Very Latest,

Judge Leatberman has decided
that there Is no law against prize
hghtin8 inpArkansas, His decision
was rendered at 43O p, m. yester-
day, and the wires brought the
news to this city a few minutes af-
terwards,
Just what effect this will have on
our Goueruor we are not prepared
to say.
We think that two obstacles stare
those Hot Springs people In the
face yet to keep them from witness
ing the fight. One Of them Is Gov
ernor Clarke aud his militia, and

The FIGHT SITUATION.
Corbett on the Ground with
His Seconds, But Fitz-
simmons Has Not
Shown His Hand
Yet.
HE IS CITED TO BE IN HOT
SPRINGS BY MONDAY, OR
THE FIGHT WILL BE
DECLARED OFF.

There seems to be much activity
at the Springs in fighting circles.
They believe that if they can get
Fitzsimmons there and have him ar.
rested and get him out like they
hope to get Corbett out that the
fight can be pulled off easily, and
that under police protection,
The General is still at the Springs
and will remain there subject to
Governor Clarke's orders.
Fitzsimmons is still in Texas and
will not leave the state for Arkan-
sas until he is made doubly sure
that he will not be arrested.
While this is all going on, Corbett
is going through trial to regain his
liberty against charge that he has
come to Hot Springs to engage in
fight
Acknowledgement Trustworthy has
been diving down in the law books
to find some law to hinder the fight
and he thinks he has it in the law
to prevent cruelty to animals which
was made a law in 1879 and which
reads;
Section Is. In this act, and in
every law of this state passed, or
which shall be passed, relating to
or affecting animals, the singular
shall include the plural; the words
torture, torment or cruelty shall
be held to include every act, omis-
sion or neglect whereby uninsti6a-
physical pain, suffering or death is
caused or permitted; and the words
owner and person shall be held to
include corporations as well as indi-
Aiduals, but nothing in the act shall
be construed as prohibiting the
shooting of birds or other game for
the purposes of human food
Governor Clarke gave out no
statement yesterday indicating his
programme after the pending ha-
beus corpus case is decided at Hot
Springs.
Genera Taylor, chlefof the mill
tia, remains in the city and will not
leave until programme is definite
ly decided upon.
Among the Governors callers yes
terday was G. 0. Seymour a stail
correspondent Of the Chicago Times
Herald, who is on his way to Hot
Springs to representhis paper Gov,
Clarke received him very pleasant
ly.
Sheriff Houpt, of Hot Springs,
who arrived in the city two hours
after the Corbett party last night,
talked as follows to Gazette" re-
porter;
1T the courts decide that a spar
ring match is not contrary to tie
law there is every likelihood that
there will be a sparring match at
Hot Springs. If the decision be
otherwise, there will be no sparring
match, You can say that 30
per cent of the people Of Hot
Springs and Garland county are IN
favor of The proposed contest but
they will bow to the decree of the
court, whichever way 1t directs"

A Little Shake up,

We were favored Tuesday fore.
noon with that rarity in New Eng
lnnd, genuine earthquake. 1t oc-
cured about II 10 and was preceded
by low rumbling sound, much like
the running of truck over floor in
a distant room. It was so distinct as
to be noticed by most of our people.
Several ladies on lower main street
ran out of their houses to see what
was the matter. As near as it could
be determined by those in this office
the wave was from west to east,
though main street lady is positive
that it came from the east from the
fact, she says, that there was per-
ceptible difference of time in the rat
tie of her kitchen and sitting room
stoves, the former being east of the
latter. However it matters not as it
got here. 1t seems to have been To-
cal and confined to this part of the
state. In Brattlebore, according to
reports, it was somewhat more severe
than in other places.

