SIiaht Damage To Rice.

Reports from the rice fields of Lon. oke, Prairie and Arkansas counties, are to the effect that the recent rains and heavy winds damaged the rice crop about 10 per cent. The greatest damage is in the field5 which were unprotected by timber, but even in these sections it is declared the dam age will not be as great as to cotton in the same unprotected state. Around Carlisle 1t is reported considerable damage was done, but in the vicinity of Lonoke the damage is reported much less. From Stuttgart comes the report that the average loss to the rice throughout that section will be about 10 per cent. The greatest damage appears to have been done to the rice which has been cut and stacked in the field ready for thresh ing. In many instances the stacks were blown about the field and the rice scattered. In other cases the straw appears to have been damaged greatly and smelling resulted.

The fuse did not immediately ignite, when he remarked to his com panion who was short distance away that the stuff was mo good" As he uttered the words the stick of dyna- mite to which the fuse was attached exploded, winch caused the explosion of the other two. Johnson was literally torn to pieces Both legs and one arm were torn off, his body ripped open, his face torn off and his eyes blown out.

A Bumper Corn Crop.

The bulletin issued by the Depart ment of Agriculture at Washington re- lative to the condition of the corn crop, shows an average condition of 93 in Arkansas on October 1, against an average of 82 on the ten-year basis This means that the state will have the bumper corn crop of it's history, and instead of being buyer, will be a seller in the worlds market. Fig ures are not forthcoming from any source, however. that would give ac- curate information on the size of the crop in bushels in this state, because no records on the corn crop are kept by the states agricultural department or by any of the states commercial organizations

A Precious Wartime Re .ic.

Hanging in the window of the office of Col R. A. Little, 209 Scott street, Little Rock, is a sample of cotton cloth made in 1863 and sent to him by friends in North Carolina. The cloth was homespun, home dyed and home woven. In commenting on it, Mir Little said that it shows what some uf the grandmothers of the present genera sion wore at that date. Attached to the cloth is a poem, written in 1863. On the paper on which the -peen is. written is a watercolor painting of a lass of. the period in the costume of that time. The title of the poem is The Home spun Dress, A Dixie Girls Song" This song reads as follows:
 "Oh, yes, I am a Southern girl,
 And glory in the name. I boast of it with greater pride,
 Than glittering wealth or fame. My homespun dress is plain, l know
 My hats palmetto, too,
 But then it shows what Southern
 girls
 For Southern girls vii do.
 Hurrah. Hurah
 For the sunny South, so dear, Three cheers for the homespun dress
 The Southern ladies wear.
