and white hung from the chandelier to
the walls, and a beaulitulnialte.se cross
with “E It.'' containing a latiu cross
around which were circumscribed the
words "All for Clnist," was over toe

The delegates began to arrive Wed

were ^nearly all here. The reception
column lee met the trains and took the
Mailing Leaguers to the homes ot our
citizens, who endeavoied in every pos
sible wav to hospitably entertain them.
Thursday night the church was well
idled, when the meeting was called to
order by Joel E. Wynne, president ot
the local League. The visitors were
welcomed to the city by the Hon. O. li.
Kollwage, in the eloquent and agreea
ble manner so characteristic ot him.
llev. N. It. Fixer then welcomed the
delegates in behalf of the church, after
which .Joel E. Wynne, in behalf of the
Epworth League of Forrest City, wel

sponses were made by Ltev. \V. M.

the meeting; Joe Wynne announced
the program for the follow ing day, and
the Hireling closed with the benedict
ion by the llev. Jas. Thomas, of Little
ltnck.
l lie services in.lay morning con
sisted chiefly in reports from the
various Leagues and addresses from
League workers. The reports showed
the organization in good condition.
Friday afternoon, Uev. Jas. Thomas
made a short address upon the .Junior
League, after which the body began
business it: earnest. .Joei L. Wynne,
of Ibis'city, was elected president of
the District League by a unanimous
vote. Miss Margaret Carter, of Cotton
l*!ant. was elected secretary; Claren- j
dun was chosen as the place tor hold- j
mg llie* next meeting. A very enter
taining program was rendered in the
evening.
After the League meeting was over,
a reception was held at the home ol
Mr. and Mrs. .1. W. Leek. Refresh
ments were served, beautiful recita
tions rendered, and delightful music
was played by the city baud. The
evening was pleasantly spent by all
present, and profuse were the expres
sions of every, ue.
in the morning session, Saturday,
many short addresses were listened to
by an attentive audience. The visiting
delegates offered and passed the fol
lowing resoint ions:
lies lived, That we, as members of
the Epworlh League.Confereiioe ot the
Helena district, extend our lieaity
t hanks, and express our high appre
ciation of the unstinted manner in
which the local chapter of the Epworlh
League and the citizens of Forrest
City have received us in their homes
and to their hearts; also to the general
passenger agent of the Little Hock and
Memphis railroad, and to Tills Foil
ltKsT City Ti.mk- and the band tor
special courtesies.
Resolved. That we will hold them up
before our Father's throne in grateful
remembrance of their kindness.
Resolved. That we have listened
with pleasure and profit to the wise
words and safe counsel of our visiting
brethren from Little Rock and Mem
phis. and that we cold i all j invite them
to visit us again.
Addresses, short speeches, and lively
discussions were on the program for
Saturday afternoon, and it was well
carried out- The exercises for the eve
ning brought out an audience that
crowded the house to its utmost ca
pacity. The music and recitations
were excellent.
Sunday morning and evening Dr.
W. K. ilamuer, pastor of the Central
Methodist church in Memphis, preached
two excellent sermons in the Methodist
church.
During the progress of the confer
ence. .loci E. Wynne edited and had
published daily a neat little paper
called the ‘'Daily Epworth Star,” in
which accurate accounts of the pro
ceedings were published. The Star
was an excellent publication, and Mr.j
’—-' ,-7x * -v
Wynne and l|is assistant* deserve great
credit-tor t!|e conception and consum
niHtioil of so good o plan as Mint of is
Hiiring the paper. It displaced origi
nality and was conclusive y;,nnf that
the ftp worth League of our city em
braces the most energetic of oar young
people.
The choir music throughout tire ses
sion was grand. No other adjective
will properly descritie it. Our city has
reasot* iso he proud of its musical tal
ent. All of the chinches have very
good choirs, hut when tliev are massed
into one grand choir, the music is sub
lime.
The delegates and visitors were ap
parently highly pleased wit!\ our city
and the hospitable reception they met.
Deafness Cannot Be Cured
Ky loanl upplinations as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only owe wivy to cure Uealivess, anil that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition of Ihe
mucous lining of the eustachiau tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing. and
wlien it is entireiv closed deafness is the
result, ami unless the inflammation can
lie taken out and this tube restored to its
normal sondition, hearing will l>e destroy
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an intlalut'd condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot lie cured bv Hall s Catarrh
Cure. Send tor circulars; tree.

The Gun and Rod Club
An enthusiastic meeting of the St.
Francis County Gun ami Hod Club
was held at 10 o'clock Tuesday at the
office of Treasurer Jv T. Gray in this
city. The secretary was instructed to
ascertain the names of all county of
ficials in the line of counties north
and south along t he St. Francis river
and mail them such matter as is now
in the possession of the club with re
quests to at once establish similar
eliilis in their county for the protection
of lish and game as far as our present
law prescribes.
The rapid growth in membership of
this club expiesses the sentiment
that they mean business. And
there is no doubt that within
thirty days clubs will be formed
in all the ten counties that flank tlie
St. Francis river and with the enforce
ment of the present laws, in a short
while the river and lakes will teem
with lish and ’he woods and Helds be
tilled with game.
It has been reported, by those who
do not know the law. that the object of
the club would work a hardship on
those who lish for a livelihood, finite
to the contrary would the enforcement
of the law bring about. The greatest
latitude is allowed by the law. and the
stoppage of illegal nets, dynamiting,
closing runways, etc., would give the
young fry a chance and allow tlie lish
to spawn. It has been explained to
several fishermen in our county and
they joined the club with a willingness
and earnestness to see that the law is
carried out. The club solicits corres
pondence from all who desire to attain
the observance of the law.
The U. S. Kish Commissioner prom
ises to put half million young lish,
yearly for live years, in the St. Francis
l iver, if the laws are observed and the
lish protected. This should stimulate
everybody to renewed energy in that
direction.
When Nature
Needs assistance it may best to render
it promptly, but one should remember
to use even the most perfect remedies
only when needed. The best and most
simple and gentle remedy is the .Syrup
of Figs, manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Company.
GOLDEN^*
^HEDICAL^
DISCOVERY.
The invention of Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief
consulting physician to the Invalids’ Hotel
and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y.,
has, during the past thirty years, made a
record in the cure of bronchial, throat and
lung diseases that fairly entitles it to out
rank all other advertised remedies for these
affections, lispecially has it manifested its
potency in curing consumption of the lungs.
Not every case, but we believe
Fully 98 Per Cent.
of all cases of consumption, in all its earlier
stages, are cured by Dr. Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with copious expectoration (includ
ing tubercular matter), great loss of llesli
and extreme emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported tons as cured by “ Golden Med
ical Discovery ” were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease ? You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and .most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial of "Golden Medical Discovery,"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy " emulsions ” and
mixtures, had hem tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene
fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the liypophos
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of a large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of 1000 pages
which will be mailed to you, on receipt of ad
dress and at cents in stamps to cover post
age and wrapping only. You can then write
those cured and learn their experience.
