NoRRIDGsw0ck RACES.
Halle Defeats The Seer in z 20 Trot-0ther
Winners, Camille and philins.

NoRRIDGEwOcK, Aug, 10 Especial. y
There was a good sized crowd in attendance
at the races at Elmwood park, today, and
there was sport in the three events which
were trotted. THE only thing which there
was to mar the pleasure of the day was the
utter incompetence of the starter to start
the horses fairly and the other Judges to
assist in Judging the race.
In the final heat in the ? 90 class, after
the horses had scored several times, they
were sent away with st. Croix on the run,
having come in that manner fully five rods
to the wire. The Seer was also three or
four lengths behind at the start. In the
other classes the starting was also greatly at
fault. If Manager Carleton wishes
to continue to have good fields of
horses and good crowds at his
races he must be more careful in selecting
starters and judges. "*--=
The 2.30 was unfinished and will be
trotted at 10 o'clock today.
The following are the summaries

ED DAVIS ACQUITTED.

In the Circuit court, yesterday
afternoon, the trial Of the case of
State VS., Ed Davis, charged with
embezzling five hundred dollars from
the Pacific Express Company, was
concluded, resulting in a verdict OF
mot guilty" D." The case has been an
interesting and closely contested
one, both by state and the defense.
The array of witnesses was quite
large, a number Of them coming
from a distance, The most inter
esting Of these witnesses was Miss
Lenier, a charming young lady, Of
excellent family, whose parents re-
side near Jefferson, in Marion coun-
ty, Tex, and who is, herself, the fl
auce of the defendant, Davis. She
was summoned to establish her en-
gagement to the defendant, who ac-
counted for the $4,000 found in his
possession when arrested by the
statement that he was saving up
the money, on which to get mar
ried The young lady not only es-
tablished this fact, but convinced
every man present of her devoted
love for the man to whom she had
r1ighted her troth, aud also i'm
pressed upon all who saw and heard
her that Davis, however unfortu-
nate in other matters, had been an
exceedingly lucky man in winning
the love of so true and devoted a
woman as the young lady in this
case has fully proven herself to be,
The satisfaction of Davis friends,
and Joy ofhis future bride over the
victory gained in the legal battle
Just ended, was only too short lived
however, for before the kindly
words of congratulation were well
spoken another warrant was served
on defendant, upon another and
similar charge, only this time a
pistol, and not money was alleged
to have been taken and appropri-
ated by the defendant, while an
employe Of the Express Company
and the shipper not the Company,
is the complaining witness Both
the accused and his friends deny
the truth of the charge, and claim
that Davis will be able to clear him
self Of the latter charge, as he has
of the former In the meantime he
is held in custody, in default Of bail
which was set, as in the former
case, at $500, he not having, as yet,
succeeded in securing bondsmen for
required amount. This latter case
will probably be tried in few days.

ants principal attorney,

FIRE ON THE IRON MOUNTAIN

Telegraphic news reached the
city yesterday afternoon, from
Helena, Ark, of a fire in one of the
mail coaches of a passenger train
on the Helena branch of the st.
Louis Iron Kountain & Southern
railway. The fire broke out in the
car between 6 and Z o'clock a. m.
The train from the north had just
arrived at Wynne and left the mail
car. The agent locked up the car
and went to Breakfast. Along near
Z o'clock smoke was seen issuing
from the car, and upon opening the
door a fire was discovered on the
inside, The whole inner portion of
the car was on fire. As quick as
possible the fire was extinguished,
but not until the car had been con.
sidernbly damaged and a portion of
the mail burnt and scorched, 1t is
not known how the fire caught, un-
less there was an explosion Of the
lamps, and this is not thought to
be the case. There was no fire in
the stove at the time, so the origin
of the fire remains mystery.
Some of the mail en- route to Hell
ena was burned

Three Wants

Reasons whole pleasure, all the
Joys of sense,
Live in three words, health, peace
and competence"
So says the poet. Competence
counts for little when one is sick,
and peace is disturbed when health
is upset, so that the poet rightly
places health first. To have good
health you must have pure blood.
From the blood the system receives
all of its material of growth and re
pair. The best blood purifier is DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
which is world-famed and sold ev-
erywhere. 1t is a sovereign remedy
for all diseases due to impoverished
or impure blood, as consumption,
bronchitis, weak lungs, scrofula, old
sores, skin diseases, and kindred
ailments

Editors FORREST CITY TIMES:
 DEAR SIR: After further consideration of the matter, have concluded that it will be best for me not to offer for reelection. My individual affairs have of necessity been neglected while have been Judge, and need more attention than I could give them if l should continue in office
 believe that my opportunities for re- suming the practice of law will be more favorable next winter than would probably be the case four years hence.
 There are others offering for the position in either of whose hands as judge the in- terests of the people and litigants will be safe, and from among whom the nOminat- ing convention will no doubt easily select an acceptable and capable officer.
 In retiring desire to express my appre- citation and thanks for the very many en- couraging assurances of support have re- ceived from my friends, particularly in your county. It is gratifying to me to know that 1 have the approval of so many good people in my efforts to discharge the duties of the office l now hold. l shalt continue to give to those duties my very best efforts and undivided attention till the term expires, and then resume the practice of law.
 Again thanking my friends for their kind assurances of support, l am
 Yours respectfully,
