LIKES THE AMERICAN COMPA
NY'S PRESS
An Arkansas Firm Used it Last Sea
son With Great Satisfaction
J
A. .1. Clements, ol the firm of Clements
<fc Danial, cotton ginners of Lonoke, Ark.,
was in the city yesterday. Mr. Clements
was seen by a Commercial Appeal repre
sentative in the office of the American
i Cotton Company, in the Continental build
ing, and he talked very enthusiastically
of that company's Roundlap bale press,
which he has been operating at his gin the
past season. He compressed about 4,000
bales on his Roundlap bale press, and the
cotton was all sold at tlie press at Mem
phis prices. Mr. Clements says that a
Roundlap bale from the American Com
pany’s press will net from $2.50 to $3.00
more than from the old press. In fact, a
tanner a few months ago, made a test of
the matter, bringing the exact number of
pounds of the same quality to Mr. Clem
ents that he did to a square bale press,
without letting either gin know lie was
making the test, and the Roundiap bale
netted just $3.75 more than the square
bale.
Mr. Clements says that one season has
satisfied him of the merits of tlie American
Company’s Roundlap bale press. It is a
good thing be says, both tor the ginner
and the farmer, and his firm will continue
its use and abandon its other press en
tirely.—Commercial Appeal, Memphis,
Tenn.
Supreme Court Decisions-
Since Chas. O. Tyner began the manu
facture of Tyner's Dyspepsia Remedy,
many peoolc have inquired as to its effica
cy. Chief Justice Bleckley, of Georgia,
has tried it for indigestion and dyspepsia,
and gives this as his decision:
“Atlanta, Ga., March 14, 1894.—Chas
O. Tyner, Atlanta, Ga.: I have used, and
am now using, Tyner’s Dyspepsia Reme
dy. It is a mental as well as a physical
elixir. With its aid and a pair of specta
cles I can frequently see the law in spite
of unsuitable or too much diet.
“Logan E Bleckley.”
This is a splendid decision and people
are profiting by it.

Tod Sloane’s ganieuess will never be
questioned by those who saw him win a
race on Walter in a nose finish at the
old East St. Louis track some years
ago. After tho race Tod was hardly able
to dismount. Then it was learned that
he bad broken an arm in the race. It
seems that be was crowded against the
fence in a jam around one of tlie turns
and broke his arm. Switching the reins
to his good arm, he rode tho race out
witii great determination, putting up a
‘‘Garrison finish” and winning on the
post by the narrowest possible margin.
It was an exhibition of gameness the
like of which was never before heard of
in the history of the American turf.—
