THAT WONDERFUL NEGRO CHILD
Bobs mp at Hot Springs.-Only Five
Years Old and Reads all Lam
guages, Except Chinese
and Irish.

A correspondent from Hot
Springs writes the following about
the wonderful negro child which
has been on exhibition in the south
ern part of the state for some time
and OF which we have heretofore
given an account:
BENJAMIN Franklin Coleman, the
little 5year-old colored boy who
has been astonishing the people in
various towns in this State by his
precoci,y, was exhibited at the Ho-
tel Hay before large audience On
the night of the 9th inst. The child
is phenomenon. He reads with
equal fuency English, Latin, Ger
man. Spanish, Italian and French
and even Greek. The pronucia-
ton is distinct and every word can
be understood by the listener. He
has been doing this for eighteen
months past. A most remarkable
fact is that he never attended
school day in his lite and never
was taught anything but his al
phabet. With him are his grand
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. John Cole
man He is unusually bright and
Intelligent and answers all questions
asked him readily. The writer can
vouca tor the truth of these state
ments as he himself put the child
through course OF the most cru
cial tests. The grandparents are
ignorant people and are afraid to
entrust him into the hands Of a
manager competent to handle him.
The old people have been made
princely offers but always refuse to
listen.

DEATHS NUMBER SEVENTEEN.
COnvicts Still Dying in the Filthy
Convict Camp at Little Rock.

CONVICT camp aG Llttle ROCK.
Since our last report three more
convicts have dico in the peuiten-
tiary at Little Rock, making total
of seventeen deaths since the al
legged disease started among the
convicts.
Surgeon Williams, who was sent
from Memphis toss Helena to Gin
vestigate the cause and character
the disease which is killing off the
convicts in the State prison made
the following report to Surgeon
General Winman of the Marine
Hospital at Washington last Thurs
day:
Have examined condition of city
and convict camp. Surface drain
age of the city is by open, stagnant
bitches, and streets are quagmires;
no sew erage vault system; contents
emptied into river below city.
Water supply partly artesian, part
ly cisterns and surface wells. Con-
vict camp located in quagmire, Just
below city. Consists OF a passen
ger coach and FIVE box cars.
Eighteen men are housed in one
box car. No ventilation TO speak
of; bedding filthy and sewerage
disposed of by wooden hopper let
into floor in one corner with pail
beneath; very filthy. Sewerage
dumped into ditch near by. Food
very course-no fresh meat. Wa
ter obtained from river near the
camp. Two slaughter pens, very
offensive, containing immense
amount of decompnsed offal, within
rs yards Of the camp. Slaughter
pens aud camp subject to overflow.
] believe ground at the camp.to be
saturated with products OF animal
decomposition. Three cases at
suspicious. Cases occurred or 18th.
Medical attendance gave history OF
acute gastro-enteritis, with cboleri-
form symptoms. In my opinion tho
suspicious cases due to either poi
soncd food or contaminated water,
plus filth and overcro wding prob :
ably the latter.

IN DEATHS SHADOW.
Not Only Biaine's Days, but His Hours
Are Numbered.
AHARD S7RUGsLE BETWEEN LIFE AVID DEATH
Announcement, of His Death Expected
Any Moment.
His Family and Intimate Friones Are Aware Of th,
Vac. That the Angel Of Death Will
Scen Come.

WASHINGTON, D. G. Jan. 10.-It
is now evident that not only Jas. G..
Blaine's days, but tie hours of the
distinguished stateman's life, are
numbered. For the past forty
eight hours, it has been q struggle
between life and death, and al
though at this moment the doctors
claim his condition is not necessari-
ly dangerous, the announcement of
the death Of distinguished Amcri-
can, would be no surprise to the
intimate friends of the Blaine fami-
". Fo, several days last week, it
was reluctantly acknowledged by
physicians and the family, there
had been No Improvement in the
condition OF the sick man. Satur-
day there were signs of relrogres-
sion, and by nightfa'l it was be-
lieved that another crisis was i'm
pending. These fears were more
than realized, and DR.. Johnson was
hastily sent tor at $50 o'clock and
remained all night in the sick
room.
An intimate friend OF the family
who spent Sunday night with Mr..
Blaine said to the watchers Monday
morning: Il don't think you will
have to keep the vigil much longer
The light of life of Mr.. Blaine is
going out, and [ don't think he will
survive the next twenty four hours
His present condition is q struggle
between existence and the enc
which is likely to terminate at any
time"

