LIKES THE AMERICAN PRESS. Ad Arkansas Firm lined It I.nst ge-ssoii With Great Satisfaction. From the Commercial Appeal, Memphis,'J *mi. A. J. Clements, of the firm of Clem ants & Daniel, cotton ginners of Lonoke, Ark., was in the city yesterday. Mr. Clem uts was seen by a Commercial Appeal r<; ■ >'■ sentative in the office of the American Cotton Company, in the Continental build¬ ing, and lie talk« 1 very enthusiastically of that company’s Roundlap bale press, which he has been operating at bis gin the past season. He compressed about 4,<)fio bales on bis Roundlap bale press, and tin, cotton was all sold at the press at Memphis prices. Mr, Clements says that a Roundlap bale net from from the fLOT American .$3.1)0 Company’s mor&jjp^'-ft prewjfljl to the >’ . W ■■ p »i;3. lit foci, a f. ewfmrf months ago, made a test of the bringing the exact number of pounds of the same quality to Mr. Clements that he did to a square bale press, without lett'ng either gin know he was making the lest, and the Roundlap bale nettted just 0-5 75 more than the square hale. Mr. Clements says that one season has satisfied him of the American Company’s Roundlap bale press. It is a good tiling he says, both for the ginner and the far¬ mer ami his firm will continue its use and abandon its other press entirely. Has Passed Away. Mrs. J.R. Evans passed peacefully away, Sunday June 4, after being sick two weeks. She was one of the most beautiful characters we ever knew. She was a Christian woman, and t lie devotion to her husband and child was very beautiful. She was a woman whose life was spent in making the lives of those around her brighter and happier, and will be very much missed by a large, circle of relatives and friends whose grief can oenly be known by those who have passed through such sorrow. It was a pleasuae to both young and old to visit there, she entertained her company in such a pleasant common sense way that all looked forward to any thing she was to give. In the gloom and desolation of the hour a pretty little babe is the only solace of a grief stricken family. It bas been denied the greatest of God’s blessings—the refin¬ ing influence of a mother’s care. We wish to extend our heart felt sym pathytothe bereaved husband The deceased was Miss Bertha Maltble, leaving besides her husband and little one, a mother, a si star and a brother who are bowed in grief.

It seems that the general public are becoming very much alarmed about the numerous trusts and combines which are certainly assuming perilous proportions. But it is not trust that w* most fear. It is tire comebined forces of the vast multi¬ tude of loafers and dead beats that this country is in most danger of. There are some folks who complain at both dry and wet weather: In fact they have become chronic grumblers aud do little else. To such we commend the words of the poet when he says: Be ready when the days are bright, To labor with a will, till night, But when it storms from morn Be wise and patient still; descend, The winds must blow, the rains Till brooks their banks overflow; Contentment is a priceless friend— We harvest as we sow; His Life Was Saved.
