 One great mistake was made ia the plans of the new jail, but which it is not yet too lateto remedy. There should be closets provided, a system of sewer age, connecting with that of the city, . tank to supply the water, and cOnAect~ ing mains, so that the same could be flushed frequently, The present mode of attending to the requirements of the
 prisoners is the worst that could be de-

 On Wednesday afternoon Johnny Haven, the 14-year-old son of e. H.
 Haven, of this city, was projecting"
 with 22-calihre revolver. when the weapon was discharged, intiicting painful flesh wound in his left hand. The ball entered near the middle of the hand and ranged down into the feshy part above the little finger. Dr. Alley was called and extracted the bullet. The little fellow is doing finely and will soon be well again, but will probably fight shy of loaded fevolvers in future.

 arrived in Forrest City Wednesday
 morning early. The mercury in the
 thermometer cama very nearly drop
 ping entirely out at the bottom. About
 an inch of snow and sleet covered the
 ground, and the wind whistled it's
 mourrful sound. Tile shutters and
 windows on the houses rattled and
 shivered as though they could feel and
 know the sudden and unpleasant
 change. Early pedestrians puifed anG
 blOwed and walked rapidly, with hands
 covering their ears. and with prespi- ration at their noses. The snow and sleet huddled itself together in little
 drifts, as if to avoid the cutting winds.
 Such was the first 'chilting blasts" of
 season which has been unparalleled
 for its mildnesS.
