THE BLUE AND THE GRAY.
OLD SOLDIERS SAT DOWN SIDE BY
 SIDE INTERESTING WAR TALES.
The Sensational s.ory About Laura
 Green Mullins.

MONTICELLO, ARK, Oct. 14- [Speciag. -Another pleasant and successful day for the fair has closed. Your correspondent was prevented from being on the grounds until late in the afternoon and hence saw few of the special features of the day. Many of the old soldiers remained over after the first day. On examination 1t was found that Mr Joseph D. Johns, 85 years of age, was the oldest sol dier on the grounds and Hon. N. Y. Wadsworth, former representa- tive of this county, the youngest, having enlisted at the age of thirteen years. A special dinner was pre- pared for the soldiers, both Confed crate and Federal, and side by side those who had once so bitterly 'op- posed each other, charged upon the breastworks of barbecued meats and supplies of eatables that had been provided by the patriotic townswom en of Monticello A special feature was the dinner prepared by that superb citizen and typi. cal S9utherner, Judge W. I Wells, who arranged special table for the survivors of his old company About twenty five members were present, and this scribe greatly enjoyed the "war tales" rehearsed after the meal.
 The cantata, "Jepthah and His Daughter" was presented second time, by request, at the opera house. The leading characters were repre- sented by Mir. J. N, Harper and Miss Ida Harris. A visitor from a neighboring city pronounced it the best amateur work he had ever seen.
 Miss Laura Mullins requests me to say, through THE DEMOCRAT, that the girl who died in Bovina, Miss, a few days ago is in no way related to her family. The matter has caused considerable talk, and Monticellonians are curious to know how such parsonage could have lived among them without being known by some one.

TRIAL OF H. L. THARP.
He Killed the Man Who Had Defamed His Wife's Character-Club Sales
 of yyhiskey,

BATEsvILLE, ARK, Oct. IA [ Special. l-The trial of H, l.. Tharp, for killing T. R. Mason at Pleasant Plains short time since, is now in progress in the circuit court. The killing grew out of reports circu- lated by Mason about Mrs. Tnarp. A number of witnesses from Pleas ant Plains and Searcy are present. Hon. J. w. House, of Little Rock, and Yancey X Fnlkerson, of this place, are defending him. Judge Phillips, of Newport, employed by a brother of Mason, is assisting Jos. NJ. Stayton in the prosecution. While the killing is deplored by the community, Mrs. Tharr's character is said to be unimpeachable, and the accusation made by Mason was such hat no husband with proper respect for his wife could afford 10 let go unnoticed, and Tharp is deeply sym pathized with, if not upheld in his course by the best people of the community.
 There are number of whiskey cases on the docket which will test the legality of "club" sales made by manufacturers in original packages. It has been praeticed by distillets in this part of the state for some time and now, since the question has arisen, they will be glad to settle it one way or the other.
 Frank Southard, distiller who is not on trial, was fined Wednesday by the court for contempt in offer ing whiskey to one of the jurors.
 The county fair begins Tuesday next and the base ball games will be prominent feature, eight clubs having entered for the fair stakes. The exhibit of stock and produce will be exceptionally good.

UNDER MILITARY DISCIPLINE.
Lieutenant Ord Arrives and is Now En- gagged in His Duties at searey
 College.

SEARCY, ARK, Oct. 14.-[ Special -Lieut. Edward 0. c. Ord, ap- pointed by the war department to Searcy College, has arrived and en- tered upon his duties as professor of military science and tactics He is in the prime of his powers and brings to the college rare gifts for his work. The college will be put under military discipline after the manner of other institutions having such an officer. The government will forward $4200 worth of arms and other equipments for the Searcy College Armory. An informal re- ception was rendered Lieut.. Ord in the college chapel Septe mber 18th. Gen. Dandridge McRose, president of the board of directors of the college, made an address of welcome, both appropriate and elo- quent. He pronounced very fine eulogy on Gen. Ord, the distin- guished father of the brilliant pro lessor. His words of pathetic wei come will no doubt make the lieu tenant feel much at home in his new work of building up the young man hood of Arkansas.
 A c0mpany of cadets, numbering seventy eight, was immediately formed. This number will soon be increased to 150. Searcy College presents superior attractions to all who wish for their sons practical and thorough education.

