Business Continues 10 Grow.

New York, June 26.-R. c. Dun X Go. S Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will say:
 Improvement has become more pronounced in distribution of seasonable merchandise. and with the reduction of detailstocks there Is a broadening of interest in jobbing and wholesale ship. ment of the fall and winter lines. Weather conditions have again favored both trade and agricul- ture, rapid development of the crops being potent for good in commercial departments. In few exceptional cases the week has brought no change in the at titude of indisposition to operate until the results on the farms are assured, but at most leading cities the sentiment is distinctly one of confidence, and mercantile collections are much more prompt. Little machinery is idle in the leading industries, except where repairs or inventories in terfere.

The plan,i in the language of the committee is like this:
 The State Fair Association agreeto pay all expenses of the most popular lady from each of the seven Congressional Dis tricts in Arkansas to and from the State Fair and duriug the Fair. This means railway trans pOrtation both ways from any point in Arkansas where the el. ected lady lives, her hotel bill at a tirst-claSs hostlery during the entire ten days of the Fair, to furnish her carriage to and from the grounds and to generally en- tertain her with receptions, fetes, etc, during the fair.
 Each of these seven ladies will in turn reign one day during the fair as the Hostess and Queen of the State Fair. During the other days she will prominently par ticipate in all the functions, as one of the honored court ladies in the retinue of the reigning queen.
 The Women $ Federated Clubs of Arkansas are with the Fair Association in this great popu- larity contest. The Federation has standing State Fair Com mittee who are even now sending out letters to every club in the state urging them to see that suitable ladies are brought into the voting contests in each dis trict so that we are sure to have State Fair Queens of whom we may all be truly proud.

Want 10 Come 10 Arkansas.

Little Rock, June %. -Agricul- tural Commissioner Guy B. Tucker received a letter yester- day from Orlan Clyde Cullen of St. Paul, Minn., who represents a large colony of Russian Cauca- sians who want to purchase 5000 acres of land in Arkansas. The colonists desire well watered prairie land, suitable for general farming and stock raising, and are prepared to pay cash for it..
 In his letter to Commissioner Tucker Mr. Cullen says that if the commissioner cannot recom- mend the tract desired he will come to Arkansas, and with his assistance will visit the prairies and select one, defraying all eX penses of the trip and that of the commissioner.
 The colonists are from the Rus sian Caucasus, and are honest, sober and industrious, and are physically one of the best races in Europe, and would make de sirable citizens. They will bring with them from Europe some of their horses and Angora goats and sheep. Mir. Cullen says the families he will bring to Arkan- sas would be a credit to any com munity. Commissioner Tucker proposes to do all in his power to assist the Caucasians in secur- ing a suitable location in Arkan SaS.

Having a year yet to serve, we OF
the Michigan Cavalry brigade were
sent to the Indian country after the
grand review In Washington. Just
where we picked up little Dick no one
seemed to know.
We had lot Of hangers-on when we
left for the march across the plains.
and strict orders were issued to weed
them out and leave them behind. Dick
was one of them, but we had fixed
things. Three days later he Joined us
under cover Of night, mounted on a
government mule, and from thence on
be was one of us. In his idle hours at
the fort he had learned to blow bugle
and give most Of the calls, but there
was no place for him. 1t was In the
Indian heyday. Almost every tribe In
the west was hostile and out on the
warpath, and when once we had left
the frontier behind us all the talk was
of the red man and his way of fighting

be no such thing as fear with the old
veterans OF the Army of the Potomac,
but we often wondered how our boy
would take it. He was no boaster. He
never said whether he would run or
fight, but he fought.
One day the Sixth was ordered out
to follow broad trail and hang to 1t
until we had come up with the war
party and punished it. At certain
point we divided into three columns.
Half an hour later the first column
walked into an ambush with its eyes
wide open. We were greenhorns at
Indian fighting Half dozen men
had fallen when the colonel looked
around for his bugler. The lad had
been one of the first to fall The other
columns must come to our relief or
we should be wiped out. We could
neither advance nor retreat, and the
hidden redskins offered us no target.
1t was then that little Dick dropped
the carbine he had taken from a dead
troopers hands, and, running forward,
he seized the bugle from the grip Of
the dying lad and shouted:
GAN right colonel; know what you
want"
We other columns had heard the
sound of the firing, but had made no
move. 1t was only when they heard
the notes Of the bugle telling that we
were in sore straits that they came
galloping down and helped us win a
victory.
don't know how they fixed It, but
from that day ON little Dick was Cne
Of the regular buglers. 1t took him
away from us much of his time, but
when he had half an hour to spare
be was back "home" with us. It was
IN the early summer when we headed
out on the plnins. For months we
fought the red man whenever and

MAGAZINE NOTES.
Hysteria Strangulated Emotion--The
Nerves Cured by Psychology.


In an interesting article in the October
McClure's, advocating the use of ex-
perimental psychology to take the place
of the horrors of the third degree in
criminal cases, Prof Mnnsterberg closes
with II statement Of the value of this
new acienee' to physicians. Hysteria,
whichis one form or another is nova
days common among men as well as
women, he declares to be the result
Of strangulated semotion." The worm
that gnaws Is frequently buried deep in
the sub-conscious mind, but if it can be
brought into the clear daylight Of the
conscious mind the exposure is likely to
wither and destroy Il. A number Of
cases are given Of physical disabilities
originating from purely mental states
for instance that of woman who al
ways lost her voice at night. Investi-
CATION revealed the fact that years be-
fore at sunset the patient had watched
beside a sick father, in an agony Of in
tensity, which many people have ok
perienced, lest a sound should disturb
him. When she was taken mentally
over that old scene and the grasp OF
her subconscious mind loosened from it.
she had no further difficulty with her
voice. Prof. Munsterberg concludes
fIhe psychologist who seeks to discover
the secret connection of ideas may, BY
his association method, not only protect
the innocent and unmask the guilty
but bring health and strength to the
nervous wreck"
