years ago, after serving in the lower house of the Arkansas Legislature in 1891. He was at one time as- sistant prosecuting attorney of this district and later worked in the Pine Bluff post ocffie. Lucas was the first United State commits sioner ever stationed in Pine Bluff, being succeeded by A. l.. Burnett, who at present serves in that capac- ity at this place.
 In speaking of Lucas remarkable victory in the courts, the Chicago COnservator says:
 After litigation covering a per iod of almost ten years (which is short for patent case of it's magni- tude) the expenditure of about $25,- 900 on the part of the inventor, pat entee and owner, during the first three years of which about twenty five lawyers were tried and found wanting" in the essentials necessary to win this great case, the patentee discovered J. Gray Lucas, who, with him has fought and won, against one of the wealthiest corporations in the country, his great patent right case for infringement, in the sum sued for ten millions of dollars.
 'The last case was begun in the United States circuit court here at Chicago three years since by J. Gray Lucas for the sum mentioned, it be- ing the third of a series, the last two being by Lawyer Lucas; the first one for an injunction against this company, and the last for damages. Both of these suits were taken through to the courts of last resort

Mrs. Fred Dilley's Reception.

Amid surroundings more beautiful than an artists brush could paint, br mind could imagine, Mrs. Fred !. Dilleys reception took place Thurs day afternoon between the hours of ? and o'clock. In response to prettily engraved invitations, three hundred guests assembled at the Dill ley home to do honor to one of Pine Bluffs most popular young matrons The Dilley home on Laurel street is one of the most stately and beautiful homes in the city. The splendid plan work of tho house especially adapts it to entertaining, while the wood- finish, furnishings and other costly appointments are along most artistic lines.
 In the floral arrangement of yester- day there was not flower too many Or leaf out of place, all blending in decorative beauty of unsurpassed loveliness.
 The reception hall was aglow with crimson lights, flowers and decora- tions harmonizing most beautifully making a cheery picture of attractive and beautiful effect. The drawing room was in seashell pink and green with flower motif of "Enchantress' carnations, begonias, resting against sprays of greenery. The tulle draped chandelier was brilliantly lighted, the softened rays falling through flower covered globes. The mantel was drap- ed with smilax and flanked by neat clusters of pink carnations. This room served as the receiving room, Mesdames Fred l.. Dilley, Walter D. Buckner, M. A. Austin, H. G. Higgin- botham and P. P. Byrd composing the receiving party proper.
 The dining room in point of deora- tion was probably the most effective of all so perfect was it in detail ar rangement and so artistic as whole The colors chosen for decoration were white and green, wrought in white carnations, smilax and the rarest oi potted plants.
 sideboafds, mantels and buffets were veritable flower beds, studded with the fragrant, dainty white bios soms. Palms and ferns broke the con tour of the walls and the angles o the artistic room with their splendid furnishings. The candelier was il love-knots of white tulle, entwinet with garlands of smilax.

 sllvered radiance over the pretty scene.
 For the first time at reception gwen in our city, refreshments were served at individual tables. The ta
 bles' five in number, were covered i With green satin, overdraped with
 white lace. Upon each table rested uoedS Ql!M pellY 'gLqgIepueo Igl1dgo B tapers, and shades of the same color Crystal bowls held hints of the two colors. Coffee was served from an al- cove in the north window The coffee urn was presided over by Mrs. Wade H. Knox
 The musicians were stationed in the rear of the hall, and the program ren- dered was one of the prettiest fea- lures of the reception.
 The Dilley home is full of the charm of inviting coZy corners, all of which were arranged in the dain- tlest colors. One especially pretty and thoughtful feature of the affair
 was the presenting of souvenirs by
 the hostess to those who assisted her. Gauge fans, tied with crimson rib Dons, were given the debutantes who received at the door. To those in the receiving line were given carnations; and hand-embroidered doilies, while dainty Japanese trays were given those in the dining room
 The guest company numbered the elite of Pine Bluffs society, the re- ception being decidedly one of the most elaborate yet given. Followed along lines that could not be fashion ed outside of similar home, it will long be remembered by the guests present.
 The gowns worn were creations of the modiste's highest art Space does not permit of but a few. Mrs. Dil- ley, who is a striking brunette, was attired ill an elaborate imported cream lace robe, empire style, over chiffon, built over a princess founda- tion of taffeta silk. The trimmings were of pink cr/sh-roses and pearl beads. In her hair she wore a tiara of diamonds and carried shower bouquet of pink roses. Mrs. Higgin-
 botham wore white airline cloth, deliberately trimmed with valenciennes lace and ribbons. Mrs. Buckner wore white crepe de chene with lace and pearl trimmings. Mrs. Austin wore white chiffon with loose garniture Mrs. Byrd, blue liberty satin with lace trimmings.

Nez Perce Heard From.

Nez Perce is the greatest agricultu-
raj county in the state, is the asser-
tion that Is amply verified by the
returns from the state board Of equal
ization just made public. The total
amount of patented lands in the coun-
ty Is S35,S00 acres and the valuation
as fixed by the board is s5,014,S00.
This is nearly one-fifth OF the total
valuation of the patented acreage of
the state of Idaho.
There are in the aggregate 5,16S,617
acres of patented land in Idaho and
nearly one fifth of the whole amount
is in Nez Perce county. And the
county is greatest not only in amount
but in the value of its products. 1t
has the greatest acreage of tillable
lands and the greatest amount of farm
lands not needing irrigation Of any
county in the state, and in addition to
this It has irrigable lands and lands
redeemed by irrigation producing a
wider range of valuable products than
any other county in the state.
All fruits and cereals grown in the
northwest attitudes ranging from a
few hundreds of feet in the sheltered
valleys to few thousand feet on the
fertile uplands are to be found among
the products of Nez Perce county
growing in abundance and of prime
uuality.-Lewiston Teller.
