A Pathetic Escape.
Special to Independent.
Little Rock, April 9.—0. F.
Suggs, sergeant of police in Fort
Smith, Wednesday returned
Walter Munday, an escape, to
the State Hospital. Munday es
caped about a week ago and
walked all the way to Fort
Smith, being arrested as soon as
he reached the city. The Mun
day case is a pathetic one.
About a year ago his little child
was burned to death, and the fa
ther soon afterwards became in
sane. His family is in destitute
circumstances. Munday’s men
tal condition has been so im
proved that Dr. J. L. Greene
states he will soon be able to re
turn to Fort Smith to care for
his family.

A WEEK IN ARKANSAW,
I spent a week in a state
With much land, rich and raw.
It is the state—the much cursed state,
The State of Arkansaw.
1 found the landscape low and high;
’Twould suit a chief and squaw,
For there’s streams and woods galore,
In the bounds of Arkansaw.
The fields are full of crops and herds
That will money surely draw,
For millionaires will rise and look
When they pass through Arkansaw.
The saw-mills run the whole year
through,
Never wait an early thaw.
They cut the timber by the million feet i
In the woods of Arkansaw.
The business men are wide-awake,
As shrewd as old Esau.
The bankers loan you cash; hotels
serve good hash
In the towns of Arkansaw.
The planters are sturdy men
With whiskers on their jaw.
They’re not afraid to toil and work
In the fields of Arkansaw.
They love our flag—I heard, them
brag—
It upholds our sacred law,
And we will fight with all our might
To keep it over Arkansaw.
The girls are neat—can’t be beat,
And will take you by the paw,
For they’re modest gii’ls—friendly
girls—
Are the girls of Arkansaw.
My landlord is a prince,
And Queen might be his good wife’s
name. !
i It makes me sad to from them part,
i But always glad I came
I
I hear the conductor call my train,
I hea’- the engine pant and chaw.
It makes me sigh to say goodbye
To my friertds in Arkansaw.
I’ll soon be back in Indiana.
I’ll tell them what I saw.
And bet you may, that what I say
Will be good about old Arkansaw.
—Lafe J. McCutcheon.
Newport, Ark., Feb. 22, 1914.
Robert H. Askew, Will Jack- j
son and Mrs. Joe Balmaz .were i
called to Batesville last evening
by the critical illness of their

Marking Arrival of Age,
When I get to be old I ain’t goln’
to find It out by oountin’ up to see,
nor by my whiskers, nor by my gums,
nor none of them signs. They’ll all
fool you. No, sir! But one of thase
times I’ll get throwed down, and I
won’t bounce back. Then I’ll know
It’t all over. When a man gets that
1 way, he’s old. Old, see? It don’t
make any difference how muoh longer
he lives after that, he don’t ever get
any older.—“Billy Fortune."
Humility First.
We shall never be the "light of the
world” except on condition of being
the "salt of the earth" You have to
do the humble, Inconspicuous, Bllent
work of chocking corruption by a pure
example before you can aspire to do
the other work of raying out light Into
the darkness, and so drawing men to
Christ himself.—Alexander McLaren.
Had Stood Hard Test.
"I understand that you once sang In
a glee club." “Yes,” replied the great
politician. “And I want to tell you
when a man with a voice like mine
can hold a position in a glee club
It shows that he Is some officeholder ”
—Los Angeles Listener
Youny Man Must Have Friends.
For boys and young men friendship
is a prime necessity of existence.
When a man has established himself
In life and the interests of home and i
wife and family have absorbed him, j
he may, perhaps, dispense with friend- j
ship But as long as he is young, un- J
married and unsettled, he Is as de
pendent on friendship as on air or
food.
j
Speech In Marble.
Rodin Bays of the antique master
pieces: They "speak to me louder,
move me more, than human beings.
In Its turn, may the new century medi
tate upon these marvels, and may It
try'to ascend to them through Intelli
gence and love.”
