ence in the case of two American sail

No charges were preferred against
Them and after three weeks they were
released. one having contracted rheu-
matism in prison, the other yellow
fever Their attorneys presented claims
TO the state department and the case is
still pending, although Spain has twice
refused to pay indemnity, claiming that
the appearance of the sailors in boat
without clearance papers. at about the
time of the first filibustering expedi-
tions, warranted their arrest and that
the proceedings against them were the
shortest permitted by the laws; that
their statements did not agree and were
evidently false.

NOT LIKELY TO WITHDRAW.
The Intimation From Hunter Thought
to BE a Bluff.

FRANKFORT. Ky, April 21.-The
statement given out by Hunters friends
that he had already prepared card
withdrawing from the senatorial race
has served to bring another big crowd
OF politicians to the capital. Many of
those who arrived came to urge him to
remain on the ticket and the others are
candidates who hope to be made the
new nominee.
The truth seems to be that the mis-
sion OF both sides is useless one.
Hunter, the knowing ones say, NAV
have prepared such a statement, but he
is not preparing to Withdraw. His
enemies say his intimations that he will
Withdraw are made only for effect and
That when the Franklin grand jury ad-
journs he will once more boldly claim
his right to fight it out ON this line if
IL takes all summer.

lection and he had brushed from them the few fecks of mud they had encoun- tered on the way up. He looked as- suringly at the house, with its pretty flower beds on the lawn and the trel- lised porch, upon which stood rock ing-chair, Miss Betty's favorite seat. Throwing the lines over post, to await Peters attention, the young captain sauntered towards the house, and just as he mounted the steps vision of love- Illness appeared.
 Miss Betty was simply but tastefully dressed and looked very pretty thus ar rayed.
 She smiled a cordial welcome to the officer as he came on and took his out stretched hand without a show of treachery.
 Though we differ about the war, Capt. Lee" said she, in her sprightly manner, "I cannot help asking you for the latest news from the front"
 "There is but little to communicate. There has been no set engagement of late; the two armies seem to be plan ming for position, and it is doubtful if a battle will come off for some time.'
 That is good. I do not like to hear of bloodshed. It is bad enough in this part of the country between the for ayers, but when large armies meet in deadly conflict it is much worse. Still" and her eyes seemed to sparkle, i've cannot gain our independence without some bloodshed."
 Capt. Lee smiled.
 "I will never be able to convince you, see" he said. Like Ephraim, Miss Betty. you are joined to your idols"
 "Yes, captain, to the idols of liberty and prosperity for America. You must

A faint smile appeared at Betty's mouth as she perused the acceptance and placed it beside the one from her patriotic lover.
 Capt. Lee had met her during one of the many incursions made by the royal dragons along the Hudson, and. though an enemy to American freedom. the girl had found him an agreeable visitor. Ignorant of Capt. James mis- fortune, she invited the British officer to dine with her on the Fourth, as she lived almost alone in the old home stead, her parents having died a short time prior to the beginning of hostili- ties.
 The Imprisonment of Capt. James would naturally interfere with the pleasures of the coming day, but when the morning of the Fourth came there were no traces of regret on the fair rebels face.
 At ten o'clock Peter, who had been sent to certain point from which the road leading to New York was visible for a long distance, came back with a broad grin on his face.
 ''I was thinking, Miss Betty. what a nice thing it would be if we could just contrive to exchange Capt. Nolan for Capt. Lee"
 The girl seemed to start.
 What nonsense, Peter!" she ex- claimed. Whatever put that idea into your head?"
 Tt just walked in," smiled the man. You see, they're equal in rank and"
 Captains both" broke in the girl, looking across the porch from the open door. These Utopian schemes don't always come out successful"
 Very well, just give it for what it is worth, "Nand Peter bowed himself out of the girls presence, and Betty was alone again.
 What good guesser Peter is," she smiled to herself. Surely have not betrayed myself, and no one, I hope. has let the cat out of the bag. I'll just give Peter credit for good guessing, that's all," and she went to her bou- doir to dress for the officers reception.
 The old-fashioned clock in the wide hallway was striking II when a hand some young officer in the somewhat hashy uniform of the Royal Dragons, one of the crack regiments in the kings service, drew rein in front of the house and dismounted.

