A LITTLE BIRD.

A little bird in tree
Made one--a man and maiden three.
Twas not by chance that they nett
None see, they said one can forget
A little bird.
A long hot road, . strip OF grass,
'rwould tempt the Fates to let il pass !
Two people linger in the walk;
There's only ono TO hear them talk,
A little bird.
Long shadows stretched across the sky
Two people parted with sigh.
But there was no one there TO seei
How do know and who told me-
A little bird.

THIS WEEK AND
THE CARNIVAL.

This week has been pleasant social.
ly, but not unduiy gay. In fact the
merry month OF May" has been TAX.
ing things quietly--and coolly, to say
the least. The entertaining has rather
seemed to emphasize the transition
period, the passing OF the formal into
the more informal. Both the outdoor
and the indoor affairs have been in
evidence. The summer girl mas peep
cd forth with her tennis and her fetch
ing air. and the stately club girl has
been "at home" in very charming
way. The weather has been cool
enough 70 admit OF both.
But next week will be unlike all
others; In fact, II Is carnival week,
and distinct law unto itself. Society
will make little attempt at any for.
NAL entertaining beyond the carnival
. ball, and the stately ceremonial of a
coronation will be lacking, as there is
no queen this year. but there will be
plenty Of pleasure and the spirit of
fun will be abroad in the city. Many
are expecting guests, which will add
to the joyousness of the occasion, and
there will be jolly carnival parties
galore. These will constitute society's
chief pleasure during the carnival.
The spirit Of ipformality will pervade
everything, and even contemplated
banquets will be nothing more formid.
able than Dutch lunch 4"

NO ONE OFFERED LOAN.

It will be remembered that Jeff Davis has asserted on the stump sew eral times during this campaign that he had been offered the loan of the money necessary to run the deaf mute institute for the next two years. But now he has John Page, his man "Fri- day." appealing to the merchants of Little Rock to sell the institution goods on credit for that length of time. So the assertion by Davis of having money offered him is only an- other one of his lies. And yet such a character has contingent of ad- mirers in the state, be it said to their everlasting shame and disgrace. Ma rianna Courier.

EXTENSION OF TIME
 GRANTED PROPOSED ROAD.

The state board of railroad incorpo- .rators, which is composed of the gov ernor, Secretary of State Crockett and Auditor Monroe, held brief ses- sion Tuesday, though the governor was not present.
 The meeting was called for the pur- pose of considering the request of the Jonesboro, Newport & Western Rail- road for an extension of time in which to build and complete tenth of it's prospected line. The board decided, after going over the matter, that it was to the best interest of all con- cerned that the extension be granted and granted it. The time for com pleting the track referred to is fixed at March 13, 1905.

DEAF MUTE.sCHOOL
 ASSURED EXPENSES

Secretary John H. Page of the state board of charities declares that suffi- cient encouragement has been forth coming to guarantee the opening of the deaf mute institute as usual in Oc- tober. He bases the statement on the responses he has received from the Little Rock merchants to whom he addressed circular letter inquiring whether they will sell supplies for the institute on credit, with six per cent interest, until provision is made by the next legislature for payment.
 Secretary Page also declares that there will be no trouble about borrow ing money enough to pay the salaries of the teachers and other employees of the deaf mute institute. He estimates that $25, ,000 will be adequate for the purpose and expresses the belief that the money can be borrowed without interest.
 When the state board of charities conyenes in Little Rock next Monday the arrangements for opening the in stitute in October will be discussed and such action as becomes necessary will probably be taken.

WILL DAVIS THROW
 HIS SUPPORT TO M'RAE

A rumor is af1oat to the effect that Gov. Davis will withdraw from the race for the Democratic nomination for governor and throw his support to former Congressman Thomas o. Me- Rae of Prescott, says the Little Rock Gazette. While the rumor can not be traced to any authoritative source, it is persistent and is being discussed with considerable interest in political circles.
 Those friends of the governor who express any opinion at all on the sub ject say they do not credit the rumor of the governors withdrawal in favor of McRae. As the matter now stands the rumor will not down until settled one way or the other by statements from MT. McRae or Gov. Davis.

RAILROAD RUMBLINGs.

The St. l.. S N A. railroad from Gilbert to Leslie still keeps up it's old way, that of crookedness, having if possible more curves than the line from Gilbert to Eureka. However, in spite of this fact there is between Marshall and Leslie in the fertile Wy lies cove stretch of track of two miles or more without the slightest curve. We believe this is the longest bit of straight track on the road. Les lie will be the terminus for the pres- ent. All the work is done but that of surfacing and leveling-the finishing touches. Camps are about all broken up and horses and mules are on pas- ture for rest and recuperation. Har- rison Times.
 Two railroad workers named Rat cliff and Evans were badly bruised by an explosion at Addick's camp near Keener Tuesday. They had put i'll three large blasts to be fired simulta- neously, but one charge failed to fire with the others, having become sepa- rated in a crevice. When the men ran to the spot after the explosion they were just in time to catch the force of another, which sent them 20 feet into the air. Although both were bruised, their injuries were not very serious.-H Harrison Times.
