The author deals with the VrXed pues-

not charity, but fairness and fairness

THE USUAL WAY.

This world is very funny,
For no matter how much money
Man is earning he will spend it and be
hard up all the time.
To his utmost he is stralning
To catch up without attaining,
Till he makes his life burden when it
should he bliss sublime.
He who earns Thousand merely
Thinks two thousand yearly
Would be just about the figures to make
happiness complete;
But his income when it doubles
Only multiplies his troubles,
For his outgo then increasing makes his
both ends worse to meet,
1t is run in debt and borrow,
Flush to day and broke tomorrow
Financiering every way to postpone the
day Of doom;
Spending money ere he makes it,
And then wondering what takes it,
Till he, giving up the riddle, looks for
rest within the tomb.
Oh this world il very funny
To the average man whose money
Doesn't quite pay for the dancing that
he does before he should;
And he kills himself by trying
Just little higher lying
Than is suited for his pocket and his own
eternal good.

Thought That the Assassins Of
Hon, John M, Clayton
CAN BE EASILY LOCATED.
A Circumstances Which Seems to
Confirm the, Charge That the
Murder Was the Result or

LITTLE RooEi ARK, Feb, ls,-There Is
little doubt from the facts that have como
to light within the past few days, that
the assassius Of Col, j, NJ. Clayton are
known, and that before long they will
be in the clutches Of the law. 1t Is now
definitely ascertained that after the ar.
rest ofcertain citizens Of Conway county
by the authorities for unlawful interier-
enCe with a federal election, oyertures
were made to the Republican State Cen
tral Committee for compromise by
which the prosecution Of the 1--WE parties
would be dropped or settledby nomi-
nal fine, on the grounds that restitution
was to be made in tho way OF
certain afIldayits to be made
by the Judges OF Election in Howard
township OF Conway county that would
disclose the true vote Of that box. The
overtures were first made TO John NJ.
Clayton himself through the medium OF
a well known Republican OF Conway
county. This party was by Col, Clayton

was referred, alter considering the mat

The representative OF the parties at
Morrilton returned to that point, feeling
that the agreement would be satlsiac.
tory, and stating to q friend OF Colonel
Olaytbn's in Little Rock that he believed
that thisa agreement would save Clayton's
life. When the representative arrived
at Morrilton, the parties for whom he had
been treating refused to comply with
the terms Of tho compact because
the reward OF $1,000 had not been
withdrawn, They were not satis-
fed and were disagreed on what
action to take. Beyond this
nothing Is known OF the conclusions
reached by the Morrilton parties, but 1t
Is certain that on that night two men
went from Morrilton to Plummorville.
It is a conjecture whether these men
carried instructions from Morrilton, but
sometimes circumstantial evidence Is
strong enough to convince ordinary
minds, and the circumstances OF their
going and their movements on that
night are well known, and only omitted
in the information given that Justice
may not be frustrated.
