 Ozark Democrat: Rev. Wm. Sisk died at this place January l5..... Engine 933, was wrecked half mile west of Ozark, Tuesday morning at about 5 o'clock. An immense rock had slipped from above ard landed on the track. The engine left the track as soon as it struck the rock, carrying with it the tender and two coal cars loaded. The engine and tender were badly smashed. The fireman leaped from the engine as it went surging down the precipice and he escaped unhurt. The engineer, William Voss, one of the oldest and best engineers on the road, was bur jed beneath his engine, within few feet of the rivers edge. Doubtless he was killed instantly. His body was dug out and the coroner held an inquest over it. The east bodnd pas senger was delayed about three hours the track having been repaired by 3 o'clock. Why the rock was not d!s- covered before running against it, is not known, so far as we know; and why the engineer did not jump for his life is also somewhat Of a mys- tery. We suppose it was just one of those mysterious calamlties that are constantly occurring everywhere.

 Dardanelle Post: All the family of Mir. J. H. Bell left last week for Denmark Tenn, to make their home with an aunt. Mir. Bell we still have with us. -. Judge Jscoway was up in Logan county last week in the in terest of our railroad. He said that Bush was going ahead stalking out the road but that unless the required amount is subscribed by the time the engineers reach Dardanelle, he would drop it. ... Saturday night big dance and sociable was given at Maschek's house on the road to Nebo. While the festivities were at their height, lot ot the boys from town appeared upon the scene. They insisted on being invited in, which was done and given few dances. When supper time arrived the town boys were notified that the beer cost money, and if they wanted any, they would have to chip in and gay for it, Some of the boys put in dime or two and beer and jokes were passed around promiscuously. Before the party broke up an old Bohemian named Singula was set upon knock ed down, beaten and cut in several places infiicting very painful wounds. Jack Baty, Harve Alley and Virge Smith skipped away to Little Rock, where they were captured, and brought back, to answer for their misdoings.

There was the very fair attendance OF
tWcnty-six members at the monthly
meeting of the Y. NJ. "a. Hon. Henry
Warehouse, President, occupied the
chair, and Mr.. w. F. Forbes, Recording
Secretary, Mr.. T. s. Southwlck, Treas
urer, and Mr.. S. d. Fuller, General
Secretary, were present.
The Treasurer reported a balance Of
$166 90 in hand The sum of 50 was
collected at the meeting, There was the
handsome amount of $75 turned in by
the ladies of Central Union Church,
being the proceeds of their lunch given
that dav. These additions increased the
funds to $3.50 90. 1t was reported that
81, 900 was already pledged by members
to the Association for the current year,
but, handsome as this Is, another 81 900
is wanted.
Committees had little to report, as,
since the annual meeting, they had
scarcely had time to more than organize.
There was discussion about getting an
evangelist here for season. The man
desired is Rev. Mr. PentecOst, but Mr..
Stebbins and Mr.. Currie, famed also as
revivalists, were mentioned. The whole
matter was reIegated to the devotional
committee.
Rev. MIR. Westervelt, the newly ar
rived missionary to the Hawaiian peO-
pie from the American Board, was
called upon for remarks. He praised
the excellent organization, being not
sure that, in methods of work, this AssO-
citation did hot surpass anything of the
kind East. However, he was to be one
of them, therefore reserved further ex-
preston of his views The meeting
closed with tho hymn, "Blest be the
tie" and the benediction from Rev. DIR.
Beckwith.

Music for the Young Folks.

On a pleasant moonlight evening, last
week, a musical entertainment was
gotten up by Mr.. Pakana, one Of our old
residents living on the plain east of the
city. 1t comprised a quartet Of stringed
instruments, and the musicians were
native Hawaiians, mostly half-whites,
whose instrumental performances and
English and Hawaiian songs furnished
a rich treat to those who were there.
The music was really of a high order,
perhaps not SO finished as that provided
at the Opera House, but both music and
singing were very sweet and greatly
enjoyed by the audience which filled the
two large parlors. The entertainment
was prepared by Mr.. Pakana for the
amusement of the children of the family
and for the neighbors and friends, who
crowded in till the rooms OverfOwed,
and shows how much pleasure may be
afforded by little tact and skill. Those
who were spectators need not to be in
formed that "Mr. Pakana" is Frank
Spencer, one of our oldest residents,
whose arrival here dates back to 1880, or
that the concert took place in the par
Tors OF his daughter, Mrs. Bickerton,
wife of Associate Justice BlckertOn, OF
the Supreme Court, now absent on
vacation

Hon. Judge Dole and his brother Hon.
Geo. II. Dole returned in the Hall from
A lving visit to the Volcano. They re-
mort that the fire in Lake Dana Is very
active, and that several cones are in
more or less ebullition. Quite a change
is noted in the vicinity OF Halemaumau,
a gulch fifty or sixty feet deep having
been formed around the front side, which
has TO be crossed to reach the active lake.
There are frequent overllows, one hav-
inc occurred only two days before their
arrival. Visitors who 90 up are sure to
find novelties which will repay the efforts
made to reach the Volcano.

HALLS SAFE IL Lock Co:
GENTs-Doubtless you are acquainted
with the facts of the recent fire which COM
pletely destroyed the business portion of
our town. We wish you could see the Safe
we just bought of you.
Itwas openedwith difficulty, because the
outer sheets of both doors were badly
warped, and the bolts would not turn, but
the combination Is in perfect order, and by
using wrench we opened the bolts by the
Combination.
The inside doors, and cabinet work, and
everything inside is in perfect order.
1t is pleasure to see the admiration -
pressed by everyone at seeing it in such
good order. We think every other Safe in
town was scOrched inside, though all the
Hall Safes are in good condition. We are
satisfied it would be to your interest to
send a salesman down at once, as nothing
but Hall Safe will sell now.
The outer doors of ours must be repaired,
and our Safe is again new. The old one
which we sold stood it as well as before,
and better than many new ones. (ThiS
was the third fire it has passed through.
Would be pleased to see or hear from you.
Yours truly,
