A Strange Story.

A strange story of life under an as
sumed name and estrangement from
wealthy relatives, for 40 years, comes
from Clarendon, where a prominent
citizen known as John Smith died re-
Gently. His real name was Alvin
kimball and he claimed to be a
brother of Orrin A. Kimball, the mil
lionaire piano manufacturer of Mas
sachusetts. In the early COS young
himball got on a spree with other
young men in Boston and through
remorse enlisted in the federal army.
Shortly after enlisting he deserted
and went to Philadelphia, where he
re-entered the army as a substitute
and received $1,000 in gold. He again
deserted and again went in as a sub
stitute, this time receiving $1,000 in
gold. Finally he cast his lot with the
Confederates, and went through the
war with the remarkable record of
having fought on both sides and de,
serted three times. He was highly
esteemed by his neighbors, and to
the orphan and friendless man his
purse was always open. At the time
of his death he was caring for tw.
homeless little ones.

Chicago, Aug. 23.-Unless the plans
of the leaders miscarry, every union
man connected with the building
Trades council will be called out on

Owing to increased activity in the
building trades within the last few
days, union men have been put 20
work, in some places with the consent
Of the business agents, and it is the
purpose of the unions to stop the
work wherever the bosses believed
they had won victory, and show

SENATOR COCKRELL ROBBED.

Sedalia Mo-, Aug 23.--Among the
eXcursionists coming in with the JEFF
ferson club, of st, Louis, Tuesday,
were lot of thieves, and robbcries
aggregating several hundred dollars

tanning about $3.50 The senator felt

lnrly, but he did not miss his wallet

GEN. CHAFFEE IN CONTROL.
The American Commander Prncti-
cally Supercedcs Minister Conger.

New York. Aug. ga special to
the World from Washington says.
The war department has sent Gen.
Chaffee a cablegram of four words,
which practically takes things out of
Minister Conger's hands, and puts
Gen. Chaffee in the position of the
utmost responsibility. The message
said
Report operations, situation, re-
quirements,"
There is no intention of depreciat-
ing Minister Conger; the government
has the liveliest sense of gratitude for
him; but it is not deemed expedient
to act on his dispatches, because, af-
ter his terrible experiences he is
naturally embttered, and uncon-
scicusly biased, and because he needs
and cserves rest.
1t is proposed to have Mr.. Conger
come home at the first opportunity,
and enjoy long period of rest and
regeneration.

George Hudgins and Ike Chandler
met tragic death in well at Hot
Springs. The men were digging the
well, and had gone down about 25
feet. Hudgins was at the bottom and
Chandler was using the windlass to
raise the dirt. Suddenly Chandler
heard cry for help and he immed-
lately descended to rescue Hudgins,
who was dying from suffocation
When Chandler reached the bottom
he, too, was overcome by suffocation
and called to those at the windlass to
pull him up. He was hauled near the
top in dazed condition and fell
back, breaking his neck. The dead
bodies of both men were then drawn
from the well with hooks.

MADDOX SEMINARY.
Citizens of Arkansas should Feel Proud OF
Such an Institution of Learning.

Citizens of Arkansas should Feel Proud Of
Such an Institution Of Learning.
The new addition to Maddox Semi
nary is going up rapidly. Many other
important improvements are baing
made during vacation and by the ,pen-
ing of next session, September 18th,
Maddox Seminary will have the best
school plant in the southwest for young
ladies. The citizens Of Little Rock and
the state Of Arkansas should feel proud
OF. such an institution OF learning.
Many who have been sending their
daughters out of the state in search Of
better equipped schools are turning
their attention now toward Maddox
Seminary. This is just as it should be.
All are agreed that Little Rock, our
City of Roses, can have just as good
school as any other capital city and
that we should patronze our own in
situations. President Maddox is an ex-
perienced and successful school man
and commands the respect and conf
dence Of all who know him.
He is emnently qualified for his
responsible position as shown by the
success he has made in Little Rock un.
der the most trying circumstances. He
is not only an educator Of high order
but man Of extraordinary business
ability, who guards with care and good
judment the business interests of the
institution. We need more college
presidents of this kind in our country.
During the two years past he re.
modelled and thoroughly Overhauled
the buildings and is now erecting a
large addition, putting in a new heat
ing plant, water works on every floor,
electric lights and all modern improve.
ments. This will give boarding ca.
pacity for 200 and every room will be
newly furnished.
There will be large increase in the
patronage this fall and President Mad
dox is pushing his propositions with
the hope Of accommodating all who
may come, The school is being con.
Quoted upon high plane and deserves
a liberal patronage. Let the people
