Take Day on and DO This Problem.
Ray Stannard Baker in the Ameri-
can Magazine for January, describes
the Theosophical Brotherhood run at
Point Iona, CAL, by Mrs. Katherine
Tingley, who, like Mary Baker G. Ed
dy, Of the Christian Scientists. is the
supreme head of the extraordinary
group she leads.
Here is Mrs. Bakers account Of
the problem they give children to
solve at Point Iona:
$50 many things are surprising
about this school A class of chill
dren from four to six years old was
called by the principal-the little
girls all in blue frocks exactly alike,
the little boys all in sandals Most Of
the faces in this class, as in others,
we're plainly American, but there
were also Cubans, Germans, Swedes,
Bohemians, and an East Indian-all
studying together. Some OF them
were the children OF rich parents
very rich parents-others were or
phans or waits. but all received ex-
actly the same training and treat
ment The principal drilled the class
before as in mental arithmetic. The
children averaged perhaps, five years
old, but the problems they solved
were something like this:
"six times 8. one half, one-third,
times plus 3, one-hfth. times 10
plus 10 plus 10 plus 10 plus so plus
"A square root equals what?
Every eye was fixed on the teach
er and che answer came promptly ey-
cry time. first from one child, then
from another. l suppose the answers
were correct couldn't have solved
the problems myself

T. F.. WILSON

Green Forest, Ark, March f, or. To WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
 It affords me much pleasure to state that the insurance carried by me on my business buildings which were recently destroyed by fire, has been promptly and satisfactorily ad- justed. I had two policies of insurance at the tme of the fire, both in companies represent ed by E. c. Cooper, the Citizens Fire Insur- ance Company of Clarksville, Ark, and the National Mutual Fire Insurance Company of Omaha, Nebraska. l am highly pleased with the prompt and satisfactory manner in which Mr. Cooper has looked after my interests since the fire and with the honorable adjust ment made by the companies.
 have never thought much of the necessity of carrying insurance but I can see clearly now that a man is making great mistake by not carrying insurance on his property, es- pecialy when it can be secured in such com- panies as the Citizens of Arkansas or the Ma tional Mutual of Omaha, Nebraska.

TRAVELLING BY
 STACECOACH
The Rate to California in Piu- nccr Days was High but
 thc People Didn't Kick

Atchison to California in thirty five days; fare only S200 ill gold"
 This was the heading of an old handbill, yellow with age, which traveller laid upon the counter in railway ticket office the other day. It was an adver- tisement, notes the Kansas City Star, of a line of stage coaches that ran from Atchison Kansas to San Francisco during the gold excitement of years ago.
 People seldom stop to think what their poor ancestors had to put up with fifty years ago." the man ;said. He was comparing the old time table with a modern railway time table, which told of the luxuries one could have by travelling on that road. No dust, no jarring and all other disa. greeable features eliminated.
 The old time table was a double sheet of paper, torn and yellow with age. It was issued by the Atchison and California stage coach line in 1857. The inducemen ts it held forth were in strange contrast with those of the modern railroad advertise ment. The stage coach line ad- vertised thatit had recently re. furnished the entire "road" with absolutely new wagonettes, and it told what kind of coaches they Were, how the springs were made and of what strength they were. It even said that the coaches were painted in the "best man. ner possible" The horses that drew the coaches were described, too, as the best.
 An inducement that was held out on the time table to prospec- tive passengers was ystop-over privilege.
 Passengers who had paid their entire fare from Atchison or other points to their destina- .tion," the paper said, "may reg ister with our agents. A stop over privilege is then given for any place on the road.''
 The time of the stop-over was

the common Wild Goose plums, which is an excellent price. It is figured out that it would be an easy matter for the producer of one acre of plums to net a round hundred dollars.
 MT. Reeves estimates that the output of the pant will exceed $50, ,OOO this year. Peaches are being engaged all along the M. & N. A. road, an orchard of six thousand Elberta trees having been bought at Marshall. The Elberta yield in the vicinity of Green Forest will be good. Much of the local crop will no doubt find the cannery profitable market. The cannery will buy all varieties of seedlings, which crop is somewhat above the average this year.
 Green Forest has every reason to be proud of her canning fac- tory. It is one of the largest and best equipped plants in this part of the state and for a genuine hustler for business, J. B. Reeves, the manager, has no equal that has yet been discov- Tered. MT.

A Strong Case.

