Kind Words for Arkansas.

(Mrs. V. w. S. in Kansas City starr
Some folks still think that Arkansas
is Just a bunch of hills, where hide
the sinking bobcats and the moon
shine whiskey stills. Where people
live with chickens in small, leaky one
room shacks, and raise a pack of
houn' dogs, kids and squealing razor
backs. That women all go barefoot
and smoke and even chew: the men
all have the hookworm-are a lazy,
shiftless crew. They think that school
is just a three months scrap with
alien teachers, all the church they
have is held by circuit riding preach
ers. That nothing grows up in those
hills but deadly family feuds, and
Ashotguns are the weapons used by the
hillbilly dudes. Why some folks even
think they still play Turkey in the
Straw" and dance the old square
dances, down in dear old Arkansas
but motor tourists tell us that when
passing through they couldn't tell the
difference 'twiXt that state and old
MiZZou!

Plantation.

The word plantation is used prin-
cipally in the southern states where
II originated in old slavery times to
designate farm cultivated by ne
groes, as a cotton plantation or sugar
plantation. In Maine it has dis
tinctive meaning, representing a form
of government smaller than a town
ship, In that state most of the func-
lions of local government are perform
ed by the town or township. In adj
dition to II cities and 396 towns, Maine
has IS plantations and 1S1 inorganic
ed places under the names Of planta-
tons, grants, etc.

YANKEE TEETH.
Subject Of Great Admiration by Our
British Cousins.
Gondon Daily Mail).

London Daily MaiD.
One thing about the American SOL
diers and sailors must strike English
people when they see These gallant
fighters, and that is the soundness
and general wilderness of their teeth
1. is all the more striking in that il
is such a contrast to the teeth of the
British people.
From childhood the Yank is taught
to take care of his teeth. He has
tooth drill thrice daily and visits his
dentist at fixed intervals, say, every
three or four months. If, by chance
tooth does decay the rot is at once
arrested by a filling.
The result of all this is that oul
United States cousins, besides adding
to their appearance gain in health by
having good, clean teeth, and wher
war came very few men were turned
down by the military authorities fol
having decayed teeth. So daily we
see them, their faces tanned, smilingly
exhibiting perfect sets of teeth.
1t Is a distinctive mark of the Amer.
ican--as distinctive as his uniform OF
his slang.

coming suspicious, he hoisted the tub
to the surface, anyway.
A groan came from the mouth Of
every man as the tub was lifted to

The crushed, lifeless form of Mrs.
Barrett was there. She had not lived
to step from the tub at the bottom
for huge bowlder had fallen from

From that night to this the mine

est man has any desire to enter the
mill especially at night.
1t is claimed by many reputable
citizens that at 1880 each and every
night a mining tub is hoisted slowly
and noiselessly from the depths of the
shaft of the Good" mine, and up
into the dark derrick above. And in
that tub, they swear, they can see the
form of a woman.
Steam is never raised in the boilers
and the tub and cable weigh more
than 500 pounds, yet every night al

MISSOURI MINERS SHUN
SHAFT THAT IS HAUNTED
HIGH WAGES AND SHORT HOURS
HAVE NO ATTRACTION FOR
THE NATIVES

Throughout a certain mining district
in Missouri the miners are discussing
a wierd and thrilling story with SIG
nificant glances and holdings, ana
with good reasons, as will be set forth
In the following details of several al
legged strange and unexplainable oc-
currences.
Six years ago on the Wade land
in this mining district, SHAFT was
sunk and concentrating plant or
mill" erected. The shaft disclosed
a wonderfully rich body of iron ore
90 IT was named the Good" mine.
For time all went well, tons upon
tons of ore were removed, and the
owners were fast becoming rich. one
dav a slab of rock fell, badly injurins
three men, but they finally recovered
Two weeks later another man was IN
jured, but not fatally. BY now the
mine was getting bad name they
said it was dangerous and that term
IL fraught with Ill omen in the mining
district.
Crew after crew of miners were
hired, only to quit within few days
Ore prices went down, and on account
OF this and because OF the scarcity o.
labor, the mine was shut down, bu
at the beginning of the war, when ore
prices began to. climb, "A new company
took hold of it and started opera
tons.
Woman Assumes Management.
The manager and principal oWne
of this company was woman, Mrs
Bright Barrett. She was an old han'
at the mining game, so she frequentl'
had herself lowered into the under
ground workings and "bossed" tn
men herself. The mine was benz
operated day and night, and just tW
weeks after Mrs. Barrett took charg
five men were buried under a caVe-l
of loose rock and dirt. They were a.
rescued. but all were more or les
injured
Every man quit his job and it wa
a month before another crew eoul
be hired. These were Colorado min
ers. who knew nothing of the mine
dangerous record. However, when ]
o'clck p. m. arrived (time the nigf
shift went to work. Mrs. Barrett re
eeived telephone CALL to the effe'
that the men had just heard of tn
mines bad name and none of the ere
of 35 would enter the ground.
Mrs. Barrett at once hurried to II
mine in her car. She did and sa'
everything she knew of to induce II
miners to go to work, but in val

follow her if she entered the grour
first and stayed with them during II
