Like lords and ladies and persons of rank,
1t has always title TO keep.
1t has pages attendant, therefore like queen;
Like n tree, it has many leaves;
And like to n messenger coming in haste,
1t often speaks false and deceives.
Now tell me its name, for tits something you

'Tis something you often have seen
something that's found with the rich and
the poor,
In the home of the peasant or queen.

Suppose the fire Monday night had occurred an hour later, would there nave been business house left stand- Ing on North Front and North Wash lngton street? We think not, Gen Ilemen, we must have the waterworks. mat cur town escaped almost total obstruction Monday night is due en- tlrely to the fact that no breeze was stirring at the time. Had the wind been never so slight the calamity would have been fearful. Our people labored he roically- but they would have been powerless had the elements not favored them in every way.
 r. D. Boyle lost $50 on the streets the early part of the week and for a time was very blue over his misfortune. He Ieels better now. It was noticed that scott Burk, a l5-year-old darkey. was spending money quite freely. and in. Vestlgation developed the fact that he was the finder of the lost treasure. scott told several different stories about the matter, but finally confessed that he had picked mp the money on the street and proceeded to squander it rather recklessly. Forty-three dollars ana ten cents were recovered. the iinder having spent s6.90. MT. Boyle is to be congratulated.
 A long-haired preacher made his ap. pearance on our streets last week. but came 10 grief. He took board and lodging at Rev. W. II. Paslay's. Mir. Paslay was absent, but he imposed upon Mrs. Paslay by claiming to have been sent to their home by a Baptist preacher at Brinkley. This sort of arrangement became monotnnous af- ter while, and then Marshal Prewett took a hand. arresting the alleged preacher as a vagraDt. He protested that he was disciple of Christi and II there was Baptist minister in town he could prove his calling and election. He was taken to Rev. J. II. Cason. but his explanations did not explain. Not WlthstanaliIg he was an apparent im- poster. MT. Cason's intercessions se- cured his release and the disciple Immediately shook the dust of Forrest City from his feet.
 The west-b0und passenger train on the Little Rock and Memphis road, due here at 9:30 last night, was badly wrecked at point just east of Black fish bayou, about fourteen miles east of Forrest City. The engineer, Pete Ring, heroically stuck to his machine, reversed the lever, shut off the steam and put the air-brakes to work before the engine left the ties, thus probably saving many lives. The engine started down the dump. and then Mir. Ring jumped, sustaining trifling hurt on one of his arms. The fireman jumped and was unhurt. The engine plowed its way down the dump and through mud about forty feet from the track on the south side of the road. The tender stood across the track, the baggage car took squirt to the north of the trick and the forward trucks of the Cotton Belt sleeper were of the rails The passengers made up a purse with which to purchase Mir. Ring a present of d fine gold watch and chain in recog. milton of his brave services. None ol the passengers or trainmen were in. jured. A. D. Boyle went down to the scene of disaster on the special train as telegraph operator, and has his office on box in the mud.

THE STORM.
One of the Heaviest kainG.lls Ever Ex-
 perIenced in This sectiop.

One of the Heaviest kainndls Ever Ex-
 perieneed in This section.
 The rainstorm of Wednesday after noon was a corker.
 For several days the barometer had been cutting high inks. and Monday the mercury in the thermometers began to climb as though it intended to knock out the tops of the tubes. Everything indicated an atmospheric disturbance. At II o'clock Monday night heavy storm of wind and rain, accompanied by a brilliant electrical display, pre- vailed, followed at o'clock Wednes- day morning by still harder blow and heavier rainfall. At intervals slight showers fell "Wednesday until O clock and then the fioodgates opened. For an hour the rainfall was tremendous. Its like has probably never been equaled in this section. During this hour the precipitation was 1.70 inches. For the twenty-four hours ended at o'clock Wednesday evening the gauge showed precipitation of 3.60 inches, which is more than oDe-third the average total annual rainfall of this section.
 The sewers could not begin to stand the heavy draft make upon their ca pacity and soon overflowed. The water shot over the dams like young Mag aras. The railroad track at the inter. section of lZard street was flooded out of sight. The parks and streets became rushing torrents. The bridge just south of the Chrisco building on South Wash ington street was undermined and had to be torn away. E. Duncan's premises were lake, the water standing six inches deep in his kitchen. All his chickens were drowned except one lone rooster, which battled manfully with the raging waters until almost dead but finally secured perch of safety upon the fence. Everybody's garden suffered more or less.
 Many bridges in the country were washed away or badly damaged, and fences suffered severely.
 There is grave danger of an overflow in the St. Francis and Mississippi bot. toms, and a feeling of anxiety pre- vails among the dwellers in the swamp country
