The EYEBROWS

Notwithstanding their inconspIcuous-

License Fight In Baxter.

Cotter, Aug. 27,-Baxter coun-
ty is having the hottest local op-
ton fight in its history The
county has been nominalIy "dry"
for six years, but during that
time has been overrun with boot
leggers, and tigers are plentiful.
In Cotter alone at the present
time are five joints in full blast.
The jointists have been repeatedly
arrested, but little has ever come
of it, except to temporarily en-
barrass the liquor sellers. The
bootlegger is harder to round up,
and cases are rare where one is
arrested. The temperance peo-
pie have grown weary of the state
of affairs and have recently been
making an active campaign
against illicit wbiskey dealers.
Four years ago the county went
"dry" by 127 votes, and two
years ago by only sixty seven
votes, showing a falling off of
sixty votes. This year it is con-
fidentially expected by the "wets"
that they will carry tho county by
a small majority, and to over
come this probable result, the
temperance element is putting
forth every possible effort and
argument.

LIGHTNING SHOCK
Renders Salem Citizen Deaf And Dumb
One Man Fatally Injured.

Camp, Aug. "a. Thunder and
lightning have played havoc in
this vicinity within the last twen-
ty-four hours. Rain-storms, ac-
companied by vivid flashes Of
lightning and loud peals of thun-
der, frightened the superstitious
negroes almost out of their wits.
The postoffice was struck by
lightning and Forest Mans, a
farmer, was fatally injured.
Many others who had sought
shelter in the building were Sc
verely shocked, among them
being Dr.. O. T. Randall and Hon.
Stephen Brown Of Salem.
Mr.. Brown was rendered deaf
and dumb by the shock, and it
is feared he may lose his hearing
entirely.
The lightning struck the stove'
pipe jutling out from the side OF
the building, passing down
through the stove and tearing
large hole in the floor.
