DR. W. F. BESSELLIEU,
1 Pioneer in Arkansas Journalism,
 Dead.

Dead.
 Dr. W. r. Bessellieu, of this city. died, of paralysis, on last Thursday evening. Dr. Bessel- lieu had been in poor health for several months, but was able to be up until a short time before the fatal stroke. which terminated his earthly existence.
 The deceased was one of our oldest and most prominent clti- zens, having been identified with our people for half century, as physician, teacher and writer.
 He came to Arkansas from Geor- gia, in the fifties, where he prac- tieed medicine for time. He came to that State from South Carolina, where he was born, rear ed and educated. Dr. Bessellieu, after coming to Arkansas, engag- ed in the practice of his profession, medicine and just before the civil war was editor of the Monticello Sage, a newspaper publication, in this city of ante-bellum days. He was strong, forceful writer and soon achieved prominence in the journalistic field.
 When the civil war broke out, Dr. Bessellieu went out as a sur geon and served in the trans-Mis- sissippi Department. After the war, he came home and re-engaged in his practice, and soon started the Monticello Guardian, the first paper published here after the war. He afterwards sold his newspaper plant, and for several years engaged in school teaching. He was a finished scholar, and many of our young men are indebt- ed to him for a we'll grounded schooling.
 Seven or eight years ago pr Bessellieu, together with MT. ]. P. Burks, launched the Drew County Advance, which is still be- ing published in this city, and he was, also, interested in the publi cation of the Arkansas City Jour nal, with his son, Mir. Wilson Bes- sellieu, up to last year.
 He was married to Miss Annie Hemingway, of this city, in IS- 5S, who still survives him. He leaves four sons and two daugh- ters, all grown. and several grand children; all of whom have our deepest sympathy.
 Dr. Bessellieu was 1T years of age and was d member of the Baptist Church, of this city. His remains were inferred at Oakland Ceme- tery at 5 80 o'clock on last Friday evening

Millionaire Poor Stomach.

The worn out stomach of the over-fed millionaire is often parad ed in the public prints asa hor- rible example of the evils attend ant on the possession of groat wealth. But nillionaires are not the only ones who are afflicted with bad stomaches The propor- tion is far greater among the toil- CTS. Dyspepsia and indigestion are rampant among these people. and they suffer far worse tortures than the millionaire unless they avail themselves of standard medicine like Greens August Flower, which has been a favorite household remedy for all stomach troubles for over thirty.flve years. August Flower ronses the torpid liver, thus creating appetite and insuring perfect digestion. It tones and vitalizes the entire sys- tenn and makes life worth living. no matter what your station.

 Astronomers say the sun is about to throw off another world, and 1t is thought when the event takes place all life on the earth will be extinguished. It is known to as tronomers that such an event oc- cured on this sphere 20, 1000, ,ooo years ago. The fact that the sun is about to throw eff this new world is causing astronomers to change their views as to the nature of the sun and the future of the earth. It was origonally thought it would become cold and all ex- istence be finally frozen out. How ever, our readers need not be un- easy, as it is said that it will be several thousand years before the new world is thrown off.-Ex.

fae contest for the Democratic presidential nomination has mar
 TO .vc4 down to judge Parker and Mr. Hearst, and the boom for the former seems to be sweeping the eeontgy. Grover Cleveland gave t bis indorsement, thereby mak- ing Parker the candidate of the faction which has stood true to him. Judge Gray who was one of the "availables, . has announced his determination to support the Gew York jurist. Josiah Quincy, cx-mayor of Boston and one of the managers of the Olney boom, has visited Judge Parker and informed him that Massachusetts, after com pIimenting her favorite son, will cast her vote for him. Senator German recently withdrew from the race and 1t is understood that he will manage the Parker cam
 paign. Thus t appears that every so called candidate" for the nom nation, with the exception of MT. Hearst, has thrown his strength to Judge Parker, aud they represent every faction of the party. It is true that Mr. Bryan is opposed to Parker, but men like German, Car mack, Bailey and others, who were closely identified with Mir. Bryan in 1890 and 1900 are against their fallen ehieftain. and their voice will no doubt prevail over his. In some quarters it is urged against Parker that Hill is for him, and every time q county instructs for him they say that Hill did it.. This is absurd. Hill did not fath- CT the Parker boom. and was not active in its support until Carmack and others had made 1t a vigorous reality. It is nothing to the dis
 credit of Judge Parker that Hill and Gray, Pettus and Tilman, Daniel and Bailey and d host of others sanction his nomination. These men have evidently measured him. and have considered the sit uation in all it's phases. Their in tlorsement of his candidacy eviden- ccs the determination of all factions to unite on q man who can defeat Roosevelt and whom every Demo crat can support. The Parker boom originated in the United States renate among true-bue dem ocrats, and there is no stain on it because of any mans alignment with it-GonmerciaI Appeal.