E. c. Cooper, general agent of the Fidelity Mutual Life In- surance Company of Philadel- phia, received last Friday a draft for S1000.00 in settle ment of insurance on the life of John T. Wilson. This is certainly an unusual case and the prompt settle ment of the claim speaks vol umes for the Fidelity Mutual. On Saturday. May 27, MT. Wilson applied to w. M. Smith, a local agent of the company, for policy Of 5000. Wilson was examined by a physician, found to be a good risk and the application went forward to the company. On Wednesday morning, June 8, just ten days from date of ap- plication, Mir. Wilson was thrown from a mule and killed. inc policy mad not yet been issued by the company. MT. Smith had given MT. Wilson a binding receipt when the ap- plication was written putting the insurance in force from that date. Two weeks ago Messrs. Cooper and Smith forwarded the company proof of death and Friday they re- ceived the check in full pay ment of the claim. Less than sixty days elapsed between the date of application and the payment of the insurance Green Forest Tribune, July 30, 1904.

 was an empty seat in the stage coach.
 "We make quicker time tc California than any other stage coach line and at cheaper rate," the pamphlet states. IL went on to say that for S200 q person could ride all the way from Atchison, kansas, to the gold fields of California.
 "The distance is 1918 miles" was stated on the time table ; "the longest distance ever at- tempted by stage coach line. Atchison to California in thirty five days"
 A boast was made that there was twelve telegraph stations on the road to California and that eating places had been estab- lished along the road where good meals could be had at the nominal price of S3. Every pas- senger was allowed twenty five pounds of baggage. All over that amount must be paid for at the rate fifty cents pound. Itwas advertised that the risk on the return trip was very great on account of the amount of gold dust and nuggets being brought back from California. The company employed only the bravest men, fully armed all the time. But it declined to carry gold dust unless paid for at the rate of S3 a pound. The com pany refused to be held respon- sible for the loss of the gold dust by robbers, Indians or other means.
 The pamphlet also advertises a fast freight line between Atchi- son and Denver, Colorado. The round trip was made in the short space of twenty days. To ship by this method all merchandise had to be wrapped in waterproof packages. A package weighing ten ponnds could be sent by that route for S5. All over that weight was sent at the reduced rate of S2 for five pounds.
 In it's advertisement for passen- gers to California the pamphlet, as stated before, allowed every passenger twenty-five pounds of baggage. However, it advis- ed, that as many persons wished to take more baggage than the weight limit, it would be safer to send it to California by sea.
 "And to think that we can get on a train tonight and be in Den. yer tomorrow" the railroad man said as he compared the time tables.

 PROSPECTS
 FOR CANNERY,

Present indications are that this season will be an excellent one for the Green Forest Canning Go. Prospects for an abundant tomato yield are the best ever had at this time of the year, while the outlook is equally flat. tering on such fruits as can te handled by the factory. The tomato acreage is large, being es- timated at two hundred and fifty acres, and the prices quoted for canned goods by the wholesale dealers is better than has before been offered for futures this early in the season.
 It seems that both fruit and to- mato crops are very light if not total failures in nearly all sections of the country, where they are grown with profit, ex- cept in this part of the Ozark re- zion, where an all around hit has been made.
 In view of these conditions the people of this section are certain. ly to be congratulated. It looks now as if the plant can be kept continually in operation until cold weather, which will mean that many train loads of it's prod ucts will be shipped out to for eign markets and the money it will bring in will offset that which is being sent out for Kan sas flour for a long time to come.
 Manager Reeves tells us that the output of the plant up to the present time this season falls but little short of s5,ooo, the items handled,so far consisting only of strawberfes, plums, blackber- / ries and HewAhuckleberries.

 BOARD OF CONTROL.-There was meeting of the board of control yes terday devoted mainly to routine mat tcrs. though there was same discus sion of tine projects of building the. new bridge across the Gila at Florence and the building of new penitentiary at Florence The board arrived tenta- tivelv at conclusion to visit Florence and the proposed site of the prison in December and have everything ready to begin construction early in Janu- ary. Tine appropriation providing for the building of the prison Is made available in two parts one part for each of two years. The board did not feel that it would be economical to be- gin the work with only part of the money and then have to suspend op
 eratlons until the rest of it was avail able. It has therefore permitted the present year to slip away SO that the entire appropriation may be available at once, next year. IL is believed the prison may be constructed almost as quickly t.-ct wa. and better results can be secured for the same money.
