She Lends n Helping Hand to the ostracized
Brother Of Her husbands Assassin
4 little story drifts over from Eu-
rope. illustrating the large-heartedness
of Nine. Carnot. 1t seems that the
brother of her husbands assassin, in
spite Of an excellent character. found
It impossible to gain employment any
where after the murder.
At last. after having nearly starved
IN Paris. he "tramped" into Italy.
where he suggested in getting the post
OF porter in a monastery. All went
we'll until one day the head Of the chap
ter discovered his name and antece-
dents. when he was Immediately dis
n. ssed.
However. 2 gentleman who heard the
story, undertook to write to Nine. Car
not on Carrosier's behalf, and in re-
turn received a letter promising that he
should have food and employment as
long as she lived. 1t only remains TO
be said that Nine Garnet was as good
as her word, and that her strange pro-
tege is now q thriving and respected
shopkeeper n Paris.

this result to abandon the idea of di- acreage would be to sound the retreat in the face of victory. It is the coneersus of opinion among the best. thinkers that if by any means the cotton crop of America could be held within the limits of ' 1000, 900 bales per annum for ten years, the people of these Southern States would be tke richest and most prosperous agricultural people in the world. How can this be drought about? The answer is with you. We appeal to your self-interest and to your patriotism to do all in your power to keep down the production of the staple. Do not abandon the ground you have won. Fight on upon the lines laid down, make the cotton States self-supporting, put more land in clover and grasses for your hogs to run on, diversity your crops and when you have done all this the area devoted to cotton will yield more profitable returns than if you sought to increase the number of your bales.
 It is felt by the most thoughtful men that we are entering upon year of great uncertainties, and that even small cotton crop may fail to give adequate returns for its pro- dution. The mutterings of a storm are disturbing the country and un- settling all business calculations. The prudent man will trim his sails
 to meet it. With the commerce of l 1.-the country interrupted by war and war may come-cotton would be
 unstable except at nominal prices.
 Every consideration, then, of patri-
 otism, of self-interest and of pru-
 dence dictates that you adhere strictly to the rule of diminished
 acreage. Earnest men are earnestly
 working to lead you and guide you
 into prosperity. Do not let them
 labor in vain, but cheerfully and
 hopefully respond to their appeal.

Was Overloaded in the Fire at Eli Dorado and Is Very
 Low.
1t Is Thought the Block Burned Out VIII
 Soon He Rebuilt sa Bricks.

EL DORADO, ARK, Jan. 23 In the fire Monday morning the county jail came very near burning. The roof caught, but was extinguished with but little damage. The Court house and clerks office was in dan ger at one time, but escaped. All the houses destroyed were business houses, and constituted the best in the place
 El Dorado has not had a fire on the square in it's history, and it is about half century old, and during all these years only three or four residences have burned, and one of them last month, but the conhagra- tion night before last paid up for all. The estimated loss of the block is now $45, 900, with only about 1920, GOO insurance.
 T. T. Sheppard, the Mayor of our town, and Poland Thompson are lying quite low today from being overloaded at the fire. MT. E. W. Culp, depot agent, received a severe cut on his head by a bucket of water falling from the Ihouse. Two or three negroes were also overloaded, but are better today.
 Some think the fire was incen- diary in it's origin, but the cause so far is unknown. The block will, it is now thought, be rebuilt at once

AN ADDRESS TO PLANTERS.
The Cotton Growers of America Recommend a 100000 Bale Crop for Ten
 Years.

The American Cotton Growers tion, which met in Memphis on the 2lst inst, adopted the follow ing resolutions:
 To the Cotton Growers of America
 The Cotton Growers Protective Association of America, in conven- tion assembled at Memphis, Tenn, on this, the 21st day of January, 1896, again come to you with an urgent appeal for cooperative ac- tion in planting the crop for 1896. It is matter of extreme congratu- lation that the appeal made to you last year was so generally respond ed to and that the crop of 1895, made upon the diminished acreage. has had the etfect.of greatly increasing the price and bringing prosperity to the country. The crop of 1895, though estimated to be ,, 400, 900 short of the crol, of 1894, was in the market of the world worth more by nearly $30,000, 900. In the face of

4 German Immigrant Purchases a Railroad Ticket to Kansas City and Then Shoots
 Himself.

A suicide occurred at Clarendon at a late hour Wednesday night which was in some respects some what singular.
 James Bell, supposed to be an inn migrant from Kansas, stopped over in Clarendon for a short time. Wednesday night, just before the ar, rival of the north-bouud passenger train, Bell entered the ticket office and purchased a ticket to Kansas City and then stepped out on the platform of the depot, drew pistol and deliberately shot himself through the head. The trainmen of the passenger train discovered Bells body, which, on their arrival, had not grown cold In the pockets of the dead man was found $25 in money, watch and the railroad ticket
 There was not the slightest elew as to why the stranger committed suicide, unless it was the dread of again going to Kansas City and leaving Arkansas.

News of the murder that occurred on the Atkins place, below this city, on Tuesday night, reached Pine Bluff yesterday evening.
 On that plantation live two negro men, John Brown and Will Garrett. 1t seems that Garrett owed Browns nephew the small sum of thirty sents, which he refused to pay. Brown met Garrett and the men quarrled over the matter when Gar rett pulled q pistol and shot Brown to death. The fugitive then fled and up to the hour of going to press he had not been captured.

BET WIEN DREW AND RYAN,
 CASEY AND LAYTON.
Patrons of Pugilistic Sport Enjoyed Rare Sport Last Night at 12
 O'Clock.

A late h0nr last night Manager Portis, of the Pine Bluff Athletic Association, was quietly moving about the city calling on his friends and giving them a tip" that there would be great sport at the asssocia- tion's arena at l2 o'clock that night, and asking them to be present. The GRAPHIC reporter was of the number, and at the appointed time he re- paired % the associa tion's room and found present nearly one hundred admirers of pngilistic sport
 It was announced that there wOuld he two bouts, the first q friendly three-round go between Joe Drew and Ryan, of Chicago. Both men entered the ring about the same time and were given a warm reception. The customary preleminaries were gone through with and the sparring begun. It was pretty work, and while it was apparent to all that Ryan was the quicker with his "mits," it could also be seen that his blows had no effect on the little "pine knot"- Drew. At the close of the bout honors between the two men were about even.
 The Ego" of the evening was that between Billy Layton and Casey, of Chicago. Casey entered the ring first and announced that the con test had heen arranged for the purpose of letting the people see that he could box, and then if possible to arrange a match with Layton.
 Both men stripped and appeared pretty evenly matched as to weight, but to the observant eye it was at once evident that Layton was far superior to his opponent, both Tn science, muscle and endurance. The tipht began and while Casey did some pretty work it was at once seen that he was in no condition and that Layton simply played with him as cat would mouse, and simply punched him at will, and for fun took several severe blows from Casey to show that the Iatter eould not hurt him. The third and last round was hot one, at least Casey thought so, for

he was about winded when the gong sounded and saved him from goih out.
 Everyone present say that the two "gees" were the most spirited and scientific ever seen here.
 An effort is being made to arrange a match between Billy O'Donnell and Ryan. Layton is to fight Fran k White, of Denver, on the 18th, and as tip" from the GHAPHIc he is a sure winner.
