About fur p. M. Officer Stephens
got bis weather eye "onto" Harry Bowers
while going down Msin street. and unfor.
tunste!y Bowers also got his peppers on

dulge in little foo race. Bowers is def of
foot, but on straight track Stephens
might have caught him. Toe fugitive il
a good dodger, however, and there being
losS of alleys, board piles and other by ways

The Basket Picnic.

Another one of those occasions which go to make up the full measure of enjoyment and social culture took place on St. Johns day, the 24th inst, under the auspices of the Masonic fra ternity. The day, the occasion, the people, the discussions or speeches-all conspired to make 1t completely sue cessful as picnic. Tho programme was arranged in the best of taste, and the speakers could not have been more felicitous in thought or expression. Mai. Gee of Dardanelle who delivered the address of the occasion on the sub- feet ot Masonry showed himself thor oughly versed Tn Masonic literature, and an able expOunder of it's tenets and principles.
 Judge Davis was happy in his intro ductory remarks, and Bro. Wise cap- tured all hearts as he grew eloquent in his sphere as representative of the tenn perance cause. And to maintain the splendid connection all through "the feast of reason and flow of s0ul'' had no sooner ended than the feast of pies and things set in and the crowd broke up into groups and went at this busi- ness with alacrity and delight, and stayed there until many bone had been left to bleach on the barren plain, As the baskets began to be wrapped up and set away the candidate and bene- dict marshalIed their hosts and held the ground for the remainder of the day Not jar or discord in any way, shape or fashion, was by to mar the pleasures of rlle day. One of the most pleasant features of the day was the music furn. ished by the Dover Band. In behalf ol the committees and the people we ex. tend thanks to them. The band was composed as follows. J. F. Settle, lead CT; A. K. Linton and w. B. Rollow, Els comets; R. E. Hogins, lst Bs cor net. w. H. Rushing 2d Bs cornet, T. J Perryman 1st alto, w. I. Hicks 2d alto W. A. Baird. tenor, 1T. M.

 Ark1xs, June 26. 1T you will q
 Iow mo space in your cxcelIent jour |nnI xe would like to drop ! few thoughts to the young men of this and surrounding countries.
 l. If a young man should escort Q young Iady to church, after church see her safely 10 her home, and then desire to talk with her for . while
 would be just, right and admissablt
 most anywhere. But if the old latl,
 gently reminds her daughter that il is growing late by telling her that she must go to bed, the young mar should, without any murmuring ol making my threats, bid her adiet for the night.
 2. If some young men were tt walk into the parlor, with soms young ladies, on their return from church. they should remember .s''.:;s1 old folks do not l:...ss. l:....s e ss disturbed
 and if they were to hear the ringing of a bell. and the young ladies lool
 uncomfortable, the young men shoult take their leave at once and not wal for the second or third ringing Q the bell. 3. Now we come to tho last bu not feast. If two young men accom- pany two young ladies from church and remain with the young ladies un till eleven o'clock, and all at once the old man comes running, witt lamp in hand, out to the portict where you are seated, followed b]
 the old lady, and asks you to stay all night, take the hint, get you
 hats, tell your muchy muchys goot by and go home. Do not do, as VI
 have known some to do, stay until twelve, and then wish the old folk were not at home.
 We hope these few hints will b
 read closely by the young men o
 Atkins and Appleton. + these prov
 beneficial we can give you som
 more. $. q b.
