Boys Corn Clubs.

Al A)OoOS OOilAIlllooS, WILL bOoON of State Superintendent, Geo. B. Cook; Commissioner of Agricul- ture, Guy B. Tucker; Professor Nelson of the Agricultural De- partment of the State University and MT. J. A. Evans, State Agent of the United States De- partment of Agriculture, has been organized for the purpose of inaugurating Boys Corn Clubs and Corn Growing Con- tests throughout the state.
 Within the next few days a circular, setting forth the plan and general rules, will be sent to the County Examiners and teachers for distribution in every school district in the state.
 Under the plan each County Examiner is, ex officio, chairman of the respective County Com mittees, which will have charge of the County Prize Contests in the fall. Any boy between the ages of ten and twenty can enter the contest by simply giving his name to any school teacher or the County Examiner.
 There are no fees and no re- strictions. He can cultivate any area from one fourth acre up, but must actually do the work himself and keep a record of the same on a blank furnished by the United States Department of Agriculture.
 Prizes will be awarded in the County Contests for the largest yield per acre and for the best corn. The winners of the coun- ty prizes will contest for the state prizes.
 All the boys entering these contests will be enrolled as Co., op orators in the U. s. Depart ment and will receive many val uable suggestions and lessons. They will, also, be visited blythe field agents of the U. s. Depart ment on their rounds.
 This plan has accomplished most gratifying results in many states where it has been under taken and resulted in much good, not only for the boys, but for the entire community.
 Circulars of full information and instruction will be sent to all who may request them of either the State Superintendent or the Commissioner of Agriculture at Little Rock. All public spirited citizens are urged to participate in this work and co-operate with the state committee, the county committees, the Farmers Unions and the teachers in organizing in each county, arousing local in- terest and encouraging boys to enter the contest.

EUREKA SPRINGS IN '91
An Interesting Old Paper Reviewed by The Tribune

An Interesting Old Paper
 Reviewed by The Tribune
 There is nothing about which greater interest accumulates on the account of age than a news paper. The feeling of concern is simply intense when one picks up paper published, ten, fifteen or twenty years ago and reads about people and things they knew so we'll in the by-gones.
 Mrs. E. S. Foreman handed The Tribune editor the other day a sheet out of a copy of the Centenery of 1891, which con- tained page write up of Eureka Springs, displaying several faces familiar to us during our boy hood.
 The Centenery editors interest in the resort seems to have been actuacted by the fact that he had previously been there and exper- fenced great benefit to his health. In the opening of his article he records the fact that the Perry House, where he was entertained when lie was there before, had been destroyed by fire as well as many other busi- ness houses.
 The paper boasts of Eureka 8 great enterprise in the building of street railway as well as the establishment of the Summer Normal, which it predicted would accomplish great things in an educational way. Com menting upon the enterprise the paper said:
 We regard it one of the most felici- tous moments of our life that here is the mountains of Arkansas, at Eureka Springs, we witnessed the happy and brilliant inauguration of an enterprise, every feature and every inspiration of which is in such thorough accord with the basic principles of the Centenery- "A closer union of the states, closer union of the Churches, a closer union of the nations."
 The first eountenance portray ed by Zinc etching was that of Gen. Powell Clayton upon whom the editor lavished much of the eloquence of his pen, not only in praise of his work in connec- tion with the building of the re- sort, but as a successful politi- clan, soldier and citizen.
 Next in the same column is shown the likeness of pr. c. F. Ellis, who dispite a heavy growth of beard, presented equally as youthful appearance as he does to day with whiskers stubbed. In it's mention of Dr. Ellis the Centenery says he came to Eureka Springs to stay, and there seems to be a good deal of truth in the assertion. The pr. is liable to be a long time there yet, if he don't get old faster than he has during the past twenty years.
 Next comes Dr. R. G. Floyd, whose portrait shows him with a full. sweep of whiskers, disguis- ing his features of to-day com- pletely. It seems that in "Uhat day and time" doctors thought whiskers added to the dignity of their appearance and especially young doctor considered it essential to put on an appear ance of age. At any rate, whis- ker production seems now to be a lost art in the medical profess sion, compared with what it used to be.
 In the collec ction of pictures, however, the face of M. R. Ba- ker, a lawyer who then lived at the Springs but of whom we have known nothing for good many years, had them all a little more than twice discounted. He had a regular populist profusion of the silken variety that distin- pulShed him in anpaaranoa ac

Baseball Gone Mad
In South Florida.

