IS GOOD FOR THE PEN
Monroe Scott of Denver Has
 Come to Sudden Grief

Monroe Scott, son of Dr. Charles Scott until recently a citizen of Denver, has at last come to grief and there is no doubt that he will soon be doing time in the Arkansas penitenti- ary.
 Young Scott has cut a rather wide swath in the criminal busi- ness of the vicinity of Denver for some time, having made two or three brave attempts at horse stealing. He got away with one horse and buggy for his father and came very nearly getting away with another.
 His latest effort and the one which has placed him in the tolls was the theft of a buggy and team from a Springdale livery barn, the facts being reported in last weeks Springdale News as follows:
 On Wednesday, the 3rd inst, young man giving his name as Monroe Scott went to the Stone Livery Barn at this place and hired team for two days, as he said, to make a trip to Spring Valley. When he failed to return at the end of that time Messrs. Stokes &: Hewitt, proprietors of the barn, began an inquiry and it was found that the party had passed through Spring Valley, going on east. Realizing that Scott intended to get away with the team if possible, Sheriff J. G. Berry of Madison county was notified and he and Jas. Jenkins of this place started in pursuit. They trailed h1m through War Eagle, Clifty, and on Kings River, two miles south of Rock House, he got his wife. From there the two made their way to Denver, travelling all night, reaching that place the morning after Scott left Springdale, the dis tance being some 115 miles. The two went on up into Missouri, and at Mountain Grove Scott traded the buggy and harness and one horse and sent his wife on to Cabool on tle train. Scott was arrested at the latter place by the constable, who had been notified to be on the lookout for him, and Messrs Berry and Jenkins arrived with their prisoner Sunday morning.
 Scott frankly confessed that he in- tended to get away with the team, and on Monday he waived examination and was bound over by Judge Berry to await the action of the grand jury. Failing to give the required bond of S1 ,000 he was placed in jail at Fayette- vile.
 It developed that Scott had been around this locality for two or three weeks before he secured the team. We understand his home is at Olvey, in Boone county. He is only twenty -one years of age. The wife claimed to know nothing about the team having been stolen until the day of her hus- bands arrest, but the officers think otherwise.
 Both horses and buggy and harness have been recovered and l. N. Hinson went after same first of the week.

o. D. Harbert Writes of Old
 I imes.

o. D. Harbert of Sulphur, Okla, brother of Capt. L. E. Harbert of Green Forest and an old timer of this country, writes a communication to the Eureka Springs Flashlight in which among other things, he says:
 I grew up 12 miles north of Eureka Springs, on Hickman Prairie, and once knew every hog path from Leather wood to the mouth of Kings River. I was there during war times and took part in those stirring times, when it Well do remember the dead line. All south of Owl Creek went South, and all north went North, the settlements be- ing evenly divided. We of the north eide were led by Asa G. Smith, James Lee, Joe Moles, Phillip Clark, Anderson Phillips, Dr. John A. Lee and other "small fry" whilst those of the south side were commanded by James Meadows, Alex Meadows, Billy Ward, Billy Smith Greasy Bill, we called him), Calvin Sellers, pr. Harbert and Callip Baker.
 Now, where are all those gene rals?
 Asa G. Smith, after being commis- stoned colonel Che having recruited a regiment. died before his men were mustered in.
 Joe Moles was captured and taken to Price's headquarters. He broke guard and died trying to make his way back to his command.
 Anderson Phillips was killed near Galena. Mo-, before peace was declar- ed.
 James Lee died 20 years ago, at Cad- dc, I. T.
 Phillip Clark died 10 years ago at his home on Hickman Prairie.
 As to Dr. John A. Lee, I can't say, but believe he died at Springfield, Mo.
 Well, where are the South side lead- CTS?
 Billy Smith died in Texas 22 years ago.
 James Meadors has been dead about 30 years. Calvin Sellers answered the last roll call 20 years ago.
 Callip Baker, am told, is also dead.
 Dr. Harbert died at Green Forest 10 years ago. Billie Ward is also dead and is buried near Green Forest. I believe I am the only man living from the north side ot Owl Creek, who went through the war from 1861 to 1865. If there is one still living from either side I would like to hear from him,

PARENTS who have the welfare of their youngsters at heart will keep them off the streets after nightfall. Boys. especially, should be at home after eight o'clock. Of late the dereliction of parents in this regard is be- coming quite noticeable. No good can come of letting your boys roam at will over the streets, whether by day or night, especially at night when all temptations of the powers that prey are abroad to send your boy on the road that knows no re- tracing. We do not concur in the belief of some people, that all boys are naturally bad; but we do know, from personal ex- perience and observation, that all boys are of an inquisitive and inquiring turn of mind, and the evils of this world-the evils which are made the most allur- ing-have peculiar and ever . lasting impression on the binds of those most impressionable creatures-boys of the "grow- ing" age. Parents, if you ad- mire manly qualities, if you want your boy to grow up a credit to his country and his town, keep him at home after night-where the influences which make good citizenship abound. Juvenile court records show that the boys who "turn bad" generally receive their education from the faculty of the streets and alleys. Don't let your boys receive this elemental education.

It is popular mistake that only wealthy people who eat rich and highly-spiced foods suffer from dys- pepsia, or, as it is also known, indi- gestion The laborer in the street, the worker in the field also finds him. self victim of this disorder. Among the very greatest sufferers from 1t are women.
 Dyspepsia is indicated by constant feeling of laziness, by loss of appetite and troubled sleep by sour stomach and dis tress after eating, by bad complexion and lusterless eyes.
 There is no surer and speedier cure for this trouble than Dr. CaldwePs Syrup Pepsin, which dyspeptics have been using successfully for twenty years. This great herb laxative compound cured Capt. Clark of Buffalo, Ia., of dyspepsia and sour stomach that he had had for forty years, Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It cured Joel Adams of Montgomery, Ala, after suffering continuously for sixteen months. These are only a few of the many. But 1t is not expensive to be cured with this grand remedy as 1t can be bought at any drug store in a 50-cent or $1 bottle.
 Your very neighbors are probably life- long users of Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin, but if you want to know without expense what it will do for you personally, send glad to send you a free trial bottle. He is actually anxious to have you make test of his remedy.
 Thousands of families everywhere keep gency as constipation, sour stomach, in- digestion, biliousness. dyspepsia, heart burn, torpid liver, etc., which may come on a member of the family any day. It is pleasant to the taste. acts gently and does not gripe. It is the great childrens laxative tonic.
