MILLION BALES IN ARKANSAS
St. Louis Experts Make Predictions
 on the Yield in This State.

Government bulletins on the cotton prospects, especially in Arkansas, continue to be most favorable.
 A million bales from Arkansas would not surprise the local factors, and it is an assured fact that the quality of the Arkansas cotton this year will be better than ever. It has always been of high grade, but thus far the climatic conditions have teen exceptionally favorable. Never since the famous 1S94-95 yield have the estimates for a years cotton been so high as they are now. That famous crop yielded 9,90l ,251, rising again to S,495, ,000 bales in the 1S96-97 crop which just being wound up.

 The session of the Grand Lodge was one of the most important and pleasant ever held by the colored Masons of Arkansas
 l And more intelligent body of colored citizens never assembled in 1 the State. In evidence of this fact we give the names of the following well known and able colored men who were here on the occasion: J N. Donahoo. of Helena; M. A. Clark, Marianna;J J E. Peek, Ark adelphia; $. T. Boyd, Prescott; c. N. Johnson, l Texarkaha: J H Blount, Forest City. There are only a few of tho guiding spirits of the colored Masons who attended the Grand Lodge. l Add them to the list of our intel- lectual and able colored citizens, viz. Prof. J. c. Gorbin, James Jones, A. M Middlebrooks, Ferd Havis, Alex Moon, Lewis Johnson, and it will be seen that the Masonic Lodge has the ablest, most progressive and enlightened coIored men i'll the State for members.
 The grand parade of the Grand Lodge Friday afternoon was quite an event, anu the procession was b large and imposing one.
 The installation exercises took place at Jones' hall Friday night and was most impressive.
 During the evening a pleasing feature of the exercises was sur-l prise rendered the Worthy Grand Master, Mir. Nj. A. Clark, and the Grand Secretary, Prof. J. c. Corbin. by the Grand Lodge delegates.
 Editor J. N. Donahoo, of the Helena Progress, took the floor, and in most happy manner and with choice words, in behalf of the Grand Lodge delegates, presented Grand Z Master Clark with very handsome silver water service.
 Editor Donahoo was followed by MT. s. H. Blount, who in felicltous speech in behalf of the Grand Lodge, presented Grand Secretary COrbin with an exquisite and costly silver coffee service.
 Prof. Corbin in one of the oldest as we'll as one of the most prominent : colored Masons in Ars ansas. He has had the honor of icing elected and : installed Grand Secretary of the order for twenty-rix consecutive years, and by the presentation of the costly gift on Friday evening
 the Grand Lodge gave testimonial to the value and appreciation in which he and his services are held. Mir. Clark has served the Grand Lodge as Grand Master for eighteen years. He is 8 very able man and the right man for the exalted posi- tion he fills.

PETER, DENNIsON AND OTHERS
And How the Senatorial Scenes are Ever
more Being shifted

Topeka, Kan, Jan. 13.-(Special)-
Rumors Of all sorts of combinations on
United States senator were in circulation
here this morning, and there has been
more shifting of deals in the last twenty
four hours than at any time since the
opening OF the fight. Breidenthars little
cuickstep of Sunday night and Monday
has settled down, and the impression is
current that Colonel Harris is moving
up IT, the race. 1t is thought that the
Democratic members of the legislature
who are now insisting that they should
have this place, will go TO Harris if they
tail to unite on man, which is very
probable. At this time it does not ap-
pear that the Democrats will be able 10
get together on their candidate unless
Martin and Overmy er should voluntar-
liy withdrawn in support of Atwood,
which is simply out of the question
speaking from a Democratic standpoint.
If Kies of Wichita and Naugle of Wei
iington should, in return for tip on the
state printer fight, throw their sixteen
votes from the Fourth and Seventh
congressional districts to Harris. the
8reidehthal and Harris forces would, in
Ire event OF either alone being hopeless
