An Indianian, being Tilted, ate three
bars of soap. Don't set him down at
once as a would-be suicide. He may
be a philosopher. He was sick with
love- He wanted to be cured of it.
The condition of the stomach has much
to do with the degree of love, in very
many cases. The Indiana man perhaps
knew that the divine emotion would
not trouble a man who had three bars
of soap in his stomach. The man may
have trouble with his soap, but he'll
hardly be able, in the future, to think
of the girl without that strong, soapy
taste in his mouth. In short, he's
cured. And at three bars of soap, it's
q dirt cheap cure, too.

A romantic story comes from Spain.
A female pastry cook in Madrid claims
to have recognized her lost husband
in brigadier general Her story is
that he was a cobbler when she mar
ried him. more than forty years ago,
and that he left her and enlisted in the
army. He has now, she says, taken
the name of a former comrade, whose
widow he had married. She has de-
scribed a number of private marks,
which are said to have been discovered
on the body of her quondam spouse.
No doubt strawberry mark on his
left arm was one of them. If this
story has any moral, it is that from
the high rank which this man has at
tained a shoemaker should not al
ways stick to his last !

MADE A BAD BREAK.
PoPULl5T CAMPBELL CHARGES FRAUD IN THE JEFFERSON COUNTY
 ELECTION.
Judge Jonas Calls the Pop Down and
 Makes linn Take Hackwater.

\ picnic took place at Gantrell Springs about lH miles from this city last Friday at which q breezy incl dent occurred that was not down on the program.
 All the county candidates and several citizens of Pine Bluff were invited to attend the picnic and address the assembled multitude,
 Messrs. J. A. Bain and A. [. Camp bell. the two Popnlist candidates for Representative. were also present and made speeches.
 After lengthy discussion of the financial question, Populist Camp bell delivered himself of a tirade against the election law and took occasion to say that he had undis- puted proof Of tue facs that the officers of this county had com mitted fraud at the last election.
 Judge N D. Jones was the only officer present, and Campbell looking and poip ting in the direction where Judge Jones was sitting, the latter arose and inquired of the speaker if he (Camnleln meant him (Jones).
 Campbell promptly replied that he did not mean him in particular, but fl the shoe iii he was welcome to wear it.
 As soon as Campbell had concluded there were cries of "Jones, "Jones!' Judge Jones promptly responded and in the course of his remarks he said that the last election was universally conceded to be fair and honest one, and anyone who charged che contrary lied"
 Campbell was standing about 30 feet from the platform at the time. He rushed forward i'll an excited manner and exclaimed: Do you mean to say that l lied??''
 Judge Jones hesitated, and look 1 ing his antagonist straight in the face, drew himself up his full length, and said: If ms remarks fit the gentleman, I mean them for him.
 Everybody expected to see Camp bell, from the menacins attitude he had assumed, make grand rush for the platform. But he didn't. It was only 3 grand stand play. When Judge Jones threw down the gauntlet oa the sslie, , Campbell stop ped, ran his hand down into his pocket, pulled ont his pocket-book and said: How much will you bet on it2"
 Then everybody laughed and ap- plauded, after which Campbell again, asserted Chat he had money to bet that hecould prove what he said was true.
 Judge Jones replied from the platform that after the conclusion i of his speech he would take any bet for any amount that Campbell would wager on the propositioa,
 But after the speaking WAS over the Populist orator stated that he meant the last Democratic pri- malies and not the last county election, so the bet was declared of and the incident passed away with out the loss of either blood or money.
 The other speakers at the picnic were W. T. Woodbridge, J. Y. Saun- ders and ". .G. Streett. There was a lage attendance from town, especially in the after noon.

