A BIG RIVER.
The Arkansas Higher Now Than at
 Any Time Since 1890.

A mighty mass of water is sweep ing down the channel of the Arkan- sas river, and in many places the lowlands are inundated, yet the water continues to rise and some uneasiness is now felt by the bottom planters and they are driving their stock to higher ground.
 In the southern and eastern DOT tions of Pine Bluff water from the river has backed up through the old lake bed and inundated the yards of a number of houses built on the low lands. The camp of Contractor Ware. on South Common, was under water yesterday and he was com pelled to hunt higher quarters. The water here has reached 8 higher mark than at any time since 1890.
 dispatch received from Little Rock this afternoon says: "The guage at this point shows a ise in the Arkansas river of 23:7-a rise of one-tenth since yesterday. At Fort Smith the river has fallen one-tenth since last night.

The thumb was torn off, the index finger was missing, the three remaining fingers were partly gone and every bone in the hand was broken. It was indeed a horrible sight. 4 physician was summoned and the wounded man was put to bed and given every possible atten- ton. A moment after the explosion a man standing on the opposite side of the street heard something fall near him and on Investigating dis covered it to be a finger blown from Mir. Harvey's hand. II was picked up and brought to the saloon. 4 second later another finger was found on the street at least fifty feet from where the explosion oc- .enrred. Mir. Harvey was removed to his home He rested easily Itast night. 1t cannot be told just yet whether he will survive the wound or not. He has many friends aad the accident is one of the sad elest that eyer occurred in Pine Bluff.
