DISGUSTED DuNkLINiTES.

of good repu.e." which means that
they are dyed.in-the-wool Democrats
are so dlsgusted over poor old Mis-
souri, going Republican that they
numerously signed and published a
petition to the legislature Of their
state asking, like the Israelites Of
old to be permitted to go in peace
and become citizens of Arkansas.
There is no Red Sea to cross, and
they want to take their county with
them. They say:
And Whereas, The said state of
Missouri has so far disgraced itself
that il went Republican in the last
election, so that no respectable and
law-abiding citizen las we are), can
without shame. acknowledge his res
idence therein,
Now, Therefore, We would re.
spectfully petition and do hereby pc
tition and pray that you, the Honor
able Legislature of the state of Mis-
souri, aforesaid. in regular session
convened, will cede and transfer the
aforesaid county of Dunklin to the
state of Arkansas SO that we may
again without shame acknowledge
the place of our citizenship.
The petition is dated at Horners-
vile, two days after the election.
We deeply sympathize with the
good people of Dunklin county and if
the Legislative Pharaoh refuses to
grant their request they should bor-
row all the jewelry from the Republi
can Egyptians and shake the dust
of Dunklin from their feet and move
across the line into Arkansas. where
the good water and big red apples
will greet and welcome them.
When a Democratic county sees
nothing but a state line between 1t
and the Democratic state of Arkan-
sas it should be permitted to jump
the fence lock, stock and barrel or
throw the line behind it and get in

ANTlDoTE FOR SPIDERS BITE.
Toad Ate Piece of PIantan When
Bitten BY Enemy.

Naturalists. keeping their eyes open

lst said In a club:
"A poisonous spider and toad
were fighting so fercely in field
recently that they didn't notice nay
approach. sat down on the grass
beside them.
The spider was big, black fellow,
very quick and fierce. He was the
aggressor. He would dodge about,
circle, retreat. advance, and then.
presto! all Of sudden he would be
on the toad's back biting away for
dear life.
The toad, with q movement of its
forefoot, would brush the spider off,
and then 1t would hop to plantain
that grew by my hand and eat piece
OF it.
This fight lasted for an hour. The
aggressive spider would bite the toad:
the toad would eat the plantaln; the
combat would go on again.
Il, to vary the monotony, tore the
plantain up and put 1t in my pocket.
Thus. the next time the toad came to
eat it. there was no plantain there.
The poor creature seemed distressed
at this. 1t hoped to and fro busily, as
though in search of another plantain,
and the spider. meanwhile, followed II.
biting II again and again.
But the toad paid no heed. 1t was
too busy looking for another plantain.
AS It searched its hops became weak
and erratic. The spiders poison
seemed to be working on 1t. In little
while II fell over on its side dead

SAW VISION OF HIS DEATH.
War Artist Believes he Has Had Pre-.
monition of His Fate.


Friends of distinguished war art
list now in Manchuria are said to be
taking an almost uneanny interest in
his return from the scene of war. 1t
rises out OF strange story told by
the artist himself. Years before the
artist began his long record of cam.
paigns he was out walking along a
quiet square in his native city when.
looking down, he suddenly saw a pool
of blood on the pavement.
Instantly, the story goes, from the
shock of the sight, he went off into a
sort OF trance. He was on a bleak
plain, running for his life from three
pursuing horsemen. He saw their
faces, knew tnat his efforts to escape
we're hopeless and then a swift blade
descended and cut off his heac. Al
ter that he came to himself and re-
sumed his walk, but he has always
had a conviction that this vision fore
BODIED the manner Of his death
Once during campaign in the SUI
dan. when the British square was
broken, he was pursued. 1t was with
relief that he recognized that the
mounted pursuers were not his men,
the men of the vision. He wonders
still when he will meet them.

WORRIES Us TOO MUCH

There Is a good deal of common sense
In the expression of views on the ques
ton of senatorial election by ALI
Cbartz in the last issue of the Gardner
Vile Courier. He says:
ut Is my opinion that we a a
great deal too much attention to our
senatorial elections. 1t would be diff
f1cult for US to trace any benefit de-
rived by the state at large from 1t.
Outside of the money spent for brass
bands, bonfires, halls. teams and board
and lodging, / cannot now think of any
benefit that Nevada gets from her
representation. Next in importance
to the farmer is the legislature and
state officers. About our most Inn
portant elections are those for county
commissioners and assessors and we
pay least attention to them. We
should pay greater attention to the
election of men who serve US nearest
home, ard the least to those who serve
us farther away. First govern the
family and ana the farm well. and
then the district in which you live. and
then the county. and next the state.
and finally the United States. which
includes the Philippine Islands TO-
certain purposes. You don't need to

The old lady comforted the girl as
