Yellow fever Quarantine Duty Will Prove as GOed Schooling as an
 Encouragement.

Little Rock, Aug. IA. Upon the return of Gov. Davis he d. rected Gen. Haynes to cause an order issued postponing until further advices the encampment at Morrilton the last week of August and the one at Jonesboro the first week in September.
 This decision was reached be- cause it is intended to so alter nate the men of the guard now on quarantine duty that every officer and man of the organlza- tion may have an opportunity to serve the state board of health during the period of the pr asent emergency, keeping individuals out of the state who may have been at any infected point.
 This quarantine duty on the part of the guardsmen will be as efficient camp service and be such a schooling in soldierly duty as might be obtained at regu- lar school of instruction at an annual encampnent. The plan is to change the enlisted men on quarantine service at least every ten days, so that within thirty days there will be a complete new force. It is also expected that every company officer will have an opportunity to do duty under the instructions of the state board of health.

Mariana Gives Drummer Who Defied ... Quarantine Mafm Reception. ;,

Mark w. Searcy of Memphis, who travels for the Buckeye Cot ton Oil Mills at Little Rock, re- turned to Wynne Wednesday night after a strenuous experi- ence with the health authorities at Marianna, says the Wynne Blade-Democrat. MT. Searcy held a health certificate from Dr. Cantrell of the Arkansas state board of health and one from Dr. Heber Jones of the Memphis board, both properly stamped by the ticket agents at the towns, he had stopped in the two days since their issuance, but the health officers who inspected the train at Marianna refused to look at these and informed Searcy he could not get off.
 MT. Searcy said: T would rather have been in jail at Mari anna than in a detention camp at Helena, so when the train stopped at Mariana l stepped off. l was immediately arrested, carried up town and before the mayor, at the instance of Dr. Deaderick, presumably presi- dent of the board of health.
 A crowd gathered around us on the street, in which was Mayor Slaughter, and they pro- ceeded to try me in this kanga- roo fashion without even taking me into a house.
 Without the fornality of a trial l was informed that a fine of S10.50 would be assessed against me. l said l would not pay it and after a whispered con- versation they decided to make a cut rate of S9. This l was forced To pay.
 "A friend of mine, Frank Govan, came up during the trial and informed the authorities that he would vouch for me, but his word would not stay the pro- ceedings. y
 Mr. Searcy declared that after he paid his fine he was told to leave town at once, but he re- fused and the city marshal shad- owed him until he caught the local and returned to Wynne. He will institute a damage suit against Marianna.

MARRANTS FOR ARREST.
Drastic Means Taken to Compel Attend anCe Upon Inquest of Prominent
 iron Mountain Officials.

Failing to answer the subpoe- naes as witnesses to appear before the coroner's inquest over the Diaz wreck, warrants for the ar rest of four Iron Mountain off cials were sworn out Monday evening, and placed in the hands of the sheriff.
 They will be served upon Divi- sion Superintendent Green, Trainmaster Stallcup, Claim Agent Washburn and Conduc- tor Graves, the first time a chance offers and bond will be required of each of them for their appearance in court.
 The railroad people allege their witnesses were here Satur- day morning to be heard, and as they were put off, the court must now show them some con- sideration. On the other hand the coroner and his jury are in- dignant over the treatment ac- corded their court, and deter mined to bring the officials to time.
 Another futile Session.
 Nothing practically was &C., complished in Mondays session of the coroner's inquest jury, through failure to secure the wanted witnesses and adjourn ment was taken until Wednes- day.
 In the afternoon J. N. Hollis ter, ticket agent at Little Rock, testified that he had sold to Thomas Scanlon and son tourist tickets to some point in Canada, probably Arthur, good for re- turn in sixty days. The coroner has thus far failed to secure the return of the tickets sold to the two lost passengers.

Hudson's New Library.

The Hudson Carnegie Library
building has been open to the pub
lie for several months but the full
measure of it's contemplated effici-
ency is not yet attained by reason
of the fact that the main purpose,
the furnishing OF an adequate Ii
brary, has not been reached, nor
can this be expected for some time
to come. The donation of Mr.. Car
ne2ie was used up in the construc"
ton of the building. The city, in
its corporate capacity, and the citi-
zens, are required to supply the
literature. The city has appropri-
ated some money to buy books and
donations from citizens OF money
and books have been made to such
an extent that the library is already
of much value and is used with in
terest and profit by many of the
people of the city. There was a
stipulation in the Carnegie PROPOSE
ton to give the city $4,000 fora
building to the effect that the city
should raise by tax annually cer-
tain sum-$1 900 we think-for the
support of the library. We do not
know whether it was required that
this sum of 81 900 was to be ex-
pended exclusively in the purchase
of books and periodicals or whether
the running expenses-salaries Of
librarian, janitors, fuel, etc.,-is
comprehended

Where Women Are Free

Austria is the one country in the
world which never puts a woman in
prison. Instead of giving a female
criminal so many months of Jail, she
is sent, no matter how terrible is her
record, to one or other of the converts
devoted to the purpose. and kept there
during the time for which she is sen.
fenced. The convent is not a mere
prison In disguise, for its courtyard
stands open all day long, the only bar
to egress being a nun who acts as
Fortress, just as in other converts.

