LOCAL ECHOES OF FIGHT.

The Keel bill now before the legis- lature for the elimination of Newport from the provisions of the three mile district local option law, has revived argument for and against prohibition here. A petition is being circulated by R. T. Simmons, urging the passage of the bill ard is said to already con- tain the names of a large number of signers.
 Rev. J. W. Smith informs the IN DEPENDENT that at Sunday evenings service, he took a rising vote on those opposed to the passage of the Keel bill and only fifteen remained seated.
 Capt. J. B. Wilmans, speaking as an individual and not representing the prohibitionists, said, that he would be willing to have the three mile law so amended as to exclude Jacksonport from having voice in the question as to whether or not Newport should have licensed saloons. Other prohi- tionists expressed themselves as of this opinion, but oppose strenuously the present Keel bill.

MANAGER UNDER ARREST.

The Duncan-Clarke minstrel com pany are temporarily stranded in Newport, owing to trouble with their manager, Kidd Berry, whom it seems took at least one too many at Bates vile Sunday and failed to reach here with the other members of the com pany and also delayed the shipment of scenery and baggage.
 A warrant was sworn out for his ar rest here Sunday night on the charge of embezzlement. He was taken in hand by Batesville officers and R. M. Laird left on the local Monday to bring him in on the evening passen- ger. It is thought probable that the case will be dismissed as soon as the manager is brought here and has time to sober up. The engagement at Morrilton has been cancelled.

WITNESSES LOANED
 DEFENDANT MONEY.
Fees Were Divided With Chancellor Leatherman In Presence of Liti- gants - Appointees Loaned
 Him Money.-So Say
 Witnesses.

Little Rock, Ark, March 294 he senate sat again yesterday as a court of impeachment to try Chancellor Le- land Leatherman of Hot Springs.
 F. c. Place of Hot Springs testified that he borrowed $400 from c. S. Bell, who was receiver in the Security Savings Bank case and of that amount he loaned Judge Leatherman $50, taking his personal note for the same. When the $400 note fell due witness paid it $250 in cash, with interest, and the Leatherman note.
 Ed Parham, deputy circuit clerk and chancery clerk at Hot Springs, said that he had served by appointment of Chancellor Leatherman, master and commissioner in chancery, fifteen or twenty different times. He had loaned respondent money in the neighborhood of $1OO, but that it was always done with the understanding that the money was to be paid back The first loan he ever made was $5. He made complaint about that and got credited on his account with his employer. The next loans were made after he was appointed master in chancery. A particular instance witness remembered having received fee of $20 in a certain case. When the bill was paid, the party paying was present and also respondent was present. When the money was paid, all parties being present, he showed Judge Leatherman $1O and kept $10 himself. Had no understanding with Judge Leatherman about the loans, or, in other words, there was no agreement that he was to divide the fees received as master in chancery with Judge Leatherman.

NUMBER AS
WORK ON THEBES BRIDGE.

The construction of the new canti- lever bridge over the Mississippi rlVer from Thebes to Gray's Point is rapidly being pushed and is, next to the East River bridge between New York and Brooklyn, the largest under construction in the United States. The total length of the bridge proper will be 2,750 feet, but including the mason- ry approaches and the earthwork will be 3,907 feet. It will be a double track structure, with a clearance of 2S feet between the trusses. The steel work will extend 1O3 feet below low water ana 65 feet above high wa ter. Six stone piers will support the steel work. The piers rest upon con- crete foundations, laid upon bedrock. which has been reached at corlpar- atlvely short distance below the river bed. The approaches will be by con- crete trestles, that on the Illinois side being 325 feet in length, with five arches, and that on the Missouri side f'o l0oU, WltH seven dfCn6S. The combined Illinois and Missouri earth work approaches will be 342 feet long. The Superstructure design is com posed of two fixed spans, four canti- lever arms and threG suspended spans. The central or channel span is 617 feet. Bed ore stone is used for the piers and granite for facing and be- low the high water mark. The cost of the complete structure is estimated by the engineers at $2,60O,Oo0 The Goulds for the Cotton Belt and the Iron Mountain, the Frisco for the Eastern Illinois, and the Illinois Gen. tral are the controlling interests in this undertaking.-DemocratNews, Fredericktown.

ATTRIBUTES OF AN ARKANSAN.

Hon. Jerre South, the Democratic medicine man of Baxter county, was in Little Rock recently, and while en- gagged in conversation with an East ern man who had only about a weeks acquaintance with the ways and man. ner7, the customs of Arkansans, was asked what were the attributes of true Arkansan.
 "Well, stranger. I'll tell you," re- sponded South, leaning back in his chair, hoisting both feet to the sum- init of sample trunk and patriotical- ly warming up to his theme. "The Arkansas citizen has all the sobriety of Kansas, the fearlessness of Texas, the sturdiness of Iowa, the frankness of Tennessee, the endurance of Min nesota, the thrift of Nebraska, the industry of Ohio, the conservative ness of Indiana, the energy of Illi- nois, the incredulity of Missouri the sauvity of Mississippi, the versatility of Georgia, the chivalry of Kentucky and if these attributes don't entitle the Arkansas citizen to all the cour- tesies in the calendar of social ameni- ties, then in the language of Tom Watson, would like to know where am I at."

CROWLEY'S RIDGE COAL FIND


 Forrest City, Ark, March 29.-Mr. Montgomery, very responsible and well-posted man, reports having To- cated coal mine of good quality of Arkansas coal eight miles east of here at the base of Crowley's ridge, in the Ferguson neighborhood. He recently purchased the land from Squire N. B. Nelson, 160 acres at nominal sum, after having held an option on it for some time, and had an expert to visit and inspect and they pronounce it good Arkansas coal.
