Finally, in the course OF events. the

Their strategic Importance is very grear
indeed. Those Islands il the posses

as they are now ours. we ought to
make them rs strong as possible and
make them suitable base for the fleet.

Hal Reid Mr Reid shows happy understanding of his subject. He has taken the rough cowboy of the plains, under whose shirt of blue the heart beats true, and developed him into a hero. Tom Lawton, man who can not write his name, yet proves him. self a born leader of men, man to command, inspire and respect. Brave as a lion, simple as a child and the bearing of king. The various characters are built close to nature. The play is intense and interesting. W. F. Mann, the producer, deserves credit for the admirable manner in which it is put on. Scenery, light eff fe-ts and casts are said to be among the best ever seen on local stage. This company plays at the Capital theater, Little Rock, Friday and Sat urday, and goes from there to Mem phis.

The atrocities of Mulai Hatid the
 sultan of Morocco, towards the prison
 CTS taken in the fight with Fl Roghi
 (the pretender) have lost him the ser
 vices of Kaid Belton, the Englishman
 appointed to the command of the
 Moorish troops 16 months ago The
 sultan set great store by kaid Belton
 and tried to make him reconsider his
 decision to resign but the latter de clined to remain. In an interview re gently Kaid Belton said it was impos. sible for him to acquesce in the in-
 human methods of Mulai Hafid, On
 the last official paarde which 1 attend
 ed in FeZ,' he said, 93 human heads were held up before the sultan on the
 ends of rifles. Later in the same day 20 of Fl Roghi's officers had their right hands cut off at the wrist. The
 hands were taken to Mulai Hafid on a tray, as a proof that his orders ha been carried out. The stumps when the hands are cut off are steeped in a cauldron of boiling oil-not, you un- derstand, by way of further torture, put oihplS lo sup lhe DleeuiAS. Ncii, 1 never heard so much as a whimper from a single one of those men That in itself was hardihood enough but that is not all One prisoner, having stretched out his right arm and suf- fered the mutilation. walked over to
 the cauldron of oil, which was placed on a fire. The man had a cigarette between his lips, and while the stump of his arm was plunged in the boiling liquid he calmly stopped md lighted
 his cigarette at the flames. Later on 300 more heads were brought in"

NEEDS CREEK.

| Plenty of hog-killing weather now,
 an, every one has taken advantage of | it by salting their bacon for another year.
 Moving has been the order of the 1 day lately. s. H. Heffington has nov ed on John B. Abrams farm. W. L. | Day and son, Tom, have moved from
 Morrilton on the Snoddy and Jess
 Loveless farms. J. D. Parks moved near Vilonfa, and G. W. Cato moved | where he (Parks) lived. Mir. Lind sey has purchased the T. I. Mathews place and moved here from Bono. A. M. Allen has moved from Rector's s Spur to J. D. Steinsiek's place. Christmas passed quietly here. Not case of drunkenness. We celebrated Christmas with a Sunday school Xmas tree, and in spite of the bad weather, the house was crowded and all enjoyed themselves. In looking over the association min utes we noticed that out of 27 churches in the Greenbrier association Needs Creek is one of only five that has a Sunday school.
 We intended to reorganize a literary society last Friday night, but the in- element weather caused it to be post poned until next Friday night.
 Our school is doing good work now. The pupils seem to vie with each other in perfect lessons and conduct. This makes the sixth term that J. D. Stein sick has taught here and another sue cessful term is assured. The follow ing were appreciated visitors at school last Friday: w. NJ. Mills, G. w. Woodruff, Zona Mills, Hense Glover, Mathis Taylor and Mrs. Eliza Sherer and Sallie Mills If patrons would visit school oftener better results could be obtained.
 John Casey and Artie Cato were married last Thursday, Rev. Cantrel officiating. It's useless to say we wish them joy.
 w. N. Jones, candidate for assessor, was seeing" the boys last Tuesday. Newt is putting up clean fight and we believe the one that beats him will be the next assessor.
