3 months and Is days.
She had been an invalid for the past
two years. About year ago her mother
took her to Boulder in the hopes that
change to lower altitude would prove
beneficial, but it was of no avail. Find
no relief she was brought to her home in
this city where she has been gradually
sinking until death relieved her of her
sullerings.
kitty as she was more lovingly
known, is the third daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Francis b. Mcleod, being born in
this city. She was of a most lovable
disposition and endeared herself to the
large circle of friends and acquaintances
over whom gloom was cast by the an
nouncement of her death She was very
bright, and upon her graduation from
the Central City High School in 1885, al
though the youngest Of the class she had
the highest percentage ever received by
graduate.
The funeral occurred yesterday from
the family residence on Second High
street, Rev. Alexander Mackay, pastor of
the Presby bytcrian church, officiating. The
funeral was largely attended, and the
large number of wreaths, bouquets and
pillows of flowers, tokens of love from
friends and former schoolmates, covered
the casket to overfiowing.

of the colonies and minor officers are
boys between IL and 16. 1t should be
borne in mind, however, that young
people mature much more rapidly in
that tropical climate than they do in
this country. There, IS is regarded as
an age of discretion and responsib bility
and not a few marry even younger. Sc

sible in the latitude of Manila. and a

Present Land Law mad equate.

In an extract from his forthcoming biennial report, State Land Commis- siopioner Colquitt calls attention to the inadequacy of the present law to prevent the cutting of timber from state lands, and recommends that the law creating the office of timber in spector be so amended as to allow the inspector to appoint a competent and reliable man as special deputy, the state paying him a reasonable salary for his services, who shall devote his whole time to looking after the lands of the state. As provided for at pres ent, it is claimed that the remunera- tion is not sufficient to induce good men to accept the duties of inspector in the various counties, hence it IS difi- cult to secure convictionss.

Annual Report of supt. Eise1e shows . Large Increase of Visitors at Hot
 Springs Over Previous Years.-The Monitor Arkansas is Nearly Completed.
Reunion of Confederate Veterans.

The ninth annual reunion of Con- Rock on the 9th and 10th inst These reunions are source of great pleas ure to the old veterans, whose numbers are growing less with each feeting m oment. The business trans acted is of interest to not only the vet erans who were unable to be in attend ance, but also to the public generally. The monument committee reported that the City Park in Little Rock had been selected as the place for the mon- ument to be erected in honor of their dead comrades. The question of pen sion for depennent veterans was dis cussed at length. Col. Newman, of Pine Bluff, stated that when her sons went to battle in 1s61-65 they did so to defend the grand state of Arkansas, and that it was fair to tax the people for their benefit in their old age, nor did the people object to such tax. The following resolutions were then introduced and unanimously adopted:
 Resolved, that the legislature of 1901 be requested to appropriate an amount equal to one mill for pensions for ex- Confederate soldiers.
 Resolved, second, that circular let ter embodying the above request be prepared by the adjutant general of the division, and sent to each mem Der of the said legislature
 Resolved, third, that the command ing general appoint committee of five men whose duty it shall be to look after legislation on the subject and to urge the proper legislative com mittee to report in favor of the appro- priatioE desired.
 resolution was also adopted re- questing the next general assembly to appropriate SIC, ,000 to be added to the fund already in hand for the erection of monument at Little Rock.
