Minstrel Makes fit.

The fact that Donnelly & Hat field have the backing of Al G.. Field, the minstrel king, was a guarantee to the amusement lov- ing public of something good and even with a circus in opposition, a big house was there to greet them Saturday evening.
 From the usual opening min strel scene, but with unusually handsome stage settings until the wind-up of the performance in the "darktown Circus," every thing was great and made up the best minstrel seen here for sev- eral years.
 Three were many good jokes and they were nicely cracked by the talent in the com pany, who have in past years been the life and fun of Al G. Fields Minstrels.

Dora Thorne.

Dora Thorne," which will be seen at the opera house Wednes- day, November 22, is a dramata- zation of Bertha M. Clay's fa- mcus novel. Messrs Rowland and Clifford have given it a mag nifcent production.
 In speaking of it one critic says: Dora Thorne' is a lit- erary composition so unstudied and so faultlessly arranged, that it's success is not dependent upon melodramatic climaxes and sit uations. It stands in contrast to the average melodrama like the inspiring freshness and coolness of an Autumn morning compar- ed with the sultry and tempest uous summer heat.

DAVIS AND ROGERS
Come together on Stump at Fayette- vile But no Political Cas-
 ualties Occur.

Fayetteville, Nov. IS. Gov. Davis and Attorney-General Rog- CTS spoke to a large audience here today.
 Gen. Rogers briefly reviewed his political record and declared equalization of taxes to be the issue before the people. He scored Gov. Davis for his part in the railroad compromise, calling it violation of legal and mor- al law
 Gov. Davis spoke for two hours. He discussed the record of both Rogers and Senator Der ry without any Ieniency. He sad he was the best governor the State had ever had and that it was due to his efforts that an appropriation was secured wh oh kept the recent yellow fever ep- idemic out of the State. The States prosperity was due to his governorship he said, and he advised farmers to organize. He discussed the antitrust law and said he had a pardon on ice" for every union labor man convicted under it.

WHITE RIVER COUNTRY BEAUTY AND
 RICHNESS.
Continued from First Page.l

\ oAid CliJOy Nt IClOuI IAlC ICIi CSAl- l ing breezes of the uplands and
 the incomparable view of wind l ing stream and distant forest l clad hills.
 Il At first one would suppose that l the elaborate construction and
 the marvellous engineering dis played in the establishment of
 this new highway of traffic were designed solely for the benefit of the tourist, in view of the mani
 fold scenic attractions. For
 those, however, who have mind
 to strict values as measured in
 commodities, the White river
 country offers, in addition to
 agricultural resources. fabulous possibilities in the way of min
 eral resources of various kinds,
 with forests of oak, pine, walnut, cypress and cedar on her thous- and hills.
 There are some thriving towns along it's borders, but almost it's
 entire length flows through forest primeval. The vegetation is luxuriant, the soil in some places being incomparable for
 richness and fertility. A club house here and there along or near the shores, show the haunts of men who love to angle for the fine fish floating in it's waters.
 Batesville, Clarendon, Cotter,
 Branson and Newport are some of the rapidly growing towns dotting the shores of White river.
 No longer do the great lead and zinc fields of Southern Mis- souri and Northern Arkansas lie dormant. Fundreds of men of small means have gone into this
 territory and secured for them
 selves financial independence.
 Many more are on the move try
 ing to secure a nest egg" which
 will provide in the future,
 hearthstones that may become corner stones of the great South west.
 Much has been written in re- gard to fruit raising in the
 Ozarks. It is the fruit country
 par excellence. Apples, peaches,
 pears, grapes and berries of all
 kinds are larger, more prolific
 and firmer in texture than in any
 other section of the country.
 Arkansas is a leading state of the Union in fruit growing, and : the northwestern part of the state is the premium winner.
 The first exhibit of Arkansas fruits entered for competition
 was made before the Mississippi Valley Horticultural Society at St. Louis in 1883, receiving for the best display a gold medal, ; the only gold medal awarded for any exhibit. At the Worlds ] Exposition, New Orleans, 1885, Arkansas was awarded the gold medal for the best display of fruit and seventeen special awards for varieties. At later expositions Arkansas maintained her well-earned prestige.
 The large area of unsettled lands amounting to millions of
 acres in the Southwest would, to give the figures, amount to a volume, but to consult the gov ernment reports from the gen. eral land office of the United States one will see how much there "remaineth to be pos-
 sessed."
 Under the timber culture law
 any settler who has cultivated
 for two years as much as five acres in trees of an 80 acre homestead, or ten acres of a homestead of 160 acres, is en- titled to a free patent to the land at the end of eight years. With all the timber lands lying along

WOULD ABOLISH FRANkING.
Third Assistant p. n. 4. Says lt|
Would End Deficit.

Washington, Dec. 16.-The abolish
ment of the franking privilege. the
work of correcting alleged abuses of
the second class mail privilege and "a
revision of the laws relating to the
classification of mail matter are some
of the features of the annual report of
the third assistant postmaster general.
He declares that the interests of the
government would be best subserved
by requiring that all government mail
be prepaid at the regular postage
rates, which would at once eliminate
the annual postal deficit. In his effort
to correct alleged abuses of the second
class mail privilege the third assistant
postmaster general says that while it
is necessarily and unavoidably a slow
process, there has been no relaxation
in the work.
In the book abuse alone. he says.
reports from the postoffices at Chica-
go and New York. which are the only
ones received. show that the reform
has resulted in the elimination from
the second class of approximately
1000. 900 books year at these two
offices.
Recommendation is made for a
thorough revision of all laws in rela-
ton to the classification of mail mat
ter except that of the first class, which
is composed of letters, postal cards
and private postcards.
