Coxsey & Co.'S. Store Robbed

A rather smooth piece of theft was committed in Green Forest last Saturday night.
 Some one whose tastes are little bit hard to analyze entered Coxsey & Co.'S. store by the rse of key that manipulated the front door lock and stole thirteen pieces of silk, ranging from few yards to whole bolts; also four pairs of the best grades of mems shoes in their stock and several suits of underwear. What other booty that may have went along will perhaps never be known. The accuracy with which the silk and shoes are accounted for is due to the fact that the coverings of the silk and the empty shoe boxes were found in L. H. Seitz barn Sunday morning..
 When MT. Seitz went out to feed he discovered these things in his barn and suspecting that a robbery had probably been com- mitted, he turned in the alarm and the source of the goods was promptly located. A small lan- tern, one of rather toy pattern, was also found in the barn. It had evidently been used in hunt ing out the desired goods and later to furnish light for packing them up.
 There has been no clew so for to the perpetrators and it seems that one person is about as cap- able as another to figure out a conclusion as to the object of the robbers in taking the class of goods selected. The value of the goods stolen amounts to not less than a hundred dollars and possibly a great deal more.

Work of Rogers Cannery.


 The following paragraphs con. corning the Rogers Canning Co.'S. work and crop and market con ditions are taken from the Rogers Democrat of last week. We in vite the special attention of local growers to the item about bean production as an item for the canning factory. Bean growing around Green Forest would un- doubtedly be profitable.
 From the column of miscel. laneous notes on the canning business at Rogers, The Tribune clips the following from the Democrat of that city:
 In Washington and Oregon, prices on canned goods are so low that a number of the factories will not run this year at all. The price of fruit is low but not low enough to enable the canners to work at a profit.
 The recent rains were just what the tomato crop was needing and the prospects are splendid for a big yield and a corresponding long run by the Rogers Canning Co. It is expected that they will be ready for the factory in a short while. Peaches will be a short run this year-not more than ten days-but the tomato crop ought to last some time.
 The Rogers Canning Company has canned about one and half cars of string beans. The crop was cut short more than one- half by the extreme dry weather. The growers seem to have been pleas- ed with the experiment of grow ing beans and say that had the weather conditions been favor able they would have made money from the crop. One great hindrance this year was lateness of the crop. Under ordinary conditions, the beans ought to have reached maturity in June and have been out of the way before the first of July. The late frosts forced replanting in many instances, while the wet late spring kept the others from at- tempting to plant. At present most of the growers seem willing to try it again next year when it is to be hoped circumstances will favor thorough test.
 Some of the growers are com- blaming because the canning factory here says it cannot pay over 40 cents for peaches this year. At Van Buren, the factory got all it wanted at 25 cents and down along the Kansas City Southern where they have such big orchards, hundreds of acres of peaches were left to rot on the trees. The combination of an unusual big crop, a sore lot of commission men, and country that has a long way to go before it gets over last winters panic, has been too much for the grower and peach prices have had the bottom knocked out. Van Buren practically quit shipping the first of this week. Buyers are scarce this year and most places have had to ship their peaches on consignment.

Come with plenty of good tools and full dinner pails. A good turn out is expected. The call is signed by Dr.. Scott, Ben Robert son and H. w. Myres.
 r A. A. Coffey, the popular Western district Deputy Sheriff, was in Green Forest on official business Tuesday. Coffey's friends have him groomed to suc- ceed his chief at the end of his second term. Coffey is a clean upright citizen and is making a good officer. He is just the character of man Carroll county needs in office. MT. Coffsy greatly endeared himself to the better element of the people of Carroll county when he served on the county election board four years ago along with A. J. Cox and Tom Barnett. They gave the county set of judges that held an election even above sus- picion of fraud. When Coffey comes out for sheriff, the other fellow if there is one, will have a race matched and no mistake.

Why tho Will Cost More.

Five years ago certain man made
will. Last week he made another
one. The same lawyer drew up both
documents. For writing the second
will the lawyer charged twice as much
as for writing the first one.
"Why this differencew asked the eli
ent 'Have you attained such promi-
nence in the legal profession in the
last five years that you are justified
in doubling your fees?"
mot at ALL" said the lawyer. "There
was twice as much work on this will
as on your old one. You see, at that
time you were married man and
your will was short, for with the ex-
ception of few minor bequests ev-
erything was left to your wife.
Changes in your domestic relations
have made another will necessary.
You are now bachelor or bachelors
equivalent. childless widower. 1t is
much harder to write will fora man
of that type than for married man.
The man with family usually gives
away everything he possesses in three
or four clauses, but the bachelor di-
vides his property among SO many
relatives, friends and dependents and
consumes SO much time in doing it
that the lawyer is justified in charging
him double the usual fee."-New York

