The railroad comm .sslon of Ar kansas has issued circular No. S6 requiring carriers to receive all ship ments when rendered for transporta- ion and setting forth that the fact that d railroad carrier has not at its command rolling stock and equip ment sufficient to accommodate all shippers by forthwith transporta- ton, does not excuse it from receiv- ing the property, if an ordinary ship ment, when rendered it, and issuing

If the carrier has no storage or platform room, 1t must find way to take care of the property until It is transported to destination and stored or delivered to the consignee.

Fight With a Crazy Negro.

Officers had an exciting time talk ing into custody d demented negro named John Harcrow at Little Rock one day last week The negro visited the home of d number of peo- pie and attempted to assault women when he found them alone, in each instance taking to his heels when his intended victim made an outcry. The police were notified and after a hot chase brought their man at bay in a clump of bushes on the out skirts of the city. Harcrow fought like a demon, and when finally over powered was almost naked, his cloth ing being torn into shreds by his captors. When arraigned it was seen that the man was crazy, and he was committed to the county hos pital.

Tragedy at Hot Springs.

The tragic death of John D. Ware at his home in Hot Springs caused great sensation. Ware was es- corted to his home in an intoxicated condition early in the evening by friend. A few hours later two pistol shots fired at short intervals attracted a neighbor, who found Ware lying on the floor of his bed room in his night clothes, bleeding from two wounds and in the last throes of death. One ball entered the back and passed through the heart, the other entering the left knee. The pistol was held so close to the man that his body was badly powder burned. When the shooting occurred, or when neighbors arrived, no one was in the house except Ware and his wife and small children. Mrs. Ware had nothing to say that would throw any light on the re- sponsibiity of the killing. Ware had been drinking to excess several months before his death. Some time ago Mrs. Ware brought suit for dl- vorce, but the case never came to trial,

~The gullibility of majority of the citizens of this state makes sad condition of affairs. It is menace to the rights and liberties of the people and unless the voters think more seriously and use more judgment when they go to the polls to vote, some day we will wake up to find that we have elected men who will try to enforce the measures they advocated upon the stump. The only thing that has saved us i'll the past is the fact that the demagogue i'll many in- stances has not attempted to make good his ante election promises. It looks like we have reached a time when the man who promises the most unreasonable things is the man who gets elected and no one seems to take any notice that he disregarded his word.

Met Death at the Hands of His Wife.

The coroner's jury investigating the death of J. D. Ware at Hot Springs found that he came to his death al the hands of his wife. The 20-year-old son of the couple testi fled that he had gone over the case with his mother, and that she talked of the tragedy in a manner that led him to believe she had almost com pletely lost her mind The young man stated that his mother had been granted a divorce, but had no money to get away with. Continuing, young Ware said: For years she had been abused and outrageously treated at the hands of the man she killed. She was a slave to terri ble master. No dog ever received such treatment as she did. Father has sat in his room, his face flushed with whisky and said, '1'll kill her, the old wench. Such has been going on for more than year. He has made attempts to kill mother on sev- eral occasions. Such humiliation be- fore a proud woman in the presence of her children was enough to break the spirit of any one and to wreck her mind forever" During his state ment young Ware showed that he was laboring under great strain, and while taking his mothers part his references to his father were free from bitterness. The sympathy of the community seems to be almost entirely with Mrs. Ware, and her children.

 Joe Harris, colored, was killed during a dance at his home in Alt heimer and Andrew Brogan was ar rested charged with being party to the crime During the evening two women became involved in a diff cnlty when some one fired a shot, which killed Harris. The evidence before the coroner's jury led the off eers to suspect Brogan and Henry Ward, but the latter, hearing that he was wanted made his escape.

This has been a seasonable year for wheat i'll Faulkner county, but unfortunately there is very little wheat. The high prices for cotton last fall turned the attention of the farmers from wheat. It is now too late for wheat, the prospect for cot ton is not good and there is little hope that prices for cotton will be as good as last fall. Farmers can make no mistake by making their provisions at home.

A Fire Insurance Man.

Mir c. c. Fleming of Atlanta, secretary of the Southeastern Tariff Association of Fire Insurance Companies, and one of the best informed and most widely known insur- ance men in the country, was in Brming- ham yesterday looking after insurance in terests. MT. Fleming is tactful business man of great force of character and en- gazing manners and appears to be pecu- liarly fitted to represent one of the most powerful of all business organizations, and one which most nearly affects the general business well-being of the community-the association of the great companies which insure against loss by fire.
 "It is a common occurrence for men to de- cry the Southeastern Tariff Association, but its entire purpose is the public good" said an insurance man. Mississippi is the only State which has consistently and relent- lessly fought the association, and the fire insurance rates in that State are 25 per cent in excess of the rates in Alabama and the other states"

Flau But No Constitution.

The administration is greatly encour- aged. It dreams of empire begun to materialize The millionaire world be- gins to see it's way to strong gov ernment. Cuba was ceded in the treaty of Paris, and the United States Su- preme Court holds that an act of Con- gress which practically assumes that Cuba is foreign territory, is constitu- tional. The administration sees herein hope that the court will also place Porto Rico and the Philippines outside the constitution, thus establishing at one sad whack colonies and an empire.
 Nicely should of course be carried to Havana and tried there, and the circumstances attending the Cuban case are not the circumstances that go along with the cession of Porto nico and the Philippines. The latter are the circum- stances in all material respects of Ari- zona, Alaska and Hawaii. The drawing of the line will be an interesting event if the Supreme Court should decide that the constitution does not follow the flag in Porto Rico and the Philippines if those islands are not, in the words of the Nicely case, 'in any constitu- tional, legal or internal sense a part of the territory of the United States"
 There is a world of meaning in that word internal" Porto Rico and the Philippines were ceded by Spain, as Florida and part of Alabama had been ceded by that power to the United States. Wherein are they not part of it in an internal" sense! What does the word internal in the Nicely de- cision mean? It is thought that the meaning of this word internal is the nail upon which the Porto Rico and Philippine decisions are to be hung by a divided court.

SARAH GRAND's APHoRIsMs

From the Philadelphia Saturday Evening
 Post.
 Madame Sarah Grand is a frequent after dinner. speaker at womens banquets but it is nos often that the general public he S chance of seeing her. But lately she con- sented to talk on the art of happiness. These are some of her aphorisms
 There are minor pleasures whose effect is accumulative, and which make up a happy life
 Even In choosing to be miserable we are happy, since there is happiness in every act of choice.
 Amongst women the desire to work is not so common that it should be discouraged
 There is a great deal of difference be- tween a copy and an imitation.
 The misery children make for their pa- rents Is well known; the misery parents make for their children not well.
 The two great sources of happiness are health of body and strength of mind.
 Tn recipes for happiness goodness must always be the principal ingredient.
 When people begin to be critical they cease to be pleasant.
