There is a probability that Lonoke
will soon have electric lights, as
there is a company OF Lonoke men
at work to that end. Nearly 200
lights subscribed for. This would
be great convenience to our town
and a saving to the business men.
The lights will cost 50 cents each per
month, which is cheaper thanco oil
and a great deal more cleanly. Lon

Mark Twain is still in debt, but he
is paying it off in large chunks and
in time to come will wipe it all Off.
that is the debt his company piled up,
rather than himself. Mark ap-
pears to better advantage in
this role than receiving cash testlmo-
malls from his friends on account of
his poverty. Mark is hard at work
honestly trying, and with every pros
pect of succeeding, TO pay off the debt
of his publishing company. This is
creditable to his pocket and his prin-
ciples.

There are here and there to be
found men of intelligence among the
Republicans, who are opposed to Haw-

hampered by traditions and represent

the nation favor that measure, re-
CARELESS of politics. 1t does NOT al
ways say so, but it does. For politl-
cal effect it may possibly be defeated
in Congress, as it was by Cleveland
five years ago, but it will only be to
deprive the Republican party of the
credit of accomplishing it,

John Wesley long ago pre-empted the

all the good tunes. Now comes the
rector of a large Protestant Episcopal
church in Jersey City and declares that

young people to dance, but
that he will take charge of
that branch of their education him
self. He accordingly establishes dane
ing classes at the lowest possible fig
ure for good training. That clergyman
has sense of the fitness of things,
understands the wants of the present

colleges to so modify the rules govern

the change should come, and not by
harsh and prohibitory legislation
knocking the sport out of time and
