Duty was calling to Lowell Cane, Western Union messenger boy, yester day shortly afternoon as he sped east ward on Adams street riding bicycle propelled by motor wheel" attached to the rear wheel of the cycle. Ma chine and lad were travelling at a smart speed as they reached Fifth street, the paving making excellent going. Put ting on more gas. the chauffeur pas senger negotiated the turn to the north and the rougher natural dirt road.
 Things happened rapidly then. The rough going, combined with the high speed. caused Lowell to lose control of the machine. the rear half of which seemed to have the greater momentum. To a casual observer the shiny red
 motor wheel seemed to travel up the boys spinal column. turn around a couple of times in the air, the whole landing in a heap with a crash that made one fearful of a fatality.
 Not so, however. Rubbing the dust from his eyes. Lowelli unwrapped the tire of the motor wheel" from his neck and unsteadily rose to his feet to sur vey the wreckage. The damage was slight. both to boy and machine, but it was a spectacular event, though brief.

Dinner at Old PlanterSville.

The citizens of the old Plan tersville neighborhood gave a basket dinner at the Cross Roads School House, near Cross Store, about twelves North of this city, on Friday of last week.
 The object of the gathering was to raise money to finish pay ing the indebtedness due on the school building, which was erect ed last Fall, and to stimulate and awaken interest in matters pertaining to the school The dinner was free, being furnished in abundance by the good people of the nei ghborhood, but lemon a le and other cold drink stands were run on the grounds to raise m bney for the purpose above mentioned.
 Timely and instructive speech were made during the day by Juige J. w. Kimbro, Patrick Henry, Esq and Judge Robert c. Knox, all of this city. A gen. tleman from St. Louis, who is visiting relatives in this section, also made an address, but we are unable to give his name.
 There was large crowd in at- tendance and all report having spent a most enjoyable day. The citizens of this particular neigh borhood are noted for their gen. erosity and hospitality, and, on occasions like this, people come from far and near to mix and mingle with them and be enter tained as their welcome guests.

Thank You, Mir. Wilson.

Mr. Geo. NJ. Wilson, one of the
 best fruit and truck growers in this section of the State, who lives about two miles Southeast of this city, has our thanks for a lot of the finest peaches, and the largest and best watermelon, that we have seen this season. The melon was of the Watson va riety, and measured two feet and six inches in length and two feet and seven inches in circumfer- ence. As there were no scales on our side of town large enough to weigh it, we cannot give the weight, but would guess it to be something over fifty pounds. MT. Wilson informs us that he can now load a straight car with mel ons of this size, and car loaded with the kind brought us would be sight we'll worth looking at. Mir. Wilson raises nearly every species of fruit and vegetable adapted to this climate, to per- lection, and has the only pear orchard, of any consequence, in this section of the State. It will be remembered that he received gold medal. .on his pears at the Panama Exposition at San Frah- cisco, Cal, two years ago. Those interested iii fruit and truck growing would be we'll repaid for their time by riding out and looking over MT. Wilson's or chards, truck and melon patches.

THE NATIONAL RECALL.

This Is propaganda which in certain localities is being clamor. ed for. The National Recall is a weird and illusionary dream. which like following the ignis fatuus leads to naught. It ap
 peals to popular ignorance be
 cause its workings are unknown and its methods not understood.
 To recall a Congressman would require more time than intervenes between one election and another. and to recall a President would take one from youth to old age. Then, again, the recall would, about ninety. nine times out of one hundred, be invoked by a dissatisfied and diseruntled minority. and would fall as flat as a founder when put up to vote of the people, and all the expense, trouble and v~xa'ian of an election, for such purpose, would be bothera.ion without a benefit. Like the ini. tiaiive and referendum 1t would be palladium only in imagina
 tion. Arkansas has had the initiative and referendum for many years. and while they have cost the people of the State thousands of dollars, up to this time. oniy one initiative measure and 1t of questionable utility
