Deserted Babe to Die.

An infant boy probably about
two months old, was found near the
Confederate park north Of Newport.
The baby's heels were bleeding
where he had been kicking the
ground all the previous night and
the little fellows face was a mass
of bumps where he had been bitten
by mosquitoes. There are no elews
TO the identity of the parents, who
doubtless left the infant there to
die, as the place was one-quarter of
a mile from the public road and
was only happened on BY a negro
boy out squirrel hunting.

AlIege Assessment Is Excessive.

An interesting legal controversy
will likely follow as a result of the
Kansas City and Memphis Bridge
Company's refusal to pay taxes on
the Memphis bridge assessed by the
board of appraisers of Crittenden
county. The west half of the bridge
was assessed at $13,294.5o. The
company refuses to pay the taxes,
alleging the assessment to be ex-
cessiye, and an injunction has been
granted restraining the collector
from selling the property, as pro-
vided under the law.

Arkansas State News
Thieves Steal valuable Pictures.

Since the opening of the Arkan-
sas building at the worlds fair for
the third time a report has been
made of the theft of exhibits in the
building. Only a short time ago
the theft of a valuable vase from the
Arkansas building was reported,
and now one of the pictures on
exhibition has been stolen. The
missing picture is water color of
a woman's head, which was screwed
to the wall on the second floor of
the building. Miss Cage, hostess of
the Arkansas building, reported the
theft, and declared that this is the
third picture which has been taken,
and that if the thefts continue the
commissioners will be forced to
send the other pictures back to the
owners.

Sensational killing.

Herbert Wynn, who was shot by
Mrs. Ed Moss, six miles west of
Prescott, died after lingering for
three days. The killing, it is al
legged, grew out of an old love affair,
the two principals having been
sweethearts for a number of years.
On the afternoon of the shooting
Mrs. Moss went to the field where
Wynn was working and after a con-
versation lasting an hour or more
turned to leave, when she called
back to him and as he approached
the fence she pulled Al pistol and
shot him in the abdomen. Six
shots were fired, two of which in the
scuf1ie struck the woman, one in the
thigh, the other in the hand. The
principals are leading citizens OF
Bradley county. Mrs. Moss has only
been married short time.

Twenty Men Poisoned.

Ptomaine poison caused the
death of Harry A. Rhea of Little
Rock, and nineteen others were
made seriously i'll by using milk
that had been contaminated. All
the parties boarded at the same
house and became i'll shortly after
eating breakfast, oatmeal and milk
being part of the menu. Attend
ing physicians made an investiga-
ton and found that the milk con-
sumed had become contaminated
from the vessel in which it was
kept over night. Several other
boarders at the same place who did
not partake of the milk, but ate of
other foods, were not affected.

Serious Wreck Prevented.

An Iron Mountain switch engine
and an incoming freight colhded
at point one mile south of the
union depot in Little Rock, and a
few minutes thereafter the engine,
which had been reversed and de-
serted just before colliding with
the freight, dashed into a string of
empty coaches on a side track. The
force of the first collision derailed
several cars and considerably dam
aged the freight engine, but as the
switch engine was backing out only
the tender was derailed. In its
run toward the city the switch en-
CINE broke loose from the tender.
4 switchman saw the runaway in
time to switch it onto side track
and probably prevented a more Sc
rious wreck, as a train filled with
passengers was standing on the
main line in front of the depot,
about a hundred yards away.

Mangled BY Circular Saw.

A peculiar and fatal accident oc-
Cured at saw mill in Garland
county. George Burrough was re-
pairing some defect in the machln-
cry that carries the logs to the big
circular saw. Burrough was sitting
upon a log that was being fed to the
saw, and it is thought that he was
so engaged with his work that he
did not notice that he was being
carried into the saw until the teeth
entered his flesh. He was horribly
cut about the abdomen, and one leg
was completely sawed off.

field, Benton county, is under ar

lowing, continuing shooting. At
the third shot the woman fell and
Brown rushed up to where she lay

Worst Flood in Many Years.

Old river men and planters who
have seen many floods on the Ar
kansas river declare that the pres
ent one is the most disastrous that
has occurred since the famous flood
of 1911. This is partly due, it is
said, to the lateness of the season,
which prevents the rcplanting of the
cotton, but leaving this out of con-
sideration it is claimed that the
flood is as disastrous as any that has
ever occurred.
