REFUSES NEGRO RESPITE.
Final Appeal Of Attorney For De- fendant Proves Unavailing-
 Letter of Governor.

Though Attorneys E. L. Grant and John Stayton and Judge o. w. Scar borough made another special trip to Little Rock Wednesday, where they had private audience with the Gov ernor and plead eloquently and warm ly for the life of their client, his ex- cellency stood firm upon his determi- nation not to interfere with the courts judgment. His position is we'll shown i'll the letter published below to his friend, J. R. Mayhan, of this city, wherein he holds that his duty cannot be sacrificed for friendship.
 The scaffold has been completed and the view about the same obstructed so as insure the privacy of the execu- tion. The condemned man, it is said, by the jailers, maintains composure and does not seem half so interested in the fate that awaits him as many of his race, who have been hanging around the jail building for several days.
 LETTER OF GOVERNOR.
 LITTLE ROCK, Sept. 24, 1902. MT. RILEY NATHAN,
 Newport, Ark.
 Dear Riley:-I have your esteemed favor of the 23d inst, asking me to extend the time for the execution of the negro recently convicted in your county for murder. I feel this is un- necessary and would only bring more horrors surrounding the hanging by putting it off. regret to have disap- pointed you and to have been forced under my conception of duty to de- cline to do what you want done; but this is the way see it. I am sorry you have become so wrought up over the matter as to feel almost a personal interest i'll it. This makes it all the harder to do what l conceive to be my duty in the premises, but under all the circumstances 1 think the negro had better pay the penalty prescribed by the law and given him by the court It was case of cold -blooded murder. and the only question I had about the matter was whether or not the negro was sane. That has been passed upon by the jury, who are supposed to be good citizens, and inasmuch as it was one negro killing another l feel that he got fair and impartial trial.
 With kind personal regards, I beg to remain,
 Yours very truly,
 JEFF DAVIS,
 Governor.

SECOND DAYS SESSION.
Proceedings Of Confederate Reunion At Hot Springs Senator Berry, General Cabell and Minor Wallace Address the
 G9tharipU
Gathering.

Gathering
 HOT SPRINGS, Ark, Sept 24-The second days session of the Confeder- ate reunion was opened this morning at Il o'clock, immediately after the parade, which began at 10 o'clock. It was an imposing affair, composed chiefly of old Confederates, besides the civic organizations of the city Gen. w. L. Cabell, known during the the war as "Old Tige," occupied car riage to which was attached a spIen- did pair of horses, and, pulling over to the side of the street, reviewed the parade. He was known to all of the veterans and was greeted with cheer after cheer as they passed The ma jority of them were attired in full gray uniform and presented an inspiring appearance.
 The session was opened, as usual, with prayer. The lobby, railways and porticos of the big Eastman hotel were packed with mass of humanity. Gen. Cabell delivered the first address of the day. It was strictly extempo- raneous and characteristic of the old soldier. Among some of his trite say ings was that he would not take in ex change for what he had done for the confederacy a lump of gold as large as the state of Texas or diamond the size of Arkansas. He requested the veterans present never to allow con federate soldier to be buried in pot ter's field if they could prevent it. He urged the sons of veterans to perpet- uate the memories of the confederacy by maintaining confederate camps. In this way the fires would be kept burning. His speech was greatly en joyed and appreciated.
 He was followed by Senator Berry in one of the most eloquent speeches ever heard at a Confederate reunion.
 The afternoon session began at 2:30 o'clock, with a crowded house, many ladies being in attendance. The en- tire session was consumed with an address by Hon. Minor Wallace Of Hope, who received the nomination for congress at the recent election from his district.
 The address was one of the most brilliant efforts ever made by this gifted orator. It was replete with "reminiscences of the civil war. lie paid an eloquent tribute to its leading generals, the late exPresident of the Confederacy Jefferson Davis and to the valor, endurance and loyalty of the Confederate soldiers and their wives, mothers and sisters during the war
 A grand ball was given tonight at the Arlington hotel in honor of the Confederates and their families. The election of officers will take place to- morrow.

