Recital a Great Success.

The magnificent audience which greeted Mrs. c. B. Crook at the recital given by her class in the opera house on Tuesday evening is fair expression of the popu- larity of Mrs. Crook as an or ganizer, instructor and director. Few audiences in this city have been better qualified to judge impartially and critically or to appreciate such an entertain ment than this one.
 The opening chorus by the class was fine beginning, fol- lowed by selections from the Mikado in costume, each part being we'll taken and showing careful training. Some of the class have only studied vocal a few weeks.
 The second part of the pro- gram was equally as good as the first, each singer doing herself credit.
 Mrs. Simpson charmed the audience as she always does here and responded to a hearty enchore with a beautiful ballad.
 Miss Minnie Lee Jago was not able to appear on account of her late illness.
 Bennie Brasch in his whistling solo was a popular number.

Supreme Court Awards Custody of BfeCkinridge Children to Mothers
 Parents of Alicia.

Mir. Chief Justice Hill deliver ed the opinion of the supreme court Monday in the case of Mary Breckinridge against J. H. Breckinridge. No. 5823; appeal from Garland Chancery Court. The evidence in the case sus- tained the chancellor in granting divorce to the appellee, but the chancellor erred in directing that the children be taken from the possession of their mother and grandparents and placed in the custody of their father. The evidence satisfies the court that the grandparents, with whom the mother was living, are the best parties among those desir- ing to have the children, and it is to the welfare of the children that thelfbe left in the posses sion of the grandparents for the time being. The judgment as to the custody 3f children is re- yesed,xN rections to make apl k.lood ers for visitation and support. As to the decree of divorce, the judgment is af- frmed.
 The attorneys for the plaintiff, who was formerly a Miss Jones of Alicia, were Hons. Gustave Jones of Newport and c. D. Greaves of Hot Springs.

Inspector Baker Says White River Bridg' Had Close Call From Destruction
 In Big Rise.

Little Rock, May 8.-Mr. l. A.. Baker, inspector of bridges and buildings for the Iron Mountain, returned from Newport where he went to look over the work which is being done >on the bridge over the White river.
 Mr., Baker says the span upon which the force has been at work was swung last week and that within a few days it will be bolted up and finished. This is the part of the Newport bridge which came so near going out last month under the great flood of water whi,h came down from the mountain sides. How near it came to going was not fully realized until the waters had subsided, and it was seen that practically the entire structure depended upon a few bolts, the remainder having been broken by the strain. The false work, upon which trains were crossing the river at that time, is now being torn out and the bridge cleared of all Instructions.

When J. Adam Bede, congressman
from Duluth, was asked to speak on
New Years resolutions the other day,
he answered by repeating a story
which Speaker Cannon tells Of a
young man In the days when the ad-
hesive postage stamp first came in.
After gazing at the envelope and
stamp for some time the enterprising
youth decided to test the strange de-
vice. After he had written the note
he sealed the envelope and looked
hard at the stamp. He was afraid It
would not stick. Finally, molstening
1t, he placed It on the corner of the
envelope and although It seemed to
stick then he feared that IL might dry
of before the journey was ended, so
he pinned It to the envelope and wrote
beneath this informing notice: Post
age paid II this thing sticks" This
seemed to Mr.. Bede illustrative of
New Years resolutions. Their value
depends wholly on their sticking.

New Blood.


The first sign of rheumatism Is fro
quently pain and swelling in one OF
the joints. IL not combated i'm the
blood, which is the seat of the disease,
the poison spreads, affecting other joints
and tissues. Sometimes rheumatism at
tacks the heart and is quickly fatal.
The one remedy that has cured
rheumatism SO that it stays cured Is DIR.
Williams Pink Pills. These pills expel
the poison from the blood and restore
the system. so that the poisonous matter
is passed off as nature intended.
Mrs. 1. T.. Pitcher, of No. $50 Mon
mouth street, Newark. N. J., suffered
for about three years from rheumatism
before she found this cure. She says:
1t began with a queer feeling in my
fingers. In little time it seemed as
though the finger joints had Jumps on
them and could not get my gloves on.
