THAT is THE CHARGE AGAINST
REV j.. H. HUNNIGUF.
1t Is Alleged That lie became Enraeed

MoRRILLroN, Feb. 1l.-Rey. J. H.
Hunnieut, a local preacher in the
Baptist Church, was arrested last
night and lodged in the city Gala

enraged at the child for crying, and
that he took hold of it aud slapped

PROGRESS oF THE SOUTH.
The Land of Prosperity and Plenty
What the Manufacturers Re
cord Says of the Southern
States.

Mr.. II. II. Edmonds, the editor OF
the Manufacturer Record, II com.
mereial journal of high authority,
has this To say with reference TO the
progress Of the Southern states dur
ing the past year:
THE revival OF the iron business
during 1895 put into operation many
idle furnaces, made n henvy increase
in the output OF coal and iron ore,
aud at the close Of the year the pro-
daetion OF iron and the output Of
coal are at a heavier rate than at
any former time in the history OF the
South. With all of its iron and
kindred interests ON a basis now
acknowledged throughout the world
of the most solid and enduring char
aeter, the future OF these industries
in the South is far more promising
than during The hoom period OF Il
few years pas :. when the world at
large had not eompreheAdea the
magnitude and solidity OF the metal
lnrgical interests of the South. At
the close Of the year arrangements
are now completed for blowing in
several other furnaces which have
been undergoing repairs and in the
early part Of HE new yenr the
already heavy production OF iron in
the South will be materially in
creased.
Cotton mill building in the South
in 1895 was phenomenal. The aggre-
gate number of spindles for new
mills undertaken during the year
and for engagements of old mills
was, in round numbers, about one
million, or probably twice as great
AZ ever before recorded in one year.
During the year the South's pre-
eminent advantages for this indus
try We're for the first time fully and
completely admitted by the foremost
textile authorities OF the world. In
round numbers the South has now,
including mills in operation and
those under construction, or for
which the money has been raised,
about four million spindles in sight,
all of which will be in full operation
before the close of the present year.
1.-THE tide of population, which for
a year or more has been slowly turn
ing aonthward, has swelled during
the last twelve months To great
magnitude. Throughout the North
and West thousands OF people are
turning southwark, and the outlook
indicates that within the next few
years as many settlers from outside
will come into the South as went
into the Northwest fifteen or twenty
years ago, when that country was
being opened up to civilization. .

A SANDER on Senator Jones
Refuted.
A SANDER

A number of Clarke organs have
been engaged in the practice of
making unbecoming insinuations
against Senator james X. Jones
because of the fact that he owns q
home in Washington.
Some OF these newspapers have re-
ferred to it as Jones palatial
residence In Washington, and have
turned around and asked the uues-
ton how did he get 1t on salary
OF $4,000 Year,"
Recently the editor of the Horatio
Herald wrote Senator Jones acauain-
ting him with these destinations.
To which Senator Jones replied as
follows, explaining every detail In
connection with his Washington res
idenee:
DEAR SRI thank you for your
letter and hasten to reply. The
statement that / am millionaire or
! that am in any materially different
financial situation now from what
+, was when | entered public life 10
absolutely without foundation.
presume that an idle story pub
lished some time ago by some news
| paper man unknown to me, but who
was, | suppose, anxious to make q
sensation to the effect that I had
helped a poor inventor to perfect
cotton press and that as d result of
my kindness | was likely to become
a millionaire was the basis of the re-
port you mention.
While some of the facts stated In
this report were true, that part of 1t
relating To my financial prospects
are altogether imaginery and un-
founded.
Another story circulated In some
places and with variations to suit
the purpose In eachcase is that live
in very fine house, and In some To-
calities 1t is by insinuation THAT
fayorite method with the baser sort
OF liars Of creating false impressions)
suggested that my house and jay
NAcui'i . fff' WHY Hlutti ditke.
The simple truth about my home
is this: | had u large family and
could not we'll live with them In a
hotel on my salary. Torrent a house
would cost $75 to 800 per month.
| found house that / could buy for
$500. had $4,000 and borro we'd
$4,000, giving n mortgage on the
house To secure it. The Interest on
the debt cost me $3.50 per year and |
hoped that could pay from $75 to
Sl0O per month on the debt and after
awhile have the house clear OF en-
cunbranee. Unfortunately like
many another man who has under
taken to pay off Il mortgage, my
calculations did not come out as ex-
peeted and | have only been able SO
far to reduce the mortgage debt to
"a. 500.
The lot on which my house stands
is twenty COO feet by one hundred
aud ten (l10) feet deep and Ii worth
about rs 600 The whole propertv
house aud lot costing $4,000, you
readily see that $500 stands for the
value OF the house. 1t was simply
tile cheapest way for me to live.
This is the simple truth, and the
whole trnth.
Yours truly,
JAMES K. JONES.

