From the Texarkanian
 Captain James T. ROsborough of this city brought in 110 bales of cotton today from his planta- tion on Red River, 12 miles northwest of town. It all graded up well and sold to local buyers at an average of II cents per pound, with the exception of two bales which did not class well. The farmers have already gathered about 90 per cent of their cotton crop, in this locality. For the past eight weeks there has been a general disposition to hold for higher prices, but during the past ten days there seems to have come a change in sentiment and the farmers are now bring ing their cotton and selling it at a pretty lively rate. It is estima- ted that at least 90 per cent of the amount ginned up to date has already been marketed.
 RumOrS continue to float about the city to the effect that big gas or oil gusher is about to be brought in on the J. D. Cook property on College Hill.

 A home negro, who had de cided to get married, asked his employer, who had business at the court house, to procure him the license, but forgot to tell him the name of the bride tC. be. The employer thought the mat ter over, and finally decided on the girl he thought Sam had been acting sweet on. When he got home and handed Sam the license, he remarked about not being told who was to be the bride, and that he had inserted the name of Lucinda. Lawd, massa," exclaimed Sam,' It ain't Lucindia, it's Kyarline, What'd dat license cost?" When told that it cost S2.50, and it would cost the same amount to have it changed, Sam thought the matter over few moments ana then remarked: Well, massa, 1 done asked Kyarline, an she said Vas, but dere ain't no two dollars and fifty cents differ ence in dem two, so I'll jus take Lucindy."

leuends of Goblin Hounds.

Conan Doyle's Hound of the Basker- villes," 'fearsome animal" Is said to have its origin in the legends of packs of spectral hounds which are popular in various parts of England and Wales. In the north of England these apparitions are known as Ca briefs hounds;" in Devon, the "Wisk, v Vest" or Heath hounds;" in Wales, "Cron Annwn," or Own Wybir." and in Cornwall the Devils Dandy dogs. " They are supposed to be evil spirits hunting the souls of the dead. Gen eraliy they are only heard and seem to be passing swiftly along fn the air. as they usually choose cloudy nights for the pursuit of their prey. Their yelping is said to be terrific, resem- bling the note of bloodhound. All of which tends to show that the origin of these legends of goblin-hounds Is to be found in the terrifying noises made by 1ocks of wild geese:

Suicides of Aged People.

The record of age for suicides seemed to be established recently in Copenhagen. Denmark. A wealthy lady of 91, living in Copenhagen, cen- mitted suicide as the result of am un- successful love affair She fell in love with a young man, and in fit of dss- pair, because her affections were not returned, siie sprang from the fourth floor window one morning and was Killed. She was widow and was the mother of high government official. This record did not stand long, how ever. A few days later 1t was learned that Josef Szazkas, aged 106, had hanged himself at Szatonar, on the Hungarian frontier, because he, feared, that God had forgotten him. and that he was condemned to remain, on the earth for aI eternity.

Welcome Address.

Dr. W. NJ. Anderson, in a brief address, welcomed the Conven- tion to Nashville on behalf of the churches. He said that Nashville was hOnored to have such a grand organization here. Dr. Anderson said:
 Madam President ard Ladies of the Convention-In the name of the pastors and churches, | give you hearty welcome to the city of Nashville. We are honor ed today to have within our midst this convention representing the. largest organization in the world composed exclusively of women4 We recognize in you one of the. strongest agencies for temper ance and social reform. We re- alize that your organization is, a mighty piece of machinery, thoroughly adjusted and set to, the accomplishment of great pur> poses. We congratulate you on your thirty years of marvellous, history. We believe that you have been a powerful element in pno- curing the victories which have. been gradually won for the canse of temperance.
 We know that your purposes i are broader, deeper and more. far-reaching than the mere opera ting of your machinery, because, your six main lines of work, or ganization, prevention, education al, eyangelistic, social and legal. branching out into thirty eight departments, bring you in touch with the whole arena of human fife
 Your National motto, For God and Home and Native Land," is a glorious one, and you seem to be honestly trying to live up to it. Your badge is beautifully sim pie: the white, emblematic of the purity of your purpose, and the ribbon, typical of the bonds that ind you together.
 May the utterance of the sainted Miss Willard, in your National Convention in this city twenty years ago, prove a proph. ecy of your present meeting, when she said: There is spirit in Nashville today that makes of every breath a sacred inspira- tion." And Miss Willard was uttering the hope of the Gospel when she said, The world is full } of life, of light, of loveliness, and when no longer drugged and dis. } torted into delirium, will be one world of men and women side by

