LIKES THE AMERICAN

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.
