place of meeting. For days the girl paced the streets of New York in search of the two brothers whom she was destined never to see nor hear Of again during her entire life.
 She finally gave up the search in despair and, having no friends to whom she could go, decided to appeal to the Catholic church, of which she was member. It was then that she met Bishop Byrne. who was prepar- ing to move to Little Rock.
 She decided to become a Catholic teacher and shortly afterward left in company with Bishop Byrne, for this city, which, at that time. was a small village. The entire trip, as far as Napoleon, Ark. was made overland in stage coach. From Napoleon to Little Rock the journey was made in a small canoe.
 short time later Bishop Byrne was established as the first bishop of the Catholic church in this diocese. which was then composed of Arkansas, Tex. as and Indian Territory Mrs. Far min was made one of the instructors in the Catholic school, then located on the corner of Second and Center streets. She was one of the first Cath ollie teachers in this territory.
 Mrs Farmin remained in Little Rock the rest of her life h 1850 she was married to Arlow Farmin. The latter was also closely associated with the early history of Little Rock. He served as deputy state auditor for a period of twenty-one years He died in May, 1887.
 During her residence in this city Mrs. Farmin made many attempts to locate her two brothers whom she had lost in New York. Her efforts were of no avail. however. as she never heard of either one. One of the two brothers, Mark McIyer. was a physi- elan, while the other had prepared himself to be an attorney. On the same day that President Abraham Lin coin was assassinated a man was shot in the Palmer House. in Chicago. A prominent physician by the pame of Dr Mark Mc!ver was called to attend the mans injuries and Mrs. Farmin always entertained the belief that he was her brother. She made several at tempts 10 ascertain whether or not her belief was correct, but for some reason she was never able 10 gain any information on this point.
 Mrs. Farmin died on her 77th birth day anniversary. Her death was the result of heart trouble and old age and was not unexpected

4: Guest of Sheriff

! Monday morning Frank Lang, for
merly janitor at the: city hall, but now
employed in like capacity by Mann
t& Son, was arrested at the instance of
his wife, charged with assault and
battery. He was taken before Judge
Henry. His honor, after hearing the
evidence, decided that twenty days as
the guest of Sheriff Belford would pro-
.bably do Frank some good, and give
hing time to ponder over his past mis-
deeds, and he was incarcerated accord
Eingly, .- - ,..
EsSIt seems that Sunday evening Lang's
little stepdaughter, agen seven, was
out visiting neighbor when the sup
per hour arrived. This made the man
mad, and when the child arrived at
home she was sent supperless to bed.
Mrs. Lang, taking pity on the little
girl1 slipped her doughnut. When
Lam found this out, he: grew exceed
fngly wroth, it is said, and proceeded
to make things interesting for his wife.
1t is alleged that he struck her several
times, and eliminated the evening
performance by shying a hot lamp
,, chimney at her head. ; AS result
Mrs. Lang appeared in court wearing
"a poultice around her neck. It seems
that the wife and daughtar after this

house and: sought refuge at the dolni.

opponents down to a tie the final
score being 10 to 10. Considering the
weather and the fact that the boys
drove forty miles in automobiles to
reach thei, destination. the result
shows that they did fine work. They:
held the, stronger team for downs CON

No Fences in BELGIUM.

In beautiful Belgium there are no
fences. Neither are there hedges, as
in England. The boundaries of the
fields are raised up by fairly high
earth banks. and the roads are cut
out of them, as it were, so that when
you are walking in the country you
are down in sort of valley, with low
green banks on either side of you
The things that are chiefly cultivat-
ed in Belgium are the beet root, for
making the cheaper kind of sugar,
you know, and you can see field upon
field of their reddy-green leaves
stretching on either side of you as
you walk along.
Flax is also much grown over there,
and in summer time the fields are
such pretty sight when the pale blue
fax blossoms are out in full bloom
Belgian asparagus is also renowned
all over Europe. 1t has white instead
of purple-green tips, like our home
grown asparagus.
