WHITE REACHES STAND.

White river has about reached a stand and if the gauge were here, it would register in excess of twenty feet, for the report at Jacksonport Wednesday morning was 20.8 feet and rising at the rate of two-thirds of an inch per hour.
 Therecent rains have not af- fected Black river and this alone saved our valley a disastrous overflow. The low bottoms are under water and the big corn field of J. w. Baker above this city is ruined and must be re- planted.
 Cotter reports a fall of 5 1-2 feet, and at Batesville a stand has been reached, so it is evident the crest of the rise has gone down, and without further rains, we have nothing to fear.

 MT. V. G. Richardson Suddenly ,,. Stricken While Walking On rs Madison Street In lfA - s.s Memphis.

Monday afternoon, says the Commercial Appeal, young man in a light brown suit was walking down Madison street be- tween Main and Second, when. he suddenly sank to the pave ment and lay in the hot sun un- able to arise. 4-st
 It was about 2 o'clock and di-'f rectly in front of the Commercial Appeal office. A number of by-E islanders hastened to his assistr4 ance. He was seemingly in no pain and smiled as he asked to- be let alone for a few moments. when he expected to be all rights ''It's in my legs," he said with a smile. "I can't move them. o'F He was lifted to some steps near by and sat there for about halff an hour, expecting every moment ! to be able to get up and walk. 1nE this he was disappointed, and9 finally had to be assisted to a car
 CAUGHT A BULLET. .sE
 During the recent election for governor in the state of Arkansas there was more or less trouble growing out of the heated nature of the campaign. Personal feel-ii ing ran high and several shooting affrays were the result. In one of these V. G. Richardson of Newport, Ark, the young man mentioned, had the misfortune to be hit with a bullet from a A. caliber Colt revolver. The bull let entered his right groin and finally lodged over the spine. The exact location was determined by the X rays, and it was for the purpose of having it extracted that he came to Memphis on this visit.
 The wound was inflicted by an officer of the city in which the affray occurred, and healed ap- parently without serious results. MT. Richardson said on Saturday he called upon Dr. Smythe and was informed that he might be paralyzed at any moment, and that it was his intention to have an operation for the extraction of the bullet performed before leaving the city. The occurrence of Monday, however, came as horrible shock, and he expects to return to his home at Newport and make another trip here for the operation. In appearance, dress and conversation the young man is evidently of good breed ing. He has been stopping at No. 9 Linden street.

used for the receSsiOnal and the wedding party immediately re- paired to the home of the bride, where the newly wed were over- whelmed with congratulations. They were the recipients of many elegant presents, one of the handsomest being a silver. ser vice of table and tea spoons, forks and pearl handle knives, a token of the esteem in which the fair bride is held by the members of the Presbyterian church.
 MID SHOWERS OF RICE.
 The bride and groom left that evening at II o'clock for a honeymoon with relatives of the groom at Fredericktown and other points in Missouri. The best man and maid of honor also left upon the same train, and as all shared in the showers of rice the passengers doubtless thought it a case of a double wedding.
 There were bells, shoes, socks and appropriate placards enough to go around for half a dozen newly married couples and if MT. and Mrs. Hawn ever revive an appetite for rice they will be assured of a ripe old age in which to enjoy the domestic felicity, success and prosperity which a host of Newport friends join the Independent in wishing them.
 COSTUMES WORN.
 The bride, naturally beautiful, with even features and sparkling eyes, wore an elegant white silk, elaborately shirred with lace trimmings over white taffeta. She carried a boquet of white peas and was the recipient of general compliment. She will be much missed in Newport, for her friends are many and her talent as a piano performer will cause her to be often missed in the city's social entertainments.
 Miss Harrington wore a simple but very beautiful Persian null, trimmed with lace, and carried a boquet of sweet peas of pinkish hues. She is one of Poplar Bluffs belles and was generally admired here.
 The groom and his attendants wore the conventional black. MT. Hawn is a handsome young man and his even-tempered disposi- tion, pleasing manners and gen. tlemanly conduct have acquired him a host of friends. He is at present in the dispatcher's office of the Iron Mountain at Little Rock, which will be their home for the present, but we hope and understand it to be true that they may soon return to this city.

JOHNSON-HAWN
 CHURCH WEDDING.
Beautiful Marriage of Miss Claire Johnson to MT. O. D. Hawn of Little Rock Celebrated
 Tuesday Evening.

and all Newport society it would seem love a wedding, for therein do the lovers plight their troth and take upon themselves VOWS that are only ended in death, and the impressiveness of this thought and supreme importance of that mo .1ent when courtship leads to rsnae.altar the captives of a mu- tual affection, focus about the wedding the interest of the pub- lie as well as climax the love story of bride and groom.
 The Presbyterian church was crowded to it's capacity Tuesday evening to witness the Johnson Hawn wedding, and many were compelled to await without it's pretty walls, made inviting by recent improvements. To the in- conner was presented a pleasing scene, trim in tastily arranged floral decorations. Around the chancel and for a background which partially screened the choir was heavy embankment of potted plants and fern, a mass of greenery through woven vine. Immediately in front was pretty arch, from whose semicircle proud magnolias in liveriee of white midst dark surroundings smiled down benisons of approval and good will upon this trysting spot.
 At the appointed hour, 8:45 D.. m., Miss Hester Phillips, who possesses a finely cultivated voice of much sweetness, sang very prettsly As I Have Chosen You," which was followed by a beautiful rendition of a bridal chorus taken from "The Rose Maiden" by a choir composed of Mesdames George Sink, T. S.. Stephens, s. M. Beattie, c. ". Beard, F. Bosch, Estelle Claridge, Misses Hester Phillips, Gene Randy, Jamie Stephens, Messrs. w. c. Wharton, J. D.. Neal, R. H. Askew and Wm. Magoffin, Mrs. Edyth Johnson being the accompanist.
 Before the conclusion of these numbers the wedding party had arrived and the ever popular strains of Mendlessohn's march announced their entrance. Mrs. George Sink, a performer of much expression, presided at the organ ard was accompanied by Miss Gene Randy, a capable interpre- ter of melody upon the violin. ! The ushers entered singly via the two aisles, Messrs. w. T. d Parish, George K. Stephens and frank Gullette upon the left and a M. Berger, IT,, P. H. Van Dyke de Ia w. B. Egan upon the right.

