SAFE BLOWERS STIR
 COTTON PLANT PEOPLE.

The little town of Cotton Plant is quite aroused over several burglaries committed there Wednesday night, which showed bold work upon the part of the desperadoes but little sue cess in securing booty.
 The store of Dr. R. R. James was entered and the safe blown open, which contained however but six dollars. The postoff1ce was also brok- en into as was the Choctaw depot, where all the express packages were rifed, but it is not thought that any thing of much value was found.
 The crooks seemed to have accom- plished their work without disturbing the town and after cutting the tele- graph wires both north and south, made their escape on a hand car, going towards Brinkley.
 The store of R. R. James was rob- bed just about year ago, when safe was ruined and now the little town undergoes a second visit from such criminals.
 Messrs. J. w. Grubbs and A. c. Anderson spent Wednesday night there, but were allowed to continue on their way next morning without being held for examination.

Jonesboro, April 1.-Minnie Kellum, the white woman who was arrested at Big Bay for raising one-dollar bill to represent ten, having pasted a cipher cut from Confederate bill next to the figure "1" on the dollar bill and passed it on Merchant Ritter man at Big Bay. The woman claims she got the bill from man and did not know it was raised.
 The woman is young and handsome. She came to Big Bay from Kentucky about year ago. The proof of her guilt seems conclusive.
 She was sent today to Helena to be tried in federal court.
 The woman has an unsavory repu- tation.

HOUSE ACCEPTS
 HOT SPRINGS INVITATION.
Long Discussion Over Constitutional Amendment To Exempt New Fac tories From Taxation-Keel Bill Made Special Order
 For Thursday.

Little Rock, April 2.-The house yesterday accepted an invitation to visit Hot Springs on Saturday, April il. The invitation was extended by Representative Can't on behalf of the city of Hot Springs.
 MT. Keel asked that house bill No. 472 exempting Newport from the pro- visions of the three mile local option law, be made special order for Thursday morning.
 MT. Clement objected, owing to the absence of Chairman Atkins of the temperance committee and the fact that those citizens of Newport who opposed the bill desired further time in which to have hearing.
 A motion to make the bill special order as requested by MT. Keel pre- vailed.
 The house reconsidered and reject ed an amendment to the lunatic asly- um appropriation bill prohibiting the board of trustees from employing relatives. An nti-nepotism amend ment was also stricken from the Con- federate Home appropriation bill. A prolonged discussion occurred in committee of the whole over a prop osition to appropriate $400 per annum for the service of chaplain at the home. The amendment was voted down and the committee voted in fa- vor of continuing the present plan of the penitentiary chaplain devoting a portion of his time to the Confederate Home.
 The house passed bill by MT. Flu trell to regulate primary elections in the First senatorial district and the Gantt bill increasing the salary of the county and probate judge of Garland county to $2,000 DOT annum.
 The house engaged in an interesting debate over Representative Gamma way's joint resolution proposing an amendment to the constitution so as to exempt from taxation for period Of seven years capital invested with in the next twenty five years in cot ton and woolen mills. The measure was finally placed back on it's second reading for amendment. The senate defeated Senator Me Ferrin's bill regulating expenses in criminal cases.
 Senator Adams bill requiring sa- looms and gambling houses to close at " p. m. was made special order for next Wednesday morning.
 Senator Price's worlds fair appro- priation bill was also made a special order for next Wednesday morning
 The house passed the Jacobs bill foI the better regulation of practice in courts of record.
