (pointing at Gov. Davis), I don't care to hear them"
 John Willie also testified that the best part of the Altheimer farm had been offered him by Morris Altheimer for $30, ,OOO. This is the farm that MT. Altheimer offered the State for $87,- 800.
 The investigation will be closed this week.

FEDERAL OFFICERS
 FIND SECOND STILL
Poinsett County's Chief Industry Seems To Be Runninglk Wildcat Stills Federal Officers Kept
 Busy Within Her Confines.

City Marshal s. c. Stone and U. S. Marshal Copeland arrested Swim Brown and Lem Hope in Scott town ship of Poinsett county Monday under the charge of making wildcat whiskey says the Harrisburg Modern News. A copper still was also captured and brought in. Mir. Stone says the still was in as good place as could be found for the business. It was out in the bottom near the Bay on a small spot of high ground which was sur rounded by several feet of water. He says they had a shed with pailings around it, fixed up right snugly. The prisoners were carried to Helena where they were bound over in the sum of $500 each, and in default of bail Hope was committed to jail, but Brown was released upon his own re- cognizance. There is yet another wildcat still somewhere in that section of country, but it is quite likely they will be pretty sly about operating it for some time.

TRIBUTE TO THE SOUTH.
Senator Hoar Of Massachusetts Pays Liberal Eulogy To People Of South-''T They Are A Noble
 Race" Says Venerable
 Statesman.

In a recent address by Senator Hoar of Massachusetts, this New Englander paid beautiful tribute to the people of the South in the eulogy below:
 "Although my life politically and personally has been life of almost constant strife with the leaders of the Southern people, yet as grow older I have learned not only to respect and esteem but to love the great qualities which belong to my fellow citizens of the Southern States. They are a noble race. We may we'll take pattern from them in some of the great virtues which make up the strength as they make the glories of the free States. Their love of home, their chivalrous respect of women, their courage, their delicate sense of honor, their constancy which can abide by an opinion or purpose or an interest for their States through ad- versity and through prosperity, through the years and through the gen erations, are things by which the peo- pie of the more mercurial North may take lesson. And there is another thing -covetousness, corruption, the low temptation of money has not yet found any place in our Southern po- litics.
 "Now, my friends, we cannot afford to live, we don't wish to live, and we do not live in state of estrangment from people who possess these qual- ities. They are friends of ours; born of our borning, flesh of our flesh, blood of our blood, and whatever may be the temporary error of our South ern States, l, for one, if have right to speak for Massachusetts, say to
 her: 'Entreat me not to leave thee
 nor to return from the following after thee; for where thou goest will go, and where thou stayest I will stay
 Thy people shall be my people and thy
 God my God"

LOOKS LIKE ROCK ISLAND.
Corps Of Surveyors In Fort Smith Keep Missouri Pacific People Guessing - Arkansas Central
 Will Be Paralleled.

Fort Smith, Ark, March 19.-There is good deal of speculation here con corning the railway system employing a corps of civil engineers who have been camped in the city for number of days and who this morning began a survey from the Kansas City South ern road at Poteau bridge east, par alleling the Arkansas Central. The corps is under the direction of D. l.. Mcdonald, whose pass designates him as soliciting engineer of the Rock Is- land. He affirms that he does not know in whose employ he now is, though he admits having been in the employ of the Rock Island and that he has not of his own volition severed his connection with that system.
 The Missouri Pacific people have been taken by surprise and are pug zled as to the purpose in view. It IS intimated that the extension is to be that of the Fort Smith & Western, the officials of which admit that they are looking for an eastern outlet and to that end have purchased property on May avenue for the depot and have received important concessions from the city council.
 F. A. Molliter, formerly chief en- gineer of the Chocuaw, but now chief engineer of the projected road from Paris, Logan county, to Hot Springs, of which President Abbott of the American National Bank is at the h a d, has been holding con- ferences with Mcdonald. If the sur mise is correct one the extension will parallel the Arkansas Central to Paris and there connect with the Ab- bolt road to Ola, where it will strike the Rock Island and be in line with Little Rock and Memphis.

way as to look like gun metal shades of
gray. For those who prefer soft fan
nels there is a tempting array to select
from, many of them showing color in
their scheme. Stripes and plaids are
numerous. Many of the color combina-
tons in the plaids are startling at first
sight, but like most other things in the
line of dress women soon can become so
accustomed to them as not to find them
at all conspicuous. Some striped fan
nels show two or three shades of the
same color, each shade seeming to be the
shadow of the next darker one. The way
in which these shades are all managed
is very striking. An occasional line of
black is run in, too, to set off the other

Mrs. Wyman, no one is able to place an

Mrs. WyInan lived alone with domestic
and was 20 years of age at the time of
her death. 1t was generally believed she
had large sums of money and valuables
in her home, and about FIVE years ago
her house was entered by burglars. who
stole pearl necklace. In attempting to
defeat the robbers Mrs. Wyman was
struck in the face with brass knuckles
by one of the burglars and carried marks
of the encounter in the form of a deep
scar on her face with her to the grave.
On her death a search of the premises
vas made and a large sum of money,
certificates of deposit and other evidences
OF wealth were found hidden away in the
different premises. Just how much it
amounts to the searchers refuse to dis,

to attend to her business, but she kept
him in ignorance of the extent of her
property. She had large number of
houses and business properties in differ
