4 galson mems meeting was called on
the night Of the 28th ult, at Little Rock,
says the Democrat, to devise some means
by which saloons may be opened on S Jun
day. It is claimed that some Salo ons
sell on Sunday through the back door on
the sly, which works a hardship upon
those that keep the Sabbath strictly.
Nearly all of the saloons in the city
were represented last night. One ele-
meDt thought that the Sunday law should
be enforced so strictly that street cars
and milk wagons would be stopped, there
by making the law odious. Another ell
ement wanted the saloons strictly closed;
another wanted thom opened and fight
the law boldly. As no agreement could
be reached, the meeting adjourned.

but he died in the small-pox epidemic of 1850 be-
fore he was year old. Then came two daugh-
ters, and the King began to be anxious about
the perpetuation of his line. The lordiy de-
meanor of the Queen and the royal mother-n-
law had raised up many enemies III the palace
and the royal astrologers secretly announced to
King Thebaw that there was spell thrown over
the 500 Payah-Lat, and that she would never
bear him an heir. Thereupon his Majesty took
TO himself the granddaughter of the khampat
Min. Gyee, the Secretary for Foreign Affairs,
and the daughter OF the Pehn-a Twin w oon
one of the four Ministers of the interior"
These ladies had to be shifted about from place
to place to escape the Vaccinations of the Of
Tended Queen. and eventually the latter was
discarded and the Min-Gyees granddaughter in
stalled in a wing of the palace under guard of
soldiery. Meanwhile, constant violent scenes
were witnessed in the palace between his Males
ty and the 500 Payah-Lat, and it was even re-
ported that he had wounded her, and that her
reproaches and violence had driven him to the
drinking bout of the beginning of the year.
The taunt that it was by her means that he had
succeeded to the throne, and that her dis
placement might result in his own fall,
does not seem TO have lost its effect with the
weak-minded Thebaw. AT any rate. he hesl-
tated to go to the extremity of casting her off.
and the consequence was that two perfectly dis
tinct and hostile parties came TO exist In the
palace. Chief of the southern Queens party,
and hand and glove with her Majesty. was the
1ayaouHR rlnce Inc ieduiHs splrtt Vi INC pdiace
massacre of 1879, for which service he gained his
title With him were all the most notorious cham
pons of the national party and haters of the
English. They entirely bound up with the
Soo-Payah-Lat and her disgrace must inevitably
result in their ruin, so that they took most di-
rect interest in the Kings marrying new
queen. During severe illness of Thebaw they
schemed for the succession of the Nyoung yam
Prince TO the throne but this it seems was d.
vulged and brought about their downfall The
baw got wind of the intrigues, and summarily
settled the question by clappine the whole party
in jail The Nyoung Yam Prince died or com
mitted suicide there. The Penn alvin Woon.
who, through chagrin at the discarding of his
daughter. had joined the Soo-Payah Lat party,
was executed with number of minor officials.
In the last few years Thebaw has not permitted
the crimson character of his glory to dim.
