Money Out of Their Own Pockets.

The following appeared Tn the Arkansas news in the Memphis Ay- alanchs of last Sunday:
 It IS state secret, but a fact nev- erthelcss, that Gov. Eagle has toen paylng out of his own pocket, there being no such fund provided by the state, for two detectives to hunt down the assassin of John M. Clay ton. This fact came up during Il conversation between Gov. Eagle and Hon (. R. Breekinridge yes terday, aud the little Congressman went down in his pocket and pulled out every cent of money he had and asked that it be appropriated for the same cause, requesting that nothing be said about it. The mat ter leake ed out some how and when Gov. Eagle was asked about it to- day he refused to say anything, but afterwards admitted it and sad that it was his special desire that no one know 1t as both of them simply wanted the criminal hung and that " s all. The detectives feel certain that they will soon have their evidence in such shape that arrests will take plaee.

The Band Concert.
ocrat.

Inc Danu concert.
 Long before tbe opening pietorm- aucs of the band concert Friday night the public school building be- gan to fill up with the good and hb- eral hearted people of Springdale, and by o'clock it was filled to all most oyerflowing. The people of Springdsle have a good band, and bless their dear hearts, when it is necessary they are always ready and willing to show their apprecia- tion Tn a substantial manner.
 1 shall endeavor to go oyer each performance and tell the truth about 1t as near IS 1 can. This is my first effort at thing of this kind, and ifthere is deficiency anywhere l hope the NEWS readers will bear with me.
 The first thing on the program was music by the SpringdaIe Band. The piece selected for the opening was difficult overture, composed by H. G. Frankentield, but our boys proved equal to the occasion. They played it in fine shape, bringing out the piano parts and making 8 splendid effect.
 The song by the entire company was very good.
 l he recitation by Miss Berth a Lininger was one of the best things of the evening. I don't know how to pay her any higher compliment than to say she performed her part in just as fine manner as could pos sibly have been done.
 The male quartette was tolerably good.
 The song and chorus was nice.
 The stump speech by Hugb Phil ips was recited in good shape, By proper training Hugh will make q good speaker.
 The serenada by our home band was played equally as geod as the overture.
 The recitation hy Katie Renner was as good as could be. She was dressed in cloths much too large for her, and was just too Cute for anything.
 The song, "Three black crows" was very nice.
 The selection by Lowell Band WAS omitted, that organization hav- ing failed to appear.
 The recitation by Miss Jessie Gulley was rendered ln very good shape. The piece was very boauti- tul.
 The next was song quartette which was very good.
 The selection by the Cross Roads Band was excellent. It was a sur prise to every one when they heard it, and the boys play extremel ly well to have no more practice.
 The declamatlon by ". NJ. Wright was entirely too long and besides it was not thoroughly msmorized. Will, by proper training though will make speaker, hose oratori- cal powers will distint the eyerlast- in. sleep of Demorthenes.
 The composition of o. E. Gully created considerable laughter but on the whole was quite ridiculous. The audience would much rathOr have heard Air. Gulley deelaim as he : an excellent speaker.
 The last piece on the program the duet by Mr. II. \. Wagner and Miss Anrle Lowdermilk was decided the best thing of the evening. Miss Lawdermilk IS an excellent SO prano singer and whom eombihed with the voice of MT. Wagner makes fine mu- sic. Haerins this song an appaocia tive listener sent Miss Lowdermilk a beautiful bouuet
 A Il the performers were liberally encored and every one present deci- ded that it was the best concert ev. CT given by the band.

rlages and wagons into which they
were placed and Immediately driven
to the asylum two miles northwest

Miss Alice HardawaY were united
in holy wedlock by Rev. S. L. jew
ell at the Methodist church in Boil

