Rubart. Gibson.

The first wedding on record on
the rock on Pilot Knob mountain
took place May Goth when Miss
Lizzie Rubart of Batavia and Mr..
W. d. Gibson of Gather mountain
were married.
| Only a few friends were present
including little Judy Calvin and little
Irene Stubbcheld who acted as
! flower girls.
Miss Rubart came to Arkansas
seven years ago to visit her sister,
Mrs. K. l., Calvin, and became so
charmed with the scenery and
climate that she could not be CON
tented in the northern states, so
purchased a small farm at Batavia
and settled, pursuing her vocation
as horticultural modler and writer
on horticulture and allied subjects.
Mr. Gibson was formerly connect
ed with the Mo-, State University
and paid Arkansas a visit four years
ago for the purpose of advising
friends connected with the Gather
Mountain Orchard Company, See
ing the superior horticultural ad.
vantages Of Boone county and being
charmed with the country he pur-
chased shares in the orchard com
pany and accepted the position of
superintendent. Last summer Mr..
Gibson purchased Pilot Knob with
the view Of some time making it
his home
The courtship days Of this couple
have been spent in trips through the
woods aud orchards and consulting
horticultural literature, collecting
material and laying plans to inn
prove and beautily Pilot Knob.
With the knowledge Mr., and Mrs.
Gibson possess ofhorticuIture, flora
culture and landscape gardening
combined with the natural grandure
of Pilot Knob we may look for that
spot few wears hence to be one Of
the most beautiful in Arkansas.

points and especially from Bois Du Biez, but our guns opened on the wood with so much effect that the Germans did not emerge from its shelter. A little ground was gained at various points, but on the whole the situation remained very much as it was on the previous day
 The enemy's resistance had stiff ened. but all his efforts to drive Us from the positions we had gained were repulsed with loss The German artillery mad now become more ac- tive: Nueve Chapelle was heavily shelled and the whole line was swept with shrapnel.
 Tt is difficult to give an idea of the result of this striking succe 5 on our men. They have been paying off old scores; they have now inflicted ou the enemy something Of that or ueal which he inflicted upon us in the earlier stages of the war by diut Of superior numbers and weight or ar tilery. The enemy for the time being was beaten on the run. It was the consciousness of this which filled the hospitals and ambulances with the cheeriest crowd ol wounded ever seen there
 The columns of prisoners a. they marched back, threading their way through ambulances and tlansprost and between waiting ranks of our re- serves, afforded no little encourage ment. The faces of many of them were bright yellow from the effects of the lyddite; the majority looked shaken and all admitted that the at tack had come as complete sur prise.
 Our success does not lie in the fact that we have gained an extent 'ot ground probably greater than has ever been gained in the space of so snort a time since the commencement of the present form of trench warfare but in that our men in spite of the disheartenng effects of monts of-inac tivity in the trenches have shown the utmost dash throughout these opera tiOns.
 "They have had to advance over very deep ground and carrying a very heavy weight in equipment and tools; yet no task has proved too great for them
 "All the wounded have borne testi- mony to the extraordinary devotion and gallantry of the regimentaI stretcher bearers and bearer parties, who worked until they dropped from sheer exhaustion under a hail of shrapnel and machine gun fire, which swept the open fields during the ad- vance.
