COMFORTS OF COUNTRY HOTEL.
Americas Drummer Has Unpleasant
Experience.

Experience.
A hotel in certain little country
town within the range of Americas
drummers is much frequented by
knights of the grip here, but there is
one commercial tourist who will take
along tent when next he goes there.
After supper, night or two ago, while
doing in front of the hotel, the town
hog came roofing along and oyerturn-
ed his chair, spilIing the drummer in
the gutter. At daylight next morning
a billy goat, chased by three yelping
hound dogs, sought safety in the
drummer's bedroom up stairs. All the
comforts of home are certainly not
found in that hostelry.

AND ALL RETURN HOME
Democrat Being Congratulated on Getting in Its Solar
 Plexus Blow.

There was very large crowd in the Jefferson circuit court room Wednesday evening when Judge A. B. Grace reconvened that body to again take up he case of Phillip Hepp ys. the Arkansas Democrat, a ssut-at-law for $10,o00. The court took recess early in the morning until certain files of the Democrat could be brought from Little Rock and produced in court,
 The attorneys for the plaintiff in- trodueed proof at the evening ses- sion to show that the alleged libel- ous article was published by the Democrat. They also introduced proof to show that plaintiff was one of the twelve jurors who sat in jude- ment in tbe case of Jesse Heard, who was charged with murder in the first Gegree, and returned Yer dict of not guilty. The attorneys for the plaintiff thereupon closed the case.
 The defendants then, in effect, dc murred to the evidence. erding that assuming that the proof intro duced was true, tben it was not sui fcaot to entitle the plalnt tiff to re- cover. inasmuch h as plain tiff was not designated particular y in the isem as the one against whom the alleged libelous article was intended.
 The court overruled this demurrer to the evidence and permitted the defendants to introduce proof in justification or mitigation.
 Court was then adjourned until this, Thursday, morning.
 When court was called at 3 o'clocl this Thursday morning, Judge $. R Cockrill, one of the counsel for tht defendants, made motion for per emptory instructions 10 the jury which was argued in chamb bers. l was contended by the desendan | 1 and the content ton sustained by tn, court, that the alleged libelous mat ter was net sufficiently explicit td constitute specific libel. and there fore 1t could not be held as actiona ble. The court thereupon ordered that the iiary return a verdict fo the defendant, which was dou' from the box. The plaintiff, how ever, gave notice of appeal to tn supreme court on the ruling. an' was given leave to amend the min remaining cases to be taken up a some future day. The exception 0

plaintiffs counsel to the ruling are to be heard in January. The death of Ollie Harmon, one of the plain tiff's jurors, vas suggested and ad- mitted and the case as to him aba ted.
 The Arkansas Democrat Company and the gen ntlemen who have been here this week in it's interest are being congratulated by all llupon this triumph ovei evident oppression. It is patent to all who have followed this most remarkable case that 1t is being prolonged by others than the plaintiffs only for harassment and annoyance. Of the eleven cases set for trial at this term, the plaintiffs in oniy four appeared, and evidence was adduced to show that others of those who were absent had said they did not propose to prosecute the cases at all, as they were weary ot them. The defendants felt so sure of the justice of their position that they insisted on having all the cases tried at once without further delay feeling confident that exoneration would follow in every instance. Judge Grace, however, said that he would give no further time to them at this term of court, having already devoted three days to their hearing.
 Messrs James Mitchell, George Naylor, Clio Harper, Ashley Cock Till, Judge s R Gockrill, Clark Miller, L. S. Dunaway, James A Gray, several of the Perry county jurors and their attorneys have all returned to their spectiye homes, majority of wkieh are in Little Rock

HE HAS DECLINED.
Rev. Forney Hutchinson Will Not Accept the Local Y. M. C.
 4. Secretaryship.

Rev. Forney Hutchinson, of Ark, has declined to aa- cept the secretaryship of the Pine Bluff Young Mems Christian Asso- citation, which was recently tender ed him, preferring to continue his relations with the Methodist con- ference. He will go to Hot Springs Monday for an assignment, having sufficiently recovered his health to resume pastoral work.
 The Nashville News says: 9The Y. M. C. A at Pine Bluff is the most important in the State, and the salary attached to the secreta- rvs office is very remnneratlve one, but Mr. Hutchinson feels that its IS duty to remain in the confer ence, and declined to accept the po- sition on that account. This con- secrated young minister eau be de- pended upon to do what he consid- CTS his duty, regardless of the pe- cuniary features. Such devotion upon the part of it's clergymen is what has made the Methodist church one of the leading denominations of the world
