STATE GLEANINGS.

The town of Covington has
purchased q tract of land for
$4,000 for park purposes. Steps
will be taken at once To embellish,
improve and beautify the park.
The town of Gueydan is to have
a brick High School building that
will cost $l2,750. Work will
commence on the building at once
as the money is in the bank TO pay
for the construction.
Mr.. Thomas II. Harris. the new
Superintendent of Public Educa-
tion. will make a canvass of the
State in the near future. He has
the reputation of being an accom-
plished and eloquent speaker.
The recent heavy rains were
quite general in Louisiana. It
exceeded five inches al fifteen out
of twenty-one stations. Franklin
reported 1851 inches and Schrie-
yer 1905 inches.
A negro named Andrew Harris
was lynched last week in Caddo
parish, near Bethany, for an at
tempted assault upon a young
la1y named Miss Flora Tilley.
He was taken from an officer and
shot to death.
The Arcadia Argus editor fell
citates himself and the people
generally on the improved condi-
tion of that town by the removal
of the huge crop of weeds that
disgraced its thoroughfares. He
properly remarks that it is con-
ductive to health of the town.
Evidently the officers of the law
are endeavoring to enforce exist
ing laws. The provisions of the
Hunsicker law against concubi-
mage are being prosecuted parti-
cularly against men. Violations
of the Jim Crow Law, on the
street cars, have caused the arrest
of several white men.
The demand for cars on the
Kansas City: Southern road has
caused the employment of seventy
additional men at the shops in
Shreveport snd the force will be
further increased. Several months
ago these shops discharged about
200 men, as q matter Of retreuch-
ment.
Asa result of the recent heavy
rains. "egg fruit" ip Baton Rouge
advanced to the high water mark.
Eggs brought IS cents . dozen.
This was owing to the impossible
ity Of country dealers being able
to reach the market. The honss-
keepers entered . vigorous protest
to such sky rocket prices, when
eggs were plentiful.
Capt. James L. Long. the gov.
ernment agent to relieve the Red
river sufferers, reports 10000
people affected by the overflow.
About 5000 people were rendered
destitute. He distributed 600, 900
pounds of meal, over 100000
of bacon and $6,440 worth Of
seed, consisting of inillet, turnip.
potatoes, peas and cabbage.
Miss Marie Hunt, of Mansfield,
DeSoto parish. was recently ap-
pointed by the National Civic
Federation one of a party of
teachers to study the public
schools of Great Britain. She
has gone to Europe on her mis-
sioh. She will spend a short time
in Paris, Antwerp, The Hague,
Brussels, and other large cities
before going to London. She is
a notable example of what a young
woman can achieve. The Mans
field Journal aptly says of her:
sShe has won her way to promi-
nence in her adopted State by her
ambition and indomitable will,
coupled with superior intelligence,
. cultured mind and tact 10
make friends. /"

Some More Hog Talk.

There is a great deal being said now among the town people con- corning the proposed hog law, the passage of such an ordinance being practically conceded.
 The principal objection, and in fact the only one so for urged against the measure, is that ordi- nances designed to clear the streets and sidewalks of the wares of the merchants is being dis- regarded, and that such an ordinance would not be enforced for the reason that no man could be found in town who possesses enough moral courage to try to enforce it.
 None of these arguments are arguments at all unless one is willing to conceded that the people of the town are less cap able of self-government that the pesky swine that demoraiize the streets. The Tribune does not share in this opinion. The new council undou btedly can do some- thing toward the embetterment of conditions. If it hasn't get-up enough to pass and enforce a hog ordinance, The Tribune would suggest that we would be just as we'll off without council.
 If other ordinances are being disregarded the injured people should complain to the council and have the law obeyed. Distractions and nuisances now in violation will be removed for the asking. No one need expect these regulations to be observed to the letter without some one to call attention occasionally.
 The argument that the law will become dead letter and there will be no use to try to do any thing is child's play and should only encourage go-ahead folks to show them.

Market Quotations.

Eld. Fairchild will preach at the Baptist Church Sunday at Il o'clock.
 Elder Anthony has called in his appointment here for next Sunday.
 Loss Walker was down from Osage Saturday looking pleasant notwithstanding the recent loss of a limb. MT. Walker is one of the county's best citizens and his friends are glad ind eed to see him able to be about gain.
 NJ. E. Trantham has been "laid up" for several days and is now barely able to be out. This probably accounts for the fact that real estate matters are a little quite at present.
 S. G. Grigg sustained a fall one day last week while moving fodder in his barn loft which has put him decidly on the grunt.
 A cloudburst in the vicinity of Cisco and west from there toward Urbanette caused a great rush of waters on Tuesday afternoon. Several places water ran over the railroad track. Much damage is reported in the way of wash- ing out fences and tearing up roads, etc. Considerable hail is reported also to have accompa- nied the heavy water fall.
 Will! Coxsey, who recently went to Leslie to work in the store of Tanning & Birks, was home Sunday. He went back Monday. His friends do not expect Will to return from Leslie but once more soon.
 Master Erwin Foreman, who is visiting at the home of his grand father here, is reported sick.
 The night watch proposition has baked and no one seems to know why. The committee in whose hands the employment of a watchman was committed, have been unable to do business, or least have not acted. The people who have subscribed to the fund are willing to stand for the amounts subscribed and some of them for even more. We hope to see the committee get busy yet.
 Save money by buying the best and cheapest flour in town from Chas. Wells.
 A boy was born to MT. and Mrs. Arthur Norris, east of town, Tuesday night.

