RAYMOND PUGH BOWEN


 Death came into the home of MT. and Mrs. Otto M. Bowen Monday evening and robbed a happy family and devoted par ents of their greatest comfort, Ijoy and pride in the life of an only son, Raymond Pugh, aged ' years, g months and 3 days.
 The little fellow was taken sick Wednesday with fever, which on Monday morning de- veloped into appendicitis and an operation for this trouble was to have been performed at 8 clock, as the seriousness of his illness was recognized, and to preserve life this step was thought neces- sary. But death forestalled the skill of surgery an hour and car- ried away the suffering child to the peace of another world.
 To the stricken parents is ex- tended the sympathy of all, for what loss is comparable to that of such a child, and in this in- stance about his memory will always hang recollections of the loving. unselfish nature by which his sweet character was ever manifested, to draw tighter the bonds of parental affection. The innocence and goodness of child hood have rich rewards in heav- enly crowns.
 The funeral services were held at the home Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock, conducted by Rev. T. F. Richardson, pastor of the Christian church, and burial fol- lowed at Walnut Grove.

WHEN LIFE IS DEPARTING.
Phenomena Which Electricity Has Disclosed in Animate
 Nature.

A. D. Waller, of the Paris Academy of Sciences. has devised an electrical means of distinguishing between Hv- ing and dead matter. His statement of the method is somewhat as fol- lows: Living matter responds to an electrical stimulus by yielding an after current in the same direction. The same matter after it has been killed by heating or other method does not respond to excitation unless 1t does so by causing reversed cur rent, due to polarization. This phe.l nomenon is characteristic of all IivineI matter, animal or vegetable. TheI similar induced current is the last sign of life and it's amount may even he used to measure the amount of vitality remaining. In order to make this test the body is first connected to delicate galvanometer and it there is any defection caused this is> corrected; an electrical stimulus is administered to the body and then the galvanometer again connected to it. If there is now a Reflection of the latter the body is living; no de- tection shows that it is indubitablx dead

FAMILY RECORD BIBLES.
They Arc StilI in Demand, Hut Not Sold to the Same Extent as
 Formerly.

Do we still sell the old-fashdoned fAm- fly Bible. with pages in it for the record of births, deaths and marriages? Oh, yes," said the bookseller, according to New York exchange, but not so many of them as we once did.
 There are more Bibles sold now, tak~ Ing them all together, than ever before, and the Bible is issued now in an almost endless variety of forms and styles; out the demand for it in this particular form is now, should say, not more than one-third what it once was.
 Still. we keep these record Bibles to- day in dozen styles, ranging in price from five dollars to S20. The blank rec ord pages, these often illuminated, are bound in between the two Testaments
 Tn some of these Bibles there is 6 blank presentation page upon which may be written the name Of the person to whom the Bible Is presented, with the name of the giver; and in some of them is contained blank marriage cep. ti1cate; and in some there are bound in with the pages for the record of births. deaths and marriages, pages for the rec ord of temperance pledges.
 These Bibles are more likely to bs bought nowadays by country people, and 1t might be by people of the German race and by Irish Protestants; al likely to be substantial people of comfortable means; conservative people who cling still to time-honored customs.
 "So, while the old-time family record Bible, with pages for the record oi births. deaths and marriages. has gone to the extent to which it once was, yet 1t is still sold, and the demand for 1t Is still considerable"

GLOVES FROM RAT SKINS.
Only One Pair Was Ever Made and That Was Very Small-Inter-
 esting Glove Lore.

A report comes from Copenha. gen that great rat hunt has been organized there, and that the skins of many thousands of the victims are to be used in making gloves. If the rat hunters in the Danish capital cherish any such hopes, says the Pail Mall Gazette, they are doomed to disappoint- ment.
 Rat skins cannot be made into gloves fit for commerce. The be- lief that valuable raw material is being neglected here survives only in the minds of the inexpert. The glove maker knows much better. A Norwegian merchant once came to England and in- formed we'll known glove maker that he had collected over 100000 rat skins and was prepared to re- ceive offers for them. He was fully convinced that the skins were suitable for glove making. But the manufacturer found that the largest skin was only some six inches long, and he held up kid skin for the smallest size of glove, child's, which was eight inches long, and asked how he was to cut such a glove out of rat skin.
 Then he took up the smallest kid skin for lady's glove, Il inch. es long, and when he asked how that was to be cut out of rat skin the Norwegian merchant laughed at the idea and went away disap. pointed. The best offer he got for those skins, which he had col lected with so much care, was five billings hundredweight from
 who was willing to boil them
 olne.

 ACCIDENTALLY DROWNED
Son of Representative Vim Lost His Life While Bathing
 in Creek.

Van Buren, Aug. 29. Booker Vim, son of Representative John R. Vim, while in bathing at Peavy House ford, on Lees creek, yesterday at 2 p. m., was drowned. This makes the third victim for Lees creek this year at that point. The body has not been recovered yet, and as it is a very swift and treacherous stream the corpse may wash out into the Arkansas river. A boy was drowned there in the spring, but was not found until the body reached Dardanelle, forty miles down the river.

 A. G. Stacy, a well-known newspaper man and editor of the Yellville Republican. was here Tuesday on his return home from a visit to Kansas City, where he happened to quite a serious acci- dent. In attempting to board a street car he was thrown upon the pavement and fractured his skull. The motorman had start ed the car with a jerk, and Mr., Stacy feels that he has grounds for damages, owing to this care lessness of an employe, and has brought suit against the Metro politan street railway system.
 c. E. Maynard was checked in Monday as successor to George Tremper, agent for the Pacific Express Company. Mr. Trem- per has made a very accommo- dating and careful agent, whom we regret to see leave. MT. and Mrs. Tremper have made many friends in Newport who wish them success and a pleasant home in Silver Bow, Montana, whither they expect to go. MT. Maynard has been in the service of the com pany for many years as messen- ger on the Batesville branch, and will no doubt make an efficient official. We congratulate him on his advancement.
