MURDER OR SUICIDE 1T C0TTER.
4 Ieweler Found Dead in His Room in Hotel Tremaiae tdd Been Dis
 slpating ti.tie C:-. Hi.h hin.

News reached Is this morning of mysterious death at Cotter, some time Wednesday night or Thursday morning.
 A jeweler named Nelson came to Cotter several months ago and opened up a jewelry store, and was doing nice business, some think he had a family elsewhere, but he only had one child with him, a little girl about six years old.
 4 Jew peddler came in to Cot ter a few days ago, handling jewelry and spent good deal of his time with Nelson. Wednes- day night Nelson was taken sick in his room at the Tremaine ho- tel. His little girl was sleeping with him. About midnight some one went to his room and he seemed to be getting along al- right, but the next morning early he was found dead and his condition showed he had been dead some time.
 The jewelry peddler claimed grip that was supposed to con- tain most of Nelson's valuables, and was seen looking through it. He was arrested, and is held awaiting an examination. An inquest was held but we have not been able to get any further facts than above mentioned. -I Batesville Guard.

 and From EiB Classes.

San Francisco, April 20-The great fire following the earth quake was practically under con- trol at 2 o'clock today, having destroyed what remained after clhe earthquake in almost three fourths of the entire city.
 The greater part of the west ern addition, beautiful resi- dence section west of Van Ness Avenue, was saved. Expert use of high explosives checked the flames in iii their western pro- gress.
 Small fires were burning in different parts of the city but were no longer regarded as dan- gerous.
 Two hundred thousand home less persons are encamped at Golden Gate Park, while 150, 900 more are scattered through va rious camps in the extreme vest ern part of San Francisco county. Every effort is being made to perfect a system for providing the unfortunates with food drink and shelter.
 Supplies began arriving at San Francisco yesterday, but, owing to the lack of organization, many went hungry.
 Thousands of refugees are in Oakland, Berkeley and Almeda, across the bay, where extraor- dinary efforts are being made to feed and shelter them. An un- ending procession of fugitives from the ruined city is passing southward, filling all the towns from San Jose to Los Angeles.
 The losses in Southern Cali fornia towns are very heavy.
 The losses in towns between San Francisco and Santa Bar bara are very heavy, but accur- ate estimates are as yet inlpossi- ble. The number of casualties in almost every instance has been exaggerated.

Jeff Makes Another Assault On the Fair Name of the Common wealth and Paints

In his speech before the con- vention of commercial clubs in St. Louis the other day Gov. Jeff Davis made another assault upon the fair name of Arkansas in which he said:
 Arkansas is no longer back woods state, but is in the fore front of civilization and advance ment. She produced the great est constitutional lawyer in the government, Augustus H. Gar land. She produced the greatest soldiers of the Confederacy, Pat Cleburne and Thos. Hineman; the head of the Great Mystic Rite that binds all mankind to- gether, the poet, philosopher and statesman, Albert Pike, spent his boyhood, young manhood, old age in Arkansas. Arkansas is one of the few states in the Union that are absolutely free from debt, with half a million dollars in her treasury. For variety of soil and climate she is unsurpassed and unexcelled; her coal, her asphalt, her fruit, her cotton, her grain, her hospitable and kind people make her the Mecca for homeseekers and cap- italists.

COUNTING UPON COTTON BALES
Americus Looks for First One In Two
Weeks.

If we can have a period of fair hot
weather Americus warehouses will be
handling new cotton bales in two
weeks, or three at the farthest. The
grown bolIs are visible now and only
need hot sunshine TO crack them and
reveal the heecy contents It is the
general opinion that Americas will re-
ceive several bales before the middl e
of August, if not during the first week
August 10Th is the earliest fist bale
date here in recent years, but the crop
this season IS a little more advanced
than usual. And the "first bale" will
usher in a season of great prosperity
for AmerIcus-one of the best business
seasons in her history.

An Amerlcus woman, spinste- of

thinks that it is mistake to suppose
men would be more domestic if thti
wives should feed them better. She
says a highly fed man becomes so
