Tar Springs, the fountain of
health and happiness, is beautiful.
The many improvements that it
has undergone this last spring has
made the resort like another place
in beauty, comfortableness and
healthfulness. The new double
entrance is built by three high
pillars of stone and adds much to
the magnifcence of the park.

THE TRIAL OF TON" JOHNSON

The most important trial of this term of
court is she indictments against Tom
johnson, colored, for atrocious assault on
Miss Nellie Higginbothan last June. The
trial began on Monday, with Senator AVIS
for the defendant and Prosecutor Rogers
for the State.
Miss Higginbothan said defendant was
the height and build of her assailant, and a
colored man, who fright
ened the man away, testified likewise. Mr..
Valentine, the keeper Of the toll gate, said
a few moments before he heard she screams
be saw negro run north, and moment
after the cries the same man ran through
the gate again, but went south; in going to
the spot where the attack took place, he
found Miss Higginbotham's pocketbook,
hat, hair trinkets and the butt of the car
riage whip. He turned the whip over to
Mayor Ladd
Henry White, a negro who lived at that
time in the second story OF she house oc-
cupied by Johnson; had worked with him
that day at Mantua, Johnson driving his
horse down. Shown the whip butt, White
said it was the same one stolen out of a
buggy by johnson at Mantua as they came
home; that johnson borrowed his knife TO
scratch label from it, and that the knife
had big nick in the blade, which showed
on the whip; that at ten minutes after s
O'Clock johnson was at home, bat went out
shortly after, and came home about 10
o'clock.
Later he went with johnson and wife
out in the town to learn more of the ire
port of murder" and that johnson was
in high state Of excitement The next
day witness said johnson remarked to hlm:
s'That if anybody brings you whip or a
pocketbook, don't You know anything
about it, A hat was produced and White
said: "That's Johnson's hat.
Mrs. White positively said that johnson
was not at home between and 10 o'clock.
9s. Clark bad made aa examination of
spots on the hat, and found four Of them TO
be blood spots He made the examination
June 26.
On the part of the defense there was a
general denial of the evidence brought out
The blood spots on the hat were explained
in that child of Johnson's was subject to
nasal .hemmorrhages. DR. Underwood told
of one instance before June that johnson
brought the little one to him and it had
been bleeding; that johnson carried towl
which was bloody. As to Whites testi-
mony, Johnson said it was not true; that
he did not leave his home that night until
after 10 O'Clock; that be did not steal
whip. The defense had two witnesses who
said Gussie Gibson bad testified falsely.

The average value Of annnities granted
rose from 1894 "a in 1906 to $472 Sc IN

Because many city teachers Of long service

annuities granted under the act Of 1907 are.
three-iifths Of salary minimum, $3.50;
maximum, $65ol, instead Of one-haH as

Report Of the Teachers Retirement
Fund Of the State Of New Jersey for
the fiscal year l9O7-.lg0S, presen-
ted to the Annual Convention for the
Election Of Trustees al The State
House, Trenton, noon, Saturday,
September 27, by Elizabeth A. Allen,
secretary Of the Board of Trustees


Last year, in the business world, was one
Of disaster For the Teachers Retirement
Fund il was the most prospe Gus year in
its history. Income jumped from 500,
600 90 in 1906 Z to 500 900 90 in 1907 s.
and dividends in the shape OF annnsies
paid Jumped from $35, 600 90 in 1906 Z to
$50, 900 90 in 1907s BEGINNING with
annuity payments of $S79 OF in 1898, the
Fund, to June so, 1908, had paid S203,-
6I6.43 TO 203 retired teachers, and had ac-
cumulated surplus of $95, 235 so. It is
an interesting fact that surplus has been
earned each and every year. OF this $685.
1850, S15, 735 SO is in cash and $79, 10000
is invested. Interest, last year, added $3, :
S42.S5 TO income. The State, recognizing
that it is the greatest beneficiary Of fund
which relieves its schools Of aged and Inya-
lided teachers, now pays the expenses Of
administration, 5000 per annum), so that
every cent contributed by the teachers is
used to pay annuities; not penny of such
feceip6s oeing useu of usaule iof any obnsr
purpose except to apply to surplns, which
we confidently expect will pass the hun
dred-thousand-doliar mark before the close
Of the current fiscal year, June 80, next.

