Lightle has no knowledge of the fact that her husband was alive until the receipt of the letter pur- porting to have been written by him was received, a month ago. Previous to that time all of the insurance upon Dr. Lightle's life had been paid, with the excep- tion of the 5000 in the A. o. U. w. She then made up her mind not to collect the remaining in- surance, pending furthur devel- opments.

WORKMEN CLEARING
 RIGHT-OF-WAY.

Little Rock, Aug. 19. -Engi- neer G. w. Dalgam of the St. Louis, Little Rock & Gulf rail- road came into the city yester- day with his party from Higgins, after having finished the survey for the proposed road from Sheri- dan to Higgins Tuesday. Six miles of the right-of-way between these two points, MT. Dalgam says, has already been cleared. The contract for the remaining distance, he states, has been let, work on which will be begun within a week.
 The surveying party now here will be sent to Sheridan next week and the line surveyed to the gulf. The contract for clearing the right-of-way and grading the roadbed was let to T. M. Dodson & Son of Hot Springs, who are just completing the grading of a road from Eel senthal to Monroe, La., and will send the teams and necessary machinery from that point to Higgins within the next few days.

Cashier Hemingway Defendant in a Five Thousand Dol

Little Rock, Aug. 19. Suit for $5,O00 damages against w. L. Hemingway, assistant cashier of the Exchange National bank, was brought in the Pulaski court yes terday afternoon by Louis Lorch, formerly general agent of the Washington Life Insurance Con- pany in Little Rock.
 The suit grows out of a diff culty between the plaintiff and the defendant on the 18th of Ju- ly, when it is alleged that Lorch was assaulted by Hemingway. An account of the trouble be- tween the two men was given in the Gazette at the time. Lorch alleges that on the day mention ed he went into the Exchange National bank to talk with MT. Rather, and that while in the bank he was "wilfully, wanton- ly and maliciously," assaulted by the defendant, and that from the effects he has suffered great physical pain and mental anguish aJ ,~,,:1,o4.o,, ,,

BOIL WEEVIL
 REACHES ARKANSAS.
Has Appeared in Hampstead and Little River Counties Say
 Good Cotton Authorities.

Little Rock, Aug. 19. The genuine boil weevil has at last made it's appearance in Arkan- sas. Insects have been found in Hampstead and Little River counties within the past few days which expert cotton men who have had experience with the Texas weevil declare to be the genuine boil weevil.
 State Senator T. c. lobe of Hope, Hampstead county, was in Little Rock las night and brought a boil weevil from cot ton plant on the farm of Allen Ellis, five miles east of Hope, on which are two of the insects which are believed to be boil weevils.
 Senator lobe stated that there is apparently no question but that they are the genuine weevils, as a number of men who have seen the Texas weevils are positive that these are of the same va riety.
 The Weevils have been found so far only in the eastern and northeastern portions of Hemp stead county and near Ogden on Red river in Little River county. The residents of these counties are excited over the appearance of the insects, as both are large cotton growing counties. The injury to the cotton in those counties this year will not be se- rious, but it is believed there is danger of a further spread of the weeyil next year.
 Insects have been discovered at various times in Arkansas, which it was thought were the dreaded boil weevils, but in each case it has been found that the fears were without foundation. About a year ago it was reported that the genuine boil weevil had been discovered in Woodruff county. An examination proved that this was mistake and at various times the same reports have been sent out, and they have always proved erroneous.
 In this case, however, it is be- lieved that there is no doubt of the identity of the insects which are at work on the cotton in Hampstead and Little River counties.

SEARCY AROUSED
 OVER 1fiHTLE FRAUDS.
Want Proof That Lightle is Alive Before Taking Action-May Demand Resignation of John Roberts From Dem-
 ocratic Ticket.

