 'srhe cannimai is sheep Of the des- ert. It is called backteTia because it has hump on its back The calni- nal is very patient, and will lie down and die without groan, but when it is angry it gets its back up, which is called taking the hump. The shep- herds Of canniInals is called Arabs. When they live in towns they are called street Arabs. When the canni- nal goes on journey it drinks as much as it can to last for many days. Such animals are cai1ed accquiducks Those that cannot carry enough gre called inebriates."

PRACTICAL GIFT FOR REGGAR
Stranger May Have Meant We'll, but His Kindness Was Not in the
 Least Appreciated.

After suffering excruciating tor lures for six months from doubling up perfectly sound leg to fit on a wooden stump the crutch-bearing beg gar finally succeeded ill eliciting sym pathy from passerby. With kindly eyes the stranger eyed the cripple from top to toe.
 You seem to be in pretty bad way" he said.
 Yes, sir,'' whined the cripple. Couldn't be much worse.'
 "Too bad,' said the sympathizer, q must see if something can't be dcne for you.'
 Hope beat strongly in the beGgar's breast and he murmured God bless you," with unusual fervOr.
 Two days later the synpathizer ap. peared again and ostentatiously pre- sented the cripple with the material izatlon of his benevolent intentions. He gave him a new crutCE.

ARKANSAS FALLING
 AT PORTS ABOVE
RIVER WILL PROBABLY COME TO A STAND HERE TODAY NEAR
 THE 2S.FOOT MARK.
Private Leyee Breaks at Hensley's Is- land and State Farm Levee
 is Threatened.

The Arkansas river is falling at all points above Pine Bluff and may come to stand here today, although it was still rising last night and the gauge at 6 o'clock showed 27.6 feet here. The river may reach the 2S-foot mark here before it begins to fall, but there has been no rain above and no higher mark is anticipated.
 Reports from down the river points yesterday were to the effect that the Arkansas was causing some uneasi- ness, as the levees were under a se- were strain. At the state farm the water was causing alarm, as the wat CT had risen four feet on the levee in front of the state farm, and was still rising fast last night. The levee, however, can stand several feet more of water there. The real trouble is being caused by some caving of the banks below the point where the loop or protection levee has been thrown up.
 The river reached "A feet at Little Rock yesterday afternoon, but came to a stand shortly afterwards. It fell nearly two feet at, Fort Smith yester- day.
 A report reached this city last night to the effect that the private levee protecting the plantation of F. L.. Wigle and G. A. Board at Hensley's Island, up the river, had given way and that 300 acres of an 800-acre farm, were inundated. The Plum Rayou Levee was reported to be hold ing fine and no break is expected along that system.

shipping pool, combination of foreign
owned ships which has had its own way
in the matter of debating terms to the
railways and making agreements with
them against the spirit and purpose Of
the antitrust law. The administration
has now joined hands with those con
gressmen who would get at this sort Of
thing by forbidding such ships from
landing at or clearing from American
ports. A bill drawn up the attorney
general was introduced into the House
recently providing that all vessels
owned by persons who have been adj
Judged to have violated the antitrust
law shall be prohibited from entering
any port of the United States under a
penalty of S25, 900 for each oifense. 1t
is not a party measure, and has excel

it is passed it will be enforced, there is
small doubt Of that.