Proper Treatment For Burns,

In case of burns death may be due.
first, to asphyxia; second, to shock,
and, third, to septicaemia.
The medical man seldom gets to the
case in time to treat the first condi-
tion, the second is essentially a gen
eral condition, while the whole success
in preventing the third depends upon
the immediate local treatment. 1t is
therefore the last condition which must
it is generally accepted idea that the
thing to do in the case Of burn is to
dust flour over it or to cover it with
oil, and, indeed, even in some compar-
atively late text books on surgery u
mixture known as "Carron oil'' is ad-
vocated.
The use of such applications cannot
be too strongly deprecated, and, indeed
If the lay mind could be taught that
the best thing to put on burn before
the doctor is called is hot compress,
which should contain some boracic
acid if there is any in the house, it is
probable that the majority Of deaths
due to septicaemia after burns would
be prevented.
For the whole aim and object of the
local treatment is to prevent sepsis.
Flour and olive oil may be soothing
and may allay the pain, but there is
no antiseptic property in them; rather
they are excellent culture media for
bacteria.-London Hospital.

Luttrell, coming down the steps Of
the elevated station, saw ahead Of him
girl with cherries in her hat.
The cherries and the dark blue rib
bon were really about all that he could
see of her, for he looked down on the
top of her head, but as she turned the
corner going down he caught a glimpse
Of wavy brown hair and of trim
white collar that came up to meet it.
When he reached the door Of exit he
found the girl with the cherries there.
Seen thus at close range she proved to
be about as high as Luttrell's heart.
Her gown was of dark blue like the
ribbons Of her hat, and she carried q
book in her hand.
She was gazing anxiously into the
street. It was raining hard, and the
street lamps, lighted early, cast glis-
tening reflections across the wet pave
ment.

umbrella. AS Luttrell passed her she

Thu Waiter Exnlains:;

He was one of the very few CONNER

selves to their surroundings, and as a
chronic hotel grumbler he is known
from east to west. The waiter was pos
sessed Of an optimism unusual for one
weighted with the responsibilities Of
his position and served the SOUP fish
and roast with equanimity and poise.
At the dessert the travelling man wax
ed irritable and sarcastic.
"Look here" he said. 'This pudding
is on the bill of fare as ice cream

there any cream in it,

tience replied:

vided his days into mornings for work,
afternoons for fishing and rambling
through the woods and gay little chats
with Miss Penelope and her father

about for years as if she had actually
lived them. Returning from school ten

and not one Of the country swains had

She had tended her flower garden, d.
rected the management of her fathers

the quaint heroine of his book.

the flower garden and the hammock
under the trees. ut always sounds

IN LITTLE
SPRINGS CANYON
By Addison Howard Gibson.
Copyrighted, 1907, by M. NJ. Cunningham

AS the pony picked it's way up the
wild, rock bordered canyon Ivy Norris
took in great breaths Of the ozone of
the Arizona foothills.
"This is living!" she cried, throwing
out her arms. 1.-THE folks back home
would not know me. These three
months spent in this wonderful ell
mate have made me strong and young
again. And this weather! Back in
New Hampshire they are having snow.
while out here it is golden sunshine all
day long. My heart is full Of the day
Thanksgiving! When I write back
home that I spent my Thanksgiving
out in the foothills all alone the folks
won't believe me. They'll simply say
I'm learning western ways fast-to
manufacture some big ones to boom
the country"
The last of August Ivy Norris, pale,
thin and thirty, had arrived from the
east to teach the Lone Mesa school.
The cowboys on Mr.. Towers ranch.
where she boarded and lodged, treated
the coming of the cultivated little wo-
man as a great joke. Her short skirts,
the boots and the handsome little re-
volver and cartridge belt furnished
them material for comment for weeks
Even Warde Hughes, the foreman, was
amused at her first attempts to mount
and ride Pilot, the gentlest pony on the
ranch, but he equally enjoyed the pluck
with which she persisted in learning
to ride and the use of the little revolver
that looked so comically dangerous in
her small white hand.
On this Thanksgiving morning the
handsome foreman had reined in his
COW pony behind thicket Of mesquite
trees and was watching faithful old
Pilot carefully bear his fair rider up
the trail of Little Springs canyon. All
at once he became aware of the fact
that a few months had wrought a
great transformation in the school
teacher of Lone Mesa. The thin form
had rounded out into graceful. curves,
the pale face had become plump and
rosy, and her awkwardness in the sad
die had given place to an easy manner
that could no longer be ascribed to q
novice.
"She's like girl of twenty" he So
liloquized. "By Jove, she's the neat
