High Life in Gravette Town.

The most interesting case tried in the circuit court last week, says the Bentonville Democrat, was the state against Bert Ogles- by and Fred Ragsdale, charged with disturbing a congregation assembled for religious worship.
 Last December the Salvation Army held a meeting at Gravette. While Mrs. Captain Somebody was singing @ solo a half grown kitten came flying through the door and when it reached the floor it attracted much more at- tention than the singer. It had ali kinds of fits and in the lan- guage of the prosecuting attorney did everything eat could do.
 The state insisted that the de- fendant had put fhigh- life" on the cat and had pitched 1t into the church house in order to see what would happen. '.High-life" is sometimes called "squat drops" and is bisulphide of carbon, and when it is put on an animal pro- tected by hair or fur the animal does things.
 When the boys threw the cat into the room, they at once got action for their trouble and ex- pense. The cat squalled and jumped about like a thing pos sessed of 8 devil. The singer stopped for want of hearers. The women jumped on seats and wrapped their skirts around their ankles. The preacher got pos- session of the cat, took it out in the cool December night and kill ed it.
 At the spring term of court sixteen grave grand jurors in a body returned a true bill against defendants. On last Friday the state and the defendants joined issue on the indictment. The defendants denied having, ''high- flied" the cat. The circum- stances pointed strongly to their guilt. Various good men and good women testified that they were disturbed. The boys were traced to the place where the cat was thrown into the house. Oglesby admitted that he sold 'high-life" to one of the boys supposed to be in the "combine. :" The petit jury found the boys guilty and fined them $200 co each. Total fine and costs $50.
 The boys "high- -lifed' the eat. The jury gave the boys touch of high life. 1t was death to the cat, but fun for the boys. Still it was not worth the price.

 The teacher and pupils of the science department were made happy this week by the arrival of the new apparatus for the labratory, for which they had been eagerly looking during the past three weeks.
 Two or three very important organizations have been made among the pupils and faculty of the Normal this week. One reading circle of the members of the faculty with Prof. Crawford as president, which has for it's ob- jectlhe study of the religious lit erature of different people, com ?aring the same with the teachings of our own Bible. .. This club meets one evening each week. Another organization Is d young lad e8 club with Miss McShane as president. An outline of their work as given us py the president shows that this work will be both elevating and instructive.

comparatively little is obtained from

"The first box of Dodd's Kidney Pills