The fair bride entered the church
by the lett aisle leaning upon the
arm of her friend, Miss Mamie Pr
lie of MedOn, and preceded by the
ushers, Messrs j. H. Bills and @. s.
Gaudeu. Up the right aisle came
L. P. Men cal and Joseph Green
baum, in rear of whom came the
gallant groom resting upon the arm
of his brother, Charles Newbern.
Taking their places in front of the
altar the contracting parties were
made man and wife. Miss Lucy
Anderson presided at the organ
rendering the wedding march IN most
impressive style. The beautiful
ceremony was most solemplY per-
formed by Rev. Mr.. Jewell in a few
well chosen words and the bride and
groom left the church while the or
gan pealed forth its sweetest notes.
Entering carriages they were driv~
en- to the depot and took the morn
ing train for a short wedding tour.
The church never looked loYller.
Handsomely decorated, the pulpit
banked with rarest flowers and on
either side worked IN evergreens the

couple every conceivable happiness

Mr.. John 7. Norment and Mrs.
SalIie NormeEt were quietly united
in marriage last Wednesday even
ing in Bolivar at half past seven
o'clock, Rev. S. L. Jewell, of the
Methodist church officiating. The
marriage was private and was quite
a surprise to their large circle of
friends, all of whom, the BULLETIN
included, extend congratulations
and wish them long life of joy and
happiness.

Bolivar last Saturday having in his
poss eslon a fine suit of clothes that
would fit large sized man. Up
on inquiry the hoy stated his cousin

sneak had stolen Abe BoWden's

answer for his crime.
The quack doctors and the
lightning rod men are about to
break the country up. The FORM
er 60 to the poor and ignorant and
with professions of great skill in
their calling and false representa-
tiOns to the patients induce them to
put themselves under their
treatment. Of course a sick
man will agree to give all he has to
be cured, and the guacks manage
to take notes for their fees. These
notes they trade off to third parties
at big discount and then leave the
patient To suffer while they skip the
country. We called attention to
this outrage in former issue. It
is a gross violation of the law and
should be punished. The other
class, the ligh thing rod men, descant
by the hour to the country people
about the dangers of lightning aud
the absolute protection % which
their rods afford. And then they
have little gilded weather cocks and
spears to top of the lightning rods
with. The farmer is thus induced
to give his note and the lightning
rod man sells the note. Half the
negro cabins in the county are
with these rods which in
most instances are disadvantage
because they attract the lightning
and beng generally out of position
or in contact with the house, and
not properly insulated, the danger
from lightning Is increased. Many a
poor fellow has paid more tor a use-
less lightning rod than his cotton
crop was worth.

no crowd would congregate about
the depot. But when it was learn
ed that all the available vehicles
were engaged to be at the railroad
station at three o'clock the rumor
that the lunatics were expected at
that hour spread all over town and
a crowd of four or five hundred peO-
pie were on hand. A guard had
however been provided consisting
of the mayor, marshall, sheriff and
a few special deputies, who kept the
crowd back from the depot plat
torn and the unfortunate insane
were quietly and safely transferred
from the cars to the vehicles in
waiting, when with the guards,
nurses and baggage they were TAX
en- to their permanent quarters at
the new asylum.
The officials deserve credit for
the methods adopted and their sue
cess IN removing so speedily and
safely such a large mum Der of in
sane people. There we're in all about
one hundred and seventy. We no.
ticed only three who we're in straigt
jackets. The sexes were about
equally divided and there seemed TO
be very few young persons among
them. Nothing occurred to excite
them and they were very tractable.
They presented pitable spec
tacle indeed. Their condition un-
der any circumstances is calculated
to arouse the tenderest sensibilities
of the human heart.
Some were made crazy by relig-
iOus excitement, some by inherited
insanity, some by bad health and
grief. They Will be provided with
everything that can conduce to their
health and comfort IN their new
quarters.
The insane who are confined in
the various jails and m-houses in
West Tennessee Will now be brought
here TO the asylum. We under
stand there are as many as seventy
of this unfortunate class in Shelby
some Of whom are to be brought here,
and doubtless the other counties have
a proportionate number who have
been awaiting the completion of the
buildings preparatory to removal.
