When visitors came, Bobby was often turned out of his room and into the garret for a night or two. He did not object to this, but he felt that it endangered certain cherished posses sions. When his uncle. the clergy man, arrived unexpectedly one night Bobby was transferred to his garret quarters in haste and with small cere- mony. and neglected to take any pre- cautions to guard his treasures.

 ManN llsea of Sand.

The sands of the sea are singularly useful. They are of primary imp0r- tance in glassmaking. They have al important place in warfare. as q bank of saEd twenty inches thick is proof against modern rife shots. The cleo trica properties of sand show that it has positive electricity. although q rod of silica, the chief constituent of sand. is negative.
 The singular drying effect which e. CUTS when a stretch of wet sand IS pressed by the foot is due entirely to an altera tion in the piling of the sand grains Normally the grains are close together but abnormal piling is brought about by pressure of the foot the space between the edges of the grains being enlarged and the water drained away. If the pressure Of the foot is continued the sand becomes wetter than ever. the partial vacuum quickly bringing water from the sur rounding sand.
 In quicksand the moving character is thought to be due to the imprison- ment between the grains of gases from organic matter.-Chicago Tribune.

Our North and South railroad news is not very f1attering at this time says the Monticello Monticellonian.
 Whether the promoter, MT J. M. Parker, is going to succeed in his enterprise or not, is very questionable problem at this junc- ture. Rumors are afloat that the scheme has fallen through but no one can blame Mr. Parker if it be true.
 He has spent much time and most of his private fortune, perhaps, in an endeavor to build this road, and if he fails it is certainly no fault of his. To build a trunk line of road requires much capital, and the money-world is as skittish as an un- broke mule. We will get this road some day, but just when there is no telling.

MAJ. BRECKENRIDGE
 FOR U. $. SENATOR

A correspondent writing to the Van Buren Argus makes a suggestion that will be very warmly seconded by every one in Pine Bluff. He says: ::
 ''The hour and times are ripe for the election of Col. Clifton R. Breck- inridge of Fort Smith, the man of the hour, to the United States sen- ate.
 The past record of Colonel Breck- inridge in connection with public ser- vice, both in state and national af- fairs, furnishes a safe augury for the future and his pre-eminent fitness for the position. His recognized abil- ity while in congress closely associa- ted him with Mir. Wilson in the ardu- ous work of framing the Wilson tariff bill. and President Cleveland saw in him the capacity for international di- plomacy when he sent him as am- bassador to Russia.
 Send him to the United States senate and he would soon find recog- hilton as one of its ablest members, the peer of it's ablest men from any of the most powerful and foremost states. Sprung from distinguished , ancestry, notable for intellectual

WOMAN BOUND TO
 RUN FOR OFFICE
Appeals to Voters of New Hampshire to, Sign the Nomination
 Papers.

Concord, N. H., Aug. 12.-Mrs. Ma rilla M. Kicker, who desires to stand at the primary in September as . candidate for governor, but who was debarred from a place on the official ballot by the recent decision of the attorney general, has adopted new tactics and will endeavor to get her name on the official ballot in Mo- vember by means of nominatiin pa- pers. For this purpose she, through her attorney, issued an appeal to 1000 male voters of the state to come to her assistance, and to procure their signatures blanks have been sent brodcast over the state.
 One of the provisions of the new primary election law stipulates that candidates for election offices must be nominated: CD By primary held in accordance with the act, or @ by nomination papers signed and filed as provided by existing stat utes,'' and her attorney holds that un- der the latter provision her name cannot be arbitrarily rejected.
 All that Marilla M. Kicker demands declares her attorney, is a "square deal.' Many voters, some of whom may not favor the policy of electing any woman to the office of chief ex- ecutive, even as capable and accom- plished one as Mrs. Kicker, are nev- with the courtesy and consideration becoming her sex, embodying and ex- emplifying, as her present candidacy does, the great cause of equal rights to which her active life has been so largely devoted.