INTERESTING CIVIL SUIT.
Who Owns the South Commons Is
the Point Chancellor Rob
inson Will Have
to Decide.

The Chancery Court is engaged
today in the trial Of one of the most
Interesting and important cases
which has ever come before it. The
facts, in brief, are that in 1886
Messrs. Davis, pinkard, Chowning
and Dawson, who owned the eighty
acre tract comprising the original
town of Pine Bluff, caused it to be
surveyed into lots, blocks and
streets and filed and recorded a plat
OF the town. In this survey strip
OF land, about 100 feet wide and
half mile long, on the south side Of
the town was left and, dedicated as
a public common and is known a.

HIS DEATH A HORRIBLE ONE
Dependency, Caused By Being Ont
of Employment and Money, Sup.
posed to be the Cause of His
Last Rash Act.

MIR. Z. W. Dowell IL dead! lie
died shortly before IL O'Clock m, to-
day, at his residence on the corner
of Sixth avenue mud State street,
in most horrible manner from the
effects Of 1--we grains of stryehnine
taken with suicidal intent.
For several months Mr.. Dowell
had been very respondent because
he was unable to obtain any kind of
employment, and this, together with
the fact that in the past year he lost
heavily at card playing. is supposed
to be the cause OF his last desperate
act.
lie took the stfyehnine at II
O'Clock while his wife, who keeps
boarding house, was in the dining
room assisting the cook in prepar-
ing dinner. About fifteen minutes
later the fact was discovered and
physicians were summoned and
every thing possible was done to
counteract the effects Of the poison,
but without avail. The poison had
entered the system, and the stomach
pump and antidotes had no effect.
Thirty minutes after taking the
poison Mr.. Dowell went into con
yulsions and suffered the greatest
agony. He was conscious up to the
last eonpulsion, which occurred
three-quarters of an hour after hi.
swallowed the poison, and he recog-
nized those friends who had gathered
around his bedside. Between the
commissions he begged those stand
ing by to kin him and get him out OF
his misery.
Yesterday afternoon MFR. Doweil,
with n number OF friends. were play
ing u game of poker and he lost 50.
&hen he lost his last e.chip7 he
showed his chair back from the table
aud remarked: 81 swear that Will
never play another game OF cards for
money" He then got up and left the
room. This morning he seemed
about az cheerful as usual and his
wife and other inmates OF his home
had no idea that he even contem-
plated taking his own life.
G. w. Dowell, or "Cliff'' DoWell as
he was usually called by his friends
and he had many of them-had
lived in Pine Bluff nearly a quarter
of a century. He was man that
always attended strictly to his own
affairs and never in any manner
meddled with those of his neighbour
He was the personification OF honor,
and his word could be implicitly re-
lied upon. For number of years
he was engaged in the saloon bust
ness After that he conducted q
pool and billiard hall In later years
when he could get work as n bar
fender, he did it; but, falling in this,
he opened IA poker room. He suffered
severe losses at this and closed his
rooms. Since that time he has done
nothing but play cards occasionally,
with the hope of making his expen-
SEES, but a streak of i'll lu.k was ON
him and he invariably lost.
He was a member of the following
orders, In which he carried life insur-
and to the amount of $4,000 The
Elks, Knights of Pythias, Knights OF
Honor and Royal Arcanum.
He leaves a devoted and noble wife
to mourn his sad end.
