with the same time last week and a slight
change compared with the corresponding
time a year ago. The supply to-day was
small, and with an increased demand the
offerings changed owners promptly at an
advance of 10G15c in prices. There is
great scarcity of choice stock of all kinds,
and buyers are having TO pay what ordi-

for the less desirable grades to supply their

News comes from Russellville,
where Davis and Remmel spoke yes
terday, that the democrats were
pleased with the drubbing Davis
gave Remmel, and that the demo-
cratic majority in the county will
be revelation over former majori-
tiles. Mr.. Kennels speech is made
up principally in defending the su-
preme court, which Davis derided
during his campaign for the nomi-
nation. Remmel is trying to work
on the sympathy Of the old ex-con-
federates by telling them that the
supreme court is composed of men
who wore the gray and wore it well,
and who won laurels on the battle
field. You can't catch a single ex-
confederate democrat with that
sort Of bait, Mr.. Remmel, so you
had better get up better argu-
ment why Arkansas should be
turned over to Clayton & Co.

Will Shoot Her Daughter.

If the worst comes to the worst,
Mrs. NJ. W. Woodward of Evanston
will shoot her daughter, lone, and
herself to keep from falling into the
hands of the Boxers at Pekin.
Mrs. Woodward herself says this
in letter of June II to her hus-
band. In her lettershe wrote:
"The pistol contains five bullets,
and if we are attacked | shall fire
three IN our defense. If they fail,
the fourth will be for lone and the
fifth for myself"
In the same letter in which Mrs.
Woodward expresses her intention
to kill herself and daughter she
says:
1--WE feel confident that we will
be rescued. In fact we are assured
that everything WILDE done by our
Government and the other Chris
tian nations to relieve us immedi-
atleY.
e "Do not try to answer, as do
not know where | shall be" were

B FAME.

Hon. j. M. Carter, elector for the
third Arkansas district, will make
his initial bow today at Bloomburg,
Texas, as a campaigner for'the dem
ocratic ticket in the coming cleo
ton. Mr.. Carter is a fluent talker,
an able debater, and he carries a
pitch-fork ready for use when he
finds any one to pitch into. He is a
good democrat, Bryan and Ste
venson man from the head to the
heels and will put in his time and
best licks for the ticket in this, the
Third District, from now until the
November election. For fear that
some one may mistake the cause of
Mr.. Carter going to Texas, to make
his speech, we feel it our duty to
say that Bloomburg is near the Ar
kansas line, within four miles of the
Miller county Gibraltar-Bright
Star, and that there will be great
turning out of the democrats from
Miller to this barbecue and Mr., Car
ter will talk to them like a father.

remedy that has startled the world
by its marvellous cures. The furor

Death of the Queens Son.

Queen Victoria's son, Duke OF
SAKE -Coberg and Gotha, died in
Berlin yesterday. 1t is said his
death was caused by intemperance,
as he was a habltual drinker and
had to be put to bed almost nightly.
Some time ago, a drummer stop
ping at the Hucklns House had a
gun stolen from his samples. Mr..
Huckins paid him for lit aud asked
Marshal Casey to look out for the
gun. Today a negro man walked
into a pawn shop and sold the gun
for $2 80. The pawn broker had
been given the number previously
and he knew the gun was the one
wanted. He paid the $3.50 and
then got the Marshal and soon at
terwards the negro was arrested
and placed in jail He had not
spent the So. so, and it was recovered
also. Mayor Wiuham will hear the
case this afternoon.

apart from state dinners and official re-
ceptions. II was found that these sums
reached a total which made a very heavy
inroad into the amount set apart for the

showed that immense defaleations were

ment, the control of the same being gross

ants being supplied with food from the

eggs and wagon loads of meat were charg-

was thus shown that for ground pepper
alone, 1900 marks had been expended in
one year.

wants have to feed themselves and re-
ceive as compensation q certain sum of
money per day. Their meals are being
cooked for them by special kitchen de-

furnish each meal at certain rate.
Quite a similar arrangement has been
made as to the meals of the imperial

head for each of the meals. Thus the
