properties they contain and to which for untold
centuries the Indians travelled from hundreds of
miles, having belief that all their ailments were
cured by bathing in the waters.
The MeNicans have theory that the arrowhead
is the work of human hands, and tell a story that
hundreds of years ago Indian brave discovered
the wonderful hot springs, which became known
far and wide for their healing powers, and in order
that those coming from distance could readily
find their way to the waters of life " it was decided
in a council of the various tribes to mark the spot
in some manner. All sorts of devices were suggested

NNE OF the most reTllaTkaDle
| freaks of nature i'll the United
States, if not in the world, is
to be seen in the coast range OF the
Sierra Madre Mountains, about ten
miles north of San Bernardino in
Southern California This is the
great arrowhead.
1t lies far up on the side of the
mountain, plainly diScernible at a
distance of forty miles, pointing
sentinel-like into the beautiful San
Bernardino Valley, one of the most
fertile and productive sections in
the State.
"How did it get there?" is in
variably the first question of those
who view this wonderful phenomenon
for the first time. This is a question
the oldest inhabitants of the valley
themselves would like to have an
swered. The most agod members Of
the Indian tribes vet living in the
valley shake their heads when the
question is propounded to them.
Nobody knows. Historians have
puzzled their brains in a vain at
tempt to solve the origin of the
arrowhead; but it hes to-day just as
it did hundred and fifty years ago,
which is as far back as it can be
traced among the Indians and
MeXicans.

A RECORD YEAR
 FOR RAINY WEATHER.

And the rains continue, which tells a dismal story to this agri- cultural section of blighed pros poets and ruined, crops. The river is rising, having reached 23 feet on the local gauge, yet Director Richards of Little Rock wires us the assurance that we need not fear 26 feet of water.
 s. o. Massey of Cotter tele- graphed his father that stock should be taken out of the low lands and from Calico Rock, Batesville and Cotter reports come of a rising river.
 April and May thus far show a rainfall of 16.24 inches, a top- notch record, and the prospects of better weather are not 1atter- ing.

,,--sc-'-, TELLING HIS TALE
 OF WOE AND WHY.

'I once was young, but now l am old, ," said a grayhaired man recently. 'I have travelled over all the states of the Union and nearly all the countries of the world. I have listened to tales Fof woe from people of all na- tions. I have studied the cause of these failures in all lands and climes, and l am convinced that the majority of pauperism and crime of the world is due to the lack of practical training in youth to make an honest living and lay by something for a rainy day. !"
 What an inducement this is for young people to enter a commer- cial college and take a thorough course of bookkeeping, business training, shorthand, typewriting or telegraphy and fortify against the rainy day!!" It takes only a short time and small cost to finish such a course in the Mem phis Commercial College, 46 N. Second street, Memphis, Tenn. =

OCTAVE THANET
 ADDRESSES FARMERS.

The farmers union met at Clover Bend Friday and Satur- day and had a regular gala day or love feast. All took we'll filled baskets and an excellent spread was had. Miss Alice French, Octave Thanet, addressed the crowd upon the subject of good roads and handled the subject admirably, injecting into the sub- ject many good and practical ideas. The main idea advanced was that in making good roads we undertake to make too much sat once, cover too much terrlto- ry. Her idea was to begin at one end of the line and what road was made in one year should be made permanent and good, the next year make a lot more or as much as could be made, all the while doing what is done well. Wm. Rowe from the east ern district and B. F. Seagraves from the western district were again chosen delegates to the next state meeting. Lawrence County Blade.

Dat England Has Serious Ending Principals Give
 S1.OOO Bonds.

England, May 2l. About 9:3O last night a quarrel arose on Main street and during the fight which ensued T. J. Tygart, a leading druggist and ex-mayor, was shot in the abdomen and seriously in- jured, but it is not thought that the wound will prove fatal. Two shots were fired during the en- gagement, but parties concerned in the shooting can not be ascer- tained.
 Ben High, a popular young merchant, was taken into cus- tody on the statement of MT. Tygart and was released upon a bond of $1, 900, while J. w. Hicks was fined $25 for fourishing a pistol.
 At present nothing definite can be given as to who did the shoot ing, but it is believed by many that MT. Tygart was wounded by the discharge of his own re- volver.
