the bright patch of moonlight on the

This was awful! Somebody was
lurking there between her and the big
house where the family were. She
might have screamed but there RAJ a

she didn't want to scare him and

JUNIOR COOK
FRESH WAX BEANS


Break the beans into short lengths,
and remove stems.
Wash and drain.
Cover with boiling water and boil
till tender. If beans are fresh this will
take about rs minutes.
The water should be nearly boiled
away. A little practice will show a
careful cook just how much water to
use with vegetables; there should be
ample to avoid the danger of burning
and yet there should be none to throw
away as the water contains valuable
minerals the body needs.

QUITMAN.

Health is very good here now.
 Farmers are moving along nicely with their farm work
 Some of our farmers went to Con- way last week with cotton and sold as low as 5 cents per pound.
 John Hall and family, who have been visiting here for some time, left Monday morning for their home near England.
 George and Price Dawes will leave Tuesday for New Mexico, where they expect to file on some land for a home.
 Bond Jackson came in Monday from Oklahoma for a visit to his parents.
 Vernon Bridges had the misfortune to get one of his legs bruised very badly Saturday by the team running away with a stalk cutter.
 John Woolly will leave Tuesday for Conway, where he expects to enter the State Normal School.
 Well, Enola, I said that in three weeks after Cleveland was elected the second time that cotton advanced $5 CT more on the bale, which was in 1892. Now I find I sold cotton in that year before the election as low as 5 3-4 cents and after the election sold as high as 9 cents. Now according to Mir. Hester, as cited by your cotton sold on the New York market this same year, 1899, from ' 3-16 to 10 cents, and yet this was all before MT. Cleveland was inaugurated or under MT. Harrison's administration, a Re publican. Now according to Mir Hes ter, as stated by you, the highest point reached in Cleveland's administration was in 1895, from ' 1-16 to 9 cents. Now let's see in 1892, Republican, New York, 3-16 to 10 cents; local , 3-4 to cents. In 1900, under Me Kinley, Republican, l find l sold cot ton on our local markets at 9 1-10 cents. Now under which administra- tion, Democratic or Republican, was cotton the highest? In support of the assertion 1 made that some cot ton sold as low as 3 cents 1 find that in 1896 I sold some as low as f 3-4 cents, plus 1-2 cents on the Little Rock market, but l am sure if you will only look around little you will find some old horny-handed son of toll who will vouch for the assertion or show you the papers. If you doubt any of my figures, come over to Quitman and l will show them to you in black and white and do my best to show you a good time.

 We should all take the advice of the Union Grove writer in regard to the use of high price fertilizer, for it's the truth, we can't afford to pay the high prices for fertilizer and then get nothing for our products. So let us be careful not to go too heavy on the use of commercial fertilizer unless the prices are greatly reduced.

Ardmore, Okla, March 10.-The southWest's greatest scandal was laid bare today when Clara Smith Hamon went on trial for the murder of Jake Hamon, the millionaire Republican politician, in the Carter county court house. One hundred and ffty-seven compose the venire from which the court hopes to secure a jury. The tentative jury is for the most part composed of well-established business and professional men of Ardmore.
 Clara Hamon was present in the courtroom when the court was called to order by Judge Thomas Champion this morning. She wore a blue tail ored suit, sailor hat and pumps. She was surrounded by an array of expensive legal talent.
 Two blocks of seats were reserved ln the room for members of the wom- ans family. The courtroom was jam med by 400 murder fans," among them many wealthy oil men, both friends and bitter enemies of Hamon Millionaires bumped shoulders with women, cowboys and Indians in the packed crowd.

CAME COMMISSION
 GIVEN NEW LEASE

Little Rock, March f0.-The fish and game commission, wha has been the source of more or less opposition ever since it was created has been given another lease of life. The house had manifested considerable anta gonism toward the commission and its oponents had succeeded in tabling or defeating several bills with refer cnce to it. The senate has been more friendly. however and after making very heavy reduction in the amount of appropriation asked for, had sent to the house a bill carrying total of $80,000 for the next two years. This was passed yesterday by the house by a vote of 46 to 9. The opposition was led by Mir. O'Neill of Cleveland and Mr. Williamson of Sevier who ar gued that there is no good derived from the commission and that it seeks to curtail the rights of the people. Mir. Belote of Hot Springs, who is proud of the title of being general issimo of the battle axe forces led the fight for the bill He declared that it seeks to protect and preserve the fish and game of the state and that without some safeguards, the wild life of Arkansas would soon become extinct. When he was asked by one Of the members if it was not true that he favored the bill because on of his sons would be appointed game warden if it passed, he indienantly denied the statement and said that not one of his sons would accept such a place if it were offered him.

 Ardmore, Okla, March 10.-The TO- nance of an "empire builder" and a shopgirl which ended with the death of the former and wherein the latter found little other than sorrow at the end of her "bluebird trail,' was to be unfolded in the trial of Clara Smith Hamon which began here to- day.
 Formal legal information merely charged that Clara Smith" murdered Jake L. Hamon by inficting a wound with a small-calibre pistol that caused his death. But out from the case-a drama of "the other woman of the eternal triangle" faced with parting of the ways; of mighty politics, rail road building and industrial pioneer ing, vast oil fields and fortunes, all conceived by a one-time penpiless ad- venturer-stand allegations that have gripped the interest of a nation.
 Ten years ago Ardmore was but an outpost of civilization in the cattle country of the southwest, struggling hard for its existence. Then the god of luck smiled on this vlllage-oil was struck, and the town was made"
 The Ardmore of today is not unlike the smaller cities of the east or mid dle west. Its streets are paved with asphalt and brick; it's main thorough fares are well lighted at night; and it's office buildings and residences are modern. Ardmore boasts of a pop ulaton of 10000.
 The Carter county courthouse, in which the trial is being held, is a mod ern structure and of the type usually found in towns of 10000 in the mid dle west. The district courtroom has a seating capacity of about 300.
 Clara Smith Hamon, known pub- licly as secretary for Hamon, and di- vorced wife of his nephew, is alleged to have fatally wounded the multi millionaire and Republican national committeeman from Oklahoma, dur ing a quarrel at an Ardmore hotel after the two were reported to have decided to part because of recon ciliation between Hamoon and his wife Hamon had reached the zenith of his power politically, and had made name almost uneqUalled in this his tory of development of the new south west. Charges that Hamon at the be- ginning of the alleged romance paid his nephew to marry the girl SO she might carry the name of Hamon were denied by the nephew.
 ! The alleged shooting occurred the evening of November 21- Sunday. Ham1n walked into the lobby of the hotel and announced that he had ac- cidantaIly shot himself while cleaning a pistol he had intended to take with him on a hunting trip to West Texas and Montanta. He walked unaided to Hardy sanitarium and afterwards Frank Ketch, his business manager and chief lieutenant. issued a forma statement saying the wound was ac- cidentally self-inhicted,
