MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.
Fifteen Months Old Baby At swifton Run Over By An Engine And Ten Cars With Only Slight
 Injury.

Little short of the miraculous is the story of the escape of fifteen months old child at Swifton, who was run over by an engine and ten cars and yet lives, with but slight wound on the head to tell the awful experience.
 The baby of c. 0. Nicholson, living on the Baird property at Swifton had been out under the care of a brother, when through northbound freight was noticed but short distance away. The little boy ran and the engineer in his cab thought the little white speck upon the track was only piece of paper, until the train was fairly upon the child.
 Then he reversed and came near wrecking the train, so suddenly did he bring it to stop. The cow-catcher had struck the infant, knocking the little one to the ground and probably producing inconsistencies. But this very fact helped to save it's life, for had it tried to arise while the train was rushing over it, death would no doubt have resulted.
 When the mother saw the coming train she ran to the track and before the wheels had hardly ceased turning, the baby was pulled forth from it's perilous position half way between the rails When the rescue had been ac- complished the mother swooned and would have fallen had she not been caught by the strong arms of railroad men who had gathered around. The engine and ten cars had passed over the infant, who was uninjured ex- cept for small gash on the back of the head.
 The accident happened early Mon- day morning and that afternoon the baby was playing about as if no such thrilling experience had ever been undergone.

The discovery of several centena- rians in North Arkansas, whose names have been brought forward by news papers of the different sections, has turned the attention of people to the ages of other animals than man. New port has at least one ancient inhabit- ant for it's specie in an old white house cat, that for a score of years has been looking to w. B. Chastain for the wherewithal to sustain life. The town may be low and require levee for it's protection, but so long as cats live to the ripe old age of twenty, who is there who will dare call this an un- healthy city.

SITE SELECTED FOR
 STATE BUILDING.

St. Louis, Sept. 30 In the presence of large crowd, including the gover- nors of ten states and territories, to- gether with a large delegation of gov ernment officials from Washington, the site for the Arkansas building at the worlds fair was formally allotted.
 President Francis delivered the opening address. He dwelt at length on the splendid resources and indus tries of Missouri's neighbor state, and called attention to the fact that her appropriation for worlds fair ex hibit was as large as any state in the Union commensurate with her size. He thought the location of the Arkan- sas building, which will be situated at the northeast entrance to the grounds, would give universal satisfaction.
 In reply to President Francis, Gov ernor Davis and Manager Thomas Mi Ian of the state commission made brief addresses.
 Gov. Davis said he would give assu- rance that the people of Arkansas meant to show the state's resources to the world, and the fact that Hot Springs alone was getting up a $30,- 900 exhibit exemplified the deep and substantial interest which Missouri's sister commonwealth is manifesting iu the enterprise. Gov. Davis declared that Arkansas would expend $500, ,000 on building and exhibits at the worlds fair
 The Arkansas commissioners were entertained at a banquet held under the auspices of the exposition officials at the Country Club today. At the table with the chief executive of Ar kansas, sat Gov. A. M Cookery, of Missouri, Gov. Sayres, of Texas, and former Gov. w. D. Hoard, of Wiscon- sin.
 The Arkansas delegation was hon. ored at a reception to the lady board of managers at the Southern hotel to- night.

 Brinkley, Sept. 3O.- About o'clock this afternoon Tom Brannel of Wheat ley was shot and killed by Dennis Camp, an employe of McKnight's liv- cry stable. Marshal Perry Gillespie, who had just gone into store, heard the pistol shot in the direction of the stable and immediately jumped out of the side door and saw Camp in the street with a pistol in his hand and Brannel just falling to the ground. Camp stated to Marshal Gillespie that Brannel had run him out of the stable with knife, and that he shot him. He at once surrendered to Marshal Gil- lespie.
 On examination Brannel was found to have bullet hole in his head which penetrated the skull justabove the left eye toward the temple and ranged to the back of the head. He lived about thirty minutes, but did not speak.
 An inquest was held and verdict rendered stating the fact of his death as mentioned.
 The two men had difficulty in this city several weeks ago. Considerable feeling was manifested, and Camp was removed to Clarendon, where he is in the custody of Sheriff Milwee

COTTON GOSSIP.

There is feeling to utterly ignore the
bad government, and privat reports
would indeed be rash. but others say the
bad government reports are ridiculous.
and that many of the private reports are
gross exaggerations, and that we will
see an avalanche of cotton at the towns
and ports In the next sixty days that
will cause a lower market.
There is some talk of cold weather in
the South. Government says the tenn
perature has fallen decidedly from Gulf
States eastward and Northwest, and. is so
to II degrees below the seasonable ave-
rage.
January around 50 or thereabout is be-
lieved to be sale for turn.