 A MISTAKE.
THEY NEVER SLEEP.
They Could Go Year Without Wink According to senator
 Saunders.

NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-A morn ing paper has the following: Sena- tor Watson c. Squire, of Washing ton state, and ex Senator William F. Saunders, of Montana, arrived from Washington yesterday. Ex- Senator Saunders declared in bis judgment the unconditional repeal of the Sherman act was dead He believed a compromise would be agreed upon tbis week, incorporat- .:ro the best features of the Harris, Faulkner am. 1- ,lhurn bills.
 While MT. Saunders Wal o...-s U ting Col. Thomas F. Ochiltree walked into the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Catching sight of the Montana man, he exclaimed: "Ah, senator, 1 see my old friends in the senate are standing by their guns. What a horrible mistake the gold bugs made when they counted on freezing out the silver senators. Why, Ed. Wolcott and Santa Claus Stewart and Jones and the rest of them were never known 10 go to bed until 6 or ' o'clock m. 1 played poker with them for twenty hours at a stretch, and then you had 10 keep your eye peeled or they would freeze you out. 1 tell you when you try to pat that crowd to sleep you have undertaken the biggest job a man ever had on his hands. Ill bet on that poker crowd every trip"
 "I guess you are right, colonel, {" replied Senator Saunders, who knows little about the game him self. "Wolcott never sleeps, and as for Jones, 1 believe he can go a year without winking."

CHlLDREN'S DAY.
THE YOUNGSTERS HAVE A GLORIOUS
 DAY AT THE FAIR.
SEEING THE SIGHTS
All the Pabiic Schools ciused For the Week and the Children are Enjoying
 the Occasion.

WORLDS FAIR, Oct. 16.-Tne paid admissions at inc fair yester- day were Sl ,769. To-day, begins children's week at the Fair, 1t is a beautiful, clear, warm day for the youngsters. Not only did nature smile at them, but the activity and bright faces caused more than one staid persou to stop and beam on them. The little ones were every where, up on the Ferris wheel, through the Plaisance, in build ings about the grounds, and the more saving ones who stored their pennies for this day, proudly purchased their own tickets for ride in the gondolas or electric lauches. Thousands npon thousands of little ones swarmed through the gates. Commencing this morning the public schools closed for the week and the attendance from them is very large. The paroca:el schools also generally closed.
 The children crowded the steam CTS and omnibuses and eagerly clam ored for admittance But there was no crush and no delay in getting them through. The schools of the city all closed and will be for the rest of the week. A number of philanthropie citizens and business firms provided special trains and wagon transportation for various schools to the fair. Many thousani i took this way given by others, and school teachers presented tickets to classes. One wholesale baker pro vided any amount of sandwiches and pies free for the children, so they had about everything they needed to make the day happy without ex pense. Some teachers came in charge of classes and great many children had the protection of their parents. The school exhibits of different states and institutions were made the central visiting points. The new liberty bell was rung at noon, school children and teachers taking part in the exer- cises. The plaza west of adminiss tration building was crowded with throng of youngsters. The exercises were under the direction of Miss Lute Gordon, of Atlanta, Ga. A number of Worlds Fair officials made short addresses to the boys and girls.
 Then the big bell tolled out in honor of the memory of Pestolozzix, of Switzland, the man who first ad- vanced the theory of common educa- ten among the people. Masters Hendrix and Maynard, of New York, rugged at the rope attached to the heavy clapper manfully until the tones reverbrateds throughout the White City There was ringing also in honor of Froebel, the founder of tbe kindergarten system, and Horace Mann, founder ot the American common school system.

 dent Caused by the Heavy Fog.
 BOSTON, Oct. IA An unknown steamer was run down and sunk in Boston harbor last night, and many persons who were on board were drowned, the vessel sinking So rapidly it ws impossible to rescue them. The accident was caused by the inability of the officers of the respective crafts to see any dis tance ahead because of the heavy fog which hung over the barbor, and made the movements of vessels an extremely hazardous undertaking. No details were obtainable up to a late hour.
