While Brenda was striving to grasp
the full meaning Of this, being well as
sured that Elsie spoke wit ha definite
purpose. there came a rap at the door,
announcing the morning visit of DR..
Kendall. Brenda was sufficiently and
very becomingly attired, and not SO
much as a single shining thread of her
hair showed the smallest disarray, yet
she could not help feeling a sense Of
disadvantage. Having leaned upon the
Conventionalities quite steadily all her

DR.. Kendall was to her a young man
whom she had met in society rather
than physician. She was surprised
and little ashamed TO find that this
was true.

from Elsie longer than he would have
wished and that strange thing which

Opposed to Joint Debate.

Hon. Sid B. Redding, president
of the republican state league, has
issued an address, urging local club
officials to put forth every effort to
strengthen the organization for the
coming campaign. Mr. Redding
urges discussion of the question
of participating in joint debates be-
tween candidates for state offices.
The last republican state league
convention declared against this
system, and it seems to be the opin-
ion of leading members of the re-
publican party that joint debates be
discontinued in the future.

Negroes Leaving Mississippi.

Negroes in large numbers are
aoeking into this state from Louisi-
ana and Mississippi, and if the e1-
odns keeps up farmers by next year
will have no trouble in securing all
the labor they need. But there Is
one point in connection with this in
fux, great many of the newcomers
will flock to the larger towns, where
there are already a large class who
are endeayoring to exist by doing as
little work as possible. There is
plenty of room in this state, how
ever, for all honest men who are
willing to work for a living.

Santa and the De at Mute Children.

Superintendent /. B. Yates of
the deaf mute institute has an
nounced to the patrons that as there
is no appropriation from which to
provide for Christmas gifts to the
pupils, and as under the rules they
are not permitted to spend the holi-
days at home, all contributions for
the purpose above mentioned will be
gratefully received. In circular
the superintendent says: eve feel
sure you will all help and be glad
to. We want each parent to con-
tribute something for our Christ
mas tree. Money will be the most
acceptable and more easily sent.
Any amount from twenty-five cents
up will be received and appreciated.
Remember we have no appropria-
ton at all this year, not a cent.
But our children must not suffer on
this account. Old Santa Claus must
come; they must have their usual
Christmas tree and the occasion
must be made a joyous one for
them. Join in with Us and we will
make the Christmas holidays here
a great success in every way, not
withstanding our lack of an appro-
priation.'

Jealous Husband Killed.

Frank Griffith, brakeman, was
shot and killed at a boarding house
in North Little Rock by Jesse
Clark, another railroad man. The
boarding house is run by Mrs.
Griffith, and the killing was due to
jealousy ON the part of Griffith.
Clark, it seems, had on several oc-
casions assisted the Iandlady, who
did most of her own work, and sew
eral days before the tragedy the two
men had a fight. Griffith then got
on a spree, and when he came into
the dining room about 8 o'clock at
night, and seeing Clark and his
wife seated at table, struck the
latter a singing blow in the face.
He then struck Clark and they
closed in a desperate struggle. Clark
managed to reach his pistol and
shot Griffith through the left lung,
the man dying in a few minutes.
