DAVIS AND BERRY TO
 FIGHT 1T OUT ALONE
Will Only be Two Candidates For
 Arkansas Senatorship.
Others Decline to Enter the Race and Davis and Berry Will Begin
 Campaign Early.

Advises from Little Rock state that it is now fully settled that there will be but two candidates for United States Senator next year, to succeed Senator James Fl. Berry, whose term will expire the year following. The Senator is a candidate for reelection, and his only opponent will be Governor Jefferson Davis, who announced some time ago that he would op- pose Senator Berry.
 Efforts to induce Congressman $. Brundidgc of Searcy and Hon. w. H. Martin of Hot Springs to enter the contest failed, as both gentlemen positively decline to be considered as candidates. Mir. Brundidge says that he would not run under any circumstances against Senator Berry, but if the Senator should decide not to again be candidate he would most cer- tainly measure swords with Gov ernor Davis. As Senator Berry has positively announced for re- election, Mr. Brundidge wishes to be considered as eliminated from the contest.
 Gov. Davis has informed few of his close friends that he will begin active canvass shortly after the adjournment of the next legis- lature, and 1t is generally believed that Senator Berry will do like wise. The contest will be settled in the uniform and general prima- ries inside the Democratic party, and the candidate receiving the highest number of votes in the State will be declared the nominee by the next Democratic State Con. yention. This was settled in s resolution adopted at the State Convention held at Hot Springs last June. Senator Berry ane Governor Davis approved of the plan.

HE KNEW MANY NoTABLES
Horace Binney, old-Time Member of the Philadelphia Bar, Acquaint-
 ed with Presidents.

While many persons have known Lincoln and Grant, and a few were acquainted with Wash. ington and Lincoln, so far as am aware but one person was ever born into this world who knew the triumvirate of uncrowned Amer ican kings, declares Gen. James Grant Wilson, in Cornhill Maga- zine. That individual was Horace Binney, leader of the Philadel- phia bar, and among the foremost leaders of the profession through out the land, and with whom spent a memorable hour in the year 1874. During that delightful interview he stated that when a youth his home was near Presi- dent Washington's Philadelphia residence. and he had met him al most daily for several years, and that he frequently held conversa- tionswith the general. Mir. Binney also mentioned the interesting fact that he had been acquainted with every president of the United States up to the time of Grant, during whose second administra- ton he passed away at the age of ninety-fiye.

COUNTED BY ELECTRICITY.
Machine Does the Work of Eight Men in Sorting and Wrapping
 Money.

Almost every one, from the mil
 lonaires of Wall street down to the hHmblest beotblack, has felt the necessity of making money quickly and easily, the counting of 1t being matter of secondary inn eortance, says the New York Her. aid. However, the coin of the realm was produced, whether in the form of bright copper pennies or one thousand dollar gold 4eer- tiieates, il would seem like throw ing the gauntlet down to fate to object to counting them. Yet there are times and conditions when men long for a machine ca- pable of counting their money for them. Hence, the electric motor coin counting and wrapping ma chine.
 The object of such device is ob- yiously to facilitate the rapid and accurate counting and hundling of coins of all descriptions, from pen nies to dollars, since there are many lines of business which neees- sitate the employment of large staff of clerks whose sole duty heretofore has been the perform ance of this kaborious task.
 The machine counts and wraps coins at the rate of seven every second, or 420 coins every minute, and does this continuously as long as the motor runs and coins are fed into the hopper. The coins are wrapped eompactly at the rate of from eight to twelve bundles per minute, according to the size of the coins.
 Since an expert Is only enabled to count and wrap 50 coins a min ute manually, it will be seen that the machine will do at least as much work as eight men. It is true that each machine requires an operator, whose work consists of a mere cursory examination of the coins, to see that there are no plugged pieces, iron washers and lead slugs mixed with good mon- ey. The speed of the machine is limited only by the ability of the operator to detect the spurious coins. When the machine is in op. eTation the coins are laid upon a table to facilitate examination, when they are dropped into hop per, whence they slide through q conduit down into the active mech anism, where they are pushed into a row. When the last coin has been forced into its place by a re- ciprocating push bar the coins are automatically transferred from buncher to the wrapper while a new row is being brought into po- sition.
 As the coins reach the wrapper a roll of paper is fed by three driv. ing rolls placed around the bundle of coins. By rolling motion the paper is wrapped around the coins twice, when it is cut off by V. shaped knife. The next and fin. shlng process is turning in the projecting edges of the wrapper, which is done by means of crimp- ITS, drawing the edges in opposite directions, and finally turning out ! smoothly rolled package held firmly in place without the use of 1aste.
 As the inventor facetiously re- marked, the reason a coin count. ng and wrapping machine had lever before been invented was because inventors never had mon y to count. The business of the nventor of this particular device vas to collect, count and bundle 'ennies taken in by weighing and 'ther slot machines.
