BURGLARY AT BOWEN'S

When the clerks of o. M. Bowen re- ported for work Thursday morning, the two doors to the rear part of the store were both found open, but upon investigation, nothing was found missing.
 Two suspicious characters, standing near the Laurel Street entrance were shot at twice by Night Officer Huff man about midnight, and it is MT. Bowen's opinion that the man on the inside was preparing to let them in, but the shooting scared them all away. MT. Bowen believes that one of the robbers hid in the store during the evening and was locked in for the night.

PEARLS AND SHELLS.

An egg shaped pearl weighing over 100 grains, which will require pealing before worth any large sum, and per- haps after that prove valueless, was brought to this market Thursday morning by white pearl hunter from Black River. He expects to wait over Saturday, when the outside buyers will be here.
 Shells took another spurt upwards Wednesday, commanding as high as $9.50 delivered here, but the market Thursday was very quiet,-a calm after the storm.
 c. D. Lafferty and other members of the Monarch Shell Company went down the river Thursday. They pay $6 to $6.50 for shells on the bank and then tow them by barge to Newport. MT. Lafferty believes that the output of shells on White river will continue to increase, as the Mississippi river supply has proven very disappointing. An able man can get out and clean an average per day of 1000 shells on White river, while the best workmen on the Mississip pi hardly average more than 200 pounds.

BRYAN AT LITTLE ROCK.
Confidence In Future Of Democracy and His Own Faith
 In Kansas City Platform.

Hon. W. J. Bryan lectured in Little Rock Tuesday night, before good sized audience, says the Commercial Appeal, "The Conquering Hero" being his theme.
 He was a guest of Maddox Female Seminary Tuesday afternoon, and de- livered an address to the young lady students. His coming to Little Rock was quite different from his last visit three years ago, when he was met at the depot by multitudes of people, who gathered about him and followed him throughout the day. Today he came solitary and alone and went to his hotel in 'bus, no one being at the hotel or depot to meet him. He made the following statement during the afternoon:
 "l am as thoroughly convinced of the correctness of the principles of the Kansas City platform as I was in 1900, and I have confidence that they will yet be realized. The time will come when the policy of the republi- can party will fail, and if the Demo- cratic party will remain steadfast in defense of the peoples interests it will yet be turned to for relief. Just now the developments in the Phil ippine islands are showing the brutal influence of an imperialistic policy, and the beef trust is emphasizing the evils of private monopoly. When the Fowler bill is brought up for dis cussion the people will find that the money question is still a live ques- tion."

GURDON MADE A LOCAL DIVISION.

The local division of the Iron Noun tain railroad was changed last Monday from Malvern to Gurdon. The change is looked upon as much to Gurdon in a financial and business standpoint as we'll as time and labor saver by the railway company and the local train men. This point being almost central from Little Rock to Texarkana is prime reason for the change which has taken place.-Gurdon Times.

SECURE ENTRANCE INTO ST. LOUIS.

II.
 St. Louis, April 3O-M. A. Low, gen eral attorney of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railway, stated today that his road had purchased the St Louis, Kansas City & Colorado rail road, operating between St. Louis and Union, Mo-, and had authorized the Mercantile Trust Company to negoti- ate for the purchase of the Wiggins Ferry stock at $500 a share.
 With the purchase of the St. Louis, Kansas City & Colorado railroad the Rock Island secures right of way into St. Louis and with the acquisition of the property of the Wiggins Ferry Company ample terminal facilities will be had.
 MT. Low declined to state the price paid for the Colorado road, negotia- tions for which, he said, had been go- ing on for several weeks. He said the Mercantile Trust Company had se- cured an option on majority of the stock of the Wiggins Ferry Company, the purchase price of which would be more than the $5,OOO,OOO recently mentioned.

WINE OF CARDUI '1';= ::; = = al

by some of these congressman provid-
ing for the repeal of the differential on
refined sugar came up for discussion,
son as stated by one of those present,
that it might open the way for various
amendments to the tariff law. Even
though the house limited the amend
ment to repeal of the differential alone,
when the bill reached the senate an
effort, it is declared, would be made to
add other amendments and lead to
revision of various features of the
tariff. Since the arrival in Washington
of General Wood and President-elect
Palma, the president has received a
great deal of additional information re-
garding affairs in Cuba and is strength
ened in his belief that greater conces-
sions than that proposed by the ways
and means committee bill should be
given to Cuba for a time. 1t is prob
able that representations of this char
acter were made to the congressman,
but if so they decline to admit the fact
One of those present at the conference
said:
No time has as yet been fixed for
considering the reciprocity bill in the
house. have no doubt an oppor-
tunity will be made to amend the bill
along various lines, but my opinion is it
viii be adopted substantially as agreed
on by the ways and means committed
There is nothing to say about our con-
ference with the president except that
it was for the purpose of discussing the
general situation, in which there are
no new Developments
