Isaac O'Barns, once pension commis- sioner in Boston, appointed by Presi- dent Franklin Pierce, was known for his terse and cutting sayings. It was told of him that he promised to sub scribe for the erection of Baptist church on condition that they should "baptize 'em in hot water"
 It is of Mr. O'Barns the story is told that when On his deathbed, or when he thought he was dying and the doc tor had pronounced his feet warm and said that no one had ever died with warm feet, the old gentleman inquired in a whisper whether the doctor had forgotten the case of John Rogers.

HELENA BOOSTERS
 STOP AT BRINKLEY
Phillips County Delegation to Pine Bluff Convention Made Fine I'm. pressiOn There-Were On Their
 Way to This City.

The Brinkley Argus gives the fol- lowing account of the visit of the Hel- ena booster delegation which came to this city and attended the Travel era' conventions
 That live set of business boosters, the Helena Business Mems League, about 75 strong, were through Brink ley yesterday noon, en route to the Travellers meet at Pine Bluff and the hour they had between trains was we'll spent for their town
 Brinkley. these days, is busy old town, everybody working, and the Helena boosters found us all down to to attract Brinkleys' attention, as she does everybody else. With uni formed brass band at the head of the procession, playing martial music, those Helena boosters, all diked out with linen coats, walking canes, pen nants and badges and blue band white hats, paraded the streets and the busy Brinkleyite stopped building, repair ing and cleaning up to watch and ad- mire all along the line of march.
 Marching in the line were many of the wealthiest, busiest business men of that live city. They wore the badg- es and Haunted the pennant banners with apparently the greatest pride ef the entire bunch.
 They SHOW that they KNOW that it is absolutely as necessary for them to give of their time and selves as it is of their cash to build city They are the men who are making Helena and all honor to them and their long headedness. unselfish methods.
 Col. Ned Horner, one of the party in commenting on the wonderful inn provements and progress made by Brinkley in overcoming the effects of the dreadful cyclone of March s, said: "I was here the morning after the cyclone and it is hardly possible for .
 me to realize just how you Brinkley people have accomplished such won derful results in rebuilding your city. Brinkley is one of the gamest little cities in all the country. I knew she would come with the spirit l saw man. ifestei by. the men who were engaged in the rebuild work, but I wasn't pre- pared for the surprise you have given in the splendid way you are doing it."
 It will be remembered that MT. Horner came to BrinkleyN with the special relief train as soon as they heard of the terrible disaster Besides his cash, he gave most valuable service and advice in the early organization of the relief work.

RFDMFN ARE
 ENTHUSIASTIC Hot Springs Members Had a Great Time at the Pine
 Bluff Meeting.
SANITARIUM SUCCESS.
One of the Hot Springs Boys Was Elected Second Officer of State
 Council.

Hot Springs, Ark, June 7.-The committee of ManataKa Tribe of the Order of Red Men of this city, who went to attend the meeting of the state council at Pine Bluff, which has been in session there for the past three days, have returned home and are enthusiastic over the manner in which they were treated by the citi- zens of that hospitable city while their guests. The committee who went was composed of the following members of Manataka Tribe: C. C. Parvin, Charles Hotchkiss, Robert 4. Cartney, w. M. Clay, G. B. Bolton and c. B. French, representing nearly, # not all, the acting officers of the tribe. Mr. Parvin had the honor Cf being elected as the Great Senior Sagamore of the state council.
 The committee did not go to the Pine Bluff meeting solely for the pleasures attending their annual reunions, but they went also for busi- ness in connection with their endeay- ors to institute and maintain in this city. a great sanitarium which visit ing Red Men from all sections of the United States can enter and receive treatment and attention, which will be under the personal supervision of brothers of the order. Not many months ago the members of Mana taka Tribe purchased the old Burling- ton hotel property, on Park avenue, Tor which they paid the sum of 5000, one thousand of which was in cash and the balance secured by mortga ge tention of the tribe to issue bonds in the sum of $10 each, which can either
 be held for period of five years and cashed in with interest, or be used by members of tribes at face value for | treatment at the sanitarium. This
 matter was placed before the state council and received the endorsement Of that body which does away with any serious doubt as to the future success of the institution Hundreds and thousands of Red Men throughout the country will take advantage of an institution of this sort when they
 learn that it has the support and en- dorsement of the state council
 Hot Springs could have easily car
 ried off the honor of entertaining the state council at it's annual pow-wow
 next year, but the committee made no effort to secure it for 1910, first de- siring to have their sanitarium in excellent working condition before the state council will hold it's annual 'n 1911. then to ask for the meeting
 of that year. Little Rock will enter tain them next year.

Skinny Boys and Chunky Girls.

In referring to thin boy it is all right to call him skinny" but you must call thin girl "spirituelle." It means the same, bu: sounds better. Never call any one but a boy "puny." A "puny" girl should be called frag- ile." It sounds more like delicate china. and all of that sex like to be compared to fine Dresden. A chunky boy is all right. but a girl has fine ly rounded figure" A boy is "gawky," but girl displays "untutored grace" -Atchison Globe.

Old Time Salaries.

How often clerks and other employ ees of big firms are heard to complain of the small salaries they receive! Yet if they realized that Columbus drew a salary of only just over f66 year they would. perhaps hesitate before grumbiing al their HOO or G150 per an mum. Prominent clergymen have re- ceived as much as and more than f1O,- GOO a year, and yet John Knox only got 16s. Sd. week, and that was 4s 2d. more than Scottish judges of his time. It must be confessed, however. that at this period of small salaries money went long way. For instance. a good Christmas dinner for a family of six during the sixteenth century could be provided for an outlay of about eightpence halfpenny.-London Standard
