A Bad Wreck.

Rock Island passenger train No. 6, east-bound, which is known as the Hot springs-Memphis flyer, leaving Little Rock at 4:15, was wrecked at 5:l2 o'clock Friday afternoon at Cuneo, 3s miles east of Little Rock, and Engineer Kilcoyne and Fireman Currier, both of Argenta, were in- stantly killed. Eight other members of the train crew were more or less injured, Wendell Britt, the express messenger, of Little Rock, very seri- ously, and may die. No passengers were seriously hurt, though a few were slightly cut and scratched by broken glass.
 The engine, combination baggage and mail cara partitioned coach used Tor negroes and smoker, day coach, Pullman parlor car and dining car were derailed and the engine turned over
 1t was through the turning oyer of the engine that Engineer Kilcoyne and Fireman Currier were killed. All of the cars composing the train, ex- cept the rear Pullman, were almost buried in mud.
 When assistance arrived Curriers' body was found lying between the engine and tender, and was crushed almost to pulp. The body of the engineer was found under the wreck age between the engine and accommo- dation car, and could not be removed until the wrecker arrived and raised the heavy wreckage from his remains.
 The cause of the horrible catastro- phe is said to have been an open switch which had been opened and locked open after the other last train had passed, and the officials declare it to have been the malicious act of some train wrecker or wreckers, and that they believe they have the guilty ones spotted.
 The full detective force of the road is at work on the case, and if the parties can be apprehended and the act proven against them, they should be dealt with to the limit of the law If the work of wreckers, it was a most diabolical plot, and those who would do such thing are too danger ous to be at large and do not deserve to live.
 Hon. Ollie N. Killough, of Wynne, member of the lower house, and Sena- tor K. W. DeRositt, of this city, were among the numerous passen- gers on the train, but aside from a severe shake up and shock to their nerves, they escaped injury.

FOR STOMACH SUFFERERS.
Don't Use Any Remedy That Keeps

la: chemically pure bismuth subgal-
late, to allay any inflammation Of the
stomach and bowels, cerium oxilate,
to strengthen the stomach nerves: So
dunn bi-carbonate, TO neutralize the
poisonous acids that are present in
stomach troubles; and nux vomica,
which restores vigor to the digestive
organs and tones up the whole nerv-
GUS system.
This combination of valuable RENE
dies is found only In Mi-o-na stomach
tablets, md It so rarely fails to
strengthen the digestive system, a n d
cure even the worst form of stomach
trouble, that Red Cross Pharmacy sell

One for the Creamery.

Five years ago in little town oveI in
the San Luis valley the merchants paid
the ranchmen's wives twenty and TWEEN
tyfive cents pound in trade for the
butter they had to sell and resold it to
customers at the same price for cash.
Now the milk all goes to the local
creamery which sells the butter to the
merchants at thirty three cents in cash
and they retail it at thirty five cents and
are making more money than under the
old system because they never have any
spoiled butter to cause loss. The ranch
men and their wives are making twice
the money they did under the old sys
TEN and with vastly less work. The
creamery has built up a big demand for
its product at fancy prices and the dairy
men are increasing their herds. Them
stitution pays out thousands of dollars
in cash every month for milk and its
patrons ask no credit for groceries at
the local stores. s.-FIeld and Farm
