Billy Rice's Body Unclaimed,

Hot Springs. Ark, March 1O.-Will
the body of Billy Rice, the veteran
minstrel, find it's way to an unclaimed
spot in potter's field, or will friends
give it the burial that is accorded
more fortunate beings who have
achieved wealth and have not let it
slip away before the departure for the
next world? This question is serious
ly disturbing the undertaken who has
in charge the remains of the veteran
minstrel. More than a week ago, in
a small room, surrounded by a party
of friends, he passed away as peace
fully and as contented as if all ar
rangements might have been prear-
ranged for great tribute to his mem
ory, but tonight he lies on board in
the morgue, unclaimed and unburied.

THE CODE REVISION,
Important Work Entrusted to
Competent Hands-Eco-
nonnical Arrangement.

Mr.. John Garland Pollard and Mr.. Jacob
N. Brenanan are now hard t work on
the contract recently awarded them by
the joint finance committee of the two
houses. in connection with the work OF
re-codifying the statutes Of the State.
The work to be done by these gentlemen
is that authorized by the act recently
passed, apprcpriating s500 to facilitate
and expedite the work Of code revision.
It is, in a sense revision. and is no
small task. and one we'll worth the sum
to be expended. In fact, the State will
save money under the arrangement az
fected, for if the work were not referred
to some such commission by contract. it
would have to be done by the two houses
or by the committees thereof, and both
bodies would have to sit while it was
being done.
Mr. Pollard and Mr.. Brenaman will
cut copies Of the Code Of 1887 into sec
tons and paste them on paper. leaving
q wide margin for amendments. and cut
ting out all the repealed statutes and
substituting in lieu thereof those passed
to supersede them. Wherever changes
in the present sta tutes have become nee
essary result of the changed Constitu-
ton. places will be left to insert them in
these pasted pages. The two gentlemen
will, in effect bring the code up to the
December session Of 1902. with the stat.
utes arranged in their proper sequence.
leaving only the new statutes to be drawn

at the present session to be inserted
There IS vast amount OF legislation not
an1endatory OF, but supplementary to. the
Code OF 1887, which must be inserted. This
amounts to between 700 and 500 pages. II
aust be cut. classified and pasted In Its
roper place and sequence.
This work is practically Just what the
General Assembly several times refused.
after spirited debates. to refer to COM
mission or even to q joint committee OF
the two houses. It is far cheaper than
the work could otherwise be done. and 1t
is doubtful If two more competent men
could have been secured to do the work.
The bill proposing the appropriation for
this purpose was drawn and offered by
Mr. R. S. Blackburn Smith. Of Clarke,
who. foreseeing the economy of such
procedure. deemed it best to recomm end
the small expenditure. rather than subject
the State to one very much larger for
work that must be done.
