 Early this morning when the porter entered the office to sweep ont he found one of the panes of glass in the front door broken out Books and papers were scattered over the floor in great ! confusion. Mr. WcstbroaG was tele- phoned for at once and he came down to investigate the matter.
 The burglars, in their attempt to get into the safe broke the combination, and badly dented and defaced the safe

LUCK OF THE HAYWOODS

 AROUND JENNINGS.
Alba Reywood, WeiI.knoWn to Pine Blueiians. cne of the Lucky
 Brothers.

The following from the Daily States of New Orleans will be read with in terest dy the patrons of the Morrill, Institute course. The Alha Haywood Concert company is one Of th2 most popular Iyccum attractions which ever appeared in this eltf, and Heywood is the hest mimic and most versatile soliloquists ever seen here. He was always greeted with the largest house of the season.
 Pine Bluff people are well ac- qnainted with the immense Haywood oil holdings in Texas. but it is not generally known that Alba Haywood is one Of the principal owners. The Daily States says:
 Dewey Haywood. one of the lucky Haywood brothers who managed to get closest to the Beaumont oil bon anza. came into the city this morning via Chicago from the northern woods of Minnesota, where he has been spend ing two months on an outing and va cation.
 The Heywoods must have been born under all tho lucky stars that shine in the Armament. for it now turns out that they own no less than $500 acres of land where they have their Jen- nines well. This, if conservately valncd at S500@per acre would net at sale 9' oo0 000 cash Their fifteen acres of land on Spindleton. however, with thefr elshere thero. have already been valueA at S15oo.o GOO, that price havnc heen offered by Chicago syn dicate. hnt refused
