WAR AFFECTS DRUGGISTS
Scare Threatens Shortageof Japanese
Camph0r.

Effects Of the threatened war in the
Orient are beginning to be felt in this
country, the drug trade being the first
to notice them. Since the scare has
been on there has been a decided de-
crease in the amount of camphor gum
exported from Japan and wholesale
drug dealers regard the situation as
critical.
Much Of the camphor gum used
throughout the world comes from the

There are numerous wrong ways but
only one right way. It is as easy to
do it right as wrong when you see how
it is done. Wrong shaped hides are
classed as damaged hides, even if not
damaged by cuts, and when they are
dried on the fence or ground, exposed
to the sun and the weather for a con-
siderable time, they get hard and are
only fit for glue and are worth but
half value of good hides.

HOW NEGRO
 WON PARDON.
Threw Cats Into Air for Jeff Davis to Shoot at Back In
 Penitentiary Again.

Little Rock, Jan. 15. Warden IS. T. Abraham of the state peni- tentiary has returned from Nash vile, Tenn, with somewhat noted negro convict, Joe Vest brook. The negro is about 30 years old and has a record of crime that is out of the common. At first he was sentenced to hang i in Crawford county for murder, l but was granted a new trial, and sentenced to twenty-one years in the penitentiary. That was while Jeff Davis was attorney-general and one day while he was at the camp at Altheimer Davis told the negro to throw some cats into l the air for him to shoot as a tar get, and when he was elected governor he would pardon the negro. He did as bidden, and after Davis was elected governor Westbrook reminded him of his promise, and the governor grant ed the pardon.
 Then he went out and entered the house of a citizen with felon- ious intent, for which he was ar rested and sentenced to a term of four years for burglary and larceny. Again the governor pardoned him and took him to his home as a stable boy. He worked one day, got his meals, came down town, stole a bicycle, spent the night in jail and in a few days was again in the peni- tentiary serving term of year for grand larceny.
 This time he escaped, and going to Tennessee, continued in his ia vorite avocation of snatching the property of others, and was given a year in the penitentiary at Nashville, which he duly served.
 Now he is back to finish out his term for the theft of the bicycle, and then there are some offenses against the United States postal laws, of which he is guilty, which will probably send him to Atlanta for a season.

LEE COUNTY IS
 ALL RIGHT.
Strong Voice of a Representative of the Farmers Raised
 Against Davis.

Judge c. D. Wood has received the following encouraging report from a prominent citizen of Lee county:
 'Old Lee is just as sure to go for Wood as am to vote for him. l have just returned from the five bottom townships of Lee and everything is all o. K. over there. I enclose you clipping from the Courier that one of my old county friends wrote. This man is as good a man as you will find in the state. Put your time in somewhere else and don't worry about Lee, for she is all 0. K. 7"
 The clipping is as follows:
 PROTEST AGAINSY DAvIsIsM.
 Eleener Township.
 MT. Editor: I address this communication to all whom it may concern; every Democratic voter in the state of Arkansas who expects to vote in the com ing primary for a Democratic nominee for the governorship of the state. As an humble Demo- cratic voter of the farming ele- ment I feel like raising my voice in protest against the nomina- tion of Jeff Davis for reelection to that high and responsible po- sition, one which he has abused most outrageously since having 1t. For the sake of our mothers, wives and daughters, especially those living in the country, ire quently in an unprotected state, fathers, sons and brothers being off in the fields at work or off of the premises on business, deem it the sacred duty of every lover of true womanhood to use his in- fluence and cast his vote against the reelection of this pardoner of an incestuous father and a black rapist. Judging the future by the past, what protection would the purity of woman have at the hands of a self-confessed adult erer, as he is anyway?
 As a son of an ex-Confederate soldier 1 call upon allsuch to lend their influence and vote to defeat for the highest office in their gift such character as Davis has proven himself to be. Arise, brother Democrats of Lee coun- ty, and relegate this demagogue to the rear!

MRS. BLACK RELEASED.
Story of Shooting of Greer By Doctor B. E. Black, Former
 ly a Newport Dentist.

] B. E. Black, formerly a dentist Ef this city, who was given to thinking spells, during which tine he was hardly accountable fr his acts, shot and killed William Greer, an employe in the rahoad office at Muskogee, In k diaa Territory. News of the tragedy reached this city several days ago, but the details of the affair were not known until a copy of the Muskogee Phoenix was received.
 Mrs. Black, after the shooting, was immediately placed under arrest, but after an examination, in which not the slightest in- eliminating evidence was found against her, she was released.
 To the Phoenix reporter she told the story of the crime as follows: Upon her return from Corsicana, Texas, where she had been nursing her sick mother, she found that her husband had been on one of his drinking spells, at which times he was in- sanely jealous and had often threatened to kill her.
 He charged her with being in tirhate with William Greer and debmanded that she accompany him to Greer's office. She re- fused at first to go, whereupon ha threatened to kill her if she did not go; she then agreed upon colhdition that he promise not to doAany violence to Greer, stating he fvas guilty of no offense. pr. eR5Ack pledged his honor not to Ehave any trouble and about 8 oeclock they went together to the KAaty ticket office. When they wdnt in the doctor and MT. Greer spoke as usual to each other. pr. R5lack asked Greer to accompany z them to his office, but Greer at first refused, stating that he did not have time. He afterwards consented.
 When they arrived at the office the doctor opened the door and, pointing to a seat, closed it and said, Take that seat, MT. Greer" MT. Greer seated him. self and had scarcely done so when thu doctor drew the pistol from his bosom, saying, You have destroyed the peace of my self and wife, !" and fired at him. Greer sprang toward the doctor and she ran out in the hall, call ing for help, and saw nothing further that took place in the office.
 M She said that she did not think MT. Greer ever suspected he was in danger up to the moment of the shooting; that they had been boarding at the same place ever since they had been in this city; that MT. Greer was a nice young gentleman who was on friendly terms with all who knew him, and during all the time they have been here Mir. Greer had never by sign, look, word or token made any familiar advances to- ward her, and that he was inno- cent.
 Mrs. Blacks manner in detail- ing this awful tragedy impresses one very strongly of the truth of Der statements, and Mrs. Rob- ertson, the keeper of the board ing house at which the parties stayed, and her family are unani- nous in the statement that Mrs. Blacks character was above re- proach.
 The death of Greer, which fol- lowed, will make it hard for his lrderer, who may pay the death penalty, and if not, is in all probability good for a long peni- tentiary sentence.

SUBSCRIPTION EArEs
SAD COMMENTARY

It is a sad commentary upon the Alaska exhibit at the worlds fair that there was only one medal awarded this district for anything in connection with the gold mining industry, Alaska stands first among the political dtviS- ions Of the United States in the produe' tion of placer gold and 1t stands third in the output from all classes of gold min ing, vet the TreadwelI pyramid was the only exhibit representing the industry oI first importance in the district to get , medal. A stranger looking over the awards Co this district would not know but that there was only one gold mine in the entire district. The great placer fields of Nome, producing annually be- tween s4.OoO.OOO and s5,OOO,OOo, and those Of the Yukon valley producing half that much, and both regions capa- ble of producing Co times as much as they are at present, were entirely un- represented. The list of awards would indicate that the people in this district were buster carving ivory walru, tuskS and making baskets than they were at enrichiug the wealth of the nation with constantly increasing millions of gold.
