TALBOTT, a7 17, HIS FETTERS REMOVED. ee Unpleasant Habits of Arkansas Censor of the Press. —~eo. Buckshot Shoal (Ark.) Maul and Wedge Jim Beasley, the man who has tor several vears made the newspaper business uncomfortable, not to say dangerous, in this flourishing city, is dead. He was a man ot peculiar disposition and was a sort of censor of the press. structions He never gave in- betorehand as regards what would please or displease him, but shortly atter the paper was pub- lished. should anything in it offend him, he would come around and make his presence exceedingly disa- greeable. Jim was a very capricious man. Sometimes he would excuse the broadest sort of a statement; frequently he would become enraged at the merest trifle. He did not like | humor and was not an admirer ot | the prthetic. One time we wrote a joke about a fellow whose oxen ran away, having scented water while thirsty, and tumbled off a_ bluff. The item was very laughable, put Mr. Beasley did not laugh. He caine to our office and told us that any man who would make fun of a yoke ot poor, unfortunate oxen ought to be kicked. Then Mr. Beasley kicked us. We are nota man to take the halter off our passions and let them gallop unrestrained, so we said nothing. We are not a fool. We knew that it stood us well in hand to keep on the good side of Mr. Beasley and look out tor an op- portunity of attempting to please him. The opportunity came in the death ot an old man. We wrote a pathetic article, and when the paper had been sent out we, in a satisfied condition of mind, sat down and waited for Mr. Beasley to come around and congratulate us. He came, but did not congratulate. He said that anybody that would slobber over the death of an old skinflint who ought to have died years ago needed kicking. Then Mr. Beasley kicked us. These incidents are giv- en merely to show how difficult it has been to satisfactorily run a news- paper in this city. and to illustrate what a reliet it must be to announce that Mr. Beasley is dead. He died slowly and with marked reluctance, but he is no more, and it gives us pleasure to announce that the Maul and Wedge will hereafter be a tear- less journal. Our fetters are removed.

The report of the Missouri Regis- ter Lands tor the last two years shows that in 1885 there were home- steads and other entries ot United States lands made: At Boonville, 11,531 acres: at Ironton, 25,864 acres, and at Springfied, 36,048 acres. In 1886the entries were: At Boonville, 13,854 acres; at Ironton’ 26,638 acres, and at Springfield, 31,657 acres—making a total ‘ot 145,594 acres entered in the two years. It will be interesting to many persons to know that there are still remaining in Missouri 1,067,405 acres of United States lands subject to homestead entry and purchase at $1.25 per acre, In the same period 19,628 acres ot township school land were sold at an average price of about $1.90 per acre. These lands belong to the township schoql tunds of the counties in which they are respectively located, and the re- sult of the sales was to add $37,709 to these tunds. There are 217,973 acres of these lands still unsold in the counties. In 1850 Congress gave to the State all the so-called swamp and overflowed lands remaining un- sold within its limits at that time, and ever since the State has been disposing of them to purchasers.

About three miles trom Princeton, Ky, on the Wilson Warehouse road, in a bend of the Stevens creek, marshy flat about an acre The earth is of a greenish color, and ro weed or grass ot any kind was ever known to grow in it, y,| and during the dryest season 1s al- ways wet. Old Uncle Peter Black, a native of the Donaldson district, | came to town last August (election day), and, according to his habit | with jovial friends, drank too much. i} | his way home. | Uncle Pete. Late that evening he saddled his old gray mule and attempted to wend When the rider and the old gray mule came to the creek, either by the obstinacy ot the mule or by some mystic hand, the old ; | animal went into the marsh and spilt The sott, damp earth proved a soothing balm to the bald, aching head of the old man, and the excitement of the day was soon for- gotten in a dreamless sleep, from which he was awakened next morn- ing by the heat of the sun, to fina half ot his head and left side covered with mud. About two weeks after the accident Uncle Pete found that all that part of his body that had been covered with mud was covered with a fine growth ot young hair. St. Valentine’s day he came to town and showed to a number ot our most prominent men a luxuriant growth ot hair three and one-halt inches in length, covering his left side and half of his head. At first his story was laughed at, but since a bald head is a source of great annoy- ance to the owner, a few thd were sensitive on the loss ot hair began to view it in a different light, For the past two weeks about twenty are wearing skull caps inlaid with this muck. Yesterday several took off their caps, and to their joy and hap- piness their heads were covered with a fine growth of young hair, but un- fortunately :t was red as a beet. The owner of the marsh has had it inclosed by a high plank tence, and sells the muck at $2 a pound, and the demand is becoming so great that he can scarcely fill all the orders.

Otthese, twenty-eight made affidavit that they owned no more property than the law allowed them, thus preventing attachment. Then under decision of the Supreme court, they were arrested for petit larceny and bound over in the sum of $300 each. All but six gave bonds, those went to jail. The new postal law makes it petit larceny to take a news- paper and refuse to pay for it.”’ How to get Strong.
