In Sunnv France.

In Sunny France.
No more the thrice-rung Convent bell
Across the vale
Bids us join voice with Gabriel
"Hail. Mary, Hail!"
flushed is the deeptoned voice that
told
OF God-made man;
The Faith my country learnt of old
Is under ban.
To school the children troop no more
With prattling mirth
From nuns meek lips to learn the lore
OF Heaven and Earth.
No more the Sister lifts the latch
OF cottage door
To cheer the housewife worn, to watch
The suffering poor.
The tyrant prates with lying mouth
OF Liberty;
But frowns on Innocence and Youth
And Poverty.
Foor France! Is this the chivalry
That once thy sons
Held firm as Truth, this tyranny
On little nuns?
True Freedom ever strives to soar
To this ideal:
To tend the weak, and guard the poor,
The sick to heal.
2-i::sHs ....--.t:za
God. send true liberty and peace,
Thy Truth advance!
And let the DEVILS triumph cease
Ger sunny France!

A Murder Story That Fell Down.

A story from Lowell furnished food for the gossips last week and there were so many different yer sions that we give the following true account:
 One W. H. Jones recently dis appeared from his home near Lowell and friends and relatives suspicioned that W. l.. Long, who had posessession of the formers team and wagon, was responsi- ble for same and there were dark hints of murder, etc. When the story reached Rogers the editor was told that Jones had been found under bluff with bullet in his brain.
 Long was arrested but when the case came to trial the charge was amended to make 1t obtain ing goods under false pretenSeS. It was proved quite conelusively that Jones had left the country and had told several parties of his intentions. Jones had pur- chased goods at Lowell in the name of Long and it was claimed Long secured the wagon and team for considerably less than their real value by threatening him with criminal prosecution. Long was bound over to await the action of the grand jury in the sum of $500 which was promptly furnished. -- Rogers Democrat.

From Washington.

1905.-Dear Editor and readers of the Springdale News: l will endeavor to write letter to my dear old Arkansas home, which perhaps many of the readers will recognize my signature when seen. am reader of The News and find many little notes which are interesting and think the paper the best of its kind.
 was born in Washington County, Ark, and was reared in Washington and Madison Coun- ties until the age of fifteen years, then coming with my parents to the west. We arrived in Conley City, Washington, Sept. 15, 1902
 We moved to ranch known as the Cunningham Ranch one mile from town. We lived there nine months. We then moved from there to town and lived there nineteen months. While there l attended the public school
 and completed the ninth grade. My father owns a ranch nine miles south of Bridgeport. We moved from Conlee City May 3, 1904, to the ranch where we now reside. This is the Big Bend country. The great wheat belt of Douglas County. Conlee City Is d small town situated on the Northern Pacific k. K. and the Great Northern Cutoff. Its pop ulation is 250. 1t is d great ship ping point, the farmers haul their grain there distance of B and 40 miles for shipment. The production of this state is wheat, oats, rye, barley and po- tatoes known here as spuds. All kinds of fruit and vegetables grow ln great abundance.
 Bridgeport Is located 45 miles from Conlee City on the Columbia river. The town is built on the banks of the river. It is a boat landing. The ships bring every thing that furnishes the town and surrounding country. They run from Seattle to Bridgeport. The town also has beautiful scenery. I, for one, will speak highly of this country, although 1t has it's disadvantages same as any other state. In summer the weather is dry and dusty never rains hard and scarcely ever thunders or lightens. In winter the disad- vantage is heavy snow. It has been known to be seven feet on the level. Nevertheless the weather Is never cold as in Ark ansas. The SHOW is now 2 ft deep. While yet it is very warm 1t seems strange that the snow does not melt away. After fall ing 1t lays on the ground from three to five months. Some will ter days are as bright and warm as a spring morning, still the snow does not go away. The greatest amusement for young people during the winter months is sleighing. A great many of these Westerners are rowdy and take a great delight in dancing, while yet they are very kind. Still there Is another class of peo- pie who do not attend balls and whist parties Their way of en- tertainment Is social gathering, musicales, box, pie, pound and oyster suppers. We have Sunday School during the summer months but no church. We have no min , is ter in this part ot the country. If few of you Arkansas people would just come out on Clayton's
