NO LOVE LOST HERE

There is love. sweet and tender
UniU. between Senators Tucker and
Palmer. Of King county. It's that
same brand OF good fellowship that
two tom-cats facing each other on
a back fence on a dark. dark night
have.
The sudden illness Of Senator
Van do Vanter gave Tucker long
coveted chance TO show the whole
senate his brotherly love for his
colleague. Van de Nantcr's seat is
az the rear OF the senate chamber
TO the left OF the center aisle.
fuckers seat is next 10 Palmcr'A
In the front row next to the speak
ers desk. No sooner had Van de
Vanter been taken IN than Tucker
laid plans TO take Vans seat, at
least during tho latter's illness.
Tucker went 10 Lieutenant Govern
or Coon and asked il he might
make the change,
Yes. Informally replied Coon,
abut In no other way Coon init
mated that IL was rather disrespect-
full 10 a sick man 10 grab his seat
as soon as Il had been vacated.
But Tucker didn't mind that lie
gathered up his stationery, his ink
bottles and waste basket and took
possession OF Vans sea. much to
the amusement Of the senator's.

FIRE AT PINE BLUFF
Caused By Candles Burning on Christ
 mas Tree.

Pine Bluff, Dec. 26. A fire broke out in the palatial home of Mrs. M. E. Smart Christmas morning about 8:30 o'clock. Be- fore the department could reach it the entire top of the large house was in flames, which were quenched, but the upper part of the building was entirely ruined. The cause of the fire was the burning out of candles on a Christmas tree. After denuding the tree of the presents, the children left it, and the candles burned out, set the tree on fire, and then the ceiling was ignited and hence the confagration. Loss about S2,000, fully insured.

Pulling For New Road.

At a recent meeting of stock holders of the Rogers South western railroad and members of the Board of Trade of Rogers, the report of the progress al- reauy made was most encourag- ing. Springtown reports one mile of grade ready for the ties. The citizens of Springtown and vicinity are contributing $30, ,000 to the road in cash, right of way and labor. A number of farmers who contributed literally to the bonus are working the amount out on the grade, very satisfac- tory way to the committee. With a few exceptions, the right of way has been secured from Rogers to Springtown. Letters

Married in Pine Bluff.

Pine Bluff, Dec. 26. MT. John N. Lewis, of Newport, and Mis- Ethel Durham, of Pine Bluff, were married at the home of Mir. and Mrs. J. H. Carmical at 1400 w. Eighteenth avenue Sunday night by Rev. Ross Moore, pas tor of the First Baptist church.
 The bride is one of Pine Bluffs s most charming young society ladies, and the groom is court stenographer for the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern rail- way company at Newport.
 This wedding will be quite a surprise to the many friends as well as relatives of both parties. as no one knew anything of it.
 The bride and groom left the city on a late train for Newport, which will be their future home.

Calendars and Souvenirs.

The Independent is lately in receipt of so many pretty calen- ders and souvenirs that individ- ual mention can hardly be ac- corded each, but space must be accorded the most noteworthy.
 First of all is the Souvenir Art Edition of the Forrest City Times, containing 136 pages of home matter and half tones. It tells in admirable style the hls- tory and resources of Arkansas, St. Francis county and Forrest City. It is a gem in typography and most creditable production in literary style. It should be of immense help in telling the old story of what we are to the people of other states, and Land- voigt & Vadakin, the publishers, have our congratulations upon it's success.
