Bluff Wins Again.

Poplar Bluff won the second of the series at Sportsman's park Thursday afternoon, winning by the score of 3 to 2.
 Smiling Bob Randy did the pitching against the team he once lined up with, and struck out seven of his old colleagues. Bockwitz was notas hard prop osition to the home boys as Wag- ner had been the previous day, and there were only four strike outs" to his credit.
 Newport played in hard luck, in that her good hits were badly scattered, at one time a three bagger, and all for nothing. The Manhattan (shirt, not cocktail) offered by Joe Berger for the first run made by a home player became the property of Hender- son in the sixth inning.
 The game was an exhibition that any league city might be proud of, attended by good crowd and thoroughly enjoyed.

CLEAN-UP ORDERED.
Texarkana Puts five Hundred Men tO Work-LoCal Militia Company
 In Service.

Texarkana, Aug. 3.-J. A.. Taylor, a young man who came here Saturday from Alexandria, La., via Shreveport, was found in the Southern hotel suffering from fever. The young man lives here and he had been suf- fering from chills and malaria for week before he arrived home. This fact accounted for the fever, but under the present conditions, and to allay any pos sible uneasiness, he was removed to an isolated house two miles out of the city as a precaution- ary measure. AS a further sat- isfaction to the public the hotel was thoroughly fumigated. CLEANING-UP BEING PUSHED.
 The cleaning-up process is be- ing pushed. The Arkansas side will put force of five hundred men on the streets and alleys tomorrow. The local military company is under arms by order of Gov. Davis, and under direc- tion of the sheriff and county judge will do quarantine duty.
 All Cotton Belt trains from the north have been discontin- ued, and unless the order is obeyed the trains will be stopped by military force. The authori- ties express a fixed purpose to be scrupulously honest with the out side public and say that when ever it is learned that there is a case of yellow fever here the fact will be at once published to the world.
 CONFEDERATE REUNION POST
 TONED.
 On account of the unsettled condition of things the reunion of the Eleventh Texas and Third Arkansas Cavalry, U. c. V., which was to have begun here tomorrow, has been indefinitely postponed.

YELLOW FEVER
There Is No Occasion For Alarm
Rererber The Lessons of The
 Epidemic of 16o6.

As we are now threatened with another visitation of the dreaded yellow fever it is well to remem- Der the experiences of the last occasion. In all sections where yellow fever made it's appear ance it will be recalled that per sons who kept their stomach, liver and bowels strong and active were not affected by the disease; while others apparently healthy were stricken down. These latter were all more or less habitually canstipated, bilious or victims of bad digestion; as re- suit the blood became impure and the vital organs were unable to resist the deadly fever germs. Now is the time to prepare for what is to follow. Get your fam fly and yourself in shape to re- sist the disease. You don't know when you are exposed to it; every man you meet may be affected, and if you put your preparations off from day to day you may be too late. The sensi- ble course is to begin at once taking Prickly Ash Bitters, that marvellous system regulator and blood purifier. Use 1t regularly every day. Half a wine-glassful each morning after breakfast will keep your bowels open and healthy; it will also strengthen the stomach and digestion, purify the blood and by stimulating the liver and kidneys all bile and uric acid impurities will be driven out of the body. In short, it puts the system in perfect order. Remember 1898. That was record year for Prickly Ash Bitters. In the sections where it was used the most there were fewest cases of fever. You connot do better in this hour of danger than to make use of the means which experience has proven to be the best for fight ing off this terrible scourge. 78

Two Successful Girl Editors.

Down in the wild and undevel- oped but picturesque part of Ar kansas is situated the little town of Leslie. Its principal industry is the little lumber business, con- sequently saw mill and stave mill employees constitute the princi- pal part of the population. De- spite the undeveloped character of the country and the rough mannerisms of it's inhabitants, two former Kansas City girls
Newport daily independent., 1905-08-04

have seen fit to locate in 1t and enter a field that in country towns has generally been re- garded as belonging to man-the field of journalism.
 The young ladies are the Misses Margaret and Lillian Walton, daughters of R. C. Walton, a mining engineer, who until a year ago resided in Kansas City. They are editors and publishers of the Leslie News, a fve-column folio and a very newsy country per. They employ no solicitors nor employees of any sort, doing their own typesetting and on press-days one would not recog- nize in the perspiring and ink besmeared young ladies two for mer habitues of the ball room. Both misses are young, Marga- ret, being 20 and Lillian 1e, the former being a member of the 1902 graduating class of the Kansas City high school.
 They were entirely without experience in the newspaper field, yet they have established the News upon a paying basis in a little over a year, having over 800 circulation at the rate of S1 per year. In addition to this they have a large job printing patronage, while the editorial columns of their paper are fre- quently quoted by the press of the state. We like the busi- ness fne," one of them said. You see, it is so different from what what we have been used to that we like the novelty of it, and it seems more like play. Of course it is rather dull here so- clally. It was especially so until last year when we got the rail- road, for we could never see any one but the local residents, but since it's arrival Leslie is begin ming to grow socially as we'll as otherwise. There is fine boat ing, fishing and swimming here, and sister and 1 are enthusiastic lovers of these sports. We also have two fine saddle horses and go horseback riding, so it's not so dull here as one would think. Then there is a fascination about the newspaper business, and be- sides we are making good mo- ney. "-Kansas City Star.