4 WORD TO COUNTRY TEACHERS
The Retirement Fund is even more inn
portant to country teachers than to city
teachers. Because of his insecure tenure Of
position, the country teacher is less likely
Than the city teacher to fulfil the condi-
lions Of the District Thirty FIVE Years Half
Pay Pension Law, and the Retirement
Fund is his only protection.
We bespeak the hearty cooperation Of
boards of education and school officials.
What would you do. Gentlemen, il you did
not have the Retirement Fund to care..for
your aged teachers, and your teachers
broken down before aged? The old way Of
turning them out to cold charity was Meth
er pleasant, popular, nor humane The Re-
tirement Fund has provided "a better
way and entirely at the expense OF the
teachers. who, from their salaries, contrib
ute every cent Of the Fund. You will bene-
fit your schools and your teaehers, by let
ting it be known that you heartily approve
the principles and purposes of the Retire
ment Fund.

HIS WHEAT WENT q =
BUSHELS TO THE ACRE.
HE REALIZED $1e PER ACRE FROM
1T, WHILE OATS GAVE HIM
$17 AN ACRE.

Moose Jaw, Sask., Nov. 18th, 1907.
Writing from Moose Jaw, Saskatche-
wan, Mr.. s. K. Rathwall says:
81 have much pleasure in saying
that on my farm this year l had 500
acres in wheat, and 100 acres in oats.
My wheat averaged about % bushels
per acre, and had 200 acres cut be-
fore the frost, which l sold at IS
cents per bushel, thus realizing on
that wheat $500 per acre, not count
ing cost of Irvine, seed and labor. With
regard to the other 300 acres of wheat,
it got touched with frost but is worth
60 cents per bushel. 1t will net me
$500 per acre, but do not intend
to sell it at that price, as can make
more money by feeding it to hogs.
"My oats turned out about SO bushels
to the acre, and at 35 cents per bushel
will give me $500 to the acre, not
counting seed, Irvine and labor
"On account of the late spring,
percentage of the grain was touched
with frost, but on account of good
prices, farmers will realize a fair
profit on their farms even this year.
We are as usual up against short.
age of cars to get our grain removed"

Old Fogy Ways.

THE way my father did and MY
grandfather did, is good enough for
me; | don't take much stock in those
new tangled IDEAS" Hoy many in the
retail trade apparently take this view
of things? What percentage of bust
ness men are making progress by fol-
lowing in the footsteps of by-gone
generations? 1t is not a wise and
good idea to use tallow dips and pine
knots in an electric light age? What
would an intelligent man think of the
western farmer who would undertake
10 reap his wheat field with a sickle !?
But still many are in the same boat
when they try to do business as their
fathers and their grandfathers did.
There are certain principles that one
may follow; can be honest, give
square measure, be sociable, favor
friends, and all those little things, but
to do business in the old way means
failure unless one is located in a
backwoods place where there is no
competition. The up-to-date merchant
is the man who gets there, and it is 4
difficult matter to find the place to-
slay where advanced methods are not
necessary.

Arkansas newest agricultural product
in this state would be abnormally
large, in comparison with former

first time, and in others the acreage
heretofore planted will be doubled.
The counties in which the most ex-
tensive crops will be put out are: JET
ferson, Prairie, Lonoke, st. Francis

other counties, it is believed, will
make attempt at raising rice.

ONLY a Square Deal.

How much of the money which Is
sent away to the catalogue houses
ever returns to the community from
which it is sent? How much of the
money spent with the home merchants
goes to build up other places? Who
helps pay the taxes, build roads and
bridges, erect churches and school
houses, fosters and encourages public
improvements, buys farm produce,
carries names of the needy on the
debit side of the books the year
around, and is willing and eager at
all times to assist them by credit or
money, if they may need it? Is it the
catalogue house or the local mer-
chant? The local merchant? Then
why not give him the opportunity to
figure on that ''cash order" perhaps
you are about to buy He can fill it,
freight included, as cheaply, and In
some instances much less, than tho
catalogue fellows will charge. Stand
up for home trade. Dollars sent away
for goods never return, but help build
up the large cities and big catalogue
houses which are not only trying to
squeeze the life out of the country
towns, but are selling goods not one
cent cheaper than local dealers from
whom the people expect credit when
ever they need it.
