Word was recently received at the State Supreme Court that the Govan Beard case, which went up to the Uni ted States Supreme Court from the Ar. kansas Supreme Court on a writ of error, will not be called in the higher tribunal until some time in October 1907. The exact date is not known, but it is stated that pressure of othsr business makes this delay necessary The clerk of the United States Su. preme Court sets all cases for trial in the order in which they are received and 1t is only in extreme cases that cases are taken out of their turn More cases have been set for hearing this term than can be disposed of un. der ordinary conditions, and it is ex pected there is little chance of the Govan Beard case being taken up prior to the time set for 1t,

GOV. TAFT
DID NOT CRtTiClSE PALMA GOV,
 EMINENT AS REPORTED.
The Rebels Are Being Disarmed With out Trouble-Magoon Goes to
 Cuba.

Havana.-In recent interview Governor Taft said that a dispatch of of the Associated Press, in which he was reported as eriticising the Palma government severely, and characterize ing the situation as disgusting and the elections of 1905 as rotten, does great injustice, and unless corrected will cause embarrassment, since he scrupu- lously avoided giving interviews re- speeding his views of persons and issues In the Cuban republic. He did not uso the expressions attributed to him. The error arose through the faulty trans. mission of news over the telephone, by which the differences of cores. pondence were mistakenly attributed to MT. Taft.
 The alacrity with which the rebels are laying down their arms is the grandest surprise the provisional gov. ernment has encountered in Its smoothly working program. This oper' ation Is now we'll under way in the vi. cinity of Havana, 700 of Guerra's men, with their horses, having already en. trained for Pinar del Rio, while one brigade marched to Guanajay without sign of disorder.
 Hundreds of persons from Havana went out to Santiago de las Vegas and Rincon to view the disarmament. They were disappointed at not seeing the rebels actually surrender their guns, but nevertheless they witnessed as in. teresting sight.
 As a concession to the men Gen Funston and Maj Ladd permitted them | to take their arms to Pinar del Rio, where most of the men had joined the | insurgent army. The rifles, however were first counted by officers of ma. rines under the direction Maj. Ladd and the men will be required to sur render them before leaving the train at Pinar del Rio. The marines sent tc Pinar del Rio were prepared to en force order and see that the disband ed rebels dispersed quietly.
 The revolutionists at various points along the line were all willing to dis band, believing thoroughly 1n the non orable intentions of President Roose welt and Secretary Taft.
 The speech delivered by Governor Taft before the University of Hayani has been received with great satisfac tion by both the revolutionists and tn, government party in Santa Clara pro vince.
 Washington.-It has been announced at the White House that on further consideration of the subject the presi dent had decided to adhere to his lat est plan and send Charles E. Magoon t Cuba to relieve Secretary Taft as pro visional governor, allowing Governor Winthrop to remain in Porto Rico where his services are needed.

Novel SuTts In Federal Court.

In the United States Circuit Court at Little Rock recently two suits for damages were filed on removal from the Lonoke Circuit Court, in each case the defendant being the Chicago.

Buchanan is the plaintiff in one case and demands $5.O00 damages. He alleges he bought roundtrip ticket from Benton to Lit tie Rock on June 6. He alleges the ticket was valid until June 12, but that the gateman at the station refused to allow him to pass through the gates at the station in this city when he was ready to return. He ayers the gateman called a policeman, caused his arrest and that for a period of half hour he was confined in the cal aboose. Homer A. Nelson declares he bought round-trip ticket from Hot date, and that he was refused egress through the gates when he wished to return. It is also alleged that he was arrested and confined at the instance of the company's gateman. The de- fendant company filed an answer to the complaints denying the allegations ip toto

