TExARKANA, ARK, June 2S--Mr.
Hiram J. Allen, accompanied by his
charming daughter, Mise jamie, is vis-
lting friends and relatives here. Mr..
Allen lie prominent lumberman and
formerly lived here, but for the past
year has been located at Queen City.

II. church, South, at Little Rock, is in
the city en- route on business trip TO
Fort Worth. He Is very young
man, but "old for his years. He
formerly lived here and enjoyed but
few educational and social advantages.
Now, however, after connection OF
only five years with the university, he
has state reputation as being one Of
the leading preachers In the Little

Drought In verdict In favor Of the
plaintiffs for $1,000. The
suit was brought more than
a year ago, the claim Of the plaintiffs
amounting TO SIS, 900. Soon after the
suit was filed trial was had, in which
the jury awarded verdict for $4,000 In
favor OF the plaintiff. Being dissatis.
fled with this, the latter sought and
were granted new trial, the one COM
ing up at this term, and came out at
the second "mile post" $500 woree Off
than ut the first trial. To add to their
misfortune, it now seems the railroad
has caught the inspiration and asks
the court for new trial, "allesamee"
as the plaintiffs did the last time.
This the court, however, has not as
yet acted upon.
A negro man and his wife living

brooded over the matter the more de-
termlned they became to force the
nearest them. Their movements soon
attracted lattention, but nothing was
said to them for several days. The
dusky couple construed this into an
act OF encouragement on the part nf
the whites, and at once began to
crowd the monkey" to such an extent
that patience ere long ceased to be a
virtue. so n few nights ago the pair
of ambitious 'coons" was rudely
taken from their bed Of slumber, led u