The fourth number in the Peoples
Lecture Course at the M. E. church
Tuesday evening, Jan. "a, lecture
on sculpture, with practical illus
trations, by dorado Taft. Mr.. Taft
is a favorite lecturer and furnishes
an evening of pleasing and instruc-
tive entertainment. From the
Springfield (Ill.) Sun:
Mr.. Taft lectured on "A Glimpse
of the Sculptor's Studio, +" or How
Statues Are Made" He used a
number of subjects and worked in
clay modelling before the eyes of
the audience. 1t was something
marvellous, for with few touches
of his fingers he transformed a
shapeless mass of clay into a face,
and in the twinkliEg of an eye
changed the expression on that face
from laughter to tears, from joy to
sadness, from seriousness TO sur
prise, just as he desired. He is al
so a fascinating lecturer and a
humorist of no mean ability. These
traits worked pleasingly with his
ability as sculptor.

DR.. E. L. Boothby and wife stop
ped over at Hudson for a few hours
early in the week, while on their
way back from the West where they
had been to visit their daughter.
Their son Jonathan, who was for a
time editor of the Hammond News,
is now associated with Mr.. Towner
at Lynden, Washington, and the
firm are doing prosperous publish
ing business. While here, the
Doctor took occasion to call down
the physicians of the country in
general for their quarrelsomeness
or rather for their ability to retain
grudge after they have been
quarreling. He says the doctors
should learn wisdom from the law
yers who will double their fists up
under each others noses during the
progress of a heated discussion,
and at the end, with a smile and a
cocktail, be as complacent as though
nothing had happened, while doc
tors retain their grievances peren-
nially. DR.. Boothby is certainly
right in all this. The doctors should
be like the newspaper men and learn
to dwell together in unity.-Hudson

SEASON CLOSES.
Hatchery at Commission Station, Bry-
ans Point, Discontinued.

The fishing season at the Bryan's Point
station Of the United States fish commits
sion, on the Maryland side OF the river, be-
\low Fort Washington, closed Saturday and
the Matching of the eggs of the shad by
Artificial means is over for the season. The
3tation has been cleaned out for the year
and the men who were employed there have
been laid of and have returned to their
homes.
The United States fish commission service
yacht Philalope is in port here, and will
remain for several days to undergo some
repair work. When this work Is completed
she will sail for the fisheries On the coasts
be employed there during the winter in
scientific research work for the commission,
dragging and TRAVELLING for new specimens
of fish in deep water. She will also en-
gage, 1t Is stated, in cod propagation work
during the summer months. The yacht 1t
is expected. will be ready to leave here
early in the coming month.
The shad propagating season az the Bry-
an s Point station was very unsatisfactory
and the results obtained were poorer than
for several years past. Owing to the
scarcity of the shad in the Potomac
throughout the season the station could
not obtain anything like the quantity of
eggs desired. AS consequence only about
24,000,O00 shad were Matched, whereas the
average seasons work Is about 40,O00.t00
eggs. The buildings at Bryan's Point have
been closed up and are in charge of care
taker until the perch Matching season opens
next spring.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
Maggie Lawson Tried to Jump From a
Bridge

Maggie Lawson. colored. twenty-seven
years old, reached the conclusion yester-
day that she was tired of life and made an
effort to leave this world by jumping from
the bridge across the James Creek canal.
The woman's home is at No. % Pierce
court southwest. 1t was about 4 o'clock
when she left her home and went to the
canal. She was seen when she made an
effort to leap from the bridge and the affair
caused some excitement in that section.
Maggie Lawson's done jumped off the
bridge and hung on the fence" shouted
small boy who spread the information
about South Washington in order that the
woman might get rescued.
1t was true that the woman's clothing had
caught on the fence and held her long
enough to prevent her from getting bath
in the filthy stream. The patrol wagon
reached the scene in a short time and Mag
gle removed to the Emergency Hos
pital. She had received several painful
cuts, but was not in a serious condition.
She told the police that she had been drink
ing and hardly knew what she was doing.
Last night she went home from the hos
pital with her husband.

Columbia Theater.

An audience that taxed the seating ca
pacity of the Columbia Theater was high
ly entertained last evening by the fine per-
Torrance of THE Second in Command,
given by the Columbia Stock Company.
The play which deals with English mill
tary life, is replete with clever lines, and
the cast of characters permits the mem
bers of the stock company to display their
abilities to advantage. Mr.. Guy Standing
apears as Col. Anstruther, the role he orig
inally created when the piece was produced
by John Drew, and his work last evning
continues to merit the favorable COM
ment with which his former efforts were
rewarded. He portrays the refined type of
gentlemanly English officer and his per-
Torrance was characterized by a thor
ough appreciation of the demands of the
part A notable delineation of the role of
Major Bingham, the second in command,
is that given by Mr.. Fuller Mellish The
character of the kind-hearted major,
whose fondest hopes are being continually
shattered, is that appeals strongly.
Mr.. Mellish, by his finished chara cteriza-
ton of the unlucky officer who retains his
cheerful disposition in spite of reVerses,
made a distinctly favorable impression.
His work in the scene in the third act
when he learns that he is not to go to the
front with the regiment is effective and
convincing.
In the role Of Muriel Mannering Miss
May Hennessey won approval by her SYM
pathetic work, and Jeffreys Lewis was
vigorous and interesting as Lady Har-
burgh. Louise Galloway made a pleasing
and vivacious Norah Vining. To the eff
forts of George CASTOR, the Honorable
Hildebrand Carstairs, is due the credit for
a large share of the amusement afforded
by the performance, and John Dean and
Malcolm Duncan appear to advantage in
the roles of Lieut.. Mannering and Lieut..
Barker, respectively.