THE DOGS TAIL.
It's Language In the Chase and When
the Animal Is Pleased.

In the case of all hunting dogs, such
as foXhounds or wolves. which pack to-
gether, the tail is carried aloft and is
very free in movement. 1t is also fire.
quently rendered more conspicuous by
the tip being white, and this is almost
invariably the case when the hounds
are Of mixed color. When ranging the
long grass of the prairie or jungle, the
raised tips of the tail would often be
all that an individual member of the
band would see of it's fellows.
There is no doubt that hounds habit
ually watch the tails of those in front
of them when drawing covert If a
faint drag is detected suggestive of the
presence of a fox, but scarcely suft-
cient to be sworn to vocally the tail of
the finder is at once set in motion, and
the warmer the scent the quicker does
it wag. Others, seeing the signal,
quickly join the first, and there is an
assemblage Of waving tails before even
the least whimper is heard.
Should the drag prove doubtful one,
the hounds separate again. and the
waving ceases but if it grows stronger
when followed up the wagging be-
comes more and more emphatic until
one after another the animals begin to
whine and give tongue and stream off
in Indian file along the line of scent.
When the pack is in full cry upon
strong scent, the tails cease to wave,
but are carried aloft in full view. The
moment when the dog most enjoys life
is the moment when he sights game.
That moment is the time when he
wags his tail most vigorously in order
to announce his discovery to his fellow
dogs.
In this way, by the habit of associa-
ton, he got to wagging his tail when
ever he was pleased. The more pleased
he is the more vigorously he wags his
tail, so that the wagging of dogs tail
under pleasurable emotions can be
traced directly to the time when the
dog used his tail as a signal of the dis
covery of his prey.-D. Prpvan in Scot
tish-American.

jake Smith, he of burning and
blasting fame in the island of Samar,
will not now be tried in the islands
on the charge of conduct prejudicial
to good order and discipline. The
court martial ordered by General
Chaffee has been dissolved and the
court of inquiry will be named at
Washington. The matter is getting
little too ticklish for the admins
tration to take any chances on the
action of any subordinate in the
premises. Although Lawler was ex-
onerated of the charges, which he
shouldered off upon Gen. jake Smith,
there is a growing sentiment in the
United States against the military
yoke.

FARMER JOE'S SPEECH.
1t Was Short, but 1t Crushed the
Bumptious YOungster.

1t Was Short, but 1t Crushed the
Bumptious YOungster.
"You may get the better of an oppo-
nent in debate" said an old time ora
toy. "by sheer force of convincing argu-
meae-that is to say, you may score
and win on points-but if you want to
put your man down and out at single
coup just make him ridiculous. Only
succeed in doing this, and all the logic
of the other side will explode in vacan-
cy like so many blank cartridges.
"Once when was serving term up
the state in the legislature bumptious
youngster who had just been introduc-
ed was laboring through his maiden
effort. He was attacking a man whit
was his senior by at least score and
ten years and thought to make hit by
referring to him as that little gray
beard from Herkimer.' Rymal of Mag
ara rose to reply. He was an old timer,
who never spoke unless he had some
thing to say and so was always sure of
an attentive audience. Farmer Joe, as
he was called, got up slowly, gradually
expanded himself to his full height of
feet 4, thrust his left hand behind the
tails of a capacious and somewhat
shabby frock coat, held up the index
finger of his right hand, cleared his
throat ominously and solemnly began:
"'Mr. Speaker. the honorable gentle
man who has just spoken has never
read Pope's essay. If he had, he would
remember that the "souls the standard
of the man." And, sir, fifty such souls
as that of the honorable gentleman
who preceded me could be put into the
skull of a flea and have as much room
there as two frogs in Lake SUPERIOR
HE didn't have to say more. The
chamber went into a CONFUSION of
laughter which lasted for several min
utes after the tall farmer had resumed
his seat. AS. for the youngster, he did
the best he could. He wriggled about,
got red in the face, tried to look uncon'
cerned and kept his mouth closed dur
ing the balance of the session."-New

NEW ODE TO SPRING.
Poet of the Forsyth Times Com.
munes With the Muses..

