ing it to tear out the defective work and finish the courthouse. But the contractors step in here and attempt to make the courts say for them: You shall not touch that building until you pay us every cent we say you are due us." And the court decides that the furnish ed courthouse belongs to the coun- ty and the county has the right to complete 1t.
 Now, if throughout this long fgh. between the people of 1nde- pendence county and this firm of for eign contractors, the Batesvllle Guard had steadily ibattled on the side of the contractors and against their county, what would the peo- pie think of the attitude of their home paper? Yet the hypothetical case we have stated does not differ except in magnitude from the case of the people of Arkansas against Caldwell & Drake.

GYMNASTlC MAINE HEN.

Zenas Dudley of Hampden has a hen that will lay every day provid- ing she can lay where she wants to, and that is sitting on top of pole. The only reason why this hen wishes to perch on the tip end of pole when laying can be accounted for only by the fact that she laid her first egg on top of pole. When she was a small bullet she was frightened one day and flew to the top of tall pole in the yard. The dog kept her there for some time, and during the time she laid her first egg Never a time since then has she laid an egg except when she has been on the top of some pole. A pole has been set up in the hen yard where this hen oan make her daily layings. A small net bag is placed around the pole to catch the eggs.-Kennebec Journal.

NOVEL KIND OF PIANO.

The dulcitone of Thomas Machell of Glasgow has the keyboard of a piano, but the key hammers produce sound by striking steel forks-like shankless tuning forks-instead of wires. A semi-circular steel spring carries the vibrations from each fork to the sounding board. The tone is softer than that of the piano, but it has a great clearness and carrying power, and is adapted for solo play ing as well as for accompanying other instruments of the voice. Im- portant advantages are the lack of necessity of tuning and the port ability. A dulcitone of five octaycs weighs but 45 pounds, but a piano of the same range has a weight of 250 pounds or more.

construction of the building. The commissioners advertise for bids, and among the bidders are firm of foreign contractors and an Inde- pendence county contractor. The foreign firms bid is higher than that of the home man, but the con- tract is awarded to them.
 The successful contractors go to work, and by collision with the commissioners and the architect they so change the specifications as to provide a greatly inferior building for the county at higher price than that for which they con tracted. The contractors go before the county levying court and ask for all additional appropriation, amounting to almost double their contract price. It develops next that certain members of the levy ing court have been bribed 10 fa- vor the additional appropriation. The suspected persons are brought into court to answer charges of ac- cepting bribes and the contractors are put on the witness stand. "Did you spend any money for the purpose of bribing these defen- dants?" they are asked. "Yes we gave Mir. Blank, a we'll known lob by;st, about SI 700 to take care of our interests before the levying court" is the reply. Some of the bribed members of the court are convicted and sentenced to the penitentiary or fined, but no effort is made to prosecute the contract ors.
 Finally new quorum court and different county judge are elected and they discharge the commission, c ntractors and architect and ap- point a new commission, instruct

BRINGING IT HOME TO THE GUARD

The Batesville Guard has fought George w. Donaghey bitterly ever since he came into the public life of Arkansas. Three different leg islatures have sustained Donaghey in his contentious on the state cap itol question, and the Guard has said that they did wrong. Now a majority of the judges composing the supreme court have decided Donaghey is in the right, and the Guard is criticising the supreme court. Every body is wrong ex- cept the Guard and Caldwell & Drake.
 Why should the Guard so per- sistently take up the battle of Caldwell & Drake as against the state of Arkansas? Let us take up a hypothetical case and apply it to the Guards home county. We will suppose that the quorum court of Independence county has authorized the levy of a tax for the purI ose of erecting a new county courthouse. Acting under their instructions, the county court has appointed a board of commissioners to supervise the

A number of stories are current 10 ac-

buying of those stocks on the decline

New Baltic-The next move on the
part Of the New Baltic company win
be to drive drill hole 1000 feet north

This viii give the company data both

en- to the lode at various depths
probably the first will be at depth
of 200 feet.
The sinking of the shaft outside the
lode is now the approved practice in
Michigan, as it permits the company,
in mining, to draw down the whole
lode without leaving any pillars.
1t is interesting, in this connection,
to note that the Lake Copper company

consequently the funds provided al

The lode outcrops on almost the

may be expected to underlie substan-
tally the whole property, permitting
