ANNUAL TOURNAMENT.
The thirteenth annual tournament
of the Arkansas state sportsmen’s as
sociation will be held under the aus
pices of the Jonesboro club July 8, 9
and 10, and a number of our best local
shots expect to attend.
Jonesboro has raised §360 of added
money and is making preparations
for entertaining the gathering. The
Newport club may invite the associa
tion to hold their next tournament
here and it is almost certain that
Newport could land the event.
A town is supposed to raise a lib
eral purse of added money and we be
lieve that Newport business men
could be counted upon to do the right
thing. Nothing would stimulate in
terest in the local club such as the
state shoot held here.
TEACHERS WANTED.

and inexperienced. We have more

ADVANTAGE OF
KNOXVILLE SCHOOL.
The teachers of Arkausas who are
thinking of attending a summer school
this summer can find no place more
desirable than the Summer School of
the South to be held at Knoxville.
Those in charge have provided for a
faculty of the most distinguished edu
cators of the country, 93 in number.
The location of the school is desirable
as Knoxville is one of the healthiest
and most picturesquely situated cities
in the South. 2,000 from the South
attended this school last summer, and
fully as large an attendance is ex
pected this year. On account of the
cheap railroad rates, I am sure Ar
kansas will be well represented in this
school this summer. b tJl

Washington, D. C., May 1, 1903.
Whereas, By satisfactory evidence presented to the
undersigned, it has been made to appear that “THE FIRST
NATIONAL BANK OF NEWPORT,” located in the City of
Newport, in the County of Jackson and State of Arkansas, has
complied with all the provisions of the Statutes of the United
States, required to be complied with before an association shall
be authorized to commence the Business of Banking;
Now Therefore, I, Thomas P. Kane, Deputy and Acting
Comptroller of the Currency, do hereby, certify that “THE
FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF NEWPORT” located in the
City of Newport, in the County of Jackson and State of Ark
ansas, is authorized to commence the business of Banking as pro
vided in Section Fifty-one hundred and sixty-nine of the Re
vised Statutes or thq United States.
In Testimony Whereof witness my hand and
Seal of office this first day of May, 1903.

This Bank has an authorized
CAPITAL of $100,000.00.
An authorized and subscribed Capital is a convenient thing—
good thing for advertising purposes, but to be perfectly honest,
and tell our patrons the truth, it really counts for little. We
could have had, just as easily, a Subscribed Capital of
$500,000. It would not have cost us one cent more.
What our patrons are really interested in knowing is, this
Bank has invested in its business, of ITS OWN MONET
$58,000.00 OF CASH PAID IN CAPITAL and iundvided
profits. That is the reason this Bank is prepared to take good
care of your business. And we assure you that MORE CAPI
TAL WILL BE PAID IN as soon as we believe it can be safely
and profitably invested.
