The Arkansas Angora Stock Com
pany, recently organized at Eureka
Springs, Friday contracted for 500
goats to be placed in the company’s
coral near Berry ville within one week.
On their ranch, which is two miles
from the county seat, are two very
prominent and picturesque knobs,
which are visible for a long distance.
On each is a magniflcieut spring, and
the whole is believed to constitute an
ideal range for Angoras.
This is the company’s first consign
ment, and the outcome of their ven
ture will be watched with interest as a
practical test of the adaptability of
north-west Arkansas for Angora cul
ture.

A rather singular coincidence was
brought about in Helena by the recent
term of “divorce court,” as it was
called by the attorneys, taking its
name from the number of divorce
suits pending for its action.
On Wedt esday afternoon a petition
was introduced for the divorce of
Mrs. Lee Archdale and the court
readily granted it. The petition also
requested the court to restore to her
! her maiden name, which was Miss
Susie Pinkston, which requested wr.3
also granted. Thursday evening at
7:30 Miss Susie Pinkston was made
the wife of one Sanford Hutchinson,
thereby only enjoying her restored
maiden name about sixteen hours.
ONE ON SECRETARY WILSON.
A member of Congress tells an
amusing story of Secretary Wilson
| illustrative of the influence of bureau
j chiefs. The member recently asked
1 Mr. Wilson’s opinion of a bill before
Congress. “I know nothing about it,”
said the Secretary. “I do not concern
myself with legislation before Con
gress. If it is passed and the Presi
dent sends it to me to execute, that
will be time enough for me to form an
opinion. I know nothing about it>
nothing at all,” and the Secretary lay
back in his chair regarding the repre
sentative with half-closed dyes, then
sat upright and opening bis eyes wide
looked at him over his glasses with an
expression which clearly said: “Now
what have you to say?”
“I am sorry,” said the member.
“I was hoping to get some light from
you.;‘_In fact, I have just been reading
a long communication favoring the
bill, which I am inclined to oppose.
It says so and so”—the secretary
looked bored—“and Mr. Secretary, it
was written over your signature.”
“JaSper” said the Secretary, apjj
pealing to his son, “did I ever write
such a letter?”
“No, father,” was the reply, “but
Prof.-wrote it and you signed
it,” and right there Mr. WilBon pro
duced the best box of Connecticut
grown Sumatra-wrapped cigars in his
cabinet.—New York Tribune.

TOOK TO THE WOODS.
A neighboring exchange tells us
that when the Hoxie, Pocahontas &
Northern railroad was first built the
people of the little town of Pocahon
tas flocked to the railroad to see the
first train. The engineer having
reached the end of his run, and think
ing to have some fun, climbed down
from the cab and commenced oiling
the engine. This aroused the curios
ity of the people, and they crowded
around the engine to see what he
was doing. Having oiled up he made
two or three jumps from his cab,
pulled the whistle cord, turned on
the steam and opened the cylinder
cocks and yelled: “Look out, I’m
going to turn round.” Immediately
there was a scamper for the hills.