teachers are receiving Inc same
wages as the white ones; CD that
our average rate OF wages are IA
advance of three-fourths OF the
states of the states of the Union. AZ
that our average first-gra de salaries
are behind the average first grade
salaries of one half the Union,
while the other wages are in adj
vance; 60 the serious fact that too
little care is taken in discriminate
ing the teaching force by the ex-
aminers, the directors and the peo-
pie. There is and ought to be
more than 13 dollars difference be-
tween an average first and third
grade man, and the propensity ia
make such differences as we'll as
to take so many third grade men
is fraught with danger to the
state.
The whole nnm Der of schools
taught was: 1891, 4,251; 1892,
4,725; gain, Ala or about II per
cent.
he average length of school
appears below: Number Of days
taught, 1891, rs; number of days
taught, 1892, IA. This is a good
showing when the revenue is con-
sidered, but poor showing tor the
state. While Mississippi pays
Ill mills upon her taxed wealth
for sch ools, Arkansas pays but 5.S
mills. Both these states excel
all others in the South. But
mere excellence over other states
that are making little cxertion is
small honor. We should look at
the greater energies of other peo-
pie and try to excel them. Iowa
pays IS mills to the dollar in vol
untary education tax; Illinois pays
about the same, while Indiana pays
about IL. 1t is easy fora man in
Arkansas to pay 10 mills on the
dollar as the Indianian or the
Iowan. 70 increase the average
length OF term in Arkansas schools
is the great imperative demand at
this time. This cannot be done
without more money, and the
time has come to face this question.
The average length OF term in
towns is better. For sixty.one
towns the average term in days
was l16, and in the nine, cities II
reached the splendid figure OF 16z
days. These gle eat differences be-
tween country and town must be
considered and changed if pros
perity, satisfaction and growth
are to bless our people. An Agri-
cultural people as We are must de-
velop the intellectual commune
ties or suffer the perils of the non
thinking, non-acting, non-develop-
ing population. An active, think
ing, vigorous working people is
of incalcula value to any state,
D and the best and on'y way to have
it is to mould it into the men in
State schools while they are boys

DIFFICULT PROBLEMS
Confront the Present Session Of Our
State Legislature.
THE CONVICT LEaSias TO Be ABOLISHED
The Subject Of Good Roads Will BE
Considered.
To Settle the Constitution nal Questions.-The Con
test for tha SpesksrshiP aad Minor
GK1es.

LITTLE Rock. Jan. s.-The State
Legislature convened in this city
to-day. 1t is claimed that in many
Instances this will be the most i'm
portant session held since the mem
cradle days Of IA, when democracy
again took hold Of the reins of the
State government.
This general assembly will be
called upon to settle three leading
qucstions viz: Whether or not
tho State shall have new constitu-
ton, the satisfactory settlement Of
be iniquitous convict lease system
and the much discussed question OF
good roads.
There is number of members
of both houses who favor consti-
tutienal convention, while others
say the question should again be
submitted to the voters at the next
general election.
1t seems that most al the men,
hers of both houses favor abolish
ing the present convict lease sys-
tenn, ard. no doubt, this will be
done. The great question is what
..nian is best to adopt in in lis stead
THE present lease expires next
May Tho Texas system. State
control and management, has 3
number of supporters in both
branches. There is already much
talk Of appointing d JOINT committee
TO prepare bill covering this i'm
portant subject.
The road question is going to
consume much time in tbs legis-
lature. The suggestions of tho re-
cent State road convention will be
presented for consideration. It is
thought probable that the settle
tlement Of the convict question
means will be provided by way of
the disposition OF the convicts that
will at the same time settle the
road problem.
The Speaker Of the house will he
called upon to settle q very diff
cult question, that is, whether or
not Constitutional amendment No.
has legally carried. 1t will be
remembered that the amendment
did not receice majority Of all the
votes cast. For this reason many
claim that it was not constitutions
ally adopted, while an equal num-
be!, if not more, claim that it was
only necessary for the amendment
to receive a majority or the votes
cast on the subject.
The house will be composed of
one hundred members, which is the
constitutional limit and FIVE more
than the last legislature contained.
Among them are seen many famil-
lar faces.
The following distinguished
gentlemen are candidates for Pres
ldent Of the Senate: Hon. T. B.
! Trustworthy of Clark county. Hon.
& Fl. Il. Hawkins OF Columbia, ard
Hon. J. NJ Harkey OF Pope county.
For Secretary of the Senate there
