SUMMER RESORTS.

the small piece of land that now re- mains in the rear of the county's valuable property.
 Our people should at once call mass meeting and take proper steps to notify our Senators and Congress- men Of the evil and call upon them to urge an appropriation by Con- gress to build the dikes higher so that they will perform the service for winch they were intended.
 This matter has already been neg lected too long, for with the settling ef the dikes away went all the good they Lad accomplished, and where sand bars had once been formed on this side of the river through their instrumentality, now there is the rapidly flowing water which is steadily and constantly eneroaehing on the bank on which stands prop erty valued at hundred of thousands of dollars. All of us are interested in the welfare of our city. and we must take steps 10 prevent such terrible destruction, and if anything is to be accomplished work to that end must be begun at once.

LARGE ORDERS FOR CAMPAIGN BUT
 TONS.
Here's a Tip for Local Aspirants
 for Office.

PHILADELPHIA, March 21-Sena- tor Quay does not propose to be out done when it comes to using the lit tle political button as a factor in campaigning fer the Presidential nomination Last week it became known that an order had been placed with a local manufacturer for a half-million buttons bearing the miniature likeness of Maj. Mckinley. No sooner had the news reached the ears of the Pennsylvania Senator than an order was sent to the same manufacturer for one million Quay buttons to be made in two designs, and it is said that these badges are intended to oatshine in costliness and uniqueness of design anything of the kind that will be distributed in the present campaign.

ThS Steam Heater Explodes and the Car Door Blown up on the Telegraph

4 telegram received here about s o'cock last evening announced that the steam heater in the Cotton Belt pay car blew up while the car was at Birds Point, at7 o'clock yester- day evening and wrecked the ear to a considerable extent. The rear car door was blown off with such force that it landed on tine telegraph wires No one was injured by the explosion and the car will probably leave Birds Point on it's southward trip Monday morning and will arrive here Tuesday evening.

A BIG TURNP.
It Weighs a Fraction Over Eight
 Pounds.

One Of the largest, if not the largest, turnips ever gro 1n in this county. is now on exhibition at the County Exposition building. It was grown in the garden of Mr E. D. Herin, who lives in the west end of the city The turntp weighs a fraction over eight pounds, and is thirty inches in circumference and eleven and oue-half inches in diameter. 1t is of the purple top variety. Nr. Herine also contributed to the Exposition some splendid specimens of pop corn.

DUR RIVER FRONT.
THE SPRING RISES WILL DO IT
 GREAT HARM.
The Dikes as They Are at Present
 Afford No Protection.

The people of Pine Bluff, and es- peeially those who own property along the river front, should at once be up and doing if they would save that property from being washed away. The present system of dikes is now of io service whatever, as the current of the river has been deheeted to this side and is now sweeping with such force against the bank on which Pine Bluff stands that it is steadily and rapidlycuttingit away.
 Just above the Water Works acres upon acres of ground have caved into the river, and from the Water Works down to the Cotton Belt shops the bank is eaying with frightful rapidi- ty. The dikes for year or more after they were built afforded great protection, but the mass of stone has gradually sunk lower and lower until now when q slight rise occurs the water sweeps over it and rushes against the bank with unchecked force When the spring rises in the river comes much valuable property all along the river front will be swept away. The Court House is threatened, for it will take the cur rent but short time to cut away