biR crowd witnessed the Ceremonies
and Listened to the Fine Address.
Memorial Day exercises, under the
auspices of Hooker Post, passed off
pleasantly bearing the intense heat,
the mercury, in the afternoon, clinging
close to the 80 mark.
The Post and Relief corps, led by
the Londonderry Cornet band, marched
from their hall between one and two
o'clock to the town hall square where
in presence of several hundred persons,
the impressive ritualistic ceremony of
the G. A. r. was held in honor of the
dead. After this the hall was filled,
every available space being taken on
floor, gallery and stage, the latter be-
ing occupied by the members of the
Post and others. A. E. Cudworth,
Esq, presided and after selection by
the band and song by the choir, led
by ]. B. johnson, very pleasingly
opened the speaking in a few brief but
timely remarks and introduced the ora
tor of the day, Rev. j. S. Lyon of
Bristol, Conn. The speaker was re-
ceived with applause and seemed to be
at his best. The address was upon
broad, patriotic lines with refreshing
everyday, practical tinge. No finer
address was delivered in Vermont on
this memorial day and, notwithstand-
ing the heat and crowded hall, was lis
tened to attentively throughout.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced it a local
di-ease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with To-
cal treatment, pronounced it incurable
Science has proven catsrrh to be con-
stitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufacture by i. J. Cheney &

A TERRlBLEAND FATAL ACCIDENT
Road Commissioner Vaile Terribly Man.
Sled by Premature Explosion of
Dynamite.

gled by Premature Explosion of
Dynamite.
Our citizens were shocked early
Monday morning to learn that road
commissioner Lewis N. Vaile had
been terribly injured by premature
explosion of dynamite.
Mr.. Vale started Monday morn
ing with his gang of men to work on
the road from tue North village to
Lowell Lake and made a commence
ment between the residence of The
opolis Jaqulth's and the Nancy nut-
ton place. After the men were set
to work Mr.. Vale gave his personal
attention to the removing of big
stone on one side of the road. He
built fire with some coarse shavings,
found nearby, for the purpose OF
warming adynamite cartridge. James
Hoey had dug hole under the rock
to make place for the dynamite and
had just joined the other men, few
rods ahead, when the explosion oc-
cured. The men ran back aud
found Mr.. Vale terribly mangiet
and his clothing torn off or in tatters.
Will Belden, who had his bicycle
nearby, mounted it and came as
speedily as possible, first to the north
village where he notified DR.. Arnold,
then on to this village for DR.. Mil
lington and to apprise the family of
the disaster. In the mean time the
men took Mr. Vaile's team and plac-
ing him in the wagon started for his
home, near this village, arriving here
just after DR.. Millington and drug
gist Smith had started to 60 over the
hill. Charles Alexander mounted
Mr.. Winchester's horse and started
in pursuit overtaking them at S. M.
Holden's. They at once returned
and in few minutes were at the
Vale residence where Dr.. Arnold
had also just arrived. An examina-
ton showed that his right hand had
been blown off leaving the lower arm
in shreds, his right side so badly lac
Grated as to look like piece of raw
meat his right ear mostly gone and
the eye on the same side entirely gone
and his face so badly disfgured as to
be unacceptable. The arm was am
putated, just below the elbow, by DR..
Millington and everything done pos
sible to make him comfortable. On
Tuesday some hopes were entertain
ed that he might recover, and even up
to an hour or two before his death,
which occurred a little after six
o'clock Wednesday morning, although
from the time of the accident until
death brought relief but little signs of
consciousness appeared.
The power of the explosion is at
tested by the following facts: Mr..
Vaile's hand was literally blown to
atoms, a careful search revealing
only now and then shred of flesh
and few particles of bone his hat
was blown some ten rods, the rim and
lining being badly torn; shrubs and
briar bushes on the opposite side of
the road were stripped of all foliage.
just how the the accident occurred
or what caused it will never be known
to certainty, Will Belden, ore of
the gang of men, says that he was
looking at Mr.. Vaile when the car
fridge exploded and that he was
STOPPING over apparently turning the
cartridge before the fire.
