BOOMING ARLINGTON HEIGHTS.
Beautiful Suburban Addition of Coming Texas City, Fort Worth, Being Sold by Representatives
 Now in Newport.

The promise and future of Fort Worth, Texas are assured
 and visitors to that city are al-
 most unanimous in proclaiming
 it's coming greatness in a con- mercial way. With twelve trunk lines entering the city and a pop lation of 2,O00,000 within a 150 mile radius, the location of Fort Worth is incomparable. In clim- ate, beautiful homes, handsome buildings, paved boulevards the city offers unexcelled advantages. The city has achieved prominence as a jobbing center and by reason of it's packing industries and has been a fast grower doubling real estate values in the past three years.
 MT. P. R. Cook, assisted by MT. Vim, is now in this city, representing the Interstate In vestment Company of Shreve- port, Louisiana. This company has invested $75O, 900 in the pur- chase and improvement of Ar lington Heights, an addition ad- jacent to the city on the west, high in altitude, perfect in drain age, and in every way adopted for a fashionable suburb. Of this tract, the company is plac- ing 645 of the choicest lots on the market and MT. Cook is meeting with a big success in their sale. The president of the company is J. s. Handford of Batesville and the secretary MT. J. A. Wat kins of Little Rock, both we'll known in Newport.
 In Batesville, Messrs. Cook and Vim sold over 80 lots and in this city many conservative
 business men have shown their confidence in this invest ment by subscribing for several lots.

EXTENDING BOUNDARIES.
Some of Our Larger Cities Have An nexed Ground Far Into Adja-
 cent Farm Lands.

According to recently issued eensus ways indicated by the order in which they stand in the tables of population. Some great centers have considerable part of their massed population lying outside the municipal boundaries. Bos. ton is a good example,; about 200, 900 people live in sight of the state house dome. and less than 60O,O00 of them are governed by the Boston mayor. Other cities have annexed far into the farm lands of the adjacent country, says Youths Companion.
 It is customary to speak of the popula- tion of a state, 'in proportion to ita size" Such a comparison is seldom made of cities, although 1t might not be uninteresting. Pittsburg. for example. has a population of a third of a million on 18,000 acres of ground; New York's population, little more than ten times as great, spreads over nearly F times as many acres.
 Chicago was long famous for it's an nexation habit, but since 1890 New York has annexed much more territory than Chicago's total area. New Orleans has a slightly larger area than Chicago. Each of them covers six times the area of Baltimore.
 Washington. which occupies the Mary. land part of the ten miles square s.e aside for a national capital, is fair siZsd city as area goes, for this genera tion. It may seem small a century hence, although it looked abundantly ample for all the purposes of urban development when laid out.
 Ip the case of cities, as we'll as of other corporations, consolidation is plainly ore of the tendencies of the times. More than one-third of those in the United States have added to their territory by annexation since 1890. Townships and counties are occasionally subdivided, by reason of local interests, but tho cities seem to be steadily pushing their boun. daries outward. There are some eco homie reasons for this. but the reason In many cases has been the desire of their inhabitants to make "good show ,ng."

jOnpsbOro Banquets Committee.

Jonesboro, Feb. 6.-The sym odical committee of the Arkan- sas presbytery which has been in session at various towns over the state, met in Jonesboro to- day to look into Jonesboro's claim as to the site for the erec- tion of the new female college, which is to be built shortly.
 The gentlemen were rendered a banquet last evening at the Warner House, and many warm speeches were made in behalf of the city. A carriage ride over the city was given this morning, and in the afternoon they were entertained at the Elks' Hall. Jonesboro people think they have a good advantage over the other cities that are bidding for the college. As this is the last town in which they have to meet, the decision will likely be given out shortly.

MOST POPULAR NUMBERS.
ssveu and Thirteen Are Fixed Upon in the Minds of the Greater
 Number of Men

"Ask q man to pick out some num- ber between one and ten. and you can tell him nine times out of ten what number he has selected. though his se. lection is made mentally" said man who, according to the New Orleans Times-Democrat, Is fond of the old things. and when you come to think of it. the task of naming the correct number is not a difficult ona. In tha course of an hour the other day { asked ten men to think of certain number-any number between oRe una ten-and I would tell them what mum. Der they had fxsd their mind on. In nine cases out of ten l vas correct missing 1t only oncA The minds ol nine of the persons selected the mum. Der seven. and one of them selected nine. It Is not diMcult to understand why the mind should run to the num- Der seven. Even in the case of the man who fixed his mind on ths num- Der nine, he told me when 1t vas all over that his mind had first run to seven. but he quickly changed to uina WAbuOuS huOWIh5 JuoI Wng AI W do IAoS be changed. Seven is the most prom inent figure between one and ten. It S the most popular number in the line, and is associated with more things than any other number, and 1t Is quite reasonable that the mind should light on seven. made another test the other day with five persons, asking each of them to write some number between one and ten, and give 1t to sixth per- son. When the slips had been handed to the sixth man I said: Seven is the number on each of the slips
 "'Correct," said the man to whom they had been handed, and the fvs men were bit bewildered for the moment by the fact that they had all hit upon the same number, and that was able to tell what the number was. It would be quite as easy to name a number between 10 and 20, though have made no tests along this line. [ dare say that 13 would be the first number to flash in the mind, simply because 1t is the most talked of, and the only number between 10 and 20 that has the widest association. So you can tell there is no trick about it. and 1t doesn't require any knowledge of the occult philosophies."

Tn the Right Room.

At the latest of the ladies' clubs 6 pets room," with little stalls for dogs and cats, lemurs and lizards, all tn. small creatures that lady finds neces- sary as companions, is provided.
 One of the most enthusiastic members was showing her friends of her OWE sex over the establishment, and opened the door of the pets room with proper pride.
 There, in the center of tho room, on two chairs, sat two immediately clothed young men, grave of face, but with a wicked twinkle in their eyes.
 Don't you know this is the lad,es pets room?'" asked the enthusiasti, member, with some acerbity.
 "That's why we are here" replied ths more serious of the two young men, with becoming gravity.-Sporting Times.

said the vender, thinking of the time
since he had left his inland home.
Three months, is it? Only three
months an as black as thot? Faith