Poet of the Forsyth Times Com
munes With the Muses..
Spring-tne soft and gentle season
when the grass adrons the plains,
when the bureau says: Fair
weather" and it consequently rains.
Let us leave the brick and mortar of
the city for while, let us hasten to
the country there to watch Dame Ma
ture smile. In the woods the trees
are budding and the brooklet MUIR
murs low, and me birdlings soar to
heaven singing gayly as they go,
and the lamblets and the coltkins
gambol gladly on the green, and the
breeze is soft and fragrant, coming
from the south, we ween. There are
cattle on the nlllsides, there are duck
let's in the brakes, and the ranchman
yells like thunder when he steps
among some snakes; for the snakes,
those gentle creatures, waken from
their winter sleep, looking still for
cross-eyed Eve, sir, as they wiggle
and they creep. In the spring the
lusty ranchman drinks hard cider
from a can, throwing gobs of lurid
language at the indolent hired man.
In the spring the best of saddle
horses has a feeling awful gay, and
from out the man aforesaid very deft-
ly kicks the whey. In the spring the
frisky gardener plants his ham and
eggs and corn, and The chinch bugs
come and eat them, while he sleep
ETH in the morn. In the spring the
old SOW wanders to some quiet fen
or brake, and returns with steen
piglets loudly squeezing in her wake.
In the spring the ancient house dog
hides behind the bushes damp, wait
ing always, ever waiting, for a
chance to nail some tramp. In the
spring the bull so gentle, which has
been a pet for years, cores the poor,
confiding rancher, sits on him and
eats his ears. In the spring the
youths and maidens go to picnics in
the woods, packing with them in
their baskets bales of hay and other
goods; and they fall into the river
and the chiggers eat them up, and
they come back from the picnic swol-
len like a poisoned pup. o, we could
howl forever of the joys of balmy
spring; but this dose will be con
tined" until ''our next"-by jing!-

THE LIMIT WAS REACHED.
What Pat Got When He Asked For
a Raise In Salary.

What Pat Got When He Asked For
a Raise In Salary.
A story was often told by the late
Charles L. Tiffany of an importunate
Irishman who for many years had been
employed as window washer. His
pay had been raised quite as often as
was consistent with the dignity of his
position, but he seemed always hungry
Tor probably thirsty for more. At
length the firm decided that the limit
was reached. Not so Pat. Going one
morning to the inner sanctuary, he
sought audience with Mr.. Tiffany.
"Good mornin', Mr.. Tiffany" he CON-
menced artfully, seeking to preface his
errand by disinterested conversation.
GOOD morning, Patrick" was the
answer.
"And how are We this mornin', Mr..
Tiffany|
"Quite well, thank you, Patrick"
'And how are your wife and fami-
lyT
"Quite we'll, thank you, Patrick. But
what can do for you this morning?"
"Oi've been thinkin', Mr.. Tiffany,
thot Olive served We long and faithful
these twenty-foive years and thot OF
sh'ud have raise in me pay"
"You should be thankful, Patrick,
that you have been permitted to serve
so distinguished house as that of Tiff
fanny & Co. for twenty-five years. That,
with what we have already done for
you, should be sufficient. Good morn
ing, Patrick"
Good mornin', Mr.. Tiffany"
Realizing the futility of further
words, he left the room. Reaching the
outer Office, he was hailed by a chorus
from the ''boys," to whom his period
ical pilgrimages had become standing
joke:
"What did you get. Pat?'
Faith" was the ready answer, "Oi
got permission to kape me job, and Oh
