DIPLOMACY.

The flags were in revolt They had met IN
solemn conclave. and decided that they would
no longer stand the tyrannies and annOyances
of the seniors.
And in due course Jones minor headed depu-
tation into the seniors room. He opened the
door and stepped within. just in time to receive
a well aimed copy OF Virgil on the bridge or his
nose.
OF course. every one laughed-particularly
Perks major. who had thrown the volume. But
Jones is lad who will get on He knew that
to lose his temper would be to ruin his cause,
and he therefore smiled around the room.
1T Is very good of you. Mr.. Carnegie" he
said, Ito distribute your libraries you are
doing; but next time please don't chuck II so
hard
And then he cooIy went on with the business
on the sgeDda.--AnawsSA

A NARROW ESCAPE.
While Crossing Railroad Tracks J. S.
 hiyricks Has Wagon Smashed.

J. 5. Myricks, who lives in South Mena, had a narrow escape from being ground to pieces un- der the wheels of the switch en- zine about 9:45 this morning while attempting to cross the railroad tracks on Mena street.
 It IS stated by those who witnessed the accident that Mr. Myricks was standing up in the wagon at the the time with his head bent forward and when they saw the engine approaching began yelling at him, but if he heard them he paid no attention, and just as the horses passed over aud the wagon was on the track, the engine struck 1t. All that saved Mir. Myricks from being killed was the fact that he had tight grip on the lines and when the engine struck the wagon the horses jumped for ward, jerking him out oyer the front part of the wagon, the fall slightly bruising him about the shoulders.
 The wagon was badly broken up.

WHO IS THE JOKE ON :?
Judge Wright Prickeit's Picture Used to
 Represent (. (. Palmer.


 The Arkansas Democrat of Sunday, May 20, iu giving an account of the conviction of ex. Mayor C. c. Palmer ia ihe circuit court recently, inserted picture Of Judge Wright Prickett with the name, "Hon. c. c. Palmer" {" printed underneath.
 Of course this was an error as no respectable paper would know ingly use one mans picture to represent another, at the same tune It IS one of those mistakes which are not at all pleasing to the man misrepresented.
 It is hardly possible, however, that ex-Mayor Palmer is the one most wronged, or may feel that way, which causes the Star to ask "who is the joke ou" if il was joke.
 In explanation will state that last January the Democrat pub. lished the picture of Mir. Prickett and in some manner known best  by the 'scabs' in that office used his picture instead of Palmer's in connection with the article as stated.

NEGRO SHOOTS POLICEMAN.
The Black Man Was Pushed Out of Hot
 Springs 10 Avoid Lynching.

Springs 10 Avoid Lynching.
 Hot Springs, May 20. With Policeman William Harbin at the point of death from wounds in- fiicted by Will Robinson, a negro, public indignation ran so big h here today that the authorities seized a favorable opportunity to get the negro out of the city.
 While Tn a drunken condition last night Robinson made him. self obnoxious to citizens in the vicinity of Grand aud Central avenues by loud talking and swearing. In response to com plaints, Policeman Harbin ap- peared on the scepe and placed Robinson under arrest. With his prisoner tie officer started to the city calaboose. They had pro- ceeded but short distance when the negro suddenly jerkcd away, striking the officer an unexpected blow as he moved. As Harbin tell In consequence of the blow the burly negro grapled with him and desperate struggle ensued. Harbin mana ged to get his revol- yer out and fire twice at close rang, but each shot went wild.
 Finally the negro wrested the revolver from the officer and opened fire on the latter. One of the bullets penetrated Harbin's lung and so prostrated him that he was unable to offer further resistance. All this occurred about 10:30 o'clock. When per- sons close at hand who heard the shooting rushed to the scene the negro had fled. The wounded officer was at once taken to his home.
 Then began search for the fleeing negro. Men known for determination and efficiency in  tasks of the kiud were soon mak- ing thorough hunt for the sugi- tive, but daybreak came before Robinson was discovered in hid- ing under house not far from the point where the shooting occurred. He was captured by O6icer Howell after hard tussle, during which 1t was necessary to club the negro into submission.
 Ii Robinson could have been caught during the night there is little doubt that he would have been lynched. The belief that mob violence was still imminent caused Sheriff Williams to decide upon getting the negro out of the mob's reach as soon as possible. The sheriff took the Little Rock train on the Rock Island at 1:5O p. I'll.
 Harbin is still alive, but his condition is precarioas, and there is small hope of his recovery.
