AFTERNOON TEA.

One of the prettiest at-home affairs was on Friday afternoon from 3 to 5 when Mrs. R. T.. Robertson entertained a party of friends in honor of Miss Marga- yet Beattie with an informal eternoon tea. Mrs. Robertson 4.s a hostess is possessed with those traits of intellect and char acter which make those thrown in her presence feel perfectly at home and free from formality, and this little afternoon tea was pretty compliment to the, young guest of honor.
 Tea was made during the aft ernoon and served with a dainty lunch. The guest list included Mesdames o. D. Watson and Owen Walker, Misses Lula Wolf, Hester and Josephine Phillips, Mabel Stayton, Lou Minor, Ray and Lucy Brandenburg.

FOREST FIRES
 RAGE IN LAWRENCE.
Damage Estimates Run into the Thousands-Fences, Stock
 and Crops Burned

Hoxie, Nov. IS. In this vicin- ity it has rained only one light shower since July. The dust in the streets is shoe-top deep. On top of this the woods for many miles are on fire and the smoke is so dense that the sun looks like a red-hot ball of fire. To make the situation worse a breeze has been blowing, mingling dust and smoke together so thick that it is almost suffocating. Unless it rains shortly many fatalities are expected. Thousands of dol lars of damage has been suffered by farmers in the way of losses of fences, stock and standing crops.

STATE BAPTISTS
 IN CONVENTION.
Ex-Governor Eagle Declines to Take Gavel Honors Again. Closed Address With
 Tears in His Eyes.

Pine Bluff, Nov. IS. The Seth annual session of the Arkansas State Convention opened this morning in the auditorium of the First Baptist church in this city, with one of the largest assem- blages in the history of the or ganization.
 The convention was called to order at 10 o'clock by the presi- dent, ex-Gov. James P. Eagle of Little Rock, and after prayer the roll-call of delegates was called by Rev. w. F. Doris, the Sec retary of the convention. Over 500 messengers have arrived, and many more are expected on to- days trains. This is the largest attendance ever had at a con- vention of Baptist convention in Arkansas. After roll-call the convention proceeded with per- manent organization by the election of officers.
 Before nominations were heard for president of the convention ex-Gov. Eagle positively an- nounced that under no circum- stances would he accept the of- flee another time. He had first been elected president of the convention twenty-four years ago. He loved the Baptist cause and would always attend tue conventions until failing health prevented. He thanked the convention for the many honors conferred upon him, and wished the work success throughout the ages. There were tears in Gov. Eagles eyes as he finished his remarks and laid aside the gavel that he had wielded so long and so we'll.
 The officers elected were: John Ayers of Fort Smith, president; J. w. Conger of Philadelphia and H. c. Fox, Pine Bluff, first and second vice presidents; w. F. Doris of Camden, secretary; E. J. A. Mckinney of England, assistant and statistical secretary; J. H. Kitchens of Paragould, treasurer, and w. w. Byrd of Pine Bluff, auditor.

HARRY PERSON
 LOSES BOTH AIMBS.
Little Fellow Badly Injured in Newport Yards While Try
 ing to Hop a Freight.

Little Harry Pierson. the only son of MT. and Mrs. E. V. Pier son, lies in critical condition in the office of Dr. l.. E. Willis as the result of an attempt to hop a freight train on the main line of the Iron Mountain.
 With several other boys he was indallging in this dangerous pastime, when his legs slipped beneath the wheels and were crushed just below the knee. One hip bone was also badly disloeated and other bruises were sustained on the shoulder and head.
 Little Harry is only about five years of age and it is feared the shock and injuries may prove fatal. Both limbs were ampu- tated.
 Mir. Pierson represents Hous- ton & Curtis in this territory and the public generally is interested in the unfortunate lad and hope his condition may mend.

"Chronic cases" that's