ARlLITYoF PRIMITIVE INVENTORS

The millionaire who has started
with nothing says that the accumula-
ton of the first one thousand dollars
requires more ability and self-control
than to amass the remainder of the
fortune.
On this principle, it has been con-
jectured that, considering the original
ity of the primitive inventors and the
difficulty of overcoming obstacles,
they had greater ability than the
moderns.
The inventor of needle and thread
and the art of sewing, than the inven-
tor of the sewing-machine
OF the process of breaking the wild
horse and OK to pillow and wagon, than
the inventor of the locomotive on rail
or common road.
OF the wheeled vehicle, especially
the hub-and-spoke wheel, than the in
ventor of the finest coach or carriage
for the rail or otherwise.
VI the fireplace and chimney, IMAM
the inventor of steam or hot-water
heating
OF crude electrical experiments, in

BRIGHT PROSPECTS
FOR THE FAIR
Every Mail Brings An Inquiry Showing
The Widespread Interest.

Almost every day there is some new
Indication promising more than usual
success for the fall fair. Manager
Moore is receiving many inquiries for
catalogues from people interested in

ern Fair Circuit was here Thursday
and states that there will be a larger
number of good race horses here than

tucky show horses will compete for
the liberal premiums in the horse
show. This statement is borne out by
the early inquiries being received for
stall room, and the Association is al
ready taking steps to provide the ad-
ditional stables that will be needed.
A better class of special attractions
and concessions, and a greater num-
Der Of them, are asking for contracts
and space, and the Association will
be able to fill every available space
with concession or attraction of high
class.
The Association has already begun
some work on the grounds and has or
dered material for further improve
ment. The announcement of an in
creased passenger service on the n,
F. & S. is sure to work to the adj
vantage of the fair. People will be
enabled to come here frome Florence,
Tuscumbia, Sheffield and intermediate
points and spend the day and return
home the same night. If you have
friend in any of these towns or at
other places. who you think will be
interested in the fair and might at
tend, give Manager Moore the address
and he will take pleasure in sending a
catalogue.

AMER
ICAN PEARLS.
Gems Worth Thousands of Dollars
Taken From Western Rivers.

A rush of wholesale pearl mer-
chants from New York to the Wa
bash, Wisconsin and other Western
rivers has taken place, so that all of
the prominent firms are now repre-
sented by one or more members or
agents. The cause is ascribed to a
recent increase in the number of gems
that are being found in the mussel
beds and to the discovery of several
unusually fine specimens.
The most valuable American pearl
brought to New York this season. a
round white gem weighing sixty-eight
grains, was bought several days ago
by Maurice Brewer, of ~ John street,
and it is said to be held now at $751;
900. although it was sold by the orig
inal finder for rs cents. The pearl
came in a shell the size of silver
dollar which was taken out of the Mis-
sissippi River on the Wisconsin bank
Another pearl offered for $4,000 in
the Maiden Lane district last week
by |. E. Anthony, of Comanche, La,
is a ninety-grain pear-shaped gem Of
pink color.
Other tinted beauties of various
sizes up to 100 grains have also ar
rived from Vincennes, Ind, Prairie gu
CHEN, Wis, and other centers "!
pearl hunting activity. But the Nov
York buyers, after seeing the early
discoveries, set out for the rivers in
order to buy on the ground as other
wise the prices multiply many times
on the way from the man who first
sees the pearl to the buyer in this
city.
Mr.. Brewer, before going west, said
that he intended to buy pearls to the
value of 100000 for the markets in
this city and Paris. The high water
in Western rivers in the first part of
the season interfered with pearl fish
ing, but now the fishermen are hav-
ing an unusually successful season. An
increased demand from manufacturers
of buttons and novelties for the mus
sci shells have helped the gem part
Of the industry by attracting much
larger number of fishermen. The
for pearls is not profitable ex-
cept when the shells are sold to adj
vantage.
The greater number of gems found
in the present season according to this
have come from the Wa
bash River, within 200 miles of Vim
cennes; but New York is also receiv-
ing supplies from the Mississippi, Wis
consin, Ohio and some other rivers.
