 The belief that the Arkansas river will not rise above 9 3 feet at Little Cock, says this mornings Gazette, induces the assurances heretofore given out that no serious results may be feared by the planters be- tween this point and Pine Buff.

Unless all signs and calculations fail, that wi l be the extent Of the present rise. Notwithstanding this some of the planters below have taken preeau- tions and are ready to resist any possible encroachments.
 A fall of 1,5 foot was reported from Fort Smith yesterday morning ard there was a slight fall at Darda- oelie. The river is uucomlortably high, it is true, but there is every reason to expect that it will come to q stand today, then gradually re- cade

tionary stock among the green hills of
Vermont, having been born at Burling-
ton Nov. Is, 1913. Like most Of our

forts to obtain means therefor. Mr..

admitted to the bar Of Wisconsin, and
later for three years practiced his pro-
