"A few months after they were mar

had deliberately led me into a trap with
the intention of running me and prof

which bought his place in the firm was

my turn of the wheel of fate.
When a year ago the dear heart
that INV firct ond only loya v-a G

in motion. I made a connection with
a house in New York city which Boil

 The party in Tennessee is badly di- y:ded. and here in Arkansas one-man Iule has made farcical all attempts at harmony Foraker, in spite of num- erous efforts to patch up a semblance of peace, is still bellicose and, with bis Ethiopian following, will knife the nominees at every opportunity. As to the negroes themselves, they still hold the Brownsville affair and it's conse- quences against Roosevelt and there fore against Taft. They will not vote for the nominee, but they will vote for somebody and that person will be Bryan.
 Minnesota, under the sui1ing hand of Johnson, will very probably go over to the Bryan column. and New York, contrary to the usual order, is still in doubt-with the strong pos sibility of declaring for Bryan and Kern.

64th Birthday.

Saturday was the S4th birthday
of Mrs. Lucinda Greeves who has
lived on the same farm Southeast
OF this city for the past 81 years
She has seen many changes in life's
journey and is one of the pleasant,
kind, courteous women whom God
has left long on earth to help make
it better and she has many friends
as is shown by the fact that sixty
five of her neighbors planned and
carried out a surprise on the S4th
anniversary of her birth. To say
that there was plenty to eat is
putting it mildly. and all spent the
day very pleasantly and wish Mrs.
Greeves many more happy birth
days. Those present were:

daughter, Cecil Greeves, wife and

FIRST BAPTIST
Where

Was Theodore Roosevelt's fore
sight and hind sight, when he start
ed in to build the Panama Canal
He simply boasted to early. A
news item from Paris says:
The difficulties of this task are
much greater than all theoretical
provisions. We see the proof OF
this in the cost of the work. All
American commissions estimated
the cost of the present project at
$140,0OO.OO0. but up to date $780,
100000 has been expended, not in
Guiding the $40.OO0.00 paid the
French company and the $l0,O00,-
0O paid to the Republic Of Pana-
ma.
1T is hoped the work will be fin
ished in January. 1915. the cost be-
ing $50.000OO0 year. That rep
resents for these six years $780,
100000. or a total of $280,000.000.
That is to say. just double the esti-
mate"
Now here is where Teddy's fore
sights and hind sights were both
bad. De Lesseps and the French
started in to build that canal and
failed because of graft and because
they could not overcome what they
termed creased clay" at the River
Chagres. They would make a cut
at the foot Of a hill only in twenty
four hours to find the hill was slip
ping and filling the cut made, and
they could not stop it,
Now il is up to Teddy,

ais, the chief engineer of the work,

Missouri Mules.

Here is sample of what has and
is being done by one Monroe City
mule buyer. 1t all came out by
Joseph Kindig, of Kindig Bros,
York Penn, being here a few days
last week.
For II years j. Gent Fuqua
bought and sold thousands of mules
on his own hook and then came an
offer from kindie brothers to buy
weaving mules for them for the
Pennsylvania market, and as it
looked good to Mr.. Fuqua he closed
in on the offer and for the past 8
years has bought weaning mules
for them.
Now that means this: Each year
he shipped them from S to 10 car
loads of the little musical beauties
and as it takes 40 of them to load
a car, that means from 200 to 400
head of them a year. One season
it run as high as 500 head.
