WATCH THE LARGE AFFAIRS.
Business Man Makes Mistake in Be
 ing Smothered in Detail.

When you are so buried in the de tail of your business that you cannot get clear. sharp view of your affairs in all their relations, you are in dan ger of failure. No great general ever takes a gun and goes with his soldiers into the thick of the fight, where he would be so stunned by the noises, and so blinded by the smoke of bat tie that he could not watch the move ments of the enemy, could not see where his own troops needed rein forcements, or how to hurl his forces on the weakest place in the enemy's ranks. He must go where he can watch every movement of the armies. If you are going to be general in business, you must keep where you can get clear view of your affairs and know what is going on every where While you are buried in de. tail your business may be in dan gerous position. from which you could extricate 1t if you knew the exact sit uation Many a man fails in trying to be a general and private at the same time.-Success

 "The work Of the present assembly is too familiar to all to need special mention.
 "This session elected another U. $.

0'NEIL-DELONCy WEDDING.
Prominent Young Couple Married at the
 Episcopal Church Last Night.
Thou art all far my beloved. !"

Thou art all fan my beloved"
 Christ Episcopal church was crowded last night to witness the marriage of Miss Ethel DeLongy, the eldest daughter of Dr. and Mrs. F. E. DeLongy, to Norman K. O'Neil. the we'll known and popular young business man, vice president of the Lochriege Dry Goods Company. Trailing vines, potted plants and fragrant roses tlent their beauty to the scene. Ben Shaver and Hal Norwood acted as ushers.
 Promptly at 8 o'clock the vested choir came ia singing the wed- ding chorus, Miss Edna Easter day presiding at the organ. Dr. DeLongy, rector of Christ Episco- pal church. followed and at the close of the bridal hymn Miss Gertrude De eLongy's voice. beauti- ful both from cultivation aud the depth of love 1t showed for the sweet sister just embarking on her new life, rang out clear and sweet in "Tbe Voice that Breathed Ger Eden." Then the inspiring strains of Mendelssohn' $ wedding march broke the ex- pectant stiffness and calmly and with dignity the bridal couple walked up the aisle and stood before the Rev. Dr. DeLongy, and in the solemn and beautiful word of the Episcopal service, the twain were made one.
 The bride, always lovely, was doubly so last evening in her gown of white crepe de chine and white hat with dropping plumes. The groom in full evening dress, looking so proud and happy, was a fitting mate for the fair young girl, who by her loveliness of character has won all hearts to her.
 The service by the Rector, who in his blessing combined the love of priest and father, with mother, sisters and brothers uniting their prayers and best wishes with low iug friends. Surely the storms of life will pass gently over them.
 Mir. and Mrs. O'Neal will make their home ou Fourth street in a cottage which Mir. O'Neal had furnished In readiness for their reception.

Want Berry for Governor

There is some little talk of prevail ing upon Hon. James F. Berry, former governor and for twenty years United States senator from Arkansas, to become candidate for governor. It is understood that this matter has not been discussed with the old gentleman in any mar ner, and that he as yet knows noth- ing of the movement, which started some time ago to replace him in the position he held prior to going to Congress. And the most peculiar part of the matter is that men who have heretofore occupied both sides of the political fence in Arkansas, viz, Jeff Davis and ants-Davisites, are combining in their desire to make the statesman from Benton vile once more governor of this great state. There is no man in Arkansas today occupying warmer place in the hearts of the people than Senator Berry. and many be- lieve that his election would be as- sured with but the announcement of his candidacy.

 On account of sickness Judge Prickett was absent and V. w. St. John was selected as chairman of the meeting. Those present dis played great deal of interest in the subject and quite a lengthy session was held that resulted in an expression favoring the site offered the association by w. H. Cardwell.

 The Cardwell land is located one mile north of the business center of the city and on the east side of and next to the Kansas City Southern railroad track. Before the conclusion was reached favoriug this location mum Der of other propositions were pre- sented by the committee and by citizens present. The committee had looked at portion ot the Schertnerhorn fruit farm three. l fourths os mile east of town, and asked for proposition from him. Owing to the fact that 1t was set in fruit S5,000 was the price put on thirty acres.
 A. J. Powers was present and offered twenty acre tract, over mile northwest of the business center of town, at $60 au acre. J. l.. Horner offered to make a deed free to twenty acres of land I located near the Powers tract.
 After all the propositions had been presented, Mir. Card wells proposition was accepted. The Cardwell land being located on the railroad, arrangements can he made to have a train to and from from the grounds during the fair !.
 After a thorough discussion Dr. Davis made motion, which was carried by unanimous vote. that the Cardwel proposition be accepted and the site committee discharged, and that the chair man of the meeting should ap- polnt a committee to arrange for and solicit subscriptions to stock in the fair association, and that a -meeting be called at later date 10 form permanent organization.