admit that you find our soldiers men difficult to conquer. When people fight for their homes and native land they do not give up the struggle without a terri ble contest"
 But in this case they are rebellious and the king will not stop short of their entire subjection."
 The young girls gaze wandered from the room. and for a little while seemed to rest on the bushes on the lawn.
 Suddenly, however. she turned again to the officer and said:
 "One of my friends has had the mis- fortune to become prisoner of war"
 Indeed, Miss Betty!" exclaimed Capt. Lee, in the most innocent manner possible. But that is one of the vicis- situdes of war. Your friend must put up with it and consider that imprison- ment is far better than being left on the battlefield"
 "1 do not doubt that, but confine- ment to Capt. James is irksome, to say the least"
 The British officer seemed to start a little at mention of his rivals name.
 Capt. James is confined in New York" continued Betty. He was cap tured in a skirmish and hurried thither Exchange is hardly to be thought of you know, since our people do not hold as prisoner an officer of equal rank"
 The conversation now drifted to other subjects. and Capt Lee was most pleasantly entertained by his fair host ess.
 He knew that Betty Logan was in- tensely loyal to the cause of the col onies; but out of respect for her ap- parent helplessness her property had not been disturbed, though on several occasions several spies had been tracked to it.
 Her only servants were Peter and a housemaid as loyal as her mistress, and with these Betty, the fair rebel. in babited the little home near the Hud- son in almost open defiance of the sol diers of the king.
 Fond of music, Capt. Lee importuned his hostess for song, and. rising, Betty swept to the instrument in one corner of the cozy parlor.
 ''What are your favorites, captain?' she asked, with a sly look over her shoulder.

A Distinguished Visitor.

One of the most notable visitors dur ing the sessions of the convention was Mrs. A. J. Marshall, pioneer in educa- tional work in this state, and now resident of Camden. Mrs. Marshall. then Miss James, left her English home in the year 1s42 for the United States as missionary teacher, and for sev- eral years resided in New England. teaching and studying American meth ods of government. In 1S46 Miss James became interested in society formed in Boston for the purpose of sending teachers to the west to establish Pro- testant schools, and a year later ac- cepted position in female seminary at Fayetteville to teach vocal and in- strumental music, the higher branches of English and French, painting, draw. ing, plain and fancy needle work Here, in the 40's, was created, through the efforts of Misses Sawyer and James, an educational interest that has never lan- guished, and finally eliminated in no less an institution than the Arkansas Industrial University. In the year 1s4s Miss James was married to an itinerant Methodist minister, the Rev. l.. s. Marshall, the ceremony being solem- nized by Rev. W. M Stout of the Episcopal church. To the wife of Methodist minister of an early day op- portunities for missionary work were ever abundant and were not unimprov- ed by Mrs. Marshall, and part of almost every year was spent in teaching. In 1862 Mrs. Marshall was left widow with one son, and for many years she pursued her loved avocation, thus se- curing independence and educating her son until he was competent to care for both. As Mir. Louis Marshall he now stands among the prominent business men of Camden, and with his interest ing family his estimable mother makes her home. Mrs. Marshall is now in her eighth-fifth year, has crossed the At lantic five times, and lived during the reigns of four British sovereigns- George the Third, George the Fourth, William the Fourth and Victoria Her mind often reverts to the good old times in 'Merrie England while at the same time she is thoroughly Ameri- canized, and proud of her adopted country. Her conversation is redolent with "reminiscences of the early days of Arkansas, and her strong but charming personality impresses all who come to know her. Her old time pupils are scattered throughout our state and there are many good friends and true to greet her wherever she goes.
