Sell Arkansas Apples Abroad
Bentonville, Aug- 29. —Capt.
George T. Lincoln, a well known
fruit grower of this section, has
received a letter from Clark &
Sinclair, fruit merchants and
commission agents of Dundee,
Scotland, asking him for a quo
tation of prices on winesap and
gano apples in car lots. The let
ter states that the firm has han
died apples direc from Canada
for some year.-, and is anxious \
to establisn a connection in the
states.
Several years ago the Ozark
Fruit Growers' Association, of
which Capt, Lincoln is president,
sent 100 cars of apples to Glas
gow, from which point they
were distributed over Europe.
They were packed with special
I
care and arrived in splendid con- j
dition. It is said that a number |
of them found their way to the j
tables of European royalty.
Captain Lincoln is now pack-,
ing five barrels of select apples
to be sent to the annual conven
tion of the American Bankers'
Association which convenes at
Boston. A barrel each of Ark
ansas Blacks, Grimes’ Golden,
Shannon Pippins, Maiden Blush
and Jonathans will be sent, and
an effort is being made at the
Lincoln farm to select the best
specimens of these varieties.
The fruit is being placed in
handsomely polished barrels,
specially made for this purpose
by the Bentonville Cooperage
Company. Each apple wili be
wrapped in paper, and many of
the apples will have “Lincoln"
placed on them by a stenciling
process used while the fruit is
ripening.

A Tammany Secret.
Pinehot explains why Tamany
has lasted so long as a political
force when it has committed so
many sins. He explains that in j
New York there is what is call
edd a “stuss" game, where peo
ple play and win or lose as chance
favors them, but they usually
lose. As at Monte Carlo and else
where no one is permitted to
leave the house dead broke. r,ach
is given a certain percentage of
his losings, great or small, and
what he receives in this refund
is called “viggrich”. Mr. Pin
chot claims that Tammany plays
the same game- Tammany robs
the public on expensive con
tracts, through the agency of
traction companies, through
bribery and graft; but it
never lets anyone go away en
tirely broke- It hands him a part
of what he loses in the way of
charities, entertainments, etc-,
pats him on the back and sends
him away with a cheerful good
by.—Memphis News-Scimitar.
Fire Department Frightens
Team.
Batesville, Aug- 28.—Wednes
day afternoon about 5 o’clock,
the fire team of horses ran
from the negro church beyond
the Methodist church to the
corner of Barnett Bros. Mer
cantile Co., where Will P. Jones
succeeded in in getting the team
checked, and probably saved the
lives of four children as well as
damage to the wagon and team.
Sam Farris, who drives the
team, had two of his little chil
dren on the wagon with him,
and two other little children,
none of whom were more than 12
or 14 years of age* He had left
the team standing on the street
facing the alley, when he went
in the alley to fix a hole that
had been out of order. When
* ' v ■ i
the team started lie saw the dust
rise, and that attracted his at- j
tention. He started after the
team, but it had gained head
way and there was no chance ;
for him to stop it.

What Good Roads Do.
Better roads will do more to I
cause prospectors from a dis
tance to come into Craighead
county and open farms in the
back townships than any other
inducement that could possibly
be offered. Most people who
come here to settle prefer to
buy the cheaper land and devel
op it, but if the roads are bad
and almost impassable when the
real estate man shows them over
the county, they are not much
impressed. Good road^ and
farm development are the keys
to Jonesboro’s future prosperity
The opportunity is ours and1
the time is now. Let us build
better roads and the newcomers
will be here this fall to investi
gate the many good reports they |
have heard about this county
from the Ohio bankers who were
here in February and from many
other sources of advertising
Let no man shirk his duty next
Wednesday. Either go out and
work or send some man in your
place.—Jonesboro Tribune.
May Die From Pool Ball.
Paragould, Aug. 29.—William
Wood, Jr., a well-known citizen
of Paragould, is lying at the
point of death and Toney Mc
Donald, son of one of the old
est families in Paragould, is
being held under a bond of $1,
000, charged with assault with j
intent to kill, as the result of |
a fight in a poolroom here yes
terday afternoon.
McDonald was a frequenter of
the poolroom against the orders
of Wood. Yesterday Wood ask
ed McDonald to get off one of 1
the tables . The latter refused., i
After making the request the j
third time Wood struck McDon- <
aid on the arm with a cue. Mc
Donald hurled a pool ball at

and fracturing the skull. Wood (

slight chances for recovery.
