TEMPEST IN TEAPOT.
sensational writer in the Albuquerque
Citizen announces that the board has
been Investigating the pardon business.
This is not fact. During the examina-
ton of the records of the institution one
of the members of the board, Col. Hud-
son, discovered an item which showed
that $3.50 of Convict William Davis
money had been paid to Mr.. j. II. Crist
as attorneys fee, but no investigation
was made by the board, nor was the SUBJ
ject considered, or thought necessary of
consideration, by the board.
Personal inquiry by Comr. Hudson re-
vealed the fact that Mr.. Crist had acted
as Davis attorney and had been instru-
mental in securing for his client com.
mutation of sentence by the governor
from seven years to five years and three
months. Mr.. Crist frankly stated that he
had received the money, as indicated by
the recorded item at the penitentiary.
He said DAVIS had sent for him and en-
ployed him, and that in the pursuit of his
professional business he had done the
best he could for his client. Mr.. Orist
said there was nothing to conceal in the
premises and that the record spoke for
itself.

ARTIFICIAL COTTON.
THE PLANTER HAS A NEW GoMPE-
 TlTlOR.
n Artifcal Product Made Out of Wood
 Pulp Discovered in Belgium.

WASHINGTON. D. C, March 23,-As if the unfortunate cotton planter has not enough to contend with in natural forces. the science of chem istry has been invoked to enter com petition against the great staple. United States Consul Morris, at Ghent, Belgium, in a special report to the state department describes ; new process of making artiIical cotton. which has been remarkably successful, the produce being much ehsaper than natural cotton, and possessflg most of is qualities. The basis is wood pulp. which, by 8 course of treatment, fully described by the consul. is changed into q pure celulose and spun into thread and then woven into cloth resembles ordinary cotton but has q slight de feet which, however, it.will be easy to remedy-that is, il isnot asstrong as ehc natural product. 1t weaves and works well, aud can be dyed as well as cotton. By coating it with paraffine and pressing it over glass, q beautiful nrilIianey may be gfyed to it. Much greater strength can be imparted by darehmentizing il when if acquires semi-3ransparencE.

That Match Factory.

A private letter te a friend ill this city from Col Wallace A. Downs, speaks most favorable of Pine Bluff aud it clearly indicated that our city
 wotAd be chosen as the site at which his company would locate a match factory if our people succeed in rais- ing the required bonus of $5,O00. This will assuredly be done as al- ready about 22,000 of the amount has been promised, and nothing as vet has been heard of the last com mittees appointed to canvass the city. Our business men and property owners should look to their interest in this matter, and give just as liber- ally as they can, for it means atleast $6o, ,O0O per year to be paid out here for labor alone, and all of this money will at once come back into the hands of the merchants.

LEWIS MORRISON
Will Appear at the opera-H ouse wednes-
 day Night in "Faust.

''Faust, presented by Lewis Nor rison, will serve to entertain the patrons of the Opera=house, Wednes- day night, March 2-
 Lewis Morrison is an actor who has been before the public for a num- ber of years. He has been the lead ing support of such stars as Forrest, Booth and other notable ones, and has been starring himselffor the last seven or eight years, appearing in a round Of legitimate roles. He soon found, however, that the Amer can people are prone to demand of an actor that he shall identity him- self with one character, and Morrison found his fate as Mephisto in Faust. Morrison is well equipped by nature for the portrayal of this part. having q flexible voice, and be ing 1.-the and acttyein physique.
 He makes the character an entirely different one from that of others who have played it, the Devil ill his hands becoming a plausible, smooth sort oi q fellow, one well calculated to en- trap the souls of men. In some scenes he really becomes witty, and, while this view of the character may not be an entirely correct one, it is certainly pleasing tothe audience.nor does it appear that it may not be the correct view after all, for whyshould satan take on repulsive form to tempt the unWary mortal The scene in which Mephisto takes Dr. Faustus to the summit of the eBrocken to witness the reyels of the imps and witches on" Walpurgus' might be described as particularly impressive and thrilling enough to sa tisfy the most blase theater goer.
 The singing is another feature which is introduced, although the productionis strictly dramatic one, and a male quartette is employed to render several musical numbers of 9 classical and appropriate nature.
 The Company includes a number of well known metropolitan artists who have been especially selected with view TO their fitness for the several roles fer which they are east. Miss Florence Roberts, a beautiful young woman,is cast for Marguerite, part which is said to fit her per fectly. She has been playing the role for the past two seasons, and has always received unstinted praise for her work.

