WHITE RIVERS
 DAMAGE BELOW

Augusta, May 28. With the exception of a few days of sum- shine, it has been raining in this county since May l.
 The White river at this point has been overfowing the country for several weeks. Much of the low land has not been planted, and can only be planted in late corn or hay now. The mer- chants are gloomy as well as the farmers over the prospects.
 There are scarcely any young chickens. The heavy rains drown them as fast as they are matched. The pearling industry has been closed down on White river for nearly three months, which means much loss to Au- gusta.

 port Thursday.

Lee Derling, living on the Staf- ford farm, two and a half miles north of Jacksonport, who has been engaged in getting out logs for the Muirhead Shingle Con- pany, while out hunting Thurs day was drowned in the back water from Black river.
 A hunt for the missing man was instituted Friday and the boat found, together with a squirrel he had killed. It is sup posed that the discharge of the gun knock ed him from the boat. Why he was not able to save his life, being good swimmer, is rather remarkable.
 The body was found Sunday by friends and buried next day at Hickory Grove. The gun has not been found and probably will not be recovered until the water goes down.

TOGO TRIUMPHS
 OVER ROJESTVENSKY
In Greatest Naval Battle of Mod ern Times, Detroying Rus
  sian Fleet The Latest Developments.

"Togo triumphant" is the news 'heralded by every wire, filling in the latest details of the greatest naval battle in the. worlds his tory. The little Jap admiral has given a good account of himself in the destruction of the power full fleet sent by Russia to the far East to restore her maritime prestige and power.
 The latest bulletin says ''the Russian fleet has been annihilated and the Japanese loss is practi- cally nothing. Sixteen Russian warships have been sunk, in- cluding three battleships, one of these the admiral s flagship, who is said to have gone down, two Russian warships captured and the others scattered and in flight for a harbor of refuge where they may be informed.
 The great battle opened at dusk Saturday evening, when Togo signaled the torpedo fo- tilla to make an onslaught upon the Russian fleet heading north ward at full steam through the Korean straits. The story of the battle in all it's graphic de- tails and awful results has not been told, but continued through out the night and Sunday.
 The result would seem to force Russia to accept the Japs' terms of peace, but they have been obstinate before in crushing de- feat, and may again refuse.
 An American ship was sunk by Rojestvensky probably to keep the Japs from getting informa- tion of their whereabouts, and President Roosevelt has called upon Russia for an explanation.

COIN HARVEY
 HAS ENCOUNTER.
Labor Organizer Mixes Things Up With the Former Popu- list and Uses Him Very
 6 Roughly.

Rogers, May 28. W. H. (Goin) Harvey was badly bruised this afternoon at Monte Ne, his sum- mer resort, five miles from Rog- CTS, in an encounter with w. J. Malett. MT. Malett is a we'll known labor organizer, and is from Fort Smith. He is one of the largest men in the state, be- ing over 6 feet. The trouble oc- cured over an editorial in MT. Harvey's paper. Reports as to who was the aggressor differ, but Harvey. thinking Malett was going to assault him attempted to draw revolver.
 Malett knocked Harvey down and handled him pretty roughly, some claiming he kicked him in the side. A telephone message this evening says his injuries are not dangerous though painful.
 A strike of masons and car penters on the handsome club house MT. Harvey is building for a stock company at Mote Ne is at the bottom of the trouble.

Dogs Voice.

ut may sound curious to persons
not familiar with the pleasures Of
hunting aad who know little or moth
ing of wnsr I may call the language
of dogs he language they use not
among themselves, but when they
want to address their masters in the
woods-I say it may sound curious
to state tnst the experience hunter
can tell the kind of game traced by
the way the dog barks, but he can do
precisely thus very 'riug. sn old
hunter said as be gosslped With u
crowd of friends IN oue Of the hotels.
''Of course I have reference to the
ali round dog and not the dog that
may be trained for particular kind
of sport. There are deer dogs, besr
dogs, fex dogs, coon dogs. squirrel
dogs and other dogs that have what
we would call among human beings
epecialtles, and, no matter now
tempting the game, they will not de-
part from their training to chase
only certsio kind of animal. But
/ was just thinking of the all round
dog-.ns dog that will chase any old
kind of game. I recall dog OF this
sort owned by friend Of mine in
Arkansas, and be was about the most
useful member I ever saw. He was
good at any old kind of game IN the
woods and Was intelligent enough
always to know just what his master
wanted him to hunt. BE would
tackle anything, from rabbit to
bear, and had enough hound in him
to always bark when he struck
trail. This barking constituted the
lang uaee be used when be wanted to
pot,ty his master what bad Of trail
ke bad struck. and his master would
know q aite as we'll as if be had called
out tie nsme Of the thing. He knew
iy the way the dog barked- 1t be
merely struck rabbit track be made
but l.stIe noise, and be wa- not very
DolsY on a squirrels Trail, tnouen
the bark was somewhat different
from that used when be tra.led
rabbit.
$50 the coon yelp and the possrm
yelp we,e differeut as to each other
and different as to other yelps and
trlfi. louder than the barkaug Oh y
rabbit or squirrel trail. But let
bin strike deer trail or bear trail
we'll, you would think the world
was couing to an end. He would
make more noise than whole pack
would. The bigger the game, 1t
seems, the louder be would bark.
And yet bis master could tell from
the way the dog intoned his yeip
whether be was chasing bear or a
deer, aud be wouldn't have TO wait
either to learn the character and
dir ection of the dogs movements IN
order to determine what kind OF trail
he had struck
