Not in the Race for County Judge.

To those who were anxious for me
to have made the race for County
Judge | will say that fully intended
to make the race this time; and
would have made my public an
nouncement just after the committee
made the call for the primary had it
not been for the condition of my
father in his last sickness. | could
not get out then, and didn't know
when could, or whether at all be-
fore the primary. Before his death
there were already three candidates
in the field, so | thought at that
lase stage of the game it might not be
advisable for me to enter the race.
| take this method of telling the peo-
pie now that will not be candi-
date, and leave them to choose from
the men in the field. To those who
were desirious that | should make
the race shall ever feel grateful.
Very respectfully,
J. B. CURNuTT.

We understand that S. w Lee,
chief engineer of the st. L. & N. A.
K. R., has been in the field, survey
ing for the extension of the road
from Harrison to Fort Smith.
The matter of fuel has become
quite an item with the railroads and
more than one road now operates
its own coal mines, the output of
which is for it's own use. Thous-
ands of acres of coal land in Pennsyt
vania and other Eastern and Middle
States have been acquired by the
roads. And now the st. l.. & n. A.,
though a comparatively short line,
seeks independence along this line,
and will build its roadbed into the
heart of Arkansas coal field, and
thus solve the fuel problem. Eureka

Bellefonte Canning Factory Notes.

The factory is to be located on the
main siding 125 feet northeast of the
depot building at Bellefonte, the
ground having been leased by the
canning company from the railroad
for that purpose. Plans for the
building are being drawn and per-
fected.
All persons who subscribed for
acreage may apply to the Commit
tee at Bellefonte for seed which will
be furnished free to all persons
who sign contracts to furnish the
canning company tomatoes this
year, as the company has decided to
equip factory having a capacity of
$4,000 cans daily, using a car of
cans every three days. Parties who
have not already subscribedfor acre
age should do so at once as the seed
should be sown in well prepared
beds not later than March Goth,
and if sooner, all the better
Plants should be transplanted in
rows after they have become 4 or 5
inches high, 5 feet each way Many
growers prefer to plant more than 5
feet each way, SO do not crowd your
plants, but leave room for air and
sunshine between the rows. In
transplanting do not wait for rain,
but use from one pint to a quart of
water to each hill, drawing carefully
loose dirt around the plants, and in
case any do not live transplant i'm
mediately. After transplanting the
plants should be well cultivated.
For seed and growers contracts APP
ply to the Committee at Bellefonte.

Delicate Surgical Operation.

A celebrated astronomer suffered
acutely for over twelve years from
an unknown trouble in his leg. The
surgeons did not seem to be able to
diagnose his case. He finally went to
the Johns Hopkins hospital at Balti-
more, and an examination by two
young surgeons showed that the lame
ness was due to a diseased nerve in
the leg. The patient was told that the
operation would be painful, and in the
nature of an experiment, as it had
been tried only once before, in France,
in which instance it was successful.
The patient refused to take anaesthet-
les, as he desired to witness the oper-
alton Is far as possible. The leg was
opened and the nerve was found to
be diseased, and the patient directed
the surgeons to cut it out. The nerve
was entirely removed, the wound
closed and in ten days the patient was
able to dress himself and walk about
the hospital, and he is now able to
go up and down stairs and walk hall
a mile at q time.

Tho Claim Was justified.

Visitors to the Paris exposition may
have noticed over one OF the restau-
rants the inscription. "Ici on parle
toutes les langues." Those who are
familiar with the results obtained in
French restaurants where "Anglais" is
spoken will, naturally be rather skep-
tical about this comprehensive claim
to speak all the languages under the
SUM-. A visitor recently remarked to
the manager: "You must have a great
many interpreters here" mot one,'
was the reply. Who, then, speaks all
the languages?" "The customers,
monsieur."-New York Chronicle.