The Auction Partv.

A lively crowd of young people, and not few widows, widowers and married couples attended an Auction Party at the residence of Mr, John NJ. Mccain, Friday evening. given by the young lady mem bers of the Epw0rth League of the Lakeside Methodist church.
 About o'clock the young ladies were placed in a room to themselves with words ringing in their ears, such as: "Now, my dear, just cough twice when they go to sell you, so will know" The young ladies were brought before the curtain one at a time and sold at auction to the high est bidder
 Mir. Edgar Brewster, with a bell in his hand, mounted table in the hall, surrounded by the eager faces of about twenty-five young men, and began his duty as auctioneer Mir. BreWster's experience as an auction eer must have been confined, hereto fore, to the sale of horses, for in describing the young ladies he spoke of them as sorrels, bays, roans, 14 and Is hands high; spirited, though gentle, etc. The sale of twenty ve young ladies was accomplished in about ten minutes, which shows the 1ap,ond fof. that kind of stOck
 After the sale the guests were in- vited into the spacious dining room where they were served with ice cream and cake. All present ex- pressed themselves as having very highly enjoyed the evening.
 The proceeds, which amounted to about $25, will be devoted to church purposes.

AFRICA FOR AFRICANS.
SENATOR MoRcAN's VIEWS ON THE
 RACE QUESTION.
Strong Arguments Presented for the General Transportation of the Negro fo His Farther
 land,

WASHINGTON, D. C., March 23.-Sen- ator Morgan, of Alabama, thinks the present exodus of negroes from the South to Africa will increase rapidly, and he believes the time will soon come when the government of the United States will take the matterup officially and aid in their deportation. Africa, he said in discussing the question, ''is the natural home of the negro, and majority of them desire to return to that country. They cannot we'll be blamed for entertain ing that wish, for there is nothing in this or any other white mans coun- try for the African race. Sufficient time has elapsed since the slaves were emancipated to demonstrate the white mans superiority in all the walks of life, and an observation is that most of the negroes already realize that if they remain here they will always occupy inferior positions, and continue as of old to be little more than servants.
 Senator Morgan also asserted that a large majority of the white p0pu- lation in the South will prefer to have the negroes go. It is certain, he said, that many planters, owners of large plantations, prefer to have them remain for the reason that they favor their labor in comparison with a certain class of whites, but this clement is in the minority, and the poorer whites and professional classes in the South prefer to have the negroes sent away. The pool white man does not want his com. petition and all classes object tC negroes in political affairs, as all fec they stand directly in the way of se- curing a more desirable class of res idents by preventing immigration. Furthermore, it is not true, as seems to be supposed, that only negroes can do labor in the Southern States, an assertion substantiated by the fact that the cotton crop of this country has increased from a little over 5000, ,000 bales before the war to 9,000,000 The Senator expressed the opinion that Congress would take the problem of exporting the negro in hand 1t no distant day, and said he expected within the next three or four years the government would be found providing means for their transportation.

Secretary Tankersley, of the Man ufacturers League, Saturday, re ceived q letter from Mr. David Not tage, stating that the water sent him for analysis had not been an alyzed, but that it would be this week. This letter shows that Mr Nottage and his friends still have their eyes upon Pine Bluff as the very place for the paper factory which they propose to build and op- crate at an early date. If the water proves to be free from iron, and the slight bonus required can be raised, this city will get this great indus trial enterprise, without oubt.
