THAT Affair of the Forest City.

Deputy Marshal McCullum informs us
that he was the deputy on duty, Wednes-
day evening, when those two men were
accused Of misbehaving and were arrested.
He says the reason why the men were not
put before the court was by the request
of Capt. Oliver who was urged by friends
of the young men to give them chance
promising they would take the pledge
for year. 1t was for that reason and
that only, that they were not arraigned
in court.

number of foot passengers waiting 81
minutes by one gentleman's watch. We

oAMEWELL POLICE SYSTEM.
The Location of the Boxes in the Several
Circuits.

The Gamewell police system will be in
working order by October 18th. The
city has decided to buy the signal system
outright for Sc, 443 instead of leasing it
for ten years at $1,000 per year. The
boxes will be attached to telegraph poles
and painted blue. There will be 25 boxes,
three circuit stations, and stable outfit
with gang and indicator. This system
will do away with the present round
houses at the street corners. Citizens
keys will be furnished reliable citizens

PURE OLD RYE AND WHEAT
WHISKEY.

We formerly had bonded warehouse room sp,
icient to sto 500 gallons Of whiskey, which
we considered "a stock sufflcient TO meet Cut
trade, but we found however, the demand for
larger stock OF old whiskey, we were compelled
TO Increase our storage room and have iust com.
pleted AN 1ronclsd bonded warehouse with A
capacity sufficient to store 2,0O gallons Of
whiskey.
We aim TO sell no whiskey less than one year
old and from that on up TO the oldest we have
In stock except In original Packages, thereby
giving our patrons the benefit OF the age.
What we claim over great many other dis.
tilers:
FIRST, Rrtsrcreek being rich fertile valley,
we are able to get superior quality OF grain TO
manufacture our whiskay from.
SECOND: Having our Touring mill In cOnnac.
tlon TO M with our distillery we clean all our grain
ter, thereby, making it rs clean as the gram
that Is ground into -four.
THIRD We hand mash, double dstill our
whlskey and then re-distill on copper distilL
getting out the fusil oil and all impurities,
which new whiskey contains.
FIFTH: We use no sec0nd-handed barrels, our
whiSkey IL all nut In new. clean, Indiana White
Oak barrels which is considered the best barrel
In the market.
SIXTH: It is q known fact that the hotter
whiskey Is kept the faster II will age, therefor,
we heat our bonded warehouse with steam 80
the thermometer will register 20 degrees, when
the temperature is a. zero
We have never distilled any corn, and do here
by guarantee all our whiskey positively pure

competition, and TO any person who will fnd

ticket is among the possibilities in AL
ALBANIA, and if it shall be accomplished,
what then' At first blush it would
inspire the supporters of Harrison to
claim a divided South in the Electoral
College, but if the division of the
South shall be made probable, what
must be the effect of this Peoples
victory on the dozen or more wobbling
Western States1 If they can win in
Arkansas, why can't they win in Ne
braska, Kansas, Colorado, Nevada,
Idaho, the two Dakotas, Minnesota
and Michigan and throw Illinois, Iowa,
Wisconsin and possibly California, Or
egon and Washington either way
Looking at the success of fusion with
the Peoples parry as we may, it pre-
sents double-edged sword. II the
solid South can be broken by the new
party, the greatest hindrance to the
breaking of solid Republican West
would be removed, and the probable
outcome would be the loss of two or
three Southern States to the Demo.
Gratis and the loss of dozen Western
States to the Republicans, with the
defeat of both candidates in the Elec-
toral College and the election Of
Cleveland by the House.

Fusion Growing all Around.

1t seems to be settled that the Re-
publicans Of Arkansas will withdraw
their ticket for Governor and other
State officers to be elected on the Ist
Monday Of September, and cast the
solid vote of the party for the Peoples
State ticket, and the Peoples party
will in turn cast their solid vote for the
Republican Presidential Electors in
November. Both Weaver and Field.
the Peoples candidates for President
and Vice President, have been actively
stumping in Arkansas, and they are
hopeful of carrying their State ticket
by fusion of the two parties.
The same fusion was aggrcssively
tried in Arkansas two years ago, and
it was defeated 10000. 1t is estima-
ted that the Peoples party is now
stronger in Democratic recruits than it
was then, but the experience OF Ala
bama is likely to be repeated in
break Of the colored vote in view of
the Force Bill issue so pointedly pre-
sented in Harrison as the Republican
candidate for President Then the
open trade Of the Presidential Electors
to the Republican and Force Bill can
didate for President will be likely to
make many Democratic converts fall
back into the old Democratic ranks.
The State election in Arkansas will
be held on Monday next, and We shall
soon have the result of he fusion
movement in the South.

lmediately inside the room ten
voters, awaiting their turn to prepare
ballots, and one watcher from each
party are allowed. No electioneering
is allowed in the inclosure, nor no
circulars or bills posted. A card of
instructions and penalties and sample
ballots are posted up.
The guard rail must be six feet
from the table containing the ballot
box. The voter enters the gates of the
guard rail at the right gets the ballot
from the clerk, passes to booth, gives
it to an Inspector who deposits ballot
in box, and passes out at the left of
the guard rail. No voter can enter
the room after once voting unless he
be called in to assist another in pre-.
pairing a ballot. The voter before
passing through the guard rail mu..
give his name and residence to one of
the election officers; if the voter be
challenged his right to vote must be
established before he can be ad-
mitted. AS soon as a voter is ad-
mitted within the guard rail the elect
ion officers having charge of the
ballots shall detach ballot from the
stub and give it to the voter, but first
fold it SO that the words printed on
the back and outside, are the only
words visible. Four voters may be
allowed inside the guard rail in excess
of the number of polling booths.
After the closing of the polls any
voter or vote RS shall be admitted in
the room outside of guard rail.

William H., Son of Cornelius,
Succumbs to Fever.
New YORK. May 23.-William 81.
Vanderbilt. aged twenty-one, son Of
Cornelius Vanderbilt, died tonight at
1915 O'clock. His father, mother,
brother and sister we're present when
he passed away. He had beeu weak all
the earlier part of yesterday, and was
gradually recovering from the effects of
three hemorrhages Sunday until at S:35
tonight he had another hemOrrhage OF
the stomach.
DR.. McLanes was with him when he
died. He apparently rallied from the
attack under DIR. McLanes' treatment
and then went to sleep. His sleep was
a perpetual one, for he never awOke.
He was taken i'll May at New
Haven, Conn, at that time very
seriously. AS there was no ty-
phus fever in New Haven at
that time it is supposed he
contracted the disease while on trip
through the Western states about the
Easter holidays. Chauncey NJ. DepeW
said tonight tnat atthe time Of the trip
Mr.. Vanderbilt was not in good health
and susceptible to disease. The deceased
inherited by the will of his grandfather
William Ii. Vanderbilt, Sl,000,G0o, the
income to be converted to his use when
he attained his majority, the principal
to be placed to his credit when he be-
came thirty years of age. He was the
only one of the grandchildren Of Will
lam ii. Vanderbilt mentioned in his
will. The deceased WIS one of the most
popular men in the junior class of Yale
college,
