That
“Tired
Feeling”
It is often joked about, but the condi
tion itself is no joke. It indicates
serious derangement of the blood and
nervous system.
People can’t help feeling lazy and worn
out if impure blood flowing through all
the organs is poisoning them and para
lyzing their activity.
Spring is the season of blood impurity.
Nine people out of ten would feel better
through use of
SELLS’ SARSAPARILLA.
This is a blood purifier that really puri
fies. Pure rich blood means buoyant
health. Be your best this year by giv
ing nature a little help.

LOST HIS LIFE
STRUGGLING IN WAVES.
Henry Kennedy Only Son Of Captain
Kennedy Of “Idaho” Fell From
Boat Above Augusta Saturday
And.Was Drowned—Body
Not Recovered.
Henry Ward Kennedy, the only
child of Captain O. H. Kennedy of the
steamboat “City of Idaho,” on Satur
day morning about 10:30 o’clock, when
the boat was under full headway up
stream, fourteen miles from Augusta,
fell from the deck into the turbulent
waters of White river, made rough by
high water and the waves created by
the big stern wheel of the boat.
The little fellow, only twelve years
of age, was knocked overboard by the
falling of a stack of shell sacks, but
bad presence enough of mind to swim
out of danger from being caught by
the wheel and had sufficient strength
to hold himself above the water for
over eight minutes. A row boat was
launched, but could not be handled
well owing to the rough water and
was only a few feet away when the
brave little fellow gave up his fight
with the billows and was submerged
in sight of his frantic parents and the
crew of the boat.
Four hours were spent in dredging
the river, but the remains were not
found and all day Sunday this work
continued, but to no avail, as the high
water makes dredging very difficult.
The City of Idaho proceeded to this
port, where her cargo was unloaded
and left Monday afternoon with dyna
mite for the scene of the drowning, in
charge of Capt. I. E. Russell.
The remains if recovered will be
brought here for burial. The father
and mother have the deepest sympa
thy of their many friends in the loss
of this beloved child, whose kindly
disposition and upright sincere char
acter made nim the object of affec
tionate regard upon the part of many

NATURE OF SURVEY
INDICATES CONSTRUCTION.
The acquisition of the Frisco by the
Rock Island would seem to favor
rather than retard the construction of
the fifty miles of surveyed railroad
between Pocahontas and Newport,
jrom the fact that the filling in of this
gap would furnish the Leeds system a
St. Louis-Little Rock line by way of
the St. Louis & Southeastern to Poca
hontas and from Newport to Little
Rock over the Choctaw.
On Saturday, the Frisco surveying
corps under charge of Engineer Robt.
Burgess, reached Pocahontas, after
completing from Newport one of the
most careful and precise surveys the
corps had ever been instructed to
make, requiring over six weeks and
covering only 50 miles. The distance
was measured from every section line
and the work was characterized by
such exactness, as can hardly be ex
plained, except upon the theory that
the road’s construction is a certainty.
Two surveys were made out of
Newport, one leaving Jacksonport to
the left and crossing Black river at
Elgin, a route shorter by five miles
tnan the other through Jacksonport,
which will bridge Black at Point
Ferry.
J. O. Turner was a member of tho
corps of surveyors and returned home
from Pocahontas, the others leaving
for San Antonio, Texas.
RIVER RISING SLOWLY.
White river is rising slowly, having
registered 20.4 feet on the guage Mon
day. From the Upper White, en
couraging reports have been re
ceived, as only .2 of foot rise was re
corded at Mount Olive Sunday night
and the river is on a stand at Devero.
From Batesville however, comes the
report that White is rising slowly and
the rains are said to have been heavy
on the head waters of Black river,
though that river is still on a stand at
Elgin. Without further rains, and the
cool weather makes them improbable,
White will hardty pass the 23 foot
mark on the local guage.
SCHOOL BOARD REORGANIZED.
At a meeting of the directors of the
Newport Public School Saturday
afternoon, a reorganization was ef
fected by the election of W. R.
Thompson, president; H. Bernstein,
secretary and Dr. C. West, treasurer.
The two members chosen at the re
cent election, R. F. Drummond and C.
West were present and took the oath
of office. The election of teachers for
the coming year was set for June 9.
W. W. McMinu spent Sunday in
Little Rock.
CARROLL D. WOOD
CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR.
Formal Announcement Of Intentions
Of Associate Justice—Ex-Senator
Jones Declines To Run—Hine
mon Has Other Bees In
His Bonnet.
Little Rock, Ark. May 31.—Associate
Justice Carroll D. Wood has author
ized the announcement of his candi
dacy for governor in opposition to
Gov. Davis, who is running for a third
term. Judge Wood says he will issue
a statement in a few days announcing
his platform and policy in the event
of his nomination and election.
SENATOR JONES DECLINES.
Rumors were flying thick and fast
in Little Rock today that ex-Senator
James K. Jones was about to an
nounce nis candidacy for governor
against Gov. Jeff Davis. A telegram
was received from Senator Jones
from Hope stating that he had lio
idea of running for governor and was
at a loss to know how the report
started.
HINEMON’S AMBITION.
State Superintendent J H. Hinemon
gave out the following statement:
“I have given the suggestion of my
candidacy for the office of chief ex
ecutive of our commonwealth careful
and deliberate consideration. While
I fully appreciate the solicitationsjind
kind assurances of support from
friends throughout the State, and
while I can conceive of no higher
honor than to be known as the edu
cational governor of Arkansas, yet I
feel impelled to yield to the wishes of
my teacher friends who have shown
me so many kindnesses, who have
joined me so heartily in my efforts in
behalf of the cause of public educa
tion, and who have urged me to re
main another term in the office I now
have the honor to hold. To settle
this matter so far as I am concerned,
I wish to say that I will not be a can
didate for governor at this time, but
that at the proper time I shall an
nounce my candidacy for re-election
to the office of State superintendent
of public instruction. I believe the
education of our children and the im
provement and development of our
public school system are questions of
paramount concern to all the people,
and to this cause I shall continue for
the present to give my best efforts
and energies.”
CONGRESSMAN LITTLE
NOT A CANDIDATE.
Hot Springs, Ark., May 31.—Editor
J. L. Wadley of the News is in receipt
of a letter from the Hon. John S.
Little, from which the following ex
tracts are taken, by courtesy of the
News:
“Your letter suggesting my candi
dacy for governor, also copy of the
News containing an editorial upon the
same subject, received. In reply 1
beg to assure you that I deeply ap
preciate the high endorsement you
give me, and appreciate more than all
else the statement that I have the
frit ship and confidence of the peo
in my old congres
di. id while I hold this
goou op’ a precious treasure, I
want to 6uy to you f rankly and can
didly, without any sort of evasion,
that I have no desire or intention of
becoming a candidate for governor at
our next state election, but it is my
purpose to be a candidate for re-elec
tion to congress at the proper time, if
my services have been satisfactory to
my constituents.”