Searcy, Aug. lS.-Ihe people of Searcy are thoroughly aroused over the attempt of Dr. Lightle to defraud the insurance compa- nies, but demand that it be shown positively that Lightle is alive before any formal action will be taken.
 The names of two well known men are mentioned in connection with the case, but the authori- ties have taken no action and it is understood will not until Dr. Lightle is apprehended or some definite information has been ob- tained as to his whereabouts.
 The distinct sensation here to- day was the statement of J. V. Roberts published this morning in the Gazette, attempting to eX- culpate Dr. Lightle and stating that he had personal knowledge of a letter from the supposed dead man over a month ago.
 Roberts was expected to re- turn to Searcy today, but he did not come. He is said to be at Wynne. Roberts is the Demo- cratic nominee for the legislature, but there has been considerable talk since the developments in the Lightle case of holding a mass meeting to ask him to withdraw.
 Sheriff J. P. Wood left Searcy Tuesday for an unknown destina- -tion, but his departure was kept a secret and has just leaked out. He is thought to have requisition papers for Lightle.
 If the insurance companies are willing to dismiss the prosecution since the moneys have been re- turned future developments in the case depend largely upon the action of Mrs. Pitts, whose hus- bands grave was robbed to fur nish Lightle a dummy. The widow Pitts is poor and can take no action herself, but she is de- sirous that the authorities push the prosecution.
 Mrs. Pitts still visits the emp ty gr we of her husband. Its not the same as when l knew, or thought knew, he was there" ," she says, but she does not visit the Lightle lot, although she feels certain that her husbands body is there.
 JOHN ROBERTS STATEMENT.
 John V. Roberts, ex-mayor of Searcy and the Democratic nom- inee for representative, while in Little Rock, gave out the follow ing statement on the case in an interview with the Gazette:
 "I do not believe that Dr. Lightle is dead," he said, but at the same time do not believe that he is criminal. do not believe that he intended to de- fraud the insurance companies, but that his disappearance was the result of a sudden notion. l am inclined to think that Dr. Lightle had secured a body from some source for the purpose of dissection, and that he suddenly made up his mind to leave home and thought it would be a good idea to set fire to his barn and burn up the body to give the i'm pression that he had been burned in the fire. As to whose body it was, am, of course ignorant. He might have, as is frequently the case, paid a negro couple of dollars to secure him a body for dissection, and then when he made up his mind to disappear, the rest of the arrangements could have been carried on by himself, without assistance.
 "I am confident that Mrs.

4 SERIOUS CEARGE.
NIr. Mixson Declares Reports from
His Gin ARE Incorrect.

MIR. Mixson Declares Reports from
His Gin ARE Incorrect.
Mr.. R. N. MixsoD, Of Wiiliston,
who recently published in the Angus
ia Chronicle an art. Gle charging mac.
curacies in the cotton statistics CT the
census department., on which an esti.
mate Of the years crop was based,
now declares that this department. in
Washington has an alleged report from
his gin at Williston that was not sent
by him or representative.
The Chronicle says the charge is
based on copies OF the report furnish
ed Mr.. MiXSon by the Census depart
nent in Washington, during q recent
correspondence. lfr. Mixson and the
superintendent Of his gin repudiate
this alleged report and declare that If
any such documents are held in Wash
;neton they are without bis sanction.
Mr.. Mixson was in the city a short
while Thursday. When seen by a
Chronicle reporter be confirmed the
charges. He explained that since his
charge that the report OF the Census
department. giving the south a l2.-
10000 was based on inaccurate Stats
tics, due to an error on the part OF
the government departments in stuff
ing their reports with an extra week s
ginning, that he has been In cores
pon6ence with the department. at
Washington. The department has
been eIdeavorirg to show him that he
is in error in his deductions, that the
estimate was based on reports from
the gins Of the south, and not from
figures obtaired in the agricultural
department.
Among the papers forwarded was a
copy Of an alleged report from Mr..
Mixson's gin, purporting to have been
signed by his superintendent at VII
liston. Mr.. Mixsoa declares that this
alleged report from. his gin was never
sent out signed by ais superintendent.
He charges that the report is false,
both as to the statistics contained and
the statement that it was sent out
from his gin. Mr.. Mixson says that
neither he nor bis periDtendent sent
in or signed such report and that if
there is any such original paper it was
sent by someone he doesn't know.
The charge Is OF a sensational na-
ture and is sure to attract general at
tentior. Mr.. MiXson makes no at
tempt to place the responsibility for
the alleged figures. he contends,
however, that it certainly proves, be-
yond the shadow Of a doubt that the
Census departments estimate Of the
crop IS worthless, injuring the south
to the extent OF millions OF dollars.

c., says: Evidence has been discover
ed tending to show that the reservoir
disaster by which nine people lost
their lives here or November 2, was
caused by dynamite lsed by parties
unknown. 1t is stated that dyna-
mite cartridge was found a few days
after tie bursting OF the reservoir
near the broken walls, and that it is
now in The pcssession Of city cf5cial.
An investigation has been proceeding
for some time, but its results have
not h,en made public.
