under the draw span, unless the river is very high, when steamers of light draught could probably get over. When the water is at it's normal stage boats will be unable to get into the channel, and although they would have no difficulty in getting up the river, once over the bar, they cannot get over the bar. The bar is forming rapidly. and unless speedy means to check it's formation are taken, navi- gation will soon be closed.
 To Construct Dykes.
 A corps of engineers under w. P. Orr of this city are now engaged in making surveys of the locality, and officials of the Cotton Belt said Sat urday that the construction of dykes seemed to be an absolute necessity A new span would be far too costly. and even then the company would have no assurance that the river would not make another change, and put it's channel under the middle span of the bridge. necessitating the construction of still another draw. It is believed that a good dyke will remedy the difficulty and it is thought that the government will join in with the rail- road company in it's construction.

TO BUILD DYKES
Officials of Cotton Belt Say Their construc. ton is Absolute Necessity to Protect Rob Roy Bridge and Corps of Engineers Now at Work on the Scene.

Dykes to prevent the Arkansas river from building a sand-bar across the present steamboat channel about a mile north of the splendid draw bridge on the Cotton Belt road at Rob Roy seem to be the only solution of the problem which is now confront ing the officials of the road. A vast expenditure of money may be involv- ed, but it is thought that this is the only way in which the difficulty can te gotten around, and active work will begin as soon as reports are had from the engineers who are now looking over the situation.
 There is a>large sand-bar in the river which passes directly under the bridge, but about quarter of mile above the bridge the head of this bar swings toward the south side of the river. The draw span in the bridge is of course in the north side of the structure, but now the current threatens to swing the head of the sand-bar directly across the river from its present location, and form Lar across the channel there.
 This of course will prevent steam CTS entering the channel which runs

PLAIN TIFF WINS
Special Chancellor Woodbridge Hands Down Decision in Case of Mrs. N. \. Parse versus W. N. TruIock, Making Perpetual Injunction Against Latter---WiII Appeal.

Sitting as special chancellor in the injunction suit of Mrs. Mary A. Parse against w. N. Trulock, brought to re- strain the latter from using the south wall of the plaintiffs building on Main street as the north wall of the second story which he is planning to build on his property which adjoins Mrs. Parse's building on the south, Judge Woodbridge Saturday granted the prayer of the petitioner, and is sued perpetual injunction. The or der issued by the court not only pro hibitS the defendants from using the wall, but also in any way affecting them.
 The case has been reviewed in the newspapers before, on account of the temporary restraining order issued by County Judge Kerwin some time ago. At the time the suit was first filed Chancellor Elliott and Circuit Judge Grace were out of the city, and as the law provides in such cases, 1t was taken before the county judge. He is- sued the temporary restraining order pending the return of Chancellor FL liott, and when Judge Elliott returned he was petitioned by the defendants to disqualify himself from sitting in judgment on the matter, on account of his being related to Mrs. Parse, the plaintiff. This prayer he granted, and appointed Judge Woodbridge to hear the suit.

White and Altheim. rl and w. F. Coleman were the attor- reys for the plaintiff Mrs. Parse and the defendant, w. N. Trulock. was represented by Austin and Danahcr
 Mir Trlllock stated Saturday that fhe result of the suit would not delay the remodeling of the store now occu- pied by Seawell and Ancrum, nor the addition of the second story. at all. They will go on with the build ing operations. building their wall on five inches of the wall of the first story which is common wall, and which both parties have right to use. The lower wall is eighteen inch cs thick, and the wall of Mrs. Parse's building is only thirteen inches thick, ie1ving MT. Trulock five inches on which to build the wall of the second story of his building. He will ap- peal the case to the supreme court, and if the decision of the lower court is reversed and the injunction dissolv- ed he will then sue the plaintiff for damages for the loss of time and ex tra expense the suit for an injunction has caused him.

for everything necessary for Arkan. sas, and I have always, whenever I received a letter from any of my con. stituents Democratic or Republican, great or small, answered it court eous- ly and done what I could for them. While so many of our men high up in public affairs have been indicted for graft and wrong-doing in office have never brought disgrace on the fair name of Arkansas. They say I am too old for the office, but there are twenty-five senators in office now who are older than I am. I am sixty four years old. and am considered one of the boys of the senate. It is not a question of age, but of ability, hon. esty, loyalty to the home and to the state serve, and of purity in public and private life. They say we want younger blood. It is not a question of the age of the blood, but of the quality of it.
 Not Pleading for Sympathy.
 Many have made the plea that we wanted a new south If by new south they mean prosperity in every home in the south, then am for new south, but if they mean that we are ashamed of the old south, then want no new south. I am not asking for votes on account of any physical misfortune, or through any sympathy IT you think another man can serve you better than have done, it is your duty to place him in office I am not before you to beg for any office. no true ex-confederate soldier ever begged"
 Bob" Rogers Speaks.
 Senator Berry was given an ova- tion which lasted several moments when he had concluded his speech, and then Chairman Taylor introduced Attorney General Rogers, who made an address of about half an hour in behalf of his candidacy for the gov ernorship. He said that there was not time for him to deliver his set stump speech, but he gave brilliant address in which he spoke on most of the important points of the cam paign, and told a number of very funny stories which were most appli. cable to the points they were intended to bring out His address was very well received, and there is no doubt that he gained many votes in Jeffer. son county by appearing here.

 But Unable to Locate Him.

 The man entered MT. Gottlieb's store between z and o'clock Saturday evening, and asked if the firm would not be able to cash check for him, as the banks were closed, and he was desirous of obtaining the money that night. MT. Gottlieb asked to see the check, and when he saw the amount of it, he demurred for a moment, but the man told a straight story, and was of such outward good appear ance that he finally consented to ac- comodate him. The check was drawn cn the Bank of Pine Bluff, and the signature of the Bluff City Lumber company was attached to 1t, and the fact that Saturday was payday at IT. lumber company's plant had a great deal to do with allaying the suspi- cions of MT. Gottlieb.
 The man made small purchase, and then, thanking the jeweler very kindly for the favor, walked out MT. Gottlieb then began making inquiries of the bank and also of the Bluff City Lumber company. and discover ed that tho check was a forgery. He notified the police. and every available man who was not travelling a beat was rut on the case. and was furnished with a description of the man. MT. Cottlieh also assisted the officers in the search.
 At late hour Saturday night the man had not been apprehended by tho officers. but the search was still in progress and the wires were kept busy for time.

party, by his own participation, with
the Regulars as announced in the call

men Ball and Alice. The coming
Republican convention, after inviting
all Republicans in the state to partici.

Since the arrival of J. E. Endean,
consulting engineer of the Smyrna,
Kent County and Delaware Bay Trac-
tion Company, trolley matters have
taken fresh hold. Mr.. Endean i'm
presses one as a thoroughly up-to-date
business man and has an earnestness s
of purpose that indicates that the troll
ley will be built with as much speed
and progress as possible. Let us have
the trolley. So many promises have
been made that the people have grown
impatient. True. there is lot of pre-
liminary work in getting q trolley sys-
tenn in shape and Promoter Click has
persisted with determination to ac-
complish the arduous task that has
been before him. 1t now begins to
look as though his valuable franchises
will be forthcoming of good results.
The arrival OF Consulting Engineer
Endean gives fresh impetus to the
movement. The Times wish them
both aboundant success in their eff
forts. Smyrna, Kent County and the
state of Delaware needs trolley sys-
tenn and it only awaits an enterprising
movement and the necessary capital to
bring the trolley to every town and
hamlet on the Peninsula.
