EIGHTH WARp LEAGuE.
TALK OF CARLISLE GAME
MINNESOTA is DICKERING FOR A
GAME WITH THE INDIANS IN
MINNEAPOLIS THIS FALL.

There is talk at the university of
securing Carlisle university for a foot.
ball game on Northrop field next fall.
Negotiations have been under way, and
it was thought at one time that'a game
would be arranged for Oct. Is. Later
Carlisle found it impossible to come on
that date, and Ames was given the
game. There is now talk Of securing
the Indians for Oct. 8 or Oct. 1, but it
is doubtful whether the contest can
be arranged, as Minnesotass schudele
is already quite heavy, including three
hard games with Nebraska, wisconsin
and Northwestern, between Oct. 20 and
Nov. 10. A game with Carlisle before
Oct. 1 5 would give the coaches a very
arduous task in getting the team on
edge so early, and would make the
schedule top-heavy.
A dual track meet between MINES
sofa, and Iowa universities has been
arranged for May IA at Northrop field.
The two teams met in 1901 and 1902,
Minnesota winning easily both times
Considerable interest is manifested
in the indoor meet to be held at the
univerity Saturday. March -. The
twin city and saltwater high schools,
as we'll as Shattuck academy, will take
part.
The university board Of athletic con-
troll yesterday ratified the contract
with Charles Ferguson as baseball
coach. "A meeting Of all baseball can
didates was called for 5 m. to-day
at the university. At this time Fer
guson was to meet the squad and OUT
line plans for the season.
The contract with James Temple as
! track team coach and trainer was
ratified also. Temple is now at West
Point, and is expected to take charge
| Of the track men about April /.
Minnesota and, Wisconsin will not
meet in baseball this spring, as the
I two managements have been unable to
agree upon terms and dates.

The next subject, the import ance of Arkansas history, was discussed from both sides. Miss Cora Kimberlin did not empha- size the importance of studying the history of our state, while MT. Walter Wade very ably proved the untold importance of the history of Arkansas. This question was enlarged upon by talks from MT. Shaver and Prof. Hopkins.
 After dinner instead of follow ing the program laid down, the last subject, Lighting and Ven tilation of School Buildings, was taken up, and excellent papers on this topic were read by Miss Bush and Mrs. Whitaker.
 The questions, how to improve our schools, our teachers and our community, were discussed fully, and great benefit derived from the discussions. Final adjourn ment was taken upon conclusion of these exercises.

 AT POCAHONTAS.
Bratton Said Committee Told Him Not to Meet Democrat
 in Joint Debate.

Pocahontas, Aug. 19. Last night Hon. U. s. Braston of Lit tie Rock and Hon. H. L. Ponder of Walnut Ridge addressed a meeting of Republicans and Democrats of Randolph county at the court house at this place.
 MT. Bratton was billed by the Republican state central commit tee to make this address, and Mir. Ponder was invited by the local committee to be present and meet Mir. Bratton in joint dis cussion.
 On MT. Ponder's arrival MT. Bratton declined to participate in a joint discussion, insisting that it was his appointment and that his committee had instructed him not to enter into any joint discussions with members of the opposing party.
 Mir. Bratton opened his address at 8 o'clock in the morning and talked continuously until II o'clock. His audience was com posed of about 400 people, the ratio being about twenty Demo- crats to one Republican. He was accorded the most respectful at tention during his entire three hours address.
 At the conclusion of MT. Brat tons address MT. Ponder was introduced and was received with deafening applause. MT. Pon- der's address of about an hour was enthusiastically received. It was an impressive, eloquent plea for party harmony.
 The Repu blicans never had a chance to accomplish much in Randolph. but whatever hopes the Republicans may have cher ished were snuffed out by MT. Ponder's address.

 Dear Governor have just re- turned home this morning and this is my first opportunity to thank you for the proxy to notify Judge Parker. It was one of the finest trips have ever had, and the members of the committee and the accompanying people were the very flower of the national Democracy.
 'I found Judge Parker one of the most magnetic men l have ever met and his manners im- pressed me more than anything else that he is a man of great force of character and is, in fact, one of the big men of the age.
 "If all the people could have seen him as I saw him, l am sure the Republicans would not have corporal's guard left. I am convinced he is a winner.
 "I send you by this mail one of the souvenirs presented to the notification committee by the New York committee, who treated us royalty.
 "I want you also to know that l sampled the Virginia ham many times and found it the next best thing to the hams they make from our old familiar friend the razor back The cigars and champagne were of the best brands and I had the pleasure of drinking several healths to the strong and sturdy Democracy of the East.