Pensacola has had its own share of
the baseball craze and is loath TO give
place to any other city in the earnest
ness of its fans and rooters. 1t ad-
mires the loyalty of enthusiasts to the
city's team and applauds with them
its worthy achievements. They are
certainly interested enough and ener-
getic enough in the display of their
enthusiasm, but they cannot hold a
candle to the basebalIists of Orange
county.
There is deep jealousy between the
two cities of that county, Orlando and
Sanford. as to the honesty Of the
umpires more or less connected with
their respective teams and in a re-
cent series of games for a ''repew-
tered" silver cup animosity ran so
high that one OF the umpires was laid
low.
These final games were scheduled
to be played in Orlando, and the fol-
lowing kilograms passed between the

the great Importance Of a bridge
across the river, and when the i'm
pOrtance Of a thing is SO apparent 1t
is the duty of the county officials who
have and control our county affairs
to meet with the board of county
commissioners of Escambia county
and discuss and to carefully consider
the constructions Of this bridge. The
commissioners Of EScambla county
are ready and have been waiting for
the past few years for the PROPOSE
ton, and if the commissioners OF
Santa oRsa county will meet with
them and discuss the matter, much
good will come of it, and their efforts
along this line viii soon bear fruit.
We all know that any public i'm
provements help everybody. There is
no section of Santa Rosa county that
has been so neglected by the county
commissioners in the matter or good
roads and bridges as the southwest
ern portion of commissioners district
No. 3.
There is nothing that can be of
more direct benefit to the producers
OF this entire section than a steel
bridge across the Escambia river,
which could be built within limit OF
cost that could be borne without
very great burden on elLneF santa
Rosa or Escambia counties.
We have five commissioners in our
county, two of whom are in favor OF
the bridge and three oppose it. That
is just the way the matter stands.
All persons familiar with this sec
ton of country know that this bridge
is a necessity ard would be a sub
stantiaI Improvement of great i'm
portance, eminently practical and
would build up the country and en-
nance the value of property.
We realize the fact that the sue
cess, the upbuilding and the develop
ment of our county depend in a
large measure on the way in which
our county commissioners perform
their duty.
With their duty well performed and
with the help of all good citizens who
are interested and who have the well
fare, the upbuiIding and development
Of our county and the best interest
of the people at heart, will accom-
plish much good which will be Of di
rect and lasting good to US and to
posterity-
Would like to have the views and
opinions Of others on the bridge prop
osition.

BRIDGE ACROSS THE
ESCAMBIA BADLY NEEDED

North Chumuckla, Aug. 5.
Editor Pensacola Journal:
Much has been said and written in
the past few years about good roads
and the construction of a steel bridge
over the Escambia river, at some cen
trail and convenient point, easily &C
cessible to the residents of both
Santa Rosa and Escambia counties,
but nothing has been accomplished
for this section Of our county as yet
This bridge is a necessity, not only
to the citizens in the immediate and
adjoining sections Of Santa Rosa and
Escambia counties, but of genuine
utility to this entire section, and in
addition to all this, the building OF the
bridge would commend the progress
i've spirit of our people which will
invite intelligent citizenship.
1t is about forty miles by land from
the steel bridge over the river at
Pollard, Ala, to the base line, and
about 120 miles by water. In this
great distance there is not a bridge
and only three ferries that you can
cross the river on, and again you
have to be there at certain hours,
otherwise you cannot cross. You have
but to think for a moment to realize

Brave, Free, Faithful"
The Very Men We Need.

Tommyrot poured into ones ear t0C
continuously becomes noissome anr
is apt to injure the tympanum. The
proposition for a state board of trade
which The Journal made was a sim
pie, honest thing without any strings
attached-a true endeavor to aid
Florida, because Florida requires or
ganized effort TO gain the place it de-
serves in the Union.
Toward the attainment of such an
organization the press should work
shoulder to shoulder, If for no higher
purpose than that the newspapers
will be the beneficiary, as we'll as
others, of work which will improve
every interest throughout the length
and breadth Of the peninsula.
This paper and that has wise re-
marks to make upon the defunct ere
alton of three years ago. One will
advise prudence about the method to
be adopted in resuscitating a board
Of trade, presumably fearing that the
same old dead ones" will get con-
troll. Another will advise time, care,
Judgment 1--WE are rather inclined to
believe that the Times Union may be
placed in that category when the
only thing really necessary is-to get
to work, like men, and form the board
Of trade.
The Miami Metropolis somewhat
begs the question when il refuses to
be crushed" like Brother Edgar, of
the Jacksonville paper, after we
showed up the formers falsity in
criticizing The Journal as a ''napper,"
yet the following shows an under
standing of the question:
The Pensacola Journal makes the
point that the state needs live board
OF trade and not a dead one The
Orlando Reporter makes the
point that if the effort at organizing
state board of trade died for lack
of life that such body never existed.
There you have it. We are dead
sure that the state board of trade
is dead. Now it is time to begin the
movement to organize the kind of
body that will meet the approval of
thing the matter with the other move
ment at the beginning. 1t may have
been an effort to get turpentine la
bOrers cheaper under the guise of as
sisting immigration. or something of
the kind, or to hammer down the
price Of convict hire.
AT any rate, the newspapers, which
are expected always to help every
thing, didn't warm up to it much,
though the big stick extorted a para
graph or two of patriotic tommyrot.
If we are to have a state board of
trade let II be manned by men who
are brave and free and faithful, and
there is a broad and fertile field for
it to work.
The Metropolis sounds the proper
chord. The men who should now be
members of a state board of trade
should be brave. free and faithful
they are the only kind of men who
will do anything for Florida; for they
will work for her and not for them
selves.
