ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
Negro Glrl Became fingered at Her Mother and Tried to Destroy
 Herself.

Julia Johnson, a negro girl about 20 years old, tried to commit suicide Monday night. She is the daughter of Hattie Brady. Julia became an gered at the treatment her mother gave her, as her whims were not humored. She tock poison Monday night with suicidal intent. She was discovered before the effects of the poison became fatal and was restor- ed by the physicians aid.
 She is still quite sick. No doubt in future she will follow without a murmur the precepts of her moth CTS wisdom, as she did not find the expected comfort in being martyr to a parents stern rule; nor did she find committing suicide 'what it's cracked up to be. ,

APPOINTMENT OF HAyIs
It Was Promised Col. Cooper Last
 Week by President Mckinley.

Hon. Henry M. Cooper, chairman of the Republican State central com mittee, said this morning, says the Arkansas Democfat, in response to a question whether or not he expected the appointment of Ferd Hayis as postmaster at Pine Bluff;
 "No l saw President Mckinley last Friday, and he assured me the appointment of Hayis would be made at once, as there was no neees- sity of further delay. also saw Senator Jas. K. Jones, and he as sured me there would b no objec- tion to the confirmation on account of his color, and further that he had been given to understan by friends in Pine Bluff that there would be no objection on account of his standing in the community and business quail ifcations. The confirmation will be made promptly.
 "The State committee did not act upon this appointment in the spring when other prominent offices were decided upon, but preferred to wait until they could more thoroughly investigate the matter. When the committee met in October they found that Mr. Hayis was en- dorsed by Rey. J. M. Lucey, sena. tor W. P Grace, and many promi- nent Democrats, and very large petition signed by business men, ir- respective of politics. Had we not received this endorsement he would not have received the recommenda- tion Of the Republican central com mittee."
