ARevolting Report from Arkansas.

HELENA, Mar 19.-Latest advices from the
upper st. Francis river are that the people OF
that section are almost reduced to cannibalism.
They have eaten carcasses for some days and
how have all the appearance of about to be-
come insane from starvation.
Col A a. johnson, President of the Arkan-
sas Midland railroad, returned today from Hot
Springs. He came down by skiH to Helena
from the mouth of st. Francis river. He says
the scene along the route is most distressing,
and the stencil of dead animals revolving, and
when the waters decline it must be still more
fearful.
The earth is left covered with thick Shiny
substance of reptiles of every kind and the
smell and miasma produced from drying snb-
stances must inevitably be serious in its con-
sequences.

Villianous Incaadiary i.

Some time between Saturday even
ing and Monday morning last, an at
tempt was made to set fire to the
extensive brewery in this city owned
by Messrs. Jacob Lutz s. Bro, but
fortunately failed. The dastardly viii
lain whitfield some shavings and plac-
ing them near the east side of the
building on the sawdust banking. also
placed a short piece of plank over
the shavings, apparently for the pur
pose of concealing the fire long enough
to make good his escape. then
applied the match Fortunately the
sawdust was so damp that the blaze
went out. The boys discovered the
spot Monday, it being near the ice
house door Why Messrs. j. Lutz
& Bro. should be made objects of
spite can only be accounted for from
the fact that they are insisting on
keeping the law on Sunday and a few
roughs who want to run the brewery
as it was once. when free fights were
of daily occurrence. This they will
not do. Parties on whom rest sus-
picions are being watched closely and
it is hoped the guilty one will yet be
found. These gentlemen are doing
a great deal for the city in way of
permanent improvements and should
be encouraged. Strictly honest and
public spirited men such as the above
named are always help rather than
a hindrance. The .cowardly villain
who made this attempt at firing the
brewery is probably not so foolish as
to try a second attempt.

proves too late. Take advice and

asthma, whooping cough, Group, infu-
enza, bronchitus, pains in the chest
