Six Hundred Miners Quit Work.

Six hundred miners quit work in the mines of the Kansas and Texas Coal Go. at Huntington the other day.
 Huntington is 25 miles south of Fort Smith and is one of the most thriving towns in Sehas. tian county. These mines have been running steadily and without disturbance for several years The present trouble, says dispatch sent from Fort Smith, is charged to the agita. tion of four or five sympathhtie followers of the Kansas strikers who have been there for two weeks, Supt. Ramsey is firm. He wants to keep all good men at work. but does not want disturbers. He discharged two turbulent men and nearly all the men quit work, but not so much out of sympathy with the disturbers as for the purpose of bringing about an adjust ment which will insure the resumption of work as early as possible.

a ARKANSAS MORTGAGES.
Few Figures from the Census Depart
 ment of Interest to Arkansans.


 The statistican of the census bureau in his report of the indebtedness in- cured by Arkansans has this to say:
 The realestate mortgage movement in Ar kansas from 1880 to 1889 was on the whole a progressive one beginning with an incurred debt of s2, 73s. l2s and ending with an incurred debt Of ss,423.747 in 1889. This increase Of a7 65 per cent. in the incurred debt during the ten years was greater than the increase of population, which was 40.5S per cent
 Upon separation of the debt into that which incumbered acre tracts and that which in- cumbered lots it will te noticed that there was larger rate of increase in the debt on lots than in that on acres. The amount of debt placed on lots in 1880 was S624 3ss. and there was an increase to & 13s O57 in 1889, although this amount was exceeded by few thousand dollars in 1887 In 1880 ? 206 lots were mort gagged; in 1889. 7.5s7. number greater than that of 1887. The debt incurred on acre tracts rose from s2 l37 740 in lss to $ 2s5 600 in 1889; and the number of acres mortgaged in 1880 was 5590 O; in 1889, 1, ,lss. .233.
 During the ten-year period a debt Of S52. IT, s56 was incurred. represented by 80 ls0 mort Gages; 61.ee per cent. of the debt on acre tracts and g. per cent on lots
 The real-estate mortgage debt existing Jan. uary l, 1890, is si43665 595 Of which s905I IT, or 6s per cent. is acres. and s53l5.47s or 37 per cent. is on lots. Only two Of the twenty-seven counties of the state have a debt as large as sl.Wo0o. and these are Pulaski county, con. taining Little Rock. with an existing debt of i2 3h6 7s2, and Sebastian county. containing Fort smith, with deLt of si .s43,7is.
 This gives Arkansas a per capita mortgage indebtedness of s13. and in this respect, stands lower than any other state that has been ta bulated.
 WHAT THE GAZETTE RELIEVES
 The Little Rock Gazette in referring to the above, says:
 II is a powerful argument against the conten. tions Of he calamity howlers who should be slapped in the face with it every time they give vent to their pessimestic views with the object of impressing others with the belief that the state is drifting backward.

Miss Garland. Daughter of Ex-senator
 Garland, of Arkansas. Leaves Home for
 Awhile, But Returns Safely-A Little
 Scare.
 Washington special St. Louis Republic, Aug. IA.
 Miss Daisy Garland, daughter of ex- Senator Garland, of Arkansas, ex-at- torney-general under Mir. Cleveland's former administration. left her home last Friday. That day she went out in the morning with some friends, came home again in the afternoon, spoke of the places she had visited and went out again.
 A reporter called this morning at the convent and was told that the young lady had been there last Friday early in the day. She asked to see the mother superior, who came to the par Tor and talked with her perhaps for a quarter of an hour. Miss Garland was an entire stranger to her. Their con- versation was entirely on religious matters, the young lady herself intro- ducing the subject. She spoke of her family, her brothers in particular, but while her conversation was serious the sister noticed nothing at all unusal in her manner except that she seemed rather sad and somewhat depressed. She was asked to come again and the enterview ended as quietly as it had commenced. There has been some un- easiness about her since.
 Miss Garland returned home at 9:S0 tonight She was visiting friends in convent in Baltimore. The whole mat ter of her absence seems to have been an unnecessary scare. Miss Garland is a very pious Catholic and has been anxious for some time past to enter a convent, and become nun. Her fa- ther, who is himself Catholic, made no objection. but it is understood that one of her brothers did not like the idea of her immuring herself in con- vent Miss Garland would sometimes give up the idea and then again take to it morosely. In the absence of Gen. Garland from the city, Mir. Sanders Garland, the young lady's brother, be- came excitedly alarmed, and went to the chief of police. Subsequently he met Congressman Fellows of New York. an old friend of the family. and explained matters. Fellows, started for Baltimore and found the young lady at convent He telegraphed late this evening that Miss Garland and himself would be at home about 9:5o. They arrived on time. It de- veloped later that Miss Garland re- quested young lady friend of hers to inform her brother that she was going to visit friends in Baltimore and would be absent few days. and that the friend neglected to deliver the mes- sage

Saturday being made holiday. It is stated that this policy will be continued as long as the dull times last, the old schedule to be rein stated only when business justifies if The reduction of salaries alone on this division will amount to about ssO, ,OO0 a month
