THEY CONVENE.
Members of Travellers Protective
 Association Meet Here.

The niath annual conclave of the Arkansas Division of the Travellers Protective Association convened at tue K. of P hall in this city this afternoon about 2 o'clock. Owing to the recent troubles existing over the enactment of the trust law, hundreds of travelling salesmen have been called in and naturally the att tendance has been greatly eurtailed on that account. At the conVening of the order this afternoon there were very few visitors present. The division is the guest of Post c, while in our city.
 The most important business of the session will be the election of officers for the ensuing year. How ever other matters of vital in terest will come up for consideration Dr. R. 0. Thompson, the president, and Secretary Will H. Bass are presid- ing.
 The session will continue all dar. ing this afternoon. Tonight the session will close with reception and grand ball at the Bluff City Club hall on West Second avenue. This affair will be largely attended by local society and We predict most enloyable occasion.
 Those in attendance are Messrs. T. ". Baird, D. A. McCay, Sam c. seull, Will H. Bass, Miles Scull, Aaron Frank, Fred Schrader and J. I. Smith, all of Little Rock. A large number of Pine BIufaans, who are members of the order, are also in attendance.

Not a Serious Mishap.

Washington, April 14--The War Department officials take philoso- phical view of the the reported cap ture by the insurgents, in the vicinity of zamboango, of the arms ana ammunition on the Spanish gum boats which were to become the property of the United States. They say that Gen. Otis has withheld pay ment for any Of these boats until they were deliveaed to him at Manila.
 Itis regretted that the insurgents should possess the guns, but it is sad they will not be able to secure and keep on hand supply of ammu- hilton for them.
 The United States forces have so far had no trouble with insurgents on the island of Mindanao, and in view of the suspicious circumstances attending the capture of these gdrs it IS apprehended that some per- sons. possibly Spanish sympathizers with Aguinaldo, have caused the guns to be sent to him.

Bad Faith ot spaaiards.

Manila, April 14 4-Francis Reyes, the man who recently purchased the Spanish gurboats at zamboang4, Island of Mindanao, has received advices to the effect that the fleet sailed for Manila aad returned a few days later with vessels stripped of their guns and ammunition. The purchasers agents and native crews for. the vessels on board the Ameri. can steamer Butuan were conveyed to zamboango by the United States cruiser Boston and were instructed to await the arrival there of the United States gunooatPetrel,
 Instead Of so doing after the Boston sailed from zamboanga, the Spaniards transferred the gunboats to the agents of Senor Reyes and the fleet left zamboanga unescorted They soon returned ana reported having been borded by rebels. who removed the gunboats armament. If the instructions of the American naval commander had been obeyed their capture would have been inn possible.
 Zamboanga is fortified and still garrisoned by Spaniards, and the affair is regarded as suspicious.

ing been brought up to do so, and she
knew no other way.
II wonder what's the matter with
Harvey tonight" she thought, as she
prepared for bed, having sent the
sleepy maid away. "He was joking
of course, about me staying at home
but I don't see what put the idea into
his head"
Sleep, however, soon brought for
getfulness, and Thursday saw her pre-
partitions completed and herself aboard
the train.
"You will write every day." she said
with wifely anxiety, "and you will run
down Saturday nights
NO." he answered gravely, Il won't
run down Saturday nights this summer

eyes, I know I always have, but I
can't this summer. Goodbye; the train
is moving" and with a hasty kiss he
was off.
Mrs. Hunt leaned back on her seat
"Well, I declare! / wonder why he
didn't say until the last minute that he
wasn't coming down! l don't believe
I would have gone. But then | cannot
stay in town in the hot weather. What

ally think we were retrenChing. shall
write Harvey tomorrow and tell him
what | think Of such proceedings
She wrote, but it made no difference.
Newport was very gay that summer,
the season having begun early. Mr..
Hunt wrote twice week, cheerful, low
ing letters if brief ones. Mrs. Hunt
had her share of seaside enjoyments
and Blanche, who was travelling in Ell
rope with her aunt, wrote weekly, Mrs
Hunt forwarding the letters to the
girls father.
But there came a day when the mail
failed to bring Mr.. Hunts semi-week-
ly letter. It was the first week in July,
and the weather had been fercely hot
for a week. Even Newport suffered
from the scorching heat. What must
it be in town? Mrs. Hunt thought
Fourth of July the papers reported

Mrs. Hunt telegraphed her husband,-

She addressed the message to the

Mrs. Hunt sent another telegram tc
the house, thinking she might possibly
find him there, although the servant;
were away. The third message was re
ported, "Undelivered, no one at resi-
dence."

His Summer Home.

band good night.
1t was the last society event OF the
season, and had been great success.
A week later positively everybody, "
as a lady said that evening, would be
out of town.
Harvey Hunt, wealthy lawyer OF
forty-fve, with a handsome wife and
daughter, should have been happy as
the world goes; but he looked far from
happy when his wife entered.
90 Harvey she cried, you ought
to have been there! 1t was quite the
event of the season; and the Delauneys
always give fine affairs. I'm sorry
Blanche missed it, but | dare say she
enjoyed herself somewhere else quite
as we'll"
Mr.. Hunt said nothing and she
asked,- Whats the matter, dear?
Aren't you feeling well?"
"Oh, yes" he answered, rousing him
self, Il think so. When are you going
to Newport"
81 want to go Thursday, if I can get
ready. Why?"
Nothing; only with a grim laugh,
Il was thinking what a cheerful place
the house will be for three months,
with you at Newport and Blanche in
Europe.''
They had been married twenty
years, and Mrs. Hunt had spent every
summer but one away from home.
That was the first time Mr.. Hunt had
even intimated that he objected to
staying alone.
Harvey" she asked in alarm,
shave you any business troubles?'
He laughed outright this time.
"No Harriet, I've no business troub-
les. I just wished you would stay at
home this summer, that is all"
Harvey Hunt, stay in the hot city
when everyone | know is away? Peo-
pie would think was crazy!"
*'Yes, I suppose SO. 1t would seem
the height of insanity for woman to
prefer her husbands society to that of
a crowd of fashionable fools at a sea-
side resort"
''As to my friends being fools, I
don't think you are very compliment
tary, and if you want my society why
don't you get with me?''
''Harriet, you know that such a
course is impossible. That Ellsworth
case comes up in July, and it will take
six weeks hard work to prepare for it;
| simply cannot leave home"
''But Harvey, I can't endure the
heat"
'''No, I suppose not. I can, though,
and shall have it to stand. But good
night; you won't get your beauty
sleep if you don't go to bed" And he
looked admiringly at the handsome
woman who bore his name and spent
his money as she swept out of the
room after kissing him softly.
Now don't imagine that Mrs. Hunt
did not love her husband better than
anything in the world, and don't fancy
that she was the most selfish woman of
her kind. Nothing of the sort. She
came of fashionable, wealthy family,
who never staid at home in the sum-
mer, family whose men delved DAYS
