PiCchi Losing Money.

Ai11Hi LVsius mUucy.
 "Stephen Picchi, the father of Picchi row, and one time a pros porous fruit dealer Tn this city, was Tn Fort Smith on Wednesday. lie IS now resident of Mena and laments ever leaving Fort Smith, saying that he would have been independent if he had only stayed in Fort Smith and held on to his property. Picchi is now manu featuring cigars in Mena, and is travelling for that concern. He says business is dull, as the gen. eral public does not appreciate good cigars"
 Mir. Picchi called at the Star office this morning with copy of the Times in his hand contain ing the article, and in very en- phatic terms denounced the pur- ported interview as false. He says he made no such statements to the Times reporter or anyone else.
 MT. Picchi states that while he has no complaint to make and no desire to say anything against Fort Smith, where he has many friends and customers whose pat ronage he appreciates, yet he does not like the apparent desire on the part of the Times to give Mena slap when the facts in the case are that he lost his for tune in Fort Smith thirty years ago, and later lost his health there. Ten years ago he came to Mena and has regained his health and is $6,O better off in 6nau- cial way today than he was when he left Fort Smith.

BUSCH'S SPLENDID GIFT

If Adolphus Busch had not seen the
horror and devastation Of the disaster at
San Francisco his contribution of 800, 900
to the relief fund would, we may be
sure have been no less For while
man of a sensitive and sympathetic tenn
permanent. upon which such picture of
ruin and death would make a lasting i'm
preston, tho sense of proportion which
belongs to him - d business man would
if he had been on the other side Of the
world, have told him that here was Il
colossal calamity and one calling for a
generosity passing any ever shown on a
like occasion. Not only in St. Louis, but
in many parts Of the world where his pri-
vate and public beneficences are known
il need not be said that he would have re-
sponded as he has because of what he
felt and not OF what he saw.
Yet the fact that the money so con
tributed is TO go TO the relief of a most
direful situation, ''aU of which he saw
and part Of which he was" must add
something TO Mr.. Busch's pleasure in
making this magnificent donation. Among
all Of those to whom the disbursement OF
this gift will bring pleasure. we may be
sure that that of the giver is greater than
is always a cheerful giver, such as are
beamed upon in the beatitudes. and it is
safe to say that none of the. committee

of the unfortunates who receive it, will
get as much joy out of il is he has i'm