Col. c. c. Hamby was hostess to a distinguished party of states men at a quail dinner in Little Rock this week. The colonel took up 15 of the birds with him from here and invited Judge Trieber, of the Federal Court, Judge Hill, of the Supreme Court, and Senator Clarke, of the U. $. Senate to help eat them. The quail were served in the dining hall of Mike Forster's and when they were brought to the table Judge Trieber threw up his hands in surprise, and exclaimed: What slaughter"
 Col. Hamby did the honors on the occasion handsomely, and suggested that if any of the gentlemen desired to whet their appetites before tackling the birds, the waiter would serve them. Judge Trieber ordered a Steinberger, Col. Hamby made it two, Judge Hill asked for cof- fee, and Senator Clarke-well, he's read much of Kentucky. It was jolly party aud that night supper didn't taste a bit good to any of them.

Nothing Helped Her-Cuticura
Cures Her in Five Days.

AFTER nay granddaughter of about
seven years had been cured of the
measles, she was attacked about
fortnight later by furious itching and
painful eruption all over her body,
especially the upper part of it, forming
watery and bleeding sores, especially
under the arms, of considerable size.
She suffered a great deal and for three
weeks we nursed her every night,
using all the remedies we could think
of. Nothing would help. We tried the
Cuticura Remedies and after twenty
four hours we noted considerable i'm
provement, and after using only one
complete set of the Cuticura Remedies,
in five consecutive days the little one,
much to our joy, had been entirely
cured, and has been well for a long
time. Mrs. F. Ruefenacht, R. F. D. No.

Old PEOPLES VILLAGE.

There is little village at the foot
of the Litchtield mountains not far
from Waterbury, Conn.,, in which
scarcely child is to be seen. Prac-
tically all the residents are old peo-
pie who have been born and brought
up in the little village and have never
been further away than Waterbury, a
distance of Is miles. The Inhabitants
of this quaint semi-abandoned town
number less than rs. Once upon a
time it was much larger and pros
porous community, but, like many
New England towns, it has been left
to take care of itself, while the farm
ers moved to the nearby cities to en-
ter business instead of devoting their
energies to tilling the soil. The av-
aerage age of the residents now living
there is in the neighborhood of the
four-score mark.

BET HAD LONG BEEN OFF,
Experience Of Two Cronies Who
Stopped Using Tobacco.

T. L. Heath, Of Norway, Me-, known
in the Spanish war days as Tim"
tells this story of his wager with a lit
erary man of the village. They had
agreed to leave off smoking. The
proposition was an agreement that a
$40 note should be forfeited by the
first one to smoke. This happened on
Saturday. Monday morning things
went badly in the Heath Office, and
disagreements cropped out at home
Saturday afternoon there came 1ull
in business so Tim" dropped around
to the neighbours and sought him out
in the library. From his pocket he
drew handful of Havanas, calmly
lighted one, and as the smoke sifted
through the sunlight he drew a crisp
note from his pocketbook.
"Here you go. I'm satisfied" was
all he said as he passed the ten to
the literary man.

A correspondent relates the follow

himself near North Berwick on the
last day of the old year: when driv-
ing home in my sleigh I stopped to
speak to some friends, when robin
came and perched on the whip shaft,
which my coachman was holding in a
slanting position not more than a foot
or two from my face.
robin sat looking earnestly at me
with his beady black eyes with the
most perfect confidence for nearly
halt a minute, and did not mind the
talking or the holding out of my, alas,
empty hand. All birds, and especially
the robin, are very fearless in this
weather. but I never met befbre with
such complete fearlessness Of man.

BLOOD GETS SOUR.
Every Family Should Make Up This
Home Mixture and Take Now.

At this time of year, says a we'll
known authority, the Kidneys become
weak, clogged and inactive, failing to
filter out the poisons and acids, which
sour the blood, causing not only facial
and bodily eruptions, but the worst
forms Of Rheumatism, Nervous and
Stomach troubles, Backache and pain
full, annoying Urinary Affections.
1t is worth anyone's time now to
get from some good prescription phar~
macy the following ingredients: Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Mix by shaking we'll in a bot
tie and take in teaspoonful doses. after
your meals and at bedtime.
This simple homemade mixture will
force the Kidneys to normal, healthy
action, so they will filter and strain all
uric acid and poisonous waste matter
from the blood, and expel this in the
urine, at the same time restoring the
full blood eount"-that Is, IS per cent.
red blood corpuscles-which' is abso.
lutely indispensable to perfect health.
