Gets Watch After II Years

Texarkana.-Judge Sam II. Smelser
today recovered a $3.50 gold watch
which was stolen from his home by
a burglar IN September, 1897. #
was sent to him by a man in La
mar county, Texas, who recently
chanced to learn the judges address.
The Texan wrote to Judge Smell
ser, saying he had watch case with
the name as. II. Smelser" engraved
on 1t, that be found the same on
the street at Paris, Texas, while
visiting a relative there eight years
ago, aud that he would be glad to
send 1t to the judge if the latter
thought it was his. A prompt an
swer from the judge brought the
long lost property by the mornings
mail. Only the case of the watch
remains. The works were missing
when picked up on the street at
Paris.

From middle Georgia: "What

The Added Burden of Grief

In these days of titanic tasks in
the field of government at home and
collapse of the whole social fabric
abroad, the President OF the United
States has, superadded to an official
load of crushing weight, the heavy
burden of personal grief. The ma.
tion mourns with him the death of
his beloved wife. The sympathy
and prayers of his fellow-citizens
will be his, in this hour of proba-
ton of soul. We do not fear for
him. No one who has perused with
care the state papers of the Presi.
dent in the brief but fruitful period
of his administration can have
failed to note the marks they bear
Of strength which comes from
within. His philosophy is not the
easy theorlzlLg of fayorite of for
tune who smiles back at circnm.
stances because circumstances have
smiled at him. He has, 1t is true,
had signal success, but be has built
it upon principles of action which
would have furnished a foundation
equally secure had adversely met
him instead Of prosperity, had he
been challenged by defeat instead of
by victory. There is one kind Of
strength that no human formula
can measure-the power Of resist
ance to anxiety and grief of the soul
of man engaged iu a great work.
The heart OF a nation beats with
the heart OF the President to-day

NOT MUCH
INTEREST IN WAR

While interest is keen in all sec
tions Of Arkansas over the war
which Is now being waged in Eu.
rope, il is not so intense as the ex.
oltement which follows a worlds
series or the war in Mexico. Large
crowds are daily about the bulletin
boards IN Little Rock, bnt there has
yet never developed enough senti-
ment on any SIDE to produce a scrap
among the onlookers, and this al
ways happens between partisaus
when the results of baseball series
are being awaited. The sympathy
tn Little Rock is the Germans for
Germany, and all the balance want
to see. Germany get the cbast'sement
they feel is due that country.
Even the Germans are not enthusi-
astic enough to 60 home and fight
for their country, and every day
the list of those petltioning for
naturalization papers which will
make them citizens of the United
States, grown in numbers. II is
doubtful if there will be ten olti-
zens Of any European nation re-
turning TO the other side Of the At
lantic to take up arms. Many
Germans, subject to call, when asked
if they would go home il they re-
ceiyed the summons, have plainly
stated that they do not feel inclined
to return. They state that they
are now interested in what is going
on in the United States, and If this
country was attacked, they would
gladly take up arms in ITS defense.
Arkansas has many citizens in Ger
many, as well as other nations of
Europe, but no fear is expressed
for their safety. They will return
later with a series of war stories
that will last them a life time.

Washington, Aug, s.-Members
OF the congressional committee who
have been investigating the situa.
tion relative to the cotton crop Of
the South as affected 10y the war in
Europe, plan to issue an address to
Southern growers declaring pro-
speotive conditions were not as
alarming as had been anticipated.
Owing to stress of business con.
neeted with the inquiry the state
ment was not completed tonight but
IL will be Issued tomorrow.
Senator Hoke Smith Of Geo 'gia,

Good Reading

There Is no doubt but that if we
could get teachers and pupils in all
our country schools to reading good
farm papers, we would have an agrI.
cultural revolution in a mighty lit
tie while. The educational value of
newspapers indeed, is by no means
appreciated as it should be. Three
good newspapers in a home, IN a
course of a year, will be worth a
month's schooling to the children.
We only recently came across this
testimony given by Daniel Webster:
1Every parent whose son is away
from home at school should supply
him with a newspaper. | remem-
her what marked difference there
was between those of my school
mates who had and who had not ac-
cess to papers. Other things being
eoual the 6rst were always superior
20 ,beIast in debate, IN composition
and general intelligence"
And OF course if your boy ls at
home, be ought to read the best
papers regularly.-The Progressive
Farmer.
