 Editor Times: This company is about to embark on campaign for the uphuilding of Arkansas.
 Before beginning this work, 1 sh0Ald like to hear from representative citizens, editors of newspapers, real estate agents, business men, secretaries of commercial clubs. etc.
 Eeal estate men can render valuable assistance by furnishing me with a com plete list of the lands they have for sale, together with information as to improve ments, soil, crops raised. ot for which the soil Is best adapted, average yield. price per acre, etc. This is needed to enable me to put inquirers in touch with owners or agents. Others can suggest common sense plans of accomplishing our purpose, They can tell ds what class Of people we should endeavor to interest and what is the best way to interest them. Commercial clubs can be of service if they will advise me that business open ings exist in their respective towns, an d what assistance these towns will render prospectives investors.
 Farmers and fruit raisers can help the good work by giving me the benefit of their experience as to the crops which are most profitable.
 As an editor you can help by directing the attention of your readers to the work we are doing. and having once aroused their Interest in 1t, continue it by frequent editorial reference to the progress being made. Would be glad to hear any sug- geStons you may have to make regarding your own particular section. Owners of large tracts of cut over timber lands should advise me where their ! lands are located what can be raised on them, prices and terms of sale, and if suitable for colonization purposes. It will take about four or five years tO bring about a substantial increase in the population of the territory along our lines | in Arkansas, and in order to prevent costly mistakes, which will have to be rectifed later, it Is essential that we start right.
 The hearty cooperation of every one who has the interest of Arkansas at heart IS solicited. If you are willing to devote 1 space for this purpose | think it would be well to publish this letter in two or three issues of your paper, in order that all of your readers may know what we are doing and if they so desire, cooperate with us in bringing about the development of Arkansas. Yours truly,
 GEO, II. LEE.

PURIFY THE BLOOD.
You Can't Purify the Blood Thor-' oughly Unless You Stimulate
 the Kidneys.
They are the Real Blood CIeansers->

It is a popular notion that "sarsapa- rillas" and similar compounds purify the blood. Medical men know that this is a false idea because they know that the blood is purified to a large extent by the kidneys. If these are ailing, no amount of so-called "blood purifier" can be of the least help in cleansing 1t. For impure blood look to the kidneys, they are weak, they need help to prop erly perform the duty of extracting inn purities from the circulation. The kid ney tonic properties of Prickly Ash Bitters are especially appropriate for purifying the blood. It not only spurs the kidneys to greater activity, giving them strength and vigor, but drives the extracted matter out of the body through the bladder and bowels. It is in short a thorough system cleanser and blood purifier; it imparts new life to the kid neys, stimulates the torpid liver, removes constipation and permanently cures q oonstipated habit.
 Accept no substitute. Insist on having

Eight Pistol Totsrs.

Blackfish Siding is d platform station in St. Francis bottom, about twelve miles east of Forrest City.
 The inhabitants of that section work ut the timber business. and dd pretty much as they please, SC long as they don't get toe gay. and the colorcd ele- ment over there have been setting rather lively pace lately. Drinking, crap shooting. pistol toting and sundry other little pas times of d kindred nature. have been freely enjoyed, and they have been un- molestcd, owing to the fact that they nave heretofore kept reasonably quiet.
 Last Saturday, however things took on deeper hue of red in which Dude Armfield, d mulatto woman formerly of this city, was tic central 1 figure.
 It seems that she quarrel,ed with a negro named Charley Allen. and he took three shots at her with his trusty SiX-Shooter. His aim being bad she escaped without scratch to the commlsSary, where she was protected by Nick Stone, brother-in-law of ]. W. Fulcher, who employs the negroes. This cnraged Allen, and he threatened Stones life.
 The negroes had been raid off. and were drinking, and for awhile things looked rather blue for Stone. as Allen was backed by six or eight other darkies.
 News of the impending race riot was telephoncd to Memphis and to this city, and brother of Stones came to his assistance, and Dephty-SheritT k K. Swan repaired at once ,o the scene l of action.
 MT. Swan soon corralled seven of the negroes, and Allen, making the eighth was covered with gun and com. handed to come into custody. He probably would have refused if he had thought there was d chance of out. Witting the Sheriff, or of getting the drop on him, but at that moment Sam SkipwOrth arrived on the scene and Allen was relieved of a big gun. and together with tine others, were brought to town and lodged in jail.
 The party consisted of Chas Allen Will and Chas. Jpncs. Will Pedan Nose Hudson, Henry Lacey, Van Ryan and Henry Graham.
 Allen was charged with carving { pistol, and fined $50. He was alS, charged with assault with intent tt Kill. and bound over in the sum of 800 to await the action of the grand jury in default of which he went to jail
 Each of the other seven negroes. cX cept Henry Lacey, were charged witt carrying pistol and were fined s5t and costs. Lacey was fined S50 for assault
 Will Pedan was bound to Sam Swan to work out his fine, and left Wednesday.
 Nose Hudson had aR experience q couple of weeks age, in which he drop. ped his pistol. IL was exploded. and the shot came ar taking the life of d negro woman, and the ball took lodg ment in his leg, from which he has mol yet entirely recovered.
 No further trouble is anticipated and its thought this application ol the law will bring these gay and festive pistol toters 10 d sterr realization ol 4 it's majesty and their liability.
 We hope so. at any rate.

VIII Go to Atlanta If He Comes South.
 Abner Powell, manager of the At lanta baseball team, said last night that if Pitcher Dougherty comes back to the Southern League. he will play withe the Crackers.
 According to an agreement among ed into the major organizations wno fail to make good, revert to the club from which they were secured. This rule, says Mir. Powell. applies to Dougherty, who was drafted last fall by the Chicago Americans. This club has already paid s200 on the purchase of the popular pitcher. and will be due $500 more than first of June. This can be forfeited and the player comes back to his old berth.
 Powell would be very well pleased to have the money yet coming and se- cure the man, as he says Dougherty is very popular with the Atlanta fans. It Is also known that correspondence is now being carried on looking to this end,
