The bill for the relief of the Fourth
Arkansas infantry passed both branches
Of congress and was signed by Presi-
dent Mckinley. There is said to be
about 100 members now living of this
regiment, many of them old and de-
crepit, and in need of the small sum due
from the national government to sus-
tain them during the few remaing years
they have to live. This regiment was
recruited under order of Gen. Steele
by Col. Elisha Baxter, and went into
active service and took part in several
battles in this state. In June, 1864,
about seven months after being organ
lied, the regiment was disbanded with
out having been actually mustered into
the service of the United States. On
account of the fact that they were
never mustered into the army, the
names of the members of the regiment
did not appear on the army rolls, and
they received no pay for their services.
The bill authorizes that they be paid
for the length of time they served in
the Fourth Arkansas, and pensioned If

The next big attraction at Little Rock
is the spring meeting of the Arkansas
Jockey Club, which begins on March
Soth and continues until April 9Th. The
races this spring will be the best ever
held at Little Rock, and equal to any
to be seen anywhere in this country
Over 400 of the finest race horses in
training will be at the track TO partici-
pate in the races, and the sport will be
superb. The program shows that there
will be five good races every day of the
meeting. There are three big stake
races on the program in which the best
horses will come together. Chief among
these classic events is the Arkansas
derby, which will be run on the open
ing day of the meeting. The derby is
always an interesting event, and at
tracts thousands of visitors from all
over the state. This year the derby
will attract unusual attention on ac-
count of the number of high class
horses entered, and derby day at Little
Rock this spring will surpass any of its
predecessors. All railroads will make
special reduced rates for the races, and
Little Rock is preparing to entertain in
splendid style the large crowds who
will visit the Capital City during the
meeting of the jockey club.
