COURT ATTENDANTS
 SAVED TOWN

 The Rison Bazoo office was a total loss, and almost entirely the general store of Al Read and two general stores owned by J. Harrison. Had it not been for the willing and heroic efforts of the citizens and people in attend ance on circuit court all the busi- ness part of the town would have been destroyed.

As A. P. Bryson and family of Ingleside were returning home Sunday from a visit to Newport their team became frightened and ran away, turning the wagon over. MT. Bryson sustained con- siderable injuries, but the re- mainder of the family, Mrs. Bry- son and four children, escaped almost unharmed, as the weight of the wagon fell on MT. Bryson. A young man appeared upon the scene and helped Mrs. Bryson to get him from under the wagon. He was taken immediately to Dr. A. Kellett's office, where he re- mained until Sunday evening. He is improving rapidly under Dr. Kellett's care and the doctor thinks he will be able to go home in a few days.

When the petals of the great laurel magnolia are touched, however lightly, the result is a brown spot, which develops in a few hours. The fact is taken ad- vantage of by the South Ameri- can lover, who pulls . magnolia flower, and on one of it's pure white petals writes a motto or message with sharp pointed pen cil. Then he sends the flower, the young lady puts it in vase of wa ter, and in three or four hours the message written on the leaf be- comes perfectly visible, and re. mains so.

WHO GETS MOCHA coFl
6oGt of It Taken by sheiks and ernors of Arabia-Little n
 Ever Exported.

q don't believe there is a pound of genuine Mocha coffee on this continent" Mir. 0. T. Hilli- gias, a coffee merchant, informs me, says a writer in the St. Louis Globe Democrat, Cor that POO peo- pie in this country have ever tast- ed it, unless they have at some time visited Arabia and drunk it at the table of some sheik or gov. ernor.
 "The true Mocha is the finest conee grown; it has a delicious ha- vor that makes it as superior to the very best of other brands as SILK is superior to cotton, but the crop is extremely limited, and hardly ever more than satisfies purely local demands. Some arabian coffee may find it's way to thls country;it may even be called Mocha, but it is not the real arti- cle, am sure, and none of us has ever had it here, though we get the pest Of other brands that are grown in Ceylon and Java, and .nat means some mighty fine cof. lee' 1t is not Mocha, however, for the whole of the true Mocha crop each year wouldn't supply the cof
 lee demands of one ward in St. Louis alone for a period of six months The best and plumpest berries of the Mocha growth. those with the most exouisite naVor' are eagerly taken by tne governors and sheiks in the vicinity, and they have to get their orders in in advance, so that r ay may be sure of their annual sun. ply. The secondgrads berries 90 to the wealthier citizens, not of the governing class, and the third. or poorest, grade of berries. which are not much superior to the best Java coffee, are sold to the people and the demand invariably ex. ceeds the supply.
 "Sometimes a few pounds oY this cheapest grade osMocha finds its way to Constantinople, but it IS very, very seldom, and don't | believe an ounce of it has ever got any further west than that. lore. sume that if, by some hook or crook. pound of the real plump berried Mocha were landed in this country it would sell for a price that even a Rockefeller might hes. itate to pay. We get the best cof. fee grown, apart from the Mocha. but the local conditions which ore. vail where that coffee is raised prevent us from obtaining any, and l hardly think the real thing will ever be found in ourmarkets"

BREWERS DEATH
 V AT THE GALLONS.
Nathan Brewer Follows Mart Vowell to Scaffold at Para gould Meets Death
 Calmly.

Paragould, July 9.-Nathan Brewer was hung here this even- ing at $50 o'clock3and the body was cut down by Drs. Dickson and Hokpins in sixteen minutes. His neck was broken and he died without a show of weakness. Prayer was offered by the Rev. A. c. Griffin, the we'll known Methodist minister, who deliver ed a short address. Three songs were sung.
 Rev. Griffin continued singing until after the drop and then wept bitterly.
 Brewer spoke as follows:
 Well, you all are standing here while am here paying Vhe penalty, but have a home up wonder and have nothing to fear. 1 have told the truth to you all and want you to all un- derstand.. l gave my statement to the press. Good bye to you all"
 Order prevailed throughout the day. At least 5000 people were around the jail most of the day.
 Sheriff Grayson and a dozen deputies were kept busy most of the day, and hundreds of callers went in to see the doomed man in his cell. Brewer is a young man of 30, and has been in poor health for some time.
 T ate a hearty breakfast this morning, and am now eating my dinner, and enjoy it, too," said he, for this is my last meal." /"
 The statement was made at noon, as he sat in his cell with several other prisoners, all eat ilng together. The same rope nd scaffold was used today as Were used one month ago, when Mart Vowell was hanged. There was only one hours difference in the time of the execution. None of Brewers relatives attended the execution, and none of Bud" Dorch's family was here, but all will attend the funeral
 Pmorrow, near Marmaduke.
