I Miss Hazel Kirk Bragg arrived

The Coming Eclipse.
The eclipse of the moon which
took place August 14, has aroused
considerable interest in this form
of celestial phenomena, and it is
likely that the partial eclipse of
the sun, which will take place
August 30, will be watched with
unusual interest. In the United
States the eclipse is visible east
of a line drawn from Galveston
through Denver, and north to
Montana. It is total in Tunis,
Northern Africa, and extends
northwest through Spain and
Portugal. A great many expe
*__ Kit
aiuons are '-r
scientific bodies to inspect the
eclipse, as at that time certain
features of the sun can be studied
which are impossible under or
dinary conditions.
Worried Over Insurance.
Pine Bluff, Aug. 27. -The ques
tion of insurance is one which is
worrying Pine Bluff cotton men
considerably as a result of the
exodus from the state of the old
line companies which wrote in
surance on cotton last year. Pine
Bluff receives from 75,000 to
95,000 bales each season, and the
home companies will be unable
to carry all this insurance. A
prominent cotton man said today
that insurance would cost more
this season and as a result the
producer would receive less for
his cotton than he did before the
anti-trust law went into effect.
Arrested for Kidnaping.
Stethens, Aug. 27. - Simon
Green, a highly respected citizen
of this place, was arrested here
today by United States Marshal
Holman and taken to Ardmore,
I. T., to answer a charge of kid
naping. The causes which led
up to the arrest date back sev
eral years and grew out of the
separation of himself and wife
and his fight to secure the custo
dy of his two children. The
matter was fought through the
courts here and his wife finally
secured them and left for the
territory.
Hotel Porter Under Arrest.
Hot Springs, Aug. 27.—J. H.
Dougherty of Ripley, Mo., was
robbed last night of $114, the
amount he drew out of the bank
yesterday with the intention of
leaving for home. His room at
the Sumpter house was entered
last night and the burglar also
stole $9 from his roommate,
George Maurourer.
The hotel porter is under ar
rest, suspected of the robbery.

WHEN OLD AGE COMES
The sense of sight grows most
precious, though often the best
of glasses cannot restore to old
eyes even a portion of their
youthful power. These facts
should impress all with the im

organs of sight. Do not wait
till your eyes become impaired,
but have them tested at once, as
often an eye specialist can detect
and remedy in time what might
prove a serious trouble if ne

FOLEYSKIDNEYCURE
■ ^ l stops irregularities, strengthens the urinary organs and builds up the worn-out tissues ■

rM Ym am easily determine if your kidneys are
U out of order by setting aside for aa hours a

G. B. Burhana of Carlisle Center, N. Y., writes:
“About four years ago I wrote you stating that I had been entirety
cured of a severe kidney trouble by taking lees than two bottles of
Foley’s Kidney Curs. It entirely stopped the brick-dust sediment and

have never had a return of any of those symptoms during the four

heartily recommend Foley's Kidney Cure to any one suffering from
