TRAVELERS URGED
TO ATTEND OUTING.
_ i'
J. G. Burlingame, secretary of
the Arkansaw Travelers, is send
ing out a circular letter to the
members in which he says:
“Our second annual outing will
be held in the city of Hot Springs,
May 4, 5 and 6, 1905. The offi
cers of this association have la
bored unceasingly to make the
coming meeting the grandest one
ever held by commercial men in
the south. The mayor and citi
zens of Hot Springs have arra.ig

ANOTHER TRUST BUSTERm
Another “trust buster” has
cast its shadows upon the horizon
of industrialism, this time in the
form of a little book by W. V.
Marshall of Berlin, Pa., editor of
the Berlin Record. Mr. Marshall
styles his book “Competition,”
after what he asserts to be the
only force which should govern
in the regulation of trade. By a
plan of tax v/hich he proposes,
he would paralyze the trusts as
effectually, believes he, as he sets
forth the trusts have been par
alyzing things in general, not
excepting their trustships them
selves. The book is interesting
as dealing with the trust ques
tion on new and original lines
and should, therefore, be read on
that account if for nothing else,
by those who aspire to be posted
on general and political affairs.
To the anti-trusters it appeals
with especial force, and is a
strong presentment in their be
half. The price of the book is 75
: cents, postpaid, and can be had
i by addressing the Berlin Pub
lishing Company, Berlin, Pa.

HOW BASS REAR
THEIR YOUNG.
I -
The male bass reminds the fe
! male from time to time that the
nest being ready, it is her duty
to deposit the eggs, which, at
the proper time, she does. The
male pays unremitting attention
to the eggs and also to the young
, when hatched, and until the
yoke sack, which is attached to
the underside of the little fishes,
is entirely absorbed by them;
this is for their sustenance until
they are strong enough to swim
and procure their food. At this
stage of their existence the par
ent fish ceases all care of the
young, and if the fry, as they
are called, cannot find a hiding
place, their own parents would
just as soon eat them as any
other species. This is “the sur
vival of the fittest. L. A. Spen

CARNIVAL COMPANY
ARRIVES IN TOWN.
The United States Carnival
Company arrived Sunday, after
a very successful week’s enter
tainment at Prescott, and are
placing their tents in position on
the railroad property adjoining
Front street.
This company guarantee order
ly and clean attractions, and
among their shows are “the lit
tle woman,” “mirror of the
mazes,” “negro minstrels” and
a bunch of pay attractions. They
have a number of free acts, good
music by a brass band, looping
the loop, Ferris wheel, etc.
Big crowds will no doubt be
drawn and as the fire laddies are
to get a per cent on all admis
sions, the pleasure of the week
will not be without its benefits.
