 Charles H. Thrall of Rockville Is thought to be prisoner in Havana. Two men by the name of Thrall and James were arrested there as newspaper cor respondents. They have since been charged with being spies and are in crlti- cal positions.
 Sheriff Dickinson and Officer Lynch yesterday afternoon arrested William Fay, who escaped from Holland county jail last fall. Fay was convicted of drunk ness in Stafford and sent to Holland jail for sixty days. After serving thirty days he made his escape, having been allowed the freedom of the jail yard. He will be tried here this morning on charge which has been hanging over him for some time.
 Mlnna Hassler, alias Minna Symonds, charged with blgamy, was arraigned be- fore Judge Bill in the city police court yesterday. Attorney Fisk has been re- tained by her late husband, George Sy- monds, and upon his advice the woman pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to six months in jail. Judge Bill in giving his verdict, said there were extenuating cir cumstances connected with the case and the sentence would be made light on that account. The fourth husband, Robert HassIer of Holyoke, wac in the court room, but was not needed as a witness. He claims that his wife was married in Germany to two men from whom 1t Is supposed she obtained divorces. She had children by one of the husbands who are living with their father in Germany. One of her husbands in this country lives in Ellington, one in Holyoke and one in Hartford. She has not secured divorce from any of these. Hassler claimed that she married him in 1894. She was married to Symonds at Holland last November and has lived with him since that time. She came to the town last year, Symonds be. came acquainted with her and married her as she claimed that she had no lawful husband. Symonds T. between 45 and 50 and this Is his first experience in matri. monial affairs. .-HGrttord CoerGnt.

The attention of the reader is

The attention of the reader is
directed to the formal announce
ment of Hon. ]. NJ. Carter, who
offers as a candidate for congress
from this, the Third Congressional
district. Mr.. Carter is a member
of the law firm OF Kirby 4 Carter
at Texarkana and is a gentleman
widely known for his legal attain
ments. 1t is conceded by all that
Mr. Carter would make an able re-
preventative. This is by reason of
his eminent ability to fill the posi-
ton. Perhaps no attorney in this
district stands higher in his pro-
fession-his success has been the
result of his own individual but
treless efforts. And this eminently
qualities him for the heavy work
that would naturally fall upon bis
shoulders as a representative in
congress. Mr.. Carter has ever
been an active democrat and has
rendered valuable service to the
cause of that party. The Banner
predicts for him d strong follow
ing Magnolia Banner.

Secretary OF State A. c. Hull and
the other members of the Arkansas
commission for the Omaha EXposi-
ton have returned from a tour Of
inspection of the grounds. They
we're received with every courtesy
by the Exposition management. A
very desirable site was selected, and
it was decided to erect a credible
State building, one which will com
pare favorably with those around
it. The site selected is about 100xl0O
feet Just in front of the main horti-
cultural building, by the side of the
Missouri building and near by Hi
nois and Nebraska, one of the
choicest bits of ground uuoccupied
when the commission arrived, and
one of the most advantageous sites
of the entire Exposition. The plans
for raising the funds have not vet
been matured. Fort Smith has al
ready pledged to donate the lumber,
and from other sections of the state
come promises of liberal contribu-
tiOns.

Firearms Are Not TOYS.

Two more deaths have lately re.
suited from "didn't know 1t was
loaded" accidents--a mother killing
her babe and a boy almost having
his head blown off. Revolvers and
guns are dangerous under all cir.
cumstances. Firearms are not toys.
1t is also unsafe to trifle with what
are termed minor ailments. lnsig-
ni6cant though they seem at first,
they are likely, if precautions
against their further development
are neglected, or they are unwisely
treated, to develop into maladies of
dangerous and complex magnitude,
The best way is to arrest their prog
ress at the start with HOstetters
Stomach Bitters, which checks con-
stipation, liver complaint and rheu-
matism, malaria, kidney trouble and
nervousness. A decline in health is
something we cannot afford to dis
regard Nature always exacts a
severe penalty for continuous heed
lessness of her warnings. Independ
emily of its sterling efficacy as a
specific for chronic maladles, the
Bitters is a superb tonic and pro-
mOter of appetite and sleep.

AT THE KING.
sharplsy Lyeeum Company Presents
"a Celebrated Case

Ii Is certainly complimentary to
the SharpleY Lyceum Iheater COM
pany, that they played last evening
To the largest audience that has as
sembled in the King the present sea
son, which was due in part 10 the
free admission of ladies, and partic-
ularly to popular prices. They had
read favorable words of the Lyceum
and expected a good performance,
and we're by no means disappointed
The opening bill, "A Celebrated
Cast, was presented with dramatic
esprit and interest, the characters
being portrayed in an artistic and
very clever manner. The emotional
work of Miss Aida Lawrence was
smooth aud graceful, and not for a
single line did she forget herself and
rave aud rant like most stage ladies
do in trying parts. The acting Of
Mr. Sharpley, both as a soldier &C.
cused of numbering his wife, aud as
a galley slave brought to a recogni-
tion of his daughter, was superb;
and Mr.. Maddern was pleasing as an
Irish character. The vocal solos by
Paul Hudson won a hearty encore
and could not be pronounced other
than superb.
The music furnished by Prof.
Kreyer and orchestra was decidedly
the best heard this season. The de-
scriptiye piece, "a Trip to Coney
Island, won tremendous applause,
each and every part being produced
with wonderful accuracy and skill
The music alone is worth more than
the price of admission, to say moth
ing of the high grade entertain
ment given on the stage. Green

This company will be at the Chic
opera house all next week. Grand
matinees on Wednesday aud Satur-
