Old Pastor Visits Here.

Rev F. E. Biglow, formerly a we'll
known East Chicago divine, is visiting
at the home of W. F. Diamond for a
few days. Mr.. Biglow was the pastor
of the East Chicago Congregational
church for the five years between 1898
and 1898, leaving here in that year to
assume duties in Kentucky. He is
now pastor of the First Congregational
church, one of the largest religious
edifices in Newport, Ky. Mr.. Biglow
has been attending the sessions of the
Winona Bible conference for the past
ten days and decided to Wilt amid the
scenes of his earlier labors for a few
days. He will occupy the pulpit of the
local church on Sunday morning, and
the reunion with many of his former
parishioners will be one of unusual
pleasure. He will report to his New
port church on Monday.

INDIANA HARBOR.
Pretty Surprise Party.

One of the pretty social events of the
year was observed at the South Bay
hotel Wednesday evening when about
eighty couples surprised Mrs. Alex
Barker and her sister, Mrs. Benjamin
Barker, by a farewell party Messrs.
Barker, who at present are managing
the South Bay hotel, will leave in
about a month for New York and Cali
fornia with their wives, and the func-
ton was rendered by the members of
the Jewish Ladies' Aid society. A
large attendance of members from East
Chicago, Hammond and Whiting
swelled the attendance to almost the
two hundred mark. The guests began
arriving at o'clock and left on the
1890 car for East Chicago and Ham
mond, a special car being arranged for
by the c., L. S. & S. B. line
The evening was spent in dancing
and card playing, after which luncheon
was served in the spacious hotel dim
ing room. The luncheon was in four
courses and was accompanied by many
expressions of regret concerning the
departure of Messrs. Barker and their
families.
Among the out-of-town guests were
Mr.. Gould of Indianapolis, Mrs. II.
Specter of st. Louis, Mrs. Frank and
daughter, Ray of Chicago, Miss Blank
of Chicago, and Mesdames Bosworth
and Dunlap of New York City.
The future ownership of the hotel
has not yet been decided although 1t
is said that the Barker brothers are
negotiating for its transfer to promi-
nent Chicago hotel keeper.

That our American forests abound in
plants which possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores of the most eminent medical
writers and teachers. Even the UNTIL
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness Of many native plants before the
advent of the white race. This informa-
ton, impaired freely to the whites, led
the latter to continue investigations until
to-day we have rich assortment of most
valuable American medicinal roots.

CALIFORNIA COMMISSION CO. NOTES FROM THE SEATTLE
The General Market.

Local produce is occupying position
of growing Importance on the Seattle
market, the volume increasing as each
week goes by. The first important pro-
duce was Strawberries, and these have
now come and gone, or at least are rap
idly becoming an unimportant factor.
Raspberries from Sumner and other
points have taken the place of straw
berries, and now a few apples and
peaches are commencing to arrive from
east of the mountains, While these are
of early variety small in quantity and
poor in quality. they nevertheless her
aid the coming of better fruits which
will reach the market in the course of a
few weeks and from now on consumers
will be supplied with a large variety of
peaches, apples, apricots, melons, etc.
New potatoes are also coming in from
the local field but these are green and of
poor quality, and dealers say they are
almost worthless. Tt does not pay to
dig potatoes too early. 1t is better to
wait until they have attained size and
quality, for they will then bring a price
that will make shipment worth while.
Old potatoes have almost disappeared
The poultry market is little weaker
as the result of Eastern shipments
which have arrived during the last day
or two. The veal market is firm, for, al
though hot weather has shut down on
the demand, it has had an even greater
effect on the volume of shipments,
which have decreased to a very notice
able degree. The same is true of dressed
hogs The butter market is firm and
the egg market is in considerably better
condition, as local production is falling
off and the Eastern supply is of poor
quality and does not attract consum-

An Industrial Directory of State.

Commissioner of Agriculture Guy B. Tucker is now preparing to issue an industrial directory of Arkansas. The directory will be the first of its kind in the history of the state.
 Assisted by his deputy. Major Will liam Stoddard, Mr Tucker intends to ascertain the name of every in- dustry within the borders of the state and all the particulars of each indus try. All mines and manufacturing industries will be given in the direc. tory, together with the number of men employed in each industry and the pay roll of each. Letters are being circulated over the state by Mr Tucker in an attempt to secure the proper information. As soon as the information is all in the directory will be compiled.
 It is thought that the directory will be made up of about 75 pages. When completed t will be distributed free of cost by the state
 It is thought that the state can be better advertised by the means of this directory than by any other plan. Few people outside the state know the commercial wealth of Arkansas, and the directory sent out broadcast over the United States will aid great ly in informing the people of the coun- try of the industrial inducements of the state

Sons Death May Kill Her.

H. C. Collins. A years old. resident of Van Buren, dropped dead from his chair at the breakfast table Friday morning just after eating a hearty meal. He was apparently in good health just prior to his death. Col. lins was unmarried and made his home with his aged mother. A month ago she was stricken with paralysis. and was just beginning to recover slowly. The shock caused by the death of her son caused her to have a second at tack, and she is now in critical con. dition. and her death is expected at any hour.
