presented to the memorial by Mrs.

the late Thomas Mast entitled THE

OF picture painted by the celebrated
American cartoonist for Sir Henry
Irving. who presented It to the insli-
tute founded by William Winter ON
Ststen Island The artist, feeling that
in this picture he had put his best
work, made a replica for himself.
After Thomas Nast's death, his
widow, in pursuance Of her husbands
wishes. gave the replica to the gov
ernors OF the Shakespeare memorial,
Stratford-on-Avon, and It now adorns
the entrance TO the theater there. The
scene represents the room In which
Shakespeare was born. The "Immor-
tai Light Of Genius" emanates like a
nimbus from the head of bust OF
Shakespeare 10 which the shades OF
Comedy and Tragedy offer wreaths Of
laurel

THE DAVIS MEN
 AND THE NEGOEES.

Do Gov. Davis followers in- tend to rest their faith in the ne- groes in the coming primary?
 At the meteing of the Pulaski county Democratic central com mittee on Tuesday, resolutions were offered to govern the pri- mary, and it was provided that only known white Democrats" should be allowed to participate. Dr. J. M. Young, who is the phy- sician for the deaf-mute insti- ute, and thus an employe of the state board of charitable institu- tions, all the members of which are Davis men, moved to strike out the word white" where it appeared before the word Democrats, :" thus throwing open the primary to negroes, but there was no second to his motion
 At the recent meeting of the Democratic central committee of Jackson county at Newport John H. Keel, one of Gov. Davis chief lieutenants, succeeded in having the primary opened to negro voters.
 This action of the Davis men is all the more surprising in view of the fact that Gov. Davis has made an issue in the present campaign the action of Judge Wood in appointing one negro jury commissioner in three when he was on the circuit bench seventeen years ago.

FATHER OF GIRL
 MAKES AFFIDAVIT.
Did Not Make Affidavit Fxoner ating Davis for Pardon of
 Ponp Brown.

Conway, Feb. IF. The Carroll D. Wood club of this place held its second meeting at the court house last night, several hundred people being present. Hon. A.. F. Vandeventer of Morrilton ad- dressed the club and his speech was one of the best ever heard here. It was along the lines of the speeches made by him in the present campaign before with drawing from the race for gov ernor, and was a severe arraign- ment of Gov. Davis and his rec ord as governor.
 The most sensational feature of the meeting was the reading by MT. Vandeventer of an afi- davit of c. H. Mccullough, dated February Is, 1904, relative to the Pomp Brown pardon case. c. H. Mccullough is the father of the girl assaulted by Pomp Brown. In this affidavit MT. Mccullough denies making the affidavit which has been eircu- lated throughout the state by Gov. Davis and his friends stat ing that Mccullough did not blame the governor for his action in the pardon of Pomp Brown, and that he is an ardent sup porter of Gov. Davis and that he is going to vote for him.
 The membership of the club is now about 300.

CRUSHED BY CARS.

John Herring, an Iron Noun tain brakeman, fell between the cars of a freight train Wednes- day morning at Hope, says the Gazette, and received injuries from which he died three hours later. The unfortunate man re- ceived horrible injuries and had it not been for his wonderful vitality would have been killed instantly.
 It seems that Herring started to cross between two cars just as the train started, and at that moment the engine gave a heavy jerk, throwing Herring under meath the wheels. His left leg was completely severed at the hip, and his right leg was cut off at the knee. His right hand was also mangled. As soon as dis covered, the injured man was picked up and later on put on passenger train No. 4, which brought him to Little Rock, but he died before reaching this city.
