Killed By Lightning.

S. A. Knighton, a prominent
banker of Hope, was instantly
killed by lightning one day last
week while standing in the rear
doorway of his barn. No one
saw him fall, but MS body was
found a few minutes later.
Mrs. Knigbton was in the house
when a binding flash, followed
Immediately by a deafening crash
of thunder, startled and alarmed
her. Running to the door, she
called to her husband, and on
receiving no answer she ran to
the barn and found his body
lying on the ground, and across
the alley in front Of him a small
tree was shattered by lightning.
The alarm was quickly given
and medical aid was summoned,
but an examination indicated
that death had been instantane-
Gus.
The electric current, after
shattering the tree, had entered
at the unfortunate mans fore
head, breaking his glasses and
twisting the frames of them, and
had then passed through the
body.

James Brenton, ex-mayor OF
Des Moines, Iowa, is working on
the streets of that city for 50 a
day in order to save his home
from sale under mortgage and to
support his wife and children.
8renton is made of the right sort
of stuff. When financial reverses
came and his fortune was swept
away, he did not commit suicide
or become a fit subject for an in
sane asylum, as many men have
done under similar circumstances,
but welt bravely to work as a
day laborer in the city of his for
mer trlumphs. OF course Bren-
ton is made of the right sort of
stuff. He will come again. The
world needs many more just like
him.

An Important Bill.

Perhaps the most important
bill introduced in the legislature
last week was by Senator Hinkle,
by request or the state capitol
commission, to appropriate $500, =
600 for the completion of the new
state capitol. The bill provides
for a tax levy of one and a half
mills for two years to raise
the amount appropriated, and
the commissioners say that with
this amount they will be able to
have the state capitol ready for
occupancy on January 1, 1907.

Formers Bill Defeated.

By a vote of So to Is the lower
house of the legislature has de-
feated the DeRossitt bill for the
better protection of farmers,
making it misdemeanor punish
able with a fine and imprison-
ment for a tenant to forfeit his
contract with his landlord. The
bill was intended to correct the
evil arising out of the fact that
a large number of negro tenants
on the cotton plantations of east
ern and southern Arkansas each
year would remain on the plan
tations for a period of Sc, eral
mouths during the dull seat on
and be supplied with provisions
by the land owners with the un-
derstanding that such tenant
would remain and work during
the harvest or planting season,
but at the beginning of the busy
season such tenant would move
to an adjoining plantation, and
the former landlord had no re-
course for recovery Of the amount
due him by said tenant. The
necessity for such measure as
the DeRossitt bill comes almost
altogether from the "Black Belt"
and this local feature aided very
much in its defeat, the northern
and western part of the state
believing that such a measure
would be detrimental to their best
interests. 1t is probable that a
bill of this character applying
only to the "Black Belt" will be
introduced later on in the session.

PARDON AFTER 20 YEARS.

The Arkansas Democrat OF
Thursday of last week contains
this bit of interesting news:
The governor yesterday after
noon pardoned James Brannon
of Searcy county, who was con-
victed in 1886 of perjury, and
sentenced to five years in the
penitentiary.
Brannon was a young man
when convicted twenty years ago
He escaped from the Searcy coun-
ty jail at Marshall by saving
through the bars, and going west,
concealed himself in California.
A plan to have his wife join him
was frustrated by the officials,
and all trace of him was again
lost. Several years after his
wife remarked, having heard
nothing of him. She first secured
divorce, and her second hus-
band died recently.
About a year ago ho wrote
that he proposed to return and
surrender, and a movement was
started for his pardon. Several
days ago he returned to Marshall
and surrendered to Sheriff
Bromley and Attorney Frank
Pace of Harrison. Half an hour
after he was placed in the pen
itentiary Gov. Davis signed his
pardon upon the appliction oi
friends.
A letter was presented from j
T. Wilson of Prescott, Ariz., who
was prosecuting attorney a
Searcy at the time of Brannon's
conviction. He recited that
Brannon had fallen under the
evil influence of crowd of law
breakers, and that his perjury
consisted in false swearing 3 as to g
game of poker.
Brannon comes of a good fami-
ly. Hi is friends predict he and
his wife will be remarked. They
have one daughter who was born
about the time of her fathers
flight. He left last night for his
old home at Marshall.

It Did Contain n Bill.

It had never been supposed that Mir. Oakley would experience change of heart sufficient to cause him to en- large his regular contribution of twen. ty-fivc cents month to the church at Ransom's Corners, but one Sunday Deacon Snow felt that the wonder must have been accomplished.
 The new minister had preached a fervent missionary sermon, begging the people. of Ranson's Corners to do their part toward sending the light to those who dwell afar in heather dark ness.
 Just before Deacon Snow reached Mi. Oakey's pew the old man drew from his pocket sealed envelope, and when the box came along he dropped the envelope into it with half smile OH his wrinkled face.
 T want to thank you, MT. Oakley, for your generous gift," said the min ister, hurrying after the old man when service was over. "Deacon Snow has, ot course, not opened the envelope as vet but he tells me there is evidently bill in It."
 "Yes, sir there is," said MT. Oakley, dryly. "It seemed to me twas about time to drop in the bill for kerosene the church has been accommodating now for more than two years"

Where She Got Chicken.

Travelling in eastern North Carolina a few years ago l was obliged to change cars at place called Weldon.
 About the bour of noon, having seat ed myself, I glanced out of the car window, to find a motherly-looking old colored woman with tray upon her head containing really inviting quar- ters of fried chicken. After having regaled myself with "laig," I leaned out of the window and said: "Auntie, that is awfully good chicken. Where did you get it?"
 Slowly and solemnly the tray was lifted from her head and deposited upon the platform. Then looking up she said: Say, boss, youse from de Norf, ain't you?"
 "Yes, Auntie,"'I said; "but what has that got to do with the chicken?"
 "Well, boss" she said, q knowed you was from de Norf, else you would never ask a cullud pusson where dey get chicken"