younger teachers got q few of the pre-
paratory boys out for footraces. That
day, for Beirut at least, the death blow
was struck to the picturesque dress Of
the Orient. You can't run 100-yard
dash with long, baggy drawers and a
silk gumbeZ that fiops around your
ankles. Even If you "gird up the
loins,' by tuclking your skirts into the
sash, the effect is more startling than
speedy. So. one by one, the students
ordered trousers from the city tailors.
At first they were poorly cut and
viewed with suspicion; but to-day
there are not three men in the col
legiate department who wear the old
costume, and many of the students
dress with taste and an elegance that
their professors cannot afford to emu
late.
Tennis and basketball soon won their
place in the students favor; and now
we have gymnastie apparatus and
regular graduated athletic director,
who has learned physical culture and
boy nature through long experience
in the gymnasiums Of America. But
it was football that did the most to-
ward unification. The value Of team
work is new idea to eastern college
men. The old ideal was that Of "every
man for himself" 1t has been so
since the time of Alcibiades and Absa-
Iom. If it had not been so the history
Of the world might have been different.
It was comparatively easy to see the
joy Of winning a footrace or a tennis
match; but to play an untheatrical part
in football game, obeying a captain
and working for the good Of the Sd.a,
that was very different thing. We
always play the association game,
and 1t used to be the ideal Of every
player to get the ball and carry it
down the field all by himself, while the
audience cheered bravo, JURY" So
we arranged matches with the crews
of visiting British frigates, and from
sad experience our boys learned the
value Of back plays and frequent pass
es, and began to see dimly the truth
that good football is played, not with
the legs or the mouth, but with the
head, and that hard teamwork is far
better than grandstand plays. That
lesson may change the map Of Asia
some day.

The Advantage of Being Ill.

One Of the greatest difficulties in life
is Illness when the hands are full Of
work, and Of business requiring atten-
ton. In many cases the strain and
anxiety, which causes resistance to the
illness, is even more severe, and makes
more trouble than the illness itself.
Suppose, for instance, that man is
taken down with the measles, when he
feels that he ought to be at his office,
and that his absence may result in Sc
rious loss to himself and otners. If he
begins by letting go, in his body and
in his mind, and realizing that the Ill
ness is beyond his own power, it will
soon occur to him that he might as
well turn his illness to account by get
ting a good rest out Of it. In this
frame of mind his chances of early re-
covery will be increased, and he NAV
even get up from his illness with so
much new life and with his mind so
much refreshed as to make up, in part,
for his temporary absence from bust
ness. But, ON the other hand. If he
resists, worries, complains and gets IT.
ritable, he irritates his nervous system
and, by so doing. is likely to bring on
any one of the disagreeable troubles
known to follow measles; and thus he
may keep himself housed for weeks,
perhaps months, instead of days.-Les-

Renewing strawberry Reda.


Without doubt the digging OF new
plants and setting them regularly in
the place they are to grow is the best
way Of obtaining the new strawberry
bed. True, this requires considerable
labor and the selection of the best run
ners from the old bed. If this plan Is
to be followed the best plants will be
obtained by going over the old bed
as the runners are forming and keep
ing the tips cut of to one or more
plants, so as to obtain strong plants
for re-setting. Another advantage Of
this plan is that just the number of
plants that may be set in given Pc
riod are dug, so that none are left to
dry out as with plants bought
The other plan of making the new
bearing plantation is good one, and
quite generally followed, especially
where the berries are grown on the
matter row plan. The mower is run
over the field after the crop is gathered
and, after raking off the cut plants, a
light plow is run through the field and
about one-half Or more of the plants
cut out, leaving the new ones, which
will be about a foot apart. composed
of the new plants. Care is required
in this work, but the results will be
profitable, provided the new plants
formed are strong.

selecting Seed Corn.

The true selection Of a better breed
of corn is not confined to the selection
Of the best ears by any means, al
though this is the popular idea of corn
improvement. AS every corn raiser
knows, certain seed will raise corn
that is almost ideal, so far as the ear
goes, but there are but few ears on a
plant.
This being the case, it is evident
that the true selection of corn is the
selection of the plants which show the
desired chara cteristics all through their
growth up to the time of harvest, so
that the plants should be closely
watched FROM the time they break
ground and thus securing the habit Of
growth as we'll as the perfection Of ear
so desirable
Many of the plants will make a
stronger growth than others and ripen
the full cop earlier; If such a plant
is what is desired, it can only be found
by watching it's growth through the
season. Then if the yield is all that
is desired one comes pretty near hav-
ing the :deal plant and one which is,
probably, capable of even greater i'm
proyement.
