GOOD FOR .IEFF.

Governor Davis on Tuesday granted q pardon 10 Andrew Thompson, a negro convicted ill Prairie county in September, 1900 of assault with intent to kill and sentenced to three years in the penitentiary. The petition was largely signed by white people.
 In the above announcement the average reader will find but little interest, but the following, as the conditions upon which the pardon is granted, js what tickles our fancy.
 Having just returned from the North and haylng heard many ey- pressions of sympathy by the cili. zeGs of Massachusetts for what they were pleased to call the poor oppressed negro of the South. and dcsiliug that they shall have an opportunity torefolm d certain portion of tue negro population of our state; Therefore, l lief ferson Davis, Governor of the state of ArHansas, by virtue os the constitution and authority vested in me ly the constitution and laws of Arkansas, do grant unto Andrew Thompson, q negro, full and free pardon on condition that Ae become within the next thirty days citizen of Mas,a chuscttS."

a marked interest in children of all
classes. The schools, orphanages,
homes and sanitariums which have
been founded by her or through her
initiative are numerous In her coun-

Queen Helene, of Italy, has many
interests. Her favorite amusements
are shooting and driving motor car.
She is an excellent shot and an untir-
ing walker, having been used to
spending days with. her father and
brothers on the mountains of her ma
tive land.
The queen OF Greece's favorite rec
reation is yachting. She is an excel

of the Russian imperial house who
bears the rank of an admiral in the
Russian navy-a unique honor be-
slowed on her by Gar Alexander.
The favorite amusements of Queen
WilheImina are skating and riding,
but as a child her hobby was the
keeping of poultry. Her hajesty is
devoted to animals and is averse to
sport, Gs she cannot bear TO think OF
the animals in her preserves being
slaughtered.
Like Queen Alexandra, the German
empress hobby is photography. Her
collection of pictures is unique and
comprises every kind of scene, beau

met on her eastern travels, portraits
of her children, of her husband and
other relatives, pictures Of her chill
