FINE RICE CROPS.
Rice Crops in the Brinkley
 Belt Make Great Yields.

Rice harvesting is now in progress in the Brinkley rice growing belt
 There was planted about 1000 acres Of this dainty of the celestial tooth" this year. within or miles from Brinkley to the East. The crop has been the most pronounced success not wthstanding the fact that this is only the 2nd year that it has been tried in this territory.
 The rice crop is now being cut and the yield of 40 to 100 bushels per acre shows very conclusively that there is big money in growing rice in the Brink ley rice belt.

Boysen altho' new man in rice agriculture is finding his experiments::a "a most prof itable one as there is ready sale for the rice. which is a high grade at Sl.O0 per bushel.

 sWer for Crime.

Sunday afternoon. Constable w. s. Chinaut arrested A. C. MurrelI at Holwell's store, about 8 miles from this city. on bench warrant from Sheriff, Chas. R. Pierce. of Poinsett Co.,, Mo.
 Murrell is charged with killing John Strocksel. by cutting his throat, near Charlottesville, Mo-, in Dec. 1905. Since that time Murrell has been at large.
 A reward of $5O.oo was offered fer the capture of the fugitive. Consta- ble Chinault was given tip to look out for him in this territory. and on Sunday morning, in company with a deputy, started out for the neighbor- hood where he was known to have ac. quaintances. At that place definite information of Murrell was learned and in few hours lie was found with some companions in front of the Hol- we'll store and was captured without resistance. He was unarmed. and as soon as placed under arrest he stated that he knew what he was wanted for.
 Constable Chinault arrived in this city Sunday night in time for the Cotton Belt train north, which was late, and at once took his prisoner to Charlottesville. Arriving there early Monday morning he turned his man over to the Sheriff and saw him placed behind the bars to await Cir cult court which meets in November.
 Constable Chinault took the next train for home. reaching here Mon day night over the Choctaw.

What they Are Saying.

August vas the biggest business the Brnkley Gro. Co. has had since 1t opened business" was the strange and encouraging good news spoken by Manager s. P. Park to the ARGUS man this week. Strange news be- cause August is generally the very dullest month of the year with the wholesale grocery people and conse- quenty with the retail people also. Mir. Park only complaint was at his inability to secure goods to fill the de mand upon him by his patrons. Said he: "Some. of cur patrons some times appear to expect more of us then they do of even the city whole. salers. Some of 'em seemed to wonder when we get out of an ar ticle. A few weeks ago was out of kraut and upon 'phoning to Memphis to get relief supply until ours should arrive there could not be found aS.sg of kraut ;n Memphis. So if is with other things which we run short on. Have in an immergency 40 case oys- ter order which has been 30 days since l placed it with Memphis firm and it hasn't reached us yet. So it is in every line; it is absolutely im- possible to get goods at certain times for love or money
 Mir. Park $ experience is the same as that of nearly every other business man. Even the printer man has his troubles and it is very great one too right new. If the patrons could just understand how hard we are try ing to get cut of the rush and crush they would be lenient in their de- mands.

Not less than the pulpits' duty, it is
the duty of the press to preach al
ways morality, truth and Justice; to
use its best efforts upon every possible
occasion to elevate its constituency
to teach right living and further the
ends of civilization to lend its ali to
the efforts of the pulpit for the sup
preston of sin and vice. And the
vast majority of the newspapers do
this. There are some, to be sure, that
do not. They eater to the lowest and
basest of human emotions, having in
view only the pennies that may be had
from paper sales or the dollars that
may be had from advertisers. They
care nothing if they scatter seeds of
moral decay and death, so long as
their books show profit.

American champagne is coming 10
the front. The falling off in impor-
tations Of champagne into the United
States, recently noted by the bureau of
statistics Of the department of COM

part at least, to the fact that more
than two million bottles of genuine
champagne wine are now annually
produced in the United States. The
importations of champagne in the cal
endar year 1906 fell 81, Al quarts be-
low the imports of 1905, while for the
