The Town Light Plant.

Dr. G. D. Dickerson, a member of the town council, has furnished us with a report of the running of the light plant for the first six months under municipal owner ship, and the showing is not bad. The concern has earned SI349.45. The expense for labor, fuel, repairs, salaries etc, has been 9I.5S. This leaves a profit for the six months of S357.S7, or S59.65 per month. If the lights used on the streets by the town were paid for by the town as before at $50 per month the profit would be S657.S7.

A Serious Matter.

Gov. Jefferson Davis may have made a mistake that will lead to bloodshed ill Mississippi county. The Arkansas Democrat seems to have l correct summary of the case. It is quite evident from tel egraphic dispatches detailing the state of affairs at Osceola, Missis- sippi county, that serious compli- cations have arisen there. It will be remembered that John A. Love
 we'll and ]. w. Rhoades contested the election of Sheriff Bowen and Clerk Driver, of Mississippi coun- ty, and the supreme court recently decided i'll favor of the contestants, reversing the decision of the cir cult court and remanding the cases back for new trial. Subsequently Governor Davis revoked the com missions of Bowen and Driver and issued commissions for Lovewell and Rhoades. These commissions were carried to OSceola last week, and the governor s action made public. Bowen and Driver refused to surrender their offices, and great excitement is reported to exist in Mississippi county. The incum- bents contend that the governor has no right to revoke the Commis- sion of all officer elected by the people, that the supreme court i'll remanding the cases left the mat ter still i'll the courts, and that Lovewell and Rhoades have no right to commissions until the matter is finally settled. It is stated that armed partisans of both sides are only restrained from com ing into actual conflict by strenu
 ous efforts of good citizens who seek to avoid bloodshed. This state of affairs is certainly deplora
 ble, and for the good name Of the state we trust settlement of the cases may be had without further trouble. If it be true that the gover nor has exceeded his authority i'll revoking the commissions ot Messrs. Driver and Bowen before their cases are passed upon by the courts, the only thing to do will be to recall that action. It may be that the governor had precedent for his action in case of the re- moval of these officers, but i'll view of the fact that the cases were re- versed and remanded for a new trial if would seem to be doubtful.

The United States civil eommis- sion has announced that after three months trial of a provincial form of government in the islands of Cebu and Bohol and the province of Batan- gas, Luzon, control of these districts, owing to their incomplete pacifca- tion, has been returned to the mili- tary authorities, it having been proved that the communities are backward and undeserving of civil administration. The provincial and civil officers of these designated dis tricts will continue under the authority of General Chaffee, instead of that of Civil Governor Taft, as heretofore General Chaffee has the power arbitrarily to remove from office any or all provincial or civil officials and to abrogate any section of the laws promulgated in these three provinces.

A Joke That Failed.

Professor Rogers and DR.. Dale were
once lecturing in England, and at ev.
cry town which they visited DR.. Dale
noticed that his colleague. who always
spoke first. made the same speech. In
fact, so often did the professor give
that speech that the worthy doctor
knew it off by heart, and this fact led
the latter to think Of way of taking
the wind out Of bis friends sails.
On their arrival at a town in south
Lancashire DR.. Dale asked DR.. Rogers
to allow him to speak first, an arrange
ment to which the latter readily
agreed. 80 DR.. Dale rose and proceeded
to deliver the speech of DR.. Rogers,
looking every now and then out of the
corner Of his eye to see how that wor-
thy gentleman was taking this practi.
cal joke. DR.. Rogers sat calm and CON-
posed, and when at length his turn
came to speak be just as calmly rose
and delivered, to DR.. Dale's utter as
constituent. quite new speech.
At the conclusion of the meeting DR..
Dale said to his colleague:
n thought had taken the wind out
OF your sails tonight"
Dr.. Rogers replied: "Oh, no. de-
uvered that speech when ! was here q
month ago."

ROYAL CAFE ROBBERY.

The Royal Cafe was visited by burg.
lars last night who got away with
about $50 worth of silverware consist.
ing of sugar bowls and spoon holders.
Entrance was gained by the back
kitchen door and after the nocturnal
visitors got what they wanted they
left by way of the pantry window as
the screen was removed from the in
side.
The burglary took place between
the hours of half past nine and half
past ten, as the restaurant was clos
ed about 8 o'clock and the robbery
was discovered about 1890. The sugar
bowls and spoon holders were empti-
ed on the tables and nothing else
taken, although the silver knives and
forks were in plain sight.
The thieves evidently were not hun
cry, as number of pies and cakes
were on the pantry shelves, but were
not disturbed.
The authorities were notified imme-
diately, but although several clews
were found, no arrests have yet been
made.

FELL INTO DRAINAGE BRANCH.

FELL INTO DRAINAGE BRANCH.
George Blodgett, who resides on the
west side, near the creek, came very
near losing his little 3-year-old girl
Saturday afternoon. The little ones
were playing along the creek when
one of them pushed the little Blodgett
girl in.
The water is probably two feet
deep just there, with swift current,
and it was a miracle the little one
was not drowned. Her companions,
none of whom were over seven years
old, ran away screaming, when the
little girl went drifting down the
creek, but she managed to struggle
out without any assistance and ran
to her mother, wet and scared, but
unhurt. The children play along the
creek all the time and very small
tots too, and it will be a wonder if
some serious accident does not fol-
low.
