THEY MADE THE WRONG RUN
Confusion Of Alarms Make Unneces-
sary Work for the Fire
Department.

While the fire department was making
record-breaking run to a supposed
fire near the corner of Idaho and Broad
way streets late yesterday afternoon,
Chief Sanger of that department was
deliberately setting fire to a house on
Porphyry near Wyoming streets. The
house that the chief had fired happened
to be the old detention hospital, how
ever, and he was acting under instruc-
tons of the city council. The alarm
calling the department out was sent in
from box "a, located at the corner of
Idaho and Broadway, but the line failed
to work perfectly, and an alarm regis
tered at the fire station as coming from
box 49, This alarm, together with one
from boxes 81 and, II. were all turned in
by those who supposed the detention
hospital had caught fire accidentally.
The fire department had been Informed
of Chief Sanger's intention to destroy
ty fire the old hospital, and was pre-
pared to pass all alarms coming from
that neighborhood. The call from box
43, being some distance away from the
fire chiefs field of action, made the boys
take the run they endeavored to avoid.

SMITH MARRIED.
AND YET HE THINKS HE IS A
SINGLE MAN.
IT IS A SAD PREDICAMENT
In Which Harry Smith, Actor, Finds
Himself-Obtained Decree Of Divorce
and His Attorney Failed to Have
the Judgment Entered-Trouble
for the Attorney.

Another of those divorce cases in which
the party that obtained decree of legal
separation has been film fiammed by rea-
SON Of the failure of his attorney to have
the judgment entered after being paid
the money for it. has just fioated to the
surface in the district court. and there
is trouble brewing for the attorney g
a result.
The title Of the cause is Harry Smith
VS.. Ella X. Smith. The proofs were
heard in Judge Clancy's court on April
% of this year. and Smith was granted a
decree. but it has never been entered
on the judgment docket because the fee
Of $3.50 has not been paid by the at
torney.
Smith is a theatrical man by profess
sion, his stage name being Harry Sed-
ley. While in Butte he was member
of company playing at Sutton's Fam
lily theater, but is now with the Clara
Hammer company at New Westminster,
British Columbia.
To-day the clerk of the district court
received a letter from Smith in which
Smith said he has just been informed
by mail that his decree of divorce had
not been entered on the judgment role
because of the absence of the necessary
$3.50 fee. In the epistle he also said:
] MY lawyer gave me two copies of the
decree and I paid him his fee and. sup
posed he had attended to the matter
The clerk has answered the letter, in
forming Mr.. Smith that he is still a
married man and will remain such un-
til the $3.50 is paid for entering the judg-
ment.

HOW DAVID HENNEssY DIED
His Candle Went Out and He Stumbled
into Parrot Air Shaft-Com-
pany BlameAess.

The coroner's inquest held yesterday
to examine into the death Of David Hens
messy exonerated the Parrot Mining
company from blame. Hennessy was
employed as a miner at the Parrot mine.
and while at work on the foot level
missed his footing in some way and fell
into an air shaft. The evidence at the
inquest showed that the shaft was prop
erly guarded, and although it is hard to
understand how the miner could fall,
with the railing in place, the solution
of the accident given by the jury at the
inquest seems to be the only reasonable,
one.
The supposition is that Hennessy,
while passing the air shaft, extinguished
his candle light in some manner, and in
cropping his way back stumbled and
fell under the railing and into the shaft.

Dunn's Review of Crop Conditions.

The R. G. Dun Commercial Agency
has issued the following review of
the condition Of the cotton crop in
this state:
The cotton crop Of Arkansas as a
whole is not promising well. In the
western counties inclusive of upper
Arkansas valley, cotton and corn are
both suffering from lack of rain.
This condition applies particularly
to the counties of Faulkner, Conway,
Perry, Pope, Yell and Johnson. How
ever, there are spots which have had
rain and are doing well, but these
are only the few exceptions to the
prevailing condition as stated.
AS general thing the corn is suf-
fering more than the cotton and the
uplands more than the river lands.
In Pope county corn is whiting and
cotton is making slow growth. This
condition, though perhaps in a less
degree, exists in other counties named
The cotton crop never recovered
fully from the dry weather which pre-
vailed at planting time and during
the dry weeks that followed. And
while the stand is generally spoken of
as good, careful inquiry develops the
fact that the stand is not quite all
that would be desired
In southwestern Arkansas crops
are reported more favorable. This
applies also to south central Arkan-
sas, where the stand of cotton is re-
ported good and the growth healthy.
In some quarters there is serious
complaint for want of labor and some
fields are plainly in the grass.
The trade prospects are good. Mer.
chants are hopeful of average crops
and good general conditions this fall,
and are preparing to buy heavily.
The lumber and coal interests are
all in fine condition and increased
capital has gone into both.
While the trade at the present
reasonably slow, merchants feel on.
couraged over the general situation
of the Little Rock district, whose pros
pect for the coming season they con.
