Fletcher Quits,

Col. John G. Fletcher, of Little
Rock, has withdrawn from the
race for governor of Arkansas,
and publishes the following card
to the democratic voters:
From the returns received from
the six counties which have al
ready held primaries, it appears
that the>platform under which |
announced myself as a candidate
for governor, and which was for
the material development and
advancement of the state, does
not meet with the approval Of the
people Swho have already ex-
pressed their choice; therefore,
deem it inexpedient to continue
in the race any further. Thank
ing my friends for their support,
and those who have pledged their
to me, I now respectfully
withdraw my name as a candi-
date.

Judge Jordan G. Winfrey Of
the city court Of Evansville, Ind,
recently fined a party one thous-
and dollars and sent him TO Jail
for six months for assaulting an
opposing witness, which was
eminently right and proper. In
justification Of his act the judge
thus expressed himself: 81 be-
lievo in unfolding the law and
protecting the weak against the
skilled in crime, and when q man
is called upon to testify in court
to throw the strong arm of law
around him, He who would in
fliot bodily punishment on q
witness, who, under oath, Is
bound to tell the truth, is guilty
of a serious Grim, and should be
punished accordingly"

Died Praying.

We have just learned of a
touching incident in connection
with the death Of Rev. G.. w.
Reeves, which occurred at his
home in Mineral Springs last
Thursday, after short illness of
pneumonia.
Before becoming i'll Mr.. Reeves
had prepared a sermon to be de-
livered to his congregation at
Mineral Springs on March 18th.
He was taken i'll on Saturday,
March 10th, and was unable to
fill his appointment,
On last Thursday when Mr..
Reeves became aware that he
was dying, he announced that he
would deliver the sermon to those
present. He did so, AMI at the
conclusion Of the sermon the
consecrated man said, "Let US
pray" These present knelt, and
with bowed heads listened while
the man Of God lifted his voice
in supplication. But the prayer
was not finished; with the name
Of the Saviour upon his lips, the
faithful servant was called by his
Master to receive the reward
promised those who are faithful
to the end.-Nashville, (Ark.)

Gracefully Retires.

Gov. Dan W. Jones publishes
the following card, Withdrawing
from the race for United States
Senator.
It has been apparent to me,
since the result of the primaries
held on the 10th inst. became
known, that l am not the choice
of the people for this place, and |
have made no effort since that
time to prosecute my candidacy.
| am unwilling to tax my friends
with solicitude for me any longer,
and | therefore withdraw from
the contest. l am truly grateful
to those who have favored my
aspirations and | have no ILL
feeling for those who have OPP
posed me. | do not know that |
shall ever again aspire to public
office, but | shall always feel a
deep interest in the welfare Of my
state and the success of Demo-
cratic principles,
During the time of my service
as governor of Arkansas have
witnessed a wonderful growth in
the development Of the states re-
sources. | trust that nothing
shall occur to retard this.
Whether there shall or not de-
ponds upon the people Of the
state. | feel authorized to ad-
monish them that their future
progress and prosperity depend
largely upon the kind of men
they shall choose to administer
their state government. AS wa
ter cannot rise above its source,
so a government cannot rise
above the intelligence and virtue
of those who administer it's af-
fairs. Demagogues and dis
reputable men may deceive the
majority of the nec,Ne for awhile,
but they cannot induce the ex-
penditure of capital in the state
or advance the states materia,
interests. They can do more
harm in one term of office thar
wise men can undo in decade.
AS a citizen Of the state, borr
close to its borders, reared in i
from my very early infancy, with
no wish to leave it, and with al
that have, either in possession
or expectancy, subject to its SOW
ereignty, | am as much inter
ested in this matter as anyone
else can be, and l earnestly pray
that in it our people will act with
careful circumspection and wis.
dom, and not be led into an error
from which grievous consequen
ces will surely follow. am well
content to fill a private station
and share the common lot Of the
private citizen. | have already
been honored beyond my deserts
ask for nothing more along the
line Of civic promotion. ] only
ask for what will benefit my state
and all its people as well as me-
an honest government, admins
tered by honest, honorable and
capable men, and not by those
whose chief qualification is the
capacity to villify other and much
better men.
With every wish for the pros
perity of my state and the happi-
ness and welfare Of her people, |
am, respectfully,

Rotten Fish as Food.

One of the national delicacies OF

caught the previous summer, and eaten
in an advanced stage of decomposi-
ton. Its odor alone Is beyond words
its taste the writer fortunately does
not know. 1t is difficult to stay long
in the room with it, and yet it is pre-.
ferred to fresh meat or fish, both OF
which are cheap and easily obtaina.

General Cox QuelIed a Mu,,ny.

