To illustrate how badly Arkansas

To illustrate how badly Arkansas needs a railroad commission to reg uIate rates, we have only to consid- CT these facts, which we know to be true: In States having such commis- sion lowest rate for hauling freight across such States range from 9c. to l2c. per 100 lbs ; in Arkansas lowest rate for same service is lSc. per hun drcd pounds, which make. a differ cnce against us of from Sc. to 9c. on every hundred pounds shipped on lowest class of freight, and much more on higher classes. By all means let the Democracy press this issue to a successful solution.

FROM MALPRACTICE.
Mrs. Lille MOran's Death Has.
tened by an Operation.

The Coroner was notified Yesterday that
Mrs. Lille Moran. residing on Church

that her death was due to criminal mall
practice. The body was brought to the
Morgue and an inquest was held late in the
afternoon. Drs. Baumeister, G. T. Mason
and u. A. Clinton, who had attended the
woman, were placed upon the witness
stand, with the sister and friend of the de-
ceased.
From the testimony it was shown that
Mrs. Moran had been i'll for about three
weeks, and that the three physicians men,
toned had been called in to attend TO her,
put alter the operation which FASTENED her
death had been performed. DR.. Mason.
VINO commenced attending her on the 21St
of November, said he had tried to induce
her at that time to tell who had performed
the operation. or where his Office was, but
that she would not confess it then or even
later, when her illness became critical
When questioned about the matter she re-
piled to the doctor that she could not remem-
Der who the person was nor his name, nor
his address, and DR.. Mason ceased trying to

practice, performed upon her by some per-
son or persons unknown to the jury. She

THE BEST MAN WON.
The Bride Detested the Smell OF Whisk
and Changed Her Mind.

The Bride Detested the Smell of Whisky
and Changed Her Mind.
The marriage of Mr.. Thorwald Winter
and Miss Anderson at New Brunswick,
Ca, was the sequel to a sensation of two
weeks ago. when Miss Anderson Tilted heI
lover, L. w. Bingham, because his breath
smelt of whisky. Winter was summoned
from Paris, where he was on tour of Eu-
rope, to act as best man for the Bingham
Anderson nuptials, and now he becomes the
principal.
The preparations for the original marriage
were most elaborate. The young woman is
member of one of the weaithest families
in South Georgia, while Mr.. Bingham is the
proprietor of large printing house and has
edited various State newspapers.
The wedding was 10 have been church
affair, with little girls as maids of honor
and bridesmaids from every social center in
the State. Invitations were in great de-
mand, and the preacher was assured of a
handsome fee, bat on the day before the
wedding Miss Anderson took the train for
Savannah, and hurried note from her
mother warned invited guests not to come.
The explanation of it was that the day
before the wedding Mr.. Bingham called at
Che house of the prospective bride and
tected the smell of whisky and left the
room. Shortly afterward she was followed
by the prospective bride, who quickly in
formed her mother that the engagement
was off, and requested the privilege of visit
ing friends IN another city until the affair
queted,
Her mothers consent being gained, Miss
Anderson left the next day. as stated. The
Saturday following Mr.. Winter left New
Brunswick for Waycross Oh business, while
the same train bore Mrs. Anderson to her
daughter IN Savannah. On Sunday Mr.
Winter left Waycross for Savannah, and
Mr.. Bingham. accompanied by his friend
Mr.. Hughes, a representative business man,
took the train for the same place. Neither
Bingham nor Winter, however, was aware
of each others movements at Savannah.
Winter reached Miss Anderson first, and
while conversing with her on the porch
Hughes walked up and attempted to pave
the way for Bingham to see his former in-
tended. Miss Anderson would have nothing
to do with Hughes, but her mother APP
peared on the scene and administered such
a rebuke that Hughes was glad to escape.
Bingham made another effort to see Miss
Anderson, but failed, and late Ia the after
noon Winter popped the question ana was
accepted.
This outcome Is not so unexpected turn,
adds the Baltimore American, when it is
known that Mr.. Winter fell in love with
Miss Anderson several years ago ami pro-
posed, but on being informed of her en-
gagement to Bingham he withdrew his suit
and went to Europe, and came back to act
as best man, bat became groom instead.
