IN NTEGMORIUM.

Died, of pneumonia, Feb. II, 1897, in Little Rock, Ark, Bessie E. Daniels, aged 10 years and months.
 The dear little hands that were always so busy on earth were so suddenly called to rest in a better land above. The dear little eyes that have closed tothe sufferings of earth, have opened in brighter and more beautiful world beyond. This precious child was beloved by all who knew her, and none knew her and loved her better than the writer whose cherished pupil she was for three years. Her guileless winning ways and affeetionate disposition, and her deferential manner to her seniors, ever thoughtful for the com fort of others, made her a favorite with every one. Truly itcan be said of her, none knew her, but to love her, none named her but to praise.
 Why should we mourn for one so pure and fair? Death comes t9 such as friend to open the gate that leads to our Fathers home, where the many mansions be, and God hath sent q shining retinue to bear hear from parental to angelic arms, where she will be forever safe.
 What mortal can have any idea of the beauty of the scenes in which she now commingles? She has heard the song the angels sing A home in heaven, a harp, a robe, a crown has been given her, and she has joined the angel choir.
 would calm the troubled hearts of grief-stricken father and brother, and other sorrowing relatives, with the blessed assurance that God is freely offering heavens treasurers to us all, and we may, if we are faithful see her and other dear ones again. For life IS us trnsient as q bubble on the wave: one by one we willi all soon come to the river -side-God help us to so spend the time that re mains to us that,
 ..We shall meet our loved and own,
 Some sweet day, some sweet day. Gathering round the great white throne
 Some sweet day. some sweet day
 By the tree of life so fair,
 Joy and rapture everywheHe Oh the bliss of over there,
 Some sweetday, some sweet day '.AUNTIE. ,

tArkansas Democrat.l

To show the way the Arkansas compromise is regarded by Speaker Reed, and his actions in regard to the matter in not allowing the Meik- lejohn amendment to be called up, the following telegram is reproduced as received by the Iron Mountain land department in reply to tele- gram asking for information this morning:
 WASHINGTON, D. G., Mar. s. G. A. A. Deane, Little Rock:
 Your telegram asking for informa- ton as to cause of failure to get recognition on Arkansas compro- mise bill received. The speaker stat ed that upon receipt of telegram from Gov. Jones serving notice that the State would not accept the bill as passed by Congress-that in view of this declaration he thought ht ought not 10 give recognition under a suspension of the rules, with limit ed debate, as he feared the State was getting the best of the government in the settlement.

APoWERFuL SERMON.
Preached by Evangelist r1erson at the
 Pr esbyterIan ehureh Last Night.

The Rev. R. G. Pierson preached to crowded congregation last night; every seat in the house was taken. The praise and prayer serv- ice conducted by Or. Caldwell began at 7:30 promptly, and at s o'clock pr Pierson commenced his sermon upon the subject, Regeneration. :. His text was taken from the seventh verse of the third chapter Of John, Marvel not that 1 said unto thee ye must be born again. For three quarters of an hour no congregation ever listened to a more powerful and convincing sermon. Although Dr. Pierson has only been here two or three days, he has proven himself to be one of the most forcible, clea and practical eyangelists that ever came to our city. He gives you the simple gospel truths as written in Gods word in such a plain and practical manner that it is bound to carry conviction with it. If you will only go and hear him once you will be anxious to go again.
 There were great many ladies out this morning at the woman's meeting, which was conducted by Mrs. Pierson, and those who attend ed say they wished every woman in town could have been present.
 The eleven o'clock service was largely attended, it was Bible reading and the subject was working for God. The subject of the sermon tonight will be ''The PaschalLamb' You will have to go early or you wont get seat.

THE TRlcksTeRs TRACKED.
A Lawsuit win Be tho Result of the Horse
 Race Thursday Afternoon.

Race Thursday Afternoon
 There are quite number of sore colored sports in Pine Bluff. This soreness is the result of a heavy blow their pocket books received by the termination of horse race which took place at Jones Park Thursday afternoon.
 A race between two horses was made up, on which two factions of the aforesaid colored sports wager ed about $4OO.
 One of the horses was owned by Wiley Jones. This horse was back ed by contingent headed by Joe Bearden to the extent of about $40O.
 The other horse was backed by Jim Havis, Forrest Gay and num- Der of their friends, to like amount.
 The Jones horse was well-known to be the faster and better animal but it seems that the Havis-Gay crowd of sports backed their animal for all the money Chat they could rake and serape up. for it is said that they believed they had hired John Mullins, the negro who drove the Jones horse, to throw the race, and allow the opposing and in ferior horse to win
 It seems that Mullins led the men to believe that he would throw the race up to the time the two horses were brought out on the track. The two horse were started, and instead of MulIin throwing the race, he did his best to win, and did win, by a good long distance
 Here the trouble oyer the wagers begun. The money wagered on the result of the race was in the hands of stake-holders, and when the Havis-Gay sports saw how they had been caught in their own trap, they went to the stake-h holders and order ed them not to turn over the money they held to the winners.
 This forced the crowd who had wagered their money on the Jones horse to appeal to the. law to get the money they had won. Therefore, Joe Bearden, in the Jus tiee Court of ". D. Vance, replevi- ed $230 of the money held by John Young, stakeholder, and SIS held by Mont Morris, another stake, holder.
 Both sides to the wagers have em- ployed eminent legal talent to fight their eases before the courts, and at the present time most of the money bet on the race is being held by the Constable until the courts decide ownership.
 The manner in which the trick sters got caught in their own game is causing no little amusement in horse racing and betting circles in this city.