General Cox was a good discipline
rian, but he never clustered and was
never severe. On one occasion several
officers called at his headquarters and
stated to him that they would not
promise to march their men up the mar
row river valley. He sent them to their
quarters and said nothing of their i'm
pertinence until after the war.
While in camp at GaUley bridge his
Quartermaster general shot a private
n the Second Kentucky. The men of
the regiment escaped the control of the
officers and made rush to kill the
quartermaster, who had been taken to
CoX's headquarters. Cox saw the men
coming. but instead of ordering the
guards to fire on them he ran toward
them alone, bareheaded and unarmed
lie reached gap in stone wall ahead
Of the 500 or 600 furious armed men
and stopped them. He explained that
they might kill him, but they could not
pass.
said, "Your general, unarmed, as you
see, orders you to remember that you
are soldiers and obey" Much to the
surprise of the score of anxious officers
watching the parley, the men returned
to their camp. Cox sent for company
from another regiment, which guarded
the prisoner to the lower camp. No
charge Of mutiny ever appeared against
that regiment, which afterward, under
Nelson and Palmer, made a splendid
reputation for drill, discipline and hard
fighting. Inter Ocean.

Curious Mexican Laws

They have some very curious crimi-
nal laws in Mexico. For instance. it is
twice as much of an offense to mutt
late the face of woman as that of a
man. The law seems to be based on
the idea that woman's best posses
sion is her beauty and that to mar 1t
does her great injury.
There is another curious law. If a
person should be wounded in an en-
counter, the punishment to the offend
er is fixed by the number of days his
victim has to stay in the hospital or
under doctors care. line is fixed
at 40 days in the way of general divi-
sion. If the injured man occupies more
than 40 days in his recovery. the pen.
atty doubles up.

A Kings Fear of woman,s Beauty


Charles XII Of Sweden feared only
one power in the world, the power Of
beauty; only handsome woman could

him to flight. He said: $50 many he

life to be free from such weakness;
history must not find such a stain upon
it."
He was told one day that a young
girl had come to sue for justice on be-
half of a blind octogenarian father
maltreated by soldiers. The first in
clination of the king, strict discipline
rian, was to rush straight to the plain
tiff, to hear the details of the misde-
meanor for himself, but suddenly stop

Would Not Leave 1t to Go For Money
That Belonged to Him.
'T won't go outl I won't leave hers

Such was the amazing declaration OF
q pauper attendant In an east end Lon
don workhouse on being told by an
agent that he was entitled to some
money. And the mantle son of q
post captain in the navy-meant all
that he said. Not an inch would he
bulge, nor would he sign. any paper
and 1t was only by taking commits
sioner down to him that the fund
could be recovered.
Whether because 1t was only a com
paratively small sum or whether be
cause he was worker, the guardians
made no claim on 1t. Accordingly, al
his request, 1t was split, and two ac
counts were opened on his behalf ir
the Postofflce Savings bank. But, fol
all that, he continued to remain in the
workhouse.
Meanwhile he was very anxious that
his wife should not know he was alive
in fact, he denied that he was mar.
ried. His life partner, however, called
at the agents Office to inquire about
the case, though she begged that her
husband might not be told of hel
whereabouts. She was in g. fairly
good position, earning as she did a liv,
ing by keeping ladies' school, and
once or twice her reprobate husband
had turned up in an intoxicated condi
ton and raised a commotion that had
scandallzed her pupils. The i'll sorted
pair were, therefore, not brought into
communication.
Never would the pauper legatee leave

his death. whereupon, having left nc

A Pathetic Incident of the Pawn
shops In the METROPOLIS.


Sneaking into small shop In an OBJ
scure and poverty ridden locality, the
man who went broke" at the races
was realizing on a superfiuous article
of jewelry. A woman so poor and
pinched in feature. so marked with
care and desperation that 1t made him
feel sick to look at her. was holding
something under her shawl and wait

Wait on her. She seems to be in a
hurry" he said to the man behind the
counter. and at the word of permission
a carpenters plane was produced from
the shelter of the shawl
How much do you want" queried
the unmoved pawnbroker monotonous-
ly.
Fifty cents" replied the woman,
with gulping in her throat and an
eager look in her eyes. She clutched
tie money tightly and ran into another
creature, poor as herself, but bearing
her troubles in duller fashion. She
had a baby's cloak. never costly and
much worn. on which she wanted to
borrow money. the same sum as the
other woman had asked for.
The man who had been offering a
diamond felt uncomfortable. There,
give me $50. The stones worth four
times as much" And, Selling the mon
ey, he hurried after the woman who
had just left the shop. He was not
given to acts of charity, and he felt
awkward. the more so as the woman
shrank from him as he accosted her.