A CARD.
To the Editor of the GRAPHIC,

To the Editor of the GRAPHIC,
 DEAR SIR: Referring to the pro- ceedings of the Sound Money Demo- lerats your paper said: "Mr. John NJ. Taylor, the corporation lawyer. who was so active in aiding the Federal authorities to arrest a number of the A. R. G. men in this city and other parts of the State during the strike several years ago, introduced 1 the following resolution, which was unanimously adopted. Every labor ing man, and particularly labor union men, should carefully read this resolution, consider it's source, and ] then compare it with the platform of the true Democratic party. The comparison is sure to result in yer dict favorable to the Chicago plat ] form y
 ! appreciate the compliment you pay ne in designating me as a cor l poration lawyer; but, as 1 do not recall that it ever became necessary to arrest any A. R. U. men in Pine l Bluff, and as l was active only in seeing that the property of the rail- roads was protected. and in having enjoined from interfering with the movements of trains, strikers. and men engaged in riot at the Valley depot. l desire to know if you con- demn such q course, or did you ap- prove such lawful protection of property, under the circumstances thu surrounded us in 1894? Did you stand with the president and the courts, or did you go with Debs and approve his methods?
 l am anxious that my position be not nisrcpresented, and think the public should know how you, tnot your reporter) stand on this question now, as well as in 1891. Truly,
 JNo. NJ. TAYLOR.

X light and scattering vote was boiled last week in the contest for a scholarship in Nettleton's Conner cial College, as indicated above. The contestants are each endeavoring, apparently. to outgeneral the other by reserving their strength for the last quarter. A few single scatter- ing votes were east last week for parties who have not heretofore entered the race, and these coupons have all the ear-marks of q 'i0sh' for the parties for whom they were cast, therefore thenames of all those who have not received mere than one vote have been purposely omit ted from the above list.
 s3aSIiss Mary Lindsay, having decided to attend school at Searcy, has withdrawn from the contest. This leaves the race exclusively among young men, but since they are all hustlers, no doubt 2 large vote will be polled, this, the last week of the contest.
 PRICES OF PAPERS.
 In consequence Of the scholarship contests now being conducted by the GRAPHIC, there is q great demand for extra papers. We have therefore adopted the following scaleloi rates for the same: 200 copies or less, , cents each: over 200 and up to 800 copies, at 4 cents each: 1000 and over, at 2& cents each. Each newspaper hHs VwocouppDs-one for the Mozart and one for Nettleton. Place Xaur orders early il yoa don't want to get left.

 distance of the top, and she is rA- gafded by the other contestants as
 q dangerous rival No candidate is
 sufficiently in the lead to feel safe, and q few hundred votes would
 make a very material change in the position of the leaders. There is but oBe more week of the contest the contest closing next Saturday night at midnight-and the final
 result k in as much doubt as ever ,, From the interest already manifest ed in the race the indications are
 that there will be great activity among the candidates and their friends, and an immense vote boiled this week. The Mozart scholarship
 represents value of $50.00, and is
 well worth the best efforts of the candidates and their friends.
 The GRAPHIC gives the scholarship freely. and We only regret that all the candidates cannot win.

The announcement that arrange

There are more professional loafers
and petit larceny thieves in Butte this
winter than Their have ever been, and
the problem of how to get rid Of them
has given the authorities a good deal
Of anxiety. The county jail has been
greatly oVercrOwded for some time, and
il now contains more than 100 male
prisoners There are so many or them,
i'm fact that quite a number have 10
sleep in the corridors, as there Is no
room In the cells for them. The city
Jail is also filed up with petty offenders
of all descriptions, and their board bill
for February will reach quite large
| figure even at 10 cent meals.
| Things came TO a climax last evening
when George Edwards and Jack Nc
| Donald, two vags who were up before
Judge Holland, had to be turned loose
| on account of there being no room for
! them in the county Jail. They were not
| told the reason for being given their lib
| erty on account of the bad effect that
| such information might have, but were
! given q hours in which to leave town.
| County Commissioner Lloyd stated last
evening after learning of this case that
| the prisoners who are confined in the
| county Jail for minor offenses. such as
| vagrancy and petit larceny, will be put
TO work at once.
The new codes are at least an inn
| provement on the old laws insofar az
they relate to the treatment OF prison
ers. Section 3O3S of the penal code pro-
| vides that persons confined in the
county Jail under a judgment Of inn

Commissioner LLOYD states that i'm

section, and that the county prisoners
will be put to work on the road OF

be a profitable investment for the city
