DR.. CALDWELL EXPLAINS PLAN

The Minister'S association has held
several meetings recently looking to
the organization OF united charities
association. A definite plan has now
been promulgated. This plan, in gen
erai outline, contendplates the crea
ton of an organization composed of a
representative from each of the con
gregations represented in the Ministers
association, the Y. NJ. C. A., and sucn
of our benevolent orders as are willing
to cooperate in the work 1t is desired
to make the work and its management
entirely undenc,minational and 20 en-
list the sympathy and support of all
the charity loving people of our city.
With this end in view meeting viii
be held next Monday morning at $50
in the Merrill Institute parlors for pre-
.iminay organization. 1t is hoped that
at that time each congregation will
have lay representative present and
special invitation is extended to each
of the benevolent orders to do the
same. Lack of time has made it i'm
possible for the Minister'S association,
as yet, to bring the matter formally
before any bodies outside the Ministers
association.
A room at the Merrill Institute has
been kindly rendered as a depot of sup
plies.
1t is contemplated t. so district the
city that no needy person will fail to
receive prompt and efficient relief.
To accomplish all this, the plan in
wolves the sympathetic cooperation of
good women. To this end each minis
ter will furnish the names of five ladies,
living in different parts of the city, who
can be depended on for such ministra-
tions as only women can render.
The telephone VIII make this seem
ingiy complex work very simple in
deed.
There will also be definite and
responsible head, who will in himself
be a pledge of practical charity wisely
administered. J. L. CALDWELL,
Chairman.

The approaching holiday season
leads us to express to the public our
best wishes for a merry Christmas and
a happy New Year.
With the New Year comes the first
anniversary of our entrance into the
real estate field. In token of that
event We desire to thank most hearth
ly those who have favored us With their
patronage and bespeak for them al
ways the same courteous treatment
and prompt attention to their business
as that rendered by us during the first
year of our business era. To those
who have not favored us with their
business should occasion arise whereby
they recognize the fact that we can
give them better service than othe:s,
and should they engage us to repre-
sent their interests, we unhesitatingly
promise them the most unremitting
service and prompt attention. Wishing
you the compliments of the season, We
are, hustlingly yours,

BY JUDGE WOOD OUTLINED
JOINT DISCUSSION AT PRES.
cOTT.
Nothing Sensational Occurred and Rain
Prevented Presence Of Large
Attendance.

Prescott, Dec. 19.-The three candi-
dates for governor spoke t. the people
OF this county at the opera house yes
terday. The inclement weather pre-
vented large crowd mrom attend
ing.
The speaking was opened by Judge
Wood at 1:10 O'Clock. About three
hundred people were present The au-
dience was very respectful and gave
careful attention to the judges re-
marks. He spike for one hour and
half upon the great resources of Ark
ansas and what reforms he proposed
to inaugurate if elected governor. He
favored better school laws, the COM
pletion of the new capital building.
refrom school, a pardoning beard, and
the successful working of the Cum
Wis pardon record and dwelt at length
upon the Pomp Brown and DR.. John.
son cases.
Judge Wood failed tc, touch upon the
antitrust question. His speech was
greeted with applause. At 1890 a re-
cess was taken for dinner
Speaking was resumed at 1:45 o.
clock by Governor Davis, who has con
tracted a Gerry severe cold since Tues
day and was quite hoarse. The audi
ence gave the most careful attention to
the governors remarks. The most of
his speech was devoted to the anti.
trust law, and he severely criticised
the supreme court and Judge Wood
for what he termed their dereliction of
duty. The last legislature came in for
portion of the governors attention,
and the matters upon which the inves-
tigating committee tried the governor
were touched on, the governor giving
his version of the case. Several tilts
between the governor and the other
two candidates were had. but nothing
sensational occurred.
Mr.. Vandeventer closed the debate
in a good-natured speech of about an
hour, in which he severely criticised
Governor Davis and his record Those
who remained to hear him were I'M
pressed with his speech
The only new features of the speak
ing were the time that Judge Wood
gave to the reforms he proposed to in
augurate if elected governor. and the
extra time Governor Davis devoted to
the antitrust question.

The Little Rock Gazette says: .,tr.
w. H. Langford's name has been men-
toned very prominently in connection
with the Democratic nomination for
governor, but he stated yesterday that
he had no idea of entering the race at

being identified with number Of
fnacial and mercantile enterprises at
his home in Pine Bluff and, although
has received numerous requests to
become candidate for governor, he
prefers to give his attention to his
private interests"

Prospects Fair for Heated Fight for
TALK OF STRONG CANDIDATES

County and city politics seem te
be coming along slowly but surely.
Very few announcements have been
made up to this time but the air IS full
of rumors of prospective candidates for
office. Most CT the men mentioned
seem to be afraid 10 announce until af.
ter the holidays. Those who have al
ready announced seem TO have things
all their own way, The announcement
Of Hon. II. Kemp Toney as a candidate
for senator has met with such popular
favor that it is now generally conced-
ed that he will have no opposition in
the race. Messrs. Johnson and Cole
man for city clerk and city attorney al
Sc stand alone in the race.
Prospects for lively campaign for
the office Of county judge seem to
be eminent. for three old campaigners
are avowing their intention Of going
before the people for this Office, and
this will probably be the hottest race
III eiiC County, IL lS IutIlOl eu LndC JuuSe
Phillips will have opposition in his
plan to make the courthouse a city hall
and that this may be one Of the issues
in the campaign.
There are so many citizens mention
ed for the office of representative that
it is hard to tell which candidate will
announce. AT present rumors Of at
least ten candidates are aflOat in poll
tical circles, but NJ, announcements will
be made until after holidays Several
prominent citizens are being urged to
run, and it is assured that Jefferson
county will be we'll represented in the
next legislature
Mr.. f. b. Blooms retirement from
the office OF county clerk also brings
strong candidates to the front for that
office. Four men are being mentioned
fsr the Office Of constable
Walter Goodwin has heard Of no op-
position to his race for Circuit clerk
Though politics has been very quiet
so far this year there are prospects Of
lively campaign, and many issues
will be presented to the voters.

Negro. Supposed to be Insane. Makes
Trouble for Farmers Near Waukexan.
A colored man, quite demented, ter.
rorized the farmers near the York
house on the Waukegan road south OF
Kenosha ali of Friday, to such an ex.
tent that they assigned one Of their
young men to the task of watching
him in order to sound the alarm if the
fellow did anything terrible. Mounted
on horseback and carrying shotgun
the young man rode back and forth
past where the negro was on his knees
going through decidedly queer antics,
from 9 O'Clock in the morning until
O'Clock at night.
Finally word was taken to Wauke.
gan by Mrs. ]. Eddy, and Sheriff
Powell and Policeman Erickson went
to the place. captured the negro, who
proved to be perfectly harmless, and
took him there, where he was put
on street car and sent to Evanston,
where he said he had friends.
The mans name was Knight, and he
came from Troy, N. Y. He had been
employed in one of the restaurants in
Chicago, but got out of work through
the strike Of walters. He wandered
up into Lake county and said he was
doing Gods work.
When seen near the York house his
antics were decidedly unique. He
would rap twice on stick, waen he
said the birds in the trees would an
swer his knocks and talk to him.
The fellow also claimed that while
in the performance he saw and talked
to his wife through the trees. She
has been dead three years, but KING hit
says he had quite lengthy converse
ton with her. The man is about
thirty years old.
While he was not in the least vio-
lent, it is long time since the farmers
of the locality have been scared to
such pitch.
