Took Down the Yellow Flag.

Some seven or eight days ago, we
are informed by DR.. Johns, the city
physician, DR.. Miller, was either
called or went to the house of a
Mr.. Harris, living about one and
a-half miles from the street car
barn on County Avenue, to see a
young lady, the daughter of Mr..
Harris, whose face was badly
specked with what she called mos
quito bites, she having spent the
day on some creek where mosqui-
toes were more plentiful than the
fish and they made a raid on the
young lady and did bite her terri
bly,. The doctor said it was a sus-
picious case of small pox and hung
out a yellow flag. Mr.. Harris was
ordered with his household to keep
in the house until the time expired
that is given such cases. He stayed
there for six days and then sent for
the County Judge, detailing the
the facts that his daughter was NJ t
sick or did he believe the pimples on
her face indicated anything but the
poisonous bites of the mosquitoes.
Judge Hamilton after hearing Mr..
Harris lamentations sent DR.. Johns
out to see the case and report. DR..
Johns found that it was not case
of small pox according to his dag
nosis, and he told Mr., Harris to
take down the flag and 60 about
his work. DR.. Johns then invited
DR.. R. W. Read to 60 out and see
the lady, and DR.. Read coincided
with him that the case was not
small pox. When DR.. Johns came
to the city he was arrested for or
dering the flag taken down, and
his trial has been set to take place
tomorrow before Mayor Winham.
If you want to learn all the partlc'
ulars of this case, attend the trial.

Assertion of the MexIa Texas
News-Ledger, that Attorney-Gen-
eral Davis was so popular in Arkan-
sas, in the race for Governor, was
because many still thought it was
the original JEFF Davis, is not worthy
of notice. 1t is simply first class
libel upon our people. Davis has
come into notoriety by appealing to
the prejudices and passions of the
people, and when it is seen that he
is simply "hollow mockery," his
popularity will wane, like that not

DEMOCRATS WIN.

Decision by the Court of Appeals in the
kentucky Governorsl,:p NIpltlle.
FRANKFORT, KY, April 9.-The court
of appeals has handed down decision
in the governnrship case in favor of tho
democrats. Tl..dccision is by six of tho
judges, four Democrats and two Repub-
icans. One Republican, Durc!lo, dis
sented. The other two Republican
judges, Burnem and Guffey, gave sep
nrate opinion from tho Democratic
judges but which agreed with the Dem
Ocratic members in its conclusion.
Judge Hobson wrote the opinion of
the court. The concurrence of Judges
Burnam and Guffey with the four Dem
ocratic judges was surprise generally,
but to the Republicans especially, and
there is much speculation now as to
whether the talked-of appeal to the su.
preme court will be proceeded with.
The opinion holds that the action of
the legislature in. seating Governor
Beckham was final, aud that the courts
have no power to review it; that Gov
ernor Taylor exceeded his authority in
adjourning the legislature to London,
and that the journals Of the two houses
of the legislature being regular cannot
be impeached.

physicians, at $3.50 Fer month, also
make up considerable part Of the par

departments, etc.

representing a family of six I.aii'rs

ARE VERY A..
BRITISH PUBLIC IN A NEEvl.
CONDITION.

Unexpected Ra1lying of Free State Conn
mandoes Causes Worry-Little Faith in
They Have Often Proved Correct-Lord
Methuen's hold and dangerous Move.
LONDON, April 11.-But that the war
Office has issued no news from Lord
Roberts during the last three days
there would be little disposition to place
any credence in the Boer reports of an
other British disaster. The unexpected
rallying Of the FREQ State commanders,
however, leaves the public in nervous
condition, fearing everything. Dis.
patches from Pretoria as late as Mon
day did not mention any further Boer
victory. On the contrary they said all
the commanders were quiet, and, US
Lord Roberts has hitherto not failed
promptly to report any mischances as
well as successes before waiting for the
newspaper correspondents to report
them, until there is some confirmation
there is justification in regarding the
Meekertsfontein rumor as only an ex-
aggerated account of the Reddersburg
affair. At the same time Boer reports
have so often proved correct that the
greatest anxiety will be felt.
No further news has been received OF
fighting either at Wepener or i'll Natcl.
Boer reports seem to indicate that Lord
Methuen is advancing from Boshof CO.
wards Hoopstadt. 1t is a bold aud ap-
parently dangerous move, since, al
though it turns the right flank of the
Boer position at Brandfort, it puts Lord
Methuen's forces between whatever
garrison there may be at Bloemhof, in
the Transvaal, and the BIandfort force.