 Jerry Brammer went to Eureka Springs on business Thursday. Ice cream and cold drinks at Irby's.
 H. P. McCracken was down from Kingston Thursday to visit his daughter Mrs. G. W. Coxsey. His daughter Miss Blanch, who has been visiting for several weeks, returned home with him. MT. McCracken reports farmers in his locality behind with their work. He says the fruit crop is good.

Cooper in Oklahoma.

E. c. Cooper, who is now "doing" Oklahoma as a special fire insurance agent, took his pen in hand down at Wetumka the other day to let us know he had turned up at -four old town, '' Wetumka being the place where we sought our fortune couple of years ago.
 Cooper says he would like Oklahoma fine if he could only get accustomed to staying away from home.
 He says ho is living and learning right along. The other day he had meat market loss to adjust. The assured made up the following schedule of articles and valuations: sheet iron and lumber, S6O; aprons, S25; possum and coon skins, $5; 3 slickers, S10.50; jacket and pants, SC; 2 grips, S2; 1 umprella, Sl I win chester, S12.50; 75 lbs. black pep per, $14 50. Commenting upon the contents of this meat shop Cooper admonishes us in case of a loss of our printing office to be sure to include our wife's new spring bonnet and our best suit in the schedule of articles lest, as any adjuster we'll knows they proper ly belong to we'll equipped print shop.
 He says he also had rather interesting time in the negro town of Boley, where a white man dare not let the sun set up- on him. He was called to Boley to adjust some losses which an agent in a nearby town had covered, the loss coming before the general agency had time to get off. He got out of Boley with a payment of 50 cents on the dollar and was glad to get away.

 Caleb Galloway and Miss Goldie Reynolds quietly took their friends by surprise and got married on last Saturday. Capt. Hopper was up from Harrison again the past week figuring some in making an in- vestment on more farm lands about Green Forest. The town authorities would have to get quick action upon themselves on the hog question if cholera should happen to get among few hundred head that are now running loose on the streets. James Wilding is back from Southwestern Texas where he went last fall to spend some money. He thinks that coun try is just about what he wants and after a few weeks stay here he will go back there.
 John Marriott on Route 1 was in town and dropped in to see The Tribune Monday to tell us that he was mistaken when he thoughthe could afford to get along without the paper. He won't try it any more.
 Mrs. L. M. Bailey desires The Tribune to say for her that she is profoundly thankful for the many kindnesses shown the family, both by the w. O. w. camp members and the people of the town generally, during the last illness of her husband. She will never forget any of them.
 The Tribune is informed that the $100 reward offered for the arrest and conviction of the party who cut up the Cox tele- phone lineis withdrawn, sufficient evidence to present the matter to the next grand jury having been secured without necessitating an outlay of so much cash.

MAIN ST. GREEN FOREST | See c. c. Kirkham for fire insurance.
 A hog law might not clear the streets completely of hogs but il would certainly help.
 The home of w. l.. Sneed and his mother presents a very hand . some appearance since it has been rebuilt. It is now the most imposing home in the town. l Chas. Wells has opened a cold drink stand in connection with his grocery business.
 Mrs. D. c. Dormer is visiting in Rogers.
 Cold drinks at Wells grocery store.
 Chas Kirkham is at Denver looking after the affairs of his farm.
 R. A. Queen, residing two miles west of town, was the first man on the local market with strawberries, having brought two gallons in Tuesday. They were we'll matured and of excellent quality.
 Overseer J. E. Norris on the Brawley mountain road has struck a stump, that is he has run up against an empty treas- ury, and the work just well under way. He says he is doing lots of good with prospects good for building the desired road bed up the mountain, but it takes money to stimulate the working men. He has drawn out all the money paid into the Commercial club fund and there will be nothing more doing until further notice. Quite a little bit of cash promis- ed by the subscribers to the club fund for some reason, best known to the donors, perhaps, has not been paid in yet. It looks as though it was about time the matter was being stirred up little.
 Mrs. Rebecca Trantham of Neosho, Mo-, is visiting at the home of her sister, Mrs. Mary Jane Moore. She is the widow of Tom Moore, who was . before the war resident of this com- munity, residing on Dry creek on the farm now owned by William Looney.

 Bluford Cottrell, aged about 70 years, died at his home on Route 1, west of Denver, Monday after rather brief illness. MT. Cottrell was an ex.Confederate soldier, being beneficiary of the state pension law. He was member of the Masonic order. Interment was made at Denver Tuesday afternoon. Two daug- ters survive him.
 The funeral services of La Mont Bailey under the auspices of the Woodmen of the World on Tuesday afternoon of last week were very impressive. The ser vicies were largely attended. MT. Bailey had been a member ofthe order less than year, hen ce his beneficiary certificate calls for only $500 and hundred dol lar monument. Under the schedule thousand dollar cer- tifcate is good for only $500 if death occurs within one year, S75O in two years and 5000 after that. The local camp has membership of 45.
