Commencing in the month of August
and running through the months of
September and October the shippers
make contracts of sale with the grow
ers and business men and distributors
in the South Atlantic States, in Texas
and other southwestern states for hun
dreds of thousands of bushels of seed
potatoes for planting. the season for
which closes early in March and dur
ing the latter part OF February. If
these potatoes fail to reach their des-
tination in time for planting, it makes
a double loss. The seed men in the
south cannot wait, and the shipper in
the north loses his goods because they
will promptly turn down the potatoes;
the loss of the potatoes plus the freight
comes upon the shipper: provided, as
is being evidenced by advices coming
in, that the receivers at the other end
have aseertained that it will be i'm

"The Man, the Maid and the Money"

"The Man, the Maid and the Money"
The offering at the Colonial last
night was THE Man, the Maid and the
Money" with Dan Russell and Billy
House, two as clever comedians as
ever appeared in Bryan, in the Leaving
roles. They fully met every word Oh
praise that had been said of them
in advance announcements, and. ~
anything, were better than they had
been pictured. They are comedians an
over land Lord knows they are big
enough, in makeup, in facial expres7
sion. in pose, in everything. Just to-
see them is to laugh. They had the|
audience going in five minutes after
the curtain rose, and never turned
them loose.
The cast included some splendid
voices, including Misses Maybell Mari
low, Marjorie Ray and Hazel McCannl
Their songs were new, catchy full on
music and very much enjoyed. Thd
other members of the company and
the chorus were good.

Mr.. ]. T. MCGEE, which he read as
follows
The Bible and Our Duty to II.
We should strive to do our duty
Give the world more Gospel light,
Show the world there is beauty
In the path that leads to right.
Let us teach this dear old Bible
AS a message from our Lord,
Look not on it as trifie;
Use it as we would sword.
Yet be careful how we use it.
Weld 1t with hand of love:
IT'S not ours that we abuse it
Tis a message from above,
Sacred are its very pages
And should be to you and me,
They have come down through the
ages
Last throughout eternity.
Half the world is still benighted
Waiting for more Gospel truth,
Pray that we may be united:
This would be the strongest proof
That our mission is from Heaven
And our message Is divine,
! Proudly bear the banner given
In one grand united line.
Christ the captain of salvation
We should move at His command,
/ Till the faith of every Nation
On the Rock of Ages stand.

The formal announcement of John OConnell as a candidate for the of flee of assessor of Jefferson county, appears in today's issue of the Gra phic.
 Mir. O'Connell has lived in Pine Bluff since boy, and has been a life long Dcmocyat, and has always been ono of the city's most progressive citizens. Some years ago he and the late Capt. J. r. Hicks built and op- crated the first electric light plant in Pine Bluff. He and II. P. Bradford built and owned the first street rail way in the city. Later he with F. Nj, Rosenberg and the late N. B. Trulock were the committee who raised the $25 .00o for the purpose of locating the Cotton Belt shops in this city This, as all know. was the real beginning of the present city of Pine Bluff.
 Having ample business experience and knowing the values of the realty of the county as well as the city, he feels competent to administer the of flee in an intelligent and business-like manner. Mir. O'Conells platform is Eaualizc the Taxes.
 He considers the assessors office the most important cue in the county, and asks the voters to elect him and help to put Jefferson county on cash basis. We recommend his can didacy to the voters for their consid cration on December ,.

recently captured in Texas by the sheriff of this county, dug his way out of the Grant County jail, and then after gaining his liberty went directly to the home of Sheriff Mathews, and calling him out, told him that he was ready to be locked up again. Sheriff Mathews promptly accommodated him and he is now confined in cell, where he will not have so much liberty as was accord ed him before his escape. From the time Berry emerged from the jail a free man to the time he called on the sheriff again to lock him up was not oyer 20 minutes
 When questioned at the jail Berry stated that his sole reason for break
