The MONEY Tt1AFNEVER RETURNS

The dollar that is sent out Of
town is forever gone, says the Cor
dele Post. This applies in Ameri
cus.-Americus Times Recorder.
And applies to most any city or
bown. The moment lost in the
morning is never overtaken during
the day and the dime or dollar
sent away to buy good in another
place when the same goods could
be bought at home, cannot be
replaced. The goods may come
to take it's place, but the enterprise
and thrift and public spirit rep
resented by the dollar is like day
that is dead-it will never come
back to us until we mend our ways +.

JAPANESE PRESS SILENT.
iean Papers-Wearing Uniforms in Hawaii.

Tokio, Feb. 6.-The press Is still silent anent the war cry in some American papers. Not the slightest excitement was apparent here at poon Tuesday after this talk was trans mitted here, and it was generally ig- nored. It is believed that the anti Japanese agitation by portion of the American press will afford proof Of the futility of an effort to shake the profound confidence which Japan reposes in President Roosevelt and in the American people generally.
 Honolulu, Feb. 5.--Six hundred Ja- panese immigrants arrived Monday on the steamer Siberia. Many wore the full uniform of the soldier of .Ja- pan and two captains in addition to

 'udge Shaver held a short session of chancery court this morning to hear the case of F M. Reeves and 0. A. Gay.
 It IS rather au unusual suit in- volving the title to a piece of residence property in the north part of the city owned by Mr. Gay.
 When MT. Gay left Mena some months ago he placed his proper. ty in the hands of MT. Reeves to sell. MT. Reeves made a deal selling the property to $. P. Latimer and notified Mir. Cay. who executed a deed to Mr. Reeves and sent it the National Bank ot Mena to be delivered up- on payment of the purchase price. During this time Mr. Reeves made deed from himself to MT. Latimer and MT. Latimer took possession of the property, but it seems there was delay of two or three weeks la getting up the papers in the transfer and before NIT. Reeves went to the bank to take up the deed Cashier Hancock had letter from MT. Gay saying that if the deed had not been taken up for the bank to hold it, as he had changed his plans and expected to return to Mena.
 After rendering the money aud demanding the deed, which was refused, MT. Reeves brought suit iu chancery court to compel MT. Gay to make the transfer.
 After hearing the case this morning Judge Shaver held that the deed Mir. Gay placed in the bank had remained there reason able time to give the plaintiff in the suit an opportunity to take it up, and that after the expiration of reasonable time if the money had dot been paid the defendant had right to recall the deed.
 The judge therefore entered his decree quieting the title in the defendant, Mir. Gay and can. ceiling the deed from Mir. Reeves to Mir. Latimer and gave Mir. Gay IS a mouth during the time the property was occupied by MT. Latimer.
